2006 DVC Member Cruise - SSMC06 - October 22, 2006 Part 4

[alikat99]

Guess I should have read a little more before my last post.

I almost purchased the book from amazon last night, but I read something on wikopedia that made me decide to do a little more research first. It said So, I wonder when exactly "before the 2006 holiday season" is?

Oh, now that makes the decision harder! I just might have to wait until October 20th to buy the book in hopes that the new edition comes out before then.

Amy - I LOVE the new picture of you and your family!

Ditto!

Amy have you and Chris checked out Ford. The dealerships around here are having 0% financing for 72 months on 2006 Ford cars, trucks, SUV's. I have contacted our Costco affiliated with Ford to see what kind of a deal we could get for DH on a new Ranger. His Ranger is 12 years old. The sale goes through the 5th.

Thanks Roxann! Actually, a co-worker with Chris has a friend that finds good used cars, and he found a pretty good one for Chris. He's had it inspected and it's in great shape. We're waiting for the check from the insurance company and then we'll be back to 2 cars.

Love the new Mouse Matters!! That has happened to us in the past!!!

On a ship even!

Yeah, Mike didn't mention that in his article....the "hunt out the DISer that brought the most medical equipment" strategy.

I am liking all the new siggies. Glad to see everyone is sprucing up just before the big rush to the finish!

Ok, hope this makes sense.....The bar of bath soap is on the bottom, laying on its side. The facial soap is standing up on top of the bath soap, making a nearly complete Mickey.

Every once in awhile we'd get a housekeeper who would do this for us when she left our new soaps.

Ok, I have never noticed that before!!! That's cool!!!

Yeah, can someone tell me where the "stay at home" comes in?????

Every time I try to plan a "we're staying home all day" day--it backfires and we end up having 6 kids here and I wish we would have left the house!

For those looking for Magnetic Door Sheets, Walmart has them. They are about $10-11 plus tax for I think 6 sheets (might be 8). Amy, they have them here in Lakeland on Rt 98.

Thanks Jeff!!! I still have a TON of the magnet strips, so I'll just use those up before I buy the magnet sheets.

Yeah, we have that dumb Cowboys game on CBS so we're TIVOing it on the alternate channel at the same time - so glad they told us that during the broadcast Tues or we would have missed it as Tivo didn't update to the other channel.

Danielle is so going, but I cannot wait for the double twist to see how it turns. I also cannot wait for Erika to see how bad she's been played.

That's what I was telling Chris last night. Erika is SO whipped that she doesn't realize that she's totally getting played. And, the sad part is that she's questioning it, but she's not trusting her instincts.

 

[alikat99]

Very creative! I never knew they would do that.

I will miss the Mickey items as well.

OMG - I have SO many of those Mickey soaps and shampoos in my guest bathroom. I used to swipe them every time we stayed at the WDW hotels before anyone could use them. Then, I made Chris use the stuff that we brought, instead of the Mickeys. But, we never use them at home, but they are in the Mickey bathroom.

Oh how cute. He gets to sleep with Pooh Bear!!!
My son's very first stuffed animal was Winnie the Pooh. We were at the world when I was pregnant and we picked him up and brought him to the hospital when I went to deliver and one of the first pictures for him in his hospital bassinet is with his poohbear!

Emily's first stuffed animal was a Pooh bear too. Except, it's that HUGE one! We bought it at EPCOT in the UK and picked it up at the hotel. Chris just couldn't pass up that gigantic Pooh. Now, I'm getting ready to eBay it, because it takes up too much space and the girls don't play with it.

That's what I was telling Chris last night. Erika is SO whipped that she doesn't realize that she's totally getting played. And, the sad part is that she's questioning it, but she's not trusting her instincts.

I'm still rooting for Janelle and Will. I think they are both totally playing each other and playing the best game. I think Erika needs a good slap upside the head so she can wake up and see what's going on. I also can't stand Boogie because I think he's just Will's puppet. The dude couldn't make a decision on his own if his life depended on it.

And Amy--I LOVE the new family pic!

PS - I just noticed I hit a milestone!

Congrats Annmarie!!! ​

Thanks for the instructions, just trying out my new signature line. I leave in the morning for work but then at 12:30 to go on a camping trip with 19 other families. We are going to the Berkshires, we go every Labor Day weekend. It's bittersweet because dd usually goes with me but I'm taking two female friends and alot of knitting this year. Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday weekend. I'm hoping we stay mostly dry but that isn't likely with the hurricane headed our way. Oh well I have a pop up that we can sit and knit in so I'm all set except for packing it up and setting it up so I hope those times are dry ones!

Have a GREAT trip, Ilene!!! And, my fingers are crossed that you stay dry!!!

So I'm sure no one would be surprised that if you go to ebay and do a search on Disney Cruise Line Lotion there are two auctions currently up selling the free lotion/shampoo you get on the ship.

This morning I broke my baby toe on my left foot by stubbing it on the footboard of my bed. My own fault, I should have put on my slip on shoes. This hasn't been my year. I broke 2 ribs in May.

Oh NO!!!! I hope that you get better soon!! If you can, make sure that it's wrapped tight to the toe next to the broken one. My mom shattered her 2 smallest toes years ago, and there wasn't much they could do was wrap it up and stay off of it as much as possible.

Happy Anniversary Hope & Duane!! ​
