Ok, just checked, and Artman you're a lucky pup, because you'll be there starting on Dec. 22, the code expiers on the 23rd, so they gave it to you for your full stay. We aren't checking in until Dec. 25th, so no deal for us. But I'm very happy for you!

We are having Christmas w/my family.. Christmas w/the skids will be the weekend before. They live an hour and a half away, and I dont want to start packing AFTER they leave.

Soooo.. probably go over to my mom's about noon.. have great food, open presents (although none between Brian and I.. we are doing Cruise related stuff.. as the Cruise IS our present to each other) and eating a ton.. YUM!!! no WW that day.. then getting a good night's sleep.. YEAH RIGHT!!! I too will be too excited to sleep. We leave on the 26th. although, I wont have specifics until about a month before, as we booked the travel through DCL.

Its getting closer.. I can feel it!!!!

Not sure yet - we usually have Christmas lunch at my mom's - unless I can talk her into going out since it is just the 3 of us and then rest of day will be spent finishing up all those odds and ends - since we will be flying out crack of dawn 12/26

Found some material to make a fish extender - now need to figure out how to make it - rofl

ran errands - picked up lawn mower, Kara got more warts cut/lasered off of her foot once again - and then dropped off at friends for some last of the summer video game playing - then have swim team swim party later tonight -

marching band practice all day tomorrow and yard work Sun

You'll just have to go earlier

We will be at the Yachtsman's Steakhouse for dinner at 5:55 (got to love those ADR times, oh sorry we don't have anything at 6:00 would 5:55 be okay?)

Artie, I went to a vocational high school and my shop for 3 years was cabinetmaking. I use my woodworking knowledge more now in my home and in helping others with kitchen advice. right Aisling I am more of a furniture maker/refinisher in my woodworking tho. I've built small stuff like shelves up to a bench. somebody in my family has a kitchen cabinet I had to make for my shop final.

I even tried out a shop like yours when I got out of school but found it to be a bit much for me. I can tell you I had some pretty good muscles by the time I got let go

Gotta love a chick that's handy.
We do everything at our house ourselves, my Dad and I built our home from the ground up it took three years, nights and weekends from clearing the lot to move in. Five years ago Claudia and I bought a 18 x 36 inground pool kit, we hired a guy with an excavator for a day to rough out the hole and we did everything else. We were swimming in it a month after we started, again just nights and weekends. You should see Claudia push a wheelbarrow, she works like a grand canyon pack mule.

Here is a pic of our pool project, we are very proud of it.

Hopefully I can convince Claudia to be in charge of our fish extender. Otherwise I may have to get our driver to swing by the Winn Dixie on the way to the port so I can get a plastic shopping bag and a roll of duct tape.

and a good friend of mine told me to take it to San Francisco for the 3-Day Walk...that it could save my feet.... she's done the "WALK" 3 times so she should know...but i thought that's what all this weekly training was for....

As any redneck will tell you, you need only two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and it shouldn't, use the duct tape.

What a week to be laid up in front of the tv. The Olympics have been great, Phelps last night in the 100m butterfly by 1/100 and Bolt today in the 100 run, the fastest men e ver.

YES - the women's all around gymnastics, the mens team gymnastics finals and the swimming really have been great. It's actually nice to catch most of this stuff live.
