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

[lillygator]

I always travel with one outfit per day for Tyler. I'm lucky in that he's one of those freakish kids who can't stand to be messy and works hard to NOT make a mess! Actually, I guess I've never heard of a kid like that! But now that makes sense with the OCD diagnosis I suppose.

I will bring too much I am sure!! Oh well, no big deal....just have to ship back a box so we can meet the 50lb luggage weight!

and I just checked, classes don't start again til june 2, we get back the 27th. perfect!!

Great news! If I'm lucky enough to figure out how to come up with $9000 to pay for that semester (YIKES!), I'll be missing week 3 and 4 (or maybe 2 and 3) of the semester. Kind of scary because if I end up sick or something later in the term, I can't miss. We're only allowed 2 absences and if you miss more, you're dropped from the class.

Holly - you need to convince your employers to pay that for you!

 

[HollyTyler]

Thanks Karen It will be 6yrs on Jan 24, I can't believe it has been that long.

Unfortunately, firms don't do tuition reimbursement for law school. Maybe undergrad, but never law school because of the cost.

I thought about it, but I'm afraid of trying to figure out how to ship back! I'll be taking DCL transport to the airport after getting off the ship and therefore unable to stop somewhere to ship.

Now now . . . once every three months or so . . . better than the every other day shoe and dress talk!

Very unlady-like of me, but I HAVE TO AGREE! Sorry girls, I've just never been into that girly stuff.

You can have 8 checked suitcases and 4 carry on. Surely you can get everthing in!

And you can have 4 checked bags and 2 carry-ons!

one is huge though, it probably weighs 20 lbs alone!

Put the light stuff in there - crocs, shoes, beach stuff, water and things that won't be coming back.

 

[lillygator]

we tend to keep the beach stuff since we use it year round, but that sort of thing I will ship back...I am just used to loading up the car!! Not so in this case!

 

[lillygator]

well ok, John is used to loading up the car.

Just pay the $25 over-weight fee and then you don't have to find somewhere to ship from.

Kayla's appointment with the Orthopedic Surgeon was rather uneventful. He looked at the xrays and said "And why are you here?". Actually, this was the best question we have heard in awhile. Great news. We had been worried all week about her having to go through surgery. Lost time and costs can't be recovered, but the peace of mind is wonderful. Her arm has healed perfectly.

GREAT NEWS!

Son is okay, just can't do karate, no running, jumping, etc. for the next week. Deb did explain fish extenders, didn't know the fish was a mail box. I will let my wife pursue this.

I'll try to post a pic tonight of what the fish looks like....or you can go back and look at been2marceline's (Karen's) pics of her fish extenders and just look at what it's hanging from.

well ok, John is used to loading up the car.

Is John like Scott....when the car is done being packed it looks like a perfectly arranged tetris screen? He just packs the car so specifically, then I come and dump something in there and it just freaks him out! So, now I pack it all up and pile it outside the car and he packs it to his satisfaction

Sounds like Scott and I will get along just fine. Love that description BTW - Tetris Screen!

I'll do my MacWorld review later . . . - much later, busy evening tonight too.

I sent off a postcard to Gydell's DGS about my Gingerbread Man sighting.

Exactly! Me, I throw it in there, I mean, you don't really need to see out the back window do you?

Now I have to put it by the door and he does the rest.
