WBRepo-Ship of Thieves-Remember the Magic Pt 20

[EllaEnchanted]

Thanks, Deb. That's funny...I thought about a cigarette the other day and it has been 15 years. Crazy! Never, never though. I will probably have a cigar on the cruise though. As to calling, maybe I am weird and it might not be "healthy", but I don't want to talk about it. Talking makes me cry and changes nothing.

It's been four years for me and when I'm stressed....when Ray was in the hospital and then passed....I want a cigarette to chill me out. Of course I didn't have one....I just took a deep breath and decided that I liked air more than nicotine in my lungs. But I missed it.

I have been known to smoke a Black and Mild cigar from time to time....no inhaling and not often, but it helps.

You do what you need to so that you get through this tough time. Just know that it is only temporary. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. More Hugs!!

DEB

I checked with the credit union this morning and the checks we have and are writing now are good until Sept 30 - so, no worries. Just deposit whenever you do all the others. Check is in the mail!!

Well that should be some good news for you. It gives you plenty of time to let the dust settle between the old and the new accounts. I'm going to go through the same thing when we move to Orlando. We will have to move everything too. I'm not looking forward to it.

hey ELLA

try OPEN OFFICE. its free it can read most if not all MS and WP files with no issues. it might even be able to recover the missing files if they are still on the laptop. 1 ? why no backup??????to a CD or external hard drive.....
tsk, tsk

Karl

Thanks Karl, I'll have John look into it....he's my IT guy.

I do have a back up on an external drive, but it's not current. Maybe a month or two old. I was going to back it up again recently, but didn't get to it yet.

Tonight I just noticed that all my pictures are not where they are supposed to be.

John reinstalled WP for me and it's working again. They messed with the paths that were set up. The files should still be here, but not accessible anymore. That's probably what happened to my pics too.

The good news is that the laptop works again....quickly and efficiently. So I don't need to buy a new one immediately. More money for BBCs onboard the Wonder next month.

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Deb...I think I just sent you money for CG Only 2nd time using paypal so let me know if I didn't send money

Got it Kathe....it worked beautifully. Hey, you'll be a techno pro before you know it. Paypal makes it very easy to send/receive money via internet. Thank you for being so generous. The bubbly will be flowing with the good response that we have had.

 

[EllaEnchanted]

did you send her canadian money?

Karl

hahaha....I'm sure she did, but by the time it arrives it converts itself. hahaha....too funny Karl.

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Thanks, Kathe. I just had a thought though, I had 2 daughters get married 10 months apart. Can I not handle THIS?? Piece of cake!

Two daughters' weddings just ten months apart....EEK!!!!

What doesn't kill us....makes us stronger. You can handle this!!! You'll be a better person for it.

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Doing the document dance today, finally. NOW I know I'm really going.

Packed accessories in the smaller suitcase this weekend. Now I just have bathroom bag and last minute stuff to pack. Now I just have to save up all my pennies so that I have plenty of money to buy turtle jewelry in Hawaii. hahaha.

Lisa G. sent me a link to a store that sells the Aloha turtle....when you hold it under the sun it says Aloha. How cool is that. I must have one.

That's NOTHING!!!

My mom had a bridal shower, nurses pinning, college graduation & wedding (my sisters...) , my graduation (high school) and my graduation party in ONE month!!! (and she's been drinking ever since... )

 

[Tink rules]

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Then my oldest brother got married the following April so add another shower and another wedding.... (I think she went gray around then... )

Holy Moley....all in one month????? That's a good strong woman who went broke....hahaha.

This credit union is in Oregon. We did not change when we moved here just to avoid the hassle. Now we will move it to something local since we have to make all the changes anyway.

That's NOTHING!!!

Spent the day on the telephone trying to get things done and after many hours, I got nothing done!

I hate when that happens and it happens more often than not lately. I think customer service is a thing of the past.

I've been busy collecting money for the CGs since DCL called and said no money changes hands onboard. It's crazy because I have to look on the DIS thread, PMs, FB Aloha thread, FB PMs and emails....so many people that you have to match their husbands names sometimes with their first names and their dis names.....it gets complicated.

I have 94 ladies attending including myself. I have yet to hear from 21 of them.....oh and I have not heard anything from Cheri, Jackie/Pam and Monica. But they can just buy me BBCs.....hahaha.

Karl

So very true. hahaha.

Here's where the Thieves are having dinner on Sat night before boarding on our cruise:

http://www.22ndstlandingrestaurant.com/


It looks like a great place. Gydell already made ressies there and we didn't even know it when Tracy picked it out and we decided to go there. IT'S A SMALL WORD...........

Tracy is making a 6pm ressie for 14 and requesting that we sit next to the Gydell party.

We have yet to hear from everyone confirming that they're going, but booking for more and having less show up is easier than vice versa. So Tracy is going ahead and taking care of it for us. Thanks Trace!!!

YAY!!! Thieves reunion dinner on the Left Coast....haha!!

If DCL keeps doing worldly adventures out of LA we'll be seeing a lot of our west coast friends.

I have to wait until I get paid on Friday

Not a problem....we have over 4 weeks. Do it when you can or you can just buy me a BBC. I'll be seeing you onboard!!!

That really is not too bad, only 21 out of 94 and it's only been a few days.

True! Now I just have to make sure that DCL can accommodate 95 ladies in a venue. Otherwise, I'll have to cut off some people and refund their money. That will be a disaster. But DCL is one of those people that I spent the day on the phone with and got no where. Tomorrow is another day. We'll see what happens. Wish me good luck!
