Like it?!?!??!
J.G.E. Enterprises has a patent pending on it. Mark got it from some guy in an alley in NY City, but promised it was of the highest quality, and is available for a very generous price from any or all J.G.E. vendors. If you're interested ivanova drop me a line

Cheers,
Grumbo

I am looking forward to reading The Path Between the Seas starting next week. I bought it in December, but them the dreaded tax season hit. Almost over. We have next Monday off so a nice long weekend.

We usually have enough to finance at least one excursion per cruise. Our's sits in a big bacardi bottle and the kids make a big production of rolling the change and making plans for it.

In my role as ophthalmic advisor to the sisterhood, if there is anyone in the Baltimore area thinking about LASIK, e-mail me. My work is having a contest and that is the prize.

For anyone looking for a deal on t-shirts, I've got two!

Imagestation is having a sale until 4/18 on white t-shirts only. They are $5.99 each. You can upload the DCL Survivor Logo and then order your shirt. If you choose regular shipping, there is no charge! Great deal!

I also was checking out Chadwick's Outlet catalog. They have plain t-shirts in a number of colors for $2.99 each and fitted t-shirts are $4.99. There a lot of other styles that are under $5 each.

We have one of those 5 gallon Polland Spring Water bottles that we keep change in. Ours has about 3 inches of change in it and that's mostly quarters. We'll be starting to roll it in June, and then Lenny will take it to the bank a little at a time. Last time it didn't have as much in it and we got over $800! Looks like I'll have money for all the pins they're going to have on our cruise.

There was one VERY surprised little girl in Canada today when she went to open our mailbox! There was a key for the "parcel" compartment, and in there was a package for Lara. "Look, Mom - Tracy sent me a BOOK"!!! (She hadn't opened it yet). I asked her "how do you know" and she said - "it's right here on the Customs Tag, Mom - BOOK"

She rushed to open her gift as soon as we got home, and promptly curled up on the couch to read it right away. She also taped the note from Tracy and Bill inside the front cover "so I'll remember forever when I got this".

Thank you SO much for your kindness and generosity! We can't wait to meet you in August and to thank you in person.

Arlene

BTW - No quarters yet! The joys of Canada Post!

It was spitting stuff on my way home from work tonight. The strange thing was that it was 46 degrees out.

I love the new avatar, Jenny! Very cute!

 

[jhemond]

That's my furbaby! Ain't he the cutest? He's my little pretty boy.

 

[kmiles]

He is adorable!

 

[jhemond]

He is adorable!

Occasionally he is. Sometimes he's just a pain.

 

[gassmandy]

Have to agree with kmiles, Jenny---he's adorable. But then again, according to my 3 y.o. nephew--I have a "rat" too. And I love all 3.5 pounds of her!!
