12/09/06 Geeks.... Lost, but not forgotten

[Jhalkias]

Thank you Angie. The only scary part is my brother. His hemoglobin was below 4 when I took him to the doctor, so half of where I am.

Amy is cooking me iron rich meals and making me eat Total cereal for snacks.

John, you will be in our thoughts, I knew Amy would have strategies.

Take care of yourself, John.

Angie, I don't know. Only PJ posted a date before this morning and I can't find the memo about the reunion. We will be there 6/21. Is everyone else on 7/26? I know that we would have to pay a lot more if we switched at this point. We got a SPH at $4800 with the 10%.

 

[Bella2000]

How is your sleep John? Do you snore? Sound like you aren't breathing to Amy. I know sleep apnea can be hidden in some of your symptoms. Have they ever discussed a sleep study?

Take care of yourself. 2009 has just be such a pill for everyone in the health area hasn't it. I am kinda done on having random things happen to me personally.

Sending you positive energy and sweet dreams of Alaska cruise. Cyber hug to Amy too - I can only imagine how that must feel on the partner side when we aren't ourselves.

I just noticed 46 days until our cruise. I suppose I had better look at transportation sooner vs later. I haven't booked a car for while we are at WDW and I haven't thought of what I am doing to get back and forth to the ship...makes note to self - "Self you gotta take care of that soon"

Carla, rental car rates are nuts for early november. We are doing the Nov 5th, Wonder and a 4 day rental is over $170 pre-cruise, then we looked at a 1.5 day to get back from PC and it was $125 both with budget.

Carla, John as this great machine, provides a very cool soothing sound to sleep to for the others in the cabin. I had awesome sleep on the PC cruise, it was way better then a white noise machine. Makes him look a little funny, but he can take it.

[Bella2000]

You are saving my tail today with the heads ups Pj - thanks! - but OY!

Hey I didn't realize - we'll be getting on the Wonder on 11/8 after you.

 

[pjpoohbear]

We should wave in the parking lot, although I have no clue how we are getting back to OKW, lol This is our bounce back cruise, got to love a cat 8 for 20 DVC pts@.

I was just looking at my points and thinking - hmmmmm

Good for Amy!!

You will sleep well on the TA. Dennis has the same noise machine and looks a little funny also!

We are always in point debt. We have to stop giving them away to our DD and DSIL. Always some occasion with them! Cruise in 2007 for college graduation, now 6 nights at WDW for their 10th anniversary.

 

[pjpoohbear]

I just went on the Castaway Club site and we are Platinum!!!! 10 done and one booked. So, I guess we will all be on the phone and on DCL website tomorrow morning to book 6/21......right?

Angie can I board with you and Dennis?

pj

 

[lbgraves]

Okay...who is sending the faxed request to IC for Palo for the group room? I will do it if noone else wants to.

 

[MrsMork]

pj

YES!!!! Do you want to have Palo dinner with us also? I can book that at 120 days. Tea? Brunch?

Lisa, we are not on the 6/21 cruise.

 

[lbgraves]

Lisa, we are not on the 6/21 cruise.

Neither are we. You haven't checked FB today.

I just sent in a request for brunch & dinner for the 7/26 cruise. I found the email from the Palo specialist that I received confirming our 2006 reservations.

 

[MrsMork]

Cool! I can't even find the Geek thing on FB.

Lisa,

So glad to see you made it with us too! I saw you saying 6/21 earlier and guess I thought that was with folks from your PC repo, and the date was set for you guys. Kim and I were burning up the email over the weekend, as Savannah has a skating competition in July, and did not want to miss until that was over. We also have Alex's graduation from Medical school and he will begin residency July 1 somewhere, so we felt 6/21 was bad all the way around. We decided on 7/26, Carla was emailing too, found out we could all link with me, and we went with it. PJ and Dennis followed suit - and V has not yet booked. She is waiting until December to book it.

Thanks for doing the Palo Res. As I count it now, we have Lisa, Mike, John, Amy, Carla, Carl, Dennis, Angie, PJ, Kim, Steve, Vanessa, John, and the two (I am assuming) people who have the other children. That makes 15. How many fit in that Palo room - I can never remember. If all 15 do not fit, we can sit at a 4 top outside with John and V, or with Kim and Steve.

I am also assuming both Carla and Kim will be concierge as they have booked Cat 3's for this cruise, so I "Wonder" if that will help.

When we count kids, William, Kaitlyn, Sophia, Savannah, Isabella, Samantha, Hailey, and I will assume two other kids from the other family. That makes the total group 22 if I am not mistaken, so we will have to see how to link dining together. That's more than the 18 for one station. Some of us are already linked on Main dining (Kim, Carla, and us). I also think all of us booked with DU.

Cool! I can't even find the Geek thing on FB.

No Geek thing Angie, just our individual posts . . . so . . . should I start a group there? I will do that and let you guys know.

 

[Jhalkias]

I am not sure if I did the Facebook thing right or not. I am not a Facebook expert.

If someone is, let me know if I did it OK

Doctor finally called today.

Colonoscopy Friday at 6:00 am.

I want that to be over, for among other reasons, she will not give me the iron I need until after that, and I am tired of feeling tired and weak. It is aggravating to me, and my patience is wearing thin. I am like a 90 year old man going up steps.
