Time to join in for myself and quit relying on DH to keep me in the loop :goodvibes
Counting down the days until we leave. Mixed emotions right now - want vacation to hurry up and come, but still have lots to do to get ready. Had a ton of fun dressing up as pirates on our first cruise, so this time making matching tropical print dresses for DD's & I, with matching shirt for DH. There's not enough opportunities to play dress up, so taking full advantage of it ;)

Hi Shannon nice to have you join us and keep Ken in line.:lmao:
 

Well, I tried really hard in part nine to keep up. So sorry I got behind, hoping everyone is doing well .

I'm sorry that a lot of us are dealing with so many hardships. Hugs and prayers to all in need.Tammy and John and Sophia...my thoughts are with you...and everyone else that needs:hug:

I have had a rough week. My son and his GF and my GD have decided they can't live together.My son's girlfriend is just too homesick, and wants to come home to her family, and her and my son have not been getting along. So they are flying home tomorrow night, but my son is staying in Alberta. I'm ecstatic at getting to see my GD this weekend (haven't seen her since Nov) but so sad that this seems to be another family that will not be united. My son loves both his GF and his daughter, I hope we all find a way to stay connected.

Then I got up this morning (my day off) and had a little time to read the paper, a luxury, and happened to read the obits. My birth father (haven't seen him in over 20 yrs) has passed away :sad1: I always wondered if I would know when he was gone. If I hadn't read the paper then I would not have known. I called one of my brother's, and he only knew because his wife had read the obits too. My birth father ( my mother divorced and remarried long ago) was an alcoholic . I was 11 yrs old when he left, so remember him and although I tried to keep in touch until my early 20's, lost touch when he just never seemed to be interested in me or my family (booze was just so much more interesting :sad1: )So here I am today, mourning my father, but really, mourning what could have been...I may have lost out on having him as a father, but he lost out on knowing me and my children, his grandchildren. How sad :sad1: I feel so sad for him, for myself and for my children.

Sorry for such a bleak post .

Looking forward to this vacation more than ever!

Oh Kathe,

I'm so sorry. Hard on both ends. Perhaps your son and GF can figure it out when they are apart. Sometimes apart can bring light to the situtation. :hug:

Also :hug: for the loss of your father. I'm sad to hear that you are also dealing and have dealt with the issue of an alcoholic. I will keep you in my prayers.
 
Hi bubba, night V

And Gaylean...on the med cruise it was me and 3 other ladies, a young newlywed couple and 2 men (partners) every night at diversions. We all got along great and I won a ton of prizes in the games. Sometimes others would come and stay for a while, but they'd always leave...the most people I saw was on 70's night and that was because there were about 10 staff people too.
 
ya caught me again, Ken, stop telling on me.:happytv:

Guessing we probably have a lot of the same tastes in shows then. The only reason why I'm catching you is because I'm guilty of doing the same thing!!
 
Oh and one night we played a game that involved couples , so I couldn't play but they had to get stuff from their partners or the audience....They asked for a bra...and guess who took hers off to give it to one of the couples...thats right 3 mojitos is all it took for me to help someone win a pen set!
