4/29/06 Eastern Magic...We're Going!!!!!

[suziemva]

Hey Suzie, when you get a chance will you write down what you sent out. My records, which we can all now assume suck, have the tally at 10 larges left over, no mediums, and one small - and this is with mketting getting 5L, 7M, 2C.

You know, I went over it three times last night! I did find a few mistakes that I made but I never came up with the 40, 40, 20....looks like they mailed a few extras by my count. Here's a copy of my sheet.

OOPS!! Sorry it's so big! I forgot to resize it and now it won't let me. Apologies everyone!!!

 

[Belle&RellasMom]

Don't listen to him! Our order is good!

Thank you Shy and Suzie for all of your hard work on these bracelets!!!!!!!

Hey Suzie, when you get a chance will you write down what you sent out. My records, which we can all now assume suck, have the tally at 8 larges left over, no mediums, and -1 in small - and this is with mketting getting 5L, 7M, 2C and no ohter changes.

I revised what you quoted a little. I can't see the order form, but yeah, they must have sent extras - THANK GOD!!! Man, next time you suggest something rubysmom, I am ALL EARS!!!!

 

[suziemva]

OKay, I am leaving for the post office NOW!!! Anymore changes (Tom, remember paybacks are a *itch!!), I'm sorry! If I sent you the wrong thing, accept my apologies now! Anything else, catch me on the ship!

 

[suziemva]

sorry, keep forgetting you can't see pics. I'll email it to your home and work, okay? The only difference I see is on mketting....add one more medium and change the total, should be good to go!!

 

[castlegazer]

Got it, cool, thanks - you definately had the hardest end of this stick!!!! THANK YOU!!!! Thank God they sent extras!!!!! Ok - I am hanging up my accounting role and retiring now. I just stunk at this! I am off to warn my buddies who are cruising soon and stole our idea about record keeping and ordering up. Bet their better than I am.

Suzie,

You said that your Private Messages were full so I thought I'd put this here and hopefully you'll see it. How did you make out sending my order up here? Do you know yet how much extra the international shipping will be? By the way, how many did you send me? The post at the top of this page says 5, but the last I heard I had 8 (remember I bribed you with a Pina Colada a few weeks ago to change my order). What ever you send is great. I'm so greatful that you guys did all this work. I'm just wondering how much money to send you. Send me a PM with the total amount and I'll go to the bank and get a US money order for you right away. I'm actually confused on which one of you is sending them, and which one gets paid, etc. It's been a long week and my brain quite around Wednesday I think.

We ended up with over 2 feet of snow coming down in the last two days by the way. I can't wait for this cruise!!!! Anyone want to come up for a great tobagganing party. We've certainly got the snow.

PAYMENT TO: CASTLEGAZER (address over on Yahoo or payment on ship, either way is fine by me)

SHIPPING: Suziemva

OK - I can assuredly tell you all that that last flurry of changes were not picked up by me in my final spreadsheet and that is where the big problems are happening. I was rushing at work to get ready for my trip and seem to have faied to translate your wishes onto my saved spreadsheet. I am so sorry - you did bribe me, I did fail you. Barb, you have 5 total coming to you and she just called from the post office and said how cheap it was to send them all out. Your total, paid to me, is $10.25. BUT, we can send more to you. There are still 8-9 more larges left and Suzie says the larges are very comfortable. So let either one of us know if you want to call dibs on some of those additional larges now and they will be off to you in the mail within the next few weeks. They just won't make this first mailing.

JUST TO LET THE REST OF YOU KNOW, we are also contemplating a second order. But we are going to let you all get your orders in hand and then regroup after that because some may want a larger size or may want more.

...a good round of drinks (virgin) will do the trick...

Is that what they mean by "round yon virgin"?

I tried to put our address on the other site, but I couldn't get into the database to edit it. I'm going outta town, but I will add my address when I get back, since it will take me a while to figure it out. (The database, not my address! I don't think it's a prob with the site, It's a problem with my brain.

Thank you for coordinating all of this! Seems like a nightmare, esp for those of us that are so unorganized that we leave the christmas tree up year 'round. (Did I say that out loud?)

Can't wait to see the bracelets in person , thank you so much again Suzie and CG !

Hehe , just noticed this little guy , how cute is he ?

Wow , did I just get a huge but good surprise . I was just getting ready to jump in the shower , and I decided what the H~~~, get my butt on the scale , well I got on and jumped back off , is this scale right ? , did the girls mess with it ? , you are not going to believe this but i am down 8 pounds! This seems to bit much since it has only been 2 weeks . I do go to the gym 3-4 times a week and have been eating like I said 6 half deviled eggs a day ( yup I'm sure my cholesterol level is up ) , yogurt , smoothies etc , I do not drink any soda and no more half a gallon of chocolate milk a day . This is crazy , guess I only need 6 more pounds to go then I can eat all i want down there on vaca .A big fat sundae sounds about right !

I thought we agreed it was just a tree with lights. Not a Christmas tree!

Nope, CG's PM box is full....mine is just empty and wasting away...nobody loves me.....I sent you 2 lg 3 med...what others do you need? I'll put a hold on them to get them to you...can mail them or wait til the ship. Let me know.

I will NOT be asking for shipping costs! The whole lot that I sent today was only $12!!! NOT A BIG DEAL! I will NOT be asking for your pennies, quarters and dimes...that's what it amounts to! I appreciate the offers (y'all are so sweet!!), but really, please just pay CG and don't worry about the shipping costs out! I think I can afford the measly $12!!!!

You can PM me your addy - hint-hint - so that I could mail the bracelets to you and then I could update for you...not sure if everyone has that capability on the site....

Round yon virgin.....very funny! Yes, I'm round but nope...well you guess the rest!!

Have a great trip and tell us all about it when you get back!

 

[partypat]

Can't believe it. SNOW in California. Yup!!! I woke up this morning and the hills around town are covered in the white stuff. Whats up with this weather. 70 degrees last week....snow this week.

I'm off to Santa Cruz to RV with my sister and BIL. Theres snow there too. Should be a fun weekend.

Thanks for all your hard work Suzie and CG. Can't wait to receive them.

 

[ohsodisney]

Dh just arrived home from DC , he had a laminator and did our luggage tags for the trip . Here it is on our shoe bag . He's so clever

PP , I'm glad someone else is getting snow too . Personally I have had enough of the white stuff ! Have fun in Santa Cruz !!!

I finally got my cabin door sign done!
I also did the iron on pictures that will go on pillowcases for the Princesses/Characters to sign on the cruise ship. I posted them all on the other site in the Cabin Door Signs album if anyone wants to see them. I am so excited that I got them done- something else checked off my list

I am going shopping tomorrow to finish up on any needed items for the cruise. My mom (Gamma- who is going on the cruise with us and is a lurker) and I are heading out to a mall further away from my house because it has a Disney Store and I want to see what they have. They closed all of the Disney Stores in our area and then just recently opened this new one so I need to check it out.

New Question of the Day:

What is your child's (children's) favorite ride at Disney?

My answer: Coby- Dinosaur at AK; Sydney- too young to remember but she can't wait to go on Aladdin's Carpets at MK.

 

[suziemva]

Very cute pics! I must say, I saw that you added new pics but couldn't find them so thanks for pointing out where! Very cool door sign!! Gosh, I'd forgotten all about doing it so now I've gotta get my thinking brain in gear and start thinking!!!

Tori's favorite ride - Goofy's Barnstormer! No doubt about it!

Ed's favorite ride (hey, he's a BIG kid!!) Rock'n Roller Coaster at MGM!!!!

 

[castlegazer]

Dumbo for Quinn. But he hasn't been but twice, once when he was one and once when he was just under 2, so he hasn't ridden Barnstormer or any other cool ride like Space Rangers.

Productive afternoon for me - I love it when it's rockin here!!!! I hate sitting around bored spinning my wheels. It's also not a good sign that I have been so idle lately. We need to pick it up!!!!!

I also just got the high of playing the stock market this afternoon - I could be a day trader in another life. I love it. I placed 8th in the country back in high school in that mock trading thing they always do with kids. I love to trade stocks!!! I don't do it very often, though, so it's a mini high when I get to. I have too many dull boring mutual funds out there - need more risk!!!! My husband would be going right now.

 

[castlegazer]

mom2cobysyd - THOSE ARE AWESOME!!!!! How did you do them? In PS?

Um, could I hire you to do one for Quinn????? I love how you did it for Coby - can you teach me how to do it?????? He loves Buzz and Toy Story characters.

I love Midnite's designs so I was going to use this in a pillow case:



and then add stuff around it.

 

[mom2cobysyd]

CG- I'll try one for you with a Toy Story theme. I will email it to you when I am done. It's the least I can do for all the work you did on getting us the bracelets.
