[Mackey Mouse]

Morning all....woke early and doing my job here on the Dis and then off to the gym...Happy Wednesday everyone!!!!

Elaine, I will have Tom watch the video today...he needs to laugh, he has been a bit grumpy lately...argghhhh!!!!!!! too much pirating for him I think.

Bob, I scored “Take the Weather With You” yesterday for $9.99 at Kmart, no Walmat here. I like it. Just helping Jimmy maintain. LOL Hey Vitamins are expensive.

House is showing in a very positive light, some folks are even coming back, doing all we can and are hoping it sells soon.

I leave Sunday, making my move to Cheyenne. Living in a van down by the river. Lynn will be down there on 10/20 to house hunt.

This week, my new team leader got me into a very good class. I feel good as I am keeping up and not falling behind. Then again it has only been two days.

You kids will have a great time at WDW in December. PIT is MIA??? Sadly we all have to catchup with the real world, that is my guess.

I am and am not looking forward to WDW in a couple of weeks, too much going on, yet a break might be a good thing.

Later Kids, wishing all well, and thanks for the great memories...... and remember She is just a Hula Girl at Heart... (JB reference)

Dianna,

Can't remember when you took this picture but would love to have a copy. Can't believe Doug's costume turned out as well as it did. We all made great pirates and the group photo was super.

Carol,

As long as you are not in a hurry, no problem. (Tracy's corks just went out yesterday). Send me a PM and let me know how you want them. I'll send you what I have. Lamar took this after the main pirate pic. I cropped myself out. You both looked fabulous!

(Tracy's corks just went out yesterday).

Should I be ready with a forklift when they come?

I have a small bin of stuff that needs to get put away from the cruise, otherwise, totally unpacked. The Mickey room is back to normal and ready for visitors again.

Somebody, throw some Dvc points there way

Thanks Peter - I'll be looking for the points from you shortly. After all, you just added on, so have plenty to spare!

Happy to host the file - Tracy is giving me way too much credit. All I did was say yes - she and Bill did all the hard work. About 20 downloads of the file so far, and server is still humming along (albeit at a snail's pace). Have to talk to the hosting company about the pipeline. This is actually a good stress test for us - as we head into the Christmas season....

Hey Peter, ya little teapot....love the new tag!

Thanks, Laurie and Elaine, yes, sometimes it pays off to be the b*tch that won't stop complaining! I have confidence in my own doctor, but without her, I have little faith in the medical community, since they so easily dismiss any complaint. After I see the ortho guy, I may write a letter to DCL...the doctors on the ship were *very* dismissive of my complaints. I clearly told them that I thought I'd broken my arm when I slipped. Their discharge orders say the diagnosis is a "possible contusion." And the last thing they told me was I didn't need to wear the sling (that they charged me $10.82 for).

Beth

Hm.....I think I see a free DCL cruise in your future!

You mean like the gal we kept seeing....whose husband pushed her wheelchair all around the ship, and several crew members had to push her up the gangway.....but yet on excursions, she could miraculously walk??? I even have a picture of her making the long trek up to the fort at Brimstone Hill Fortress.

I don't think Beth is that type of person.

Stacey, I saw them. They were on our excursion in Barbados. I don't remember seeing her walk very far on that excursion though. I don't see how she could have made it up to Brimstone Hill. I thought that was a hard climb. I did talk to her husband at one point on the Barbados excursion. He's a cast member at WDW.

Yep, we knew he was a CM. And no kidding, I thought I was going to have a heart attack climbing up there! But climb it, she did. We all were astounded.
They were on our tour I think in St John, and she didn't get out of the van....that's why we were so surprised to see her at Brimstone Hill.

Must have missed all this.

Stace how goes it with the insurance Co?

Did you see the photo..
Several Pages Back!!

 

[Mackey Mouse]

OMG are we talking about the woman that castmember carried in her wheelchair back into the ship after excursions....and she walked this Brimstone Hill......We saw the miracle of her walking, actually when we got off the ship, and heard her barking orders at the husband.......I felt sorry for him.

Thanks for asking. Our TA has been a great help in getting us the info for the insurance company, and she's as confused as we are as to why the ins co wants US to dig up all the info that they should be getting themselves. But Sharon and I are willing to do whatever we can to help her get her money back for the lost cruise.

I DID see your picture! That's what makes the tag so funny. I would say "cute" but I know you manly men in your grass skirts may take offense at that word.

It usually took three CM's to push her up the gangway....and yes, she did bark at him. And then she'd say "Oh, I shouldn't say that I guess, or I won't have anyone to push me" Got that right, lady!

Stac: I'll second all this conversation, I saw a lot of it also. Maybe her CM DH is waiting for the insurance payoff and then leaving?? wouldn't that be funny. She was always yelling at him and I never saw her happy or smiling or talking normally. He's sure getting muscles pushing her around
