8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 12

[Grandma x3]

wow!! tonite...i talk to myself!! where is everyone tonite? hello?

oh...it is almost 1:30 on the east coast...so maybe everyone is sleeping?

i know of one person who may be here...cuz she is a new lurker that i have hooked on the boards...and i think soon she'll have the courage to post....


you know who you are!!!


she will be cruising with us, and i'm trying to get her to join the thread....

come out come out wherever you are!!!!

Hey - The salon where I go doesn't allow dogs in the shop - against health regulations. The owner is foolish regardless - the sweetest dogs may react agressively for seemingly no reason. Your child sitting down close to the dog might have triggered some pack/territorial reaction. I'm no "dog whisperer" but I've had so many dogs and trained them - and since I have had a lot of German Shepherds I am so cautious as they can do so much damage.
So I'm being long-winded - but I'd say find a new hair cutter!! Speaking as an attorney you might have some legal recourse however - I don't think its worth the effort. Its' more important to reassure your child that dogs are okay - and not to get too close to other dogs.
I would check the local ordinances - perhaps lodge a complaint - even the local humane society. Also, when not upset - speak to the owner and explain why you won't return to her shop.

So - I'll stop going on and on ==-but as a Mom also - I can relate to how upset you must be!

Stefania -

Soooooo
where ya from?
who's in your fam?
do you like pirates?
do you like groundhogs?
are you easily offended?


I'm kidding!
Welcome to the best gosh darn thread on the Dis!
Check out the info and summaries in the first post.

This thread has roughly 486 'inside' jokes at this point, so if we don't make any sense it is because of one of 2 reasons:

a. it is a rehash of an old joke from 1,000 pages ago, so just ask
OR
2. we are actually making no sense (it happens more than you might think)

Again, welcome & thank you for choosing Capt. Jack's Reposession Repositioning thread.

Hi all. Just spent quite a few hours in the emergency room with DH. It appears he may have suffered a minor stroke. They are keeping him over night for observation & plan on running some more tests on him tomorrow. His symptoms were minor & only lasted for a short time, so there is no permanent damage & they feel that this was more of a wake up call to change his lifestyle. The plan is that he will be released & sent home with a regimen of medication. We were suppose to leave first thing Saturday morning for Hilton Head, but now I'm not sure I want him taking that long drive. Guess I will wait to see what happens tomorrow. Doubt I'll sleep much tonight.

I may be a littler later than the other but you have my prayers as well. I am sure you are glad that you were provided this warning to allow for the needed changes. They are never easy. Best wishes for your family. Lois

 

[sk8ingmom]

OK Stef the overachiever - pic and pirate in your sig before the captain even had a chance to threaten you!

Good job.

So do you have a cabin assignment or GTY?

 

[stefania]

Thank you everyone for making me feel so welcome. I was very nervous to get on. See Shannon was right everyone is very friendly. Thanks again!!!!

Hi Lois,
I see you are a Grandma also - are your grandchildren going on the TOAL also?? And - I just noticed that you are following up w/5 day Bahamas cruise - wooohooo!!!!! Too cool.
How many grandkids do you have and how old - oh, I'm being so nosy, huh?

Only my youngest grandson is going on the TOAL - school schedule precludes the other two from going. They're with me for spring break & we're trying to think of some other trips/cruises we can do so they don't feel too left out.

Sorry no grandkids this trip. Believe it or not my daughter does not want me to take them out of school any longer and here in Missouri they start school in the middle of August. I have a grand son who is 13 and a grand daughter who is 11. They are the two short people in the picture in my signature. That picture was taken on thier 3rd cruise last fall (9/06)

We see the kids almost weekly as they only live about 10 miles from us. They are the light of my life made having and putting up with my kids all worth it.

We will be celebrating a 21 anniverary so we wanted to do a back 2 back. I think 3 stops at castaway in one week will be well worth the extra money. WEll I need to try to go back to bed tomorrow is a work day. Lois

Still Thurs. the 12th here...

I used to hate getting my performance evals - usually pretty good, just scary.
Now I don't mind getting them. I hate giving them!

 

[sk8ingmom]

I'm just about done editing my Hawaii vacation photos & since I'm here by myself, I thought I'd share a few.

I'm going to upload all of them at work tomorrow (free connection & unlimited bandwidth - important since I have HUGE photos...have I mentioned that I love my camera? )

ANYWAY... it won't hurt my feelings if you don't trek to photobucket to look at all my photos when I post the link tomorrow, but I have a few smallish versions that I would like to share.

FAM STUFF
Luau night.

There is a story about how we got here....

DH proves that it is, in fact, possible to stand at attention on a surfboard

Who surfs without bending their knees?????
