12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 14

[MMcCarthy]

well CJS& his family & Sandy & her family is on their way now. Becka & family should be somewhere in Georgia. Brack & his family are somewhere along the east coast heading south. Lisa & her family, John & his family, Angie & Dennis & DGS, Vanessa & her family, & Penny are all already enjoying the magic of disney. Jill & her family I think are in FL. Patsy & her family, Chris & her family, and are still getting ready to leave.

 

[MMcCarthy]

I hope everyone got to pick up DMC. Dh is planning on bringing it. I think they might show it on the dumbotron during the pirate party. that would be cool

 

[MMcCarthy]

I guess I really am the only one here at this point.

for someon who doesn't post too much I sure am doing a good job

becka trained me well in the use of smilies

 

[MMcCarthy]

castaway cay is going to be so nice

I have never been to costa maya or cozumel. those should be loads of fun

formal night is going to be so special. I hope we can get a good picture made

I also have never been to palos. I brought a second long dress I figure I can wear to that dinner.

 

[MMcCarthy]

Dh is due home in about an hour. I am going to snag this last mini pirate and then really get to work

 

[MMcCarthy]

If the office calls, I am officially on vacation. It will be interesting to see how they handle themselves. my boss doesn't see any reason he needs to be in the office more when I am gone. he is going to learn a hard lesson. he is in the office for about 4 hours a week and that is it.

 

[MMcCarthy]

the are not happy. they hate when the suit cases come out. sometimes I wonder if kenneling them would be better but they get so nervous when we take them to the vet & groomer.

 

[MMcCarthy]

people are really going to get tired of my rambling. I really should have noted the first post where I started and the last one so that they could skip those when they try to catch up

 

[MMcCarthy]

I wonder how Karen did with the TSA

she & Andy really had some good scenarios planned

 

[MMcCarthy]

I hope John & Amy & Sophia are having a good time. Losing your mom is so hard. some people say it is easier to lose them when they are elderly. I don't think there could be any easy way to lose a mother or father.

 

[MMcCarthy]

this is the last post for a while. I might come back if I get the packing finished.

for all that are leaving soon, safe travels. see ya real soon

 

[MMcCarthy]

well packing is going well. I am to the meds & formals. I hate putting the formals in a garmet bag. I'm afraid they will look terrible when we get them out. Oh well. it has to be done at some point.

 

[MMcCarthy]

Chris are you still out there? I feel so lonely. I wish we were on our way but you know how it goes. DH has no time left until january because of our trip and one teacher said she really doesn't like seeing ds miss any more days so we decided to hang in here at cincy until the bitter end.

 

[MMcCarthy]

I guess I will give you guys hour by hour updates. still no DH. most items are on the coffee table waiting to be packed. I did remember our long sleeve castaway cay shirts and got them packed. I still do not have all the meds. I need to go to the pharmacy to pick up two more refills.
t minus lets say 4 hours

 

[MMcCarthy]

I just remembered I need to sync my pda. the battery will probably be dead by the time we return. I turned off all the reminders I remembered about. I was going to take it with us but decided I don't want to worry about losing it.

 

[MommyMinnie]

Hey Missy! I've been packing and cleaning the house. The laundry isn't done quite but it'll have to do. I look forward to seeing you tomorrow!

But, we are on the way and the lights are officially

"out in Georgia"

like nobody ever thought of that before!

 

[Chrisva]

Yes I am still here.. WE leave for the airport around 3...

 

[Bella2000]

well we are here. everyone overslept except me - I didn't sleep at all!I am waiting for DD to crash. The weather is cool. Let's put it this way - we did not pull off our jackets when we got into the jetway. It's I think low 60/high 50s. DD is not pleased that she can't swim.

 

[Bella2000]

My file didn't go across for work last night - urgh - so this morning I had to grab my laptop. I am not tweaking some things and hopefully will send this off and also see about sending my laptop back to the office. I do NOT want to be connected in any way with my work. DH asked - I thought you liked your computer. I said Yeah I do - my portable computer is the ibook. This is my work computer. I hope to run away from work for at least 7 days.

Have a great trip!
