And I'll tell you my dunes on Maui story!![]()
Groundhog Day grew out of a mainly German superstition
that if a hibernating animal casts a shadow February 2
-- the Christian holiday of Candlemas --
winter will last another six weeks.
If no shadow is seen, legend says spring will be early.
Wow I had no idea. Isn't Candlemas the feast of St. Blaze when you get your throat blessed and they hold two candles on either side of it, sort of in an X shape?
I am all caught up!!!!!
Um, DW had a story from when we were dating. She worked as aN IT training person who used to go all over the country. One ST. Patty's day (evening) she was sleeping in her hotel room (where she had been on a project for several months) and a drunk person tried to get in her room. She called security, and the person convinced them that it was their room. Security didn't bother to check and unlocked the door (it had the chain on) She was a little upset, and explained to the security person that it was her room, and had been her room for several weeks. (I was the one who got really upset; imagine her coming back to her room after a party and finding a sleeping drunk in her bed...)
At any rate,
I think Mark is in charge of raiding Signals at 4:00 in the morning when we run out of Booze, Lisa has beautiful children, and the world is a beautiful place...
PS, Hi geffric, Baby is doing much better, and really only had the 1 problem. I will post about dad in the other place (then read the next 30 pages on this thread while I catch up over there...)

I'm still trying to catch up here- about 20 pages behind!
But I wanted to interject in the current conversations and add a picture here.
This is of my youngest two- it's a collage type picture thing that my sister made for me because this year they allowed us to purchase up to half a page in the yearbook to add whatever we wanted. I wanted to add stuff because it seems that every year- all THREE of my kids (even in different schools and throughout the years) never seem to be in any of the pictures except for the class ones.... oh and the ones like if they are in that group (like band, athletics and stuff). what I mean is the "extra" pictures thrown in here and there and such- there's always tons of those pictures but never MY kids in them, yanno? I don't know what it is- maybe my kids are running around avoiding photographers (for the yearbook) the entire year?![]()
So anyway, it was only $10 for half a page and since my youngest two are in the same school so this year I can get away without having to buy THREE yearbooks (only one for these two kiddos)- I figured why not add a half page too. The $10 is still way less than the extra yearbook I'm getting out of buying this year!
Here it is for your viewing pleasure. See if you can figure out which one is a picture taken on the cruise?
(it should be pretty easy... but we'll see)

I'm going to see if maybe she has time to make me a "collage" type thing like this- with pictures from our last cruise. And if so, I'll add it to my sig line like others have been doing lately. I wish I could figure out how she does these things so I could do them myself!
Bip, that is a great idea for the yearbooks.I'm still trying to catch up here- about 20 pages behind!

PJ & I were tearing up during the kid's graduation last cruise. We were both bawling by the end of Dreams. Just a warning for y'all.

The dunes of the cape. Remind me to tell you a story about that on deck 7!![]()

You could have knocked over DW this week when she learned that Ash Wednesday is not a Holy Day of Obligation!We looked it up and sure 'nuff, it isn't...then she called a schoolmate. Her friend didn't know either! Both of them exclaimed: "All these years they told us it was!"

Eight years of Catholic school and my mom still teaches there AND I have never heard that rule either . . .Nope. Days that the church gives out something for free aren't Holy Days of Obligation. (I learned that in Catholic school.)
