~Lisa, I'm so glad all is well!!!!!

~Angie, I have been AWOL form here. I accepted the job at church!!! I'm really happy

Have a great day everyone. Go out today and do something wonderful for someone you don't know!!!

YIKES!!! I just found out that the code 300 at the kid's school yesterday was real!!1 That is their danger drill. They sent a notice home about it though...and they don't do that when it is just a drill. DS thought that it was really cool because all of the first graders were on the back playground & he got to go thru the bottom of the window into the 4th grade's classroom. A drunk driver crashed behind the school & jumped the fence (into the playground area where the kids were). Everything is fine & they arrested the guy before he got around to the front of the school. Thank goodness the police got there so quickly!

 

[MrsMork]

Thanks, Mark! Lisa and Penny were good enough to fill in in your absence!

 

[MMcCarthy]

My family & I are going on this cruise. We have been on one three night and one four night cruise. I though I saw on another post that there was a website about this cruise. I saw the navigator update on the other post. I was just wondering where you find the navigator. Also, if any of you have good excursion ideas for a 11 DS and 15 DD at Costa Maya? Thanks for any info.

 

[BuzzBoyMom]

Oh Lisa - that doesn't sound good. Isn't amazing that the kids just think it is all fun and games. Hope all is well. So when does school end for you guys? Sounds like you need some serious time off!

 

[lbgraves]

Welcome, MMcCarthy! You can find all of the info needed for the website in the first post of this thread. Just email me your info, I will add it to the site and send you the link. Regarding the excursions, I think that most of us are taking a wait & see attitude for Cozumel. It didn't impress me the last time we were there & if it is still a mess from the hurricanes we will probably turn it into a relaxing sea day on the ship instead of dealing with the tenders. There are still alot of things that are not up & running. Of course we are just starting another hurricane season. We don't get our hearts set on anything this far out because who knows where the big ones are going to hit this year. We have seen CC after a hurricane...it was brown & didn't look quite the same but it didn't stop us from having a wonderful time there. DCL cleans things up alot faster than the other islands though.

Karen, the kids got out today. Part of me isn't happy that they will be here 24/7 with me but then there is part that is happy to not have to get them up every morning & deal with DD's crying about how terrible school is.

Lisa,

I found three bags at a store near me...... (that was all they had.)
(I'll still take the two that you got for me.)

My DD has two more days of school and to be honest, I'm glad to have a couple months off from them. (now I just have to tackle Devon's summer schedule and last night my DH tells me that DD doesn't want to do poms & baton anymore. So I told her fine but you have to find another activity that will provide some exercise.)


Next part

Karen,

If you still want the three BB's, I will get these to you. (we're going up to PA through your way next weekend . I could meet you at Brewsters on Sunday the 19th probably around 3ish.)

Let me know.......

 

[pjpoohbear]

Who was in contact with David and Ian in Costa Maya? Is there still a group tour in the works, so confused, lol.


Penny

 

[MrsMork]

We were interested in a shorter ruins tour at Costa Maya also.
We too are planning on Cozumel being another sea day. Not much interested in going there, doing that.

WELCOME, MMcCARTHY!! Glad to have you aboard.

 

[dutch_girl_scout]

Hey all--You guys are the chattiest (is that a word?) bunch. I haven't read your thread for awhile, thanks for the birthday greetings. I got SOOOO excited for you when I was reading the live report from the first double dip. You only have 6 months to wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The pregnancy is going good, my countdown says that I'm 44% done, only 157 more days!

Take care everyone!

 

[lbgraves]

Sorry, there is a problem with our splitter again. I answered but got knocked offline. Here is the info I have so far. The bus crashes stopped everyone from talking about it.

Once you know ,how many are coming if you wish you can pay us throught our pay/pal system

the cost per person are 43 usd ,children under 12
:40usd; elder people 40usd.
By that time ,also we might depart from the port but to
be honets I still negotiating the prize they want ,in case i reach a
good deal ,I ll let you know so will have another option.
the tour to the ruins could be abbreviated it also we can take you to see the village of Chacchoben(we are in mainland),this tour will last the most 4 hours,

 

[lbgraves]

Darn! Brack is offline moving now. I now have the cable from the wall connected to the modem & this thing is just flying along. If it is hooked up thru the splitter...which I bought a couple months ago...it is offline. Does anyone know a top of the line splitter to use?

 

[lbgraves]

HEY!!!! Where did my little sail boat go??? Hmmm...it changed from a 12 month countdown to 6 months. This one is different. LOL!

For all the newcomers, after you get the link to the site be sure to check out the DIS meet info. There is also a page with the info to join the Cruise Scrapbook Swap that Penny is organizing.

 

[MrsMork]

Also for you folks that have recently joined: PM me if you want to sit in the same area for late seating. We can link reservations and be on the same rotation and in the same area/at the same table. Lisa will do the early seating.
