come on fellow dreamers we can make it happen we still have a few more hours I will check back tonight and see how we are doing.

Thank you everyone for the well wishes for my boys...They did awesome we love football and watch it all the time. But the team I cheer for more than any is my kids teams. Heck I lost my voice from all the cheering.

September 7 is the back to school day for DD10. She'll be in regular Grade 5 with a full time E.A. It'll be her 3rd year with a computer with Kurzwell and all the great stuff that keeps her in regular class. She's ambivalent about school. She likes the friendship but dreads the work and the effort she has to put all the time, compare to the other ones. She comes back home extenuated everyday. But this year, she'll be lucky to skip school for a bit more than 2 weeks to go to Disney. It's gonna help the motivation!

I will also be back at work after 4 weeks off professional work. I painted our entrance. 20 X 20 X 14 (height), 3 colours, 1 staircase and 5 doors. Had to repaint the navy blue because the computer gave me dark loyal blue instead, so it didn't fit the doors and it would show when the sun hit the wall beside the doors. By the way, I LOVE painting. But that was a huge job, mostly since I live with "fear of heights" and I had to keep moving the scaffold all the time to make sure I could hold something all the time. But it's done now and I'm delighted with the entrance. Now, if I can just go back at work to rest...

One more time: beaucoup de poussière de fée!

well we did not make it to the 300 post this weekend but we gave it our best shot...I am off now to check the meyer werft site since we only have just about 2months until the dream sets sail to the us. I can not wait to hear more about it. I know the water test should be happening soon. I will let you all know if I find anything out or any new photos are up under the webcam. Keep your fingers crossed.

Thanks for sharing...I love reading all the updates about the new ship. I can not get over how big everything sounds then again does Disney do anything small. Unless you are thinking of a bugs life!! I am so ready as most of you I know set sail (I just need the spending money).

But I wanted to share that I got our air fare awhile back and we paid 870.00 for the 4 of us round trip. Myabe when we move down to fl we can cruise more since we can just drive then. But back to my point I just priced it again just checking to see if I got a good deal and I am so thrilled I must say. The same flights on the same airline at the same time was over 1300.00 bucks. I must say I don't know if I would pay that. Well I hope you all are having a great week and have lots of posts this week. I am still waiting to see post 300. Who will be the lucky one to post it.

Boy did you get lucky...We only fly like every 4 years so our points are always gone before we get to use them. I guess maybe we need to fly more.

I think once x-mas comes it will fly bye...I know everyone is really busy then. Once that passes I know I will start making my need to get list and after taxes I know I will have my spending money too...So I am so ready to go and have a great time with the kids. Oh and they will know so that part will make it easier on this house. Because then I can talk openly about it.

By the way they are wondering why I am on here all the time so they have been trying to read my posts over my shoulder. I laugh but I am learning I have to be very careful!!!
