5/27/06 "Il pochi il fiero i blabbermouths" We *will* sail again

[ohiominnie]

and the romantic turndown was beautiful.

You don't need REAS to do this. What you do is have a blabber-mouth 10 yr old and some really great friends. Next thing you know, you've got rose petals!!

 

[ohiominnie]

my Banfi that I ordered arrived today! So, the question is: Banfi before bed, or Nyquil for my cold???

I should have ordered it online. I figured I could find it somewhere here in town but I've hit dead ends everywhere. They all say "oh, that crap? we don't carry it anymore."

I'm running out of time......

 

[kikipug]

Maybe if you've done without it this long, you really don't need it?

Sad thing is, we dig in that box every day... stapler, pencils, binoculars, etc, etc, etc... before we remodeled, we had a built in desk in the kitchen... it seemed like such a big junk collector that we ripped it out and put in regular cabinets and countertop there... no we have nowhere for the junk that we pretended didn't exist.

In a week I'll share a bottle with you!

 

[scuba diver]

And I'll be there on Friday!

Sorry haven't been around much. Just busy. Mike is having eye surgery for his glaucoma (laser) tomorrow at 7:30. ....

That's right...you will see the new wetsuit. That's part of all the excitement we have planned for you.

Best wishes to Mike that all goes well

On the night we had Palo Reservations, our bed had a rose petal shaped heart on it

Here it is:

Good morning cruisers!​

Happy Friday!

Mike- good luck on the surgery! We're thinking of you!

I'm off to downtown today to do interviews. So instead of going in to work in jeans (we have casual Friday's) I get to be in a suit. Oh well it pays the bills!

 

[CajunGirl2]

By doing REAS, I was able to make all three of my Palo Reservervations & my spa appointments a month in advance of the cruise (so no REASY rush for me!!!! and I was a lot lessed stressed about getting on board to get what I wanted and then finding the times full).

Thanks. I think I'll seriously consider it since this is our first cruise & I don't want to be stressed about having to rush on board to make ressies. Will be tough on us since we're planning on driving down and will have 2 little ones in tow! School doesn't get out until May 26th so I think we'll be driving 1/2 way on Fri. night & the remainder on Sat. morning. DH wouldn't be happy if we had to rush, rush, rush to get to the ship! He's more layed back than I am.

Another question regarding the spa treatments. Do couples have to go at the same time? Can I go alone & have DH stay with kids then he go at a later time? Or better yet ... can I have 2 spa treatments & he have none!!!

Man, that's not fair! It's a good thing DH doesn't read the boards....

OK, Jim, I'll bite. What's the new picture of? Looks like a diver, but those don't look like fins.

Looks like Ariel!

Laser surgery went ok. Had to wait around an hour after to check his eye pressure. It was elevated. Then another hour. Still elevated. Then another 45 minutes. Still elevated. Lots of eye drops and two diuretics later, the doc sent him home with instructions to continue the drops and diuretics and come in first thing tomorrow to be rechecked (the office is not open but the doc will meet him there to check)

I'm doing Dream Dinners tomorrow so we'll have to be creative with who is watching the kids when.

 

[CajunGirl2]

Ok. All of this talk about Banfi again this morning has piqued my curiosity. I think I'll have to venture & look for some of this stuff. My best friend gave me a creme brulee set for Chistmas & I've yet to use it. Will Banfi go well with creme brulee???

 

[Dancind]

On the Holiday cruise, we decided that Banfi goes well with everything. We were even drinking it with beef at dinner. But the thing is goes with the very best is chocolate. Make your Creme Brulee with chocolate, and you'll be in heaven!

I'm disappointed in you hon!!

That's a "Rare Mermaid Butt" !!

 

[CajunGirl2]

Stopped at Kroger on the way home & found some Banfi. On "sale" for $22.

Do I need to chill it?

 

[Dancind]

Yes, do chill it! And don't forget the chocolate. Enjoy!

 

[justmestace]

Kroger had Banfi??? Wow. I have one bottle chilled....do I need to keep the other two in the fridge, too?
Nope, I didn't drink one last night. Took the Nyquil. Maybe tonight I'll open one. Or maybe right now.

Mermaid Butt?? C'mon, we may be gullible, but we aren't stupid!
So who's the diver with their feet together??

 

[CajunGirl2]

Hey Stacey,

What kind of surgery did your mom have that she now has titanium in her body? Just curious.

Angie

Hey Stacey,

Angie

She had hip replacement surgery. I teased her that she was now eligible to play on the softball team Jay & I are on....almost everyone on the team has at least one steel plate or screws!

 

[kikipug]

Where is everybody tonight????

DH is working, DD & DS BOTH have sleepovers at other kids house... the dog and I are sitting here all alone, soaking up the peace and quiet...
