July 18 2009 Tortola - Part 2!

[noahsmom]

It's been hot and humid here too. I don't like it. I know - I'm going to be in Orlando in July. But it's usually much more tolerable on the ship (if there's a good breeze then the heat isn't so bad.

Sounds like the heat and humidity have been horrible in Orlando though. Well I just have this to say to the Orlando area weather:

You have 18 days to get over yourself! NO MORE 80+ dew points starting July 11th!!

Do you think this will help?

Wish we could send you some rain. The weeds are growing wild and everything is so muddy. At this time of year we are usually heading into a drought, no mention of that around here lately.

I hear you!!! To muddy to even plant the flowers I did not get planted in containers yet. Those are the only ones still alive. The planted ones are rotted!

Where are you in MD?
I am in Olney.

Does anybody know what the turn around time is for the cancelled reservations to show in the system as available? We were too late for both group brunch reservations, and now can't get one!! Thanks for your help...

I'm pretty sure some will be available the day you board if you go early. If not, get on the waiting list and they will probably call you........

All this talk of rain.... its been over 90 for almost 2 weeks now, no rain in sight. High humidity, high temps, and no rain means our garden is going down hill fast... we might lose most of it

We'll have to irrigate it down to you guys..........

Sorry!!! It rained pretty hard for about 20 minutes. Not long enough but, just enough to make it steamy...

We had some sad news. My DSIL died yesterday from brain cancer. DB is devastated. The wake is Tues. and the funeral on Wed. Please keep him and his family in your prayers. They were married 44 yrs.

MrsG sending prayers for your family.

I'm not touching this one.........

Tan lines on my shoulders not somewhere else. Besides our patio is fenced in with a very high fence so it wouldn't be like anyone could see in.

I told my kids today that Thursday would be my last day with them that I was needed to go work in a different classroom. It was harder than I thought I didn't realize that i was so attached. Of course that was until one of my typical students threw orange paint at me and bite me because she was mad.

My documents are here. They could have saved the postage. I remember you used to get a brochure for the tuxedos, a booklet of cabin gifts. All they send now is the luggage tags, checklist and forms if you haven't done them online.

Lissa congrats on the promotion. when will you start the new job?
