October 19th Cruisers again and again...

[Schrolls]

Just a quick post to say good morning. We survived the dinner but I am exhasuted. Now I have to get ready for work. Have a good Monday.

Later!

Good Morning!!

I took Friday off to re-coop and finish my costume. We had to sign
papers for the new car. This is the week The Thorn officially starts. We have one more dress rehersal tonight the performances Tuesday, Thursday 2 on Friday and 3 on Saturday. It is going to be a busy busy week. I spent yesterday cleaning the house, scrubbing all the floors since I will not have time to do much cleaning this week. Got to Curves this morning to work out. Hope to go at least 3 times this week.

Sandy- How scary to hear about Staceys debit card. Sure is getting to be a common thing for people to steal numbers. Really makes me mad !! I have had my purse stolen twice and what a hassle!!

I am really looking forward to this weekend. Fargo's!!!

Denine-Your date night sounds just heavenly..... You sure know how to do things right!

Hope everyone has a terrific week.

Barb

 

[Denine]

Good morning.

Sandy: Yes, we had Anna Marie babysit. As soon as she got here, Kaleigh was excited to see her! It was a perfect night!

Jeanne: I get that way too. I start thinking about everything then, I get too excited to sleep. I am sure that is how I'll be come October!

Heidi: I generally like the Pentax. Sometimes it focuses on something I don't want it to, and the picture comes out fuzzy. It has lots of fancy options which I almost never use. I take a ton of pictures. I wore out my last camera! I do love the zoom feature.

Sue: Glad everything worked out for your dinner.

Lori: I don't really know anything about dogs, but I would check into an allergy. Sounds like you had a good weekend.

Barb: Tomorrow is the BIG night! Break a leg!

We went house hunting yesterday. We really want a bigger house. We only have 3 bedrooms and no basement. We will probably build if we decide to move.

I had my TA request early seating for the October cruise. We had late seating, but it is becoming obvious to us that won't work with Kaleigh. She goes to bed between 7:30 and 8 PM. She was up A LOT later when we booked the cruise a year ago. We hate early dining, but what are you going to do?

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Good morning!\

Denine, I will send some pixie dust for your early seating. I know that can be difficult to get.

Barb, sounds like you are getting things together for your costume. When does the productions start? Looking forward to Fargos. Heidi's boyfriend might not be able to come afterall. He might have to work. Still don't know about Stacey and Richard.

Sally, where are you??? Missing your posts. Bet you are out in the yard and loving it with all this nice weather. We get our lawn aerated this next Monday. It might snow Saturday night till Sunday afternoon. I hope if we get moisture that it will be rain. Kind of difficult to aerate with snow on the ground!!

Susan, I bet you ARE exhausted. As soon as you get home from work you better get that CALGON going. Grab a takeout dinner somewhere and just plan to lay around. Yea, right. I know. Homework. Spelling words usually come home on Mondays along with week assignments. Well, it DID sound good.

Jeanne, 3:25? Wow! I would say that you are excited also. I am usually more excited about the trip than worried about what I have to do before I go. On the last night before, I stay awake and worry, "did I remember to pack?" ......... If you have some time today, give me a call and we will chat. I miss those talks. I will be home around FOUR your time. I know if I put it your time, you won't get confused like before. I can't believe that Dodger dog isn't staying with you as much. I KNOW you love him soooo much.

Lori, sounds like you had a good trip. JoJo must be fitting in just fine. I bet her drainage is an allergy, also. Boy, do I miss having a dog around!

Bonnie, Bonnie, where for art thou?

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Quick post to say hi to everyone. This week is Retro Pay Adjustments for us and it has been pretty crazy this morning. We are all very busy.

This weekend is Fargos!!!! I can't wait, I am so excited!!!! I hope my DBF can make it, but for now he is scheduled to work.

Have a great week.

 

[Schrolls]

Didn't need to order take out - brought a lot of leftovers home from the dinner last night. I doubt I will cook all week. Friday we have a Meatless-Spaghetti fundraiser dinner at Turner's school and then off to Raleigh for another weekend of hockey. This time for the Southeastern Regional Championship Tournament.

I think we are going to go to Hilton Head for 3-4 days right after Easter while Turner is on spring break just to get away and ride bikes and walk on the beach. I'm going to try to call tomorrow and make reservations.

Heidi - I have a Minolta Supreme Freedom Zoom EX. It has served me well but I tend to navigate to Paul's digital more and more.

I wish I could come see the major production of The Thorn. It sounds like a wonderful production. Notice I did not say play. I remember it is much more than that!

Where's Sally and where's Bonnie? And where's Krista and where's Laurie? Where's Darren and where's Diana? I hope we get some of them back!

Enough from me. I'm ready to veg out and watch a little TV before calling it an early night.

Later!

 

[DreamsDoComeTrue]

HI !
(I have nothing of interest to say... but didn't want to be a lurker)

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Good morning. Susan, the Hilton Head trip sounds like just what the Dr. ordered. I need a trip like that too. Hope you got your ressies.

Lori, glad you didn't lurk.

Today is Brother Bear day. I have to go get Heidi's.

Have a nice day.

 

[Denine]

Rainy day here. It is supposed to rain for the next several days. I wish I could send you some Sandy.

We have an appointment at one of the places we are looking at to build. We need more info. The problem with this community is that the planes fly RIGHT over the houses. They are adding extra insulation to sound proof the homes, but there will probably be a lot of dirt. Not that I don't have dirt with the turnpike behind us and the train track right down the street. The other community we are looking at is by the same builder, but in my mind, the city has a stigma for being hickish. It is a growing city and my dad grew up there. I guess I have to get that our of my mind. We would really love to stay in this city, but the new homes that are being built are sooo expensive.

Kaleigh and I did get out for a walk yesterday before it started raining.

I want to get Brother Bear also. Just need to find the time to get up to the mall. We did not see it, but it is the last animated movie to be hand drawn. Disney thinks we won't know the difference.

Sue: HH sounds nice and relaxing!

 

[Mickey02]

Good Morning!!

Denine-Wow only 40 more days until you are in Disney again
Lucky you!!! How exciting that you are building a house!! Does your builder have a website?? I would love to see the model of the home you picked.

Tonight is our first performance. I was so happy to get home last night and get all that heavy makeup off. I can hardly wait until Saturday when I will have it on for 11 hours

Barb

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Is it ever going to end? I am never going to finish with all these pay adjustments without ripping my hair out. I am totally exhausted and I start school tomorrow with working 11 hour days this whole week. I must make it to this weekend...Fargos atleast I have some incentive to make it!!!

YEA Big Brother. Thanks for picking that up for me mom. I loved that movie. Both my boyfriend and I cried in that movie, but it is a great movie!!!

Mom- just a hint about how busy I am.....I haven't had time to clean my cuticles from painting my nails so I am walking around with horrible looking fingers!!!

Uh-oh more OPF's....have to get back to work.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Denine, really, really think about buying the house where the planes flyover. I just don't think that the builder can sound proof that much. I should ask my SIL. People have bought houses by a railroad track in between Lori and my house thinking the same and now they are suing. Just my 2 cents worth.

Barb, enjoy this time of the production. I know that you are busy but really take time to enjoy. Take pictures whenever you can. You never know when you can do it again.

The Disney Store is having a sale. If you buy a new Brother Bear DVD or video or are picking one up on preorder you get Brother Bears stuffed animals at 50% off and then an additional 20% off.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Bonnie, is that tooth acting up again? Hope not!

 

[Schrolls]

Good morning.

I went to dinner last night with the girls. One was announcing she is pregnant. They have been trying for years and seeing specialists. I am so happy for them.

Hope everyone has a great hump day!
Later!

 

[Mickey02]

Good Morning!!

Last night performance was really good. There was about 3,000 people that saw it. By the time this is through over 40,000 people will have seen it. It takes me about 30 minutes to get the makeup off. Ick!

Tonight is the one night this week we have off. I invited Missy and Mike (Yea he is back safe from Iraq!!) to dinner. Maybe we will watch a movie and rest!!

Sandy-My neice Crissy and Missy and Mike will probably be joining us at Fargo's. Hope that is ok. I am really looking forward to Sunday!

The board is pretty quiet. Where are you Bonnie??


Barb

 

[Denine]

Barb: Glad the performance went well! We are still deciding on of we should move. Nothing is definite yet.

Sandy: We went to the meeting last night. The one with the planes. You hardly even noticed them, only if you were paying attention. If we built here, we would be in a different section and the planes wouldn't be directly over head like with the model. Now Jerry is being wishy-washy about what we can afford, so we may be staying here until the end of time.

It is rainy and foggy and cold. I think the rain is finally supposed to let up for the weekend.

I was supposed to have a meeting at work today, but it was canceled. I haven't been to one in a long time because it is hard with Kaleigh.

Nothing else going on.

 

[DreamsDoComeTrue]

Hi guys. Happy Hump Day. Denine, good luck with the house choices. I like to keep windows open for nice fresh air, so soundproofing wouldn't do much for me.

Barb, I want to see your show! Are you getting a video or DVD of it? Can we all pass it around?

Susan, great news for your girlfriend!

Sandy, we need to get together, I need some counter space back (Mickey wants to go to YOUR house).

Good to hear from all you diehard posters. Hi to the lurkers, too!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Good morning everyone. Another sunny day ahead. 77 I believe. Having lunch with my mom today.

Denine, Ted and I bought our STARTER home 28 years ago and are still in our STARTER home. He just doesn't believe in moving on up. Sometimes it makes me sad and embarrassed and other days I think it is soooo wise. We do have 3 bedrooms upstairs and one down so it isn't like we lack in space. I would love to have a master bedroom suite, laundry room upstairs (it is a ranch style), and a kitchen/family room combo. Only in MY dreams!! I married the wrong guy for that but I wouldn't trade him for the world. Good luck with your decisions.

Lori, I can do lunch any M, W or F. You name it. Mickey needs to come home!

Barb, I think we need name tags now. You all know each other but we won't know anyone. Of course it is ok for Chrissy, Missy and Mike to join us. I think Lori still needs to join us.

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

I second Lori and her family coming to Fargos!!!!

Its almost over. We have managed to complete all of the actions, over 1,200 with only a total of 11 mistakes. The National Business Center (NBC) is tracking all of the mistakes and how many actions went through and we have had the fewest mistakes and we are all done. The rest of the regions haven't finished yet!!! My boss was so proud of us that she is giving all of us this Friday off and throwing us a pizza party tomorrow for lunch!!!! I am so glad it is over and so is my body, especially my fingers!!! My poor hands have paper cuts all over them. Whats left is distributing all this paperwork to the employees and supervisors. Guess I better start that!!!

Mom - Thank you for my treat!!!!

 

[Schrolls]

Sandy - we had a lot of rain today.. I wish I could share it with you.

Lori - I can't leave my windows open in this part of the country because of my allergies. The tree pollen is so high right now and all of our cars ahve a yello-green film on them from the pine pollen. The rain today should wash some of it off and help my allergies too (at least for a day).

Heidi - glad the hard part is over and you get a reward on Thursday and Friday!

Wish I could join you guys at Fargos.

Barb - Ditto what Lori said about the production. I would love the see a recording of it.

Sandy/Denine - we are still in our starter home too after 15 years. We keep saying someday but so far we are still here.

Everyone have a great day. I'll chat again tomorrow.

Love ya!
Later!
