Thanks, Mindy. You're a pal

So, I've been feeling a little sad in my new house. I've yet to get any new mail. Of course, we didn't do a good job of changing our address, but still. I had my DAP "badges" go to my new address and nothing. So, I mention this to James last night. He just remembered that he put all of our mail on hold. So after a trip to the post office, we have now received our badges, and we can be cool just like everyone else.

Yay for getting your badges!

Hey Jen - hope today is a much better day!

So Don has thrown a monkeywrench into our plans - his talk of a June 2011 double dip on the Dream is so tempting. Vinny said he doesn't care, either way (PCC 2.0 or the Dream).

We're considering it too. We are still going on PCC 2.0, but double dip on the Dream sounds great!

I've certainly been caught up in the Dream excitement but Deb would really like a 7 day and that will probably have us waiting until the Fantasy in 2012. Now talk of the DD has me thinking. It would cost us transferring PCC 2.0 as it will be one or the other not both. Maybe I need to get a quote.

Us? Chatty? Never!

Hi Jennifer Your hockey talk has me thinking tet the skates out of the closet and go for a skate.

You need to share some of that RnRC and ToT ride love.

I can't believe I was able to get a table for one at the Castle for Breakfast for my April trip. I had checked before and I could only get a table for 2. Having to pay up front, I wasn't going to go for that. I was a little surprised. I just love having breakfast in the Castle. I don't think I will be able to get Kevin to get up early again.

Yes, we would! Our teacher appreciation week is in May, though, I believe. I just quit PTO this past week. I'm the advisor, and the new president doesn't want to be advised at all. She told someone she's not going to do the stupid stuff that I did. So, I'm going to let her, who has only been to 3 PTO meetings before taking over, do it on her own.

Best of luck to her.
Don't help her when things fall apart in her lap either.
Now just think of all the time you'll have to dis.

 

[katscradle]

Good "almost afternoon" folks. You peeps were awfully chatty last night. Trying to catch up.


Mom is celebrating her 70th birthday today and Deb and my sisters took her to Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun for the day.

Good afternoon George!
Say happy birthday to your mom for us!

This is our predicament as well George. It's one or the other, not both. I'm assuming PCC 3.0 will be on the new ship. We'll have to wait and see.

Thanks Kat. Say hi to John and the boys for me.

What will we do? What will we do?

Need to scoot over to dads now and do his eye drops. Be back in a bit to talk more cruise options.

Is that peanut butter? Or what's inside?

I like the caramel Timtams.

Morn all from Pigeon Forge... Getting ready to head out for breakfast then a little more shopping. Like I did not put a major dent in my checking acct yesterday . Weather is nice here. Going to visit Dollywood later. It's not Disney but seeing the X-mas decorations will get me in the holiday mood...

Hope everyone has a nice weekend

I love Dollywood at Christmas time. A different feel than WDW but still very nice.

Morning friends!

What's on everyone's agenda for the day? Sean is in a pool tournament today. It just started so I am trying to get myself together to head over there. If he wins, the prize is $2K!!!

We're going to P.F. Chang's tonight for dinner and to the mall. I really need to restock on my tea from Teavana. Somehow I ran out of everything with caffine and next week is going to be absolutely TORTUROUS at work. It's American Education Week plus conferences plus 1048574357843593 meetings plus parent visitation. I'm working from 7 in the morning until 7:30 or 8:30 every night except for Friday.

I love Teavana. We had to go fill up last week.

We are going on 2.0, but we are also going on a cruise in 2011. Emilie will be 10 in February, and when Madi turned 10 we took her to WDW. Emilie wants to do another cruise. They aren't going in December, so we were thinking we'd go in February. While we would be on the Dream, it would be the exact same cruise as we'll have just taken. So, I'm looking at a couple other options:

1. A longer cruise on something other than the Dream

2. Waiting until May and doing a double dip on the Dream. (but I could be convinced to wait until June with this option).

Decisions, decisions.

Lauren are you in????



If a lot of people were to book for the June cruise, that would definatley push us over!

We booked the June 12th 5 Night Dream Cruise. I hope it is late enough that my son won't miss the end of school. School is always out earlier than that here but I am afraid they will change it now that I booked a cruise. The price per person per day was not that much more than PCC 2.0 and we get to go to CC twice and a day at sea. The double dip cruises for this summer on the Wonder are really really expensive.

Happy Birthday to your Mom!!

hmmm- June 21 would work out great with school. We're rolling the dice for 2010 and hoping we use one less snow day or the kids are going to miss their last day of school.

I do like the June dates rather than December. My oldest will be in middle school and I am leary about taking her out for 4 days for PCC 2.0... I'll do it, but, I'd rather not.

Definatley has to be one or the other for us as well. Wish I could hit the lotto - would solve all the problems!

Anne, are you going on PCC 2.0 as well?

 

[katscradle]

I am figuring we go on 2.0, then try for a booking on, the dream
later. I mean the Dream is going to be there for a long time.
How often do you get to cruise with your friends?

 

[chirurgeon]

OK all you STOP talking about booking cruises on the Dream. I can't even think about the Dream, the union contract I am working under expires in August 2011 so I can't make any big plans for 2011 until after that is settled. I can only hope for the best between now and then. So just quit making me think how I can't do anything about a cruise on the Dream for TWO YEARS.

We feel the exact same way Kat. It's not about a cruise for us, it's being with all of you guys. Like Andrea said, winning the lotto would end the discussion!

DD started MS this year and it's a bear for her to miss even one class. She had a bunch of dental/ortho work this fall and I'm not sure she ever got all caught up before the end of the marking period. I have (finally) figured out that the beginning of the marking period is better to miss than the end when it seems every project is due and every class has some type of benchmark test. We weren't planning on taking them for 2.0 (shhhhhhhhhh)

Anne, are you going on PCC 2.0 as well?

Yes we are booked on PCC 2.0.

I did some researching into my son's school and how many days they let you miss. I am also not sure if taking him out of Kindergarten in December will be the best idea for him. He is already begging for a break from PreK.

Something is going to have to give and I am not looking forward to making the decision. December is not going to make it any easier. The lottery would help a little.

You only live once! Pull them out and have fun! You won't regret it.

Hey Gang!
Booking a cruise on the Dream sounds like a great idea....

Yeah, we've been kicking the idea around.
