Hey ya'll.

Betsy & Anne...very sorry to hear about your "Aunt". That sucks for you guys.

Pond has been cleaned up a bit and the toes & nails have fresh coats of "Cajun Shrimp" on them. I'm such a klutz tho I cannot DO anything or I will screw 'em up!:rolleyes1

So I finally started trying to put stuff into the bags this afternoon.:headache: Problem with our duffles is that they don't have the tie down straps inside. So they need to be FULL so stuff doesn't shift too bad. Well...I am going to have to do some MAJOR re-arranging. The bag I used for my stuff is stuffed full and I got everything in except for my bathing suits!:scared1: It has about 8 Lbs to spare I think. But there's no room left. Ummm...OK. So am still workin' on what to do with the bathing suits...aside from busting the zipper. I was thinking about wearing my tennis shoes instead of flip flops to conserve space...but the flip flops are easier to go thru security at the airport. First time I weighed DH's bag it was under by about 7 Lbs but it wasn't FULL yet. Filled it to keep stuff from shifting now it's OVER by about 4 Lbs.:headache: DS's bag is about to explode. It's also over by about 5 Lbs. But I put DH's shoes in it. I am thinking that I am going to have to somehow put all these darned shoes into their own carry-on. I have not done the carry-ons yet.:rolleyes1 I am sure that will be another headache. I still have SUCH a list of things....and now I feel totally immobile with the whole nail thing. It's 'cuz I RARELY ever get my finger nails done too. I don't know how to function.

OK, anybody know what the official rule is on flying with scissors?? I have a pair that I usually pack but they're a little dull. Then I have another pair that I'd sorta like to bring but they're very sharp. Kind of afraid of packing them. Wasn't sure what the "rule" is.:confused3
 
:lmao: Yes! I am ready for the martini tasting! But when I take my pic of it the glasses will all be empty! :rotfl2: (Thanks for the link to the TSA.)

OK, so BETSY! What's up with all this RAIN ya'll are gettin' down there?! I just heard parts of FL got between 2-5" in the last 24 hrs!:eek: We may be spending our time in Disney Quest!:rotfl:

OK, so I am taking an assortment of sunscreens. 8 - 15 - 30 - face.... I weighed the bag I put them in. 5 Lbs!! I got 5 Lbs of sunscreens!! I would have USED to put them in my carry-ons. But now that we can't do that any more it's killin' me! This is one reason why I can't get my bags to come in under 50 Lbs!:rolleyes1

OK, goin' to bed.
 
Oph and Tzm think that they are mostly packed now. Too bad this last day of work is in the way of our vacation! Get on with it!!!

See y'all in a few days.
 

Annie said futzing!!:lmao:

and...5 lbs of sunscreen!? Wow!! Us whities don't even have 5 lbs of sunscreen! Bet my DH has the best farmers tan!! Anyone?? Anyone??

YAY! Another peeps all packed! We are working on it! Should be done tonight and then we hit "add the things as you think of them" mode.

Have a great rest of your week! See you this weekend!
 
I'm waving, I'm waving. Do you see me? I'm in a black glass building.

I'm packed except for final toiletries, paperwork, and things for characters to sign. I have a white polo shirt for DH and a green placemat for DS6 for the characters to sign on. DS17 thinks its too stupid. DS10 likes to find them and get autographs. But he did want me to find a photomat with several openings. I told him that there was no such a thing. :rolleyes1 I'm such a bad mommie!! I want to find a lightweight hoodie for the characters to find. No such thing here in Dallas. Or if it is, it's like baby pink. UGGG!! But I don't want to shop anymore. I decided against looking for swimsuits. I ended up buying a .99 green flip flop that actually fits snugly.

My pedicure will have to be on Thursday. I wanted DH to get his done for the 1st time. His toes are b*tt ugly!!

I've got 8 check in luggages for DCL. Is there a weight restriction for that? I'm checking in my water that is in a rolling suitcase. I found my FE. It was in our homerun closet. That's what the contractor called it since that is where the internet/cable/phone is all tied to one location. Then it homeruns off to other rooms.

I'm not excited to go on this trip. I have a feeling I am going to get sick on the boat or one of my kids will be sick on the boat. I hope we won't be such a lame peep.

I'm going to my chiro tomorrow so that she can remove any stress off my body. Good thing it rained tonight. My soccer game got cancelled. Otherwise i would not be packed. Tomorrow, I was going to return items that I don't need for my trip but I have to babysit my friend's kids. I told her not to talk to me when she picks up her kids so that I can finish my last minute packing. :laughing:

Tommorrow is my last day of work prior to vacation. I have finished all but one July renewal. I have started all my August renewals. I hope that I still have a job when I return. I am the closest cubbie to the owner's office. I can here him listening to messages about such and such person having such and such work experience... Oh well, if I do get fired, it would gear me back to looking in the engineering work force.

Annie, maybe you should put on your bathing suit under your travel clothes. Layer your travel clothes. This way, you are wearing the heavy clothes to wear the flip flops instead of the tennies :rotfl: At least you don't have to drive the 20 hours non stop to WDW.
 
LOL! I still have my ridiculous looking soccer mom tan. Nothing gets rid of this. So dont laugh at my silly looking legs. ;)
 
i am in a PANIC! much to do...DS has a swim meet tonite - must leave home just after 4:30 for warm-ups at 5:00. meet is with 3 teams (means long / lots of heats). have to get him showered LATER tonite when we get home. i am hoping we can be home by 8 or 8:30. THEN to finish all last min. stuff.

This forecast sucks. I just watched the tropical update. Crap. Crap. Crap. Wet. Wet. Wet.:mad:

must run. hope to check in later after I RE-pack. This 1 checked bag under 50 Lbs per person thing is a killer.:rolleyes1
 
too close to land..just going to give us rain...

Thats what I dont want, especially tomorrow. Mini golf and pool time arent good in the rain. ;)

TZM & Ophie,when do you arrive at AKL? Ill keep an eye out for you guys too.
 
Woohoo! Lets hope so! The sailaway party in the atrium just isnt the same.;)

I just hope we dont end up missing Blizzard Beach on Saturday. :(
 
That other thing now has a high probablility of turning into something. It was even on the news up here! :scared: Im not looking any more! ;)
 
The thing that yesterday got changed to a medium probability of turning into anything (the orange blob), is now up to high probability (red blob). Its 225 mile east of the Winward Islands.
 
oh..i am watching that..but the models show it going straight across to the Yucatan peninsula
 
Thats what we like to hear. :thumbsup2

I know I said I wasnt looking anymore, but did you see yet another blob(3) showing up there. Holy Cow!!!
