Cranberry & Pineapple Continued.....Again.

Ok Selena, tell me. We will be on the ship 7 days. Stay overnight in FL the night before. What would you pack? 7 shirts seem extreme, right? How many dinner clothes would you pack? I think our major problem is packing the just in case things like cold remedies, pepto bismol, ear drops just in case my ears plug (which they normally do when I snorkel, aloe vera for a sunburn, that kind of thing.

This is my problem. I pack clothing wise very light. Mac could not understand where my clothes were and I still had way too many.

First remember I am going on a 3 day cruise not a 7 day cruise.

I am only going to take one pair of shorts, 2 tshirts, black pants, one dress, 2 tops for dinner, 3 bathing suits, 1 cover up dress, jeans and a sweatshirt. That does not include my undies, bra and pj's. I will roll all of that and this alone gives you tons of room.

For the B2B cruises (9days) I over packed still although I cut back. I took 3 pairs of shorts, 3 tshirts, 7 bathing suits, 2 coverup dresses, 3 dresses, black pants, 4 tank tops, a pair of jean capris and black capris. I took my rainbows, a pair of flip flops and 2 other dress shoes and my sneakers. Undies, pj's and 7 pr of socks. Oh yeah and a jacket that I used!! It was cold a few times in some of the lounges.

I did not wear all of my tshirts, bathing suits, socks tanks and shoes.

I attempt to take black because you can wear it over and over and if it gets dirty just send it to get cleaned. 2 pairs of black pants can go a full 7 days. I only wear them to dinner and then change afterwards. I figure 2 hours at most a night they will stay clean a good 4 days. Thought process is normal wear would be 8 hours. The math is 8 hours.

Since I stay cold in the room I have to have socks on my feet. You have to have bathing suits. Who likes a cold wet bathing suit. So if I am in the water during the day and then want to get back in later in the evening, I refuse to put on a wet bathing suit.

As I said what gets me are the toiletries. I have my 3 hairbrushes, a flat iron, hairdryer, hair products, makeup, lotions, sunscreens, medications, face wash, toothbrush, toothpaste and whatever else. This is what kills me. I also take a mini lint roller, small mirror, antibaterical gels, 2 or 3 chapstick, wetwipes...This is where I go wrong. But I normally use most of the stuff.

Wow Selena, I pack pretty much like you. I have picked out my clothes, 2 pairs of shorts, 1 jeans, 1 black capri, 2 tops for the capri, 1 sundress, 1 LBD, 1 formal, 2 or 3 swimsuits, 1 swim suit cover, 4 or 5 shirts for the shorts, pj's and probably a little sweater. I always get cold at night on the cruise. Socks????? Me, too! I have to wear them to bed all year long. LOL

I overpack on swimsuits and toiletries! I am addicted to swimsuits so I basically pack a different swimsuit for each day and I would still have a ton left at home!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Heidi, you have a MAJOR addition to swim suits and now it's beginning to rub off on me.

This is why I buy at Victoria's Secret because I can keep a watch on them and find a good deal.

OK guys do not laugh....but my friend called me at 2:00pm and invited me to see Brittany Spears. lol I will be leaving in a few minutes. Jordan Sparks is opening for her. A girl we work with husband works at the Greensboro Coliseum and he got 4 free tickets. Fun Fun. lol I have heard though she is really putting on a good show and I will like seeing Jordan Sparks.

Selena - How was the concert? My friend and I said we would hurt each other if one of us told someone that the other had Brittany Spears on their Ipod! I like some of her songs!

Happy Labor Day! I hope everyone had a great long weekend. We were busy with Joey and Tyler but it was fun!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Selena, I bet you had a great time at the concert. Can't wait to hear about it. I liked Jordan when she was on American Idol.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Sorry duplicate post. The board is going crazy!

 

[Jrsy Boy]

Heidi, ask Chris if he likes my shirt...

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Bye everyone. Have a great week!

This is Heidi, tomorrow!

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Jrsy - stop breaking into my house and stealing Chris's shirt! Chris gives you the thumbs up. I'm trying to decide who looks hotter in that shirt.

Now I get Jrsy's post. I was confused.

Bye again.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Oh-oh Heidi. Forgot one thing. Do you want us to take your lift tickets? Dad's a little worried about them since you lost a free pass last year.

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Jrsy - I about lost it when Chris put on his shirt this morning! too funny!

See, I didn't steal it. If I was going to steal a shirt from your house, it wouldn't be his; I'm not interested in him having to go topless.

Have not posted in a while?

Yes the concert was fun. I am on a Brit Brit fan but it was a great show. I did take a few pictures on my phone but you can not see her. She really looks awesome and seems to have it together on stage. She so did NOT sing but that was OK because she put on a great show.

This week has really been crazy.

Erik is now sick with some type of cold. I let him leave early from school.

Hope everyone has a grand weekend.

So we spilled the beans last night and now we have one excited 12-year-old on our hands. He is a little bit concerned about missing school and having to catch up, not as much as he is excited to be going.

Who's going to be picking up Toy Story Mania for the Wii on Tuesday?

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Jrsy - how did you spill the beans? How exciting for Alex!!!! What a great kid, worried about school, I would have been excited to miss school! I have my Toy Story Mania already preordered, been that way for over a month, I cannot wait to get it!
