Hi! I had started compiling a fish extender list, but life has just thrown way too much in my direction lately and I'm afraid I'm not doing it justice right now

At this point, I would be happy to pass this along to someone with more time as its not looking like things will settle down for me much before the cruise....
From what I have, the following people have replied as interested in fish extenders: myself (Starseeker1221), SaraSpringsIsHome, JamesFan, Knewton64, Tntstults, PixieDoodles, Jenkel, JerseyGram, and SirWilliam. It appears you've already started getting some replies for specific names and ages for your list, so I'll just add my own info as well:
Names: Vicky (age 30) and Alissa (age 29) and we'll be staying in stateroom 5133.
On a different note, its almost August and that means we are coming ever CLOSER to our cruise!!
oK...I mean this from the heart about dealing w/"stuff."
I just lost my best friend of 14 years last week and well.....
THAT STINKS!!
She was not only my best friend, she was also my dieting partner.
Oh how I remember the days of "just not feeling it" when she would be there for me; telling me to get up and lets get moving.
I would roll over onto my belly and say no.
She would respond by climbing into bed with me and belly flopping herself on my stomach..............
Dripping spit from her mouth .........
her nose pressed against literally against my nose -
with a leash in her mouth -
tail just a wagging and her just a whinning louder and louder.......
(I mean hey....who could argue w/that??)
I would say, "Gimme 5 more minutes."
Sure enuf.....
4 minutes and 58 seconds later -'
there she would be.
------------------
All of that gone

.
THAT STINKS!!
So, I am slowly going foward (currently on day 3 of my diet for my upcoming Hawaii vacation) but it just isnt the same.
I am currently looking to adopt but I am thinking the best thing for me to do is.........
reframe and focus in on my upcoming vacations

and........
look to if necessary buy a Beagle tri-colored (or Lemon) puppy in January as a belated birthday gift.
So, should anyone of ya just hhaappeenn to c a Beagle that fits the above description, couldja fax her to me??
Ok......so to be serious here, I hear ya about too much stuff going on in one's life. Here is my Silly Goofy suggestion for ya:
If ya feel like it, come catch me one evening as I will no doubt be watching some Disney family entertainment somewhere on the ship - with a Margarita.
And if ya want, I just may have a few extra Key Lime cookies for ya

to nibble on.
(I am bringing some onto the ship - prepackaged of course)
Now THAT'S a wonderful way imho to unwind & relax and let the outside worries melt away:
Some good Disney family entertainment while sipping on a margarita and downing a few key lime cookies to boot.

.
It's been real.
P.S. OMG!!!
This is my 1000th posting!!



CYA!!
