So I looked on DCL and then found out that they took Off the new Castaway Cay tier info because DCL got over 1,000 calls..

Did DCL realllllllllllllllly think this wouldn't happen?

I LOVE MY PACKING FOLDERS!! I am so happy that we had the discussion!

I think they make packing shirts much easier, but then that's me.

Glad you like them. I always use them now for trips.

I'm home! The suitcases are zipped up (two are in the car). Now I can just relax (that means DIS/facebook) until Cheri gets here around 6PM for dinner with Peg.


Are there ATM's at WDW? Thursday night I may need to grab some cash to bring on the ship (Friday is payday). Is there an ATM at the terminal? I've never had to know this before. Probably should have grabbed an extra $100 out of my savings account, but didn't.

Off to see who's hanging on facebook.

CONGRATS!!!!


Well - thought I would be able to post earlier - but I was and am at work and I actually got called away (how dare they?)...

So now I have to scan my brain for what I was going to post... OH yeah - looking forward to having dinner with Sassy Bubbles and Gaco Wado tonight...

Got a call yesterday about 4:30 p.m. that my grade-school pal and recent re-united Hoosier from FB that lives here now - had time to take me shopping! We hit Macy's full force and she was grabbing and flinging dresses at me left and right - my body started to tense immediatly and I almost bolted for the door!

We, after 3 tries found a dressing room that was OPEN and I began the process of trying on dresses. First dress - a hit! On sale, made me feel like I was ready for the red carpet... second dress - HIT - purple, pleated and "moved"... great for dancing - sale price $17.00 OH YEAH now that's what I'm talking about... third dress - HIT - fourth dress - not so much - purple satin HOT - too tight made me feel like a stuffed pig... after about 10 minutes I had 5 dresses I LOVED! Total at the register after picking up a black sweater snug to wear over the top for walking on deck... $261.00 YES people that for 5 dresses and a sweater. Only the sweater and one dress was full price ($99.00 for the dress and $28 for sweater).

THANK YOU SHOPPING ANGELS! No I have NO idea which one I will wear when - so I'm bringing ALL of them!!!!

I took my lovely pal to dinner for without her I wouldn't have even had the gumption to try on 3!

Cross that off the task list.
Add: make an extra set of house keys for pal Barb who is coming on business while I am away...

Am jealous that people are leaving tomorrow for WDW and I have an entire WEEK before I leave. However, I do have Friday and Monday off !!!! 4 day weekend to do my last few chores and see some movies!

HEY SISTER!!!!

 

[TiggersPal]

WHERE ARE we meeting??? I've forgotten!!!!

 

[ibouncetoo]

WHERE ARE we meeting??? I've forgotten!!!!

We're going to Fridays. Cheri called and is running a little late. She will call from the road when it's getting near 6PM to say if she will be making it to my house, or to decide if we should meet at the restaurant. I'll keep you in the loop. If we meet at the restaurant, I can just pick you up since we have to come back here anyway.

And now everyone knows our plans!
