I'm kicking myself....really hard.

So, instead of packing, we decide to watch a movie. I figured I'd cross stitch a bit and listen to the movie. Mid movie I decide to check my email. So I leave it unattended. I even LOOKED at the string hanging from the frame, but thought "oh, it's right next to Mike's head....if the cat is bothering it, Mike will notice and shoo him away."

But alas, I'm gone less than 10 minutes and I come back in the living room after I hear Nick yelling that the cat has something.

Sure enough. The dangling string AND the needle are gone. We have searched the cat's path that he took on his escape and we cannot find the needle.

So looks like Mowana is off to the vet tomorrow to get irradiated. Grrrrrrrrr.

Do NOT google "cat swallows needle." You will get page after pageof stories about cats that died, or at the minimum required surgery. Grrrrr again.

I'm so mad at myself. :furious:

cruddy U TOP.

Like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Wish I was there, I'm a GREAT needle/pin finder. All I have to do is go barefoot! :bitelip:

Good evening all - latest update at our house is that we are all packed and ready to go. Just toiletries left to pack. Can't believe it. Well, I didn't go for my manicure/pedicure today so I got all that packing out of the way so I don't have to do it on Wednesday. We have 6 bags to pack. One of them being the cooler. I thought I would be able to get away with a lot less baggage, but I guess not. I know, I probably won't wear 1/2 of the stuff, but give me a break - I'm a newbie at cruising.

Well, it's late and I have to take my FIL to the doctor's tomorrow which turns out to be a whole day affair. It's at the VA hospital and things don't move very quickly there. Wish me luck...

Chow for now...

Stacey - if I'm awake later I'll give you a holler!!!!

I hope I'm not up. I have to be up and out early in the morning. Early for ME, anyway.

We did buy some crocs at a local family nutrition store! WAY cool that they are selling them now and have such a huge selection- and cheaper than I've seen them online! (no, they aren't knock-offs either LOL) Do any MEN wear the crocs? Answer now please so I can talk DH into getting some tomorrow. LOL He thinks men won't be wearing these when obviously they do or they wouldn't have a huge section of mens crocs at the store- right? I think he's going to get blisters from wearing his sandals that he only occasionally wears at home for short periods of time. He thinks he'll look stupid and be the only man wearing crocs! ugh

I wish I could find that "tips" or list thing I remember seeing like a year ago- a list of things to take with you. I'm sure I'm going to forget something just toally "necessary" and regret it. LOL


I recently (sort of) re-posted the packing list. I think it's on page 2962.

I've seen men wearing Crocs. Jay & I saw a guy wearing them in Vegas. But Jay said he thought they looked like they'd be sweaty with all that plastic. Jay wears Teva sandals, and is fine with those, so I didn't push the issue.
 

I brought out a small rolling suitcase to carryon. It had a small matching duffel inside of it, so I'm going to leave the duffel in it, and just put our toiletries in that rolling carryon. Right now I have all the toiletries divided into each of our bags, but this will lessen some of the weight in those bags....and give me two "empty" bags to bring home! ;) :thumbsup2 :teeth: Yeah, like they'll be empty on the way back.......
 
I don't sleep well the night or two before a trip, either...so I'll be taking some Simply Sleep those nights. I can't afford to lose any beauty sleep. :guilty:
 
Off for the night. I hope the Tinks and Pam's family made it safely!!

Good night all.

Good morning, Jim.

Good morning, Irene.

Go back to bed Maria! :hug:
 
Won't have time for Friday morning karaoke, so I thought I'd post this now:




Come Saturday morning
I'm goin' away with my friend(s)
We'll Saturday-spend till the end of the day-ay
Just I and my friend(s)
We'll travel for miles in our Saturday smiles
And then we'll move on
But we will remember long after Saturday's gone
(Come Saturday morning, come Saturday mo-o-rning)

Come Saturday morning
I'm goin' away with my friend(s)
We'll Saturday-laugh more than half of the day (ay-ay-ay)
Just I and my friend(s) (my friends)
Dressed up in our rings and our Saturday things
And then we'll move on
But we will remember long after Saturday's gone
(Come Saturday morning, come Saturday morning)

Come Saturday mo (Saturday) rning

Just I and my friend(s) (my friends)
We'll travel for miles in our Saturday smiles
And then we'll move on
But we will remember long after Saturday's gone

(Come Saturday morning, come Saturday mo-o-rning)
(Come Saturday morning, come Saturday mo-o-rning)


 
It's 3:11am here in NY and I can't sleep. Keep running things through my little pea brain.

All done with packing - for the most part. Just need meds and last minute things. Boys need to pack their backpacks, fold up the garment bag, etc. Tomorrow night is my last night in my own bed for a bit. Yippeee!! I hear the Radisson has new sleep number beds. I can't wait to check one of those out.

Guess I'll parooze the boards until I get sleepy..if I get sleepy.
 
But we're too excited to sleep!



I just love that WDW commercial. The little guy reminds me of myself!!


Hi Maria!

My kids still need to arrange their carry-ons, too. Jared will bring a backpack, but heaven forbid Jordan and Amber be seen with one! I don't know how they think they're going to haul all their junk........

I love my Sleep Number bed. I should be in it right now.

I had to e-mail instructions for final payment for the September cruise to my TA, and now I'm DOUBLE (Scoop) excited! Our 105 day booking is on Saturday night when we all get home....June 3. Ask me if I plan on getting out of bed on Sunday, June 4!!!


T.O.P. with Maria the Night Walker!!!!!!!!:stitch: :simba: :simba: :sulley: :tigger:

Four more "sleeps" for me.

I'm trying not to think about Friday morning. We have to leave here by 6:30 a.m. to get to the airport. Have to have all us girls spiffied up and out the door.
But...I will need to put clean sheets on the bed for Bill...the Dog-Sitter/Kid Sitter/Employee/Newest Member of My Family........He's going to sleep in Jordan's room. Says sleeping in our room "creeps him out". I guess it would creep me out to have slept in one of my former bosses bedrooms, too.

I'm seriously thinking of letting the girls have our room, and Jay and I going down to the guest house. But then, the girls would stay up yakking all night, and be cranky in the morning. Arrgghhhh What to do???
 
Maybe I can put the clean sheets on the bed on Thursday, and just make the girls sleep on TOP of the comforter. Hmmmm :scratchin
 
Okay, Maria....I came back to talk to you and you have run away..........:sad: :sad:


 
Taking the dog to the groomer in the morning and then going for my pedicure and nail appointment. And then my hair after that. I'll probably fall asleep in the chair.
 
Do you believe it???



After 18 months, it's almost here. A couple short days and that's all!
:yay: :hyper: :rockband: party: :jumping1: :sail: :dumbo: :figment: :goofy: :maleficen :stitch: :donald: :mickeyjum
 
Darn it, Maria...where are you? We could have been yakking our way to page 3000.


Getting close to another milestone. Most likely the LAST milestone!

It will be one of our early-rising East Coasters........:thumbsup2
 
We have had to make alternate plans for the dog. She will now have to go to the kennels for a few days.
