Hey Andy...Did you write a trip report on your 8/21 cruise?

If so, where is it?

Joanna

Sorry Joanna, I haven't even had the time to work on my cruise photos since returning home this year, let alone writing a trip report.

Being off from work for two weeks was a big mistake on my part, I'm still trying to get the meter readings caught up to date.

Hi Andy,
I can relate. We also had two weeks off for our August trip. I am paying for it now. Pretty much been working 12 hour days since our return and lately I have also been bringing work home on the weekends.

I will be bringing it with me to the boys soccer practice today at 9am.

Has anyone else been involved with Sarbanes Oxley?

Saw this and thought maybe some NJ people might be interested and of course, anyone else.

Hi All

10.35PM over her in the UK. Have had a busy day today as my young nephew who is 6 phoned me at 8.30 this morning to say that mummy was at the bottom of the stairs and he could not wake her up. Her husband is away at the moment working abroad. Of course immediate panic set in and I phoned my dad who only lives 2 mins away from her and told him to go over stright away. I live approx 5 miles from her so I knew it would take me at least 20 mins to get there. Anyway to cut a long story short she had tripped over her nightie believe it or not and had gone stright down the stairs head first.My dad got her to hospital where they told us she has broken her wrist. elbow and knocked herself out. So I have had her three sons with me all day. She is fine and now home in plaster but what a scare. I have spent most of the day remembering what it is like to have little ones running around.


Fantastic news that we now have an offical name for our group, THE CRUISIN' CASTAWAYS . Yippeee.. that was what I had voted for.

Hope you are all well and are enjoying your weekend.

Sue,

I'm glad the fall was not more serious than it was. Angelina's friend found her father at the bottom of the basement steps a few years back, sad to report, he didn't make it.

We are having some severe thunderstorms going through our area this evening, so I'm getting off the computer for a while.

Take a look under my user name to the left!!!

Hi everyone

So our new tribe's name is "The Cruisin' Castaways"... Let's just hope that no one gets voted off the ship!

Sue: I'm so sorry to hear about your sister's accident. That had to be so scary. I'm glad she's going to be OK though! I had a little 7 yr old boy over at my house this afternoon. His dad is a single dad, and he and my DH were over at another friend's house helping to install new windows. I stopped in and saw this poor little boy looking bored, so I brought him back to my house for a few hours. He loves to speng time with my boys, he keeps saying that he wishes they were his brothers. I, too, had forgotten what it was like to have little kids around the house.

Andy: That's so sad about Angelina's friend's dad Poor girl, to be the one who found him

Tina,

To change or add the text under your user name in the left hand column follow these instructions:

Go to the top of the page and click on UserCP, when that page comes up, click on Edit Profile and look down the page where you will see Custom User Text, look over to the right and you will see the words New Title above a small box, simply type what you want to say in that box, when finished go to the bottom of the page and click the Submit Modifications button, and you are all done.

Thanks Andy,
Where my problem is when I do this I don't see the custom user text? or the option for a new title? Maybe I have to have a certain number of post before I can have this option? Tina

 

[castoff]

Hmmmmmmm maybe I should ask for the tag fairies for some pixie dust. lol

Good Morning Everyone: My tip of the day.............
I did this for my up coming wedding cruise and it worked out soooo well that I am doing it for for the 2006 cruise that I want to share it will all of my friends ! I used a small 3 hole binder with tabs and seperated into the different sections that I needed. Ship, Hotel,Wedding. Shore Excursion, Ship info, Misc. Everytime I made a payment on cruise it would go in book. Any Excursions we were interested in would go in book. You get the idea. Everything in one place. Inside the binder are two pockets. They held are airline tickets and kids birth certificates.
I just made a cover sheet that slipped in the front of my " New Binder. The cruisin Castaways 2006. It also keeps the excitment going. Just need a up lift pull out your book. Tina

I see you just registerd on Oct 1st, I think you have to wait 30 days from the day of registering before you can use that option. I could be wrong, but check again after Nov. 1st and see what happens.

Andy...........
I will thanks !

DARWIN91 - I work in my company's Financial Reporting dept. Almost every area (AP, AR, Operations Acct, Order Entry, IT, Etc.) has been affected. We spent the summer documenting (narrative, flowchart control procedures) every process that affects the financial statements. Sept and Oct we have been challenging and testing all the controls.

I got out of auditing because I didn't like it. Now I feel like I am becoming one again.
