Oct.19, 02 Cruisers AGAIN

[DsnyDudetteTwo]

Ready to wrap & send my Pollyanna. YEAH! I also want to send it out before November 29th (when we leave for WDW).

We all have to buy Bonnie some Bushwacker's so Glenn can see what HAPPENS!!!!!. You all have to ask Joyce what happened when we went out to dinner at the Golf Resort & she had ONE glass of wine.

Hope you all have a great day! Toodles JEANNE

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Wish I could have been there for Joyce and her wine! I remember 3 Dudettes that got, well, a little tipsy shall I say with the bushwackers.

Denine, enjoy your night with the Lauters. Beano's video must be pretty good! Maybe he should market them!

 

[disneydudette1]

Oh my!! Bushwakers in WDW!! Glenn probably won't be lurking today, too busy at work so I am off the hook on the Tee Hee!

It figures Jeanne is finished with her Pollyanna. I haven't even started!!! I need some ideas!

Home visits tomorrow so no trekking into the city in the rain...thank heavens! Just have to drive into no man's land in it. One person lives in an old farmhouse a few counties away. I better bundle up...I don't think she has heat upstairs where the office is...bbrrrrr.

 

[DreamsDoComeTrue]

HI guys!
Sally, thanks again for those Disney scrap-booking stickers. Katie's eye caught those right away and she plans on improving our Cruise scrapbook with them. I'm so glad that you and Barb were both able to make it. Barb, thanks for spending a vacation day on us! Wow, I feel pretty special!

Oh, you WDWers will have so much fun getting together.

Today I took a survey on where the family wants to go next. Disney cruise got beat out by a repeat visit to Hawai'i. Katie did however give me permission to go by myself! (Ben and Cody didn't though, too bad) I had a brief vision of me begging the top bunk from Jeanne and Joyce!

Oh heck, those kids are hungry AGAIN. I was going to ramble a bit. Good to hear from you all.

 

[Denine]

I am not in a good mood today, so I am just going to say hi.

 

[Mickey02'sMom]

Let's get Denine in a good mood....ok, think Mickey, Magic, Christmas while sitting in a chair with a good book while your little angel sleeps.....

I have to paint the front door, do some touch up on the walls. Then I am going to switch dishes....I have snowmen ones I use in the winter and Warren Kimble house ones I use rest of the year.

When Dick gets home I will help him lay the floor. We did good yesterday and are maybe l/2 done. My back hurts today as after Curves yesterday I cleaned the flower bed out under the picture window....got 3 trash cans full, dug up two bushes and then cut the lawn because it was covered with leaves. Last night Crissy and I put a sleigh and 3 reindeer together and put them under the picture window....lots of fun in the dark! I spray painted the poles black because I didn't like seeing them white.....I got the paint that you use on plastic and I had a time getting it off my hands.

Need to go put laundry in and start painting so check back later....

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Poor Denine. Think happy magical thoughts and you will feel much better. Just remember WDW is just around the corner.

Darn that Glenn. Ok here it goes again. A quote from Bonnie a year ago. Tee hee, tee hee, tee hee. Here is the rest of us. Tee hee.

Sally, that house project is sure coming along fast now. Don't get yourself too stiff and sore for the holidays!

Way to go, Cody, Katie and Ben. I hope to cruise with you guys next year! I am in shock though that they chose the cruise over Hawaii because of how sick they got. This time maybe we can fly together and torment the people on the plane.

Uh Bonnie, you better get going on that Secret Santa. If it is me, it is easy what I want. Just book another cruise for me!

 

[Schrolls]

Sandy/Lori - did I misunderstand? I thought Hawaii beat out the cruise

Denine - cheer up. Warm weather and Mickey are just around the corner. Maybe I should send you some of my Calgon!!

Sally - slow down. I get tired just reading all that you are doing and thinking about all that we need to get done before Tuesday.

Had some bad weather come through this morning and a brief tornado warning. Luckily, no damage and I dropped Turner off just before the warning. The kids were all huddled in the hallway and I made it to work before the bad part hit. Very unusual weather for late November and it was 70 degrees when I got up this morning and walked Stanley!!

Bonnie - hope you got back from no man's land OK!

Later!

 

[DreamsDoComeTrue]

Sue, you read it right. Hawaii beat out DCL. Sorry mouse lovers. Sandy is reading thru her rose colored glasses you know. Or maybe the print turned itsty bitsy LOL!

I wouldn't mind going to St. Thomas the same week that you all are passing thru, however. I asked today when fall break is next year, but it won't be scheduled by the district until Feb. I forget, who's cruise will do eastern?

Hey Sandy, you never gave us an update on that dinner that Brian's Dad took Heidi to. Any new scoop? Inquiring minds, you know.

Hope your mood is better Denine. (Love, Love, Love)

Stay on the ground Sue. No visits to Oz now.

OK, Ta ta everyone.

 

[Mickey02'sMom]

Dick put up the lights on the house and I still have garland and lights to do on the fence and a couple wreaths and the outside will be done.

Crissy and I went shopping at the new mall....it was all decorated and looked so pretty. I got one gift and the rest was for me. I got a few elf ornaments for the santa, elf and candy tree.....I am still hoping to get it up.

Dick didn't do much on the floor today as he worked until one and we went out to lunch and to Walmart. Hopefully he will hit it hard and finish this weekend.

It was so warm out today but I guess the change in the weather will start Saturday....they say snow.

 

[wildernessgirl]

Hi everyone! Just stopping in to say hi! Trying to finish decorating and buying for the secret santa gift. ALmost done with that. Had a doctor's appointment today and everything seemed fine. Only gained another pound. Not bad I guess. If only I could stop getting these calf cramps in the middle of the night!!!! The heart beat was strong and doing fine. BUT............... I do have a question for all you nurses out there................. My doctor has ordered me to have a stress test done once a week starting next week until I go into labor. He said it is only precautionary, but I'm a little "unsettled" about it. This baby is really a mover and a groover! PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR VIEWS ON THIS!!!!!!

Denine, I hope your day got better! We will see you guys at 4:30 today! YEAH!!!!!!! IF you are still having a bad day and want to change the date, let us know, otherwise........ we are there!!

The Big Guy is still not 100%, but is doing better. Makenzie has a cold and now I think that I'm starting to get it. NICE!! That is all I need.


Bonnie, I got your starter list. Not bad! Colin is a GREAT name, but it is the Big Guy's middle name. We have a Trevor in the family too so that name is out. We will review any list of names! (that is open to everyone!). I hope work is getting better for you!


Started to get clothes together for Disney!!!!! I figure that if I get most of the clothes packed BEFORE Thanksgiving, I'll be doing great! Just to relax in the Florida sun and not be rushed......... I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well gonna go. Just wanted to stop in and say hi! I'm still here, alive and kicking, but tired. I've got to catch up on my sleep. Will check back in later! HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Ok, ok I was wrong. I thought that Lori's post read that Disney "beat out" Hawaii. I went back to read and I am wrong. Now I am depressed. See what you did to me, Lori? Give me time alone with the family. I will change their minds!

What's up with Disney? My radio station said that they called a news conference about Disney World at a YMCA in Fl for 11:45 today. Not sure if it is their time or ours. The DJ said that they are owned by Disney but don't know what the big announcement will be.

Julie, I forgot about those horrible leg cramps during the night. I got them too when I was pregnant. I remember flying out of bed to get it moving. I feel the pain now just reliving it. Poor Julie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lori, the news that Bryan's dad gave her was that they sold the condo that he was living in in Greeley and Bryan will be moving home on the 24th. We live probably within a mile of them. His dad said that Bryan has his ups and downs and cannot find a job in his field which is Marketing.

Heidi was told on Monday that she did in fact have cancer and that they got it all. The first test said she didn't. Thank God that they did the LEEP!

A bad day ahead. Noah doesn't have Jr. Kindergarten today so I will have both of the kids. I have a craft project in mind so that will help.

 

[Denine]

Thanks guys. I feel better today, the sun is out. I suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder. It is awful. One or 2 cloudy days in a row is all it takes to make me feel awful. I take anti-depressants for it, but I don't want to up my dose. We have looked into light boxes, but haven't had a chance to do anything yet.

I packaged up one gift and Jerry mailed it today. I just packaged up another gift to be mailed tomorrow.

Julie: I can't wait to see you guys! Sorry, I don't know much about stress tests. OB was a long time ago.

I bought a rosemary tree at Walmart last night. It smells so nice! I also bought Christmas cards, since I found out I hardly had any left.

Sandy: WOW! I am glad they got all the cancer. So young!

Lori: The Eastern cruise is 10/16. Us, the Lauters, Barb, sally and her gang are all on this cruise.

I did lose 2 pounds this week. Two more to go to get back to pre-WDW weight.

Sally: I would love to have room for multiple themed trees.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Denine, glad to hear that you are doing better. I kind of had a feeling from last winter that you must suffer from some sort of disorder as the weather would always get you down. Glad that you can take something for it. Boy if I were you, I would certainly look into light boxes. Sure wish you lived closer so that I could do something for you on your down days!

 

[Kristaia]

I laughed until I fell out of my chair:

"I know that we really enjoyed Bryan coming along. Bad part of it was, we do it commando style and he wasn't used to it. "

Upon further review, I now understand you to mean the park. I thought you all slept in the nude, and he couldn't quite get that.



Too funny. Thanks for the laugh.

Denine: Maybe this will put a smile on your face.

Krista

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Oh my gosh, Krista. Never thought of that one! That is too funny. Get your mind out of the gutter!!!

 

[Schrolls]

Sandy - glad Heidi's surgery went well. Hope this is the end of the cancer forever!

Krista - commando style thoughts, huh???

2 1/2 more work days and I am out of here!! Why is it that work always gets crazy when you are about to leave for vacation. There is never a good time to take 2 weeks off from work! Oh well, get me out of here for a day or two and I'll adjust! I'm sure it wil be h@%# when I get back but I'll worry about that driving home in December!

Can you believe I still haven't made a dent in the packing yet? This will be a busy weekend!

Hated to see Rupert get voted out last night but I was a little disappointed in his clsing remarks. I just wish they would get John out soon. He is such a jerk!

TGIF everyone!
Later!

 

[Mickey02]

Good Morning!

I must admit when I saw the "Cammando Style" that was my first thought too! Glad to see I am not the only one with the warped mind

It is sososo cold this morning. I thought it wasn't suppose to get cold until tomorrow. Burrrrrrrrrr.....

We had Thanksgiving dinner last night with a bunch of friends. It was loads of fun. We took Andrew with us. I think he was a little overwhelmed in a house full of 30 people he didn't know. He is still trying to figure us out. His parents are very "stay home all the time" type of people plus they are older then we are and they don't hob-knob with friends. He is not use to being teased which I am a master of. Andrew's Mom told him "I am your Mother not your friend" Then theres me and I am all about the fun

Hope everyone has a wonderful day


Barb

 

[Mickey02'sMom]

It sure looks like snow but the forecast is for 58 and no snow until tomorrow.

The kitchen floor is done........well except for the molding which I hope Dick get down today. Then I can get my kitchen back together in time for Thanksgiving cooking!!!!

Yesterday we ran around all day....watched tv last night so today is a working day. Did get some Christmas shopping done....

 

[Denine]

TGIF

We did not get together with Julie last night. Now she is sick. She called me yesterday and sounded awful. We did go out to eat anyway and got more Christmas shopping done. Only 2 more people to go !!!

I got my Christmas cards done yesterday ! Of course, I don't write anything in the cards. I just sign them. Does anyone know if Darren still has the same address?

I am worried about my cat, Shannon again. Her appetite has been declining all week and yesterday and today she only takes a couple of licks of food and walks away. I am taking her to the vet today.

Sally: What kind of flooring did you put in the kitchen? I don't remember. I was so happy when we did ours about 3 years ago.

Krista: That is too funny. Commando style, I never that of it that way!

Sue: You will get all of your packing done this weekend. Don't panic! Work is always like that!

Barb: It sounds like Andrew was a bit overwhelmed!

just over 1 week till Mickey!!!
