Wow- our thread was almost off the first page! What's that about? :confused3 LOL

Stacey-okay so I'm not that old... but sometimes I feel it! I'll soon be 37... so maybe I should just say I'm just too FAT, not old. Because something is doing it to me. LOL I just can't take 10-12hrs day after day out in the heat, walking and riding rides or slides and stuff. I need like a few days to recoup in between those! LOL
(but somehow I can manage going day after day in a row at WDW- figure that one out. Must be pixie dust keeping me going or something. :rotfl: )

LOL at what your daughter said... like WHO else would be the one to do what you "left" for someone else?

Ohiominnie- what's up with swimsuits lately? Ruby's disney one was looking pretty ragged after only wearing it a few times on the cruise and yesterday at the waterpark it hit it's last leg... it was so stretched out and almost see thru in some areas because of stretching out and just hanging off her in places!- within an hour of being there I had to leave and take her to walmart to buy a new swimsuit! (she can't have her swimsuit like "see thru"... she's is in full blown puberty for crying out loud! LOL)

Finalized some things with the TA- even though our dates aren't out yet. I kinda wish we'd rebooked TWO weeks so we'd get the 10% discount and stateroom credit on both cruises but then we'd have had to put down double the deposit I suppose... in any case, we're all set with insurance now (they talked me into it because of the preexisting condition thing- we had to get insurance within 14 days of the TA getting the info about the rebooking) and when the dates come out they are already set to "try" to get the rooms we want. We're going to try for June 7th and June 14th since I'm not exactly sure when school will be let out that year (got next year's schedule and we're starting Aug 16th and getting out May 25th- with hardly ANY "breaks" throughout the year except Christmas)- who knows what will happen the next year though. They might be starting late and ending on May 30th! We like to do a few days at WDW before the cruise- so we'd have to take them out the last week of school to do the May 31st and June 7th cruise.
I hope all y'all aren't going to do the May 31st cruise- that would stink. If nothing "special" is planned that summer- the June 7th should be Eastern, June 14th western. (that's what TA figured, hope she's right LOL)

That would mean our youngest would celebrate her 8th birthday during the 2nd cruise. :banana: I wonder if that means the first cruise she can go in the 5-7 age group in the club and then the 2nd cruise in the lab with 8-10's? Probably.. :cheer2:

Anyway, we're going to try to get the "special" cat 7 verandah rooms (that are really like cat 6 except have the corner obstruction thing and are cat 7 so they are cheaper LOL) with cat 11's across the hall. I was going to do navigator's verandah- until I realized the pics I had seen originally were on Wonder with the longer oval opening...then realized on magic it's a circle and we wouldn't be able to see out while sitting- only standing. So nav verandah and/or verandah with metal all the way up to the railing was out! So we're going to try to get the "obstructed" view verandahs- and if we can't get that they'll try for reg. cat 6 ones I picked out on deck 6 that others had mentioned were quiet and such (midship deck 6) Anywho- point being that we're starting to really plan on this-even though it's like a million days in the future. :woohoo: :rotfl:

My Garmin won't work this morning. It just keeps turning itself off.


Since this is the one that I use for running/biking I think it is telling me to go back to bed and not to exercise this morning. :banana:

Hey, Jim, I got myself a baby Garmin. It's a "Streetpilot i5", about the size of a tennis ball. Very cute. And now I no longer have to remind Kevin every Thursday to bring in the GPS for estate saling on Friday. Especially since I usually forget to remind him.

So my darling daughter's solution was....."Just do the important stuff, and either leave the rest, or have someone else do it" :confused:...........Like that would work. :sad2:

OR, make Jordan get her driver's license! That would cut your running around in half, or even more, if you could get her to run Jared around. Isn't that the reason we let them drive, finally?

Is it that difficult to find your way around town??? :confused3 I've only lived here for 3 years and 4 days, but I've pretty much figured it out!!:confused3

Just how far DO you run???? (Note to self... never take up a form of exercise that will land me in a place so far away that I don't know where I am...)
 

Just thought I would share this with yall too.. I c&p's from my other double scoop thread..please spare prayer. Thank you


I hate myself today and I do mean hate...



I never ever carry cash. I like to use my debit or credit cards...EXCEPT when we are on vacation. I just returned from vacation June 4th.

Being the lazy person I am, I have not taken my funds back to the bank yet. $900 worth of funds. I know I am stupid. Stupid stupid stupid...I told myself right b4 I left for lunch, oh crud I gotta put that back in the bank or I am going to lose it.


Do you see where this is going? I grab my wallet for lunch. I take the whole thing, like an idiot. I walk over to subway. I order, I pay. I fix my drink. I realize my Ipod and my wallet are in the same pocket. Oh no, cant have that one or the other may fall out. I move wallet to other pocket.


Fix my drink walk to work. Eat my lunch, return to work, reach in pocket to return wallet to purse. Wallet not there! Dont panic Amanda. you left it in the break room. Walk back to break room, not there. Heart skips a beat. Dont panic Amanda, co workers playing a joke on you. Ask co workers, nope they are not messing with me.


Walk fastly BACK to subway, dont get to paniced Amanda, or you will feel like a fool when some good soul has turned it in. Ask manager, wallet turned in? NOPE. PANIC mode sets in. Retrace steps Amanda. Maybe you set it down and you will laugh about this when you find it in the fridge in the breakroom, or in the restroom. NOPE.


Tears and panic now. Back to SUBWAY again. Are you sure no one has turned it in? NOPE...TEARSS TEARS AND MORE TEARS....back to work....cry again..coworker suggests I check trash cans in SUBWAY and around in case someone trashed it...back to SUBWAY...nope not in trash cans....just like that...in the blink of an eye...it is gone. I do not know if I set it down, or if I was pickpocketed. I have been crying all afternoon and I am just sick about it. I have had that $$ in my wallet for 2 weeks now, and thought about paying for stuff with it, but said nah...I like my cards then I can see exactly what I spent where.. iwill just put this iin the bank..STUPID STUPID STUPID...I keep hoping that maybe the person who picked it up, just has not been able to get in touch with me yet. That is very unlikely. $900!!!!!!$900!!!!!!!I think of the OT the Steve worked in order for us to have such a luxirious vacation and I just wasted it away in a second and it breaks my heart. I think of the plans I had for that money, and I get so upset....I am sooo upset right now I just needed to vent

Good for you. I ended up buying one like Sharon's so I don't have to keep borrowing hers. Once you go GPS it's hard to go back.

I talked to their tech support today about my wrist mounted GPS and it's back in the mail. They are going to replace it.

They have great tech support, if you are willing to hold on the phone.

Thanks for the reminder that I need to load the Alaska maps for our upcoming trip. :thumbsup2

Goofy first...
and the nerve of her she said she wanted the "other" Goofy picture!
then I sent Chip! :lmao:
Now she has a new one....MAYBE it's me....maybe not! :) :lmao: :lmao:

Nope it is Pluto - just how many characters did you have post like that.

Pam - were you in on this from the start? Wow you share a 2 bedroom with someone and you think you no them. :rotfl:
 
Amanda - sorry to hear about your lost wallet. Mark lost his a couple of years ago and after we called all the cards and cancelled them we got a call from Visa. A woman had found it and was calling them to get hold of us. Drove back up to Milwaukee (where he lost it) and it was all there (he had about $100 in it). Needless to say he gave her that $100 as a reward. We were just happy it didn't land in the hands of someone who could steal his identity.

It's not that I get lost, even though it does have a "route me back home" feature. It's just helpful to know how far you've been and at what pace.

Sunday night I went out for a ride, went by the Cabbage Patch and ended up at the Flea Market. It was such a nice night and my audio book was really good so I just kept riding. Times like that it is fun to know how far (22.3 miles).

I'm planning on running the Palms Beach Marathon in December so I'm ramping up the miles. Why don't you join me! :happytv:

Karen - When are you going to be at WDW in December? If possible, maybe we could meet up with you. Let us know so we can get it on our "schedule". I'll understand if your time is already filled up. Just let us know.

Wonderful... did you see Holey Moley? (Larry the Cable Guy Fans... that flea market is where 'Holey Moley' came from...)

Yeah... right... you have me confused with my DH... who used to ride 100 miles at a time FOR FUN!! (more like torture to me...) 10 miles is plenty of exercise for one day.
 
Question for you scrapbookers ... the girl last night suggested using Coluzzle templates. Do any of you use them?
