Poor sticky.......i think we have all had that experience...my eldest had a secret "stone" collection of special white stones [yep, thats right, he didnt realise they were dog p##p].....so had to dispose of his precious collection..he was 7, now he's 24 and still cant forgive us

ah, kids..

hey
thats awesome...we'll get to the party around 6 ish, then we are having dinner at grand floridian cafe 7.30....then be back for candy and fireworks at 9 ish...look for cheshire cat ears and tail on me [I've got a #4 clipped bleached blonde head, and hubby will be in rabbit ears/hat from Alice in wonderland].

we also wear aussie lanyards...so do stand out a tad

cant believe its nearly here......although just tried on my formal frocks and since I've been working out at gym the last few months I've lost my bust, and strapless dresses are now loose.. so may need to buy some over there..........

11 sleeps

 

[battymum]

Karen,

Have you lost count?

 

[australiankaren]

Karen,

Have you lost count?

i Know.......crazy busy week...

so

9 MORE SLEEPS...........OR 8 days 20 hrs to go

 

[battymum]

Hey, how come my ticker says 1week 3 days and yours 1 week 1 day?

 

[australiankaren]

cause I set my ticker for the time I get to the airport in sydney...so 7am on 15th sept.....and I also set my disboard at local time in sydney not florida...so ticker is more betterer for me

anyway......

8 sleeps to go

 

[Tara2004]

Will you actually sleep or just lay there and think like I do.


Not long now. It's all starting to happen. Have you had much sent to your room? I'm eyeballing the camera leds and a external flash for my canon camera.

 

[australiankaren]

hey

am tracking 4 largish parcels from amazon....2 are delivered already, 2 are in jacksonville???

tried to do a disney shop, didnt take my credit card...due to australian address attached to card...WT??? so cant do that now....

8 sleeps...or not sleeps with bad dreams about missing my flight...seriously you'd think i was going in for heart surgery, the amount of stress I'm putting on myself

 

[australiankaren]

ok,
its now 7 sleeps,
or 6 lots of 24 hrs........

so much to do, so little enthusiasm.....

just hurry up and get here

 

[Busy Busy]

Come on Karen, we can get this countdown to number one with a bullet! Even if I have to put a stupid cowboy hat on and start mumbling "do yourself a favour"!

 

[australiankaren]

yep, it's official.

I have lost the will to live

We went to Brazilian all you can eat meat BBQ last night and I now feel horrible ....19 types of meat, why do I do these things to myself...damn you male friends who can eat whatever they like cause they have cast iron tummy's......

so have heaps to do, and no energy or will left....

ok, coffee first then back to packing

oh and 4 sleeps to go...yeah!!!! [insert sarcasm here].

 

[Busy Busy]

19 types of meat?

 

[australiankaren]

yep..19..including dif sausages, chicken wings, ribs, steak, etc etc...

well, down to 3 days, 13 hrs and 37 minutes to go and

I AM PACKED

3 bags, weighing 16.3kg, 16.6kg & 13.7 kg each...one has spare bag in it. So much shopping to do

so have to check v aust & delta luggage limits.......ok just checked, V australia we are allowed 2 x 32kg bags each, Delta we are allowed 3 x 32kg bags each...OMG.....thats like 128kg in shopping for V, and 192 Kg for delta...happy days!!! and we are taking just 45 kg including our snorkle gear.....

I culled and culled, as it helps having 1 bedroom apartment with washer/dryer at bay lake tower, so we can wash every few days. and we are 3 doors down from laundry on the boat
