October 11-18, 2008 Eastern Magic Parrothead Pirates in Paradise-chapter 6

[elgerber]

I know I still get messed up on it. But I am getting better at it too.. I got only 13 ok's tonight. So I'm getting better...>!!!!!!!! What balancing ones do you like?????!!!!!!!!!!!!

So far the balance ball one, I got the advanced unlocked but can't get all the way through it. I totally suck at skiing!!! I get a ton of OK's in the stepper with the kicking, but it's fun!

Evening everyone!
I too, like the hula hoops! I like the step, but need to get better at it. I haven't done it a whole lot! I like the balancing games, especially the table tilt. I did pretty good on the downhill skiing. Not so good on the ski jumping. I have not tried the running.

Got the center pieces done for the graduation. Now I need to cover my pop-up shelter with tableskirting that will make it look like a tiki hut! tomorrow evening we are all meeting at the school to put the kids gifts togther....tshirts, yearbook, certificate of graduation all in a drawstring bag with the Middle School logo on it!

Candy, love the photos of the Magic! What a great day you had!

Hi Richard! You can stop lurking now! (Now, if I could only get MY DH to quit lurking!!!)

It was 83 with 60% humidity today. It felt like an August day instead of May! There are storms all around us, but nothing has hit here....yet.

oh, and the spring on our garage door has sprung....again. this will be the 3rd or 4th spring we've had to replace in the 9 years we've been here! I have always had the same guy to do it, this time I am going to call someone else....just to see if that makes a difference, yanno??

I'd be interested in seeing what there is. Can't guarantee I'd want anything, but if you are making a list, I'd look.

I'll get some pics together...I had a few, but can't find them.

Check this out. All the DVCer's here.

I'm just sitting here watching tv and playing on the computer (DIS of course) when the phone rings. It's our DVC rep just calling to say hello, and see how were doing. He wanted to see if he could help us in making any reservations or answer any questions regarding future holidays.
How cool is that! That is the Disney difference That totally made my night. We chatted for a while and he gonna come visit us in August when were there.

That is different! Mine has never called me.

Sounds like it's time to call someone else, good luck, hope it gets fixed for longer this time!!
I wish it would feel like summer here.
Will you post pics of your "tiki hut" when you're done? Sounds cool!

Of course I'll take photos! I plan on taking LOTS of photos on Thursday!!

I know, and not any mention of any kind of sales pitch or anything. Just like having a friend call the house. Put me in a great mood

I found this on the thread about the personal posts... I think it is a great analogy and thought I would post it here along with my response:

That is the perfect analogy.
We have a rather chatty bunch and it is difficult for the regulars to keep up with sometimes. It was awkward for me to jump in a thread that had been running a while. Because of that, myself along with 4 or 5 others on our thread really try hard to make new posters welcome and invite them to join our list for e-mailings, and offer them a link to our website. That is the best we can do. I also like Mary's suggestion of putting ***CRUISE QUESTION*** in the post as an attention getter. Now that we are aware this is a problem, I for one will try even harder to make sure no "newbies" get lost in the shuffle.

Here is a post I put on our thread after this one got started:

Hey Allen!!!!! I'm with you too on this.....the "cruise question" thing is a great idea and we will notice it right away!!!
