Hi everyone,

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY TO EVERYONE.

Mary Rose - sorry I can't come to your BBQ but I took Lindsay to see wrestling last night. We came home really late and I'm just too tired to make it. I'm sure you won't miss me with the 200 other Cruising Castaways. lol Hope it turns out great.

Tina - just want you to know I'm thinking of you. I watched the video again. I'm still scared.

Only 58 weeks until the Explorer Cruise. Who else is going?

I am getting sooooo tired of all these T-storms that we have been getting. It was so nice and sunny before. DS and his gf left this morning to go to Wildwood for the day. They wanted to watch the fireworks on the Now it's getting so cloudy and the weather guy is calling for more severe T-storms tonight. Of course I worry until they get home.

Now I really feel old. The other day I rented a movie "Rumor has it". Did anyone see it? Basically they keep referring to the movie "The Graduate" which I really liked but DD, DS and GF had no idea what "The Graduate" is. They don't know who Anne Bancroft or Dustin Hoffman is either.

HAPPY 4TH EVERYBODY!!

Looks like everyone has been quite busy and having some great times! Glad you all had fun at your meet--looks like alot of fun!

Getting ready to head out to my folks for a picnic dinner and then off to see the fireworks!!

Andy--Just a thanks for the transfers--got them yesterday--I may pm you with a question. Yes I still need to get you a pic and mail your money due for everything along with it. I will try to work on finding a pic tomorrow and get that out to you right away. Thanks again!

Ed-- Please wish Caitlain a belated Happy 9th from us! Our Dd will be turning 9 the day before we leave so we have a 9th celebration coming up too! I sent you a pm a while back with a name change for one of the magnets---Did You get that?? Just let me know and I will get payment off to you too.

Can hardly believe this cruise is coming up so fast

I don't remember who this would go to but we would be interested in some of the pens maybe 6 or so. Just let me know who to send payment to and also for the Leis too.

FYI: We just booked the Fury Catamarn Snorkle in Cozumel the other day and I know there are a few going on here---our DD has been practicing in the pool with her new snorkel equip and says she would love to do it. I'm kinda excited because DH and I have been on a few catamaran snorkle trips but in the way past if you know what I mean---so we know how fun they can be. If anyone has any info on this that they know of lately we would love to hear. Also I think I read where it would be good to bring your own food from the ship for lunch but thought I read a thread from a trip report made just a few days ago that you could'nt take food from the boat on this excursion??? Can anyone shed any light??

Well, hope you all have a wonderful Independence celebration and thanks for everyone's help!!

Yes I got the change and you should receive the magnets in the next couple of days, just depends on the mail service.

Happy 4th all

I am getting sooooo tired of all these T-storms that we have been getting. It was so nice and sunny before.

Amen to that....the storms really ruined our day. Within an hour of getting to the town pool we had to bail out. Skies did clear up later in the afternoon but kind of ruined the enthusiasm.

Hello All After some discussion on the phone with some friends I will continue to update and vent when needed. I know how many people here truly care and I do appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers and I am sure you can understand I am not always in my right mind . One min. she's doing good the next really bad it changes so much.

Thanks to a special friend it took alot of courage to talk with Chuck tonight about the cruise. I was just ready to cancel. The guilt was laying heavy on my heart. The only way I can explain it is I feel the need to have her blessing in a way or know it's o.k if we go. So ONLY if Mom is having a good day tomorrow Chuck will talk to her about it. Chuck also told me Mom picked out something special she wants me to have and wrote out a card and he's bringing it home. Oh great need to buy more tissues.

We booked this cruise back in 8/04. Then, while onboard in 8/05 got tempted by the 11 day in Sept. Hemmed and hawed and hemmed and hawed, cancelled this cruise and paid for the Sept cruise. Then, recently, something unexpected came up and once and for all, we are back on this cruise!!! Lost my favorite cabin, my onboard credit and discount, but it'll be good anyway.
I'm excited to finally get to meet my long lost cousin, Bev!!! Chelsea and Emilie both have friends on this cruise who they are excited to see again!!!
BTW, our family has grown, unexpectedly, since I was last on this thread....
We are now, Jennifer, Chelsea DD-15, Emilie DD-2, and Liliana DD-7 months. Can't wait till August!!!!!

Good morning everyone

Welcome back, jweiss!!

I realize that I have a few people (families) to add to Page 1, and I'll try and get around to it soon.

Doreen: Craig said you called, he didn't say that you were representing AA in any capacity though. We had company over for a BBQ yesterday so John and I were out picking up steaks when you called.

I have a second interview with one of the companies I've interviewed with, today at 11am. This job is for slightly less pay, and only 30 hours. Con: less take-home pay each week. Pro: Seems like it'd be a MUCH more managable transition to go to, from being a stay at home mom for the last 18+ years! Last week I interviewed with 2 HR people. Today they want me to interview with the woman I'd be directly working with, and they want to show me around the department. Sounds promising, but I'm not counting my chickens yet. lol
