Hi All, Doin' the Doc Dance for my Jan 28 cruise!





Sue

Yay Sue! Doing the dance for ya!

Kat, I believe the kids did their own picture, which is why you really don't see kids in this one. There were actually a lot more kids with this group than what you see here.

Seriously, out the entire photo I only recognize about 10-15 faces and of them I only remember about 10 names.

I see Jeri (DIS name: Juletime) and Henry who were our table mates. They signed up for the '06 10 day, but I know they were wait listed for one of the repo cruises. I wonder if they are still coming? They made our Christmas Eve Dinner so special by Henry decorating and bringing all things that had to do with X-Mas customs from his country. What a night that was. Denise will remember the SHOTS!!! Some of us had one too many!

Look, look, a DOG in the picture.........

I'm not sure what the new rules might be either, Kat. I found a pretty recent thread on the main board and it didn't say anything had changed. I had planned on shipping down a case of wine to the ship beforehand (maybe order from ABC Liquors to make it easier). I had bought a couple of bottles from Shirley last time. She really didn't have a great selection and I ended up not caring for the ones she sent so it was kind of a waste. Besides, a couple of bottles wasn't enough to make a difference in the bar bill in the end anyway .

I offered the shipping instructions to a DCL cruiser on another board and someone replied that they would check the info with DCL... According to their subsequent post the "official" DCL response was that things could no longer be shipped to the ship but I don't know who they talked to (our friend Kelly at the warehouse? (321) 799-9100)? or some out-of-the-loop CM???)

We might have worn them out on the repo cruise...

hmmm, looks like plan B may be in order

Congrats on the Doc Dance, Sue :thewave:

Well, I just spent the most boring five hours getting re-certified for my CPR/Child First Aid. This one lady just kept blabbing and blabbing about her personal experience of every medical problem that was gone over in the class. I swear, she made the class go an hour longer. Wanted to strangle her.

Just stuffed my dinner down in about 3 seconds and am off to bed

'night, 'night all

 

[DCLgodess]

hey all. survived 2 easy mid-terms yesterday. we have 90 minutes for each mid-term. My astronomy had 200 questions!

US is going to be SOOOOO HARD! lol. i know it is. but if i don't post tonight, i died taking the test. lol. toodles.

Mary Ann, don't ya just love those folks? I was at a soccer league board meeting last night that was an hour longer than it should have been because some "maroon" kept questioning every little detail. I finally moved over by him and threatened to throttle him if he asked another question. ha ha, he giggled. My reply-"Do I look like I am smiling? I am missing Lost season premiere." That show will make you strange.

Oh yeah- "maroon" is a Bugs Bunny term for moron.

Well, I know several grads of that school who hate their purplish hot dog-shaped mascot (the Maroons) and it is rather odd not to hear of protests over a mascot that Webster says is a fugitive black slave...Oh, well, Bubba probably doesn't know....

 

[karaeric]

Okay, so I cannot resist with gaRry off to WDW...

tee hee...TOP!!

Thank you,Sweetheart! Mom has been moved into an assisted living apartment and is doing really well...No more special bus to schedule and catch at a specific time for a Dr. appointment, no more grocery shopper to call, no more money to fumble with, no more up mobile home steps and down mobile home steps...Her thinking is much more clear and she's even telling jokes...

Now all I have to do is drive to California and empty her mobile home (estate sale, anyone?) and sell it. Good deal for someone who wants to live near the beach and lives on a fixed income but a pain in the rear to find them...
Otherwise I'm SO thankful that she's doing better....
and thanks for asking!

Yep, every time I go to a meeting, there's always ONE that LOVES to hear themself talk. And I know what you mean about being late for Lost. I stopped going to PTO Meetings at the beginning of this year 'cause they're on Thursday nights and it just interferred with Survivor. Priorities, ya know . Funny you should bring up Lost. I just ordered the first season on Netflix. Gotta keep myself busy watching something 'till season 2 of Desperate Housewives gets released .

Speaking of PTO...I'm off

 

[DCLgodess]

i am not into that show, lost. It looks to me like a hyped up reality show gone wrong. I am more a crime show girl. I only watch CSI, CSI: Miami, Law & Order, Law & Order: SVU, and NCIS. don't watch much else because i am usually riding horses the rest of the time.

 

[KatHuss]

CSI, ER, House and Medium for me. Who has time to watch tv??? Heck, I have two shows that I taped this week and have no idea when I will get a chance to watch them.

DD is selling girl scout cookies, anybody want to buy some? I hate cookie time beause it is always the parents who end up doing the selling, not the girls. They don't want the girls going door to door anymore. Heck, I still have 4 boxes in my freezer from last year!! But they are doing something new. They are promoting sending cookies to the troops and if someone buys a case (12 boxes, $36) they are giving cards that show a tax-deductible donation was made in that amount. That is kind of cool.

It was 58 and sunny here yesterday, gorgeous weather. I woke up to thunder this morning! It was 50 and pouring rain when I came to work and they say that by tomorrow morning we could have 1-3 inches of snow!!!

Oh well, back to work, I guess.

 

[karaeric]

We watch most of the same stuff Jen! All three CSI's, NCIS, Law & Order SVU. Then tack on Scrubs, Survivor, House, and Grey's Anatomy. Thank goodness for TIVO!!!

Good morning all, and HAPPY FRIDAY! Anyone else have a three day weekend?

Hey Kat, how're the mid-terms? You done now?

 

[justmestace]

That's funny....we all watch the same shows....and other than Survivor, those are the only shows I watch. I have to wrestle the remote from Jay just to see some of those! He watches anything on the History Channel....and things like "Amazing Stories of the Building of the Tallest Skyscraper". And he wonders why I'm on HERE all the time!

We had a chilly day yesterday, I think it only got to 70°.


HAPPY FRIDAY!

 

[KatHuss]

Woo hoo!! My 400th post on the DIS and it is on our board!

Stacey, 70??? I wish!!

No, I don't watch Survivor or any of the so called reality shows. DH watches House with me and then he will watch things on Discovery or History channels that have to do with WWII, guns, cool building projects, etc.

Poor DD. I picked her up from Latchkey yesterday and she started to cry when we got in the car. A couple of girls that she thought were her friends (she was "best friends" with one of them several weeks ago) had been bullying her. She said they kept following her and calling her names, grabbing her, etc. She wouldn't tell the teachers because she is afraid she will get bullied more. Ugh. I didn't go through that until I was in 7th or 8th grade but I feel her pain. Kids can be so cruel, can't they???

 

[magiroux]

Hey Kat, I'll buy some of your cookies if you buy some of mine . In our area it kinda stinks because we live on the line of two different GS Councils. Well, our council saw fit to raise the cookie prices by 50 cents a few years ago and the other council didn't. So I always get, "You're charging to much for the cookies", or "Why are your cookies more?" I have to explain the same thing about 20 times a year. I love the ones that say, "Well, I'm gonna buy them from so and so 'cause they're cheaper", with my dd standing right there. Every year I get at least one that says that. Umm, no thanks to the cookies would do .

We must be getting your weather a day later. Yesterday was 50, today is supossed to 58 and tomorrow is supposed rain. January thaw is here. I'm going skiing again for Feb break. I NEED SNOW HERE!!!!!!
