OK, my mistake.

The leg is good. Still wrapping it and using the compression sleves. We'll be ready to go when the time gets here.

Yay Deb! You've been through so much with your legs. I'm glad you'll be in fine form for the cruise!

Good Afternoon Everyone (time 12.03)

I took Olivia to the doctor this mornng as she was nervous and I told her not to worry. Doctor checked it and said that she had got insect bites. Olivia said she had been on the grass and played the football at school lunch times.

Could be that. No cream, no antiboites (sorry cannot spell that), nothing just leave it as the big spot was down this morning so can see yellow spot. Doctor said if leak bring her back. (i hope not)!!

I relieved now not chicken pox or impetigo.

I had not good sleep last night, worry lots of things. Stress gulp.

My husband had been big argument with his horrible boss. He told my husband that he sack him. then after that his boss cool down and laugh off. My husband said to me he cannot wait to see his face next week when he hand his notice.

Now I thought myself oh positive as Cruise is two weeks tomorrow

And it is FRIDAY but I am working tonight huh lol.

Good news from the doctor! You and your DH really need this vacation. Stop stressing and start packing. We leave in 2 weeks!

Oh, I am a virtual walking medicine store....I'll have triple antibiotic ointment, benedryl ointment, hydrocortisone ointment, athelete's foot ointment and powder, After Bite, a BIG selection of Bandaids, Tylenoi, aspirin, ibuprophren, vitamins, etc etc etc etc.

Oh, believe me, I will have tons of medicine and band aids. I don't think I'll bring stuff like the neosporin and other things that are usually in those small cases. Thanks for posting though, I know where I need to go if I need some of that stuff!!!

Thanks Ginamarie, yes, it has been a long time that my legs have been problems, but we are ready to go and the legs will be fine! Yeah, good news!

Nice to see you posting again. I know how life can get in the way at times. Welcome back.....just in time to pack and go!!! YEAH!!!

 

[gaylean93]

I guess size really doesn't matter! No comments on my BIG sub!!!

Whoa! Venetia's a lucky woman!

It's vegetarian!!!!!!!!

Ok, It is snowing in North West Iowa..... I am so ready to get out of here. The temp has dropped over 20 degrees so far and it is still going!! UGH!!!

This weekend is Greek Easter.....it's a big holiday for the Greeks.....bigger than Christmas. This will be my first without my mom and I'm missing her more than ever. John and I decided that we're going to have a small celebration at our house. We'll bring Ray for the event and make some stuffed grape leaves. We're not dying the eggs red and we're not making the lamb, but we'll do something. We'll get the feta cheese and maybe buy some baklava. It won't be like mom's homemade, but it will be better than nothing.

I realize that my days of making it to midnight mass are over. But I asked John if he would take me during the day on Sunday to light some candles and so that's what we're going to do.

John1, I'll be lighting candles for you and Manuel and all of your family.

besides pack, what does everyone have left to do?

I need to buy more clothes for Jon and I need bras really bad and a swimsuit, you know the things everyone hates to shop for.

Thanks Deb! I've just finished a stint of working 7 day work weeks, so finally I have a little bit of time to breath (and post). Good luck putting everything together for your Greek Easter.

I needed swimsuits too.. but I actually found a GREAT deal at BJs wholesale.. very cute one pieces for $12 each. I bought two and called it a day!

I'm finally coming up for air for just a second. It's been a CRAZY week, full of emotional roller coaster rides! The kids had callback auditions for Les Miserables on Monday and we had to bite our nails waiting on the results of that one. Alison was beyond ecstatic to have been cast as Eponine, but Erik was devastated that he was edged out for Javert. It came down to him and one other boy, and the other guy got it. It's especially hard because this same guy (he's a great guy and extremely talented!) swooped in at the last second and beat him out for Joseph in Joseph and the Amazing.... as well as Troy in HSM just this past fall!

Anyway, I probably won't have time to post much before we leave (You think???)) but I do try to read a bit at night (when I can't sleep from the stress!) and I wanted to say WELCOME to the new folks and to report that we got our DOCS yesterday afternoon!!!

I can relate to your son so well. I was into public speaking as a child and I got beat for first place three years in a row to the same girl. I was so mad! But, now I have a Ph.D. and she only has a bachelor degree. I WIN!! (Just kidding)

Hi all,

As most of you know our original order for lanyards ran out. We've had enough people ask for additional lanyards, so we are officially ordering more lanyards and badges.

I am looking for 2 people to donate $20 or $25 whatever you can swing- please PM me if you can donate. You can pay cash or paypal. They will be regular green instead of lime green with no imprinting, but I will make a badge that matches everyone elses. This means we will have many extras if anyone loses their lanyards or ruins them in some way. I'll bring blank badges also for extras or for mis-spelled names etc.

If you are still interested in getting a lanyard please PM me with your extact names for everyone in your party by Monday at the latest!

Let me know what to do and I will contribute to the lanyards. PM me.

Love them!!! Thank you so much! I can't decide how many of these I am going to use for the scrapbook vs which ones will go on my door.....or both!

 

[fourmcds]

I purchased the DCL transfers....no clue if they're 1 and the same

I may just lug my stuff to the bus pick up near baggage claim. I have 2 spinners & a backpack so should be ok.

I will be handing over boxes to their owners at the Hy to go into the Hummerzine.

BTW - where is the Hummerzine picking you guys up?

I will be calling them on Monday to confirm everything one more time, but it should be right in front of the Hyatt. I have never been there so I don't know the layout, but I assume in front where you pull up to register

No time to catch up, will do that tonight, but just wanted to drop in a quick prayer request. A former co-worker and friend has been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia and she just went into the hospital today at U of M to start chemo. She has a husband and a 16 year old daughter, and also a stepson. Prayers please. She recently just got back on her feet from a major depression and just found this out.

 

[ibouncetoo]

Either Sat or Sun I will be heading over to the MK.
Holly I will be looking for the badge for Tyler.

Anyone else need something from there? Going once, going twice...

Remember the 'assignment' we talked about on the phone. I got the ummmm. 'holders' for them.

Don't know if I'll get caught up right now...short lunch. But I think we get to leave early today, so I'll probably DIS a bit before I go.

...catch ya later...

Still awaiting my documents here....but they say they are out for delivery


I am picking up the girls at the bus stop and heading out to our local craft store....it is Webkinz Weekend Craze and most stores have....spend 10.00 on webkinz stuff and get a free webkinz (first 500 people). It starts at 5pm and I have been warned the store will be a madhouse. It will be myself with my 2 and a friend each...if I don't check back here later tonight, I was swallowed up by screaming kids
