May 10, 2008 Ship of Thieves! Stealing the Magic..AGAIN!!! Panama Canal FL to CA!!! Part 3

[HollyTyler]

Well, my eyes are shutting as I type so I had better get to bed. Night Karen. Morning to all (in a few hours)

By the way....thought LOST was pretty good tonight, starting to try and pull some stuff together. Won't say more than that so I don't spoil it for anyone, but I enjoyed it and can't wait to see next weeks. Oh and the preview for DH this sunday looks good too! Finally a new DH

Thanks for not giving away Lost......I couldn't stay awake long enough to watch, so I'll be watching online after work tomorrow.

 

[been2marceline]

Are you ok Holly, you are up soooooo late??!!

Marilyn,

She seems to be catching up, but not responding to us yet! It's pretty "early" in Michigan, and she has been up for at least an hour!!

Holly, where are you? Are you OK??

Karen

 

[HollyTyler]

Do you have much of a break over the Easter weekend? We have Friday and Monday off - we call these holidays over here Bank Holidays. These are any holidays that Banks close historically - Christmas Day and Boxing Day(26th Dec), New Years Day, May Day(for us the 1st Monday in May), Easter, as above, then Spring Bank Holiday(last Monday in May, used to be Whitsuntide, but now a set date), and then August Bank Holiday(last Monday in August) That one just breaks the long time without!!! Most people have these days off work automatically.

Our office closes at noon on Friday, but that's it. Fine by me though because I really can't afford to have any more time off work than that with my tuition due date looming over my head.

 

[granmaz]

Well I have had my blood test and have eaten some lovely seeded bread toast and a home made cappuccino!!! Yum.

 

[granmaz]

Wow,and you're still up Karen! Must be after 1.30am for you and 4.30 am for Holly. to you both.

 

[HollyTyler]

Holly,

The DIS just came back up!

What are you doing up so late!!

Karen

Are you ok Holly, you are up soooooo late??!!

Marilyn,

She seems to be catching up, but not responding to us yet! It's pretty "early" in Michigan, and she has been up for at least an hour!!

Holly, where are you? Are you OK??

Karen

Oh, the suspense! Took me an hour to get caught up here, so I didn't see your questions until just now. Well, I went to bed really early....feeling lousy today. I coughed all night long last night and was lightheaded and stuffy all day, with a huge lump of congestion in my chest all day. Work was the last place I wanted to be today. Yup, Tyler's cold finally caught up with me. I've been really sleep and run down for almost a week, so I knew it was trying to get me. So I was asleep tonight by 9pm I think. Woke up around 3:30am because that lump of congestion decided to finally break up and is creating tons of yucky coughing. Took some more cold meds and figured I'd see what's going on here while waiting for it to take effect.

 

[been2marceline]

Sounds like a yummy smackral after your blood test!

Yes, it is late, just trying to finish up some chores and paper work! I will be toddeling off to bed shortly!!

Have a wonderful day!!

Karen

 

[HollyTyler]

Hi Karen!

And by the way.....Good morning Marilyn! How rude of me......just not used to being here when you wake up and check in.

Goodnight Karen! I'm headed back to bed myself in a few minutes. 4:45am here.....have to get up for work in a couple hours.

AHA!! Wondered if it might be because you fell asleep early!

I hope the cough syrup works. My favorite one lately is Delsium (sp?) it is over the counter and not too bad. The best one that always works that's perscription is the guifeneesen (butchering the spelling!) with codiene. Better living through chemistry!!!

Feel better soon!!

Karen

 

[granmaz]

Holly, I hope you get back to sleep and feel better in the proper morning!

Karen, Have a good night's sleep.

It's lovely out and we are in for a mini heatwave this weekend and next week - 18-20deg Celsius(sorry, can't convert!).

Hope to do some decorating and gardening and coffeeing , but had better hold back on the buns with the cholesterol being a bit high!
Decided I am too lazy to exercise so will get on with some sorting out in the house - it needs it.

Thanks Karen! I know I need to cough that stuff up to get rid of it, but I just want it to stop while I sleep. Headed back to bed. Bye for now!

Thank you! I just peeked outside and see I have to brush snow off my car when I leave for work. Yuck! And there's more coming the next 4 days.

OK.......goodbye for now! Have a great day!

Sorting and de-cluttering... never ends around our house!!

Enjoy your day!!

I'm off to bed too!

Nite Holly, take care.

Morning everyone...Maz, isn't it beautiful today?!

Must get that washing out on the line soon.....

DH went out a bought a cordless mouse...he got a new laptop too and gave up on the touchpad the first day. I'm stubborn and feel like it's a new challenge that I won't let beat me.
You're right. I realized the sensitivity of the touch pad is very, very light. I've decided to keep it that way and just adapt to it. Also, I refuse to give up. I will win out in the end!!! I'm determined!!!
Thanks, but not gonna do it....refuse to let it beat me!!! DH already bought one for his, but I will not let the machine win....I'm in control, not the mouse!!! Right!!!

Deb, I know what you mean....a touch pad won't beat me!

I had a warning about my signature. I have cut quite a bit out, but how on earth do you know, if you are an ordinary person, useless and a dork at techy things, what all the pixel, and all the other techy talk means? Mine looks less than other folks now, but I guess the pictures take more thingumywhatsits. It is all very complicated. I do understand the reasons though, but a 'warning' sounds so official and harder than other words that could be used. After all you get a warning for being inflammatory, trolling, spamming, etc on the boards, and I don't think I am bad!Will have to post a post on the tech thread to see if anyone can check for me.

I had this a while back too so am trying to keep an eye on my sig but it's very complicated!

Did you notice that we are talking about SHOES again

....and that's just as it should be!

Does anyone else feel like they are missing out on cool stuff? I can't keep up with 10 pages a day let alone some days when I've had over 30~! Ok, that might have been two days. I just come to the end and go back a few pages now. I can't do much more than that.

Hope everyone is having a good time and I hope I'll have more time to jump in and chat soon!!!! Just two more weeks and I should be more available. (not that any of you actually care)... just and fyi.

will look forward to you being around more!

 

[UKANGEL]

Me, too! I'm learning as I go along. She will not learn anything remotely fashionable from me, but she has managed to get both her dad and I to do her nails. Baby steps... (Oh, and she has had some rather creative hair dos from her brothers...)

Carolyn

It's funny isn't it? I can't imagine having a son now, having only had my dd....little boys would seem like an alien nation to me!

I finally got some good pictures of the puppy and kitty....Angel and Ella
Now, I just have to get some good ones of the six turtles...HA HA

Beautiful pix Deb!

ok ladies, this will combine the cruise logo and the CG logo into one picture file and it is only 24k, yeah!

Thank you so much for that PJ!

Hey . . . we don't ramble . . . do we ramble? I don't think I ramble . . . but then again, what is rambling really? Is it saying a lot without saying anything? Or is it saying just a little that means nothing? Would I know rambling if it snuck up and bit me?

Us ramble . . . NEVER - these are important conversations!

very very important conversations go on here...every day! There's the one about shoes, the one about champagne tasting, the ones about mascots, the one about shoes, the one about logo's, the ones about lists, the one about shoes...oh yes and the silly ones about sport!

Oh . . . Yeah!

Now I can be a Champagne girl . . . NOT.

Maybe we need a "Beer Boys" - Maybe use one of the lost boys to keep the Peter Pan theme . . . Of course, I am about a party of ONE for that group, unless Dennis has time to get back on.

Love that idea! Mark would be into that too John

Totally not what John's thinking, but I keep picturing a scantily clad man cooling us with palm fronds....

Carolyn

Yes, it could be Peter Pan instead of the Lost Boys. The Lost Boys would be funny, but Peter might be more in keeping with the theme.

....or maybe Captain Hook!

Yeah, I'll wear some really short shorts, some Uggs, and a beer boy t-shirt to the deck sailaway party, and they can put the gangplank back for everyone who will then abandon ship.

Night all.

The mind boggles!

wonderful...but I keep seeing PP with a moustache like John's!

....And the mascots name could be the "Boy Belchers" ....HA HA HA HA HA !!! !!! !!! !!!


I'm just having so much fun with myself here...it's a laugh riot!!! HA HA HA

Deb, wait for me! I'll along with you.....

I don't hink it's lazy to be thinking of sorting out the house though Maz! (well, not if it's anything like mine anyway!)



Wow, there's so much to catch up on today! All that chatting yesterday you all did! I had a strange day yesterday. DH is on call this week and unfortunately was called out at 3.30 am Wednesday morning We'd had a really late night too so we were really exhausted. Luckily they let him come back home at 10.30 am so he got to spend the day with me
Then last night (well, this morning really) he was called again at 1.30 and 3 am Big problems at work. The moeny's good when he's on call (more for our cruises) but it sucks when he's so tired (and so am I!)


So, I'm planning on pottering around in the hosue and garden today, and then maybe taking dd to the cinema later on

 

[UKANGEL]

...and maybe I'll do some chatting to myself here too......

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Deb,

Have you tried any of the other wines that you ordered?

Karen

DH has a bottle of white chilling in the fridge...the Stump Jump. I'm not sure if I'm going to like that one, but I'll try it anyway.

Karen, what goes best with lamb? red or white? We'll take some to Easter dinner at mom's on Sunday. Not sure what to choose. What do you suggest?

What are your plans for Easter Sunday? I think Greek and American are the same day this year...it's not always and we just celebrate Greek Easter, so I'm not always sure.
