Wild Turkeys and Dancing Banana Heads Cruise 11/25/06

[jd99]

Our flight was changed so we should be in Orlando till around 3:30 pm. So dinner at 5 o'clock sounds great if that is okay??

We get in a bit later, but if you are all confabbing in the hotel somewhere, we'll find you!

My dh found this little gem . . .
http://www.talklikeapirate.com/

HE is . . .
"Profile: Some men and women are born great, some achieve greatness and some slit the throats of any scallawag who stands between them and the mantle of power. You never met a man - or woman - you couldn't eviscerate. Not that mindless violence is the only avenue open to you - but why take an avenue when you have complete freeway access? You are the definitive Man of Action. You are James Bond in a blousy shirt and drawstring-fly pants. You are Charlie's Angels without so much "Charlie" and decidedly light on the "Angel." Your swash was buckled long ago and you have never been so sure of anything in your life as in your ability to bend everyone - Man, Woman or Individual of Transgender or indecipherable Sexual Identification - to your will. You will call anyone out and cut off their head if they show any sign of taking you on or backing down. You cannot be saddled with tedious underlings, but if one of your lieutenants shows an overly developed sense of ambition he may find more suitable accommodations in Davy Jones' locker. That is, of course, IF you notice him. You tend to be self absorbed - a weakness that may keep you from seeing enemies where they are and imagining them where they are not."

Who IS this guy and what has he done with my husband?

I just finished watching on animal planet steve irwin memorial....it was sooo sad. His daughter gave a little speach and she did so well. But the show was very sad. He was a little for lack of a better term out there but I thought he was interesting.

Just keeping us bumped up.

Good Morning to you all ,
Well it was a horrible night last night. I was sick( I hope not from my own cooking ) and then DS thought at 1am it was time to get up and play. So you know that I will be stopping my Dunkin Donuts to get some coffee to wake me up!! I am totally wiped out. Well I am going to feed DS his bottle and cereal. Today we are off to the go shopping with my sister-in-law and niece. I plan to start my x-mas shopping or maybe so me shopping !!


Everyone: Anybody else want to link ressies for dinner foor the EARLY seating?? Please PM or e-mail.

Kathy: How are the dogs doing?

 

[TIGGER41681]

Here is a few more for you Kathy !!

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Good morning all,
well I have been up since 3:30 a.m. but just now posting. My head clogged up so I couldnt sleep.
It was still rainy this morning, and suppose to be clearing off this afternoon, which means the dogs can take DH for a nice long walk this evening.

We have worn out 3 balls so far. My right bicep is at least 3 inches larger from throwing the ball so much!!
Poncho doesnt want to eat now, even hand feding isnt working. he is missing Randy. i have got him to eat a few milk bones but that is it. Randy will be back late friday so it wont be much longer for him.

I still havnt decided on my door signs for sure, but still thinking about it.
Lets keep lots of posts coming today so we can make the 4000 mark,

Kathy

We get in a bit later, but if you are all confabbing in the hotel somewhere, we'll find you!

Just look for some !!!!!!

Our only "time constraint" on Friday afternoon is watching the Nebraska/Colorado game. Hopefully by 5:00, the Huskers will be totally dominating the game and we won't have to worry about the outcome.

Good morning everyone!

Another chilly morning here in IL -- currently 39 degrees. Brrrrrrrrr! At least the sun's out!

Watched Dancing with the Stars last night and I actually voted!!! Somebody save me!!

Speaking of Christmas shopping -- I was placing an order through Quill (office supplies) yesterday and I noticed they have all kinds of "free" gifts if you order particular items. Is it wrong to do Christmas shopping by "re-gifting" the freebies???!!!! For example, I'll be receiving a 7-piece spa set because I ordered printer cartridges! Just think, I could get all my shopping done and stock up on office supplies to last for 20 years!

Better get moving -- hope you all have a great day!

Good Morning Everyone!

Shell: That was great. I just wish I had seen it yesterday!

Today is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL in Georgia. Low this morning in the mid-50s and high today in the mid-70s. Now that's what I'm talking about!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful week! It is extremely busy at work, but I am sooooo looking forward to Friday. DW and I decided to take Friday off from work. We have the Ga. Tech game tomorrow night, and then we will go to the Brad Paisley concert on Friday night. If things work out, we may have backstage passes for the concert on Friday. A friend who used to attend our church is now singing back-up for Carrie Underwood while she works on her own album. If she ends up coming to the Atlanta show, she said she would arrange for the backstage passes for us. The funny thing is, I am more exicited about the opportunity to see Cheree' again that Carrie Underwood or Brad Paisley! She has a beautiful voice. So, watch for the name Cheree' Bebout at a record store near you soon!

Have an AWESOME Wednesday everyone!

Good morning Banana Heads

Cold, rainy and ugly here in Ohio. I think we need to change the lyrics to "California Dreamin'..." to "Disney Cruise Line dreamin' ..."

My Fantasy Football team is 1-1. You know what this means?! My record is better than the Browns at this point!

But more importantly, it's time to Wednesday Morning Quarterback Dancing with the Stars . OK, Joey was awesome , I'm still impressed with Springer (not bad for an old guy), Emmit was so-so for me. A couple of the girls (Willa and Shanna) seemed slow to me compared to the music and their partners. Mario is just good to look at no matter what he does on the dance floor!

Kathy, can't wait to see those guns you're building from all that ball playing! Guido was a ball player all his life until a few months ago. That's when THE ball died (he's had it since he was like 2) and he refuses to even look at another ball ... even though Mommy bought the exact same one and Daddy scuffed it up with power tools, soaked it in his water dish, tore pieces out to give it that "lived in" look ... (have I ever mentioned that Guido's a spoiled rotten little dog?! I wonder who did that to him? ). Anyhoo, life just isn't the same without THE ball.

Let's get some posts in here today!!! And some more Bananas!!!

 

[cindalu]

Hi everyone,
I am doing okay today. This is my Friday. I only work for a couple of days a week. My daughter had a good day yesterday.

I hope you all have a great weekend.

Good Morning Everyone

Well the sun is shining again here today in NJ We also started in the 50's and will reach the low 70's today. I LOVE this weather!

Lucinda - sending hugs your way!

Steve and family - know that you are in my thoughts and prayers while you await the results.

Shell - my DH and brother have been in a fantasy league for about 4 years now. I help with it also. They have fun doing it but aren't very good unfortunately. Although they have started out 1-1 also!

Lynn - I truly do feel your pain with DS's no sleeping. Hang on..it will get better - I promise!

Think of me today if you will...I've decided to start a new group at my Church and we meet for the first time today. The focus of our group is helping each other stay grounded while raising our kids!!! We even have some Mom's joining us who are Grandma's and Great Grandma's. I LOVE their input.

Did I mention that I CAN"T WAIT FOR OUR CRUISE!!! Ok there, got that off my chest .

Have a great day everyone!

morning everyone....I'm at work and really shouldnt be on...just wanted to help with our count and say morning....be back this evening.


Denise

 

[disneediva]

Hi all,
I am off today so I am having a me day. I will go get a pedicure and go out to lunch with some friends.

Lucinda, I am glad your DD is doing well we are sending you lots of

Kelly good luck with your group. I am sure it will go well

Shell, I watched the Stars last night too and thought that young girl Monique I think is her name did very well, but I still remain an Emmett fan he just reminds me of a big ole teddy bear.

Ahhh speaking of which we have a build a bear from hen DS was like 4 and even though he out grew it, it remains in my office at home. Well I bought him a pirate outfit for the cruise. I figured Mikey went on DS first cruise he can come on this one too.

Kathy, Disney our dog will play fetch with anything you throw to him sometimes I have to throw it far just so I can get back in the door to the house.

Bob, it was cool here this morning too I actually worked in the garden briefly when I got home from dropping DS off at school.

Wendy

 

[TiggerKing]

Wendy: It was so nice last night that Lisa and I got out and I cut the grass in the backyard while she pulled weeds. We then took the dogs for a ride to go and buy them some dry food. We drove with the windows down the entire time, which made the labs happy.

The youngest, Lulu, has actually been able to learn that the button on the door has something to do with her window. If I don't roll it down fast enough, she will start scratching at the button. Of course, this is the same dog who tells us at 9:30 that it is her bed time and so we must all go to the bedroom or she gets antsy!

Speaking of finicky dogs, the two labs are hilarious. I spend the money to buy them Pedigree brand dry food, and you have to practically force it down their throat to get them to eat it. DW even went so far as to put canned chicken broth on their dry food to get them to eat it. So last night, we go to PetSmart and buy the store brand dog food. They woofed it down like it was prime rib!

 

[JanDave]

Morning All Heads!!!

The sun was out briefly this morning in mid-Michigan. Turned on my Jimmy Buffet CD to keep me in cruise (as in DCL) mode while driving to work.

Kathy -- Aren't you cruising on the Magic this Saturday? Can't wait to hear about this cruise when you get back.

Cindy - Glad your daughter had a great day!!!

Have a great day!

Jan

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Jan,
wish I was going again this saturday!!
But we changed that cruise to the 8/5 cruise we just took. we did that so we could take DD and grandkids with us.

Wendy,
Poncho will fetch anything you throw too. If it is laying around he will pick it up and drop at your feet or in your lap, then just sit and stare at it until you throw it. He can sit for several minutes that way, then he starts to cry, then howl, then bark if you dont respond.

Minnie knows our routine at night too and if we vary from it or dont move along quick enough she lets us know to hurry up. then once we are ready for bed we have to stop by her bed and give an ear scratching and a belly rub or she will bug you to death!! In the morning if one person gets up before the other one she will wake the other person up with a cold nose, wet tongue and lots of crying until both are up.
we can even have one person upstairs and one downstairs or she goes nuts running up and down the stairs until we are both on the same floor.

At least both dogs are napping right now, after 2 hours of playing fetch they better be pooped, now I can relax some, I hope!!


Lucinda,
glad to hear yesterday was a better day.

Steve, Esther, Pat,
still thinking good thoughts for all of you guys!


Shell,
when you find the person who spoiled your dog rotton, let me know. He seems to of come to my house too when I wasnt looking. I need to have a talk with him or her?? Our dog has more treats than we do and so many toys it is like when we had babies in the house. MESSY!!!

will talk with you guys later, I'm going to relax while the quiet lasts,

Kathy
