Pss.......David.......You there. I only have a few minutes. I think I am getting somewhere on this secret comunicating thing. Been watching the original Wonder Woman with DW and DD.

Woops I here them coming back gotta run.

Your Prez Kevin.


If Donna asks you know nothing

Ahhhhhhh.............Kevin you are sooooooooooo smart using the DW's login to communicate. She will never figure it out.............oooppppps............looks like she figured it out boss!!!! But............you know me...............a little slow on the up take...............thought there for a minute Skye was trying to confuse me!!! They are a tricky bunch as sarge has said!!! He's one smart dude!!! Keep watching and get back to us with the valuable intel you are gathering!!! As far as knowing nothing around Donna.............no problem there!!! I can make my mind completely blank at the drop of a hat!!! I've been secertly watching Donna, trying to get some intel as well...............fell asleep twice yesterday watching her.............but I don't think she did anything............cause she never moved. Which in itself is strange, cause she can never sit still longer then 1 minute at a time. (Note to self - work on staying awake to keep an eye on the DW for more valuable intel for Sarge and Mr Prez!!) I'm going to pull an all nighter to watch to see if the DW's are communicating in the middle of the night. I'll let you know tomorrow morning how it went boss!!!

Sorry we've been a bit absent around here. We finally have an answer so will share our news.

We're moving in July. Same town, but lots of packing, sorting, de-cluttering and some major home repairs to do.

Out here, mid entry houses are popular. They finish the upper floors and you do the lower floors for sweat equity.
We still have 1 1/2 rooms to drywall and some finish work to do before we move.

(Yes, NWMom does drywall, mudding taping and can install laminate floors)

So I hereby need to make sure all the Hen's Club Members keep an eye on the men and make sure they do not take over in my absence.

I'm still reading, but some days too tuckered out to post much.

Skye when you finish up on your home, come on down here to the Sunshine State - I have some new tile I want laid, along with the grout work, some painting, both inside and out, gutters cleaned, some power washing on the outside. That should just about do it for now!!!! If you need some help.............uuuhhhhhhhhhhhh Donna will probably pitch in..........I need my rest!!!

On another note, put down a deposit to sail around the islands of Hawaii on NCL this past week-end. It won't be for another couple of years though. But, Hawaii is one place Donna and I have wanted to see for some time now. Both our mothers when they were alive said they wanted to see Hawaii, but they never made it, I'm sorry to say. After the cruise we plan to go on over and stay at Disney's Aulani at least for a few days. We have another Disney cruise setup forn next year, it will be either be on the Fantasy a western cruise, or maybe the WBTA on the Magic. Haven't totally made up our minds, or should I say, Donna hasn't made up her mind yet!!!

She did catch it........but she thinks it was a mistake

And the others who said they would keep an eye on us did not see it at all.

Hmm,.....it seems to be working. Be on the look out for another test. Have to be very careful and do this slowly.

Morning Kevin........................YAWN......stretch How's everyone this fine Tuesday morning. Got kinda of a headache this morning. Yes boss you were very sneaky............no one seemed to notice at all, other then Skye, and as you said, she thinks it was a mistake!!!! Oh fudge................I was suppose to stay up last night to see if the DW's were communicating during the wee hours of the night. I fell asleep boss................I...........I think Donna put something in my drink last night. That had to be what happened. Ooohhhhhhhhh she's sneaky...........and she was being so nice to me last night too!!! That should have been my first clue.........right boss?? And she even said that "I was the man of the family..........the one who wears the pants in the family"............... yeah right..........she has NEVER thought that EVER!!!! How could I have been so stupid to fall for that ol' routine!!! I'll get my act together here boss, I won't let you and sarge down. I'll turn this around so fast it will make my head spin..............I mean.........their head spin!!!

Skye...the guys are up to something!!! They think they got away with it. I am sorry I cant watch as much...well I do listen but cant get online to warn you from work. The fetal monitors are great listening devices. Weve been monitoring alot of twins lately so I get to hears two at a time. The guys are up to something but think that we aren t watching. It is amazing what I hear and see while monitoring patient's babies and what I can see using scopes in the or and ultrasound.

On to cruise info...The cruiser list/FE list are taking shape. I am off today and I am off Thursday and may end up off Saturday(They do not want to pay me for overtime if they dont have to and I will have 52 hours if I work my schedule!! Hopefully this weekend it will be done.

If you have not signed up on the cruiser list, please do. If you do not want your information on a website then pm me and I will put it on the list. I will email the list when I have it done!! The list will be in word as most everyone has a Word compatable program to open it.

If want to be on the FE/Secret Mickey lists (and they are two different things) please let me know. The cut off date for these will be Occtober 15 When a group gets to 25 it will be closed. THe list will have the groups split to A, B ect. If you want to do everyone, you will have the info for everyone.

Secret Mickey limit is 30 dollars for all gifts for the family you have.

How does this sound to everyone?

Anyone want to plan a secret mickey reveal meet for the last sea day or Castaway Cay Day?

I got asked this very nicely in a pm so figure others might have the same question. How do I pronounce my name?

First, it is my middle name in case you try and find me. I was in my "go by my middle name" phase when Kevin and I met. Still use it with friends, but DCL insists the first name be on reservations.

Skye- pronounced Sky (with an "e" at the end- think like Anne with an e from Anne of Green Gables.)

Where on Earth is it from/etymology? (Earth meant politely as in tell me about the culture)
Isle of Skye in Scotland

If anyone else has an unusual name I would love to know how to pronounce it correctly and where it is from.
I also love to learn about what makes us all unique. As a child I "collected" international friends, learning a few polite words in any language is always fun.

Thanks Skye. I have to admit here Donna had it right. (How does she do that!!!) I said how I thought it was prounced and she said, "I think you are wrong!!" She is right all of the time!!! I don't know how she does it!!! I have an unuasual middle name..............but I ain't telln' any body!!! Well really not unusual, just a name I have always wondered, "Where in the...........did Mom and Dad come up with that one!!!" But I must say, I am hearing it more............a local radio personality has the same name and a charactor on TV has it as well. So, I guess it ain't all that bad.

WELCOME! Also welcome to any newbies I may have missed while I was on vacation!

I'm patiently waiting for Southwest Airlines to open up their next set of dates (11/6-1/11/12) so I can get to FL for this cruise!! Think I will fly out on Wed 12/12 and want to snatch that ONE non-stop flight from Phoenix to Orlando at the web rate. Thought that was going to happen today, but it hasn't yet. Will check again around 10AM Phoenix time. I have friends playing at WDW that week and want to be there to meet up for dinner at BOMA before the cruise.

Don't know when I'm flying back (I LOVE BEING RETIRED), but will stay through New Years Day for sure.

I too would like to doombuggygrl74 and family to the cruise. We are a fun bunch on here. (There are one or two on here that get pretty crazy on here from time to time - just a word of warning.) No names will ever be mentioned to protect the innocent...........and the guilty!!! (But you know who you are out there!!!!) This will be DW and my first time cruising around the holidays. Looking forward to seeing the ship decorated for Christmas!!!
