Dec 27/08 NYE Western Cruise - Really New Thread

okay she isn't the only one with backward logos, us too.

The instructions tell you to reverse the image on your printer before printing and iron them on. Paul had done these exact things 5 years ago with artwork for Wilson's preschool class and we found out you really have to follow instructions. I'm not sure that you can iron them face up and have them stick or not. We are backwards and they are on our backs at shoulder level, we thought they were funny and decided to rock with it that way

DOH!!!

You did the Magic Matey logos backwards (on the backs) on purpose???

That is such a cute funny idea!

Over the next couple weeks, I can totally redo the logos the right way and then you can have it both ways! Like a coming and going kinda tee shirt! Aisling - I may be book smart, but that lack of common sense really shows thru when I do stuff like this.

Help! We are stuck in Halifax! Got to the airport 4:00am this morning. Just checked into another hotel for tonight, no flights in or out of Nova Scotia today. We are rebooked for tomorrow to go to Toronto and then to Orlando by 9:20 on the 24th. Losing 2 days of magic.

Been quite a day.

Oddly that box that was supposed to be stuck in Indiana arrived today, with all those tshirts that I have a duplicate order coming to WDW to arrive today or tomorrow, ha!!!

Anyone wanna have a Grumpy shirt see me I've got 'em for sale on the cheap

I also will get another jacket I'm sure that will have my mother's name embroidered on it. I guess we will be twins in them with the same name too

Artie sorry you are stuck in the snow, but glad you will make it to the port on time...

and yes I printed them on the back in reverse on PURPOSE. But I don't want another one to iron on it. The shirts are a one off thing, I doubt we'll wear them again

I am so sorry to hear that -- what a frustrating thing to have happen at the beginning of vacation -- and just before Christmas

The FE list has a mistake on it, it shows both Aisling and Angelica in the same room # 6540

Is there an updated list somewhere by room # that can be printed by a fairy and brought to the cruise for me???? (brenda, michelle...do you see your name in that request???)

I have my list but I'm afraid it's not quite right....

Okay, and I'm that dork that doesn't have an extra gift, remind me of who was added at the very end too...sorry....I blew it and had the 15 count securely in my head and even with that some how the list totals at 17, so we added another in there somewhere also (that one is okay because I need not gift to myself)

and for the record our FE gifts are stupid and small. I just lost the spirit, sorry...I'll buy ya a drink instead of a craft

and don't fell left out by my lack of gesture I also did no more work on my darling son's scrapbook and thank heavens Paul grabbed a couple of ninetendo games for him to not feel left out on the present grab on Xmas...

okay, finished packing taking a shower and calling it a day.

We're off at 8am tomorrow and in Orlando @ 7:30pm....long day...

See ya on the flip side

 

[tiggerwannabe]

Bye Nan! Love you girl!

Art & fam, I hope you all made/make it out ok...

After searching all over town yestrday, come to find out new cameras from Kodak have brand specific cable. I can order new one from them, but of course it wouldn't get here in time, did find a little reader type thing that the memory card from camera can be put in and the little reader thingie goes in the USB port - so that has been solved - for now

Artie - hopefully you will be able to fly out this morning

don't have time to dig out the sewing machine - but did dig out the fabic glue and will be making our FE after a bit

Kara's rabbit and piggie sitter crapped out on her - so we are now looking for new sitter (s)

Just here at the hotel printing my boarding passes. The good news is we got bumped up to first class for both legs of our trip down.

We have a layover in Toronto from midnight tonight till 5:30 am, not enough time for a hotel stay. I think we may hit the airport early today and try to get on an earlier flight.

We kept it together very well yesterday, not a single meltdown or freakout. Although Claudia claims I was very much like a caged animal. I do have some trouble sitting still, like to be on the go.

I hope our vacation consists of a little more than a tour of hotels in Halifax.

Hey everyone,

My intent is to print out the list for everyone before I leave, and have your specific delivery DAY (again, any time of day) at the top of the list. I will hand it out at the meet and greet.. if someone could remind me when and where that would be great.. If I dont catch you all there, I will deliver those to the room and slide them under your door, or better yet, leave it folded in your FISH! lol

Artie... as much as I LOVE to give you grief.. I hope to God that you get out of Canada and to Orlando. I am so sorry that you are missing any of your trip, although.. First Class sounds NICE! You BETTER be on that boat!

Ok.. so in my plans, I was going to get a pedicure done this week.. ummmm.. given all the snow.. Not sure I want to be walking out of a nail salon in flip flops when the snow on the curbs are like knee high or better. What is the earliest that one can get into that spa on the ship??? I wonder if I could get a pedi before the ship even sets sail!! What are your thoughts??? Possible???? I dont like yuky toes in pretty shoes!

It was 11 degrees this am.. that didnt include the windchill.. not sure how low it was w/the windchill.. but I can tell you that I need to be someplace warm!

We are putting all the clothes into the suitcases tonight. I finished the FE gifts last night.. just have to assmeble everything on the ship.. God forbid anything is wrapped for TSA.

Kelly - I just did this yesterday, was praying the whole walk back to my car that I didn't slide on the ice and fall on my butt. I made it, but my toes were sure COLD. Same temps here, about 10 degrees with a wind chill below zero. Toes are looking good today though!!

 

[disneykelly73]

Oh that is too funny. I thought I was going to be alone in this problem. One of my gf's just suggested going to a different place that has a plowed parking lot. My prob around here, is most of them are on busy streets w/on street parking that you have to climb a mountain of snow to get to.

I am going to call the other place and see if they can get me in.

 

[disneykelly73]

Just secured my pedi appt at the location w/the plowed lot. YEAH!!! my toes will get to be pretty after all!!!

 

[ohioworkingmom]

Good for you!! It will be a lot easier than trying to get in at the spa on the ship, and probably much cheaper

 

[disneykelly73]

I am sure it will be MUCH cheaper!!! lol..

And I dont have to spend time away from Brian in a spa!! Although.. I did tell him if he wanted to go and get a massage he was more than welcome. I may not be able to do stuff like that.. but he can certainly!

My face keeps breaking out from the pregnancy hormones.. I look ridiculous. I didnt even break out like this in HS.

 

[ohioworkingmom]

I had the same problem with breakouts during my two pregnancies, I felt like I was 15 again, and I never had those problems as a teen either. There are some good reasons to being 45

 

[disneykelly73]

yeah.. the break out is bugging me. Last week it was clear.. and nice.. now its back to horrible. One of my coworkers asked if I had chicken pox.. Sorry, nope.. just pregnant.

I am going to have to spring for a haircut either at AKL or onboard - no time today, and they are closed tomorrow - eek

 

[disneykelly73]

Oh no.. are you serious??

I am crossing my fingers you get an appt. Can you go online and see if you can make one for the ship's Spa?

Brian is getting his hair cut while I am getting the pedi. Got my hair colored and cut Wed the 17th.

Are you going to MK?

They have a pretty good Barber Shop

If not, the salon onboard would be a nice splurge for yourself~
