[tinksdad]

Considering the acessories, you got to be wondering exactly what kind of dinner we're talking about here..

Surf and Turf??

 

[MarkRG]

Surf and Turf??

Must be catch it yourself...

 

[justmestace]

The first time you posted him I thought it read: "Tonight I dive with the Captain" with the mask and the snorkel, it made sense.....

That would work too.....
Oh yeah...I can just see me and Thord, he in his trunks and me in my swimsuit with the long skirt...compliments of Omar the Tent Maker....uh huh...sure.....

 

[justmestace]

Must be catch it yourself...

Hey...I just watched Survivor! I can do that.

 

[justmestace]

I made "breakfast" for dinner last night...pancakes, bacon...as I was frying the bacon, that darn song kept going through my head. "I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan..." Took me all night to get it out of my head, and now it's back again.

Kevin, when you pack for Key Largo make sure you save a little room for the return trip. I have Diana's Pina Colda wine for you to take back.

Kevin - will you have room to take back another bottle of white Florida white wine for Diana - this one came from a Florida winery on the west coast - not orange, but a nice change?????

The gnome's quote is wishful thinking. I don't have a real gnome, although my daughter Jordan played one at school! LOL
When we travel, we take Jared's Pooh bear. He got him when he was about 18 months old and had surgery, and was a constant companion. Now that Jared is a little too "cool" to pack Pooh himself, I pack him!

Goodie - Pooh - Bear and Hedgie can have a class photo.....

 

[scuba diver]

OK! Thanks for the reminder, I had forgotten about that!! How much does "she" owe you??

The wine was a cheap $9, but it's the handling and storage that is expensive. At $1 a day that comes up to $85. Cash is fine.

 

[chip&dale&fun]

Can someone please tell me where the gift cards and presents are. I was m,aking great progress with wrapping and packing so that sam (he's so nice) could mail the out of town USA presents today - but nooooooooo they are noooooowhere in site. Here presents, presents, presents, presents....

They don't answer, and they don't come. Yikes, I must buy them all over again? Say it isn't so....(Although extra gift cards when I find them in June is not al that bad of an idea).

Handed ot the invitations to the neighbors for a Christmas Cheer Toast mini-party on December 22. We can toast the end of the hurricane season as well and I do not wish to hear any weatherman mention a phi, rho, phie, kappa, etta or whatever is next in the greek alphabet.

And we have are now hosting a dinner for friends who have heard enough of our cruise stories to have booked a 4 night in March - that should be fun. Christmas dinner, nice friends, Mickey and a cruise. Do bad I don't have any fairy tale. Apparently, we already corrupted them into attending Food and Wine.

tonight is my POWER SHOPPING night with old time girlfriend. Must finish up all friends. Make that will finish!!! Then relax at a late dinner.....

It is Cold here today....Must be in the 40s. Cats will not be liking this at all.....

Well, time to run a load of laundry and attempt to tidy up the kitchen. Where does this clutter come from?

Good Morning All - I am getting Tivo! Several pages ago there was a discussion and I called Directv. There is a 'deal' and I get Tivo delivered and installed for $14.95 and $5.99 a month. Thank you all for helping me.


Mary and Mark, I enjoyed your visit to DL. I read the trip reports to Jeanne and she is still in memory lane about her trips there.

But I wanna meet Emmy, too! (Why don't we have a pouty, stomp-your-foot smilie?)

Sue,

It sounds like your Emmy and my Emily are about the same age ... both are in kindergarten this year. We'd love to meet her too!

You are a GREAT aunt! I wish we lived closer to my sister. She'd be a great aunt too.

A T.O.P. shared with Sue, Emmy and my sister!!!

 

[dobelover]

Morning Ang - Thanks for the 'top'. Not much going on here, had to cancel the senior bus for Mom, too icy here for the bus. My neighbors that recently moved to SC sent me an email, no ice down there!

So many times I don't get to see the end of L&O. I can set it and not worry!

We're building some display racks for an artist. He was in today, and had one of his paintings with him to see how they'll hang on the stands. It was a little scratched up, so as he was leaving, he told Jay to just keep the painting. He sells them for $2500 and up. Not something I'd want in the living room, but Jared is going to be thrilled. The guy paints pictures of motorcycles and classic cars. This one is a motorcycle, so Jared can put it in his room.

That's a link to some info and pics of some of his prints. The painting he gave Jay is huge.... 4'x3'...and it's of the orange motorcycle. Interesting, anyway.

Small world... he is a friend of my FIL... and he DOES have them in his living room... but then again, he's single, so he doesn't have anyone to tell him that its not 'living room' material.

Sure! Anything for sweetie!!

Ouch!! Are you sure that's for handling? Was that storage at optimum temperature???

Good morning cruisers!

Happy Tuesday!

​

Live from John Wayne airport! We are checked in and just waiting to board the plane. Should be home early afternoon. Have a great day everyone!

 

[TiggerInNY]

Hi Everyone!!!

We made it. We flew in on Friday night and with the storm in the NorthEast, we were delayed. I am very happy though. There were people stuck in MCO going to Boston(yuck) who were stranded there until Sunday. Not a bad thing to be stuck in FL for 2 more days, but these people didn't seem to have any money cause they were saying that they were going to have to stay in the airport. Who goes on vacation without a credit card for emergencies??? They were there for a cheerleading competition. I was just happy to get on a plane and come home at that point. I changed our flight to Sunday also, and then our original plane was boarding. Had to run and get my seats back. Phheeww!!!

Anyway, I don't have a trip report ready yet. We came home to our new master bedroom with carpeting in it. Yeeaahhh!!!! So, we have spent the last day and a half moving in. My bedroom furniture looks like doll furniture in the new bedroom. The room is sooooo big. 18 x 24 with 2 walk-in closets, bathroom, and laundry room. Life is good.

We had a very nice time in WDW. We went to MK and MGM. The weather could've been better. A little chilly for my liking. I brought all these sleeveless shirts for everyone and we really didn't get a chance to wear them.

Sorry we didn't get together with KikiKaren, Jim & Sharon. We were really looking forward to that. Oh well, guess we have to wait until May.

There are way too many pages to go back and read. Anyone interested on a synopsis of the past week? Anything new happen. Did I see a new cruiser join us? Welcome....

Well, I have to go now. Believe it or not, I haven't unpacked all our Summer clothes yet out of our suitcases and into the attic yet.

Lots to do and no time to do it in.

TTFN,
Maria
