Sept 4-8 2005 Wonder S.S. Member Cruise! Part 2

[Diana Lyn]

I'm counting on the idea that by the time I drink $200.00 worth of Konk Koolers, I won't be able to stand and walk long enough to buy pictures, scrapbooking supplies or Coach Bags...


ummm... I'll only be buying $50.00 worth of Konk Koolers. Must be sober enough to shop...

I forgot about shopping!! Cindy, you may as well add another $200 for Coach and then probably another $200 for Key Lime Pie!

 

[Diana Lyn]

We'll be spending a little more than that... talked dh into a couples massage...

Much more my style than co-ed mud wrestling... errr... I mean the Rasul.

Oooh....that's nice! I asked DH if he wanted to do the couples massage. He said he wasn't comfortable with all the touching by strangers!

So I just went ahead and booked the ocean spa wrap seaweed thing for me!

Add another $200 for Birkenstocks!


Okay, where are we now?

If I skip the cruise, I'm sure to have enough for an ADD-ON by now.

They are showing that food network show about the Keylime Pie again 8/25 @ 7:30pm for those that missed it.

Silly me how could I forget $200 for Konk Koolers and $200 for pictures.
Sorry the Coach bags don't do it for me but the pie is calling my name!!

At this rate, if Cameron gets a job NOW, you'll be set for your shopping money on the 11 Day next year.

I meant to say something to you about this before. I am SOO jealous of all the super fun things you guys do!! I never get to do really fun things like you do. But next week my sister who is 12 is coming for the week so I have to plan a fun filled week for her and the girls.

Diana, your kids are little and so easy to take out. Pop them into a double stroller and go. Don't be afraid. Once they get used to it, you'll wonder why it took you so long. I do it all the time with 8 of them and can't imagine spending my days home every day all day long.

We have a membership to a local museum which offers us admission to others in the area. It's probably the best $100 I spend in a year. We could travel all over the place using it. In fact, I should check and see if it gets us entrance into any of the museums on Key West.

The other thing I buy in the year is a zoo membership. We get a lot of use out of it -- both for my daycare and my own family.

But if you buy the Coach Bag (a BIG one), you'll have a place to hide the Key Lime pie, and you won't have to share!

Must I always be the one who's thinking around here???

There you go!! Great idea.

Think I could find one for Walker too?

I didn't think of that!

See two days out of here and we were lost. Good to see you back!

I was surprised when dh agreed. I think he just wants to know exactly what goes on in those massage rooms.

I like how you embraced your husband's unwillingness to come along and agreed to suffer alone Diana!

Thank you. I saw I was needed, and knew I must return...

Stacy can back me up here, we have no zoo, our museums are pretty crappy, or in a crappy area. There is a children's museum in Saratoga, that I hear is very good, but get this--they don't allow strollers!! So we'll never go there until the girls are too old! Trust me that double stroller is my best friend, and it's coming on the cruise, so make room for us! I just have no choice right now. Julia doesn't walk and Emma is too young to listen. Although I'm told they never listen, so I should just give up hope now!

I'm not doing any spa treatments this cruise.
Luckily my sister works at a swanky spa in MA were the rich people go and can get me a reduced rate for a full day of stuff.
So I will be passing on this cruise and enjoying the ship especially since this is our first cruise.

Wow, that's great! I think I need to find my sister a new job...

That's me--always willing to take one for the team!

A children's museum that doesn't allow strollers? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of a "Children's museum".

I wonder who their customers are?


Note to everyone, watch out for Diana after she drinks that $200 worth of konk kooler and is ramming that stroller up the back of everyone legs! Best to stay out of her way!

Stacy, can we be new best friends!

It sounds like you two are off to a good start in that department.
