Nevermind v -- I just read your response... I am jumping around all the posts, trying to catch up....

Okay, just a few minutes to say hello...

It's freezing here. We've been having a cold snap. Three nights now that we've been in the 20s, and that is COLD for California. Pipes are wrapped up, the pool filter runs all night instead of during the day... I've got a little ice rink on my back patio where the hose leak drips onto the concrete

Gotta run out to go grocery shopping today. My smoke detector just started beeping this morning (low batt) and we never keep those darn 9 volts around so I have to go shopping sooner rather than later before the beeping drives me crazy.

I got my winkflash order for my cruise photos and now I need to find some time to scrap I still have to go through the Snapfish account -- is everyone done uploading?

Well it is sounding more and more like the '08 reuinion cruise we have all been talking about is going to be the repo cruises. I guess that eliminates needing to work around everyone else's dates for me. I was a bit concerned about the 11/29 date anyway and I know we can't do a repo. We would prefer to do an Eastern next time so I think we will just look at the rates and dates when they come out in a few weeks and pick a date that we think would work best for us. It might be best to go on a different cruise anyway so I won't be a downer for you guys again....

Oh and I would so love to have sympathy for some of you with this cold weather but I just can't do it right now. Right now we are at 20 (our high for day) with a wind chill of 5. Tonight's low is 12 (wind chills 10 to 15 below). High for tomorrow will be a balmy 23 with a low of 10 tomorrow night. I guess when you have a few inches of ice/sleet/snow on the ground it keeps things pretty chilled.

Lisa - yes May for us....!! Great news about DH not saying no....I think it will be a wonderful trip!

I know this, because I am trying to get miles tickets. Delta releases them 331days out.

The girls are insisting that we go twice a year! They say we have to plan one for before this summer since we aren't doing the Repo now and October is too far away.

so like maybe end of June.....

 

[goofyforlife]

Another place to add to my list. If we are going to be here all summer, I need places to go!! So whose coming with me to visit with PJ this spring?

I call Shotgun......

but we'd have to stop at Niagara on the way up....

 

[pjpoohbear]

we are meeting at Niagara, lol! I haven't been in years and years, except to drive through.

YIKES!!! I'm not sure if May or August would work best for us.

Pick May Lisa....Pick May.... (May is not hurricane season)

I am going to have some work to do this week. I haven't been paying much attention to the repo cruise discussion outside of being a referee. This morning I decided not to make the decision not to go on my own. When I asked DH if he would be interested he asked how much. I figure that it will be around 6000 in the end for a cat 10. He didn't say no! YIKES!!! I'm not sure if May or August would work best for us. May weather wise and we could spend time in CA at DL for the first time for all of us. We could book cheap air thru alligient to FL. Maybe be able to use some of the tons of airmiles Mike has accumulated over the past 12 years to fly home. September would probably work better with school...just withdraw the kids from school in June and not reenroll them until we get back. They don't loose time that way and will just miss a week or so of review work. OY! Angie & V...you guys are going in May, right? I guess that we have 2 weeks to research & decide. We do have the dummy 2008 date booked onboard that can be transferred for the discount and the 12/1 still on the books to transfer for the additional deposit. IDK!!!

Lisa,

Did Disney announce the dates yet? Did I miss it? Or are we still speculating?

Your right, Kim...She is an adorable fluffball.....

She seems light in color....Are her parents light or is it the lighting?

 

[lillygator]

05/10-05/24 is the speculated date of the May repo...
