8/10/2008 - Mexican Party Cruise - Who's Here??

[dlgrn3]

I bought the pillowcases too............5 of them from 'gradysmom' I love them, they are beautiful, but my husband thinks I am crazy also... I did get permanent cloth markers at Michaels, because they have great colors, and last year when I brought the pillowcases the characters signed everything in black, because I did not have my own pen......it still looks nice, but I think bright colors will be better.

a tag for BRIANNA, Brentwood CA?

Also do you mind if I use your map/calendar to make t-shirts?

Thanks Debbi

Oh, Debbi, I am sooooo sorry from missing Brianna from the tag list. I will make one right now and would you want to check that site in say 5 minutes?

About the T-shirts, oh I don't know. I feel like I could do better, but if you like it. You might want to ask the original DISigner, also?

That's who I bought mine from too. We did the pillowcase signing on our last cruise and one of the signatures bled. I need to look back at my markers (I think they were fabric markers) and read the instructions. I think it might have been a matter of not heat-setting the signatures. I hope that was it, I want to make sure they're perfect this time.

How do you heat set the signatures?

Hi Andria,

I am making a quick stop here, then I have to be gone.
Put a lot of Aloe gel(you can get them at Target. More natural the better) all over. If you can put the bottle in the fridge before, it feels even better.

When I went to this deserted island in Japan with my best friend about 19 years ago, we went to burn ourselves all day long for three straight day. Forth day, we could not move. We were completely toasted. My friend's relatives were living there and she told us to just take the wild grown Aloe plants, and open them and place them on our skin. It really worked and in the afternoon, we had sun"screen"s on and off went to the beach again.

Nature works the best, I guess.

If you can go to Whole Foods, they have more natural Aloe Vera gel and cheaper.

As for the name tags, I can make them a bit smaller and try to fit them on one page. Or you can just use magnet strips and so you don't waste your mag sheet.

Hope things work!

Since I will be going to Michael's to get fabric markers() ) I can pick up the magnet strips. I will print them on phot paper and then cut them out.

Thanks for the tips!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I've read that it's as easy as putting it in the dryer. But, I want to find my markers, I think they have instructions.

Ok Panic continues. I still haven't even started making magnetic signs for our door. I need to buy the magnetic paper. I need to buy a new video camera and possibly a camera as well. I have too much work to do. We haven't even considered packing anything yet. AAACCKKKKK.

Sorry you feel so stressed. I haven't packed anything yet either if that makes you feel better.

Luckily, I signed up both of my kids for Vacation Bible School for the week before the cruise. That will give me 3 whole hours a day to pack and prep for the cruise! I would be stressed if I didn't have that to look forward to.

I am stressed because I bought a new gown and need it altered. DS needs his tuxedo pants altered too. I should go get that done ASAP!

I bought the "permanent cloth markers" at Michaels and they state "no heat setting needed" but I am by no means what-so-ever a pro on this so I am keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for "honest advertising"

I think I've read that it's as easy as putting it in the dryer. But, I want to find my markers, I think they have instructions.

Thanks, I can steal somebody's idea and make an arrangement, but never can do originals. I think the DISigner was Brooklyn. I will look into it, but she has a great photobucket site with a lot of designs and ideas and clip art. Makes you want to buy more mag sheets .

I just had my new camera delivered yesterday from Circuit City.com via Fed EX. They delivered it to a house nearby instead of my house! I just happened to check the tracking website and it said DELIVERED. But it wasn't to me. Thanks goodness for honest neighbors!!!! But now I am ready for the trip with my new Kodak at hand!

I have issues with FedEx. DH's best friend works for them so I don't bring it up much. They have lost 3 of my boxes in the past. We sent a package to New Hampshire and it was delivered somewhere in Detroit! Someone signed for it and never returned it. We tried to find it and couldn't. You are lucky your neighbor had it!

Happy Saturday everyone. I spent my morning getting a manicure and buying stuff to prevent sea sickness. I have been on 3 cruises before and only one night of sea sickness. I am more worried about the catamaran type boats we are taking on our excursion to Las Caletas. It's 50 minutes and that's a long time to be sea sick. I bought "Less Drowsy" Dramamine and Bonine and the bands. I called my doc to see if he would prescribe me the patch but he wants me to come in for an office visit just to get that prescription. I know I might be silly but I think that is lame! It's a sea sickness patch for goodness sake!

Believe me. Fed Ex knows I am not a happy camper!!!

Rainy day at a Hideaway Beach in PV? I cannot imagine...
