It loooks like we have to worry about Hanna Now. If Hanna happens to hit Castaway Cay I think the Island would survive, but what about the Flying Dutchman?

DH & I were just discussing this a few weeks ago when we were on CC

 

[TheDisneyGirl02]

Charlie, thank you for the morning...well early afternoon laugh! My DBF and I both really enjoyed it!

It's a lovely day here in PA...I wish I could say the same for those in the path of the hurricane. Hopefully there won't be too much damage.

Does anybody have any Labor Day plans?

Awesome! We'll be there

DH & I were just discussing this a few weeks ago when we were on CC

Are you rubbing in the fact that you were ON CC just a few weeks ago? Soooooo jealous

Our Labor Day plans--nothing! Oldest is sick still, but she HAS to go to volleyball practice at 2:00. The only way it's excused is if she visits the doctor, and WHO has mandatory highschool volleyball practice on LABOR DAY? Ugh. She wants to go to practice, just to sit, so she won't get in trouble. I have major problems with coaches who do stuff like call practice on a holiday...they also made them come to practice at 5am on the FIRST day of school. Poor girl...the first day of her freshman year at a BIG highschool and she has to show up at 5am for practice.

Anyway--so our plans are relaxing until we have to take her to practice. Maybe make some bread, because it makes the house smell delicious Napping, reading, & baking bread---perfect day!

 

[anewmac]

Yes, it's 4:58 AM and I am up making magnets.

I checked my email and got a reply back from what we'll call "FE Gift Company"...so the good news is the FE gifts have shipped and they gave me a tracking number. Tha bad news is when I looked it up online it says this:

7:16 AM Delivery exception TAMPA, FL

Damaged, handling per shipper instructions

ahhh a crazy person after my own heart... I too was up late trying to get my stinken printer to work... off to office depot to get more ink and see if going with el cheapo (practicing my spanish for Cozumel LOL) ink was a bad thing

Hope its the boxed just damaged and nothing else!

It loooks like we have to worry about Hanna Now. If Hanna happens to hit Castaway Cay I think the Island would survive, but what about the Flying Dutchman?

Why didnt all these hurricans hit last yr while we were waiting (or did they and I didnt really pay attention)

I'm so glad I don't have my morning Latte' made yet, or I would be cleaning it off the screen!
Tiffany

HAHA I did, guess it needed to be cleaned anyhow

Some one talk to me about the martini/wine/beer/tequila tastings? I want to do at least one (probably beer or martini) but DH doesn't drink, and I don't want to go knowing no one.

You'll know all of us! plus alcohol makes people friendlier (SP?) for some reason

Your Countdown Date is: (09/20/2008)
Your Countdown Time is 0 years, 0 months and 19 days.
Your Countdown is also exactly 19 days.

The Teens!!!

WOOHOOO to you Kimberly and Lois, and Hadley, and Eric... were close after you woohoo!

First you will be amonig friends. There will be a lot of Dis'ers.
Second liquor makes friends quickly
Third. Last time I recall you can bring spouse. They can just sit there and not partake. Not 100% sure about this but it is Disney so I am sure you can just ask.

Great minds think alike... not sure if I should be worried about this or not LOL jk Chris

SO now next question is this just for the DIS'er or is everyone bringing your whole crew? Cuz Im thinking I may not be able to pull the boys from the pool until we HAVE TOO for the mustard (its what the boys have called it after I explained it to them LOL) drill

DH & I were just discussing this a few weeks ago when we were on CC

love how you just threw that in... a lil salt in our wounds as we all were stuck here, at work or at home, not on a delightful island LOL

Does anybody have any Labor Day plans?

Working on magnets/kicking the printer to work, the boys (all 3 of them) said something about going miniture golfing.. but the way they said it not sure if im invited or if its a male bonding thing LOL guess I could always go to the mall and get some shopping done

Are you rubbing in the fact that you were ON CC just a few weeks ago? Soooooo jealous
haha I thought the same thing

what crazy natzi coach would want to have practice on a holiday... guessing he/she doesnt have a life? SAD. I had a coach like that before. I hated playing for a whole yr of softball. It was more like a chore then a pleasure. Hope she feels better! Poor thing!

Oh good. I did not get a chance to vote. But glad my choice made won.

 

[Buckeye Gal]

Nette, no doubt you won't be "alone". I plan to go to the Martini tasting, and I know for a fact that my family won't be joining, but as Chris said, they'll be other DISers.

Why didnt all these hurricans hit last yr while we were waiting (or did they and I didnt really pay attention)

I seem to recall last year was a busy year in the Atlantic. Off the top of my head, thinking of hurricanes only, I can remember of course Dean as well as Noel and Felix. Besides Dean, I think one of the other two was a Cat 5 as well. We're just more vested this year, so ears are a perkin'.

WOOHOOO to you Kimberly and Lois, and Hadley, and Eric... were close after you woohoo!

YEAH!!! I think at least Scoutsmom Lisa leaves then as well!! We are ALL getting really close! We leave THIS MONTH, afterall!!

SO now next question is this just for the DIS'er or is everyone bringing your whole crew? Cuz Im thinking I may not be able to pull the boys from the pool until we HAVE TOO for the mustard (its what the boys have called it after I explained it to them LOL) drill

IMO, it's entirelly up to you and your family. It is NOT just for DISers, so feel free to bring the friends and family if that's what anyone wants to do. I would hate to see kids kicking and screaming being pulled from the pools. At the same time, it's a chance for some of the kids to meet one another, too. I know I've told DM and DGM that they're not obligated to go, but I think they're coming anyways. I am, however, enforcing them to go to the DIS Family photo session on Thursday!

Nice new famiy avatar, btw!

....Does anybody have any Labor Day plans?

My traditional plans of grilling out was yesterday, so today it's all about finalizing (I hope) 3 cruise projects in hopes I can start the new one this week. Then there's laundry....

Heather, I agree. That's just wrong! Do you have plans Amy?

 

[pfishgirl]

Awesome! We'll be there

Umm, so I shouldn't tell you, we were on DCL Magic this past December and we have 3 more DCL trips reserved.. A back to back east & west in Sept 09 and a 4 night Wonder for new years 09/10

 

[Fizzgig]

Erik, would you mind making a version of the Nov 14, 2009 logo that has "Make Mine a Double" for the motto at the bottom?

Thanks in advance!

 

[TheDisneyGirl02]

Do you have plans Amy?

Not really...I'm just hanging out at my DBF's house. I think we may go to the store later...since I'm trying to do this diet thing (well, I'm doing the diet thing) I need to try to figure out some other things for lunch other than ham sandwiches!

DAMAGED?????? And I know its bad or else they wouldn't have noted it. I swear if it arrives at my door with <FE gifts> coming out of it, heads will roll....
And this isn't something they can just pop a few more back out to me, they have to be "made"....Grrrr.

Jen I hope your box makes it safe and sound

8. Soccer commentator: ‘Julian Dicks is everywhere. It’s like they’ve got eleven Dicks on the field.’

9. Tennis commentator: ‘One of the reasons Andy is playing so well is that, before the final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them... Oh my God, what have I just said?

Those are my 2 favorites!

Thanks for the updates Kimberly.

I can't believe how close we all are getting. I was trying to count the number of work days I have left and I only have to work 10 more days until I'm off for the wedding and then off to WDW and the Magic!! I worked on our shirts for MNSSHP and Pirate night last night as well.

Sorry about your printer Drea......what kind of printer is it? Maybe call the manufacturer and ask them where you can get one. I wish I was more help.......

[AQW]

Which reminds me, I'll just apologize in advance to you and especially Adrienne as she is directly below us. I'll try hard to keep the kids fom jumping kamikaze off the top bunk.....I promise we'll do our best to keep it down. Just smack on the ceiling with something if we get out of hand above ya...

LOL! Hey, as the mom of a 6½yo and a 3yo, I'm no stranger to that kind of noise - there's really no racket in the world quite like two wild kiddos in a house with hardwood floors throughout. I'll thwap the ceiling with a hairbrush if y'all get too out of control.

 

[crissichef]

Ok, getting closer day by day...........we are officially in the same month we will cruise!!!

Anyway, what time does the terminal open for check in? I seem to recall 10AM. Is that correct? Just want to me sure we get there extra early!
