===============================

Finished eating dinner. Now we are just hangng out watching SPongebob I think we may play some Disney Scene It before bed time. Just what I want to do. Get my butt kicked by a 6 year old

Just found out my boss' father passed away. THe funeral is Thursday. I had to call work and see if I was "allowed" to go. RIDICULOUS. This sick line thing gets on my last nerve.

Not much else planned for the rest of the week. Need to do and clean my bathroom. Once that is done all the fall cleaning is done

Still need to get Jimmy a Halloween costume. I think we may do that on Saturday after we work the Cub Scout popcorn booth

I'm back from the beach and was quite depressed this morning that I had no ocean to look at during breakfast. I also missed not having Reid around in the morning. We had a really nice, relaxing time, but I wish Mitch could have come too. Pesky work!

Since we celebrated our anniversary last weekend, yesterday (our actual anniv) we got takeout! That's what happens after 12 years.

Next Monday I have to get a filling redone and a tooth pulled. It's lose and my mouth is too small, so it has to go. Really? After all these years. Whatever!

My computer won't turn on again. Luckily I got an additional warranty since it was just fixed, but it's so annoying to be without my proper computer.

Mitch is going to Mississippi for the football game this weekend. Although I should go with him to see my family, I'm not. He's actually staying with a friend about 1 1/2 hours from my family so it's not convenient. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.

This is a Disney cruise right? How many nights? Eastern or Western? I can tell you with 99% certainty which nights are which theme based on your itinerary.

If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Yes. It's a 3 night Bahamian cruise

I'm so glad you've done this before, becuase I'm completely lost!!! I've been reading about stuff, but I still feel lost. I read your whole TR today and it helped a bit. I wish someone would post the thingys they give you with all the info each day from one of my cruises. I can't find a TR for a 3 night cruise.

Yeah, that work thing is a pain isn't it

Happy Anniversary to you and Mooch!

Thanks! Same as above...

Just a drive by...I'm paying some bills before we have some dinner and hang out together. Things are really good except for the large purple elephant in the room that I know about but KC is unaware of me knowing...make sense? I am pent up and getting fed up he isn't coming clean. I don't know what to do.

Busy week ahead with work and a few outings i have planned. Thurs is a day of rest tho! Hopefully I can catch up then!

Well with the 3 night the only theme night is pirate night and dressing up is not required, in fact most people don't. No formal night on the 3 nighter so just pack "cruise casual" clothing. So dresses/skirts/pants for the girls and pants and nice button-up or polo type shirts for the guys. You will be in ports both of your full days so the onboard activities will be fairly limited but there will still be some for those who do not get off the ship.

Here is a great website which has loads of info including navigators for all the different cruises.

http://www.*******************/navigate.htm

Darn it! The link won't work. Just google Platinum Disney Club Disney Cruise Line Information

The activity sheets are called navigators and there will be a link on the main page for them.

Thanks everyone! DD is doing fine. Her body aches, she still has a big bump on her head, and she is having trouble eating, but otherwise ok. She is going to school tomorrow but no physical activity.

. It'll be so awesome to be able to tell everyone on Christmas morning that we're going on a cruise and I paid for it already!

I have to read up on everything about crusies. I don't get how everyone knows about theme nights and all that. I'm totally lost. I did take a Pirate Mickey clip art picture and add "Our First Cruise March 2010" on it to give as my surprise Christmas gift.

Thats great Dawn!! Does Kirt not know about the cruise portion? I would love it!!

Morning! Leo and I hit AK on Sat... and it was actually FUN! You know how I detest that place, but I think I found how we can best enjoy it: NO PLAN. For real, we just did stuff as we thought of it, wandered a lot and had a darned good time. It helped that it was hot-but-comfortable thanks to a good breeze.

I changed barns with Leo and have my first riding lesson at the new place tonight. Wish me luck - maybe I'll finally get to canter (go fast)!

Sounds like a terrific Day V!! How long is the drive to WDW for you? I think I remember something about 1 and a half to 2 hours? I hope you had a great time at the new lesson!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I wanted to let everyone know that Mel is home recovering on the couch. Bob expects she'll be sleeping off the massive amounts of drugs she was given to put the old girl under.

Love you , Mellie. I'm glad you're through the worst of it.

Thanks Dawn!! your a great friend to Mel!

I love that! I love having my hair fooled with, it's so relaxing!


I hit up Target this morning and got busted for trying to steal deodrant! I had my few things in the baby seat area, and I guess the deodrant fell down. When the girl put my bags in my cart, she asked me "Do you want those?" OMG, I was so embarrassed!!! She wasn't even nice about it. PUH-LEEZE! Like I need to steal deodrant! Andy thought it was hilarious.

Annie fixed my hair up tonite!! she brushed it. sprayed it with no mor tangles, brushed it some more. sprayed it with my Avon Body spray! and put 4 little clips on each side...she took a picture of me with my Blackberry! it will NOT get posted!!
Bad girl T on the Deoderant!!

Yay!

Hey you you're meant to stick up for me surely you used that saying


It's raining again, I was meant to play golf but called and cancelled, she wasn't happy and is still going to play if you get caught in the rain fair enough but to start in it is just silly!!!!! Em is arriving about lunch time with the boys and then I'm going to pick David up from work to go into London to watch the basketball. Jess has just texed me saying her friend is giving away kittens and can she have one

 

[askelton]

Jess has just texed me saying her friend is giving away kittens and can she have one

The answer is yes!

 

[DisneyJo]

The answer is yes!

are you volunteering to come and look after it when we go away? Potty train it? (well you know what I mean) ummm pay for vets etc etc?

 

[Muffinygood]

Thanks Dawn!! your a great friend to Mel!

Yes, she is. I love my Focker friends but Dawn holds a special spot. We're two of a kind.

Sorry you can't golf today. Tell Em we say hello. I'm so glad you get to visit more with her. We've had tons of rain here too. More today...

The answer is yes!

I love kittens. (UN)Fortunately, my boys are allergic....


*****
Hello. I'm alive and sort of well. Got a HUGE patch over my right eye. I'm seeing Dr. Seigel later today to have him remove the patch and see how he did. It hurts right now, but not unbearable.

It's nice to have NotBob around to help out. I'm just resting and drinking my coffee.

Hope everyone has a good day. Sorry didn't quote more than this current page, it's exhausting to read. Thank you to everyone who was sending good thoughts.

MEL

Thanks everyone! DD is doing fine. Her body aches, she still has a big bump on her head, and she is having trouble eating, but otherwise ok. She is going to school tomorrow but no physical activity.

So glad Slate!

Whyever not, it sounds lovely

I'm sorry but you had to get permission? You're not contagious you just can't see

Anytime we are out sick we have to call the Sickline. If I leave the house (to go to the doctor, grocery store, etc) I'm supposed to call too. (I forget....alot). It's something they put into place because there were people abusing the system, but in typical form instead of just dealing with those people we all get screwed!

We get 15 sick days per year. If we don't use them we can carry them over into the next year. WE can carry up to 200 days. WHen you retire, they give you cash for 30% of those days. It's a nice perk. However, you have those people who figure those sick days are extra vacation days. I know people who are there 25 years and don't have a sick day to their name.

I have been there 20 years (next month). I have been getting paid this entire time I have been out because, here's a novel concept, I use sick days for when we are sick!

Have fun with Em....No to the cat

==================

Good morning. Boys are off to school. I'm doing today. So, nothing real exciting. Jim has a meeting after school so I will pick Jimmy up from after school care and bring him home, do homework, etc. We are having leftovers for dinner so that's nice and easy

Hope everyone has a great day!
