[allie_gator]

Okay...so we know this is bad when I have to pull us off of page 2, since im never on this thing!!

How is everyone?? My love and hugs to bob for a speedy recovery!!

Thanks to everyone who was down last weekend! I had a great time! Joann, tell your girls hello!

I have been working like crazy, a couple of 17 hour shifts and lots of 12 and 11 hour shifts. I finally have a day off on Wednesday and I'm going to get a massage at the grand floridian and hoping a certain boy has off or has the afternoon off, otherwise it's a mini trip to the Magic Kingdom to visit him at work.

Things are alright here. I'm just very stressed from working so many hours and not having eight hours in between to sleep. I was going to have a little sleepover at MK but I got off early enough to come back to my apartment and get five hours of sleep in. But the stress is physically starting to show as my hair is coming out in clumps and my nose is bleeding, wonderfullll! And on top of that I might have pink eye?? I dont know haha

But this post isnt about complaing, its about love...love love love...love love!! Haha and thats all I wish on you guys!!

I hope everyone had a lovely holiday and I cannot wait for this reunion in July and the Med cruise! Wooo!!

Love and Kisses!!!

And enjoy your massage and day off on Wednesday. Hopefully, your schedule with calm down after this week when the Easter break is over. You have 2 more young fans in Owen and especially Amy. We saw your folks and Brianna briefly on Thursday and Amy was asking for you. You really have the magic! It was great to see you and your family and JoAnn's clan. I'm going to work on all of them to join us and Lucy and Bob in October for MNSSHP and F&W.

Hey Allie,

Hang in there........ ..........you HAVE to request Nicole at the GF Spa.......she's fantastic!!! You will feel SO MUCH BETTER after a massage with her!!! You are the best, I had tears in my eyes in AK! You are doing a great job, keep up the good work!

Lucy, I LOVE THE SUBTLE PRESSURE , keep it coming! I had a little trouble of my own yesterday, I hear ya, Bob .......back to work today.........4 more days of stress!!!

I will make the ressies sometime this week, I had a full day today, I'll try to do it tomorrow! Hey Jenny, THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE LETTERS, etc......I'll let you know how things end up! Yikes!

Thx again to our Spring Break buddies from last week, I will try to post the pics soon!

 

[LynnTarrant]

Glad you're all back safely and you had such a good time.
My birthday was on Good Friday and my mum took me out for the day and we had Fish and Chips! Diet what diet!! Thank you for all your good wishes and Belated birthday wishes to my fellow Ariens Micco and Alice.
Allie sorry to hear you are working so hard don't make yourself ill will you, I'm sending e-cuddles to you

I really wish we could have joined you this Easter but the airfares were astronomical, you probably could have tempted us with the summer but we have guests coming over from the States and I'm sure they wouldn't be too happy if we flew there as they flew here to see us!!

We'll be looking forward to hooking up with some of you in NYC. Joann I heard there is a new Disney Show Tarzan coming this Spring We love theatre especially musical so just about anything is good for us, we have sees Mary P, the Lion King and Wicked so would prefer something new. I heard Hairspray got good reviews, and although Spamalot has opened in the West End we haven't seen it.

We'll also be able to enjoy F and D festival and MNSSHP both new to us sorry we can't be there at the same time as Kathy and Lucy I wish these transatlantic school schedules matched a bit better ah well we'll see some of you on home ground in July 2007, Can't wait!!!
Love Lynn

BTW I just looked at my name on the left I've got coloured writing by my name, have I been tagged!!! 3 times!!! When did that happen?

 

[LynnTarrant]

That was my 500th post as well!

 

[jlawall]

Hey Lynn!

I think Tarzan would be a phenomenal idea.......I have seen Lion King, Hairspray (just ok) and many others. I guess we should look into Tarzan and get a head count!

Hey me too, about the tagging!!

 

[lwilliam]

finally - we are brought back to page 1 - thank you Allie.....
oh, Allie, don't get yourself sick...I'm so worried about you.

TARZAN - we are going to see that show in two weeks, sunday, april 30,
we'll let you know how it was.....OF COURSE we would go see a Disney
show twice....i'll keep in touch about the show.

WELL, today WAS Tyler's first day back at school after 10 days off, and
guess who is home, terribly sick....Tyler. MAN that poor kid got sick...
i hated it that it was his first day back today, but he couldn't possibly have
made it. TONIGHT the house gets disinfected before I get sick....Lucy does NOT like 'that kind of sick'.


What about me (tagging?)

 

[DisneyMom13]

..and poor Allie's car wouldn't start this am, so she is late for work.

Anyway, ressies for everyone JoAnn , all those places are fine with us. Jenny - We should definitely start margarita night in MGM for a Fiesta Margarita, then maybe head over to Epcot for a layered margarita...are you with me girlfriend???

Lucy - Micco will be away on the 30th, but I would love to come to the city and mett you guys for lunch, if you don't mind me solo.

Lynn - Give me those dates again in October, so I can mark them on my calendar now. We definitely want you to stay here, so plan on it!

I am heading off this Saturday for a cruise on RCCL out of LA. It is a working cruise and I will be missing my family, as well as all of you. Never been on RC, so looking forward to it, I heard they are good. We are going to San Diego, Catalina Island and Ensenada, Mexico. I don't know if I am even going to get off the ship to do anything, as there will be lots of classes that I will be taking to help my business.

Anyway, love to all.

Debi

 

[LynnTarrant]

Hi Debi
Thanks for the offer of a room. We'd be delighted to stay with friends rather than a hotel , get a real taste of living in NY. I'd also like to visit your shop if we can fit it in in the short time we are there, I love scrapbooking and we don't have many shops in the UK yet.
Here are our dates again
Dep London 8:30pm Arr Newark 11:10pm 20th Oct
Stay in NYC 2 nights probably on Staten Island at the Belushi Hotel
Dep Newark 6:55am Arr Orlando 9:34am 22nd Oct

Get Well soon Jo Ann, Bob and Tyler
I'm back to work tomorrow.

Jenny - We should definitely start margarita night in MGM for a Fiesta Margarita, then maybe head over to Epcot for a layered margarita...are you with me girlfriend???Debi

You don't have to ask me twice! I'm in!

All this talk of shows is depressing me. I have tried like the devil to see Wicked. I had planned on seeing it when it came to Cincinnati, but it was when we were on spring break. Then, I decided to try to see it in Chicago when we were to go up over Memorial Day and that Tuesday after, but the snow/electricity days killed that idea! I have to work on Monday and Tuesday now! I don't get to see many shows because they only come through the university at inconvenient times!!!! Maybe this summer! I see that Le Mis is coming to Cincinnati in a couple of weeks, but it doesn't work out either! ANYWAY.....

JoAnnJust so you know, you were part of my annual "goal justification" at work. I had a writing goal and incorporated our penpal stuff into it!

DebiI would take a working cruise anyday. I probably wouldn't get of the boat either. Just the thought of a cruise is soothing!

AllieTake care of yourself! I know that massage will help! I always feel like putty when I get one. Mark got me one at BWV on year for our anniversary (always falls on our vacation) and I felt SO GOOD AFTER IT! However, I will never be able to top that hot stone massage on the cruise!

More later.........off to Cub Scouts

 

[jlawall]

Ok, I'll try to call tomorrow for the ressies (busy week!) Alex! Write back and tell us that you're ok!!

Have fun, Debs, you deserve it! We expect complete trip reports!

Thx, Jenny, glad to be of help, I just think it's so cool to be doing this and the kids love it! Thx for the Indiana facts as well!! We are busy writing back! Thx also for your other tips.........I will be using some of them!
You really saved me this year!

Hey Lucy, have fun in NYC! Tell us all about Tarzan! We must start looking for shows for Oct. 21st? Is that right Lynn?

BTW, am I in for "margarita night?!"

 

[lwilliam]

(like I never have anything to say )
would you EVER believe I used to be a shy girl in school and never talked?
it IS true....guess I've changed, huh?
one by one:

Allie - I'm worried about you, girl. Get the massage!
Jenny - thanks for the note...friend....19/20 is an ugly age!
Debs - you never answered my PM for Allie's address again!
JoAnn - let me know where you are staying in Oct. in Staten Island - Bob and I will stay at the same place, ok?
Lynn - I'm not sure we will get tickets for Tarzan..it will be very popular
Kathy - where are you, girl?
Debs - my favorite vacations in the world are cruises....have fun! I LOVE RCCL...next to Disney, of course.

 

[littleowensmommy]

Debi, Let me know if you decide to get off the ship in San Diego. I"ll point you in the right direction.

 

[jlawall]

Hey Lucy.........since we're going to Broadway, I was thinking Marriott Marquis............we could meet for lunch or dinner (or both) and then see the show!

2 more days.........pray for me!!!

 

[jfis1020]

2 more days.........pray for me!!!

You can do it JoAnn!!!!

Lucy isn't feeling well. I think Bob gave it to Tyler, who gave it to Lucy!!

Where's Bill???? I miss you big guy! It's amazing now that the weather is nice that he's left us!

 

[Albill]

[jlawall]

Who's your daddy?? Blabber mouth!! JKJKJKJKJKJK (just cracking myself up!) Note, no words of encouragement for the suffering!!

Hope your OK, Lucy!!

WHERE'S EVERYONE ELSE??

 

[jfis1020]

You o.k. today Lucy?? (I looked for a "yacking" smilie, but couldn't find one!!!) Talkin' about cracking myself up!!!!! I didn't call because I didn't want to risk waking you up if you were REALLY BAD! I am worried about you so check in with us!

JoAnn ~ Can't you "shame" the "rents" into a shorty to WDW. Mark doesn't dance, so I thought JT could "shake a leg" with me!!

 

[jfis1020]

LUCY???????O.K. GUYS, SHE IS REALLY SICK! I usually hear from her at least once a day......

Take care of yourself (or let Bob do it!).

Speaking of not feeling well...........how's Allie???? I am worried about you kid! You need to slow down! How was the massage???

 

[DisneyMom13]

...and I need a group hug from all my DIS friends.

Last night someone set fire to my store. On Wed, I leave at 4 and come back for Crop Night for 7:30. I went home and around 5:30 went to pick up dinner for Briana and her boyfried. Micco called me on my cell and said my landlord had called and they broke into my store and set it on fire. He ran to the store, I dropped the food off and headed there. Needless to say I was sick, I felt like someone had punched me in the gut and I thought I was going to have to pull over to hurl. Micco wasn't calling me back, which could only mean the worst. All mi pictures I have ever taken in my life are in that store, all the scrapbooks I have ever made are in that store. Now you know why I was sick. Well, thank God my personal items were not damaged. There is approximately $7,000 - 10,000 worth of damage. Jenny, Lucy and Bob, you guys were at my store so you know how its laid out. The whole sticker room on the left side of the store was destroyed, that is where the fire was started. Also, that whole row of paper that is between the classroom tables and the sticker room was destroyed. The place is a mess and smells like smoke. Now, the kicker...they caught the kid who did it...he is 11 years old...His probation officer called me today, so on top of all the insurance, re-ordering, cleaning and restructuring, tomorrow morning I get to go to Family Court. This kid is in a world of ****...he needs help, and if I can help it, he is going to get the help he needs.. And I have to try to go on this cruise with a clear conscience...yeah, right.

Anyway, Lucy, I will send you Allie's address, I think I have it at the store, but life has been turned upside down for the last 24 hours. Hope you are feeling better.

I am trying to read the last few days posts, but my brain is a little fried right now, I will try to answer you all when I am in a better frame of mind.

Thanks in advance for the , I can feel it right now!

Debi
