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

[woogal]

Thanks for the review, Kathy! I'm sure Minnie will not let you out of her sight now! Did you ever go over to Piglet's Pantry in downtown Mt. Dora?? You really should take a look at it ... you'll go crazy!

So fellow Banana Heads , I have a confession to make. I really wasn't into this whole "let's all dress up like a pirate" talk for the longest time. Then, lo and behold, I told Bill a few weeks ago, "Hey, let's rent POC so I can see what the whole fuss is about." Well, since that viewing, I have a new obsession -- putting together my "perfect" pirate outfit! (OK gals, you'll understand this: 1/2 the outfit from Kohls, 1/2 from Target!) I just spent the entire afternoon working on my accessories while OUTSIDE -- in the driveway! -- and watching POC again on my portable DVD.

Do we really have to wait another 3 months???

Have a great, quick week!!!

Good morning everyone!!!

Well we finally got a good amount of rain last evening. That is the most we have had all summer. We normally have rain like that everyday in the summer. I am really glad to have it. Now we need to empty some water out of the pool.
We are not up to much today. Our company will be here for another 2 weeks. They are still asleep. I think they are still pooped from the cruise. I think 2 a.m. was the earliest they ever got back to their cabin.
I am off tot he post office to mail off some castaway cay shorts I bought for another dis board lady and that is my only goal for the day.

Shell, I have not been to that store yet. We are pretty close to Eustis so I will check it out. I am still learning what is in my immediate area.

Bill, I dont know if people are tired of hearing about our cruise, I dont let them get a word in when I am talking so they cant complain about it!!
Minnie likes to hear me talk to her about it, she listens very intently and never complains.

have a great Monday everyone,
Kathy

Kathy, Loved your report!

I see lots of things I want to try - if we can manage to stay awake long enough, last cruise seemed to be spent napping.

Good Monday morning everyone.....

Kathy, great pictures. The one of you and Greg is really a nice picture.
Your GD looks just like her mom. Very pretty, and very purple!!

Well, I have to get my butt in gear and start tackling my cleaning jobs that I want to accomplish for today. So I will be back tonight and see what's going on.

Oh Kathy, I forgot...DH and I went out to dinner the day you left and I missed the Magic leaving. However, I'm glad to hear that your safe and there was no diving off the ship....


Later
Denise

My DD thinks that she is sleeping in...little does she know that I put my CD's and crank the radio when I'm working..... I guess that's one way of getting her up and to help her old mom...

Well today was a bonus day. My supervisor is off for the next two weeks so working for the brilliant hospital that I do they put me in charge for the next 2 weeks . So I get up and go in this morning and their were no patients on the schedule so guess who got to come home at 830 this morning.

Kathy great pics I was I was brave like your daughter, I know I seem shy on the boards but I really do like attention sometimes

[TiggerKing]

Happy Monday Everybody!

I hope that everyone is having a great Monday, at least as great as a Monday can be!

Ron, where did you guys go camping at that you did your "cliff" diving? That looked like a really pretty area!

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

We had Pikey sightings all over the ship!!!

That guy never sleeps and is always full of energy.

It back to being Humid and Hot here in NY not fun!! Tomorrow me and DS go to our 1st Mommy and me class. Let you know how it goes. Well Good Night everyone. I am going to relax a little and then head to bed!!

Good evening everyone. Well just any FYI if anyone is interested....I'm having a hot flash..!!!

So I did get some of my cleaning projects done today. So tomorrow is another day and I have a few more projects planned. Great way to spend a week of vacation.

Well DH just had a "moment" with the two dogs. They get along pretty good until we give them a chew. Well my dog Jack, always gets a chew after dinner. So naturally he was waiting at the pantry door for his chew. (now I know that I shouldnt as this causes...shall I say a little problem) But I also dont want to change his routine since Louie is here. So I gave them each a chew. Well this started the barking, which they do, when they get the chews. They sit there and just keep barking??? So DH flew up out of his chair, grabbed the chews and put them away. Well Jack (my dog) is like what the heck??!! Now he is over here looking, like what the heck did you do with my chew....
Well they have finally settled down, I have a dog on each side of me just lying there. We'll see how the rest of the evening goes. (this is going to be a very looong year)

Have a great evening everyone.....

Good morning,
Denise it sounds like you have your hands full with 2 dogs!

My son brought his lab, Poncho over saturday afternoon when he came to visit. Minnie has never been socialized with other animals yet, we had our hands full for an hour or so!!!!
Poncho totally ignored Minnie while she whoofed and snarled. he just wagged his tail and jumped into the pool to cool off.
When ever he came by us for attention Minnie went nuts, we had to hold her tightly on her leash and talk and comfort her for ever it seemed.
Finally she realized he wasnt a threat or someone to be jealous of.
Then she drove that poor OLD dog nuts. She wanted to play like any young dog, by running and jumping around. She jumped over him a few times, ran circles around him and sniffed of his ears and mouth dozens of times. Poncho is a few years old and a BIG dog, way over 100 pounds, he DOESNT do puppy play. It was quite an afternoon around here.
If there was a market for dog hair I would be king of the industry!!!!

Today I am off to the movies with Marie and the grandkids.
Hope everyone has a great day.

Lynn, i just finished reading back posts and saw the picture of DS, he is just so cute, cant wait to see him in person!!!

Happy Tuesday Everyone!

Kathy: I enjoyed the trip reports. Sounds like you guys really had a great time. I wonder how long it will be before the GKs trust anything you and DH say....

I guess I need to make final payment sometime soon since we make ressies in just under 2 weeks! I am SOOOOOO excited. I really need a vacation right now! (there he goes AGAIN)

 

[Dixielady908]

Kathy, have a great time today. I just have some more cleaning to do and some grocery shopping. That's my exciting day today.

I know about the hair thing with the dogs...Jack is a doberman and Louie is a terrier both short hair dogs. However, the piles of hair I sweep up a day is crazy. Anyway, I have faith that this will work out ok.

Have a great day everyone...

Hey Bob...I ran into some of your friends on my walk yesterday morning. I walk near a historical farm in our area and every year they hold a re-enactment of a civil war battle. I was stopped by a garrison of confederate troops moving acrossed a path. I told them that we would soon be moving towards Atlanta and that they WOULD respect OUR author-ata.
Anyways...
Have a great Sunday, everyone....
Stay cool.

Just remember, we may have lost the war of northern aggression, but we took a few yankees down with us, so you better be careful!

Mutt: Why does your sig line now have dancing monkeys? Are you trying to confuse people even more?

 

[dkmjgal]

Hi Everyone! I would like to introduce myself and my family to you all. We are the Gallagher's - Kelly, Don, Megan (10-11 at the time of sailing) and John (7) We will be sailing on this cruise and we can't wait. This will be our 3rd Disney cruise. The first was in 2003 - 4 day Wonder, the 2nd was 2005 - 7 day Western and now we get to do the Eastern. My DH booked this cruise while on the last cruise.
From the few posts I've read from this thread it looks like there won't be any shortage of fun from this group
We look forward to getting to know you all.

Kelly

 

[cruisemutt]

HI Kelly & Welcome! I believe the standard answer to what you've written is "We're a pretty tame bunch". UNFORTUNATELY..... I'm the first to respond to your post and I guess a lot of people on this board see me as a bit of a loonie (you may hold your tongue---Wendy, Bob, MY WIFE.....and the rest of ya....). Its all lies....uh.....everything!

Now how did those get there????

Anyways...welcome aboard!

Hey Bob...its not to confuse anyone...I just thought it was more interesting than white boxes with little white boxes in them with little red x's in them...its a northern thing, my friend...worry not!

Have a great evenin everyone!!

Hello Fellow Nanas:

I've been off the DIS boards for a couple of weeks as our WV kids were here and then work gets in the way of my DIS time. I've spent some of my evening catching up on our thread.

WELCOME Steve (sptweedle), Katie (kt7491) and Kelly (dkmjgal)! So glad you and your families are joining us on the Magic.

Lynn - your little guy is so cute! Grandchild #6 (Samantha who is 7 weeks old) will be baptized in a couple of weeks.

Our friends, Bob and Gitta, Dave and I will be having dinner and brunch at Palo. Besides signing Dave up for a fishing trip on CC, Palo is a must do for him.

Kathy: Glad you had a wonderful week on the Magic. Did you go to the crew talent show Friday night? I have a DVD from a 2005 performance. That is another must do -- the crew talent show.


Have a great week everyone.

Jan
