When I filled it out last time, I just put "1" for the number of nights. No one corrected me. I don't know if they didn't catch it or if it was correct. If you want to keep it blank for now, there are lots of people to help you fill in any blanks before you check in at the port.

 

[b&j's_mom]

Ingrid - This is what I put so far...and this could totally be wrong:

arriving by: I checked the box by "Discovery Cruises/Ferry/Other Ship"

I have the "Date of Arrival" blank still

City: Port Canaveral

Intended stay: I put "1"

I might sure I am the shortest everyone will have to look down to make sure they don't trip over me or the kids.

I am in on the shopping exercise.

Am I the only one that feels like they are forgetting something? I can't belive I am leaving in 8 more days.

I do love to cuddle with the DD.

 

[b&j's_mom]

Ingrid - How is Chantel feeling now? I hope she's shaken that fever.

We get to call shoe shopping EXERCISE!!!!! WOOOO HOOOOO!!!!!!! Extra suffle over here waiter!!!!!!!

Well if I HAD my docs i probably would be just as confused as the rest of you on how to fill them out.

Ingrid and Julie: aren't you glad kido's are getting sick now and not in 9 days ? Not that we want them to get sick at all

Here's a no hurricane and no sickness dance:

FFFFHHUUUU!!! That wore me out.....pant....pant......

Her fever is down today, Julie. Thanks for asking. Took her to the doc's today, and he could'nt figure out what was causing the fever. Anyways, we stayed home today, but now she is bored...bored..bored. How did Jack's appt. go?

I really needed to go to work today, but my kid comes first no matter what. Tomorrow is my last day of work, then I'm off for a couple days before the wedding..and the rest until we get home from the trip. Whoohoo! Oh, sorry, Dennis..I mean WAHOO.

Marsha,

I'm not sure if you'll be the shortest---(I'm 5 feet even), but I can guarantee that you'll have company. Maybe we can stand or chairs (or each other's shoulders ) to talk to all of the tall cruisers

 

[smilingmouse]

Ingrid,

I'm glad Chantel is better...best of luck this weekend

 

[b&j's_mom]

Ingrid - I am so happy she is feeling better and that fever is gone. I tell you what, I never thought I could worry as much as I do about my kids' health. Jack is a long story, but his troubles started when I was 20 weeks pregnant - anyway, we are lucky to have him and that he is as healthy as he is. His doctor appointment went well, it was just a follow up to his back surgery from last year (sept. 24, 2004 - familiar?!) Good news is, everything is as it should be!

Kim - Yes, I would rather them be sick the week before instead of the day before the trip! Now he is on antibiotics so hopefully we won't have to deal with an ear infection right before the flight like we did in January!!

 

[partyelf]

Kim... your on girl! Mid morning (like 9ish - heavy on the ish!) works for me.

Shopping as exercise?! This is the first some of you have heard of this?! You give woman a baaad name if you haven't shopped enough in one outing to break a sweat. I'll teach ya all how to shop ladies!! Just follow me...

Till next time,
Christine

Hey everyone! Did you see the new excursion just posted on the disney website? It is for Key West. I guess recently some women have been calling into the company and complaining there wasn't enough excursions on Key West. The following was copied and pasted from their website.

Key West Excursion: Are you crazy about shoes?! Then this is the excursion for you! Meet us at the Promenade Lounge at 1 p.m. We will go together as a group walking barefoot. Our destination is the Kino Sandal factory. You will have 2 hours to pick out your favorite pair. Then we will do the conga back to the ship with our new sandals. Disney prefers that guests have a pedicure prior to this excursion.
Meeting time 1:00p.m.
Duration 3 hours
Minimum age: none
Cost: $30 per person payable to Deanna. (checks accepted)

Everyone is posting so quickly, it is hard to respond to people!

Didi- I think you may be sorry you made that statement. "I will lose weight on this cruise!" We will remember that statement when you are standing next to me at the midnight buffet line!
Also remember that the time you are seeing is Eastern time on my posts! I am actually an hour different. That is why I kept thinking you were posting so early, you are an hour ahead of me. And the time listed on that post is different on your computer than it is on mine since I'm central time. How confusing is that? But I noticed you said it was 7 a.m., but my computer said you posted at 6 a.m. So it really makes you look like you are getting up earlier! Make sense? My post this morning would have been around 7:00 a.m., not 8 a.m. It says 8 a.m. on yours because that is your time!

Julie- Too bad about lunch! Let me know if you have a different time in mind. Love the new pic!

Ingrid- I guess we will have to use Heavy flow maxi pads with wings to fit your feet. They will be perfect. (sorry, men)

Wow! Do we have some tall ladies on this ship, or what?! You go, girls! You all should be models! mkusmile, Ingrid, and partyelf will be wondering where everyone else is! And we will be right under their noses!

Erinc- Carissa sent photo album. I hope you get it!

See ya in a while. Deanna

Deanna, once again I'm busted. Gosh, okay meet me at the Midnight buffett, I think something chocolate has my name on it.

I'm so confused, so when I posted at 5:30AM this morning it was 4:30AM your time? Why did I think Kansas was 2hours behind us? Okay then you are a true blue Early Bird. So the next time you post it will be at 6:30AM my time and 5:30AM your time. Looking forward to your post right before I leave for work.

By the way if I didn't say thank you for my door magnet, thank you again. Is there anything special you would like from Bean town? You know it has to be under $2.00, so we can spend our money on those sandals!! Choose wisely my dear friend.

Ingrid, are you hanging in there? How's the stress level?

Just so everyone knows, Bill, Patrick and I pray for each and everyone of you in the morning. I know that everyone will have an awesome time on the Magic.

Marsha, it;s a given I'll be your partner in cribbage too. You'll have to share me with my sisteroo. Love ya, Kath

In order to make it fair for the Kath to work off $150.00 calories, we'll have to give her a booster rocket for her scooter. Go Kath, Go Love Ya!!!

Christopher Walsh is offically 9 years old today. Happy Birthday to my dear nephew!! Auntie Didi loves you.

Dinner is served. Meatloaf, green trees and frozen fries. Yummy. I'm so ashamed. My image is totally shattered with this one. So much for the crepes tonight.

I'll check in later after I finish my bill paying. Why don't those nasty bills just go away, OH...I didn't mean you Bill (DH).

Didi- That is so awesome that you think of us in your prayers! Could you simply add at the end of your prayer to help Deanna not gain weight? I would appreciate it!

Ingrid- I can't imagine your stress level right now! A wedding, a sick child, a sick brother, and a cruise! Hang in there, girl! We are thinking of you.

Christine- I must stay away from you and your shopping skill lessons! I certainly don't want to go into extreme shock when I see my room charges at the end of the cruise. I have a feeling it isn't going to be pretty!

Later, Deanna

 

[GilesFamily]

stress level?
What stress level?

What year is it again?
Who are you?
Who am I?

 

[mcentee]

Deanna,

It will go like this.

God, please let all our dear friends from this post, especially the lovely ladies not gain one 1 lbs one this cruise. God in all your wonderful kindness and grace, please let Deanna lose about 5lbs and Didi about 10lbs.

Thank you God. We love you.

Thank goodness God created laughter and a sense of humor.

There you go everyone.

P.S. excuse the spelling if there are any errors, I'm tired.

Another 5 pages?! Holy Crap! I'm going to have to give up work!

DIS Cast Member = 500 Posts - Some of you are close!!!

Marsha ~ If you check the time of my posts, you'll probably find I am a 24/7 Posting Member - depending upon what time zone I am in!!!

DIDI ~ That schedule will work for me ... BUT it is getting started a little late , I may skip the first cup of coffee and go for an extra mile! OBTW 3x=1Mile Remember getting your metabolism going early means you get to eat MORE.

Eric ~ Certified Birth Certificates!!! (Agree w/Jamie). OKAY, as long as you have alternative COA set up! You were making me worry!

Season - Great ... He probably was NOT suprised ...

Keri ~ You understand that when you get it, there can be no more whining about golf clubs, fishing gear, or whatever else ... The equipment is the INEXPENSIVE part ~ I have declared JOANN as a TAX deduction ...

Becky ~ Chrystina has TOO MANY shoes. BUT yes, she can go on the Sandal Shopping Excursion. ~ Like I had a choice?

Christine ~ Great Dance! Both of them!

Ingrid ~ Castaway Cay requires Bahama paperwork ...

*** Break ***

Okay, I think that catches me up, for the moment. Got to go take care of the garden, cats, dinner, laundry and some exercise! REALLY! this working & being home just REALLY confuses my life!

Back in a bit ...

Dennis

Dear Ingrid,

This is for you. Dear God please bless Ingrid, help her and give her peace of mind. Let her know that you love her and you are with her during this time of happiness and sadness. Dear God, please give Ingrid a big hug, a special hug just from you. You are a God of great mercy and love.

And a hug from me too.

Yup, got the big connection with my main guy. Any other prayer requests?

Didi

Okay ~ So far today, approximately 73 posts! With 326 remaining to go to the target GOAL. Approximately 4.4657534246575342465753424657534 from now. Shall we start a Lottery as to who will get it?! I can just imagine everyone sitting out there trying to hit the "submit" button at the right time. Kinda like Auction Sniping on eBay! Deanna & Julie ~ Play nice!

 

[power_alaska]

DIDI ~ Just start now and don't stop until a half hour after I'm dead! Maybe the Devl won't find out I am gone! Remind me to tell you the story about the Mennonite Farmer's from Florida that I "met" in Alberta may years ago!

Okay ... NOW ... the chores!
