that will take a few things off my list..and hopefully ease some of my stress, well that and a big
Now, if the latter is because of my clumsy attempt to make a costume or the costume theme in itself.......... who knows!?
Well everyone....I know you will miss me
Have a great Labor Day weekend and I will talk to you all next week! Not much longer till we will all be on the Magic!!!
I just dread that we will be the family that others RUN off the plane talking about.espically after 7 1/2 hours.
Great news for me, I can fit all my clothes in ONE/UNO Duffel Bag!!!!Wondering how? Bought Packing Cubes from Ebags.com. One happy cruiser! Almost packed/trial.
Come on...save a few pics to share with us. After all, you can say, "I'll never see these people again anyway." 
Anyway, the teacher liked it. The principal requires him to keep a written journal and since he is in kindergarten, that wouldn't work. They say that otherwise they would have to give an oral account of the trip. Uhhhh no way. My kid comes home from one day of kindy and can't tell me crap that he did...let alone a 10 day vacation. 
for me. No, not my docs. But I got my FE and pillowcases from Tiffany today. FREAKIN' AWESOME!!! She did such a great job. I adore the pillowcases and so glad I did them with her. And the FE is so stinkin' cute. I'm so excited. AHHHHHHH
Jacq: wish I wasn't missing it.
Just checked the mail and received some gift cards and a check for surveys I did. Now it is time to go shopping!!
We look forward to meeting some new friends and some old friends from our last cruise. You too Fat Cat. We leave for the World in just over a week from now. Can't wait. We have a brunch reservation and will be trying the jet ski on castaway cay. See you all at the port, plan to be arriving at 10 am. 
Besides, it's oh so educational. How many parents can say they had their kids speak some 'native' tongue* after a trip? He's already got the one of St. John down. And apparantly the Bahama's have no official language, so that one has also been covered.
Crystal: Did you tell the teacher yet? How is Ansley adjusting. Monday and Tuesday were good around here but Wednesday night the tears began. He was so overtired. Thankfully he didn't realize that is why he was crying at the drop of a ht. More of the same yesterday and today. Thank goodness for two 4 day weeks. Corbin is off today and Monday of course. Then nothing like getting into a routine just to yank him out for 8 days of school to go on vacation. Ack!! Oh well, I know it will be worth it. I'm totally feeling guilty about it all...just hand me a drink as soon as I get on the ship and I'm sure I'll be fine.
Well, we got the forms back from Corbin's school regarding vacation. APPROVED. But in huge letters written by the assistant principal...ONE TIME EXCEPTION ONLY!!!
Lastly, a big
And, for what it's worth, he'll adjust in no time at all!!! Hang in there, Hon, both of you! Besides, it's oh so educational.

*Dutch is spoken and an official language on St. Maarten, but it's not the original language.
Maybe you can get the CMs at the front desk drunk and maybe they'll upgrade you to the Walt Suite.

Poor FatCat - - you just can't catch a break.
- like he needs the encouragement 
So I don't miss anything like I did last year. I need a list of the fun stuff we will be doing during the week. I know Sun. 27th is the cabin tours @ 3:00pm (meet at cabin 5509) and the P.J. breakfast is Fri. Oct. 2nd at Lumiere's 7-8 am. Is there a meeting place Sat. the 26th besides the terminal? I may not get there till about 1-2 pm.
Still don't know exactly what I'm going to do with the suit coat.
today regarding vacation. She said at the beginning of the year that she prefers email b/c it's easier and quicker to respond, but she also is fine with notes. I just wanted to make sure that she would get the message, hence the email. So I basically told her when Hannah was going to be out and when she would be back. I also told her that I wanted to give her plenty of notice so that she can get any assignments/homework together for her to complete while we are on vacation. I stressed how important it was for us to make sure she stayed caught up with the class. Then I asked her if I needed to send in a formal letter to her or the office and to please let me know if there was anything else she needed from me, etc. However, Hannah has told everybody in her class already, including her teacher, that she was going. So I don't think her teacher was shocked.
