Poor Deb....But I'm glad she has such a loving husband to support her! Please tell her we're all thinking about her and wishing her well.She is still at the wound center but it does look like she is going in
Too funny!Holly, I know you all weren't laughing at me - I was
Your US 'fanny pack' makes us all chuckle over here too!
I just love hearing the different meanings of words & phrases. Very interesting! 
Did you check eBay or amazon.com? Amazon has great deals on used books. I plan on eventually getting it too.
Or I might check the library first.
Well it's two hours before I have to leave for my wound care center appointment...where they will probably admit me into the hospital. Of course, I'm freaking out in a panic because I DREAD any type of medical procedure. I need a valium or two or three, but I don't have any. I'm on my own today because John has taken so much time off this past year between me and mom and Ray...he had to go in.
My dog was chasing the cat last night and banged into the back of my legs and I started seeing stars. It still hurts this morning. Great, just when people are going to be poking around on them today. I have such a low tolerence for pain, which I have every day, then I go to a medical procedure and burst into tears when they start poking around adding even more pain.
Well I already wrote down all my illnesses and all my medications...wow the list is long for both. I never realize until I have to write it down. Now I have to pack a bag and get dressed...can you say procrastination....I feel like I'm being a big baby, but I just can't help it. I remember being with mom in the hospital eight times in the last eight months and seeing all the things that they did to her...she was so brave and I am so not.
OK, I have to get my act together...I refuse to think about anything that's going to happen today...I'll only think about Mickey's ship...sipping BBCs by the pool...sitting on the balcony in the middle of the night...hearing the horn go off out of port...pulling into a port with the steel drums music playing...meeting all my new DIS family...ok it's working, I'm feeling better now. Cya all in a couple of days...hopefully not long.
. This summer has been a busy and hot one (no air conditioning 
) so we have not gotten any made. After our cruise the first week of October things will slow down a lot and it will be cooler so we will be starting on them again. If you are interested just PM us.
I remember two slang quotes from a friend of mine who comes from the UK. She asked if she could get a rubber (eraser) from her fellow office mate and brought on hysterics!!I think I am now NOT going to be teaching you all UK slang at the Champagne Girls get together!!!I'll stick with Yorkshire dialect.
Just wanted to let everyone know that DH and I will still be making Fish Extenders

Too funny! I know exactly what word you're referring to for cigarette. Starts with "f", right?
Now, a funny here.
When we first started out growing our business(Church Supplies) after John was medically retired from teaching, we began selling religious items froma company in Phoenix(hence our 2 trips!). Some of these were pencils, rulers and erasers, with religious sayings/texts. Yes, we have always called them rubbers.(Not now though!)
John decided to get some printed items, and sent a request for 2000 rubbers with JM Church Supplies printed on them. Only when the quote came back with the term changed to erasers did we remember!!
The firm must have had a little chuckle at John requesting 2000 rubbers with his name on them!
And yes, the cigarette one is getting more widely known here.
