They were just a beautiful couple,and so wonderful, my boys just loved them and they loved my boys right back. They were so excited, they were going to Disneyland and then were set to go on the "Price is Right" Scarlett had even made custom t-shirts for the Price is Right!!

I have cried bucket fulls of tears today, I just can't believe it. Please say a prayer for them and their family.

Thank you,
Suzie

Linda that sounds great. Did you taste the Coco Polada? They have that every year at the Florida booth at the F&W festival

Yep!! That was the one my hubby wanted to try first. He likes Pina Colada's. It will be the first drink he has on the cruise as well. I just know it!

I have already decided that I am going back again!! I already have some wine orders, anyone else???

 

[bluewaves]

Oh look who came out of the woodwork!!


OMG and I wasn't even trying!!

Congratulations!! If I had known...grumble...I was trying to catch up on the posts today!

 

[bluewaves]

Thanks!! I figured I was setting up CC...

Yeeaahh, right...

 

[bluewaves]

Geez they're evacuating the visitors out of the Keys already for Ernesto.. based on the fact that they think it will be a hurricane again soon and it's poised to hit the Keys. Here we go.........

LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA - I say as I have my fingers in my ears - not hearing what you are saying.

So who will be in Orlando on the 16th?

our flight gets in at around 3:40pm then we will be @ Port Orleans - Riverside for the night

why..are you buying dinner for everyone?

 

[bluewaves]

Okay, everyone. I know everyone has either gone to bed, on Skype, or lurking out there. I am tired but I have to rest before I can go to bed.

Thank you so much Vickie and Gail for organizing the Secret Mickeys!!!!

Malibu?

That's just over the hill from where we live... plus my family had a home out there for some time when I was young. So - are you actually coming out here some time soon?

ummm I think she means the Malibu Rum Factory

Dan and I will be there on the 16th. We will be staying at the Radisson that night and our plans are to go to the Grills meet. The mention of bacon wrapped scallops did me in...

 

[LetsGoSteelers]

I never thought about the fact that my top might not fit by pirate night! Maybe I need to go back to the store to get a size bigger

what do you mean? I thought you were going to stay on that induction plan...no fair cheating

we're going to have to be like that flinstone's episode (don;t know if you all remember it) but when fred was going on a diet, he had that guy shadow him and any time he was going to sneak something the guy would show up and swipe it and make some kinda funny noise....

ok well i thought it was funnny........

 

[LetsGoSteelers]

I'm ready to start packing!!!! I just need to bring all the luggage from the old house to the new one, but I'm waiting for them to finish the bathroom tile so I can store all of it in that closet.

Oh yeah, I actually got tile today, bathroom and the kitchen tile that's been on backorder for 3 weeks!!!! We're almost done!!!! We're having our open house a week from Saturday. I need to take some pics to post.

wow...we're doing the same thing...well, not selling but doing the bathrooms..our project was delayed because the first plumber quit on us, just up and left...the turkey, well I called him something else but didn;t think it was appropriate for the disboards

doing the downstairs and kids bathrooms and ours too, we haven;t used it in years on the account that it started leaking one night into the downstairs kitchen and we've just left it that way since then....see celeste what I meant about procrastination

well, we finally got to doing projects around the house and that was the current one....of course we wait until materials have shot through the roof....I can;t believe what they are asking for bathroom faucets and such these days...oh my God!! it's insane.....

 

[LetsGoSteelers]

It's this whole avoiding medicine, keeping the blood sugar in a decent range thing..lol. I have been very very bad this past month...ugh.

uh oh, yet another victim for celeste to follow us around with a needle in case we keel over

"...been very very bad..." I know the feeling

OH! Wait for me! Wait for me!

Hello all! It was 32 degrees last night in Wyoming! I AM NOT ready for snow OR cold weather yet.

I have lost 19lbs so far (in 3 weeks)! Clothes should fit just fine!

Blue Waves- We look forward to brunching with you as well!

CapnCrash-Have you been to brunch or dinner at Palo? Just wondering. We have done both and LOVE both.

I'm debating on an a little nap right now. We are meeting friends for dinner in Sacramento and will probley stay up pretty late tonight with them

Been working on the Fish Extender, just waiting on the flame retardant to dry now....

'ello,

We've only done dinner once ... so the brunch sounds like great fun as a 1st time experience. And I heard that the food fight at the end of the Brunch is even more FUN then the Topsiders food fights!

 

[Kitster]

OH! Wait for me! Wait for me!

 

[captaincrash]

OK... who's on tonight?

It's precisely MIDNITE and I am now "free" for a little while to work my way back through the postings to TRY and catch up!

OK all - my turn to ask for good wishes on a speedy recovery. I have been rather quiet these last 2 weeks as I have been battling gallbladder attacks. Well as it turned out I had to have it removed on Friday. Didn't plan on it but turned out that way. After 3 attacks within 3 weeks my doctor threatened to blackball me from going on this cruise.

Advances in medicine are amazing, I was rushed into surgery and was out within 1/2 hr. However, it was the reaction to the anesthesia that kept me in the hospital - well that along with low blood pressure - until late that evening. See I told you all that I have bad reactions to anesthesia. Except... I have to say that the advances in medicine will never cease to amaze me. When I told the dr that I ALWAYS reacted violently and was nauseated by the anesthsia, he gave me something to stop the nausea. While I'm happy I may no longer be in pain from having some of my favorite foods, I am in pain from the incisions. Whoever said that the pain wasn't that bad - LIED! LOL. I am in more pain from the dr imposed house arrest than the actual pain...... well ok I lied! The pain is actually tolerable but the no lifting for 10 days along with the no driving is going to kill me!!!! As my husband and kids can tell you - I am not the kind to sit still for long. The only time I allow myself to sit still and not feel any guilt is when I am on vacation - and on sea days only! Ergo - I will probably be a regular fixture on these boards and ebay for the next 7 days! And with my dr's permission - so long as I don't go driving to any shops! Told my DH that I had to listen and obey my dr's orders -

Well if any of you have any suggestions on how to make this H-E- double hockey sticks prison time go any faster - I"m all . So far I've burned the batteries on my Tetris (record of 555 lines with over 51,000+ points. Soduko became boring after my highest solving rate of 3:20 seconds (only to have my DH beat me on his 2nd time playing - so I gave up) and I can't even do laundry or walk my babies as they tend to walk me. I have to work on that! the smallest one (38 #) is the worst one to walk - she has the body of a runt but the brute strength of a bulldog. Heck how am I going to walk them when I need help getting into and out of beds, chairs and can't even go up the stairs without stopping for 10 minutes after 2 steps? Although I 'have been encouraged to walk' as it helps prevent bloods clots. Hey does this mean that I may have my own guardian nurse on this ship? If so - have to tell my dr as he may ok cruise (yeah right as if I'd listen to him ) Oh well, enuf for now.
