Hi everyone,

We got our pins today too, but still nothing else from the cruise. I'm sure one of these days the stuff will arrive.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Robin,

You'll be in the same town as my DS and DDIL! They really like Tallahassee, they're going to Florida State and working. It's about 4 hours to our house, which means just about that to WDW.

Renae

Hi Renae! My DD goes to Florida State! I think Tallahassee is beautiful, and the "community" where I am moving is all inclusive (sort of) Kind of like a little resort. They even have an "art of living" director who organizes all the social activities. I'm really looking forward to the somewhat short drive to WDW. I have never been there for the Holidays, and that will be the first thing I will want to do.......besides go on another cruise!

Hi Liz and Bill Absolutely! You guys were awesome next door neighbors! It's too bad all of us weren't on the same dining rotation as well! I can't wait to hear just where our 2007 cruise is going?

Kay,

The Chiropractor says I need an MRI, and to go to the Dr. This is getting old really fast. He says the disc is involved and used the 'S' word... such a bummer. I need a cruise!!!!

Robin,

Your community sounds like heaven! All inclusive... wow! What is your daughter studying? It'd be so funny if she knew my 'kids'. Sicili is studying math education, and Ben is working toward pre-med. Though right now he's studying how to get over heatstroke and a really bad sunburn from yesterday...

Robin,

Does the art of living person schedule scrapping crops???

WDW in Dec. is truly Magical. It's beautiful, musical, comfortable weather, and in the first 2 weeks, not even crowded. At Epcot, the cast choir and visiting celebrities do the most amazing show, and the decorations at the resorts is worth going to just for themselves. We love it!

I have room in my suitcase for you tomorrow. I'll pick you up and you can squeeze in. Or you can sit in the basket in my chair Crutches go with me this time also. Can't hardly walk from one end of the house to the other now.

Will probably give you a call tomorrow, hopefully. Am trying to meet up with Celeste. We keep missing each other on the phone. But sure we will make contact tomorrow.

 

[auntrenae]

Kay,

Sounds good. I'd love to hear from you before you leave. I want to talk to Celeste too. I'll have my cell with me if I leave home, but I plan to be here all day.

Renae

 

[moocow35]

Renae, actually yes there was a scrapbook thing not too long ago! I was thinking...shoot if I was only there now!

Yes, I'm very excited about where I am moving. Resort style pool, golf course, "town center" with specialty shops and restaurants. They have all sorts of community get together things, like movie on the green night under the stars, front porch decorating contests for Halloween and other holidays, wine tasting, they just had some huge thing for the 4th. Cookout, ice cream, parades and fireworks set off from central park lake. The list is endless.

Aimee is going for a BFA in technical theatre. She wants to be a stage manager. She will just be starting her second year there.

I hope your back feels better. I have disc problems. What I have found helps me, is the very first twinge of pain, I lay flat on the floor on my stomach, and put an ice bag directly on the back. I basically freeze it to death, but for me it does the trick. At work, I sit with the ice bag on my back all day. Usually by the next day I am good as new. I can feel your pain.

Robin

 

[auntrenae]

Robin,

You're so sweet. I'm living with ice packs and capzaicin rub. I just want to get back to my life, you know?

Onto lighter matters, it sounds like you have it made with all that stuff going on. It reminds me of the small town I lived in in Utah. I loved all that community stuff. Once you get moved in, make sure you get to those scrapbook classes and have fun. That's a great way to get to know people, doing creative things and talking about your memories in your pics. You'll have a great time! We'll be looking forward to seeing your front porch decorations, too!

Renae

Kay , ,, you had better take a sleeping bag. YOu never know when you might need one in the middle of the night. Maybe the hosts can fold towels into a sleeping bag that you could put outside of scessions. You know, sort of stake out a claim.
Bill

 

[ashleydoc]

We are obviously very lucky with our pins and Maps ,as I posted on monday,they were delivered by a very nice lady from DHL dressed smartly in Yellow,they were in a padded bag ,and the padded bag was packed in a thick cardboard box that would be impossible to bend.

SO DIsney is looking after us Brits.

Ashley

 

[ashleydoc]

Good morning Elaine for when you log on.

The coffee and Hot tea is ready.

Tony the weather is now the worst for years,it is dull and miserable every day and temperature about 64.Everyone is complaining what happened to our summer.

Good Morning Ashley!!!!!

Disney also packed our pins in a padded bag inside a thick cardboard box.

Thanks for the offer of coffee or hot tea but this accountant drinks neither...I know an accountant that doesn't drink coffee!!!!!!!

I'm sitting here with my glass of lemonade deciding what I want for breakfast....our thread was pretty quiet last night!!!!!

I don't think so this time. I have one suitcase and that is all. Casual clothes only. Only getting off ship in CC to mail postcards.

Going to try and find Celeste now.

 

[krdisneybound]

Bill: don't forget to order your hats.

UNLESS - you want to wait and see if they by any chance have them on the Wonder and I'll get them instead. Maybe that is an idea. They might be on the Wonder, you know. I'll call you tonight from the hotel and make sure you didn't order them from the vendor.

 

[3DAN]

Kay, I called the number which is Disney merchandising . They don't have the hats. They don't really know what they are doing. They referred me to call the number of the people that put the hats on the ship. TA DA , Disney cruise line.
It amazes me how dumb this organization can be. It they happen to have them on the ship and you are not busy, that would be great. Don't go to any trouble. It is not a big deal. What time are you leaving today? WHere again are you staying? Don't forget your friends,, not just me and the family but particularly your medicine!!!!!!!!!! You know how I harped on that before.
Bill,,,,,,, PS Good Morning

 

[kellib36]

Congrats, Ashley!!! Just heard you get the Olympics in 2012!!!

 

[bonzie1]

WE GOT OUR PINS YESTERDAY!!!

They came in a nice padded bag.

Yes, 2007 cruise... sign us up! We should have the PC cruise paid off by then!

Kay! Have fun on your cruise! I'm ready to go on another one NOW!

Lesley! Where are your pictures? Are they on another thread???

Robin! I'm excited for you and your upcoming move!

Renae! Hang in there. Hope you're mending... keep us posted. BTW, if you get up again and start framing or scrapping... could you do one for me? I have yet to start anything!

Leslie! Glad you had fun at your Mouse House over the 4th!

Liz! Hey there Texas girl!

Everybody! A BIG HELLO!
