Virgil - Are we the only East Coast night owls? I had to have some type of adult conversation after typing rosters and rosters of Tee Ball names......and Coach Pitch names.....auuughh!

Stacey - Isn't your DS playing ball?

Well, I'm slowing down.....may have to call it a night. Hope the ER quiets down for you Virgil. Night Stacey - glad you got the email!

Well, it made me happy, anyway.


Goodnight

and


Good Morning All!

 

[justmestace]

We have a new female pirate....but I won't name names!!

Yes, DS is almost 11 and he's in the Majors. Pretty scary stuff sometimes. Two injuries tonight...but no ER's. Sorry Doc.

 

[GlenelgMom]

Hey Virgil.......does your son know who Brooks Robinson is? If so, would he ever want a personally-autographed baseball from him? Someone (and I won't name names either) has a DH that plays golf with him on occasion. He's a truly nice man and would do it for your son in a heartbeat.

 

[GlenelgMom]

Okay, now I KNOW I'm tired - forget that last post Virgil.......when I saw the pirate logo I thought it was you. Stacey, that message was meant for you. Yikes......it's bed time for this

Good Morning Everyone!

Happy Thursday!

Charlotte - I've added Carson to the birthday list. Please send me an e-mail with info on the rest of the family so I can make sure to include them in future issues.

Stacey - not sure why you are having troubles again. Do you use AOL? Lynda was having problems as well. I think you need to minimize AOL and use Internet Explorer to view. If you are still having problems drop me a line and I'll send you a direct link. BTW - DH gave me the NASCAR tape last night. I'm going to the post office today to get it out to you.

Lynda - never got an e-mail from you so if you did send one please send again. I've added my e-mail address in the newsletter.

If anyone has an e-mail address saved for me that has Prodigy in it please delete. We no longer have that address. Use the e-mail or pm button below.

Did you guys see this?

DCL announces new Magical Gatherings. Disney Cruise Line has addressed the issue of family reunions and other large gatherings. To go along with the Magic Gatherings in the parks the Cruise Line announced Wednesday that effective Thursday April 1st groups of 15 or more will be able to have a Magical Gathering on the ship. Each Magical Gathering group will be able to book a private lunch in Animators Palate and have an appearance by the main Mouse Mickey.

To plan your Magical Gathering call DCL direct and have your groups reservation number(s).

Doesn't this sound great?




























Of course it does, but since it starts April 1st you know it is just an April Fools joke

Good Thursday Morning Everyone!

Charlotte - got your email and sent one back. And don't worry about gaRry, I already have a bottle of MadDog 20-20 set aside for him. I ordered a rolling wine carrier for us to take on trips the other day, so I have something special to bring it in. We got tired of lugging the bottles around in our carry ons.

Mary - great newletter again! Thanks so much for all your work.

Okay, I hope this does not make all of you jealous buuuuttt...

Only 8 more days til we cruise!!!!!!!!

Sorry, I just had to do that.

Everyone have a great day.

LeiLani,

I so wish we were cruising with you! It seems like December just can't get here fast enough. I'm sure I'll feel better when we are on the road to WDW at the end of May. Right now it just seems like everyone is going on vacation but us.

Have a wonderful time!

Charlotte, you are definitely a night owl! I'm lucky to stay up for cruise chat on Fridays. Weeknights I'm in bed by 9:30 or 10 at the latest.

Virgil, I was thinking about you as I sat in the Children's ER. We were there from 0430 to 9:30 pm. I kept thinking "Now I know Virgil could get us out of here quicker than this!" Actually, the ER docs were great. We got to see the evening shift come back on duty, and they were really surprised we were still there and not on a floor. I know our case was pretty complicated. Most of the rooms turned over at least 2 or 3 times while we were waiting. They sure do see a lot of people there.

And as far as packing, my DH always takes way more than I do! Although I do have to remember the little things for him. I get that "honey did you bring me my ....... " a lot! I usually pack by the outfit. For the kids, I load them up in gallon zip locks (shorts, shirt, socks, undies) so they just grab a bag. Last trip, I brought tennies (wore them on the plane), tevas, dressy sandals, and one pair of casual sandals. This trip, I'm thinking of leaving the tennies behind. I think I can walk the deck in my tevas! If it wasn't for formal night, I could ditch the dressy sandals too! Less is better, at least for me!

Have a great day!

Sure guys, the 1 night I go to bed early and you have to stay up late talking and make me read way toooooo much in the morning .

Charlotte, don't worry about gaRry kicking you off the thread for the wine talk - I'll take care of him for you at WDW .

We are also of the 'pack an extra suitcase' crowd. But then we will be driving so we will have lots of room .

 

[justmestace]

Yes, we have definitely missed GaRry, the one under the table! Too funny.

Charlotte...we were just talking about Brooks Robinson the other day. Funny you should mention that. The answer here is YES YES YES!!!

Mary...I am on AOL. I will do the internet explorer thing and see if it works. The March issue and pics eventually came up, though, which is weird. NASCAR tape...Yippee!! Thanks!

LeiLani....just keep rubbin' it in! Really, though...you are going to have sooo much fun...will be thinking of you the whole time!

Missed you jilljill!!! Lots and Lots. Down side to being up late (besides not wanting to get up this a.m...)....I spent another bit of my winnings instead of sharing them! Darn that E-Bay. It has me in its hooks.

Have to run. Payroll, end of the month, and end of the quarter. Funny how it all comes at once

 

[justmestace]

Mary...Internet Explorer worked for me! Thanks!!! Great job, as always. You are the Queen. (Yes, I know that's a princess, but I can make it a queen if I want to!)

 

[jilljill]

Stacey, I'm on AOL too and the newsletter was fine for me. Maybe the 'slimy things' have attacked your newsletter link so you can't read it and see the new pics .

I really need to finish packing and then get ready to leave. But it's so gloomy out and rainy that I don't want to drive in it . Oh well, must get ready. But the upside is that I don't have to be mom and wife for over a day . Not that I would seem happy over that or anything.
Gotta run - hopefully, I will get a chance to check in a few times over the weekend. Will see how the computer is running at the beach .

 

[WDWLVR]

I think you all have me on ignore - no one got me April Fools joke ... sulking back to work.

Back to the how formal do you plan on being question - any DH/DS's getting tuxes? Lynda - Is Cash? Not sure it's worth doing - any thoughts? If you've all talked about this earlier, sorry. Still playing catch up.

Do you mean is Cash getting a tux? Nope. He has a full wardrobe, including a bright yellow life jacket that makes him look like a big hairy bumblebee with a tail...but no tux. He does have, however, a couple of "dress-up" outfits for holiday occasions...

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!!!

Hi Mary.......I got the April Fools joke.

You said you wanted feedback or suggestions for the next newsletter.

Well here's mine.

For the first time DCL people..........how about a checklist for things to bring on board ( I'm sure there are some things that the average 1st timer may forget to pack)

Thanks again for all your hard work with the newsletter.


A Triple F

 

[afff]

I thought of some things.............2 way radios and mini Christmas tree.

Anything else

Oh yea........Christmas stockings


A Triple F

Mary, great job on the newsletter! And I totally missed the April Fool's joke. I started this job exactly one year ago today, and I'm guessing that's the biggest April Fool's joke of all!

Mary, for next months newsletter, if you'll send me a reminder, I'd be happy to write up something about shipboard stuff (maybe hairbraiding, or movies or cabaret shows, or something like that, just let me know the subject).

And whoever asked about how formal? I've got several nice formals from work related dinners, so I'll probably wear a floor length gown, but DH will probably just wear a dark suit and tie. I'll probably find a dinner jacket for DS from somewhere (lots of kids stuff on clearance!), and DD will wear a dressy easter type dress. My in-laws will probably go with a dark suit and an easter type dress. I offered to find a formal for my MIL for her birthday and she said she didn't want one. So I got her capris and a nice top instead.
