Nan- I think that snow is going to hit us on the way to you- yuck- I agree!!

Sunshineminnie- Enjoy your cruise!! It will be great!! We are going to Harry Potter at US for the first time during our trip too! I am a super excited muggle!

Jennifer- Good luck with the job

Cheryl- Sorry to hear about your FIL

Everyone else- How about a dancing banana


Worked today and came home exhausted. Started to get ready for an out of town trip this weekend with my fam to see the in-laws when my bff called. There was a last minute opportunity for us to go together to a hotel scrapbook convention weekend for about $50 total for hotel room and group conference room for a two night, three day weekend (cheap because of last minute cancellations and confusion). So talked to DH and he said he would take the kids to his parents house by himself so I could go scrapbook for the whole weekend. Plus my bff's hubs and my dh have this golf expo all next weekend so I do not feel too guilty. I feel more guilty about missing my in-laws but my MIL was cool with it. Sorry that was so much to read but I am excited Now I have to run to do laundry and pack for two different trips with no pre-kitted layouts ready

Oh yes! I forgot to update you guys!! After spending several hours on hold, on the phone, and leaving tons of messages with every state and department agency we could think of (we also kept getting transferred because everyone kept passing the buck and said that wasn't covered by their department), we finally got a return call yesterday from OFAC. They said that sometimes if there are so many matching letters in a name and numbers in a social security # that it shows up as a possible hit. Well the man from panama's name was Michael which is very close to Michelle, last names were very close, and apparently our ss #s were very close too. So it was a 95% match which shows up as a hit on the OFAC report. So we had to contact reporting credit agencies to notify them of the situation. All departments we talked to like dept of treasury and social security, assured as that my social security number itself has not been jeopardized. So we are hoping that this correct. Hopefully lost time and a delay on the minivan purchase will be the only bad thing to come of this, because nothing else appears to have been tampered with. We did finally get the minivan!!! Whew
