September 12, 2009 ~ Last Call for Tortola! Thread 3

Well my magnet printing went well, but they look a bit washed out.:sad2: Can't decide whether something is missing ink wise or if the paper is poor quality. Ah well, can't get any more paper, so apologies to Ian if they don't look too sharp.

Marilyn,

Would you like me to print off some for you here and put them in with ours?
 
ya I have to say I'm bummed at the levels, I'm only at 4 with this cruise, that means 2 more in order to enjoy the next level :sad2:

Nan. You are super duper cool. This is our 4th cruise as well. All of the really cool people have only been on 4 cruises (or will have been after this one). Four is a super cool number. Four is this year's Five.
 
Wow, my last day of work before vacation. I'm working at home today.

A week ago, I had envisioned that I would just be doing little things and coasting into vacation, instead, I'm under huge pressure today. Still, the good thing is that I was brought in to "make everything all better" and not the cause of the problem.

Oddly enough though, I'm when officially on vacation, I can usually switch off completely and not think about work. I suppose I'm really good at compartmentalizing.

The only bad thing this time is that my boss went out this week on knee surgery, though I think next week she'll be working at home. I find myself wondering if I should be giving out my cell phone number? I never have not in all the time I have a cell phone. I have always trained people that when I'm on vacation I'm on vacation. My boss knows all the different ways to contact me (cell, email, ship) and has only done so when there was truly an emergency.

Still, I find myself wondering this time, and wondering if the people on my project team will be able to show the same restraint?

It will be great to leave tomorrow. Then I'll be able to focus on what's really important, food, alcohol, and looking fabulous at the designated costume events.

------------------------------

Is it too early to have the sign-up sheets for the designated costume events? On the Panama Canal cruise, there were so many people who were disappointed because they did not get a photo with us. So sad.

I wouldn't give out your cell# to your boss. It just makes it easier to call you. If it's truly an emergency they can call you on the ship. It is too easy to just call you on your cell (that genie can't ever be put back in the bottle!) they would have to think about whether it's important enough to call you on the ship.

So what are the designated costume events? Wouldn't want to miss the show
 
Garry, sounds like you have an escape artist in your barn! :lmao:Once Peg had ridden my horse to a friends house and put her in their paddoc with the other horses. I guess CheBye figured she might as well just stand around at home, jumped the fence, and took off down the street and headed back to her own barn!


MONICA, the box has arrived in Orlando and is on the truck for delivery to your office today.

Guess I should hit the shower and get ready for work...need to pack up the grooming aids, seal up the box that goes to the ship and head into work a little early, so I can slip out a little early. :thumbsup2

So right about not being able to put the genie in the bottle. My boss does have my cell, but she has never used it. I take that back, she uses it nearly every trip, to call me to ask be to pick up something in WDW, never about work!

I don't think others would show the same restraint.

The designated costume events are:

- High Tea (I think we have high tea on Sunday)
- Formal Night
- Semi-Formal Night (where we'll be premiering a new look).

Oddly enough, the only night we purposely don't dress up is pirate night.
 
I printed some Mickey ears last night for my kids to cut up. grandmaz, were you going to print these for us? ;)
I am having my wife laminate them and I'll put magnet stickers on the backs.
Here is something to look forward to

Guess what it is?

It's a UFO? :confused3
 
Another big storm just came off the coast of Africa. Hope it doesn't form into anything.

But, if it does we'll just go with the flow ;)

Yeah, I just saw that. I'll be keeping my eye on that now too.

Looking forward to next week...no matter where we go.

Only if you wanted grey ears and not black ones!!!

No idea on the picture, but I will keep thinking!
 
Let me know where you're staying at WDW - I can get them to you ahead of time (after they're assembled--so Wed/Thurs best) (PM me or email me if you prefer :) ) We must have you looking like a DISer as soon as possible :rotfl2:

:). I will be at Saratoga Springs Tree Houses with my family Sept 11 :).

(In case you want to leave mine there. If it's easier I will get it at the meet in Promenade Lounge.)

:) thanks :)

Got my folder and packing cubes yesterday (came 5 days earlier than the estimate). DH was not excited, maybe he will wwhen he sees how much room it saves on packing and we won't need (hopefully) the extra bag. Started my staging area, got the kids' clothes all out. Gotta do mine and DH still needs to get his out. Then let the packing begin!
