[EPCOTgrl1]

I am sorry to hear all of that! everything will be ok! have a safe trip and see you friday night!

 

[jeanneg]

Shelley: your bad day makes mine seem pretty good. Take a deep breath and just keep telling yourself it'll be alright. In just a few days you'll be sailing under beautiful blue skies and sipping those conch coolers! Have a safe and pleasant journey if you haven't already left. See you soon!

Our ranks are dwindling, folks!!!!!!!

ohhhhh pleeease....what next....now the substitute my husband had lined up for his church organist job, just called all snitty and said he wasn't playing.....we're scrambling to make sure there's at least some acappella music at the 3 masses per weekend.

Also Jay's dad isn't feeling well and he's on medication at the age of 88 with COPD.....

have that wine ready at the Radisson ...I'll lay down under the spicket and just let it flow!!!!

 

[jeanneg]

Ha,ha, I think we'd all agree....you deserve as much wine as you please!
Just get on the road, girl! (forget the friggin organist.....you gotta know we R.C.s never sing anyway!!!!)
Adios, ciao, auf weidersehen!!!!!!!!

 

[joanb]

Hi Joan,
Looks like you'll truly be the last man standing. Hopefully Shelley finally got on the road! Sounds like she had a horrendous day. I think Denise should also be gone by now and Sue and Audrey plan to leave early tomorrow morning. I think I'm in pretty good shape here. I just completed next week's payroll which was a little complicated because I had to calculate quarterly bonuses. now i just have to close out the quarter and get all the necessary reports to the accountant tomorrow so he can do the quarterly taxes. normally this doesn't need to be done until the 10th of the month, but since I won't be here, it all needs to be done now.
My daughter and I have an appointment to get our nails done tomorrow afternoon. She plans to get tips and wants me to do the same, but the last time i did that was for my 40th birthday (10 yrs ago) and my nails started to turn black! Yuk! I think i'll settle for a simple manicure instead. I know she wants the "bonding" experience, but i'm just a simple gal at heart and don't want nails that aren't mine!
This will be our first time driving to Florida. We have always flown, but ever since 9/11 it's become such a hassle. Most of the people on this board live alot further than we do and they all encouraged us to drive this time. Both my kids have nonrestrictive licenses so they can help out a little also. We're actually excited about the trip down...it will be something different. When we cruised 2 yrs. ago, Delta changed my flight without notifying us (Thank God I checked on my own a few days before. As if that wasn't bad enough, they lost all MY luggage (nobody's else's, just mine)! I remember being so miserable at the sailaway. As it turned out, they actually got the bag to the ship on time, but i didn't know that until we got back to the cabin and the message light was flashing in our room. All's well that ends well.
Gotta get back to work and get these reports ready.......

Anybody else still around????????

 

[eye R.N.]

They decided DH needed to work today and part of tomorrow so we don't leave until noon.

I know it's a good thing his office will be set up when he gets back, but now I get to rearrange the packing, since the stuff from the dry cleaners is here.

The good news, the cam corder that has spent more time at JVC then with us, is back with us. They overnighted it so I can take movies on the cruise!!!!

Jean, we've driven to fla at least once a year since the kids were in car seats. It's really not too bad. I just make sure they have their own music and their own headphones. I may go out and spring for the Harry Potter book on tape.

Chelsea and I did the manicure thing on Monday, we now have matching nails.

I'll check in tomorrow before I unplug the computer and do the final house check.

Safe journey to all. See ya real soon.

 

[jeanneg]

Have a safe trip...see ya soon!

 

[jeanneg]

Denise: What is your cabin #? I made a list so I can remind everyone about high tea when we're on the ship and yours is the only one I'm missing.

 

[joanb]

May your joureys be safe...
jeanneg-I did acounting years and years ago so glad I don't do it any more. I agree with the nail thing-I am a simple person and actual keep mine very short and my girls do to, so when I suggested nail polish they said NO! I have talked one into painting her toe nails. hope you have fun having yours done it is very relaxing.

We have flown several since since 9/11 and haven't had any trouble. I don't really like to fly ( a control issue) but I do like the shorter travel time.

You all have fun and look forward to meeting everyone in person. My daughters and I all have chin lengh hair and my husband is the one who's head is full of curls-his own. And my handsome 2 sons. Joan

joan: I'll only recognize you if you wear the snorkel mask!

 

[joanb]

That's not me in the snorkle but my DD 12 and DS 10 taken April 2002.

Have you gotten your work done? My husband has decided to clean out his grandmothers storage rental this week -it is killing me- going through boxes adn boxes of junk! He said something about going tomorrow and getting another load!

[Dis Mama]

I'm still here following your posts. I have been taking care of Trevor trying to get him well by Friday. I'm really behind on the packing because I did not anticipate Trevor getting sick. He won't go to anyone but me when he is not feeling well (I wouldn't have it any other way though when it comes down to it!!)

Lisa

 

[joanb]

Dismama-Hope your Trevor is feeling better perhaps some good sleep tonight and you will be ready to gotomorrwo.

 

[joanb]

forgot to share My youngest received an autographed photo of Mickey and Minnie in an overnight package form our TA. It is so cool wish I had gotten one.

 

[EPCOTgrl1]

We are in rooms 2122 and 2124. if you leave a note at one my mom should get it!

 

[joanb]

has everyone left for the cruise? I thought there were a couple of you not leaving until 7/4--you muct be busy packing. I've tried to keep busy too to help the time pass. Joan

 

[jeanneg]

Hi joan,
Still here and have just about everything wrapped up. I just returned from the nail salon and my daughter won out (she usually does) The woman said she would give us a special price if we both had it done and i'm such a sucker for a bargain, i couldn't refuse. I've always been a horrible typist, and now i'm even worse. I got them very short, but it's still gonna take some getting used to. I don't know why i always listen to her!
Would you believ that my husband and i have tickets for concert tonight! Like i don't have enough to do. As soon as he arrives home from work, we're gonna take off. We probably won't get home until after 11pm, so I don't know what time I'll get to bed!
I promise to come back one more time to say goodbye.....oops, hubby's home...I'm outta here!

 

[AnnaS]

Still here - very busy though. Went to work at 6:30 am so I could leav early. My daughter and I both got peducures and regular manicures. Yes, she is only 10 but only has it done when we go away and I tell her to run to dad for the extra $$$. Just finished packing. Being picked up at 5 am tomorrow - will definitely not sleep tonite. See you soon and a safe journey to all.

 

[joanb]

Jeane- hope the concert was good. also much to do here...it is dark now and has dried from the rain so hubby is out mowing as we had church earlier as I continue to go through his grandmothers boxes-he brough he a truck load today.

AnnaS-get some sleep your love yourself for doing it and have a safe journey.
