I'M ALL PACKED!!!!

I have two bags and was trying to divide them up so that they would be about the same weight...and they are EXACTLY 32 pounds each! That means I can buy stuff on the trip!!!!!!!

good for you!! you must feel better now!!

Stacey, I had a moment like you ... this weekend I realized I could not find a new pink tank that I bought. I searched all over then figured I threw out the bag when I was doing to my mad-dash clean-up last weekend for the party. This morning I realized there was also a white tee that I couldn't find either & would have been in the same bag. I could deal with accidentally throwing away 1 shirt, but 2 ... ugh!!! I decided to go take one more look. I found them ... . I put them on a shelf in my closet & they got covered by a pillow. I'm relieved.

I can't find my "Twice the Magic" baseball hat. I am not much of a hat wearer here, but like to keep the sun off my face and head in the tropics. It has to be in the house somewhere, but with all the kids and company at my house right now, I don't know if I will ever find it.

I am jealous....not really packed at all. I have set some things aside, but no packing has been done!!!

Hmmm...that doesn't sound good!! We need some pixie dust for some great weather next week!!! I would hate to miss CC due to rough seas/bad weather after I have heard so much about it!!

Sounds like everyone is already packed up & ready to go ... not us!!! The suitcases are out but nothing is in them yet. We had to get through the dance recital this weekend. That's all done, so now I can concentrate on VACATION!!!

Emily (DD-8) went from not wanting to spend a single minute in the kids club to not wanting to spend any time with the family. I printed out the navigators last night & she started looking at the activities. She wants to do EVERYTHING.

We got the cases out this weekend and Aubrey 1/2 packed as he has a busy week. I got most of Adam's stuff packed but he want's to wear his formal clothes for graduation on Thursday.
I never got around to make my FE so that has to be done this week but my FE gifts are 80% done.

Wanted to wish all those traveling from across the country safe travels this week.

We are not listening to those bad weather bugs -- lalalalalalalalala


We are getting some much needed rain here in Central Florida for the next few days. I saw on the NOAA site that there is not a warning anywhere near where we are going next week. Maybe it's just the start of the summer rain pattern. You know -- really stinkin' hot during the day and a cool shower in the afternoon to bring on a beautiful evening.

Getting packed this week. We are heading over Saturday morning about 8:00. We hope to be there around 10:00 or so.
Can't we start boarding at 10:30??

 

[Disneyelf10]

I'm not packed yet either! I gotta get a move on! I did take today off fom work to get things started. Last night I was stressing out about this week all the things I needed to get done. With laundry, checking in on my niece and her packing, her graduation is Friday night, returns of clothes I bought and change my mind on (really want to return as I have a bad habit of not returning and never wearing ) etc....so I'm playing hookie! Then to top it off, I need a new kitchen facuet as it is leaking with water running dwon the pipe last night so dishes are backing up, my brother and 2 kids will over all week for dinner, SIL away on business....I can't wait for vacation!!!!! Now onto the fun things- need to make a stop at the craft store to finish up my FE gifts.... see you all soon!

 

[justmestace]

I'm stuck at home this morning waiting for a repairman, so I have laundry going. Made the mistake of asking Jared to give me ALL of his clothes.
I should have let that be his Dad's problem this weekend.

Oh well....I'd probably be too antsy if I didn't have something to do and something to gripe about!



ONLY FOUR MORE "SLEEPS" FOR US!!!!!

You can usually get in at the terminal about 10:30 to go thru security and the checking in process but to board the ship is closer to noon...

Last call for AL-CO-HOL

Please, if you can, respond with a hearty "YO HO" if you want to see a little nip or two show up in your FE.

Only those who DO want them.

It might be a good idea for those who want them to also jot down eachother's names. That way, if you get something you don't like, you can call another person's room and trade.

[justmestace]

Have you two given any more thought to being our "Honeymoon Couple" for Match Your Mate??? It's really fun. And ssshhh.....I can give you the questions ahead of time.

yeay!!!

I just spoke to DH, he was going to bed and i'm off to the first cocktail party of the vening soon. I won't speak to him again til he arrives in Atlanta on Wednesday, so now i'm getting even more excited.

You know having the cruise is really helping me get through my meetings. Especially as it gives me something to talk about when they all say, "so when you flying home" i can waste 5 minutes of the meeting telling them all about my plans.

Really looking forward to meeting you all now.

Hope you're enjoying your time here in ATL. It was a little chilly here today & will be quite nippy in the a.m.
