what do you have to trade??? We don't have those latte ones, do you???

wow...it took me forever to catch up I probably skipped a page or two

So sorry about your friend. Feel free to say whatever you like on this board. That's what we are here for.

Ditto...I'm sorry about what happened...hopefully your coworkers that knew her could be of support

I saw the "Being Jane Austen" when it was shown on PBS (week prior to P & P). Quite interesting - didn't know much about her life.

I can watch P & P over, and over, and over again

We just saw that last night...wow I cried so much it was heartwrenching at times and I guess I'm a typical american always wanting the happy ending what a good movie about her life

So sorry to hear this I hope you can get your MIL to a place that can help her get on the road to recovery and help her to make better choices for herself in the future. Maybe the FIL can be urged into counseling and join something along the lines of Al Anon to get help in understanding he is only hurting her by being an enabler.

I agree maybe in time he'll come around...hang in there Nan she needs you now

Many thanks to those of you who directed me to the cruise meet! This is our fifth cruise with Disney! first time through the canal! Will be travelling with DH, DS (12), and DD (10)

welcome

I don't know how to keep up We'll see how the booking of excursions go this weekend at the 75 mark...hopefully they did something to make it better

I loved everyones pics..... Monica what cute pictures she is so cute.

Wasn't sure when to jump in here and introduce myself, so- no time like the present. My DH and I were able to take advantage of a cancellation back in December, right before the $1000 deposit deadline. We were distraught back in January last year when we realized we had missed getting a res. for the second time for the Panama Canal crossing. However, patience paid off for us and we could not be more excited

It is just the two of us, I'm Vicki and my DH is Tom. We have a gty 8 and this is our 5th Disney cruise. I was able to get a res. at Palo for dinner, but missed out on brunch. Can someone confirm the 75 day mark is Monday, 2-25. I want to try again then for brunch. With all those sea days it seems odd to me that I wasn't able to get one before. I've been reading these threads since January and I see many of us are in the same boat, so to speak.

I look forward to meeting everyone in May ,
Vicki

Welcome!!

Oh and congrats to Cheri's family on winning the cruise...Cheri you sure have lots of luck

 

[GatorFamily]

so you guys have made me try new things....went to costco today and picked myself up a pair of crocs never had a pair before we'll see how that goes...hope they are truly comfy especially for the parks I saw the pancake blaster thing was tempted to try it but DS is allergic to eggs and that would mean I would have to make some from scratch ...sort of...don't have time every morning

THanks Cork

BTW - did you see me waving to you as my flight was coming into BWI? (was thinking about you )

Yes, I did. It was nice of the pilot to waggle the wings. Did you see the smoke signals I sent up?

 

[LisaG520]

or not...just the queens....

You would be correct. Although I love you all, it would have been nice to have PMs from SINGLE MEN!

Ok - I have to admit Smarties were not the queens I had in mind when I read Nan's post first

Haven't been to my local Target yet, but a deal website is reporting that Target has the green Olympus SW790 on clearance for $149.99. This is the point and shoot that is waterproof to 10ft.

Don't know if anyone is looking for a small, good point and shoot but this was posted on another thread. I have both this camera and the 770SW. The major difference between the two cameras is that the 770 does underwater shots up to 33 ft and the 790 does up to 10 ft.

Laura, thanks so much for posting. Tonight we found the Olympus 790SW for $149. It's perfect for our needs.

I spend the holiday season at organizedchristmas.com. Just finished my second year organizing my christmas with their help and advice.

I am sad they closed the board there. I haven't joined any of the new ones.

About the ship and its layouts or just Disney in general? Or on their website? Yes, I'm a BIG planner too!!!

In fact, when my husband and I went to Disney World for our 1st anniversary I had a map of every park with rides listed and wrote what time we needed to be at what ride (luckily it was the off season)!! Hey it worked!! We saw the all the parks in 3 days and I broke my foot the day before we left!!! But now with kids I have learned to adjust (or at least I'm trying)!!!

The quest packet - read everything and if something doesn't make sense read it again. Not sure if any guide books would help but it couldn't hurt.

The park versions have a trivia aspect to them in addition to the quests so we have the A-Z Disney Encyclopedia.

We have had a blast on the 2 Mouseadventures we've done so far - park versions.

This is nice, but from Australia, so will be expensive.

Hi, if you want to buy this, you could get it posted to me in Sydney and I'll bring it along with me on the holiday, if you would like. It would be no problem at all.

This is a great camera. Annie and Vanessa both have one. You guys have seen all the swimming pictures I have posted that were taken with camera.

I am going to borrow Annie's to bring on this trip

May I borrow Vanessa's camera? Just kidding -- we bought one tonight.

Thanks, and I agree, just so much of this is new to me I'm overwhelmed....



Thanks



Thanks



Thanks, I wish I could call for this help, unfortunately she back peddled and yelled and screamed at Paul that she had to go home.

We are meeting with her therapist tomorrow to get some advice on how to deal.

I will email you later and we can talk about what might be a good down the road option for her, when and if she is ready to go again. She has done a live in here already and 3 times for a 30 day program







No chance for FIL (not D in my mind these days) he refused to believe that therapy helps and he belittles her for going. It really sucks. Paul and I are going to look into it very soon.

Thanks for all the support please keep the prayers going.

Nan So sorry you are having to deal with this right now, not a good situation. Sending hugs and prayers

Read everything!!!!!

And assume NOTHING!!!

 

[readyalready]

I don't think the plan to not link until after 90/75 days would work if you wanted to do Palo together.

 

[Tracyvp]

I've been cruisin the net and guess who I think is over on mouse planet.

Gossipgirl, only this one is AnnaAnderson.

Okay, I've got to know the story on this. There was someone over at the PassPorter boards asking for Twice Charmed pix as well. What's up? Enlighten me!
