November 25, 2012: Mexican Riviera on the Wonder

Also, could we add on row 22 to the final headcount on the S/S? I know it just didn't get updated when you added them.

Again, that spreadsheet is a lifesaver.

Here is the updated S/S I think I got all the changes - Our first FE was with a group that did a pretty awesome s/s and just loved it. I will bring several printed ones to the Meet and Greet - I will watch for your last post on Friday and Print The Final List on Friday Night - We are leaving Saturday Morning.

Okay,

There are a few items I think I've missed along the way. If you guys could check them and let me know.

Franandaj - Do you want last name included?

9 more days till we leave!!!!!!!!!

YEA!

We are good with last names but they are both different. I think I PM'd you the names, but if not let me know and I'll send them again.

We are in single digits tomorrow!

Okay,

So, I was thinking of the best possible way to break up goody delivery days. Here is what I came up with, please let me know if this works before we make it final.

A point to remember when looking at your day....

2) A lot of people always want to deliver their stuff first as a lot of them have things to deliver that can be used throughout the cruise. I'll try hard to honor the requests but please let's try not to move days around too much.

Day 1 (Sunday afternoon or night)

What I did was just go in order of when people joined the FEE. I thought that was pretty fair.

Let me know if everyone is okay with this. I will finalize the list by Friday night. Thanks!

My only concern is trying to get everything done the first day. My partner is disabled and requires a lot of assistance. Between booking activities for the week, our 3PM meet, the muster drill and trying to get unpacked, I'm not sure how much time I will have to deliver the FEE gifts. If anyone would like to switch, I'd be happy to. My gifts can be used on and off the ship.

I don't want to disappoint anyone by not getting them delivered in a timely manner on the first day, or delivering them so late at night that they are stolen before morning. I'm more of a night owl than early riser.

I'll switch you with someone else. No problem! This is to have fun, not stress out.

The Foster's will trade with you - We are scheduled for Wednesday if you want Wednesday.

 

[sheadley]

Ok. Switched you two.

 

[franandaj]

Ok. Switched you two.

Perfect!

Thanks so much for the organizing work, you guys. We really appreciate it.

My family is leaving in 5 days! I have SO much to do before then!

 

[malone92]

sheadley: Yes, my last name is Malone....And the 92 indicates the year we were married.

[sheadley]

The year I graduated high school!! Lol.

 

[malone92]

I second that. Thanks for organizing this group. I can't wait to start the exchange!

[malone92]

Sheadley: My mom always told me that the years would pass by faster the older I got. I do believe she was right. It hardly seems feasible that my husband and I have been married 20 years..
: )

Karen

The year I graduated high school!! Lol.

 

[sheadley]

She was totally correct. It's still unbelievable that I've been out for 20 years

 

[mom2msb]

Karen - My DH and I were married in 92 also. It was a good year! It is amazing how fast those twenty years have flown by.

 

[sheadley]

Okay, so I think the delivery list is final now. . It'll be so much fun. The kids are going to go bonkers.

Question, did everybody get a cute FE from Etsy or have the skills to make their own? I didn't. Ha. I didn't want to fork much money over so I just got a shoe hanging thing and am going to dress it up a bit. Hope it works. Lol.

 

[malone92]

Sheadley: I'm pretty crafty, so I made my own FE.

It's hard to believe that we are 8 days away!

--Karen

 

[sheadley]

Wish I were crafty or could sew.

 

[malone92]

Mom2msb: 92 is certainly a good year!

 

[malone92]

Sheadley: felt and glue can work miracles!

 

[sheadley]

Malone92 - I got your PM, thank you!!!

We went the duct tape FE route. I think it turned out cute, but hopefully it will hold up - I may have to have a reusable shopping bag on had just in case! I just checked the weather for us driving through Utah and it looks like we should have good driving conditions! I just finished up my FE gifts yesterday and I'm starting to think about packing. I need to go find all the kids sandals and swimming suits! I also need to work on getting our door magnets created. Time is running out!
Yes, our last name is Ward - I know it's not the most creative user name I was too excited for my first post to try and be creative!
Thanks for creating the s/s. It has been so helpful in working on my FE gifts. I was also noticing that quite a few of our rooms are on the same level! It will be fun to have so many DIS neighbors on the ship!
We will see you all soon!
