[BWVPam]

Hey Kevin - sent you a PM back. Looking forward to our mini meet of the Great Southwest. Now we just need some of our Arizona neighbors there early to join us (haha). Stacey -- don't you want to change all of your plans at the last minute like I did and join us (haha)

See ya,

Got it and all is go Houston!!!

Been pretty quiet here this evening. I think we will start seeing a drastic reduction in the number of posts over the next few days. Everyone will be busy packing and what not.

 

[Dancind]

Right now for Tues we have a dinner ADRat Rose and Crown. We could do AK in the AM

We are having dinner at Les Chefs Tuesday night. If there are fireworks, let's meet by Japan along the water to watch. Say 8:15 to the left of the Pagoda? That's where we watched last time, wasn't it? We heard that the fireworks might be cancelled due to the drought conditions.

Hi all, just checking in before I am off to do several of thy many things I have to do over the next couple of days.

Ashley had a band concert tonight and we just did the drive through at Sonic. Too tired to worry about cooking. Thank goodness the housekeeper comes tomorrow. My house is a wreck.

I hope we have Amanda taken care of. Fed Ex found her package and it is supposedly on its way back to Columbus. When it gets to Columbus tomorrow, they are going to re-label it and ship it to Irene, who should have it by Wednesday next week. I sure hope this works

We miss Sonic. We don't have one in Northern VA. We used to go to the one in NC when the DH was stationed at Camp Lejune and the one in GA/FL when he was at Kings Bay (short drive to Jax,FL). It's been six years since we've had Sonic. Love the tator tots and sweet tea.

You're not helping that jealousy problem of mine!!
I would so love to do that. But I could never be ready to go that soon. And here I was the one organizing the snorkel bag and toiletries months ago.....where did the time go???

 

[justmestace]

Oops.....that was ME up there. Not only did the kid forget to log out...but did you see he stole my Tags??? Guess I need to explain the rules to him!

 

[soothy]

I was just going over my "to do" list and right there plain as day it says "lose 10 punds" ( So I don't have to feel guilty for putting on 10 pounds...as I plan to eat myself silly) Now how am I suppose to do that After all we leave for MCO next Wed Oh well maybe I will have better luck getting the other 101 things done

Does anyone have any "do not forget to pack" advise

 

[BibbidyBobbidyBoo]

I came back to try to catch up from the 17th the last time I posted- but I give UP! I cannot BELIEVE there's already 50 more pages since then! That's crazy. LOL
If y'all talk even 1/100th as much as you do on this thread, in real life on the cruise, it's going to be a hoot!

Did anyone post anything about the best place to stop for beer/etc. from MCO to GF?? I didn't get a PM from anyone and don't know if anyone posted about it in the last 50 pages. Surely SOMEONE knows of the best place to stop? Please don't leave us at the mercy of the limo driver. The only other time we've done a grocery stop (that time for actual groceries for a 12 night stay) he took us to I swear the most expensive place in the WORLD. I was in shock at the prices. LOL Help a girl out please?

I have too much to do- too much to do! We leave in 6 days... and have tons of stuff (not even related to the cruise) to do before then PLUS everything I need to get done before the cruise- I can't even sleep, I'm almost in panic mode. Oh but it will all be over in 6 days- the panic I mean.

Is everyone else like all packed and stuff?
I'm so upset with disneyshopping.com. They have messed up our last 2 orders and now it's too late to reorder to try to get the correct items (and return this stuff). They sent me the wrong size princess shirt for my youngest on BOTH orders- what is up with that? And on the last order they sent all 4 shorts (for DH) in the same size and color. I specifically ordered 2 navy and 2 gray- they sent me 4 navy even though that's not what it says on the emails and on the invoice in the box! grrrrrrr Fortunately this size fits- but I'll have to return some of them. He really doesn't need 4 of the same color navy shorts... (and the gray ones would have matched his shirts better..) I'm waiting to return them later because I'll have to call about it- I'm not paying return shipping for their mistakes! And that's what their automated email response says to do. grrrrrrrr I'm deleting their stupid enticing emails for discounts that I get CONSTANTLY- they talk me into shopping there and then sent the wrong stuff! Now I'll have to try to make a trip to the Disney store (hours drive each way) just to get youngest a princess shirt that will fit. Her XXS one is getting too short for her belly now (LOL) and ordered XS on both these orders but they sent adult size small! she's only 5yrs old for crying out loud. (and the invoice says princess s/s girls XS each time too!) No clue what is going on with disneyshopping.com all the sudden. She has to has to has to have a princess shirt. LOL

Anyway- please tell me you aren't ALL already packed and ready to go? LOL

Join my club. It's the "I planned on losing weight before the cruise, but never got around to it" club. Membership is free. LOL

She lives in Lake Mary.

Ang

We will be in Lake Mary tonight. That's close to Lisa's gym.

And we love Stonewoods. We eat there way to often and like their attitude for special orders. No problem.

Good Morning ----

8 days until we sail.

We leave in 7 days...

Good luck Packing Amanda....Pam - you too.....

Jim thanks for letting me have the Morning TOP!!!



It's FRIDAY

 

[chip&dale&fun]

That would be GREAT!! I've read about the same range on the National Weather site. We are packing Alicia 5/4mm, but I'll be taking a 3/2mm. We both are taking beanies (small hoods, not Stacey's DD) to help keep the head warm.

Let me/us know how Sunday's dives are and tell Sam to stay with his buddy!!

Boy this is really strange.....I am the one that gets cold and I am thinking about tossing the farmer jane....and my wetsuit is only a 3 - of course with both pieces a 6 I guess....I cannot wait to get rid of the underpiece......I get sooo hot topside.....

My beanie was to keep my ears from burning while snorkeling.....

Yes, well, I could always ask my ENT to be my new dive partner....

 

[chip&dale&fun]

I think its hysterical that you realize the importance of tiaras... but then again, you have two little girls... and some things about little girls never change, no matter how big they get!!!!

So how many of us big girls are bringing their tiaras??????

 

[chip&dale&fun]

I thought that too... which was why I added the "Wrong address" to it...

ahhhh, that was sweet!!!!!!!

But we have had rain....so you should be ok..

 

[chip&dale&fun]

I lost 10 pounds.
I am all packed.
House is all clean.
Pets are being very good.
All forms filled out.
All carry ons packed
All reservations tucked away safely
All money and tip envelopes sealed.
Nothing else to do.

Oh wait, I woke up.....That was a dream....in real life...

Good morning,
I just wanted to let you know that as of now, you will have no problems in reaching Port Canaveral - Now be aware that we have not had enough rain to drown an ant, so there is still high potentials for fires. No rain is in the forecast and you can expect the temp to be in the high 80's and low 90's.
We still can smell the acidy smoke from the fires, but nothing like it was.
I hope that this will help you as you venture toward Brevard County.
Remember traffic is heavy and it appears folks have been losing their cool with each other so relax and think of the great time you are going to have.

If there are any changes, will post it later.
Hugssssssssssssssssss always
Shirley and Norm

Good Morning All



See Ya Soon Amanda
