this time tomorrow we should be at dinner in PC!! Whooo hoo!

I can't find one of Haley's pirate boots and DH's pirate pants....yikes, been tearing up the house looking for them. Right now I am trying to get the girls to sleep, finish packing, more laundry, tidy up and ugh!

 

[lillygator]

I could hardly sleep last night and I am sure tonight and tomorrow will be the same. Can't wait for the lull of the ocean!

 

[suezyq50]

Well I guess everybody is finishing up packing. This thread is very quiet tonight. DH is sleeping, as we are getting up at 4 AM to miss heavy traffic in Atlanta. Safe travels to all.

I love sugar gliders taz. They're so cute. I didn't even know you could have them. Probably not a good idea with 7 (slightly maniacal) cats.

Ok, hair done, nails done (I am surprised I actually decided to get acrylic on them after a year or so with nothing, so that the polish will hopefully stay on. It's been so long now I can't type right again. lol

Tomorrow we head over to Orlando and then over to Cocoa Beach where we'll be staying on Atlantic Ave. Will try to see you guys at the Radisson. My husband actually seemed into the idea, which surprised me, but then he followed it up with how it's kinda late and he doesn't know if he'll want to. I'll see what I can do.

For those who are hanging in Disney tomorrow, have a blast in Epcot together.

The lull of the ocean sounds sooo nice indeed lillygator. I can't wait either. hmm I wonder if I might sleep better for once. That'd be nice.

It's about that time!!

Hello everyone!!

I've been sooooo busy trying to get all the last details finished up that I haven't even been here in DAYS!! BUT...right now, I'm in an Omaha hotel waiting for my 3 AM wake up call so we can board our 6 AM flight tomorrow!!! Everyone is asleep but me.

There's been so much going on here on the boards that I had to catch up with all the reading in the 2 hour car trip to Omaha (I opened a bunch of windows before I left--yes, 10 pgs worth!--since I don't have mobile internet). So I see we're not going to Coz and didn't get my secret desire for a 2nd stop at CC. Oh well. Now I'm scrambling with trying to write down all that I can about the navigators since I didn't know they were posted before we left, so I didn't print them.

Better get back to the Navs!! Can't wait to finally meet everyone!!! (Is anyone else getting a little nervous about it?!?!)

 

[1littlespark]

Oh sure Val, great. I'm not sure I had thought of that, but now that you brought it up.... lol




Hey, anyone still awake who feels like taking their mind off things by thinking of something silly and pointless lol... I'm trying to come up with a name for this year's pre-birthday trip bear and I want it to reflect the trip in some way. Something about it so I'll always remember why I got it. (Like last year's I named Anaheim on my 1st trip to DL) I'm drawing a blank. Anything spring to mind? I gotta be quick about it tomorrow.

We're still here at WDW! Spent the day in the Magic Kingdom. We check out tomorrow and head to Melbourne to spend the night before the cruise. A little out of the way but we got a really good deal on a nice hotel on the beach so thought why the heck not! It'll be a mini-adventure.
We are still Twittering until we get on the boat so if anyone is still around check it out....

See ya soon!!!

wow - still packing here --- doing laundry too. DH and Samantha are asleep Haley is on the couch watching Meet the Robinsons, but she is fading fast. I feel like I am forgetting a ton of things! I need some bonine/dramamine - I usually just take a dose before boarding and never need anymore but like to have it.

 

[lillygator]

is anyone other than me actually working tomorrow?
I still haven't decided about nassau!

 

[lillygator]

I just realized my signature lists two 08 cruises!!

 

[1littlespark]

My husband is working tonight/tomorrow. He'll be home around 2pm then he's gonna take a quick shower and we're going to head out. I need to be completely ready with bags to throw in the car right away.

I have no idea what I'm doing for Nassau, either. Last time I went we were just expected to do whatever my family did, so we didn't give it any thought.

Trying to do a few of the last minute(ish) packing items on the list, but some have to wait until after I shower tomorrow morning. Thank Goodness for Excel.

 

[lillygator]

I know!!

I think I am missing two cabins on the FE list and I have two cabins to make tonight - they are actually families of 5 occuping 2 cabins, not sure if I should make two sets or one to the parents room?

 

[mambrose]

I am working tomorrow too!!! And i am still up packing!! oh well what i do not have- i do not have!!! we decided to get our hard wood floors down while we were gone- and spent the night moving funiture- kinda hard to squeeze a 6 bedroom house full of furniture into 3 rooms (the only rooms in the house that have carpet- ugh) so on top of all that has happened in the last few weeks to us, between job loss and illness, etc. our bodies are physically beat ( moving furniture is rough)- so a BIG HOORAY for VACA!! I never got to post a picture of my family- but i have blond hair- and my son has blond hair- and I am usually yelling at him for something- so if anyone sees/hears a blond lady yelling NO Chase-that is me!! I am wearing my bathing suit to the port- black with white polka dots- with a white jacket on top. I usually try to wear something cute to board the cruise ship- but considering i washed and packed for the family for this trip plus 3 days at the park afterwards in a matter of a few hours at this late hour- i am going for the very relaxed/ true comfort- full vaca mode!!

 

[1littlespark]

I'm trying to chip away at my packing and to do before I go list (like closing certain doors, putting certain things away the cats will go after, etc.) but sadly I think I'm mainly still up because I'm working on getting my hands on the Grey's Anatomy season finale. I wasn't home quite in time for it earlier and I will only watch that alone anyway.

 

[lillygator]

grey's is good-quite unexpected for me!

I love sugar gliders taz. They're so cute. I didn't even know you could have them. Probably not a good idea with 7 (slightly maniacal) cats.

Some states they are illegal, but thankfully not here in FL...You do however need a USDA license to breed and sell them...which I had for a few years. I just got too worried about how they would end up. they are not typical pets like dogs or cats and so you worry more about the research that goes into those who do decide to buy one, and I couldnt take the stress of knowing that they might not be going to a good home so that is why I ended it. I loved them too much to send them to unknowing homes. They are a TON of work and required a lot of care...not an easy house pet by any means. Cute and fun yes, but very exotic and temperamental

Yes I am still up here making sure I haven't forgotten anything...you know of course if I did, I wont remember until tomorrow or after we have boarded the cruise ship We will be leaving Miami tomorrow after hubby gets out of work...thankfully I loaded the car up today so that is ready to go.

I think that I have everything ready to go...I keep asking dad if he had ANY questions regarding Harley (my pup) and he keeps saying No so I hope he does well...My dad isnt quite the animal lover that I am....don't get me wrong, he isn't mean or doesn't HATE them...but he is one that believes that dogs belong outside and should not annoy or ask for anything..besides food and water. But he has to get better living in my house with the cat and dog in the house as well

Well I better go...Im sure Chris will wake me up early tomorrow cause I promised him a trip to Target before we leave to grab some Candy for the cruise

See you guys on the ship

was this for me and the grey's comment I made?

No - not that - I am in a hospital job, just not who I would think Izzie would see!

 

[Tink113]

Hey guys. 4:30 am and we are passing through georgia as I type this on my blackberry. 3and a half more hours and we should be at our house in fl. Woo hoo! Can't wait to see you guys TOMORROW on the ship!

 

[texfinn]

HI Everyone! We arrived last night in Orlando and are getting ready to go to Epcot today. I realized in the early morning that I forgot a zip tie to secure our FE to the fish. Is anyone still at home that can throw in an extra one for us? if not -- do we worry? will it really get stolen? (it is personalized).....

I hope you all have safe trips today and looking forward to the 3 and 10pm meets at Epcot!

See you all soon!
Mati

P.S. haven't had time to catch up but I did read some of the bad news -- I am so sorry. Let's go relax and have a good time and forget about reality for awhile....
