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

[apurplebrat]

When I got home from work the docs were here !!!!

 

[goofy4dvc]

Thats Great Fireplug, I was beginning to worry about your DOCS after I giot mine... By the way, I'll be right there in Margaritaville with you...LOL

You all better save us a couple of chairs at Margaritaville. Love that Jimmy Buffett!

 

[goofy4dvc]

Has anyone see the Department 56 Mickey's Haunted House? It is really cute!

Love that! Gotta get me one.

 

[goofy4dvc]

No docs here yet either, but this is about the time UPS comes around our neighborhood, so I'm waiting...and waiting...and waiting...

Don't know if anyone was following the sentencing of the BTK serial killer here in Wichita. He was like a dark cloud hanging over the city for 30 years. Now he's in prison for the rest of his life. He was really demented. I feel so sorry for his family...and of course for the families of the people he killed. Maybe the healing process can start now.

Well, on to happier thoughts!! Can't believe it's only 2 weeks away. Don't have anything laid out to pack, don't have pirate costumes yet, don't have a magnetic door sign! Aargh!! Gotta get busy or I'll be walking the plank!

 

[goofy4dvc]

YES!!! We have DOCS!! DOCS have finally arrived!! UPS man parked next door just to torment me, then walked over to my house. Whew! I can breathe a sigh of relief now.

Congrats to all that got Docs today!!!

So glad Mom & Dad (grumpy 1) got their docs today so that the the hostage negotiations ended and I was able to free my fedex pkg that was delivered to their house with my $200 disney dollars.

Mary - What is a DDE card, I keep racking my brains but can't think of what it stands for.

Whoohoo! I see others got their docs today too!

It's SO great to see so many more getting their docs today. And, to anyone left that hasn't gotten theirs, I'm sure you'll get them the beginning of next week.

So, who's going to chat tonight? I wasn't going to be going, because I was supposed to be at a meeting tonight. But, Emily is running a fever (after only 4 days in preschool for the year). It's amazing how quick they get sick once they are back in school.

Anyway, so I'll be able to be in chat tonight!!!

Thank you for answering my question!!!

Sorry to hear Emily is sick. Gee, 4 days didn't take long. There must be something going around -- even long distance. I was just talking with Lisa and her son Sam's coming down with something too. Maybe I should keep mine home until after the cruise to minimize the germs. Here's hoping they feel better soon.

I'm planning on dropping in chat. Wasn't it last Friday that you and I were there until the wee-hours?

My hubby and I would like to go on a tour of the staterooms..please let us know the times and the details..thanks Marianne PS GLAD MY GOOD VIBES WORKED AND MORE PEOPLE GOT THEIR DOCS.. Heres a couple more for the ones who didn't.. PPS Forgot to ask you guys about Palo..I told my hubby that he will not need a jacket this time as the 4 day cruise has no formal nite but does he need one for palo..thought he could just wear nice slacks and a shirt or nice pullover top..please let me know as I am constantly going in the suitcases and taking things out..Marianne

I know, I couldn't believe that she didn't even make a week without getting sick. And, she's been healthy since early summer. I actually got Emily up this morning and she sounded a bit stuffy, but she said that she was fine. We got her to school and when we got into her classroom, she had a runny nose. I went to go help her blow it, and noticed that she was warm. We basically turned around and went back home. The teacher said that one of the other kids had stayed home the day before with a fever. So, I'm sure that's where she got it.

Chris and I were talking that if things are still going around the preschool the week before the cruise, we just may keep her out that week too, just to keep her healthy. We'll see, I guess.

And yes, you and I chatted late into the evening last Friday night. But, it was very, very fun!!!

[We went on a cruise in Feb 2004 that we booked 6 days before.]

Hi Gail,

What cruise did you go on in Feb 04? We went on the 7-14 Feb 04 Eastern cruise. We might have been shipmates and not even known it

Mike

That would have been cool, but it was just a 4 night that we went on, it was that week that's Presidents week. My sister and her dh were going and she kept calling here bugging us to go. We finally gave in, booked the cruise, but didn't tell her, until we got down there the night before the cruise. Needless to say, she was a bit surprised and I was so proud because I was able to keep it a secret for a week! That's saying alot since I talk with her pretty much everyday and I was busting at the seams trying to keep it a secret.

THE DOCS ARE HERE! THE DOCS ARE HERE! :thewave:

yOU GET THE PICTURE!!

PS-I was also out of the house--sneaky UPS!!

Another thing to consider to pack for younger kids is the Crayola Wonder products. They have markers, stamps and even finger paints that only work on the special crayola paper. They are great for the plane and even at dinner to keep them occupied.

Oh I love those Crayola Wonder Crayons. I bought it for my dd, but I colored most of the pictures in the book. I showed it to my sister and she went and bought one for herself. We love to color and those books and markers are so cool!

After receiving the docs, I read from cover to cover, the Passport info enclosed. Some interesting things, First DCL gives some suggestions for what to pack.

THERE IS NOT ONE MENTION OF BLINKIES!!! That must be amended!

I also noticed that ESPN is still listed as as a plce to hang out for adults. I thought that was converted.

I also read that no coolers or food could be brought on. That is not something DCL enforces, is it? I know I have brought on a soft pack cooler in the past.

Now, should I try to get in chat again?

Myabe I'll try a different computer!


DH keeps asking-what are you so happy about?
I GOT DOCS!! He knows nothing of all of this pre palnning chit chat. I told him he has no idea!!

We were out at a company party this afternoon and when we got home our docs were here! I guess we really can go on the cruise now

Must be the pre-2005 DVC member cruise version.

Hopefully it will work for you this time. We see you come in/go out usually several times. Maybe a different computer will help. Good luck and hopefully we'll see you there!

Having a chat problem again!! I see that I am in, but I never actually enter the chat room!
