May 10, 2008 Ship of Thieves...May 2008 Repo Thread...Part 10

[TammyAlphabet]

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

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 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 )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 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!

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!!

Tired of reading SOMEONE elses post, so thought I'd listen to you and get back on! I just have to remember to

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!

why didn't the wife give up hers????

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.

Oh no. I'm staying home. I have more friends in my head.

 

[nskjerven]

V's bedtime not mine........yet!

you're mean that you make her go to bed so early

Time to join in for myself and quit relying on DH to keep me in the loop
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.....welcome.....we love dressing up too for the fancy affairs on the ship......it lets us have fun like we were kids again.

Me and my DH each have our own sign ins too.....so do some others on here. Just jump right in and you'll get to know everyone.....especially with Ken helping you.

or (insert drunken falling down smilie here) over and over again.... oh look I found it

 

[BubbaGrump]

Swore I'd never wear Crocs and somehow in the last few weeks I aquired THREE pair!!!

 

[nskjerven]

Oh no. I'm staying home. I have more friends in my head.

not as fun as us.

HEY WHERE IS MARR!!!!

 

[taysmom]

She wasn't wearing one...she had a tank dress and was very small...she kept apologizing to her hubby for that...I felt bad, was drunk and got dared by my table mates...so thats all it took. They got 50 points, won their pens and left happy...maybe they had a little magic later.......

 

[LuvBaloo]

Wow - these threads move fast - switch screens to catch up on some Scrabulous games in Facebook and its jumped 3 pages!

Kathe, sorry to hear about your problems. Reading your post, brings to mind many thoughts about my own father. My sympathies go out to you.

 

[taysmom]

Marr had plans tonight...again. She's dumping us for real people!
