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

[cgcw]

I just wanted to tell some of my friends here that I am the proud owner of "more points!" - YAY! So, I'm sure hoping to do more travelling to my favorite place and maybe a longer cruise will be in my future - not to mention the Member Cruise for next year.

Wonderful for you. I'm sure you'll put them to good use.

 

[WDWLVR]

Mary - congratulations on the additional points. I'm sure you will put them to good use!

Well, we survived our trip to the Picture People I have to say, I didn't like them before this trip because of a bad visit I had for Emma's 1st bday and I've been boycotting ever since. Someone gave me a gift card when Julia was born and I've held onto it for the last year....and I got this coupon for a free sitting/free 8x10 so I figured now was the time to do it. I just don't like them compared to Sears. Sears gets a lot better shots and you can see the shots when they take them. Here it's a big surprise, they take like 15 shots and you're done an hour later they show you 5, like what if the other 10 are the ones I'd like? Who is this person to choose? So two of the five of mine I liked and as luck would have it a free 8x10 plus my gift card made today completely free. I could tell the girl was mad I didn't buy more..... Julia looks like a boy. But I did an OK job fixing the hat good enough to fit Emma's giant head!

 

[Diana Lyn]

Congrats on the points, Mary!

Amy--sounds like you are in for a very hectic next couple of months! It's pretty exciting news!!

Hey Diana - I think those pictures are adorable!!!!!

Hectic, yes!!! You have NO idea!!! So, when are you moving down to Orlando, so I have some friends????

You have me Amy!! I'll be moving from East Orlando ( Waterford ) to Winter Garden next April hopefully.

I don't know if I'll make chat tonight, what time do you guys end?

Last week it was pretty close to midnight! We were a chatty bunch!

Amy--I'm SO ready to move anywhere! If you build a house, make sure there's an open lot for us in the neighborhood! Seriously, Bruce and I have been talking about it for real. He is saying now when he is done with this job we can move. GE management people hold jobs for like 18 months, then move to the next job. He got this job about 6 months ago, so hopefully this is really my last NY winter! I'd also really like to move before the girls get into kindergarten!

Very cute pictures. Picture People are hit or miss for us. Sometimes we get a good shot and other times I have left without buying anything! If is wasn't for the coupons and the cute props I wouldn't go. My favorite place is Celebrity Kids. They are newer in this area but kind of expensive so I can't go as often as I like.

We're looking at the Winter Garden area, so at least I'll know one person.

That's my deal! I want to move somewhere and not move again until the girls are out of school. I moved around a LOT when I was younger and I went to LOTS of different schools. I don't want that for my girls. So, sure, I'll keep an open lot nearby, so you can move on in.

Lucky people who live in Florida - since I was not able to find a home on my last trip there, I just had to settle for more DVC points!

Cute pictures of all the kids in their Halloween finest - makes me think about how much fun I'll have when the grand-baby arrives in March!

Hope to see ya's in chat tonite!

That's our situation. Now that the kids are getting settled into school, especially Cameron, it's really hard to move and uproot him. We have long ago outgrown our home.

When Gary & I were first married, we move about 8 times in 1 1/2 years. Way to much for my liking.

The up and coming thing in the neighborhood next to us to to do tear downs/rebuilds. We've thought a lot about doing an addition, either out the back or going up. But, with the way the area next to us is changing we kind of feel like our neighborhood is going to follow theirs. So, we staying where we are for now, but not rulling out a tear down/rebuild on the same lot.

I would have a hard time giving up my yard. It's my favorite part of the house. We spend a lot of time out there. I'm sure with a bigger house on our lot, the yard would be smaller, but it would still be big enough.

Time will tell.

Diana - the pictures are adorable!

For those trying for S.S. Member Cruise 2006 ... call in day is 6 weeks away!

S.S. Member Cruise 2006 sails one year from today!​

 

[WDWLVR]

Had a great time in chat last night. Sorry I couldn't stay longer but it had been a long day. Watching Key West on the Weather Channel this morning. Sad to see it all boarded up waiting for Wilma - we had so much fun there back in September!

 

[alikat99]

Good morning everyone!! It looks wet & soggy here, but so far, Wilma is still continuing to hit south Florida. I think that my aunt is going to evacuate though. She's in Punta Gorda, right where Charley hit last year, and she's VERY leary of any hurricane heading for her general area.

Our plan today is to work on the house. It's amazing how we are so motivated now to fix the things that we've put off for months/years. But, now that we need to get this house ready for the market, we're busy, busy, busy getting it ready.

 

[Diana Lyn]

37 degrees here with a high expected of 47 Hopefully, next year at this time, I'll be a lot warmer.

Lot's of errands to get done today because I'll be gone all day tomorrow at a crop. So hopefully, I'll have some pages to post when I get home!

Amy-it just sounds so exciting to me that you are getting stuff ready to sell! Lots of luck to you guys!!
