KIMBERLY:

 

[LuvtheEars]

Wednesday night, we unexpectedly lost the man I've called my Dad for the past 19 years. He nearly became my DFIL, which is how I met him. The parents of my boyfriend in college and I just never lost touch with one another. We loved eachother so much. Dad just always took me under his wing. His son is also amazing, and we've kept in touch over the many years as well. Even though I've lost all my great grandparents and all but one grandparent (who many of you met on the cruise), this is the closest person that I've lost. It's been very difficult. There's just never been anyone like him that I've known nor do I think he can ever be duplicated. Such a gentle, loving soul.

He was such a help when I had car problems a couple of weeks ago (which I'm sure you all remember me complaining about). I tell ya...there was a reason I had those car problems. It's clear now. He had a wonderful, happy 79 years. For his sake, I'm thankful that it was quick and unexpected though. Now he's with his sweet wife and daughter that didn't make it to birth, which oddly enough he mentioned to me just 2 weeks ago when we were having dinner. Again....things happen for a reason.

I'm also so thankful that I have absolutely no regrets now he's passed. Our lives can change in a moment, so don't waste any time to give and love!

Wanted to let all my DD buddies know that Joe and I are doing another Magic cruise on Feb 28th. We were going to do the Sept 12th cruise but our good friends asked us to join them on an Alaskan cruise on Aug 26th on that big white boat so we moved Sept 12th to Feb 28th any excuse to do another disney cruise the only bad thing is because we moved it so late (last Friday) we went from a Cat 5 to a Cat 11 keep your fingers crossed for us that we can get a upgrade at the port!!

Hi all - I was panicking when I thought I had lost you.......I went through pages and pages and then............at last I found the end of Chapter 4 and on to Chapter 5!

Sorry I haven't been checking in, I am totally addicted to facebook. I have become friend and chatted with 3 ex boyfriends already and lots of high school and college friends and just about all my sorority sisters! It is awesome!

Those of you who have not joined up, you really need to!

See the others over on FB!

Another addicted FB'er here. On Friday, I'm getting together for the first time since HS, an old friend Jeff, in the role of.....drum roll please.....chaperone! Jeff and I have been chatting, and I think he and my friend Dawn would hit it off! So, it's a 3-way date, partially blind. They're both so excitied, it's hilarious.

Happy Birthday Natalie!!!!

Sushi...my kind of girl! Did you have a nice lunch? And the bigger question is...do you eat sushi, Val?

 

[Magic3forme]

We had a nice lunch.. Natalie tried 3 new foods today. hot n sour soup, edamame and spicy crab sushi. She liked the last 2, just not the soup. We shared california roll too. ( and a salad with ginger dressing.) she had a great time! She smiled when I told her people from fb told her happy bday. ( I will let her read this page too.)

I feel bad all ready for whoever marries this child, she has expensive tastes! she wanted crab legs for dinner.

 

[anewmac]

Aww Happy Bday Natalie! and I like her taste. I was about 10 or so when we would go out for my bday and I would order filet mingon (sp) and lobster, after having escargot for a starter... lol

Marueen, im so jealous.. ill keep my fingers crossed you get some pixie dust!

Oy Facebook addict ova here too! At 1st I hated it but now I check it all the time specially from my phone.. even in the bathroom LOL.
