Good morning everyone!

Safe travels to everyone today! Just sitting here letting the others sleep for awhile..watched the sun come up of DCA...my Sister arrived safely about midnight last night and we are ready to go! Will be meeting Monica for a sprint to Toy Story Mania this morning and then off running like crazy people!

I am not sure if I will get to check in until after dinner tonight so have a great day!

Just finished printing my boarding passes and thought I would ketchup. Wow you have been busy. Just have to throw a few more things in the suitcases and make it through the next 24 hours and we are set to go. DD has to work today and I am having her stop by our favorite pizza place to pick up a couple of pizzas on her way home.

I'm so excited...and I just can't hide it.
I'm about to lose control and I think I like it.
Sing with me Laura.

Need to back up my computer. I am bringing 1 2GB and 3 1GB memory cards plus the laptop so I hope I will be OK.

DH is talking about getting me an iPhone. So I need to talk to some of you iPhone people to find out if it is easy enough for me to use. I don't even own an ipod and haven't even tried to figure out Bluetooth. And forget about text messaging.

See you all soon. We leave the house at about 6 AM tomorrow, but I will probably be checking in a few times today.

iPhone Pirates include Laura, Todd, ourselves and probably many others. Between us, I'm sure we can help

In less than four hours we'll be in the limo and on our way to the airport!!

The cats know what the luggage means so they are being attention hounds. Tony finished the packing last night, so now we're scrambling to get all our last minute "chores" done so we can head out the door with confidence. I'm sure we'll still forget something, but hopefully nothing major.

Hi! We made it to California. Our flights were bumpy but luckily not delayed, like several other flights. We got to our hotel around 2am Friday CA time. We got up at and then went to Disneyland. We wanted to be there for rope drop at 8am. Well my Dad's cousin was meeting us with tickets. It was after 9am till they arrived. We accomplished a lot today. I gotta get to bed as we are heading out early again tomorrow.

Oh, I almost forgot. We were sitting in the Enchanted Tiki room and my brother got an email which we though was a confirmation that our parent's flights were canceled as they were no longer joining us since my Dad was sick.

After further investigation it is an email stating they are flying out at 6:40am on Saturday. So our parents are probably getting ready now for their 6:40am flight to Cleveland and then to LAX. They are joining us afterall. They had even canceled the cruise and managed to rebook in the same stateroom. My Dad is feeling better and the doctor is telling him to go. This has been the weirdest 48 hours of my life.

I hope all of you are doing well. I will see you soon. If you see someone in a blue wheelchair with a green towel on the back it is me.

Hi ReAnSt,

This is great news. I think I know who your parents are now I'm glad to hear they are coming and everything worked out.

We got to meet Monica and Desiree last night. It was great meeting you both and can't wait to see you onboard.

I had the same problem and decided it was too late so anyone that looks at it can just think their eyes need adjusting

I will PM you the one I have and you can compare it to see if it's any better.

Michelle

Thanks again Michelle!

So hows everyone doing? Anyone packed? Am I the only one who has NOTHING packed so far? I have to run to LAX tonite at 4:30AM to meet some family members arriving for the TOAL. Then at 8AM I have a soccer referee training session for AYSO. THEN... when I get home at 11AM I'll nap... and upon awakening I'll begin packing!

SO what have I missed so far tonite... besides a grand finale of sprints!?

Nope...you aren't alone! All my piles and hanging items will go into the suitcases today! DD has cheer this morning, DS gets a haircut, kids are taking the recyclables in, as they get to keep the money for the trip. Should be about $50 bucks. Quick trip to Home Depot and I'm getting a mani/pedi at some point today. Besides that...just packing and cleaning house.

What a rollercoaster ride you've had this week. I'm glad it worked out and I hope this trip is just what the doctor ordered!


Continued safe travels to those leaving soon!

My brother-in-law KELAN is coming on the cruise. Although he has been conducting research for Harvards' Channing Lab and teaching at Harvard Medical School for over a decade... and although he has been published extensively... it seems he has just gained a greater measure of "notariety" by being published again but this time gained widespread main stream publication. Below are the links to articles he has just been published in appear below. Gee... I wonder if I got all the details straight here???

Little does he know I'm copying his email HERE ... I could not get the first link to work - maybe YOU can figure outhow to link and view it:

It all has something to do with asthma.... check it out if you have enough time to read about it:

WAY COOL!!!

BOARDING PASSES ARE PRINTED!!!!
I guess I'm going! If I have a job when I get back, GREAT, if I don't, I'll deal with it then! Nothing I can do about it now, short of not going.

Just a drive by posting. Slept like a baby last night. \mattresses were just the thing for my back. Altho it is sore from the plane. Was having breakfast at McD and saw Liz and her husband Camilo and Tap and Dap. They were heading for a buffet down the road. The hotel is so much closer than it looks on Google Earth and they showed me how to get to DTD. We will prob stay close to the hotel today. \i am still physically beat from yesterday.Charging up the batteries and scooter. Anyone staying at the Hojo, just look for a crazy man on a scooter. \i should be behind trying to catch up. We are in bldg 2 4th fllor 2420Cheryl and John should be in the air.
