Hey! July 30th, 2005 cruise to Mexico DISfriends!

[lwilliam]

Will we recognize you? Wear a name-tag, girl.

Wonder what is up with Fisher - she must have partyed too much (again) last night...hate when she is quiet!

What the HECK is a breeze, or a shower, or cooler weather....unbelieveably
HOT, tomorrow it is supposed to feel like 107 degrees - for you too, Kathy?
Guess I'm just getting ready for next week.

Oh, BTW, JoAnn - I LOOKED at the suitcases today, put my clothing on a pile - that is a record for me - i'm just SO anxious to see everyone.

I'm really starting to worry about Lynn - although, if she doesn't send us whatever she is sending us, I don't need to ride EE!!!!

 

[jlawall]

Stop procrastinating, Luce!!

I saw "Pirates" today, I actually LOVED it , but I definitely wouldn't bring little ones to it, it is too scary for little kids! Next, I have to try to see "Cars" before next week!

Everyone, COME BACK!!

Geat weekend! Mark and I just got in from the Hall of Fame Banquet.

We got pictures with many former Reds players including Ken Griffey Sr., Tony Perez, Dave Concepcion, and Johnny Bench. We had a great time.

I will post more when we get home tomorrow..............

 

[lwilliam]

My last FULL day of work, tomorrow a half day, then on vacation...
let the packing begin.

I will be sure to stay indoors today - "real feel" temps are to reach 107 degees

OK, I do believe several of our 'groupies' are forgetting about us
Bill? Lynn?

Believe it or not, i'm going to end here for the time being, i do have work to do

 

[DisneyMom13]

Jenny - That sounds like a fun time.

I am sitting here debating whether to go to work or not today. With the heat close to 100 and heat index close to 110, and no a/c, I think it is a waste of time. They are supposed to be fixing the a/c today, but I am wondering if people are really going to be out of their houses for the next 2 days if they don't have to.

Debi

 

[lwilliam]

Debi - not worth it today (or tomorrow if it isn't fixed)

Counting the days till we see Alex again!

 

[jlawall]

This weather is crazy!! Finally, down the shore it became alittle hot!!!

We will all be together soon!! I'm so psyched!!

I KNOW DADDY AND MOMMY are reading our thread regularly!! They're just shy!

Lynn, check in soon! We know school is over soon, let us know how you're doing!!

 

[lwilliam]

my clothing are picked and folded and ironed....a great start for me.
Tyler's too and Bob's clothing. NOW, 'the other one' thinks he has till
the last minute to pick his clothing - in fact, he just informed me he is
going with ME to get some shoes, ME!
Tomorrow night - like I want to go shopping tomorrow night!

Now it is just 'my beauty' products that i must get together - let me tell 'ya
gang - that takes up an entire suitcase

9:30 PM - Good night! VERY late for Lucy.

 

[jfis1020]

Debi I hope they have that AC fixed for you. That is a miserable feeling!

Kathy you must be getting psyched for a little time away w/o o the bambinos!!!

JoAnn So, when DO you go back to school? I cannot believe my time is almost over. I told you that you guys would be "feeling for me" come August 14th back in MAY!!

Lucy Shopping with Bryan sounds like a blast! Will you come and finish my ironing now????


It's hot......of course, I had ordered 5 yards of mulch for the day! John and I have plans to put it down today and get it over with!!! He asked my mom to come and get M&M (rather than her help) because he says she'll be in our way! He's right! Marshall is still a little "bee shy" after last week's attack.

I have so much to do yet and am not sure where to start. I figure Thursday will be all packing. Where ironing comes into play is beyond me!! Of course, Mallory wants EVERYTHING ironed. Most recently, she wanted me to iron her UNDERWEAR!! That's where I drew the line! I bought some new blinds over the weekend for my room that John moved out of. I would like to hang those before we leave! We leave Friday for Cincinnati to see the Reds play Friday and Sat. Mark is actually missing the game Sunday for WDW!! What a guy!!!

At the Hall of Fame banquet, I got the biggest kick out of Ken Griffey, Sr. Mark told him how much we love watching Junior play. They were talking about how many home runs Senior hit in his career. His comment was, "Junior may have hit a lot of home runs, but I wear the rings in the family!!!" (he has two World Series championship rings!!!). I am still in awe that we got to meet those guys. They were so personable and down to earth!

Drink a bottled water for me today.........I'll drink about a dozen out there today!

Have a great day everyone..................

 

[DisneyMom13]

Ironing, what's that? I mean, I do own an iron, but I have no clue where the ironing board is. With a husband that works construction, what do I have to iron?

Jenny - Have fun mulching today. Stay cool girlfriend, a margarita may be in order after that!

Still no a/c at the store, I left at 1:00 yesterday. I am going in this morning, but don't think it wil be much better. It is supposed to be just as hot as yesterday, with no breeze. Yesterday, there was a breeze, even if it was a hot one! It's supposed to break tonight and be only 85 tomorrow, back to normal.

9 more days till we arrive in Disney. A little dilemna here though. Micco may not be joining us until Friday and then going back Sunday night. He just started a big job and is having trouble getting away. His cousin (partner) got sick last week and wound up in the hospital for almost a week. They thought he had a heart attack, but it wasn't, he has a 30% blockage in his arteries though. Now he keeps moaning and groaning about leaving for the 4 days. This happens all the time when we go on vacation, I am so used to it. He always gets busy with work when we go away. I am not real happy about it, and he hopefully is trying to get things in order so he can come with us and not after us. We will see as the week progresses. Hey lurker, I know you are reading, you better come with ME!!!

Anyway, I am planning on bringing bagels with me when I come on Thursday, would the Williams and Fisher family like to join the Bolusi's at their Villa for breakfast on Friday morning. The best bagels you'll ever eat (right guys?) will be served, with butter, cream cheese, coffee (or tea) and juice for the kiddies! Just let me know, I will bring 2 dozen bagels if I know you guys are coming. Let me know what everyone likes!

Have a good day all!

Debi

 

[lwilliam]

Friends - SHE is waking me up on Thursday night when SHE gets there...
and then SHE expects me for breakfast Friday morning - I'll be there...
In fact, I MAY move into your room, to spend the entire time, 24/7 with you...I mean, I see my family EVERY DAY, but I miss you guys....ok, I'll stay....

As I told a friend last night, they have their dog in a kennel when they go on vacation - I wish I could find a kennel for my older son and leave him at home

That is too funny Lucy!!!

Debi I have raved since going to NYC about the bagels. We would love to join you!! My kids all love bagels!

Mark is so ready for this vacation guys. He's had a rough two weeks. So rough that I actually do feel sorry for him.


Oh DisDaddy ..........Where are you??????

 

[jlawall]

You guys are so close! Jenny, why are you mulching in this heat??? So will we be missing you all week, or will you be able to check in with reports???

I am not due back to school until August 29th this summer!!! However, I plan to start putting my room together around the middle of August when my daughter has a field hockey camp she has to attend.

Anyway, the heat has been really bad this week! I hope you are not working too hard, Debs....... It's supposed to break tomorrow around here.

We are seeing Kelly Clarkson tonight! It should be a fun family outing!

Hope Lynn says "Hi" soon!

So Lucy, you are leaving on Thursday and Jenny is leaving on Sat??

 

[jfis1020]

JoAnn I am mulching because it's on my list?? Of course, I waited until the worse possible time, but oh well, it's done now!! We did 5 yards in about 4 1/4 hours. Pretty good for just the two of us (John and I). I hate doing it, but it saved me MEGA bucks! More for WDW!!! We leave here Friday to go to Cincinnati, then fly to WDW Sunday.

I am "retiring" now....I've had a rough day working!!

 

[lwilliam]

all those drinks at the pool - the hurricanes, are they? AND, the diet coke! Poor girl, she NEVER knew
(almost) everyone would take her up on those drinks.

LYNN...we need the 'whatever' you
were sending us....IF you can't send to Bob, send it to either Debi or JoAnn, they will be down a little later. Lynn - I'm NOT going on EE unless YOU need me to!

YEP, we leave Thursday, at 6 AM from Philly.Have a layover in Atlanta going south, should arrive in Orlando by 12 noon, we hope. Then it is on to
Royal Pacific Resort at Universal till Sunday, with a reservation at Emeril's restaurant on Friday afternoon at the Royal Pacific...think of us.
We'll soon be saying "Hi Jack" (girls, I'll explain when you get there about the
Hi Jack)...

OH, DEBS, what is up with Micco, IF he can't make it the first night, Jenny and I are sleeping over...haven't had a sleepover since i was 16 - and we DON'T want to think about how long ago that was!

 

[lwilliam]

I can't imagine how far back we will be when Jenny and I leave!

Busy day - i've added a doctor appt. for Tyler for today - strange rash on his back...the kid doesn't even go outdoors, how can he get a rash...don't wanna pay for an emergency visit in Florida, plus, he'll want to swim...best
get it looked at by family doctor...plus, maybe i can get something for his ears too, for flying. I had an open hour today, so now I'm fully booked!

Any news on Micco, Debi? his arrival? I'll keep in touch by cell phone when I'm down there. I'll be computerless....talk about a DIS withdrawal!

Lynn?

Maybe even the 'lurkers' will be on board while we are gone.

 

[jfis1020]

What's up with the page 2 thing? Where's JoAnn?? Soaking up the Jersey sun?? DisDaddy is chasing all those Jersey fish.

Let's all remember poor Lynn is still working! She's probably in crisis mode right now. If I remember, this is the last week?

Is the air fixed yet Debi ??? A slumber party would be fun! How are Micco's plans coming?

And where's KATHY and DISDADY ??

 

[jlawall]

I'm back! We had some crazy weather around here last night! Ken had no power in PA!

Have a great trip, you two! We"ll see you next week!!!
Ok, Debi, Kathy & Lynn, let's keep this baby alive!!

And of course...........DisDaddy!!

 

[littleowensmommy]

Boy, we were deep in Page 2 again!

I'm here...barely. I'm so tired. I drove the r/t to Williamsburg today and then came home and cooked this afternoon. We have houseguests tonight.

I have to pack to leave for Williamsburg on Sunday. I'm spending the week up there with the kids to avoid the drive back and forth all next week. We'll go to Busch Gardens and Water County USA in the afternoons. Ted will drive up on Thursday evening and take over for me and I'll leave Friday morning for the airport to join you guys! I'll be offline from Sunday afternoon on so if anyone needs to reach me, call me on my cell phone. You should all have the number.

See you all soon! Jenny and Lucy, enjoy your trip before we all get there!

 

[lwilliam]

See You ALL in Disneyworld
