October 11-18, 2008 Eastern Magic-Parrothead Pirates in Paradise! Chapter#4

[WDWCrazzyCunninghams]

Well, I "THINK" I have all the prizes and games sorted....all 30 of them, each with about 3 prize levels. Thankfully, Colton helped me a lot. So far, I have at least 14 hours wrapped up in this. I still have a few signs to make, a few pieces to order, and I think I gave one class 2 games, so I am waiting for the mom to call me back! LOL All I have to say is....I hope the kids have a blast and that they play so much I have no prizes left! LOL I sit and look at all those prizes...enough for about 300 plays per game....and I would just be sick if we had a ton left over. Also, I have a few extra prizes for each level. I think that's good though. then I don't have to beg, borrow and steal from other games. Okay, I think I am done griping for tonight.

I'm now going to start day dreaming about being on Deck 7, laying back in a chair, with a cold drink, listening to Jimmy Buffet gently crooning from PinkyBoy's computer speakers! ......huge sigh.......

Since we had a pretty big lunch, we're just having soup and grilled cheese for dinner. Easy, easy!! pesghetti sounds good too!!

By the way...hi everyone

PHEW! I thought I might be the only one here tonight! I can't be the only one with a life so boring that I am in my PJ's by 8 and spend a Friday night with people I have yet to meet! LOL I mean that in the MOST loving way!

Oh Nancy! I WISH I was done with Carnival! I just ordered a few things from Oriental Trading and I am going to PRAY they get here by Friday. That is the estimated delivery date. I am in the midst of printing off more signs for the hallways. I also forgot to put the ticket cost on the signs, so now I have to print off those and hang those on Friday. I made the homeroom mom's responsible for getting some of the stuff that will be needed...example, for the goldfish toss the local petstore donates fish. We have a coupon and the child goes to her store to collect. The idea is that she donates the fish, the child then buys the bowl, the food, the net, etc. ANYHOW, I made the homeroom mom responsible to call and set that up and get the coupons ready. I told Jennifer, who is helping me, I am NOT going to get all this together! If they want a carnival, THEY can help too! I just hope I have a mom from each class show up on Friday night to help me set up! THAT is the plan!

Yanno, earlier today, while I was in the depths of Carnival Carp, the phone rings and it's a local number, but I don't recognize the name, so I answer it. It's a lady from a nearby town, whom I have never met, who wants to know if I am in need of prayer and that she would love to pray with me. I felt bad as I blew her off. Not 2 mins later, the phone rings again, but I don't answer. Connor calls from the house, "MOM! It's that same lady that wants to pray with you! She left a message and in it said she had never talked to you before. She must of forgot she called!" Then I started thinking, Maybe I should have taken her up on her prayer support! Maybe she knows something I don't!

She must really think you need help!!!! I get tired just reading about your carnival story.

I just got done watching "The Messengers", creepy! I love scary movies, but I can't believe I always fall for all the jumpy parts, jeez, I practically cover my eyes sometimes!!! I'm mega lazy, been sitting in my bed for almost 2 hours now, watching and now surfing.

 

[mmouse37]

I feel like a bum....tough day at my real job (secretary) and have not removed my rear from the reclining chair all night.....

I had such ambition to start emptying out our family room as we are getting our hardwood floors resanded, stained and coated Tuesday and Wednesday.....

Everything in our downstairs has to be moved to the one room that has carpet....next week will be nuts!!

Hope DD is not expecting a welcome home party!! She will be lucky if she can sleep in her own bed the night she comes home!!!

 

[Pinkgurlshubby]

I've been looking at the music list and thinking hmmm I could add to my list and it is becoming quite apparant that I really should delete some songs. I was going to burn some CD's then realised helooooo...they are already on the laptop!

Oh..I also LOVE scary movies.....goes back to my early days watching Creature Feature on Saturday nights as a kid!!!

Did you see The Orphanage? Another creepy one.....very good movie but some people got turned off because it is in Spanish with English subtitles but I got so engrossed in the story I didn't mind the subtitles at all.

Didn't see Messengers yet.....

 

[WDWCrazzyCunninghams]

I think I finished all the signs i need...they still need cardstock and lamenated. Now we are enjoying a bag of Jelly Bellys! THey are SO Flavorful!!!!!

The Orphanage, that was just out wasn't it? I saw a preview, but didnt realize it was in Spanish. Maybe the subtitles would take some of the edge off so I wouldn't jump so high!

Have you seen a movie called "Dead End"? It's a horror/black comedy. I thought it would be just horrible (it's very campy), but I loved it! Very funny, but also quite scary.
