Just finished on the phone and I am back off to the hospital.....I will take my blackberry to chat so I don't go crazy.....west coasters....stay up so I can talk to someone....

Good Luck Lisa.....we'll be here for you!!

Not driving, still flying, former co-worker driving us to airport. Long story, but it's all good and I'm not arriving Fri night instead of Sat!

So glad to hear this!. I don't know know why I thought your were driving? Must be the menopause thing again.

AND FINALLY, STILL MORE GOOD NEWS!

I have a job interview Wednesday at 8pm for a bankruptcy paralegal job! It's part time, in the evenings, and I'm hoping they're flexible enough to allow me to work Wed, Thurs, Fri evening and all day Saturday, so if I get the test scoring job, I can do both jobs for a while, just long enough to get caught up on medical bills and to get money saved to get back to law school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I interviewed with this firm back in December '04 before I got my current job and I really got along well with the people there, but they needed somebody with experience, and at that time, I'd never even worked in AN OFFICE, let alone a law office. At that time, I remember them telling me the night jobs are part-time and that they'd work my schedule around Tyler's schedule with his dad. Hopefully they'll still do the same!

Wow Holly, it sounds like things are really starting to come together for you. We'll all be thinking positive thoughts and sending our prayers for it all to work out exactly as you want.

I'll have to wait until DH gets home because I have no idea how to take pics off the camera! One is just those paint chips in all of our favorite colors with our names on them in a port hole, well a circle made out of construction paper with a blue center. The other thing is like a 12x12 scrapbook page with me and my DH through the years because this is our 10 year anniversary gift to each other. We've actually been married 11 but not when we booked! And I'll have some Disneyland pics in there as well. You guys look like you did everything on the computer, mine is all cut and paste. I got a frame that I wanted to put on there that has a lot of space for people to sign. I wanted to put it on the door but DH wants to let the characters sign it and put a pic of the cruise in it later. What do you guys think?

We had the characters sign a mat abd then framed it with a pix from the cruise. We love it, it's a great reminder of a wonderful cruise. We have also cut and pasted door signs. It's really what you have time for and the computer ones take less time. I loved the cut and paste ones that we have done. I'm sure yours look great! And you'll know what room is yours!

 

[EllaEnchanted]

I'm sorry to hear about Frank......Did you say he was coming on the cruise? I hope everything works out for the best! Connie

No, Lisa is bringing Daniel, her 18 year old son, on the cruise with her. Frank is her father-in-law.

No you're not losing it. Holly was flying down. Then Holly was driving down as of 2 nights ago. Now she is flying down. Much better and easier!

Yup! And this time it's not changing because the flights are BOOKED!

 

[MrsMork]

You have a great set on signs...some of us don't even have one

And some of us just have leftovers from previous cruises. Guess if they are not dated they can be used again.

 

[HollyTyler]

Thank you! These 2 jobs would be just the chance I need to get things back on track.

How are you feeling Angie? So sorry you had to be sick for Bunny day. Were you able to keep any food down today? How is Dr. Hug feeling?

Thanks to all of these people we have 300 lanyards on the way. The company did a close match to the Mickey Head paint chip and we decided to go with black print because the white wasn’t showing up on the green as well. So, now we wait for them to arrive.

I want to thank all of the people who offered to contribute, but we got all the money we needed with these 22 people. Thanks very much to all and they are on the way.

I ordered an extra 80 lanyards, but we’ve had so many additional orders since I ordered the lanyards that we are nearly sold out. So if you haven’t sent me an order form you need to PM me with your email so that I can send it to you.

This is getting to be quite an adventure! I eagerly await each installment. But what a hassle for you. I hope you have all the pieces by the time of the cruise!

It's a good thing I started so far in advance!

I'm going to have to go door hopping just to see everyone's door signs......I love the creativity......they're all so great.

One of the things that makes the FE gift delivery so much fun!

 

[HollyTyler]

And my freebies have started rolling in already from the freebie thread on the DIS! Not big things, but lots of little lotions, shampoos, conditioners, a couple books, a coupon for a free 6pack of Yoplait kids yogurt, etc. I'M LOVING IT! I forgot to stop at the store and buy conditioner today, but found a mini-bottle in my mailbox today, so that's good timing!

 

[EllaEnchanted]

I didn't even think of that, but Angie you are so right. That's going to make the gifting even way more fun that I initially thought it was going to be. Wow cool!

 

[HollyTyler]

Time to put the jelly beans away and get some real food before I crash from coming down off my sugar high. I fall asleep after having so much!

 

[MrsMork]

How are you feeling Angie? So sorry you had to be sick for Bunny day. Were you able to keep any food down today? How is Dr. Hug feeling?

We are better, thank you. We haven't eaten much today and plan soup and crackers for dinner. I am still a bit light headed, but WAY better than yesterday. Dennis is feeling a bit better tonight also. He has a 12 hour shift tomorrow, so I am glad he gave up the 5 hour shift today and just stayed home and rested.

 

[HollyTyler]

OOOOOH! Houseparty.com is doing a Margaritaville party on Memorial Day! I signed up for the Hershey Bliss party but I don't think they picked me because I never heard back. Bummer. I could easily find a bunch of women to come over and sit around eating free chocolate!

Florida Gators......does the name Jesse Palmer ring a bell...grew up here in Ottawa

Congrats Holly....it took me an hour to get caught up and in that time your19 hr drive was replaced by a flight

well the bags are all out and open and some items have disappeared in there..not to be seen for 45 days...isn't it great!!!!!!

 

[NotSoLittleMermaid]

Anybody going to watch POTC3 on deck? Now that will be very late so I might fall asleep.

I'll be there, but I might fall asleep, too. Today I watched some J Depp interviews on YouTube. I love him!

THANKS, TEAM! I'm so excited!

Thanks, bracelet team, too! So many fun things!

Ok been working on some magnets for our door. I've got one that I'm just not sure what to put on it but I do like the layout. Just gotta figure out a way to personalize it still. I like to make them business card size. Any suggestions?

Great job! I didn't think I'd make door magnets, but now I'm wanting to. I, too, would like to "borrow" your first design!
