2006 DVC Member Cruise - SSMC06 - October 22, 2006 Part 6

[rsschneck]

Have you guys heard of the Timber Ridge Resort? I just received some information on a great rate for a 1 bedroom and 4 water park passes. Let me know if you need anymore information. It says 90 minutes from Chicago. I think it is in Michigan.

Just an FYI for your next get together.

Hi, I am caught up. Reading of these adventures makes me want to go.
I went to the obgyn on Tues., they wanted to do a d&c today, unfortunately we could not get a straight answer if hospital would be covered.
I went to the ER. ( which I will just say did not solve anything)
I will be trying every herbal remedy in the book.
I have an appointment at another Obgyn for Monday, I will be at mousefest but probably not doing much - a few meets not as mush as I planned.
No fast rides. (No splash :[ no startours or anything.)

If anyone has any home remedies - PM me! I'll be leaving tommorow.

Sorry no home remedies other than a big

I've been working on a project called "illusion" knitting. Here is what I came up with. Took me most of the day and needs some tweaking still I think but you can get the idea. I want to do one in black and white with facial details like the Mickey Mouse Club logo..hmmmmm had to start somewhere.

Ilene that is so cool. I was looking at the first pic thinking

. Then I scrolled down to the next one and all I can say is WOW!

HA! Yeah, it's pretty blah as a straight on scarf, just stripes. But it is the way the stripes are set up that lets you "see" the image from the side.
There are all sorts of patterns for aliens and the linux penguin and snowflakes but I couldn't find one for a mickey so....

Thanks, Amy for sending out the Tiara. I'm just as guilty for not sending out the extra DVD's to you. They will be on the way on Saturday.

MaryJ, I do love my Denises for most projects but Addi Turbos are my absolute favs. It's nice to have a full set but since I'm always working on about 15 things at once I never seem to have enough cords now, LOL.
Ahhhh..can't win. I have all my needles in a expanding checkbook file type thing. It works well for me and I have all my needles in one place...except the ones being used of course..so I had to set up an excel sheet that lists all my works in progress, needle size, yarn type and location (which bag). Now I know what I have and where it is...whew!

I agree. The turbos are better for some things. I just finished a baby blanket a few weeks ago. The yarn tended to grab on the Denises, but when I switched to the turbos, I sailed through it!

Sounds like a great idea to me. But this time we'll have to find someplace that doesn't have a car video game so Ian will join us. He's still very into cars, in fact he snagged one from his grandmother's yesterday and it's hardly been out of his hands since. And right now he's sleeping with it yet again.

We'll just have to make sure anything "car" oriented is portable so he will sit with us! I also hope that we can meet closer to our side of town. It was a little over an hour for me so closer to you would be great since you are close to halfway between me and Julie.

Hi all. Have had a busy few weeks. Sounds like the Chicago meet was really fun. I really wish we could have went but we are going to Chicago in Feb for a gym meet. Tom is actually there right now with work to check on their new radio system. He will be home tomorrow.

Is anyone besides Mark and Mary going to try to get on the members cruise? I really can't decide if we want to go. We would love to go on another cruise with everyone else but I really don't want to go in June. We probably should not go on either one and try to save some more money but what fun would that be???? I guess I really need to decide soon.

Is anyone else trying to get the I Pod Shuffles for $29. I have been up at 4AM the last four days to try to get a few with no luck. Yesterday I had them in my cart and by the time I checked out they were all gone. I did get my neice the 2GB Nano for $99. She is going to be sooooo excited. I am going to try tomorrow again to get the shuffle. I now need 10 of them. Quite a few people at gym want them so I told them I would try.

Chris, thanks for all the work you put into this.

We are in. I just have a question. Do we know the rates for 1 night vs. 2 nights?

Do you know if we qualify for the Kroger Promotion (is that a grocery store??) rate? We have stayed at the Great Wolf in Wisconsin Dells in a family suite and it was very nice so it's probably what we are going to want to do again. Looking at it for the 2 nights, it looks like it could be between $328-$358 for Friday & Saturday night? Am I looking at that right?

We are not interested. Had it not been for this group, SSMC06 would have been a bust.

So, we'll spend our $$'s another way -- which won't be hard to do as we already have all of our plans made for next year. And, we'll probably spend total what it would cost for the 4 of us to sail on the next member cruise and have several vacations out of it!

I am trying to get on the Members cruise.

I'm waiting on their group department to get back to me.Kroger does give out coupons and so does our Meijer stores.I'm going to swing by those stores tomorrow and see if they are that far out on the coupons.

No not trying for this one.I want to go on a 7 day with all my friends for the same price as the member cruise!

Hi Ann Marie! Hope all is well. Tom and I were thinking about trying to get on the next member cruise but after reading the posts how DVC is calling all of the people that they said were not picked for the special call in, it seems to me that they don't want any of the people from SSMC06 on the next cruise. There is a thread where several people said they received calls Monday and Tuesday from DVC offering them spots on the ship even though they received the rejection email. That just doesn't make me feel very welcome! It would be one thing if DVC only made calls on Saturday as they originally said but now that we are aware that they not only called people on Saturday, Monday and at least through Tuesday it doesn't leave us with a good feeling.
