Roll Call. Oct.19,02

[Mickey02'sMom]

Jerry, we must have posted at the same time as I didn't see yours until this morning. I am so sorry to hear about Kaleigh....of course I will be praying for her and both of you too. Keep us posted.

 

[Mickey02'sMom]

Bonnie-I wish I could say the same....I am still waiting on pictures from Patti and Barb. I wish I had known she was making an album I would have made something for her too.

Have you started your album yet?

Today is football and of course that means pizza!!

I mailed a postcard to Dick from Castaway and he just got it Friday. Good thing I didn't tell him anything important.

Has anyone gone on the 3 day cruise? It doesn't sound like you are on the ship very long as we dock both days....I thought 7 days was just about right....can't imagine only being on for only 3.

HI mom-I only got the first page done. I have made some pictures into ovals in preparation but my son has my trimmer and I am lost without it.
I was lucky enough to one packet of the Creative Memories Disney pack before they sold out. Now I have to decide what pages to use it on. I'll be getting together with my scraping buddy sooometime in the next 2 weeks since she and her husband just got back from WDW.

 

[Mickey02'sMom]

Bonnie I have the CM Disney stickers....wish I had thought to bring you a set. They now have Pooh stickers besides Mickey. Hopefully they will get some different ones. Have you seen the large Mickey, Tigger, Pooh, etc stickers at a scrapbook store? They have borders that match them...darling!!

 

[disneydudette1]

I went wild this summer at a scrap store with the stickers. I got the big Mickey ones with the black, red and gold borders, beach Mickey, ones with Daisy and Minnie-Just the girls etc.
I also have the CM cruise stickers which are the most appropriate that I've seen. I was just looking at them again-the desserts for the Dessert Buffet pictures, the feather boa's for formal night etc.
I was going to try to do some today but too much necessary stuff that needs to be done.
I am also trying to ration some of my Mickey ones for our Dec trip to WDW.

Jerry and Denine, I'm SO sorry to hear about your scare with Kaleigh, that is the worst. Good luck on a quick turn around, and some usefull test results. I read your note to the family and everyone has you in their prayers.

Julie, those pictures didn't crash my computer, but I might need to go out and buy more memory! Great pics. I have an idea for us to use when sending pictures. Include a description of the shot, so that if we have a similar view, we can skip that particular download. I am so glad to have seen the ones of Darrens show. I'm SO SO bummed that we didn't make it.

Darren, I'm so sorry we didn't make it. We fully intended to go, in fact Ben was thinking of doing another song on his own but that bug hit us hard just after the earlier show ended. I wanted to go watch and now from the pictures I see that you had a great turnout. I'm glad so many others came. (We were trying to get packed and not doing very good at it.) It looks like you earned your "I'm a winner" medal with style.

Hugs to you all, Lori

Denine & Jerry: Just went on the boards & tried to pick up where I left off & I could not believe what I was reading. I am so sorry to hear that Kaleigh is sick & in the hospital. She will be in my prayers. When you have children it is always something!

I don't want to brag but my Cruise Album is finished. I do a modified version of scrapbooking. I am too poor to buy all the scrapbooking items so I take everything I can that is free! I am really proud of it & can't wait to show it off to the other Dudettes.

The Dudettes are getting very excited! We leave for WDW on December 7th & are starting to talk about what we are going to do & what days to do it.

The Eagles are on but losing. GO EAGLES

Sandy: I got the picture & love them. I did not have many pictures of Dawn's Beach. You now have proof you parasailed!

Toodles

Denine and Jerry, we were so sorry to read about Kaleigh. Please know that she is in our thoughts and prayers. Sounds like she is in a good hospital. I do daycare for my dental hygenist and her son had acid reflux. It was a difficult time for a few months but he did outgrow it. He is 4 now and doing just fine.

Darren, I owe you an apology, also. We had full intentions on going to Ben's talent show and yours but the bug hit me real hard that night, too. We were really looking forward to it. Lori, give Ben our apologies, also.

Lori, how is Katie doing? Give the family a hug from us. I am so looking forward to lunch. We have so much to talk about. I am still availabe M,W&F.

Dudettes, take me with you! Couldn't enjoy WDW after the cruise because of sea legs and my cold. I am certainly envious of you three!

Not only did we buy flowers for the wedding, we were able to put together the bouquets. They turned out so beautiful. Next weekend is reserved for centerpieces. Experimented with one and it, too, turned out lovely.

 

[Boardwalk Garry]

Denine just called a short while ago and talked to Julie. Kaleigh is doing better, but still is on oxygen. The doctor ruled out acid reflux and they are deciding what other tests they want to perform.

Just wanted to give everyone a quick update. I'm sure Julie will be on later with more info.

 

[disneydudette1]

Thank you for the Kaleigh update Garry. Do they think it is related to her recent illness? Keep us posted please.

Had a nice dinner with friends this evening. Last minute thing.

Sandy & Ted - I wish you were going with us also. It feels good to have someone else decide what we will do and were we will go! Heck, anyone who can tolerate the Dudettes in an enclosed space like a ship can tolerate us anywhere.
I hope we get an evening at Jellyrolls this time. Especially since we won't have to ride the bus with Jeanne afterwards (another cheap date story).

Have a good evening all. I will check in in the morning prior to mom's surgery.

 

[wildernessgirl]

Hi all! Just got back from my parents house. We celebrated my birthday over there. I just wish I felt a little better, my sinus infection is still killing me. Hopefully next year we will all feel better for that birthday.

Sorry about the pictures! I told you that I was new at this! I think I figure out how to post pictures the "right" way with the help of Garry. So I will send out some more pictures hopefully tomorrow. Anyone who still has pictures, we would love to have them! (even if its something like a sunset or other people! We don't care).

Darren, If you would like some pictures of the cruise and of you at the talent show please private message me and I will make sure I get them to you! All I need is your e-mail address!

I spoke with Denine and she said since she doesn't have a clure when she will be able to post, she will call me and I will keep you all informed. Kaleigh is doing better but they still are not sure what is exactly wrong. She said that she took Kaleigh for a walk yesterday and about 10 minutes back from the walk Kaleigh was pale, cool, and clamy with her finger tips turning blue and her breathing was shallow and labored. Also, her eyes had rolled back and she was not very responsive. Once the rescue squad got her on oxygen Kaleigh began to come around. They took her to Southwest hospital and they sent them to Rainbows since Rainbows had the facilities to do the testing that needed to be done. So, another trip by the squad to Rainbows. There the attending physician and a resident checked her out and spoke to the head or chief attending physician by phone and they thought it was the acid reflux but to be sure they would run a test on monday since they do not run tests on the weekend. The "head or chief" physician would be in today.
SO, he was in today and checked her out and he didn't think it was the acid reflux but he wasn't sure what she had and he was going to look over her charts and her symptoms and he would let them know monday what kind of tests would be run. Denine said that they took her off of all medications and has a IV in her hand for fluids and is still on oxygen. Denine said that if you didn't see her Saturday and saw her now you would think that there was nothing wrong with her. She slept for 6 hours last night. Denine seems to be doing very well under the circumstances and so is Jerry. She said the soicial worker was going to get in touch with the birth parents to see if there was any history of siezures because they were wondering if Kaleigh might have had one. So as they say, no news is good news! Denine seemed to be in good spirits and Jerry is being a real trooper! I will keep you posted on any updates. They are all in our hearts and prayers!

 

[wildernessgirl]

Hey dudettes- can we go too on your trip? I'd love to go to jellyrolls with you! Hey Bonnie, does your marathon flight down stop in Cleveland? I could stow away in your luggage! LOL

 

[DreamsDoComeTrue]

Bonnie, prayers and pixie dust for your Mom tomorrow. Hope it goes nice and smooth. Let us know.
Thanks for the update Julie.
I might start getting some pictures together for sharing tomorrow. We have a nice shot of the Mickey flag flying at the front of the ship and approaching Castaway Cay in the distance on our video camera. I'll try and get a good frame capture of that for you all.
Later Gators, Lori

 

[wildernessgirl]

Bonnie you and your mom are in our thoughts and prayers! I'm sure allwill go well tomorrow. Please let us know how everything goes!

 

[disneydudette1]

Happy Birthday Julie!!!!!!

Quick note before I have to leave.

Where are you Sue? I miss my morning coffe buddy!

Julie-I stop in Pittsburgh-how close is that to Cleveland? I am thinking of trying to pack everything in a carryon because I am afraid I will get to Orlando but my luggage will get lost somewhere along the way. Afraid you wouldn't fit.

Prayers to Kaleigh!!!!!!! Pixie dust ( I think the stores are running low with oll the pixie dust we've used lately!)

 

[Schrolls]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Julie.

I didn't realize our birthdays were so close together. I am off work today. They say it is because of Veteran's Day but I know they really want everyone to have a day off to celebrate my birthday! LOL

Bonnie - Hope all goes well with your Mom today. I wasn't on early this morning because we had such bad weather coming through real early, the same storms you all are seeing in the news this morning.

I do have pictures ready to send to you all from our friend who came to see us leave. You should be getting an email message from me shortly to go see them at webshots (if I have your email address).

 

[Mickey02]

Good Morning Everyone!

Denine and Jerry my prayers are with you for Keligh. My internet at home is not working so I just read your post today.

Hey Mom I have the Mustang!! Patty's car is a TransAM

Dudettes you are soooo lucky to be going back to Disney. Wish we were all having a reunion there.

My husband is lucky enough to be off again today. There are no Holidays at Progressive so here I sit!

 

[DreamsDoComeTrue]

Bonnie, how's your Mom!!!??? Inquiring minds want to know? I almost referred to her as "Mom" but alas, Sally holds that esteemed position already.

Julie, thanks for the greeting!

Susan, wow those pictures had me in a "We're leaving for a cruise and youuu're nottt" frame of mind! That's awful of me, huh. I printed out one for my album. (I say that like there will one day BE an album LOL) Doesn't anyone else go for that shoe box until I have the time for an album approach? Am I the only one??? I DO label the envelopes!

Sandy, do you need help with the wedding preps? I LOVE doing stuff like that.

I'm back to SLAVING away at my pictures. Have a good week all.
Hugs big time, ~Lori

 

[Schrolls]

Lori - "We're leaving for a cruise and youuu're nottt" - my feelings exactly. I was telling Paul's friends on the cell phone when we were leaving that day that I knew he was jealous. He was leaving the next day on Royal Caribbean for only a 4 day. Don't let the few online pictures fool you. I do not have a personal album put together either. I am the number 1 slacker when it comes to finalizing the photos. So, you label the shoe boxes? I don't even get them all into shoe boxes. I have them in drawers, boxes, etc. I'm usually very late getting film developed. Hopefully, the digital camera can help solve that problem. Glad you liked the sail away pictures.

I wish I had someone to do nice scrapbooks for me. I think that would be great to have but I have no time to do it. What little spare time I do have these days is spent here with you guys! I do miss you all so much!

I did get duplicates of all the pictures we took onn this trip. If anyone would like some of them, send me you sail mail address and I will put a package together for you. They're not all good but they're not all bad either.

Paul's sister has booked to go with us next year on the 11/29/03 cruise. They got the room next to us. Darren, hopefully, you'll be a CM by then. Let me know how the interview goes. Also, if you'll send me your email address I have a few pictures you may want.

Kaleigh - get well soon!! My prayers to you and your Mom and Dad. You all need some quiet time to settle in to a routine.

Talk to you all later!

 

[Mickey02's Sister]

Good morning! Whew, what a weekend.....1050 miles in about 27 hours and we're still getting our new mama daughter moved. I needed to come back to work to get some rest!

Denine and Jerry, I'm so sorry that Kaleigh is having problems and she (and you) is getting a lot of prayers from here. Hopefully, they'll find out what the problem is so you can fix it and go on.

Barb, I'm glad you set Mom straight on the car situation.......I can't believe we don't have her trained better than that!

Happy Birthday to Julie and Susan!

Bonnie, praying that your Mom gets through her surgery with flying colors.
