Any weekend in March is good for me--today that is. LOL!

I probably won't be able to meet at the terminal. We tend not to go too early.

Now, if you also want to meet up at the sailaway party--that would be fun too. The kids can all dance together and we can all drink together!! WOOHOO!!!

This is such weird weather here---anyone else just not getting into this snowy yesterday.....sleeting last night......now it is warm and raining. The evaporation coming off the snow was amazing this morning. You would have thought someone set it on fire. My back yard is a mud hole which isn't great with two black labs. Can we say yuck!! Anyone else have doggies?

I don't think I have ever posted a pic on here. I don't want to be resonsible for weighing down the web. LOL!

Time to take a shower.

I've been doing that to my daughter. Everytime she comes near the computer I show her a video with the ships horn blowing, and one night I was playing it for my seven month old. Now my daughter keeps saying I can't wait for the cruise! I have a feeling it is all she talks about at school too, well that and her birthday that is in April!

I downloaded a ring tone tonight and my youngest and I kept playing it. Then we watched the Cruise DVD - LOL
He is really concerned he is going to get stuck with the little kids... so we have to gather those 10yos together early on!

I have two - a beagle and a basset mutt. When we built our house 2 yrs ago in Sept we had mud forever! Between the dogs and the kids, I was going crazy keeping the floors clean!
Just had to make kennel ressies for the pups... next week we are visiting a Sr living center where FIL is going to stay while we are away. MIL was finally admitted to the nursing home after her fall in Dec. She probably won't be coming home, which is for the best, since she needs a lot of care and I really can't do that, work fulltime and take care of dh, kids, FIL.... It has been quite crazy here. Typically their other son comes to care for the folks when we go away. BUT, my SIL was just diagnosed with terminal liver cancer and obviously they are not in a good space right now... I tell you our family is falling apart! I REALLY need this vacation.... and I will be the one crying on the last day as they drag me off the ship! LOL I already warned dh that I will be booking another cruise while on the ship!

Wow AJ--it does sound like you have a lot going on. Tell your SIL not to lose hope. My dad was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer and given 6 months to live. The doc was insistant that there was no way he could beat it. It was the worse kind--fast growing and invasive. Darn if those doctors weren't wrong. My dad is 95% his ole self after 2 1/2 years. No sign of recurrence---no sign of deterioration---nothing. They have no clue what to do with him now--no one lives through it all. So, don't give up hope. He is sure it was the positive mental attiutde and all the prayers that helps him. Miracles don't get handed out often, but they do get handed out. Hope your family gets one!

I know this is hard to believe, but I am actually ready to go home at the end. It may be the total 10 days of vacation or it may be that everyone is so darn exhausted by the end, but we are all usually ready. You'll find Jenn falling asleep at dinner towards the end of the cruise.

Ajeet....My heart and prayers go out to you and your family.....You are definately in the need for a vacation....

I have a Lhaso Apso. She is 15 years old. They are a great breed. She is in inside dog so not so much problem with mud. Forget about the snow! We usually have to shovel a path for her but so far this year we haven't really had any snow.

Hi all! We have a Bichon who hates the rain and the snow while it's falling. Once it's on the ground, he romps in it. Because he's so little, I'm constantly pulling snow out of his fur and wiping paws. He'd rather hold it than go outside in the rain...like he's going to melt! LOL!

Whenever a CT meet takes place, just let me know and I'll do my best to be there. Drinking on the ship (at the sailaway party and elsewhere) works for me too! If you see me in the cruise terminal, I'll be the one with the 2 surly teenagers and a bouncy 10yo! Oldest DD has already said she's going only to lay by the pool all day, every day. She thinks because it's Disney, there's only going to be little kids there. Yeah, right. I love those shirts, btw; enjoy it while you can...if I made my kids wear those, they'd throw me overboard!

 

[cnb]

Oh, and Ajeent, wishing your family lots of and prayers.

 

[dsnyfangoofy2]

The website that Kat listed above works, it just has too many http://-es.

Here it is in without the first one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tK0ceP3t1Po

And there are others to listen to once you get there.

So fun!

CNB ,
I just love your comment about the surly teenagers. I have a 14 yr old DS who also thinks because it's Disney everyone walks around in Mickey Ears singing "It's a Small World" . Also the daily comment is how boring it will be with all the little kid activties and how he will just stay in the room. Maybe a few teenager girls at the pool will spark some interest. And what could I possibly know about the cruise having been on the cruise before without him. Foolish me. I told him that I am was going to wear a shirt on the ship that says I have a 14 yr old son who is cabin 7334(I think) who needs a friend. He likes sports, music, girls and is housebroken. Please call cabin 7334 if interested.

Ajeet,
My prayers go out to you and your family.

Motherofsons.....I love that!!!!! Everything I do lately around my DD13 is strange. I would never want to be a teenager again for all the money in the world

 

[cindyd1@optonline.ne]

Still trying to get a family picture on here.

 

[cindyd1@optonline.ne]

My daughter wanted to know if any of the teens are interested in emailing or im-ing to start to get to know eachother?

I do not care if my son is interested or not. I would love someone to I'M' him who is going to be on the cruise. He might begin to think that there actually are other teens out there that will be on the cruise who actually know how to instant message or have heard of an Ipod.

I will not let him know , so when they contact him and tell him that they are going to be on the Disney Cruise he can think that I registered him for some "Dumb Disney Teen Instant Messanger". Just to hear his reaction would be priceless. Any one who contacts him should say they that are going to be on the Disney Cruise and they got his information from the Cruise
registration. Oh that should get him going for awhile. And eventually he will find out the truth. How evil I am to get a chuckle out of tormenting my teenager. If anyone is interested in his I'M" name let me know.

Now that I think about it he will not even tell me if he is contacted because then it might seem like there is a slight chance he would have fun on the ship.
