8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC #4

Something to give us all a laugh, a bit at my expense.

Anyway, I think everyone in my town knows now, -and now the Dis,

Best not go there for anything else 'men' are embarrassed about buying.

Must be a small town, like mine. We get those "moments" every now and then.
Not to you...but pretty funny to me. I needed the laugh.



Bad news for me and the Disneyland weekend Meet and Greet.
I am not getting any better with this flu I have...or whatever it is...so we've canceled the trip. I just don't have the strength to do it. Besides the fact that I am still hacking away so badly that I'd probably be tossed out or mugged by the crowd. It just wouldn't be fair to anyone around me.

I'm so sorry I'm going to miss meeting the group that was going!!!

I probably would have walked out. Or run. And probably straight to McDonald's....it's so much easier!

At least with boys trouble is a bit more accepted. In my case it is oldest DD. She is not very social or confident. This sometimes leads to her behaving in some immature manner. She tries to be funny but can rarely pull it off without offending virtually everyone around her. It just breaks my heart when she tries and fails. She can come across as being a brat to be honest.
Next week we are shipping both DD's off to the country for a few days. They can hang around Bill's Mom and play with the horses and cows and hopefully come back ready it hit it for the rest of the school year.
We, on the other hand, have some fun things planned while they are gone.

That's funny, I was thinking that too!

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't the spelling of your email wrong???????? Or am I still having a senior day

Just a senior moment for me or that is what I will blame it on.

Hello All,

Please do not ask too much about my absence, lets just say thank you to Webmaster Regina, who is a loverly lady, and has sorted the thing out.

Sometimes a couple of small things, escalate due to circumstances being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and things that are not 'clear' on an ongoing thread, might be misunderstood by the people doing a fine job moderating us all.

Thank you for the high number of e.mails or PM's many from here, and hopefully you will all accept me back.

Whats happened this week, well we had two very large storms here very windy, I think the first was the storm from Florida with the tornadoes, that went through East USA with Snow storms over to us with more energy over the Atlantic.

I lost further weight down to 15.4 now thats 13% of me gone since December 31st.

Alice DD has passed a high number of 'top of the class' exams, with certificates for three, being the best, and had to have surgery on her teeth at the same time (nasty).

Stephen DS, has been in trouble at school, and needs a lot of love at this time, the thing is if your teachers think you are a naughty boy, you then get treated as one, and it circles down wards.

I had some 'results' on my ongoing tests with now two Diagnosis of my condition, so at least now, they know whats wrong with me they can try to solve it,

The funny thing is when the Consultant says can I bring in x number of medical students, and when I agree, he says to his 5/6 trainee doctors, now see this guy, he has two very rare conditionals that are text book / essay type stuff and you most likely will never ever see this again in your career!

Not sure if thats good or bad?

Anyway, nice to be back.

Andrew you will be just a shadow by the time we see you.
Gald you are back.

I couldn't resist!!!

Also... somtimes teachers and how they handle a child makes a big difference!!! I am giving your son the benefit of the doubt!!

OOOpppssss I did spell it wrong its micmsecheryl@yahoo.com

What do you expect , I'm a bloody Pirate , we dont spell so good ..

What do you expect from me.... I am getting old !!!! Never to old to have a drink with you!!!

You should know better, it wasn't on her cell phone... she would never notice!

Okay so you know me very well!!! When I was looking for a joke for Andrew I could not pass this one up. Remember this is all in fun and I have a DSIL that is a lawyer!!!

 

[m&m's mom]

Does anyone know if you can cancel a Super Shuttle reservation after you make it online? I think we will probably go with them but I don't want to get locked in.

 

[m&m's mom]

This is so funny. There was a knock at the door and it was the just-barely-5 yo boy next door. He wanted my 11 yo DD to come outside and play with him. He think Megan is so cool and she plays very well with him. His older sister who is Megan's age is way too cool to play with her.

Well since this is only my 2nd DCL cruise, this will be my first CC gift. It's fine. I think all I got from RCCL was postcards and maybe some shopping coupons, I can't remember exactly.

There seems to be quite a few of us, that will be on their 2nd cruise. I just wish it would hurry up and get here.

Hi all
The weather was so nice here that I had to go out for a walk. First bit of exercise since battling the flu. Gotta catch up diet wise with Kris and Andrew. You both are very much an inspiration

Coral, Thanks for the reminder about the DIS meet at the Doubletree That will be lots of fun too

Andrew glad they finally put a diagnosis to you and that it is treatable
Had to laugh about your laxative story. Both DH and I have had similar digestive problems due to the diet. Definitely sounds like a Saturday Night Live skit

Crash, It is hard to time the doctor visit just right. If you go too soon they may miss something and if you wait too long the illness gets severe

We brought our kids to the doctor years ago. One had a sore throat and the other had no symptoms (just along for the ride). Well the doctor decided to test them both for strep just in case. As he walks away with both swabs I remember wondering how he was going to tell them apart. Sure enough the kid with no symptoms turns up positive for strep and the sick kid (with all the physical symptoms of strep) negative. I had to bring them back to be retested and wouldn't administer the antibiotics until I had the second results. The second time both kids came back positive for strep

Hope your family is better soon Crash. Lots of clear fluids

HOWEVER ... if this new opportunity works out, I'd happily make a trek to the Social Security Office, or pay the fee for a new BC Just found it amusing that the passport sagas continue for so many of us in so many different ways.

You should be able to use either an expired passport, or get a new SS card (they should mail you one if you call them).

Bad news for me and the Disneyland weekend Meet and Greet.

Hope you get better soon, we'll miss you.

Both of mine play well with their younger cousins too (ages 5 and 6).
When I was younger, the kids in our neighborhood often hung out together regardless of age. Kick ball, running bases, red rover were fun regardless of the age. Don't see that in the neighborhood we live in now

Happy Birthday Robert!!!!​

Vanity plate for today....I had to share this one, it's good! (On a black VW Passat)

BLK PRRL

Don't ya just love it?

And here's a cute story about my very good friend's dd9. They are driving to FL for Spring Break, so they decided to get a tune up on their car and make sure everything is in working order so they hopefully don't have any breakdowns. They were discussing this in front of her and she popped in with the funniest comment....she says (in her best Capt. Barbossa voice)... "Well, is not gettin' there that's the problem........It's gettin BAAACK!"

 

[buckifan]

Best wishes to all of FLU victims. Sorry to hear so many of you are down with it.

 

[msaseifert]

Hi everyone. I am back to work so don't have much time now. Am walking on my ankle better now and getting around but still sore - go to 2nd physical thepary visit tomorrow.

I feel so bad for everyone that has the flu - its really been going around here too. Once it grabs ya, its hard to get rid of it so wishing everyone quick recoveries.

Question about dining - if you are currently scheduled for late dining but really want early dining; Is is possible that when we link early dining pirates that we can include those folks that want early but have late in our dining link? Would that then give them a better chance of getting early dining? Did that make sense? Just a random thought -

I am so jealous of everyone who is getting out for Spring Break next week, ours is not until the following week so one more week of work here! To those that have trips scheduled, have fun and stay safe!

Yes, you can. I just canceled them for this weekend.

I saw before where you'd said that you would be worried about a limo driver not showing up. We've always been given the company's dispatch phone number to call, just to double check that the driver is there waiting for us. I know Pronto gave me their number to do this.
One time...out of all the times we've used a limo company...the driver wasn't there. We called, and they sent someone right away. I think we only waited maybe 20 minutes.
