Does anyone know if the shuttle companies have car seats available or is that an extra I have to carry? Whats the weight/age reqs in Florida? Same as here 6years or 60 pounds?

I am using Happy Limo and I am bring my sister down for the second part of the trip and she has a 2yr old and I called them and they have plenty of car seats so you may want to call them - Good Luck

favorite Christmas movie:" The Bishops Wife" with Cary Grant and Debra Carr. "A Christmas Story" too. What a cult classic.

Why have I been up since 3 am?

 

[Denise Escola]

Thanks Therese for the info. Will look into that. I got onto the DC main and saw the info for FL Tours also.

 

[dobelover]

I have already told my sisters I am still cruising (in case Mom can't go). We have the trip insurance but I will not use it, just tell DCL only one of us is coming.

 

[Denise Escola]

Sue, I do hope all goes well with her. I'll keep her in my prayers.

Sorry, the guys just don't understand the joy of laughing until you puke.

HA HA HA!!! The BIG difference in boy vs. girl puking is that girls will puke and be done with it. Boys turn it into some Oscar award winning death scene!!

Around here it goes something like this:

(if I'm sick)
Him: how are you feeling this morning?
Me: A little better now, but overnight I got up 6 times to puke.
Him: REALLY, I HAD NO IDEA YOU GOT UP!!!!

(if he's sick)
Him: cough, gasp, gag, heave, groan, wail, cough, cough, gag, howl.
Me: (shuffling out of bed): Did you need something? A cool washcloth? A drink of water? ANYTHING TO GET YOU TO SHUT UP SO I CAN GET BACK TO SLEEP??????

I've checked wtih other girl friends and it seems to be the same in their houses too.

Good Morning Cruisers!

Well, I slept like the dead. Sure got the workout yesterday as my job sometimes isn't just about fixing the equipment- we get a bi-annual delivery of hangers. A full semi-load of hangers. Thankfully, we store them in a semi trailer that's permanently setup, so it's just a matter of the driver backing his trailer to ours and sending them across on those rollerstake things. Then of course, the wind peels back a bit of the flat roofing on the high part of the building fascia. It was a rough day to say the least. Advil is my friend.

On the movies, besides what I've seen from everyone and what's been mentioned by Mary, I'd add one : The Fifth Element.

And around here, I'm the late one, but the partying usually is something gaming, usually America's Army. http://www.americasarmy.com game put together by the US Army, and free for all takers.

Movies you can watch over and over and over:

Princess Bride
Amalie
Miss Congeniality
Zorro (the one with Antonio Banderas)
Finding Nemo

I agree Princess Bride is a good movie. I got the book for the kids, and neither one would read it. So I did, just to see what the problem was. WEIRD book! The basic story line is the same as the movie, but the book has a bunch of extra rambling, including 100 pages of how the guy got the movie made. Strange????

I had a thought that really scared me. I mean, I'm still a bit concerned even though I realize it's not even possible that it could happen.

What if we all get together on the ship and.....oh, dread, I can hardly say it. ....um....what if we can only talk once every 60 seconds? ACK!! Wouldn't it be awful???? For example:

Stacey: Hi, Karen
Karen: Hey! How are you?
Stacey: ---opens mouth but words don't come out, looks panicked, checks the watch, taps her foot, rocks back and forth until finally.....she blurts out ----Fine, and you????
Karen: ---checking watch, turning red, looking uncomfortable, finally---I'm doing well, thank you!


ACK, does anyone know if "The Administrator" will be on this cruise???????????

Will get well cards from fellow DIS'ers cheer her? If so, please PM the hospital info!

Busy day today....the first of many. Nick has his FIRST rehearsal! That's from 12:30-2:30 downtown (30 minute drive, but must allow extra to get gas, money and find parking.) Then we're hitting an indoor play place afterwards for some fun and pizza. And at some point I have to swing by the library. Too much DISing, forgot 15 books were overdue!!! oops!

I'm not sure if I told you, but the other boy playing Christopher Robin (b/c our cruise conflicted with the final performances) is also homeschooled, so able to do some of the daytime shows too. We'll probably split 50/50, which means about 20 performances! Whew.

I am truly LOL here! Can't you just see it!!! Actually, when I was talking to Charlotte on my cell phone it was kind of like that. My cell phone was wanting a little break between each sentence, so I would no sooner start to say something when Charlotte would start to talk, and it would break up. ARRRRGH, lousy cell coverage down here in the boonies!
