Kim - At least you can tell your husband how inexpensive they are! And the sandals are just terribly, terribly cute!!! Ahhhh, shoes, I love you.

Off to make dinner - Didi would be so disappointed in me. We're having sloppy joes. Yikes! She probably made rack of lamb with creme brulee for dessert!

Later!

Hi All,

The t-shirt company called me this morning. No problem on changing the date but they are having second thoughts with the Mickey picture on the bottom front.

Would anybody like to select some text maybe? How about: Cruising with the Mouse?

Ideas?



Any last minute shirt additions?

Back later...

David

Maybe something, I don't know, like "Julie is so cool" or something like that?

HEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sloppy Joe night makes me squirrely!

 

[GilesFamily]

Ok, now I am worrying my formal isn't up to par. I don't have a fancy schmancy dress. Is everyone wearing a long dress? Like a formal gown? EEEEEK!

I'm definitely NOT wearing a fancy schmancy dress.

Good Evening fellow cribbage players,

I just would like to inform all of you that you have been duped into thinking I was this great cribbage player. Since I am absolutely terrible at the game, I had to come up with another method of winning. Let’s just say that 18 years in contracts with major connections to Attorney’s have proven again that you don’t have to play the game to win.

I’m doing a little documentation dance tonight I just got confirmation from the American Cribbage Congress regarding the submittal of the amendments to Rule 13 by my legal council.

Here I’ll post it for all to read:

Dear Mrs. Diane McEntee,

After carefully reviewing the recommendations for amendments proposed and submitted in writing by you and your legal council, the board has accepted the following:

Rule 13.1 In the event that DiDi starts to show a loss, she may kick the board.
Rule 13.2 In the event that DiDi is still showing a loss, she may be allowed a street. This is a thirty point stretch lead to her opponent at any time she requests.
Rule 13.3 In the event that Muggins is played, any points DiDi over looks will be given back to her plus 10 more.
Rule 13.4 In the event that DiDi does not cut the low card, she still gets the crib and consecutively five more cribs thereafter.
Rule 13.5 Any opponent who pegs points off of DiDi’s hand forfeits the points and DiDi gets another street.
Rule 13.6 Any partner of DiDi must make sure DiDi wins!!!
Rule 13.7 Any single opponent playing DiDi must make sure DiDi wins!!!
Rule 13.8 NO MATTER WHAT DIDI MUST WIN!!!!
Rule 13.9 DIDI WINS, DIDI WINS, and DIDI WINS
Rule 13.10 Any opponent who loses to DiDi must play a game of Monopoly.

The modifications of Rule 13 have been put into our Official Tournament Rules as of September 6, 2005. Per your council’s request, these modifications will remain in full force until October 2, 2005. If there should be any other request’s to modify the Amendments, the requestor will have to petition your legal council’s firm, DOWE, CHEATEM & HOW in person with a full 20 page write up of the benefits of changing Rules 13.1, 13.2, 13.3, 13.4, 13.5, 13.6, 13.7, 13.8, 13.9 and 13.10.

Once again, by honoring all ACC rules, a player will have guide-lines for good sportsmanship and fair play resulting in an enjoyable experience for all participants.

We have forwarded a copy of this letter to your attorney, Esquire Cheatem.

Sincerely,

American Cribbage Congress​

Someone help me, I've lost my mind!!!

OK are we the ONLY one's who have NOT recieved their DOCS???

i'm starting to get nervous........Why doesn't my UPS man like me???? I promise I'll be nice and not mow you down like Julie

Julie: I made sloppy joe's for the first time in YEARS during our camping trip last week and the family LOVED them.
Your right Didi probably has some 4 course meal planned that took her 20 minutes to whip up and her hair isn't even messed Can't you just see her in her high heals and frilly aprin, waiting for her DH at the door. "How was your day dear"?

 

[kcatoir]

FINALLY...I'm doing the Doc Dance and the icons aren't even working!!!

Oh well, at least I have my docs and the good news is that Erin does too (don't mean to steal your thunder Erin, but you got to tell everyone I am pregnant... But actually the other good news is that Briley's documents got sent to Erin's house even though she is registered in our state room. That is why we were so hoping they would come in before we saw each other this past weekend. I thought it was pretty cool of DCL to send them to her instead of me, and we didn't even ask them to.

Now, back to getting ready for Bunco. I have most of the cleaning done and most of the food is ready. Now I need to get the tables set up and I will be ready.

Did you guys book with DU???
I hope mine come soon

 

[cujobugs]

Kim!!!!!!!!!! No shoes??????????????!!!!!!!!!!! Why didn't you tell me and Julie? Didn't you know our company also has an accessory line? Here is a link for your shoes. We had them specially made for you. Sorry, guys, turn your eyes. As they are made out of maxi pads! Too beautiful!

Julie, Sloppy Joe's...the horror.....thank goodness we have a cruise coming, your poooor children will finally have a decent meal.

Oh Kim, 20 mins. just to long. I can whip up a dinner in 10 mins. Cheese and crackers anyone?

Tonight, yukon gold, garlic mashed potatoes. Followed with carrots and chicken cooked all day in the crockpot. Nothing fancy. It's a real Cleaver household here. Yes, I didn't even work up a sweat. That would be so unlady like. Heels, aprin

Actually I haven't had a Sloppy Joe in years and I use to love them. Maybe that will be part of next weeks menu. Gals, I'm in for no more than a 30 min. meal. Simple is good........ Tomorrow night meat loaf.

Kim- You might as well quit waiting on the U.P.S. man. Rumor has it that the U.P.S. man has been hospitalized in Kansas City due to some woman who trompled him when he opened the door. Gee, Julie, I wonder who? He now has a broken leg and is in shock. Rumor has it that the brown bag lieing beside his hospital bed contains docs with your name on them. I didn't want to tell you this story, as I didn't want you to be mad at Julie! Sorry Julie, I just had to spill the beans!

[mcentee]

Deanna, stop it!!! The shoes

Didi

 

[mcentee]

I have to get some work done here, catch you all later on. I have to get back to my packing....

 

[cujobugs]

Knitting?! No way. Who has the time?

Julie- Love to meet and chat with you again. When is good for you? Do you have time or are you too busy categorizing something? Or buying shoes?

Keri- I love Bunco. I've been in several groups. Have a great time! Congrats on the doc dance !!!! Good thing you have a different U.P.S. man than Julie!

Kim- Go fish?! Love to! I also am clueless about cribbage.

Jamie- Good luck on post 2526! You better keep checking the boards! At this pace we'll be on that number tonight at midnight. Sorry you will miss it, Didi!

Didi- Love the rule sheet. Gee, I'm glad I'm not involved in this little match!

Ingrid- Our company has also picked out some shoes for you! We thought you needed more height!!!! Here's the link!

Check back later! Deanna

 

[cujobugs]

Gee, Julie, I went back to check who got the post for my room number (2081). Thanks for steeling my thunder!!!!!!! Don't worry, I may recover. If not, I will just join the U.P.S. man in the intensive care unit! Don't worry about me over here. Why me?

Depressed Deanna whose thunder has been stolen

Sorry, Deanna! You can have my number - 6043! Knock yourself out!

 

[b&j's_mom]

Julie- Love to meet and chat with you again. When is good for you? Do you have time or are you too busy categorizing something? Or buying shoes?

Well, I am pretty flexible. I know that Fridays are better for you though. Do you want to meet for lunch again on Friday or something? Let me know what's good for you. You're the workin' gal! Oh, and I LOVE the maxi pad (what a silly word) shoes! And the platforms! Ingrid will hit her head on the ceiling in those!! Tee Hee!

I'll have you know that the UPS man only received minor injuries. He's fine !!!

 

[power_alaska]

BOY, this work thing is just such a nuisance. Bad News is they didn't fire me -I have to go back tommorrow!!! I think I need a vacation!!! I KNOW, I'll go on a cruise!!!

Won't even try to make comments on all the discussion that went on today ~ with a few exceptions.

DIDI - I'm impressed! You took the time to find out what Rule governed Amendments!!! Great negotiation there!

Eric & Season ~ Obviously you like to gamble? No Passports yet?

Kim ~ I would be asking for tracking numbers and verifying location of my DOCS! Leave nothing to chance!!!

Keri ~ Just ask Chrystina how she does it. She seems to get the greatest & latest equipment all the time! How was I to know that Sewing Equipment came out on an annual basis! Now she wants a Long-Arm Quilting machine!!! Fortunately, I never thought I would be rich!

Julie ~ Just take Chrystina sandal shopping with you too! I give up! Maybe I will go play golf or go fishing!!!

Dennis ...

 

[b&j's_mom]

Dennis - Well, you didn't get fired today. I call that a great day!

 

[power_alaska]

Julie ~ This will probably be pretty low stress in comparison to my previous jobs. Went well. See no reason why it should change. Techies heaven! Lots of computers & state of the art stuff. Virtual Simulators, computerized games, and live interactions. Aircraft, Vehicles, etc. If I can give up my addiction to stress, this could be pretty easy & FUN! Dennis
