I really want to thank Julie for suggesting the luggage scale. I ordered it from Magellan's along with the Jet Lag pills on Thursday and they arrived today.:)

Now here's the problem--my large suitcase weighs nearly 10# empty!:scared1: , so I thought maybe I could wear six pair of underwear, three bras, stuff two pair of shoes in my pockets and wear about six pair of sox of course then I would have to wear bedroom slippers because shoes would not fit!:lmao: :lmao: I guess we are fortunate that we are packing summer clothes which are lighter in weight to begin with!:idea:

Maybe I had just better plan on having money in hand for extra fees at the airport. We used to have a really large suitcase that was always overweight and the porter's at the airport would always tell me "It's a good thing you are flying USAirway because they don't charge you for that extra weight", of course that was not going out of the country, well the Caribbean, but on the ship, but we never paid extra---this time is a little bit different!!:rolleyes1
 
86 is so close to 00, it almost makes me want to fluff for a you-know-what.

HOWEVER, this morning I fluffed the tiniest bit, only 2 fluffy posts, and I got punished by the pirate-gods by missing the pirate anyway.

Okay, I'm not gonna fluff. I want a real pirate or not at all.


Are you doing fish extenders for all of your rooms?
 
I was hoping to do all the rooms, at this point I have NO fish extenders and no immdeiate plans of making them.

Maybe I can find some bed/bath/beyond version but I haven't done it yet.

I bought 2 new cases because our old luggage is very heavy. The new ones are super light. I also bought a matching carryon. However, with 5 of us going, this isn't going to take care of us! I will just try to be careful. My DH stands on our home scale with the luggage to test the weight - no weigh (pun intended) I am standing on a scale to see it go up 50#:rotfl2: :rotfl2:

Did you see the one Sandra made out of brown paper bags--like lunch bags? It was darling.
 
well, we are pretty close to a pirate: and I haven't had one in quite awhile - but whenever I try, it blows up in my face. So, maybe I'll just assist and hope for the best??

I did look at our local $1 store to see if they had anything, but they didn't. I have since decided to wait until our next cruise to participate in fish extenders. But, the lunch bag ones were really cute!

I seem to always have a 40 second posting issue . . .
 
Where did everyone go? Suzy and Harole Ann, I see your lights are on . . .

This luggage is relatively new and much lighter than what we had. It has stood up well to airline abuse. I bought new luggage for our dd for a Christmas gift and I think it is about the same weight. Don't think I better do any more shopping!!:laughing:
