DH just called from work ...

I'd have to hurt someone.

agraygirl, love the button even without the head.

Im working on it now, the store will be back up in a few.


...and on a general note, I've lost 18lbs since the end of Feb!!! Yesterday was my weigh in an measure day. 14.5 inches lost!! Go me! By the time the cruise comes around I'll be half way to my goal. Woot!! Baby fat be gone.

I love these boards, there is always a sympathetic soul out there!

 

[agraygirl]

OKay... we're back in bidness.

It's $1.25 hopefully shipping isn't to bad, I didnt have any control over that part.

The door magnets are really cool

So sorry about the vacation request Katrob.I just got mine signed 2 weeks ago and I put it in in December.They "lost" my request.Good thing I made a copy.

agraygirl - love the buttons! Thanks so much for your hard work! They look great!

Jim - Thanks for the list. Sorry to be a pain, but we moved to AKL for our pre-trip stay. My girls have been begging to go back and the 7 year old actually said "Are we staying at the Boardwalk AGAIN?" Can you tell that my mom and I are the BWI fans???

They are now psyched about AKL - they love the animals and decor! Hopefully the construction noise won't be too bad...that is my main concern!

Still waiting on room assignment! Back to work - I'm never going to get caught up before we leave!!!

agraygirl - Kudos for losing the baby fat! I am trying to shed a few pounds before we go also. Keep up the great work!

KatRob - sorry to hear the boss is being such a pain. I hope it all works out.

The way the boss looked at it, it was just adjusting a day or so. For us, it was actually losing three days. Good thing DH tacked on extra days after the trip for the drive home and resting up before going back to work

The boss's boss has been micromanaging things lately and it makes it rough on everyone. He has never pulled anything like this before. Then again, bosses don't seem to last too long there. Neither do micromanagers!!

KatRob - I would be mad also, hope it all works out. I change you to Seaworld let me know if it goes back to the original plans.

agraygirl - The new button design looks great. Maybe you should try to hide the mickey head.

Here is the latest list:

Jim.

Agraygirl:how do you have time do do everything ?
I love the tshirts I am so glad I didn't put my order in earlier

The shirts were an after thought... I put them up today.
With Cafe Press you just upload the image, select the product you want it on, and then they take care of the rest...

...and Im a good procrastinator ... my house is a wreck! I'm a stay at home mom and work 10 hours a week for a real estate MLS software company.

I just ordered buttons for my family and a magnet for our door sign, I haven't decided if I want to get a shirt or not.

There are lots of different t-shirts, like over 20 different kinds I can add a design to so if you want to put a request in I'll put it up there.

42 days until embarkation!!!

Updated List:

Jim.

 

[agraygirl]

I'm so tired today. Stayed up way to late... bleh.

Are we there yet?

 

[maleficent esq.]

I'm tired too!!! I need a cruise. Just left a block party going to watch game 6 of the Stars tonight. Church in the morning, then going to see Wicked in the afternoon. Can't wait I've heard its great. I'm surprised there are so few families on the boards, I wonder if there will be a chance to upgrade when signing in. I've heard its cheaper to do it at the dock, but its also very difficult a lot of time there is no availability. Hope everyone has a great weekend look forward to meeting soon.

Vacation all worked out finally. Now we are just deciding if we want to hang around Orlando when we return or just head home. It would be strange to be there and not actually go to WDW.

Maleficent: I think you will love WICKED - we sure did. A couple of years ago Melissa's show choir did a OZ theme and did some of the songs. Take your kleenex cuz "For Good" always makes me cry!

Has anyone else made Palo ressies yet? This is our 5th 3 night DCL cruise and the first time I've made a ressie. We have one on the last night of the cruise at 6:30.

Kathy

 

[maleficent esq.]

I don't think we are going to do Palo's, Since we are traveling without children don't really need to get away. I love brunch but don't think they have brunch on the three day. I am wondering if they are going to show the Pirates of the Caribbean III on the ship? Does anyone know how to find out what movies are being shown?

 

[agraygirl]

We have made Palo reservations and put the baby in flounders. Palo's is nice, we did brunch in '06. I'm not sure about it this time and may cancel. Our res is for the second night. But I refuse to miss animators pallet. So we get assigned there Ill try to reschedule or drop the whole idea.

I'd really like to go dancing too.

My baby has never been in any kind of daycare so Im a bit nervous about that. My DS was in daycare from 6 weeks on... so I remember how bad it felt to drop him off that first few times.

Lets plan a get together on embarkation day. The most recent 3-Day Navigator I could find is Oct 2006.

Jim can you add late/early dining to the chart? (My family is scheduled for late dining)

3:30 all aboard, you HAVE to be on board by now.
4:15 Boat Drill
5:00 The ship leaves and the sail away party begins
Lets meet here
6ish early dining starts
6:15 Hercules (for the late diners)
8ish late dining starts
8:15 Herculese (for the early diners) *If you havent see Hercules, you'll not want to miss it!!

I'll keep a bunch of sticky notes on my door and I also have a dry erase board. If we want to make another meeting later in the trip I'll post it there.

Sound good?

The sail away party is at the goofy pool, there are a ton of people. Let's not meet on deck 9 where all the people are, I'm thinking deck 10 where you can overlook the party?

I'm open to ideas.

I also keep meaning to say that those of you with 7 year olds, I couldn't get DS out of the club he LOVED it. Im hoping that now he is 8 he will enjoy the lab as much as he did the club. They did some really cool stuff.
