Dec 5, 2009 -- now traveling to Tortola

Insulin? Your mom is diabetic I assume. I gathered from your previous post that your mom is not the smallest person in the world. Overweight people, especially more senior, tend to be diabetics.

She is Type II diabetic.

She was dead weight & they ~ the paramedics were afraid she fractured a hip when they arrived on Sat am.

Thanks for ALL the concerns, prayers & kind words. It's so hard when I can not be there in person to help with her care. She is with me part time and with another sister part time. She is scheduled to be back at my house on 13 Dec.

WUV Tigger, I'm glad your mom is in good hands and she'll be healing in no time.

I finished up packing my own stuff last night while watching the Ravens/Steelers game. Derek and Keegan were at the game and it was a good one!

I've been super busy with work trying to get everything I need done by Dec 15 done by Thursday afternoon.

I hope everyone already in WDW is having a great time. To those leaving soon, have safe fun trip and see you onboard!

Hey gang! Sorry to have been out of touch lately, but my home computer went bye-bye, and so I am now just getting back to work, and connecting after hours.

Hope everyone is getting excited!! I will catch up tomorrow when I have more time to chat! See you real soon!!

Made it to Dallas earlier today. Trying to wind the kids down but we are all just too excited! In 12 hours, we'll be getting ready to fly out as we take off at 7:50 central tomorrow morning. We have a layover/change of planes in New Orleans and are scheduled to land in Orlando at 12:55. After months and months of planning, I can't believe it's already here.

See you all on Saturday

Hi Carmie!
Glad to see you made it safely to Dallas. Have a safe flight tomorrow!

We'll see you at around 11:00AM at the port? If not we'll see you aboard!

I think I am more excited than our kids are! I have everything packed and by the front door (including the FE gifts, lanyards and badge holders), except for DH's carryon - that's the only thing he packs. The kids are freshly bathed and in bed (notice I didn't say sleeping), the cab is all scheduled to pick us up at 5:20am for our 7:20 flight. All of our travel docs are printed out and in my carryon.... This is sounded a bit like the night before Christmas....

The only complaint I have is regarding ME. They only sent us FOUR luggage tags. We are only staying four nights on property before the cruise, so I am assuming it is because they figure we won't need as much luggage for only 4 nights. I wish I had counted them earlier so I could ask for more. Lesson learned!!!

I am going to unwind in front of the TV for a bit before heading off to sleep. Happy travels everyone! See you Saturday. Remember, Fluvanna and I will be at the port by 11am with lanyards and badges for the first 100 people on the roll call (and just badges for others who arranged it with Fluvanna). We will try to hang out near the model of the ship.

Hope you have a great time at Disney before you head to PC.
a little pixie dust for great weather and low crowds.

Looking forward to meeting you on Saturday. Have a great trip to WDW!!

The dry erase board do not have magnets on the back of them.

I have included magnet clips in each FE.

Do you think that the dry erase boards will be OK with the magnet clips on the 3 doors aft, midship & forward?

The suitcases are out and ready to pack! Good thing since we leave in 24 hours. Just updated our seats to business class on Airtran so we get free suitcases. The plan is still to take only one each and then an empty carryon for the stuff we always end up buying while we are there.

I still have so much more to do before we cruise. We leave Friday afternoon, both DH and I are going to go to work and then head right to the airport. We are just about done decorating for Christmas, Christmas cards out and mailed, hair cut for DH and me tonight, we have one bag packed and need to pack one more and carryons. I am so afraid of forgetting something. We are staying two more days in Disney after the cruise and then it is only 10 days until Christmas. This month is going to fly by. Safe travels to everyone and hopefully there will be no flight delays I am so excited for our first Disney cruise See you all in a few days

I am sitting here at my desk with my box of tissues and a nose like rudolph (so my boys told me this morning) and I can smell this womans perfume sitting next to me, I just wonder how much she actually has on, Good thing I can't smell right now

I know that feeling. Walking home one morning after taking the kids to school. A car with 3 women pulls into a driveway, picking up another woman. One of the gals opens the car door briefly to get their friend and in those few seconds, enough perfume 'Odor' gets out to reach me all the way out on the sidewalk!
Wonder if her friends had the courage to tell her to go 'scent free' next time.

Thanks, I knew it was destined to happen just really wish it wasn't right now, being a Children's Services Librarian I get all the little sick ones that come in with their parents because they can't go to school , so their parents drag them in to read while they surf the net

I shouldn't be here to spread my germs either but with being gone all next week I don't really have a choice. Since we are open until 7 I am going to try to finish this book order so I won't have to come in tomorrow and I got my sister to pick the boys up from school and they are going to have sleep over to make sure I don't get them sick too.

I really hope what I am typing makes sense, my brain is on vacation right now...

I still have one that I bought at Staples awhile back that can be used on our door (2560). I know it has magnets for the back. I was planning on bringing it as back up.

Thanks! Rosemary

I'm curious if anyone has every had a fish extender stolen before. I meant to post this earlier but it's insane in my house. I've had magnets stolen in the past and I've asked DH if there was a way he could secure ours. I suspect mine may grow legs and walk off. When you see it you'll understand why.

Thanks! Rosemary
