Welcome back Tina!
There is nothing special in the kit that you wouldn't get from the boards or the website. What I have done is book the cruise on-board and then transfer out to AAA (I try to keep control as long as possible). The $50 or $150 (depending on room category) room credit is great.
Not sure if you know this, but I think Scott will need to get a form signed by his children's mother stating that it is o.k. for him to take the kids out of the country. It will need to be notarized. I remember reading that in the on-line check-in on DCL's site. Figure you'd want to work on that now instead of running around a couple of weeks out.
I don't turn 40 until Jan 2008, so I guess I can't be part of your group.
As for turning older, my sister-outlaw turned 40 this year. She went away with her friends, didn't spend it with her family and didn't want a cake or anything. Can't accept getting older.
Suz and I are completely different. We just look at it as another day. You are as young as you make yourself feel. Give up on living and having fun and you will grow old.
We are happy with our lives. Both have good jobs, she has a great spouse (mine is questionable
), and we have a great son. It all depends on what you value or think is important. There is one of those "Successories" signs in DS's Eye Doctor's office. It is titled "Priorities" reads:"A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or what kind of car I drove...but the world may be different becasue I was important in the life of a child."
Prioritize the things in your life. Your children and their upbringing and education should be your main concern, not what you have. If you get bogged down on where you are in life, it will be picked up by them. Always try to be optimistic.
Also, look at your circle of friends. Can you call them in the middle of the night and they would come over? Will they dropped something they had planned if you were in crisis? If not, they aren't "friends". Our circle of friends will be their when and if we need them and us for them.
I wonder if anyone will come back to this thread just to say "hi" to each other.
Have a great trip Cheryl!!
I've been on the phone to my solicitor for most of the day- house move put back yet another 2 weeks - at this rate Ellis will never get into that school
I have got to the point now here I am sick of the whole thing. We thought we had it all sorted yesterday but still waiting on those stupid solicitors
Any update on the paperwork Karen? BTW, refresh my memory, what is the "solicitors" role in the whole home purchase process over there. Are they like Real Estate agents over here (list the home, show the home, etc.)?
We are less than 1,940 post from the next victim.
Update on "milestones", Nancy is 3 from 1,100, Carrie/Scott are only 7 from 500, and Tina is 4 away from 200.
THEY WERE TAKEN LAST YEAR- I dont look like that any more
Yeah, but we've seen pictures since then with you and Ellis and you still don't look like you need to lose weight. You're just trying to make your tablemates look fatter.
SAVE BORAT!!! SAVE BORAT!!!
1. Probably not.
2. Bracelet yes, shirt - not sure (depends on what we plan to do for the picture. I will slip it on for the DIS meet at the Mickey Pool.
3. Yes.
4. I don't wear swimming suits, so why should I start now?
Borat is offensive?
If everything goes o.k., that will help in keeping the 10/20 "L" on track. I guess they are launching tonight.
My thoughts exactly.
....Well, they work out the bill right at the start and its expensive, they apply for a few searches - eg land, water searches etc off the council, they get you to fill out loads of paperwork and then go through loads of paperwork from the other solicitor, basically they dont do a lot but charge you bucket loads of money for it
