Thanks tkd lisa.

I tried to end it all on there and I finally have. I feel it was just blown way out of proportion. Then some of the comments people said even after I said sorry made me feel worse. One in particular was "nobody knows you to like you or dislike you anyways" "we could all tell you were 15 right away" Like you said people dont read the replies and just keep on attacking and going nuts. I wish it didnt have to turn into somthing like it did. First time this has ever happened to me on here. Hope my repuatation is still there, cant wait want until the cruise. Only 3 more days of finals! Talk to you later,
Matt

I talked to GaRy today.

It looks like we are going to work out some diving before the cruise. Hopefully we will be able to make it to Blue Springs and see some manatees. It's sure is cold enough that they might be there.

Jim - that sounds amazing. Hope you guys have a great time!

The water will be 72 degrees. He has a 3 mill.

I hope he doesn't mind the cold.

You might want to loan him one of your beanies!! Keep that noggin warm, might help!

Either that or rent him a 5 mil wetsuit.

THE PIRATE PINS ARE HERE!!!

I'll have DD pack them up tonight as per everyone's orders and bring to the port with me!

They are great. They will be flashing everywhere out on the deck party! Can't wait to share them all!

Okay, I'm headed home, got some pirate work to do!

You figured it out. We are talking about cold cash, not water.

So let me get this straight. gaRry has 3 million dollars, but Kevin wants you to loan him 5 million. Wow I know scuba was expensive

Did Gus get an email/pm about the dolphin swim?

Thursday Morning it will be in the low 40's. I can't believe I am going diving, at least the water will feel warm.

GaRy and I are meeting at Blue Springs Thursday morning at 8 am to dive. Arrive at 8, in at 9, out at 10, on the road by 11.

He will than head to Sanford Airport to pick up the family. He will be all nice and clean from the fresh spring water.

Unfortnately, I have to go back to the office to pay for the cruise.

He came prepared with 2 hoods, gloves, and booties.

Just needs weights and tanks.

He is diving computer, no not a lap top, a wrist mount.

But remember, we only do this for our children. We get no joy out of hauling all this gear, planning the trips, training. We get joy out of watching our children.

The sacrafice we make for our children.

And where will the children be while you and Garry are diving with the Manatees, hmmm?

Alicia will want to see them, too, next summer.

Finally got home, have had a chance to sit down and catch up. Just in time to put dinner on the table!
I will be so glad to get on that plane! Don't know what I will do with four whole hours and nothing to do!!

I sent an e-mail to the Dolphin place. By the time I got home it was too late to call. In the past, they have answered e-mails at night...I hope so. I guess we'll just have to find a nice beach on Antigua! But I must say, I won't be too happy. Bummer.

I'll try e-mailing Gus. If I still have his e-mail address.

Going to check on dinner...back later.

Yeah, but getting out is going to be the killer!!!

Guys, not a confession, but I want to ward off thoughts you may have....

This dog has been a KILLER on me. I am beat up....literally. It will look like Mike beats me (and, being a physician, he'd know not to beat me in places that show!) Anyway, my legs are covered with bruises. One about the size of my fist!! It's Maggie! Either that or I have a clotting disorder I didn't know about. She has been in the habit lately of retrieving her balls and hard rubber bumpers and then running at full speed into my legs!! I've learned to wait till the last second then side step to miss her, but she has gotten me good already. Then there is the nipping when she gets ornery. I've got bruises on my legs AND my arms from that! Add to that the scab on my hand where she took a chunk out of me.

So, when you see me, please don't think Mike beats me! It's this %#$@ dog!! By the time 10 days are up, I should be healed up completely!!



And then yesterday during Nick's play KT and I went to the animal shelter they have set up in the mall.....and she confessed she'd be willing to give up Maggie for a beagle. Oh, how they must LOVE their dog!!!

That was the one and only activity we had prebooked and yes, we got a voice message that it was cancelled.

A gazillion and 4 times, to be exact. KT really needed to get away from there. She's SOOOOO sick of it. And tomorrow we HAVE to sit through it b/c our homeschool group is attending. Besides, I was backstage at the beginning of it and heard his first major goof up. I needed to get away....

He has two very similar lines....
His VERY first line is: Hello Eeyore, How are you??

One of his last lines is: Hello Eeyore, I see you've built yourself a house.

So...Apparently the actors were sitting around in the back before the second performance started and they were all joking about how they should just go in and do the last scene and be DONE WITH IT! They talked about it for about 5 minutes from what I heard. I heard Nick say (as his first line) Hello, Eeyore, I see you've built yourself a house!

So, they think, that subconsciously, Nick decided to go in and do the end of the show!! They all felt very bad that he goofed up....they figure had they not been talking about it, he'd have done it perfectly as always!

I found out something interesting.....In the final scene, Nick hugs Pooh and the lights go down...then they come back up for the curtain call. Nick told us the other day that while the lights are off (don't worry, it's not bad) Pooh always says to him "great job, Nick." Isn't that sweet??

ALso found out that on one of the scenes, Rabbit is backstage and he holds his hand up so that as soon as Nick comes off stage he can high five him. And then, later, Nick is backstage and holds his hand up so that as soon as Rabbit comes off stage he can high five HIM!

I love that they've all taken Nick under their wing like this.

 

[ohiominnie]

I heard Nick say (as his first line) Hello, Eeyore, I see you've built yourself a house!

Actually, this isn't true. I heard him go in and say "hello, Eeyore, I see you've built yourself......Hello, Eeyore, how are you?"

 

[ohiominnie]

Actually, this isn't true. I heard him go in and say "hello, Eeyore, I see you've built yourself......Hello, Eeyore, how are you?"

But I did tell Mike this was better than him saying the wrong line, crying, wetting himself and running off the stage!!!
