7th January 2007, 4 Night Wonder Cruise

[Cruisin]

Hey Mandy!

I'm sorta, kinda looking forward to it! I am so nervous about flying and I'm not looking forward to leaving the kids. What's wrong with me!

I'll just have to get over it!

You will probably be amazed at how easy it is to "forget" about the kids for a bit once you get away

Just look at it as a practice run for your upcoming cruise

I like the way you're thinking Robin

I hope you're all having a lovely day

[Cruisin]

I'm not having a really lovely day today

I have a tooth that is bothering me.

I THINK it is the tooth but my jawbone aches too so it could be sinuses

I just called the dentist and I'm going for an xray tomorrow to see if it is the tooth causing the problem.

Guess I just suffer until then.

Went to the doctor yesterday and found out that I have elevated liver enzymes Don't know exactly what is the cause of that but I've got an appointment for an ultrasound in Dec. I hope whatever I have is not really seriously life threatening because I could die by the time I have that test done

AND one of Rick's cousins died yesterday. It was not unexpected because she had been battling cancer for 13 years but she was only 62 so it is sad. I think the funeral is on Saturday, so there goes my weekend.

Saturday is Rick and mine's 28th wedding anniversary, not a fun way to spend the day.

 

[disallday!]

Good idea Robin!!!

I keep getting bumped off today!

 

[mandymouse]

Aww Robin, it sounds like you're having a tough time

Sorry to hear about your tooth/jaw ache - I hope it gets sorted tomorrow, also I'm sorry to hear about your liver problems - I'm sure if it was serious they'd have you in sooner than December wizard: sending pixie dust ) and then I'm also sorry to hear about Rick's cousin - I agree, it's not going to be a good day for your wedding anniversary celebration, will you do something nice on Sunday instead ?

Take care

Mandy

p.s. Kelly, the DIS seems to be very slow for me today

 

[Cruisin]

Thanks Mandy.

My tooth/jaw ache is not really bad right now, it's just there you know. Lurking somewhere in the background. Certainly it is tolerable and the pain is manageable.

The doctor has no idea when my ultrasound appointment is. Now we call the hospital and arrange our own appointments If they are booking 2 months away, I guess that is what you get I don't know if there is anyway to get the appointment moved up to a closer date or not.

I'm sure though that if the doctor were really, really concerned she would make sure that the testing was done quicker.

Actually we have no anniversary plans at all.

I told Rick that maybe he should have planned a "surprise" weekend getaway for us to Vegas or something (he could book it today and it would still be a surprise ). Then we could have fun AND avoid going to a funeral Not too likely to happen though.

What a great idea Robin, I think you deserve it with everything that's been going on

Has Rick's airplane season finished now, or is it on all year ? What a shame he isn't flying somewhere nice and hot this weekend ? and take you away from it all

Mandy

 

[Cruisin]

The airplane season is officially over for competitions in our area. It is getting too cold for that.

they do still go out and fly around and have fun though.

I think next weekend there is a fun get together in Michigan. I think they call it the "chili fly" They have chili and they get together and fly and hope it is not too chilly

The weather report for the weekend looks not too bad. Sunny with temps in the upper 60's. I can handle that. Now I'd much prefer the upper 80's if I had a choice

Hi Girls

Has anyone had to change their signature, due to the signature guidelines changing ? I have as it cut one of my countdowns off

Have a great day everyone

 

[Cruisin]

Morning Mandy.

My signature seems to be fine, nothing is missing.

I've got dance class this morning so I've gotta run.

Be back later.

Have a great day everyone.

 

[disallday!]

I've been robbed!!!

My ticker is gone!!! I thought I was still in the guidelines, guess I didn't read it too well

Robin, hope you are feeling much better today! P & PD for everything that you are going thru right now! I agree with you... if it was something to worry about, the doctor would have brought you in sooner.

Mandy, you were investigated by the siggie police too! That explains the boards yesterday!

 

[mandymouse]

Kelly - You'll probably find that your ticker is still in your signature, just go into your User Cp, take out some blank lines and have a play around and it will fit into the new sized box

Robin - How did you get on at the dentist ? and I hope you had a good dance class

Betsy - Have a good lunch day, have you done anymore video ?

Have a good day

 

[disallday!]

I'm going to have to keep working on mine! I may get a smaller ticker from somewhere else...

Any ideas on a good ticker site that's allowed here and smaller than the ticker factory?

 

[Cruisin]

Mandy I have not gone to the dentist yet, my appointment is for 4:30.

dance class went okay, I didn't have a lot of energy though it seems.

Kelly, you can use this one.

It counts down the days like mine. It's very plain and simple but it works.

You have to click on countdown generator.

I'm sure you can figure it out. If not let me know and I will help you if I can.

 

[mandymouse]

Hi Girls

Yay, It's Friday

What are your plans for the weekend ? We are taking the girls and a couple of their friends away tomorrow night. We're going to Southampton for some shopping and they're all very excited

Robin - How did you get on at the dentisit ? I hope you're OK

Have a great weekend

Mandy

 

[Cruisin]

Good morning Mandy.

Another weekend away?? How nice for you guys Enjoy it.

The dentist thinks that my tooth could be abcessing but she's not sure. It also be my sinuses but not too likely.

She gave me a prescription for antibiotics to see if that would calm things down for now and hopefully for a LONG time It ached quite a lot during the night last night but I'm hoping it will get better soon.

If the drugs don't work then we will have to look at other options.

Funny thing that happened at the dentist. There is another patient there with a very similar name to mine, Robin Cruise as opposed to mine of Robin Kroeze (pronounced by us as cruise ). They had her chart out instead of mine and we didn't discover the mistake until almost the end of my visit

Her chart said that she hadn't had a filling since 1997 (lucky her) while I was there this past year. The dentist says, I know that you had a filling this year, how come it's not on your chart I wondered why they mentioned that the dentist had told me my teeth were all loose and I didn't remember something like that

My fault really because I usually say my name and then spell the last name to avoid any problems such as this. I figured that it was not necessary this time but I guess that it was.

So, I'm hoping to be feeling better soon This is no fun

 

[disallday!]

Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay
My, oh my what a wonderful day.
Plenty of raindrops, heading our way,
Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay!

The rain is here!!! Finally... we get some good rain showers in our area. It was starting to feel like a desert out here.

Robin, lots and lots of for you! I hope to hear that the antibiotics are kicking in soon! It's miserable when you've got a toothache! I'm glad to hear how to pronounce your last name now... I had given it an exotic sound before like Crow-ez. sorry

Mandy, enjoy your shopping with the girls!! We have a quiet weekend in store for us I'm loving it, I am actually looking forward to getting caught up with house chores...

 

[Dalpal]

Good Morning Gals,

I have to go out later..So Ill check it out then...

I havent done any more videos with that net program, ...It will only let you do 30 secs....Unless you pay 30.00.....Mike says there is a program that we have that will work....So Ill have to sit down and try to learn that...Its suppose to be even better then..the other...

Robin,
..Hope your tooth feels better soon...( I know your pain.. ...)
Tooth aches are the pits

Kelly,(Robin)
Ive always thought, Robins name was Crow-ez too!...LOL...
Now your old username, makes me laugh...Its funny to just be getting it now....after all this time...

TTFN

 

[disallday!]

You are right Betsy! Here disname makes alot of since now!!

The beautiful fall foliage is not going to be happening around here that well... where it has been soooo dry, the trees have started to lose leaves and the colors aren't that vibrant.

I can't wait to see your videos when u get them done (if you can post them on here). I'm still waiting for CW to record his video of the slingshot to a dvd so my pc can read it... he is being very slow to do this

 

[Cruisin]

Hey guys.

The crow-ez thing is okay because a lot of people DO pronounce it that way and I'm used to it.

Rick's parents actually pronounce it as "crows" (most of the time) because when they came to Canada that's how most people said it and they adopted that.

The actual pronunciation in Holland is cruise-ah

It's funny but that is the way Rick's brother says it.

Weird three different pronunciations in one immediate family, you'd think the boys would have picked up the parents way of doing it.

Oh yeah, Kelly I don't know if you know but when I first was on the DISboards my user name was CruisinKroezes. I had it change a couple years back.
