Angie, :Hugs: the circle of life sometimes sucks!

I am joining Lisa on Early seating, sorry! Finally called DCL about it last week, eek. But thanks all the same.

Anyone who doesn't know what we are talking about with linking dining.....everyone is welcome to link to either the early or late seating group. We can't do anything to help get you switched from one to the other though....it might help to have a link request in. PM me for the resie info if you have early dining and Angie for late dining.

Also, with the changes in the group it looks like every family now registered on our site will have one of the velour Christmas stockings outside their door.

I'll get Dennis on it this weekend!

 

[MrsMork]

Thank you all for the good wishes and prayers. Penny is right, it is the circle of life and one drawback to having friends is loosing them eventually. The experience of loving them is worth the pain of loosing them though.

The experience of loving them is worth the pain of loosing them though.

Amen.

Hi everyone,

I'm still here! Even though I have not posted or read for weeks. At some point I will need to get caught up, but it may take me awhile to do that.

Sounds like we have lost some people - sorry to hear that.

Sounds like there is a meet for Friday night - glad to hear that

I may finally be wrapping up an over 8 month union negotiations . . . within the next two weeks the employees will be voting on their tentative agreement, and I am keeping my fingers crossed - especially since we are leaving for a 12 day WDW and VBR vacation on the 18th - why do my vacations constantly hang in the balance of these negotiations?

Hey Jordan, going to see the Indians play the Bosox at the Jake tomorrow night in a suite with the whole family courtesy of the law firm that handled our negotiations! Wahoooo!

We had a busy week this last week with Pascha (Orthodox Easter) - lots of quality time in church at the biggest celebration of the year for us. The Orthodox church is often called the church of the resurection, and we have services throughout Holy Week.

My mom is out of the hospital, but still cannot walk due to severe arthritis and weakness in her one knee. She is still using a catheter. Amy's mom is living with us while she recuperates from knee replacement surgery - because we have facilities all on one floor. The puppy gets "fixed" tomorrow. Our school levy is on the ballot next week. Oh, and did I mention Sophia lost one of her front teeth this morning?

Lisa, let William know I yanked it with dental floss as it was hanging by a thread just like his was!

Hope everyone has been well, and had a joyous Easter!

Christos Anesti! (Christ is Risen!)

Hi, Jenna!

 

[MrsMork]

Good Grief, John!! Makes me tired just reading about how busy you have been. Prayers and good wishes for your Mom and MomIL.

 

[pyramid2000]

Angie, hope you had a better day today.

John, your life makes my life seem simple!
I hope your DM and DMil good heakth. My DM had knee replacement surgery about 3 years ago. Both knees at the same time! It's amazing how fast one can recover. About six months after DM's surgery, my sister-in-law's stepmother actually passed away after knee replacement surgery (the following day in the hospital)from a clot. They hadn't gotten her out of bed yet! My DM always stresses getting right out of bed like they did with her.

~Jordan, here come the SHARKS!!!!!!!! Would that be cool to have the Ducks and the Sharks?

Just wanted to drop a line and tell you that my six yo maybe a little off (o.k. not really, just funny some times.) My DB is having a 40th birthday party this saterday and we have been trying to figure out what to get him. He is a big ketchup junkie, so to me 40 bottles of it sounded good. Spencer threw in 40 Hershy candy bars, (My DB brings them one just about every time he comes, and this way he would get some back) DB, DD 16 said he really likes snickers (I think she likes snickers better than plain chocolate) So Little Wyatt pops up with well I'm going to get him 40 worms. Come on I know fishing season opens on this saterday and we can't go tell sunday becouse of his party but worms wyatt. Yep but I'll buy him a new pail to put them in. Wyatt really likes to fish and we have a great pic of him pretending to take a bite of a fish head. My DB lives right up from a lake maybe he thinks he will get to go on opening day after all, who knows. But he started saving worms in a box the other day when we were weeding our tomato spot in the back yard, I bet we will be digging for the rest of the 40 before saterday. He'll have to make him his own card and buy a nice gift bag to put it in, I guesse it is hus idea. But still Worms.

I am planning on going to the meet the night before and thought we would have dinner in DTD and then my kids could head back to our room. DSD 16 1/2 will be going with us and I have told here already that she will be watching the boys that night. But maybe They could hang out with the rest of the kids. She could help out and then the boys would get to meet some of the other kids that will be on the cruise. I hardly ever drink and never stay up late, but If I could get everything packed that morning, we could do it. Mum

 

[lbgraves]

That sounds good. Strength in numbers. I tried to post last night but the modem kept losing the connection again. ARG!!! It sounds like you really need a vacation, John! Wyatt is a thoughtful little boy. I would have him package that...erh..."gift"...as well.

 

[klineyqueen]

Lisa - The web page looks great!!! Was the picture I sent you all broken up? I have a high speed internet connection and I wasn't sure if the picture came to you clearly. Anyway, the site looks great and thanks for all of your hard work!

Penny - I'm looking forward to the scrapbooking page.

I hope you are all having a great day - I'm off to play playdoh with my mini man!

 

[lbgraves]

Thanks! I have to save all the pictures as webready in order to not exceed the space limit on the website. Depending on the original resolution, some come out grainier than others. I think you guys look great!

 

[pjpoohbear]

I will post the google group page up when I get home tonight. I think we will leave the swap open until at least mid-summer to give any new cruisers a chance to sign up and we will know numbers early in August for the swap, which will be due on the Magic. The page will have the details for the swap in the welcome message.

Mum, you should take the DB to Wishpering Canyon Cafe, he will have a blast with the ketchup there, lol. And Wyatt can fish off the dock while you all eat, lol.
