August 28, 2004 "LOST AT SEA" Cruise

[O'BWV]

Joanna - I see you changed the name of the thread! Where are you? Are you okay?

Terry - That's the spirit! See you over there on Fridays. Looks like Jeff flew the coop anyway. If he hasn't Bobby will take care of him! Hope you're all feeling better really soon!

I just want you to know I am adding some of your pictures to the CD I am making. Your DH & you took really great pictures.

Do you remember I told you my girlfriend & you could pass for sister. I showed her & the other families at our rink your picture & they agree.

Are you going to the Pa. dis meet?

Wow, I'd love to see what your friend looks like! lol

You know, now that we're going on the 2006 cruise, we won't be going to Disney World next summer (unless I happen to inherit some money. lol), so I bet I'll be able to make it to that meet!!

Terry:

I hope you all feel better real soon! Sending pixie dust your way.

If you get addresses for Stan and Doreen please let me know I would like to send them cards also.

I also wish we lived closer to Bobby and Cindy, my Bob is not handy around the house but I could help them clean-up atleast.

I am with you about the Quiet Cove pool that sounds great about now and I really enjoyed our time there also. My friends are going with us and they will have a two year old on the cruise and I am sure we will need to retreat there .

Hi Guys...Wow Bobby, that is terrible, and they said they wanted to buy the house. If there is anything we can do let us know.

Karen, Terry...Can you please PM me Doreen's address so I can send her a card. Thanks

Mary Rose, My dear friend Mary Rose. Of course I would change the name of the thread for you. Don't you miss meeting at the Internet cafe and then joining us for breakfast AFTER you had already eaten breakfast. I must say you crack me up. LOL

Terry and Lyn...Both of you, along with your husbands were truly a pleasure to meet. Lyn, even after the cruise when we saw you at the Riverside, it was like we were friends and not internet friends. Glad you are cruising with us again in 2006.

Terry, Feel better soon


Joanna

I found you!

I came looking for this thread to post that STAN IS HOME from the hospital. I thought it was more appropriate for this thread than for the new 2006 thread. Then I read all your recent posts and am glad I came over here first.

I don't care what anyone says - this was a special group of people on this cruise and we should continue to celebrate together without censor.

So, Doreen is in the hospital? Matt is feeling better? Dori is designing t-shirts? Bobby & Cindy are in a pickle? Lyn is in? Cathy isn't? Terry is here but will countdown on the 2006 thread? Jill is sailing for Christmas? Where's Joanna? Did I miss anything?

DOREEN - I'm heading over to the other thread for more info but for now I am sending you hugs and prayers. I wish you had your laptop, too. Would they let you use it in the hospital? I'm hoping the next thing we hear is that you are home and well.

LYN - Please tell Matt that we are still thinking of him and lifting him up in prayer. He's just too cute to be feeling bad. I'm so glad you booked. I didn't make it to Quiet Cove but I'm looking forward to it this time.

DORI - I vote for t-shirts. I believe that you tried very hard to incorporate EVERYONE in a design. Let me know what you come up with. The Hurricane Frances design sounded good.

BOBBY & CINDY - Man, that really stinks. I'm so sorry that you are having trouble. Being positive is the best way to go. I'd love to help if I could. Be careful with your back and painting. That's how I messed mine up the last time. Hang in there.

CATHY - I'm sorry you won't be cruising with us. But Alaska sounds wonderful. Aren't you on the Aug Repo cruise? If so, I hope to see you there. I appreciate all your kind words.

TERRY - You go girl!

JILL - We will miss you. A Christmas cruise sounds awesome though.

JOANNA - Stan got your card and it really touched him that you thought to send it. Where are you? Hope everything is ok with you. Let me know.

Sorry to be so long but I missed alot. Stan is doing ok. Last night wasn't easy, his first night home. He couldn't get comfortable and we didn't get much sleep. I keep telling myself "baby steps", little bit at a time, healing takes place slowly. Of course he is up and down the stairs and moving around more than I think he should. And not taking the pain relievers like he should. Typical male. When he was in the hospital still groggy from surgery he was asking me if I filled my tank up with gas and charged my cell phone and went to the PO Box. Always taking care of things.

Well, thanks for letting me ramble. Goodnight all.

Darlene:

I am SO glad that Stan is home now! Wow, he's running all over the house already?!? You cracked me up when you said how he was still groggy and asking you if you filled your tank. He sounds like a wonderful husband and father, concerned about you even when still under anaesthesia!

I am going to hang out on this thread, until Friday. Then I'll go back over there and post the Official Weekly Countdown. If everyone decides to mainly chat over there, then I will post there too. If not, then we always have our first "home", here on this thread

 

[winnyis]

Darlene... you got all caught up in one big post - LOL. Glad to hear that Stan is home and I hope he continues to feel better each day. How is Sandy holding up? Im sure having her daddy home is making her feel alot better.

Bobby & Cindy.. sorry to hear that you got screwed by some "supposed" friends... I wish I lived closer so I could come and help.

Karen.. if you could also PM me Doreen's address I'd like to send her a card as well.

Awww Darlene, I got all teary eyed, when I read what Stan said while still groggy. My DH takes care of me also like that, if it wasn't for him I don't think my battery would be going on my cell.
Glad he is feeling better and that the card cheered him up, that is what it was meant to do. Now if someone would PM me Doreen's address I would be grateful.

TIA
Joanna

OH and so I can rant here and my friends would understand

I AM UNDER THE 200 DAYS MARK FOR WDW!

WOOO HOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Will you tell Mickey that I said HELLO! I won't be seeing him until our cruise in 2006. LOL

I hope you have a great time at Disney World!!! I really want to get back there....but I'm sure it won't be for a long time. So that just means I'll have to share in your excitement, and your countdown. Hehehehe

Anyone else going to Disney World this year or next year???

 

[winnyis]

Oh sure Joanna.. just rub our noses in it... Well I hope you, have a wonderful time at WDW while all your friends are stuck at their jobs and your running around Orlando stalking people who live in Avalon Park.

LOL

Im probably gonna go to Florida in January for a few days.. I think by then Bob and I will need a break from the cold.

But you go the good time of year, when we need to get OUT of the cold.

LOL about Avalon Park, I'm sure you all know we were very close to moving to FL. then DH got cold feet. BUT when we go to Orlando and we go to visit Avalon, my kids ask are we going to move to FL? and my DH answers, NO we are just taking mommy to visit to make her happy. LOL So when he shovels the snow in the winter I ask...Mitch, how are those COLD FEET LOL

[winnyis]

Bob wants to move so bad and sell every coat, pair of gloves, scarf, snowblower, etc....
He has even gone so far to tell the kids that if we move he will buy them a trampoline, a jet ski and a water slide for the pool and that we can decorate a palm tree at christmas time.

Joanna - under 200 days WOO HOO! I'll be driving down again in about 25 days - oh lordy! Thanks for changing the thread name - you're the best!


Darlene - That was the best recap I've ever seen LOL! So glad Stan is home and Yes it sounds like typical male behavior - good sign - he must be on the mend. Tell him we're asking for him!

Darlene:

I am so glad to hear that Stan is home and doing well. Now don't forget to take care of yourself as well as Stan.


Joanna:

If you had asked me at Riverside if I would be cruising with Disney again my answer would have been no. Not because of anything wrong with DCL it's just that both my kids are older now (24 & 17) so I thought we would try other cruiselines. But once I heard everyone was going again in 2006, well who could pass up a trip like that?

Good Morning Everyone!!!

Are we all going to have a magical day!!! I just got off the phone with Doreen. The neurologist came in last evening and has scheduled her for a MRI. He thinks this was caused by a migraine. She may be coming home today. Everyone hopes so. She says hello to everyone and Mary Rose you really made her day. She misses talking to all "her friends".

Darlene, Doreen asked about Stan and Lyn about Matt.

She is going thru DIS withdrawal and can't wait to get home and back on the boards.

Am I posting to the right board please direct me in the right location seeing that my "navigator" is unavailable to guide me!

Terry- I was glad to see your posting.

Ginny- I will pm you.

Well I have to get some work done but I leave this board on all day to I can catch up with all the news.!!! Also I have to get some work done so I can pay for my Disney adventures!!!! Where oh where is my "RICH" Prince Charming"???

 

[kap158]

IT is an hours drive from Williamsburg,Va where I live I am going to check it out this weekend. Maybe I can Book the WED Suite for the weekend. I called Doreen, she was sleeping still don't know when she is coming home I will keep you posted!!!
