EBPC December 9, 2012!!! PART 2

Sorry I have been missing in action for a few days. A "knitting emergency" broke out...my favorite niece is having her first baby, the shower is the day we leave for LA (no, I'm not going to the shower). My SIL suggested that, since I made beautiful afghans for each of her children (and they still have them!), perhaps I could find the time? Well, I've been knitting my poor fingers off, and it's 3/4s finished.
Beth

At least your 3/4 finished! I had planned on kitting a baby blanket for Lucie, it might be finished by the time she had kids! I would say I am 1/4 of the way done. (so if 1/4 took 6 yrs, she can't have her first kid before 24!)
 
Wow you guys have been busy.... Our cruise plans gave been out on hold. If you remember I was using crutches due to hip pain. Well it turns out I had a stress fracture in my femur . This morning I fell in the shower and fractured it. Having surgery today, but dr says I can't fly . I'm going to be so disappointed if I can't go
Tammy - pixiedust:wishing you a speedy recovery! :grouphug:
Wow, lucky you with the 11 pm sleep time! I think at about 1:00 the boys decided to play pool (which is right below our bedroom), so we just kept hearing the smack from the cue to the ball!
Yes we were very lucky. I guess that's the difference between 10yo girls and teenage boys! Or it may be a trick so they can have more sleepovers... my SIL says once they start, there's no stopping them.
 
Celebrating the 1st anniversary of my 29th Birthday! I am also remembering how much I HATE birthdays! They are always the biggest let-downs. Left for work at 4am before DH was awake, will be working 6am to 6pm at the landfill and I won't get back home till 8pm; just another day which I would be fine with if society didn't make such a big deal out of birthdays! When I have kids, we aren't going to celebrate birthdays! And that way, I won't have to deal with slumber parties or the cost of laser tag!:thumbsup2

Oh yes, you will. :) Seeing something through their eyes is SO much better than any celebration of your own.
 

Oh no Tammy! I hope the surgery goes well and you can work something out to still be on board. We would all be there to help you with whatever you needed!

Happy Birthday!! Today's my sister's birthday too. For someone who was born on the same day as my sister, your personality seemed the complete opposite. (BTW-did I tell you that your sister sounds just like my sister?) Anyway, 30s are even better than 20s so you have a lot to look forward to! Everyone's more mature and more importantly, more money to enjoy life! And I agree with others, there's no chance that you won't celebrate your kids' birthdays. The gleam in her eyes and her excitement were worth every penny. Besides, we splurged on double digits figuring we won't be around when she turns triple digits:). Anyway, hope your DH has a candlelit dinner waiting for you when you get home tonight!
 
A very Happy Birthday to you Emily. I hope your birthday is a fun one. Although I usually don't associate the words birthday and landfill together with the word fun. Happy Bday. Sherry
 
Happy birthday, Emily!

I agree, though, that the landfill may not be the nicest place to spend a birthday! I am SO over celebrating birthdays, but that may be because I've had twice as many as you have:rotfl2:! Of course, that doesn't stop me from planning something for that day. A cruise is always a good way to observe the anniversary of the day I arrived on this earth.

Happy Happy Birthday!:bday: Keeo celebrating .... when I hit 60 i decided I had earned it and I celebrate my birthday month! I get to go out to lunch every day of the month.
 
Thanks for the input on the name tags. I'm going to add "EBPC Cruise" or something like that and the date so they're identifiable to our cruise. By the way, they look much better (brighter/vibrant) than the pictures I posted. I print them on photo paper, laminate them and round the corners. They are the same size as KTTW card and fit nicely in the plastic cardholder along with a KTTW card. :cool1:

Jeff,

Are you and Susan doing the 20th anniversary marathon and half marathon in Jan ?

Happy Birthday!!:cheer2: pixiedust:
 
Our cruise plans gave been out on hold. If you remember I was using crutches due to hip pain. Well it turns out I had a stress fracture in my femur . This morning I fell in the shower and fractured it. Having surgery today, but dr says I can't fly . I'm going to be so disappointed if I can't go

Please have your dh or dd let us know how you are doing. You've been on my heart often since I received your email last night. I've been praying for you. :grouphug:

Moriah will also be disappointed if she doesn't get to meet Brenna since they've been emailing for several months.
 
We are still negotiating. We've already had one negotiation fall apart because they had it contingent on the sale of their house which wasn't under contract & my realtor said was overpriced. This one isn't contingent on anything, so that's progress. If we can come to an agreement, we're moving 12/27, so I need to almost have the house packed before the cruise.....:scared1:

I would be so pissed off with my realtor. Have you finally gotten in touch with them? We've had bad ones in the past, but we're lucky this time around that both the one here & the one where we are moving to are both awesome.

This is such a roller coaster ride. I'm so ready to get off the roller coaster & onto the Disney Cruise!!!!!

I fully understand what a rollerer coast ride both of our families are currently experiencing with buying/selling a home, preparing to move, getting readyfor the cruise, and the holiday season looming! :crazy2::crazy2: I never expected to be in this position as we just did a huge remodel/addition to our current home which makes it tough to find another house because I'm always comparing. Thankfully, we don't plan to sell our home so perhaps I'll be able to live in it again when we retire. :)

Yes, I finally spoke to my realtor a day and a half AFTER I received Counter Offer #1 from the seller. It has been frustrating to say the least. We countered again and will hear on Nov 15. We wanted to close in January, but the sellers want a Dec 28 closing for tax reasons which totally messes up our plans. I haven't been with my family for Christmas for 5 years and we planned to fly from Miami to spend a week with them in Phoenix for Christmas, but if we have a contract, I'll have to cancel those plans to sign papers for the close.
 
Happy Birthday!! Today's my sister's birthday too. For someone who was born on the same day as my sister, your personality seemed the complete opposite. (BTW-did I tell you that your sister sounds just like my sister?)

Well Happy Birthday to your sister! You know what 9 months from today is, right? Valentine's Day! Lucky for me, I was born a few weeks early so I wasn't a Valentine's Day baby! If your sister is anything like my sister, we are complete opposites!
 
Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes! Hopefully once I have kids, I will learn to like birthdays more. My family never made a big deal out of them and maybe I can change that. In my 25 years both my parents were living, I only spent 1 birthday with both of my parents (my 25th, I spent it with them in China, the last one my dad was around for, best birthday ever) My dad didn't even make it on the day I was born, I was born early and he was on a business trip! My mom hasn't even called yet :(

I am leaving the dump soon. Lots and lots of trucks today! Tomorrow I start working overnights where it will be much slower so I am sure I will be bored and trying to stay awake. Hello coffee! I just keep thinking of how I can use the overtime money on the cruise! Disney in a few days!

Can't your lawyer do the papers for you? Let her FAX them to you and she can represent you at the close.
