Roll Call. Oct.19,02 Cruisers Continued...

[disneydudette1]

As much as I LOVE children... how many are there all told????
I volunteered for Kaleigh because she will be so young. All the others would much rather spend the evening in the clubs I'm sure rather than with "Aunt Dudette 1"

Sandy and Ted-I have planned your cruises since you were such good tour guides. 2003 Alaska, 2004 Reunion cruise. What would the Dudette's do without your guidance????

Darren. I will stay up tonight just to say hi to you and see that you do check back in with us.

Where's SUE???? Last we heard she was sick. I'm starting to worry now. First Krista then Lori now SUe. - I see you posted as I was typing this so I hope all is well

Laurie the lurker-you have now lost your reputation as a lurker! Daily posts I am soooo proud

Julie if I was as good as Jeanne I could give you her birthday but alas...

 

[Schrolls]

Bonnie - Turner would want to stay in the lab til 1:00am closing. But he can stay the rest of the night with you and you can guard the door and worry about his adventures!!!

 

[disneydudette1]

Oh NO!!! I need my beauty sleep at my age!

 

[DreamsDoComeTrue]

Julie, everything sounds great. Thanks again for all of your effort. Just in case everyone starts choosing the same number or something, just put them in a hat and let the Big Guy pull them out for us. Oh, I just had a really mean thought ... I don't know how my mind can even be so bad! I, only for a heartbeat mind you, thought of really driving Julie off the edge by emailing everyone else to pick just one number. LOL Bad Lori, Bad Lori. OK, I've fessed up. Thanks for getting this all together Julie REALLY!

Now I'm making plans for reserving a motorhome and doing a week at Mesa Verde and some other interesting places in Colorado. Who's comin' with? I'm thinking the last week in May, there's a cool Indian event going on then.Mesa Verde- Family vacations

Work hard, Play hard. That's MY motto!
See ya'll. ~Lori

 

[disneydudette1]

Lori I like your idea although now that you have confessed we can't do it. The trick is to be devious and not confess before hand! It might be a good idea to have one of the kids pick the names out of a hat that way it will stop confussion before it starts.

CO 19'ers You are soooo lucky to live in such a beautiful state! I checked out that web sight Lori. It looks soooo inviting! Of course in NJ we do have the ocean and some parts are still pretty without boardwalks. Nothing can compare to Castaway Cay though. I'm going to run away from home to CC!

 

[Denine]

I haven't tried to open the newest lists yet. I had a ton of e-mail lists, hopefully one will work. I have works and the old one still wouldn't open.
Bonnie: Thanks for volunteering to babysit!
We hope to cruise again next October or September and then go to WDW for Christmas decorations in December. We like to cruise every year if possible.
Kaleigh seems to be better on her new formula today!

 

[DreamsDoComeTrue]

No jokes, but Katie sends you all this...Turkey greetings!

 

[Olando]

Great job Julie!!!! We are going to have to keep our eyes on that Lori though ......... She is so full of ideas!!

 

[Schrolls]

Katie - I loved the Turkey greetings!!! I have one more thing to be thankful for: a cute turkey to brighten my day!

Heading to bed!! Will try to log in tomorrow morning but we do need to leave early in the morning. Goodnight all!

 

[disneydudette1]

Great turkey Katie! I loved it.

Laurie-twice in one day!!!!!! WOW!

 

[wildernessgirl]

That would be fine if everyone picked one number......it would, just out of luck .......it would me MINE!!!!!!!!!! LOL

 

[disneydudette1]

No fair Julie!!! LOL!

I have tried to stay up to see if Darren checks in but I got a flu shot today and feel achey despite ibuprophen. I think I will just curl up under the covers.
It doesn't help that I finally heard from my one and only son for the first time in about 3 weeks and we have words... I am very proud of him but I guess I expect more from him i.e. a phone call more often.

I hope Garry has a good night at work...remember if I get all the kids he has to help since he volunteered me! And then we can walk by with all of them and stand at the window of Palo's and drool!!!!

 

[DisneylandDarren]

Hi All, just got back from work. It was all fun fun fun today, I didn't have to go in in my usual shirt and tie, I wore a lovely white charity t-shirt and hat as we've been raising money for Ronald McDonald Childrens Homes. £1 from ever meal sold today went to charity!

Well how is everyone...

 

[disneydudette1]

I made it! I stayed awake till Darren got back on. Glad to hear your computer is working again Darren. How is England fairing? Are you all getting ready for Christmas?
ANyone hear Christmas carols on the radio yet? I did all the way home from the train today. Before Thanksgiving!!
It sounded good.

 

[DisneylandDarren]

Yes I can't believe how close Christmas is now, 5 weeks!!!

All the shops over here are in full christmas mode (and I have to say have been like it for a little while now). I went into my local shopping center recently to find it seriously done up with lights, trees and decorations and even Santa is in residence.

I'm now just waiting for the Christmas CD to arrive at McDonalds, hopefully it won't be too soon as I can get very annoying listening to the same christmas music over and over again!

 

[wildernessgirl]

I'm here too! I was excited to see Darren on! I'm glad you had a great day at work!

Bonnie, I hope you fell better tomorrow. I did a lot after Garry went to work, I cut the front and back grass and clean the front gutters out and cleaned the garage! My mom came over to watch the kid outside for me. It was such a nice day I wanted to surprise Garry. Now, if only I could get the inside clean................

Have pleasant dreams Bonnie! And everyone else. I'll be on later I'm sure!

 

[disneydudette1]

How well I remember the same music over and over and over....
I worked in a Denny's in college and HATED it by the time Christmas came... The Disney Store wasn't too bad because they would have other songs besides Christmas on the video.

Speaking of video...My good firend's daughter was in the Disney Youth Orchestra for a couple years in a row. I was working in the store and there on the big screen was a closeup of Ashley!! It ran about 6 weeks and when she would stop in the store I would embaress the heck out of her! She was our celebrity.

Well that's it. I stayed up to say good night to Darren! Off to la la land.

Good night all.

 

[DisneylandDarren]

Good night Bonnie,

Hi Julie,

 

[wildernessgirl]

If it is alright with everyone, I will do the number thing and I will just let you know who you have. Instead of US getting ALL the gifts (picking the number thing....lol) We decided to share the joy!

I will try to get everything done by Friday and sent out. If not by them, by monday at the latest.

 

[wildernessgirl]

Hi Darren! Do you have all your Christmas shopping done? I have started, I'm about half way done.
