12/16/06 10-day holiday cruise Part 2

[KSDTink]

Can someone remind me -- I can't find the answer right now -- do I have the option of NOT giving DS sign-out priviliges in the club? He'll be 10 on the cruise, but a very immature 10, and I don't want him signing himself out of the club.

Yes, you have that option. I am still debating if I want to let my DD, who will also be 10 at the time, have sign out privelages.

Thanks Kat!

No debate -- he's proven several times in the last few months (and weeks) that he doesn't deserve that privilage...

 

[KSDTink]

Dee, sorry to hear that! I am thinking that with DD we may initially give her the ok and see how it goes. You can always take the right to sign out away.

Check your mailboxes, cruisers -- DCL just send me a "travel kit" for the cruise. Nothing in it I didn't already know about, but it makes it feel all the more real to get mail from them. Now just need to pay for the danged cruise.

 

[KSDTink]

Hey there yargrnhoj! Long time no see! You haven't updated Jen with your cabin number, dining time, etc so we don't know where you'll be on the ship yet!! We have been planning all kinds of things so if you want to join the fun let us know........

 

[PirateCutie05]

Please join us in an on-board game of tag, yargrnhoj! It will be lots of fun!! Just make sure that Jen gets your room number so we'll know which stateroom to tag.

 

[KSDTink]

No travel kit in my mail

Heidi - I love your Pirate Stitch!

So, should everyone be getting the travel kit from DCL, or only if you booked directly through them?

Hi Guys - We would like to be in on the stockings. I am not sure what the fish extenders are? Ok I have no idea. So if you could help me out that would be great. We would love to be involved.

I was wondering if there was anyway to make a list of activities or ideas on the website. Jen? As if you are not busy enough.

Anyway, sorry it has been awhile since last posting. My DS was bucked off the horse last wednesday night. Not that big of a deal scratch on the elbow and he got back on. The horse is 16.1. DS is 7 yrs., a big 7, 54" tall & 102 lbs but still only 7. Oh and after a couple of tears, a "that was kinda fun mom" rolls right out of his mouth. Which leads me into the next "not-so-dull" Saturday night at the Lusk Home.

DS decided he wanted to sell some toys to make some money. Thank Goodness. ONLY Child can you say LOTS of Toys. You know the kind of stuff that should have gone a couple of years ago. Little Tikes stuff. So a lady came to pick up some things and she was talking with us about the animals, horse and goats. DS decided to show her is impressive bike riding skills. Well he crashed. Helmet did nothing to stop the rocks to adhereing to his face.

It looked all clear when we finished plucking pebbles from his face and mouth. Teeth still in tact and no broken nose -- UNTIL we looked down and blood was running down his leg. Needed stitches in the knee. So I loaded him and DH into the car to go to ER. Boy they know us well. On the way, DH says he feels like he is going to pass out. Remember it has been hot here as every where, but we are not used to it.

Get to the hospital take DS in, turn around to go check on DH and he is collapsing in entrance way of the hospital. The nurses went running. At least he got us in the short line to be seen. Except it was two admits instead of one.

Long story cut alittle short. DS leg will be fine. DH blood pressure was 77/46 and he fainted from the heat and stress. But he too is fine. So that is three we should be good for awhile huh?

Can you say bubble wrap?

Oh my gosh...I hope everyone's okay! Sounds like you guys had one bad week.

Morning everyone! Thanks Carol. The moment I saw him...I had to have the pirate Stitch. I have so many Stitches it's insane! My one friend gave me TWO for my birthday last year. My favorite, besides my pirate one , is the one I got while I was in WDW in January. They still had Christmasy stuff left over from December and they had the CUTEST Stitch with a halo and angel wings. And of course I had to get it because I'm a perfect little angel.

I started something like that and had it posted. I cannot remember the address it is at but I will try to find it.

 

[KSDTink]

Here is the home page. I haven't gotten very far because no one has gotten me info on what they are doing. Nor have we discussed times for the ornament exchange, etc. But here is what we have right now:

Angela, you poor thing!

I hope everyone is alright now. Be grateful DS was wearing a helmet -- it would have been much worse otherwise!

MY DS wiped out on his bike on Labor Day 3 years ago. 10 stitches on his face, and the doctor was saying that if it weren't for the helmet, we would have been having a completely different conversation... So he never argues about helmets and bikes any more...

PD your way so that all of your family stays OK!

Hey Kat, just looked at your little list and I can add some of my excursions to it. On St. Maarten, my sister (Holly) and I will be SCUBA diving and on St. Lucia I will be doing the horseback riding excursion (hopefully my mom will be doing it with me ). Holly and I are contemplating doing the Key West SCUBA and the St. Thomas SCUBA but we aren't 100% sure yet. As soon as Jen lets us know how much Key West will be, I can let you know! Oh and also...I don't think I've seen it on the Antigua DCL excursion list...but Holly and I were going to do the Pirate excursion...does anyone know if that's still available?
