Bonnie - Relax, take a deep breath.....

Now let it out.....

Okay, you with me?

The pin pictures are on DizPins and were taken at a Scoop's Pin Talk on Wednesday. No, the pins are not on sale yet. They are cruise line exclusive merchandise and won't be available except on the ship during the two PC cruises.

WHEW!!! I can breathe now! Had nightmares last night thinking I missed out on the pins!!! Now I just have to make sure I get them!!

Love the maps!!! Can NJ and PA get any bluer?

Dee (who dreams of any kind of veranda)

Dee, an open invitation is extended to you to come and visit us on our verandah. I love having a small outdoor space. As I am always awake early, I love to sit out there and write my journal while Allan and Joy wake up. I have taken some wonderful pictures of sunrise over the Bahamas. This is my quiet, down time which I wouldn't trade for anything. I also love sitting out there in the early evening and putting my make up on before the evening's activities. (Sometimes it is so hot, the make up just slides straight off again, of course, but you pays your money, you takes your chance!). And the last 5 minutes at night before bed, in the cool of the evening, is very calming. Come share a few moments with us!

Bonnie, go to the WISH board for the sisterhood thread on getting healthy.

My husband, being unhappy with my mood swings, bought me a mood ring the other day so he would be able to monitor my moods.

We've discovered that when I'm in a good mood, it turns a beautiful blue-green. When I'm in a bad mood, it leaves a big red mark on his forehead.

Maybe next time he'll buy me a diamond.

Okay that's it. I am making a personal commitment to go over there and read the ENTIRE thread! Lord knows I am in current need of getting healthy (or undergoing a bronchial transplant, whichever comes first).

I LOVE that. I don't often laugh out loud on my own, but I did at that one. Well done Robin.

Beautiful day in Florida!! About 80 degrees and dry air!! Mowed the lawn, fed my plants and palms, hosed down the front porch and lanai and am now resting while Addison naps. Going to the pool when she wakes up!!!
Hope everyone up north is having decent weather today, too.

 

[kmiles]

Weather is beautiful today. Nice and sunny!

The lawn looks like a friggin' weed infested abandoned lot but I'm too busy trying to figure out what excursions I want to do to worry about such trivial matters!

It's an absolutely beautiful day here in South Jersey Amanda. After all the rain we've had the past few weeks, this is a welcome relief!!!!!

We're getting ready to head down to near Atlantic City for my neice VJ's surprise 30th Birthday Party.

 

[Grumbo]

Beautiful day here. Sunny, bright, wearing sweat shirt with track pants!! So good to get rid of boots and overcoats. Hockey this morning and Doris and I are off to Toronto to the Home Show and supper!!!
Have fun folks

Cheers,

Barbara, how was DL and your date ? I hope Minnie and Mickey are looking forward to seeing Bill and I in 46 days!!!

 

[Mom2Belle&PeterPan]

Hi Tracy,

We had a magical, pixie dust date! We did see Mickey, gave him a hug for you, and let him know that you and Bill will be here sooooonnnn!!! Minnie was busy making sure all your favorite restaurants are in order for your visit!

We had lunch at the Blue Bayou, and we talked about how we are looking forward to having dinner there with you and Bill in May!

Our favorite part of the day was riding the new Buzz Lightyear ride. It is all new and pretty, and of course, so much fun. Brian, however, steered the vehicle so I had less of a chance of good targets, LOL. Next time, I will drive and blast!

Can't wait until you both get here!!!

Barbara

It is sure indeed a beautiful day in Pa!! Mid 60's!!

Bob is wearing shorts and is hosing down our front porch this very minute so i can put my rocker and porch couch out with plants hanging down from celing!! i am wearing capris and sandals and opened all the windows throughout the house. What a feeling to have such a spring breeze flowing through!!

My parents and my sister/husband and my darling 3 month old nephew will be here this afternoon for the weekend.

Have a greaat day everyone!

I see if i can introduce my sister on chat tonight!!

Glad you had a good time Barbara!! I love going on a date with my hubby too!!!

 

[mickeyfan1]

Good afternoon. We have the windows open!!!!!! It is just beautiful, spring is getting here. We went to a tile store and found the Perfect Tile for the backsplash, it is Italian, a medium rust color. The same color as our ceramic floor (qwhich is a much lighter shade) and 3 accent tiles for over the stove. The store loaned us an entire box of tiles and the accent tiles, talk about great customer service! I can't wait to go back next week and buy all the tiles, grout, float, mastic, and correct trowel.

Doesn't take much to make me happy! And we got 2 chairs for the deck, and DH brought the umbrella up from the basement and set it up. Now all we need is a table and soe sort of divider panel so I don't have to see the neighbor's deck a foot from mine.

And for me today is momentous, it is 4 months and 9 days till I leave for the cruise, and today is 4/9. That won't happen again!

I hope all of y'all have a great weekend, and if I can remember, CHAT TONITE!!!!!!!

 

[DenverVal]

We enjoyed bright sunshine and mid-60s temps today, but it has clouded over and they're predicting 6-12 inches of the white stuff by the end of tomorrow. Had to post this because when I do, it doesn't happen....here's hoping! Gotta love the weather in Colorado!

Makorin, you are very welcome! It was my pleasure to add Japan to the Ship of Fools map! My DH spent about 4 years of his childhood in Sasebo. He has very fond memories of Japan!

 

[Denine]

I missed yesterday and had about 10 pages to read today.

Wine We have brought our own wine and cork screws on several occasions and also gotten a cork screw from room service. They shouldn't charge a fee when they said they wouldn't in the first place.

airplane: very cool!

weather: great! We also planted our first tree in our new yard today.

leaving in the morning for Hilton Head for the week. Hope I don't have too much to catch up on when we get back.
