Emma, how are you holding up with the heat wave? You all are much warmer than we are. Very unusual!

My DW tried calling Rae's house about 8pm Saturday night and didn't get an answer, maybe Rae stayed on the ship for more shrimp after all!!! The Magic did not leave port until around 6:15pm yesterday, I thought people said they heard a woman screaming, "Heck no, I won't go!" Rae???

Welcome back Rae! Hope you had a great trip

It's too hot! Actually we've had a bit of a storm this morning (a very pathetic one really) so hopefully it'll be a bit cooler for a while.

I saw Pirates of the Caribbean yesterday. I really enjoyed it and Johnny Depp was great but I didn't like the monkey!

Wecome home Rae, how was it?

DP, thanks for missing me, I've been working my butt off. I've only had Sundays off and I really haven't had that day off because of the house work that builds up all work. But it is soon coming to an end, construction of the new addition is underway and soon the upper half and the back half of the house will be gone. Ha! Ha! I sure won't have to worry about cleaning that part. We'll be living in 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom and the livingroom for the next couple of months. We went to see the kitchen designer last night and I now have the kitchen layout on paper. I can't wait to finally get it all finished. We've been working with our contractor planning this since last Aug, now it's finally coming true.

Hey update on my weight lose, 17 lbs. We are going to Ohio next week I sure hope I can stay on it. Maybe I'll be able to keep it off this time since I am working outside of our home. Along walk to the refrig. LOL

Well back to my packing, everthing has to be removed from the house that isn't needed for now.
If I don't get back on for awhile it's because my DH disconnected my computer and packed it away. He's been trying to do that for years now. LOL !!! I've been begging for it to stay let's hope I win.

It is our anniversary too.

We celebrated by seeing Pirates of the Carribean (yes, we stayed to the very end) & a wonderful Japanese dinner on Friday and Shakespeare in the Park (Romeo and Juliet) last night.

To everyone else that is celebrating and anniversary this month.

Happy Anniversary!!!!!!!!!!


Welcome to all the Halloween cruisers that have joined the thread.

My DW tried calling Rae at home a few minutes ago, and still no answer. Geez, maybe she didn't get off the ship afterall, and is doing a back to back cruise???

Rae, where are you? Are you M.I.A.?

 

[rae519]

I'm back!

Please take time to read my trip reports then feel free to ask me all the questions you want!

I'd like to organize a DIS golfing match at Sally's at Cozumel - it was great fun there and we can have a blast!!

Also, fellow equestians - Nicki's was fabulous! Anyone besides us able to ride and want to go for a great time - let me know so I can plan something for us!

Hey, lots of great stuff to do - I have so much to fill you all in on but first read the cruise reports then ask questions.....

I will say this - August is tooooooo hot for us and we won't cruise south again in the summer. 110 in the shade!

Fidelio rocks!!!!
And yes, I videotaped Michael playing and a duet that Michael played with Fidelio - the man is the greatest!!!!!

Would love to say it's good to be home but would rather say 75 days left.......

And don't anyone mention shrimp to me...I not only ate my fill, but Andy's as well.....burp!

Rae (now 3 lbs heavier!)

Jan, thanks for the links. Sure made reading them alot easier than searching for them!

Rae, I loved the story about Michael (Tiger Jr.) beating you & Tom at mini-golf! He must have been on Cloud 9.

Ginger, it sounds like you're just shrinking away! What's your goal? Keep up the good work, but please be careful.

Happy Anniversary Rochelle!

Rae read your trip report sounds like you all had a great time, so glad. Now I really can't wait for our cruise. BTW- the temps. in the fall are not as bad as in the summer months.

Poohbush thank you for your concern, I'll be fine I have the help of a doctor. I would like to take off 18 more pounds before our cruising time.


Still looking for Trick-or-Treaters.

Found out today that Michael has a severe allergy to dust mites - so you know the routine - no carpeting, stuffed animals, etc, etc....don't even ask me how sweaty I am from trying to "do it all" in a day!!!!

At least we now know what the problem is and can remedy it!

Would rather be on the boat watching the sunset that tearing up carpeting.....

I was wondering what happened to you. Poor kid, we had to remove Angelina's stuffies out of her room when she was younger as well. I bet you are one tired momma tonight!!!

 

[rae519]

Andy, it's 1:30AM Peeeeroooo time...tired? What is the meaning of that word?

Rae

 

[rwpeterson]

We'll be on the Halloween cruise.

DH, me, DD(10) DD (8)

Can't wait!!!!

Wendy

 

[rae519]

Welcome Wendy and family - as soon as I get myself together I will get a new list compiled so you can "meet" the cruisers.

Also, we are having a "meet and greet" at the Promenade Lounge after the Safey Drill and before the Sail Away Party.

Please try to meet us there and if you can wear a name tag - that would help or just keep introducing yourself to everyone like I do!!!!!!!

I wrote out a trip report for each day of my last Western Cruise, if you read it and have any questions - just ask!

Gang, I will again be in my lime green shirt and lime green baseball hat - forgive me if I can't remember names......I have that old age disease called "CRS"!

Hello Everyone and Welcome Wendy and Family.

Rae: Thanks for the trip report. Sounds as if you had a great time. I cannot wait until it is our turn. I have looked forward to it all year. Add one more person to our cruise list. My niece, Alissa (18 yo) will be joining us.

I have finished my cruise shopping but I still need to pick up a few things for DH and DS.

DS is very excited about getting back to the "club". He had a great time last Halloween. This year he will be old enough to go to the club without Mom and Dad if he wants.

I have lots of errands this weekend since I failed to do any last weekend. I guess I had best get away from the computer if I expect to get anything done.

I don't know if I want to Trick or Treat or not. I do want to because it's so much fun but I think I'll feel a bit of an idiot if I'm the oldest one joining in.

Oh and Welcome aboard!

 

[TinkerBellPixie4GOAL]

Emma - you could do what I'm doing this year, although I can't be on a cruise My friend Patricia and I are dressing up as Pirates and we're going to be the ones handing out the candy while her mom sister and brother go trick or treating...sounds fun, huh??? So I guess you could still dress up and be the one to hand out the candy (or cute little toys like last year) out...that would be fun! Maybe you'll meet Sean Biggerstaff some where and he'll come to help you!!! If that happens you MUST take pictures for me!

 

[Rose_Greenthumb]

Now that's an idea but then I don't get the goodies myself! I want to be Rose Greenthumb the hobbit but I don't know how easy it'll be. I'll have to read through the emails from Jan about it and see. And you have my word that should Sean Biggerstaff turn up, I shall try and send him to you through the post!

Welcome to the REAL DISNEY MAGIC!!!!!

7th cruise! Wow! No wonder you are ready for the Magic.

So you will know your way around the ship with a few changes after the dry dock, we should all be having a blast!
