Note the saved loungers at 7am!

Argghh! There should be a 10 minute rule. Stuff left for 10 minutes gets dunked.

I've been out cutting blackberry vines. UGH!! I would be a happy woman if I never heard the word blackberry again! They are a weed here in the northwest and take over everything. I have been cutting and raking around the pump house yesterday afternoon and this morning. DrHug needs to paint and replace the roof on the pump house, but he has to be able to get to it to do that. We spray them each fall and spring, but don't want to spray close to the well so those have to be cut out, raked into a pile and burned. They have horrible thorns. OUCH! I covered up with jeans, double long sleeves and thick gloves this time so I only have gotten stabbed a few times.

Angie, that sounds like an awful job.

I have to go take my berry britches off and put on something respectable. We need to run up to the MH dealer and pick up our rig. We had all the little things we found that needed to be fixed done at the one year mark....free.

Free is always good!

. . . I test drove the Smart Car this morning.

Ian - thanks for the thorough review.

I'm stubborn enough to shove one of those towels out of the way and sit on the chair and when that person comes back to complain, I have no problem reminding them that there's no saving of chairs allowed.

Just been on the calendar on PJ's siggy and I noticed for our last full day mention of a Dis sit down lunch. I must have missed that somewhere, but it sounds a great idea as the next day we will be all saying our goodbyes. W4ll apart from a few folk we will bump into in DL that is.

Jackie, I think your name was there as the co ordinator. Any info?

I think we just said NOON at Lumieres **OR** do you guys think Parrot Cay would be better...that way we could table hop without confusing servers?

Whichever we decide, I will take care of alerting the head server for whatever team has that restaurant that day, so they can 'reserve' a section of the restaurant for us. Whichever....wear your lime green stuff!

 

[iankh]

are most guys going with just the black tux? I am debating on the black tux versus the two jacket set. I can see the white jacket getting little hand marks all over it on the way to dinner!

Two sets here. Black tails, white pique vest and white bow tie and white dinner jacket with black vest and black bow tie.

hmmm, I would like to do both but I just see the white one not making it.

 

[gydell]

So who wishes they were here right now?

I'm right above there in a few weeks!

 

[HollyTyler]

Well, I'm out of here for the day. Have to tie up some loose ends around here and get ready to pick Tyler up, have dinner, then head to the Easter vigil at church this evening. Gonna try to swing by Target on the way to pick up Tyler to grab one last item I forgot that I wanted in his Easter basket (a book from a series he loves -- Treehouse series or something like that). But if I don't have time, that's OK too because I'll just add to his basket the goodies my folks brought yesterday. In addition to tons of candy, they brought sidewalk chalk and a can of silly string. OH! Have to stop at the store for carrots to leave for that crazy bunny! He'll get hungry hiding all those eggs outside!

I'll be back late tonight to catch up with everybody.

Ok...got to go and start the day. I made a cute flyer to put in the kids treasure chest (we are suprising them tomorrow with the cruise). I made a map that will be taped to our door so when we get back from my parents they will see it. I put an X on the map where the treasure chest is that is full of pirate stuff, 100 pins for trading, and their lanyards. This is what it says:

EASTER 2008
Aye! You found the treasure! You are indeed excellent pirates. Please join me on a 15-night cruise on the Disney Magic as we follow the path of pirates of the past through the Panama Canal! Ms. Symon, Ms. Brown, and Mr. Shermon have all given their approval for missed school. Be sure to be good and thank your Mommy and Daddy for this trip of a lifetime!
Love,
Your pal Mickey​

And then I added our logo and a seashell/beach border. I think I might make it into a magnet. The people listed are their teachers and Vice-Principal. Can't wait!

Love the letter but shouldn't it be from the Easter Bunny?

 

[gydell]

Dennis is just doing his suit this trip. Guess he will be underdressed! Please don't point and laugh.

Bill is doing a suit too!

 

[cquick]

AAACCKKK!!!! My eyes, my eyes!

OH, MY! I actually have that pattern here at home, I could run out to Walmarts or Joannes and buy that neon green and make a dress like that and then wear my pruple wig! OH< YEAT!

 

[granmaz]

right now we are debating on whether or not to renew our Gator tickets....we don't have the money number one, but if we let them go, we will probably never get them again......we've been season tickets holders for so long I just hate to see them go.

Any chance you could pay monthly for your Gator tickets or something like that?

I'm right above there in a few weeks!

Have a look at this pic then. Not mine - by DCLLVR, from the DCL pic thread.

Looks just like it is taken from a lifeboat!!!

 

[granmaz]

I don't know why the photos are nice and big over on the picture thread but come oput smaller when i copy them to Photobucket!!

 

[pjpoohbear]

Marilyn, if you have for max file size on photobucket set to a smaller size then the file you upload it will store smaller then it was on the photo thread. Check your options (at the top of the upload box.)

Ah right, thanks. Just had a look. It is actually set on 'message board' - 640x480. What would be a good size then? Next size is 800x600 and up from there.

Sounds like the Magic still has a little engine trouble according to a cruiser who arrived back today. They were late into CC and knew they would be 2 days earlier. Going a bit slower.

Edit to say another cruiser on the same cruise said the weather wasn't good so the slowed things down. Who knows really?

On the picture thread they try to stick to 800x600, which explains the smaller size when you post it over here.
