Bubba - thanks so much for the pm.....on my list for more research! I told my friend yesterday that I was starting the research for our 2009 trip and all she had in a response was "you crack me up".

Hey what's so funny about planning for your 09 cruise....John and I already decided we're doing the New Year's Eve 09-10! After 3 cruises this next year I can't quite do it in 08....but I can do it in 09! Then it'll be great to celebrate the end of the 00s and go into double digits! Anyone want to come too?

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:


The only thing honestly that I don't really like about cruising is that once you're booked and the flights purchased there really isn't anything else that needs to be planned....atleast not until the shore excursions come out. I LOVE to plan trips! The research is 1/2 the fun!

I just wanted to share some good news.

My brother has finally been told that his stem cell transplant worked. :woohoo: He was originally told they would know after 2-3 weeks and it has been 7 weeks, so he was pretty much convinced it hadn't taken.

He is still very seriously ill, from the damage caused both by the disease itself (myeloid fibrosis) and by the chemotherapy - from which his liver has suffered particularly badly. But at least he now knows it is worth continuing to fight through it all because hopefully he will eventually recover completely.

Thank you for all your prayers and pixie dust.


It Works!!! Sending you more prayers and pixie dust for a speedy recovery!

can I tell you all how much I love my new boss?

Yesterday I met with him, my old boss and a co-worker, who is a supervisor of the vacant position which I have taken on most of the duties while a replacement is being found.

He came to my office and shut the door this morning and I am thinking oh no! But he said he wanted to apologize for her behavior yesterday, that she was extremely unprofessional and quite rude. He said it was apparent she was not interested in the duties of the position she supervises and not willing to help either. He was appalled that when my old boss said thank you and how much he appreciates that I stepped up to help she didn't even say a word. These duties are her responsibility and also when the auditors come in for rec's on all these accounts it is going to be up to her to explain them!

He also mentioned that he went to lunch with my old boss and the controller and he told them how he felt and that she has a long way to go as a supervisor.

:) Thanks new boss!


You boss sounds like a fair and decent guy!! Any chance you can permanently take the vacant position or is it on the same level you are on now?

Hope the rest of you and the rest of your family feels better soon!!

actually it would be a step down and it's really not something I enjoy.

the right one will come along soon, I am just happy to be in a relaxed work environment as far as hours, etc go.
 
Thanks. I'm a bit worried. I don't want him to wind up in jail when he gets older, but I've never heard of a kid being so threatening so young. Very scary.

OK....off to have lunch and then to talk to school about any counselling they might be able to offer. Tyler's not happy about me not playing with him, but I've told him he's not here for playtime with me. He doesn't get to do much other than sit today. No fun for him....and that's the point! I asked him if he's getting bored and he admitted that he is. It's pretty obvious too.


He's not going to end up in jail because you're doing everything right at a young age. There is a reason for his anger. It just needs to be discovered. You will find your answers and fix it. Don't beat yourself up, you're the best mom ever! Tyler is a great kid too! It will get resolved.

:hug: :hug: :hug:
 
I was on the budget board reading all of the christmas goodie recipes...yum! I can't wait to start baking for the holidays!
 
I hope that you and John find lots of joy and healing on your cruise. You both deserve a relaxing fun cruise with lots of champagne dreams!!


Lots of Champagne and Belini's!!!!!! Thanks Noel....Everytime I drink a Belini, I will be thinking of you! Cheers!!!

I think you are very smart not to overextend yourself with small children as you have plenty enough on your plate right now!!
 
Jackie....Happy 28th Anniversary of your employment...that is quite an accomplishment, especially in today's climate. You should feel proud!

Gina Marie...How was the So You Think You Can Dance show??? I bet it was great live! I love that show and had tickets to last season's live show, but got home from FL trip late and issues with mom, so I had to miss it. This season was even better than the last, I thought. I would have loved to have seen it live. Maybe next year when things calm down a bit. Hope you enjoyed it!!!!!!

V...I think it's a highly and unusual occurance to be appreciated and complimented for the work that you do. It's nice to know that the powers that be notice and take the time to let you know. Good Job!!!!

:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:
 
This is what I read on the net about the shooting

BREAKING NEWS - Shooting at a non traditional high school in Cleveland; witness says 3 taken out on stretchers

A gunman opened fire in a downtown high school on Wednesday, and a witness said he saw three people taken out on stretchers.

Mayor Frank Jackson later said that the school had been secured, although police were searching floor by floor.

Ronnell Jackson, 15, said he saw a shooter running down a hall at SuccessTech Academy.

"He was about to shoot me but I got out just in time," he said. "He was aiming at me I got out just in time."

Another student, Doneisha LeVert, said she heard the principal say "Code Blue" over the public address system, and the students started running. She said she hid in a closet with some of her friends.

Tammy Mundy, 38, who has a son and daughter at the school, told The Plain Dealer of Cleveland that her daughter called when the shooting started.

"She said, 'Mom they're shooting in here, kids are running out, I'm hiding in the closet,"' Mundy told the newspaper.

Then she called her 18-year-old son, Darnell Rodgers, on his cell phone, and he told her he had been shot in the arm.

"He said, 'Mom I got shot,"' Mundy told the newspaper.

Monica,

Thank you so much! We will be there!

As to the Cleveland shooting - I heard it first from you guys. This has become a national problem. I can envision airport security at schools in the future.:sad2:
