May 10, 2008 Ship of Thieves! Stealing the Magic..AGAIN!!! Panama Canal FL to CA!!! Part 2

[nskjerven]

Who mentioned shoes!!!

yay:

Thanks for reminding me about the SHOES

I'm actually dising at my desk, thank you Holly you inspired me today and I can get the Crocks site from here (I've got to get my laptop flash problem fixed...I think somehow the evil anti shopper virus hit my laptop and won't let flash there because it knows then I could really shop on the couch infront of the tv...dising....)

 

[granmaz]

That anti-shopping virus is pure evil!!

 

[HollyTyler]

okay that husband would be mine .... I told you, his nickname is Pope Paul....




I'm almost afraid to mention that he has gotten it not only for me but for my girlfriends too...one day their husbands are going to punch him in the nose for making them look so bad....

hmmmmm note to self, might have an alternative on Fish mail...coffee delivery service on the last day....

I guess now would be a bad time to mention that on the last bit of time on vacation he sends me and the kids out to play so he can pack us up to go home....oh man I'm digging my own grave here huh?

Where on earth did you find him? And does he have an available family member for me?!

 

[nskjerven]

going to have to try on come crocs...at the mall, not sure I could wear those flip flops so I better try them before I buy them online...

thanks to all of you who inspired me....

I need new shoes....

like I needed another whole in my head.

at least they are Jimmy Choos...

(well I will be at the mall, so I might have to go to Nordstrom and it is my birthday this month...March 30th)

I saw this thread. I already have picture mats on my list of send ahead items.

I also want to remember to order the cookies at bed time. And coffee on the last night since no room service on the morning they have to kick me off. At least I can have coffee while getting ready to leave for that last breakfast.

Venetia

This a great idea, as i have to get up and go to customs at 6:15 without waking up my sponsor family, lol.

 

[nskjerven]

in a bar...yes for real....15 + years ago...we thumb wrestled for a date (who ever lost bought dinner) (I won, on both accounts)

no family member, with him I'm afraid the mold was broken....

UH OH! I'm a bad influence....DISing at work!

I also had the pillow cases done on our first cruise but my pens were rather drab, too light in color I think. I got the fabric ones, rather than sharpies. This time sharpies.

I love the idea of making this pillow case a bit more special too, perhaps the logo and the dates. I bet we could put our heads together on this project as the time draws near...now how to remember to do it. We need a To Do list or a not for forget list. Aunty any way to add that? Or maybe it should go on the website, pj...Thoughts?

I also have a really high quality copy of the characters in front of the ship and would be happy to do up a couple of designs with dates. Will post them in the photos page of the website.

Sounds like he's truly one of a kind! You lucky girl!

I'm in on the Palo's marathon...specifically how many times can I have the chocolate souffle?! Really that's the whole reason we're taking this cruise...15 days means more opportunities to go to Palo's!

I want to sign up for this marathon!

Back to Mascot Talk!

I see your mascot and raise you Testuto! University of Maryland's Fierce Terrapin!!!......

I never knew what a terepin was...now I know! How 'bout this? A Charlie Horse! LOL

...But, I have never eaten at Palo's is that bad to admit?! We have only done 1 other cruise (what I called a teaser) and it was a 3 day. There just wasn't enough time to do anything and Palo's meant too much planning for us, so we didn't go. I guess I will have to change that this time....so, it really is worth it? Gee, I feel like I should do another dcl cruise before this one just to learn some more things.

Yes, it's really worth it!
Are we going to have a big DIS brunch or dinner? We could reserve the private room...any takers?

Oh you guys haven't seen anything yet. I think DH opened and closed the brunch on the last cruise.

My kinda' Guy!

...lol obviously another fan....he'll get on with my Dh like a house on fire!

"House on Fire" That's great! LOL

Yes Please, I would like to do this for our MED Cruise!! I love the pillow from Pottery Barn...I try to never go in that store.....my total weakness!!

I redid the beach house two years go and I think I spent $10,000 in linens from PB....If my DH knew that he would KILLLLLLLLLLLLLLL me!!

Any other PB fans out there? In Leesburg VA there is an OUTLET store. I think it is their only one. It is really really nice. I love it!!

I love the pillowcases Lisa! Where did you ge the iron-on piucture and text? Did you buy them or do them on your computer and then print them out? They look fabulous!

I got the clipart for free online, I can give you the website (I have to look for it). The fonts I had. I then created the whole thing in MS Publisher and printed them out onto the iron-on paper and then put them on the pillowcase. Lessons learned after ruining one pillowcase...do not use fabric softener. Also, with the iron-on, you really can't wash them, so they become a decorative pillow that you hope your kids don't dirty because once you wash it the iron-on looks funky, not crisp like in the picture. So far my kids have not touched theirs and just left them on display, which is why still look nice!

love it too, but I stay away as I could easily redo the whole house there. (in an afternoon) and then be killed by evening for doing so....

Perhaps when the lottery comes 'eh?

 

[LiserAnn]

I might be bothering you for ideas as we get closer

Thank you and yes, feel free to ask away (I answered the rest of your questions a post or two prior to this one). I'm not an expert by any means, but I did the best I could and I tend to be a perfectionist (which is a problem)...

 

[granmaz]

Goodnight all. Just can't stay up any longer. Have a good evening.

Heck, if I win the lottery, I won't have a house to decorate because I'll be living on the Magic!!!!!

Goodnight! See you tomorrow!

PJ-yes that would be great!! Thank you!!!!

Being as non technical as I am, I cannot tell you the amount of time and energy I spent making those pillowcase designs. It was ridiculous but done out of love, so I ignored the time spent.

 

[nskjerven]

you're right a house and new stuff in it, what was I thinking

nite maz, chat with you tomorrow.

I'm out for a while, lunch, pick up kids, play practice, IT's THURSDAY !!!! SURVIVOR!!!! I'll chat with you guys from the couch & tv later

Nan
