[captaincrash]

WOW.................

800 hundred posts........... only had 250 or so in the first 5 years........

I'm on a roll............ or maybe I should get a piece of CAKE !!!!!

Mark

Now... seein' as it's not your birthday (it is not? right??) ... do you have ANY IDEA how difficult it is to FIND a cake image that is not a "Happy Birthday mark"... or a "Cake to MARK the 200th..." this or that thing? Yeah... finding the "right" cake for you has been a bit of a challenge this morning, but alas I did find 3 that might be "fitting"... let it not be said that anyone serves more imaginary cake on our thread than Captain Crash! Choose one, both or neither of these 3 cakes which I humbly offer fer your consideration Mark...

OK...

... I think it's time for me to make a quick EXIT....

<chuckles>

I gotta get going to Disneyland now....​

It's always so shocking to hear of that situation in someone so young. Keeping that family in my thoughts & prayers.

Thanks Enna... your thoughts and prayers are appreciated...

Good Morning Everyone
There will be no way I can ketchup. I feel guilty. Now I have a confession to make.............I can't deny this any longer because it is becoming a reality but boy can life be tough sometimes.

My DH just signed a lease yesterday for a apartment in Chicago. I am going to try and move to Chicago by the beginning of summer. I have been in this house for 16 years and so much clutter to go through and hurry up to get this house ready to sell, court with ex will not be fun. DD starting high school alot needs to be done there. My DD has been in the same school district her whole life.

One of the reasons I had posed the question about taking kids out of school a million pages ago was for this reason. Brooke will miss the first 5 days of school. We have made the decision that the cruise was booked first and well the experience and family can't replace that.

This decision has not come lightly and I can't tell you how many times we changed our minds in the process. Thanks for reading this. Letting others know can only help me 1. to do the things I need to because most of it is on me.

Tina- I am hopefully seeing the light at the end of this very tunnel. My Mom had decided to sell her house after being in it for close to 29 years. It's taken almost a year to clear out 29 years of stuff. It was amazing what was buried in the basement. We've had several yard sales, made donations and just simply chucked. (We also played junk relocation with my Sister who lives in FL.) Having been the voice of reason in this and forcing my Mom clear out the clutter, be open and willing to let stuff go. Don't keep it because your kids may want it someday. In most cases we don't.


GoodLuck.

Sorry to interrupt the typical posting of blah blah blah, rugby, t-******, groundhogs, room assignements and when our website will be up... I just had to share this...

Sensing that I am a bit down today because of my Dad, my DH and DD just gave me my birthday present...deciding what our plans will be for vacation this summer. We were originally going to sail Carnival...NOT. DH took it upon himself (I am the compulsive planner, not he) and booked us on RCCL Explorer of the Seas!

It sails 6/9 and sails from Cape Liberty, NJ. NO AIRPORTS!!! I am not afraid to fly at all, I just hate the hassle!!! It will be great to wake up, hop in the car and in a couple of hours be on the ship! Ports are Kings Wharf, St Thomas, St Maarten and San Juan.

You may now return to our usual blah, blah, blah...

Karen that is one AWESOME B-day present! You gonna have a great time!

regretfully, thiss seems to be the case. If so then this is our first case of it in over 15 years!

Seems kind of sad to think anyone could THINK they'd get away with pinching enough random parcels to make the risk worth it? (is it ever worth it?) Or maybe it's just a mismatch of personal capabilities to the job with a new driver? My sister in laws' brother - who lives near by is a regional supervisor for UPS. When-ever I've had occasion to meet a UPS driver I've always casually mentioned this fact .... "I'm family with management".... not meaning to threaten anyone - just that we DO get a LOT of UPS and FedEX deliveries. And with UPS at least we would like normal and customary service. I just might mention this instance to my SILs' brother come monday. I'm out of town fer most of today as we're planning on meeting another family to hit Disneyland. Then off to a birthday gathering for the spouse of one of my oldest and best friends... conveniently half way between us and DL. The family we are hooking up with for DL has a parent who appears to be metastatic with cancer. She already had a kidney removed last year to try and forestall the spread - but the signs are emerging now that last years surgery was not in time to save her. The weeks and months to come will conclusively confirm the spread and stage 4 condition - as she just confided with us last week that they found spots on her last scan. Sad... as they have a 1.75 year old boy and no other family locally. They are the nicest folks too.... and of our age (low 40s).

At any rate, back to my search for my 7 question posting which I posed for this weekend...

Oh Crash how awful about your friend, and so young too! I will pray for her and her family.

Ah Tina Sorry about the amount of stress you're going through right now. Am I incorrect in thinking you guys were going to move to Florida? Moving is the pits too.....hope the clearing out and packing and selling goes as smoothly as possible.

Are you still cruising the Repo? Sorry I'm confused by your post about that (you know I'm easily confused)

Morning Enna how's Enna-let this morning? Better, I hope!

Andy how about Angelina, is she feeling better this morning?

MR--

You make a very good point about appropriate sun protection when participating in outdoor sports. I don't even think the "Sport" types of sunblock are really intended for that particular kind of use.

Good Morning

Feel like I just left here
