Morning all. I'm trying hard to keep up and post at least once a day so that we don't become the family that no one knows by the time the cruise comes around! That happened on our first DCL and we felt like we missed a lot in terms of recognizing people around the ship and chatting on excursions, in wine tastings etc. So on our second cruise with the banana heads, we dove in a little bit more and it was fun. This last cruise (also with the banana heads) we knew everyone and it was a blast!

Anywho. One of the questions we all answered on the 'nana head group that got us to know a bit about each other was "what do you do when you're not cruising" - ie. do you have a job? are you a volunteer for a cool organization? do you have a cool hobby?

Me: I own my own PR business and work for clients nationwide. I'm a writer by training and work out of my home. Been doing it about 2 1/2 years after 25 years in the corporate world. Hobby: Travel, travel and travel. I work to travel and my girls are becoming spoiled for any boy who will come along in their teens and 20s which is exactly how I wanted it!

How about you?

It's a snowy day in Pittsburgh (something different, huh) so those of you farther east, look out...

Have a GREAT Wednesday.

Our girls are spoiled by traveling since they have been young and we too joke all the time about the fact that they had better meet nice men someday you can support their lifestyles like their wonderful father has...LOL!!!! Heck, there is hope I married a man just like my father who kept on spoiling me so there is hope for all of these "spoiled" girls..LOL!!! That is who we are in a nut shell, we live in CT~~cold snowy CT!!!! Our dream is go to Florida one day..!!!

Hi, I'm Nikki. My DH is Steve, DD5 Jordan- she will be almost 7 at time of cruise. I have been in banking (back office stuff- not branch banking) for 12 years. Steve works in IT at UPS for 11 years. We live in the suburbs of Baltimore, Md. We have big families- we hang with them alot, and I love scrapbooking. We love Disney and cruising, this will be our second DCL. We also bought DVC on our last trip to WDW and DCL. We also spoil our only child with traveling (and everything else)- my DH and I both grew up in pretty poor families- so we never got to go anywhere, we definately are trying to "make up" for that now. we can't wait to meet everyone!!!

Hi Jeff - For whatever reason, here in central NJ it has not snowed at all this winter (we usually average about 25-30 inches a winter). Your snow has reached us today (first snow on February 20 is some kind of record here); however, not sure if it is going to accumulate or not....

 

[nikkistevej]

It's snowing here today too, it's really cold as well. I have been planning vacation stuff all day. I booked my airfare for WDW in May(1 way so far), added another ADR for my trip in May, figured out which hotel we will stay at in Atlanta in July, and printed directions as we are driving, and booked Georgia Aquarium for 1 day, we will be in Atlanta 1 day before driving to my cousin's house in Auburn. Whewwww, I've been busy. Oh, also added a week for the person renting my DVC points. I got alot accomplished while I was at work. LOL

Hey, how did you guys make your ticker shorter? My posts are so wide.
