HAPPY SUPER BOWL SUNDAY EVERYONE !!
I am not a big football fan but I will watch for the commercials and to root for the underdog, since I dont have a favorite team. :confused3


We have had a fun start to our day today. They said our low was going to be 35 last night but we hit 25, so we woke up to frozen water pipes:sad2:

Since we are in an RV our door is metal. So guess what else was frozen, yep the door was frozen shut:scared: Greg was going to take our dogs out to relieve themselves this morning and the door wouldnt open.

So as the dogs pranced and whimpered around the RV I grabbed my blow dryer and we went to work on the door. After a few minutes Greg was able to loosen the ice enough he could bang hard enough to open it, just in time for the dogs to make it outside!!!

On the bright side, I don't have to do the dishes this morning.:lmao:


Have a great day everyone,

Kathy

Sorry about your pipes! Glad that the doggies made it out in time.
 
You all are so amazing! I feel like I barely left my computer and I already have a million welcomes. What an awesome experience!

Anyway, thanks to Diznyfan68, Bareacuda, Scoutsmom99, got2travel, TheDisneyGirl02, MagicMe, Mom x4,Grandma x4, orlandothebeagle, BuckeyeGal, MrsMork, TotallyAngelic, ibouncetoo, DisneyCruisin, Dolphingirl47, and Todd! You all made me feel so welcome! Now, I'm even more excited to be on this cruise!

I am excited to see Todd and got2travel in March. I haven't made my reservations for hotels, but I swear I will be there. I just have to convince my DBF he can miss a day of work or two. He does sound and lights at the Napa Valley Opera House so he works nights and weekends especially.

Got2travel, where do you live? Hilltop area? I don't go there often, but there is a super amazing chinese buffet at the mall that I have to visit every once in a while! I'm a glutton for Chinese!

TheDisneyGirl02, I'm very sorry about your eagles. I have a soft spot for them (despite kicking the niners behinds frequently). It's not that I like them, it's just that I like watching Mcnabb and all the rest.

Kathy and Greg, I'm glad you are Cardinals fans, that's who my house (with the exception of my east coast born mom) are rooting for. Gotta go with the NFC west PRIDE! It is my first TA cruise too! I'm looking forward to all those great sea days!

TotallyAngelic, I know you are used to the too many Sarah's issue! In my cheer squad there were four sarahs! If it makes it easier, you can call me Sarah Lavender or, as they called me when I lived in England, American Sarah. Or new sarah. But that just doesn't have the same ring to it, lol. the Sarah that orlandothebeagle was referring to lives in the UK, right?

DisneyCruisin, that freezing June cruise was my first cruise experience ever, and I had to be assured that not all summertime cruises are that cold! I didn't pack a single sweatshirt or even a long sleeve tee. My family got really possessive about their extra blankets and towels. It was very interesting!

And, lastly, thanks to all of those who gave me the games hints! That is helping a lot!

Whew, long post, sorry!
 

Len went to buy a new telly last year, I thought with our car the size would be self limiting so I did not worry about the size he would come back with.

WRONG, he put the roof down and tied it is the back :scared:
He thought that was clever, I thought it was ridik,Shaunie thought he telly was cool?:crowded: Silly me.
 
Just for my 10 post status;

GO CARDINALS!

well, really, it doesn't matter to me much, my team didn't make it very far. I'm just happy to see any NFC West team in the Superbowl.

I made team cupcakes though! Yum!
 
American Sarah, you are correct, the other Sarah and myself and a few others are from the uk!, check out the map, although I seem to move about,lol

I was looking at the google map of san fran and it is so cool you can walk about and get 3d views, Ive never noticed that before.

I feel all left out here in scotland, I have had lots of e-mails from my usa friends and there plans for tonight.

Everybody have a great time.I seriously wish I was anywhere in the states!
I would be drinking bud select and ordering pizza.
 
Ok so for all for all of you that are on Facebook.....

The DIS now has an official Facebook page....

http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/group.php?gid=26992052247

I also set up one for our cruise.....

http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/group.php?gid=70039214008

So if anyone is also on facebook join these 2 groups!

Thanks, Stephanie! I just joined our cruise Facebook page today. :thumbsup2

I hope you don't mind if I chime in. I watched the Duggar's Wedding episode this week, and I also found a few times I literally laughed out loud. It was pretty funny! The engagement episode was also entertaining, but not near as much as the wedding episode!

I am happy to be back at work, yet I still tire easily. We're having some snow showers today, but nothing bad. Luckily when the sun came out yesterday, most of the ice dried up.

I enjoyed the Duggar wedding episode. I loved when the siblings reinacted the engagement!

Did you guys see the most recent episode where Jim and Michelle went to San Francisco and they wandered into a "head shop". :scared: Jim commented on the "interesting glassware" that were actually pipes (for pot-smoking, I'd assume).

Anyway, I enjoy the show and I don't have anything against their lifestyle! I just stay away from the threads on the Community Board. LOL

Yikes you folks out east got just slammed. Thankfully here in MN we got nothing in that line other than cold weather which I can live with instead of the snow and ice.


I'm starving right now and that all sounds so tasty to me!

sea spray, I hope works ok, hope everybody stays cozy, We are meant to get snow in a few days but they have said that a lot and it has never happens, take care, have a gd weekend, Lynne x

It warmed up to 40 degrees today and a lot of the ice and snow is melting, but then I read that we're supposed to get more snow this week!! :faint: :cold: Even with the higher temp and the sun out today, there is still a LOT of snow on the ground. BLAH!

I hope the groundhog DOESN'T see his shadow tomorrow! LOL

Nice:thumbsup2 Don't forget to hit up a shrimp truck and say hi to the sea turtles for me

Beautiful picture!! :sunny:

Hey everybody,

I'm definitely new here, but I would love to get involved with the gang before me and my family go on this cruise.

My mom, grandma, brother, sister, and I went on the June 1st 2008 Mexican Riviera Cruise and had a fabulous time. Our only regret was that we didn't make the time to meet our fellow cruisers on this board before sailing!

So, just saying hi, and hoping to get organized enough to meet or at least chat with a few of you all before we get on board. (and considering the amount of time I have until the cruise, I really have no excuse to fail in this!)

Thanks!

:welcome: aboard!! :boat:

So I was getting Disney withdrawls and couldn't wait until March. Just decided to head down to DL for Valentine's weekend. DS and I both have that Monday off, we we're going down for the weekend. Got a cheap room off Priceline and the APs cover parking so we're all set.

Yeah we bought more DVC yesterday

We couldnt resist , we have been waiting to buy at the Grand Californian since before they even announced it "officially" I think Kurt from DVC hinted to us when we were on the WB TA in 07 so we had are SSR now we have the Grand Californian ... So one of the nice incentives was Developer Points but we have to use them by Oct 3rd of 09 so we decided that since Monica was going to go for Valentines weekend we would go to and use half of our developer points now ..lol (Free Trip)

Anyway We will be at Disneyland on February 13th thru the 16th if you want to come on by .....
pirate:

I'm jealous!! ::yes:: I hope you all have a great time at Disneyland!!

Well, I officially have a room-mate for this cruise! Much loved, ex-sister-in-law, Pam, is joining me! She still has to get final clearance from her boss for a 2 week plus vacation, but I say.....plenty of time to find a new job if he doesn't! :lmao:

.

That's great that you have a roommate now :) I still haven't gotten the "OK" from work to take off 2+ weeks. :surfweb: Oh well! I sent the COO of the company (she has the final say on these kinds of things) an email on January 13th and haven't heard back. I'm taking the lack of a negative reply as an approval. :thumbsup2 :cool2:

HAPPY SUPER BOWL SUNDAY EVERYONE !!

Have a great day everyone,

Kathy

YEAH!!! pipes are thawed out with no damage, so we now have water:thumbsup2

BOO!! Now I have no excuses and I must do the dishes and laundry:rotfl2:

Kathy

I'm glad that everthing turned out ok, Kathy! Glad the dogs made it outside in time, too! lol

I hope all of you in the States looking forward to the Super Bowl commercials picked up your Sobe 3-D glasses at the grocery store to watch the 3-D commerical airing in 2Q. There are no loyalties to either team at this house, so it's a day to just celebrate American football. I will say that being I grew up closer to Cleveland, by default I may have some more cheers for the Cardinals. ;) (Sorry all my dear PA friends!)

Regardless, everyone having a party or going to one, be safe and have fun!



That's EXCELLENT news, Kathy! Whew!

The New England Patriots aren't playing so ultimately we don't care who wins, but DS17 is a fan of the St. Louis Rams, and he still likes Kurt Warner, so since Warner now plays for the Cardinals, we'll be cheering for them. :cheer2:

I still have to find someplace to get the 3D glasses!! :3dglasses We're having our own little Superbowl Party here tonight!
EDITED TO ADD: Just got back with some 3D glasses! The supermarket around the corner still had them!!! :3Dglasses
 
Welcome!:wave2:



We have DVC point envy! :snooty:


Ditto on both counts!!

Happy Superbowl Sunday everyone!

Can I join this thread too? Just made my reservation for this cruise Thursday, and I'm pumped! Haven't been on a cruise since I sailed the Disney Wonder on a 3 day cruise in August 2000.

This one looks like a lot of fun! So far, it's just me, but that's ok -I'm sure it'll be fun.

Now to go back through 100+ pages....:rotfl:

I saw your thread out on the main Cruise Board and don't worry, there are other solos on this cruise, and it's really a very friendly bunch, so you'll have a lot of "friends" with you no matter what! :grouphug:

Welcome to the Westbound Mediterribean Cruise! A jump from a 3 day to a 14 day will be quite a treat. We have lots of singles and lots of adults traveling without children, so you will have plenty of 'playmates'.

.
 
For some reason, I haven't been able to access this thread for the last 3 days?!?

So welcome to womanredress and disney1976! I think we're going to have a great time on this cruise. :hyper:

Welcome aboard!

Our first cruise was a 3 day Wonder cruise and our next was the 15 day Eastbound Panama Canal last August!

DH & I will also be traveling without our DS.
 
Hello all...hello to Nordkin...that's at least a name I recognize from 3+ years ago. We made our transatlantic reservation on the 1/17 cruise. We're hoping a couple of our FL friends will join us, and maybe some more from VA. We have plenty of time to bug them.

I don't think we've ever had so long to plan, over 18 months! We did both WB Panama cruises and the 11-night southern Carib so the weeklong cruise was far too short. But thankfully I think I can fit in 2 more weeklong cruises before the transatlantic. And maybe a research trip to Barcelona. :) I haven't been there since the '92 Olympics.

Happy sailing!
