Good morning Banana Heads :banana: :banana: :banana:

OK, first of all, let's make this perfectly clear (and all you married ladies will understand this) ... Bill does not "make" me do anything unless I permit it :rotfl2:. But, regardless, I've done some soul searching and figured that since we're going to all be living together for 7 nights, it was time to come clean and give up our source. We get our nana smilies at http://www.funfilesandsmiles.com/smileys/banana.htm. If you go to the Smilies page, you'll find a bunch more in different categories. It's a gold mine, so to speak. :goodvibes Whew! I feel so much better! :woohoo:

Linda: DSW is TOTAL shoes ... the SHOE UNIVERSE ... the HOLY GRAIL OF SHOES ... SHOE HEAVEN :cloud9: . I stand at the entrance and weep at the beauty of it all when I first enter. But alas, yesterday was a bust. I perused the aisles for about an hour, found some that I liked but did not purchase anything :guilty: . Maybe next time (and I'm sure there will be a next time!).

As far as Bill's shoe buying experience ... I am rolling my eyes just thinking about it :rolleyes2 ... I took him to DSW for his first time at the end of June to find dress shoes to go with his suit. We walk in, I stop him cold in his tracks and say, "OK, let me explain how this place works. Go all the way in the back for the clearance items, up to 80% off, depending on the sticker color. You may not find anything there, but check anyway. I'll be on the other side of the store looking at women's shoes." Not 10 MINUTES later, he comes back. "OK, I'm done." (I ask you, who can buy shoes in 10 minutes???). I look at them ... they're perfect ... beautiful black dress shoes, high quality. He found them on the clearance rack:

Original retail price: $199
Clearance discount: 80%
Wife's gift card: $10
Final price: $15
Disgusted/jealous look on wife's face: Priceless :sad2:

Have a great Sunday!
 
Good Sunday Morning To You All :banana: :banana: :banana: ,

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. It's a another nice sunny :sunny: :sunny: :sunny: here in NY. We went shopping yesterday at the mall pixiedust: pixiedust: pixiedust: . I Love shopping :thumbsup2 !!!

LindaBabe :cheer2: : DSW is a GREAT :thumbsup2 :thumbsup2 store for shoes. It's is a heaven of shoes :cloud9: :cloud9: :cloud9: !!! My favorite store along with Kohl's. The prices are REALLY reasonable too :cool1: :cool1: .

Enjoy your weekend!!
Talk to you tomorrow!!

:blush: Ok Bill, I wasnt mad. I just was wondering how the heck you get all these fantastic dancin nana's..... I have tried taking off our pop-up blocker and even disabled the fire wall will not let me to page two of the smiley faces...its no big deal I can live with that. I did go to the thread and found some really good dancin nana's and I will be using them...so beware... :rotfl:


Well my DD left at 5am this morning...driving back to Colorado. It was very sad, :sad2: as I will not see her for a year. I know that I will be able to talk with her and even e-mail her, but sometimes that just isnt the same. Anyway, just getting things cleaned up around here and relaxing the rest of the day. Back to work tomorrow. :crazy: Plus I have to work the "later" shift till 8pm I really hate that shift.

Well take care, I shall be back later so we can celebrate my 500th post....yes I know, I am making a big deal over this.... :dance3:

I know, I have Way too much time on my hands :rolleyes1

Here's a few to add to it,

Happy Sunday to all my cruising turkey nana heads. Hard to believe that next Sunday morning at 3am is the majic hour for us repeaters to make ressies. I don't plan to stay up until 3am -- I'll go to bed at my usual 9pm and wake up at 2:30 am. Sounds boring, huh???!!! But, on the ship I never go to bed before midnight. So, you'll have to put up with me at Rockin Bar D, Promenade, adult pool, deck 4, etc. each night.

Anyone making Palo brunch ressies for Sunday? That's my target day for brunch. I hesitate making Palo dinner ressies until after night 3 on the cruise as I don't want Bob and Gitta to miss any of the restaurant activities. Of course, when we board the ship, I have to make sure Anne Marie will be our server at Palo as she is Dave's reason to be on the Magic!!!

Just talked to our friends, Bob and Gitta, who are crusiing with us. She just said yes to Palo brunch and dinner, and fishing for the guys on CC.

Has anyone cruised with Glindamood and her family? We met Gail and David before our 9/18/04 Magic (Hurricane Jeanne got in our way though) cruise. They live in northern Michigan. Gail just emailed and they'll be in our area of Michigan next Saturday. Can't wait to see them. They would have cruised with us this yeear but they're going on the 11 day Wonder in four weeks.

Denise: Big hugs to you and your daughter. Keep us posted about how she is doing.

CruiseMutt: Two drinks and I am usually sound asleep. You may find me out on deck 4 sleeping in a lounge chair each day. So ---- until our cruise, I'll just have weak tea each night......

Athene -- hope you're feeling better. Be a prima donna today and have everyone at your beck and call. None of us can get injured or sick before our cruise! Our friend, Bob, is always having problems -- dental problems, minor injuries, etc. Gitta doesn't promise to keep Bob healthy for our cruise, but she promises that she'll still cruise with us even if Bob can't.

Have a great rest of the day. Jan
 
:) Ok Kathy, I thought I was the only person that had way too much time on her hands.....Well with your new additional nanans we are up to 1571.


Ok this is it....the big one....my 500th post.....I do belive I hear fireworks!!!!


Have a great afternoon everyone...

Denise :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: (1575)

:rolleyes: Gee Kathy put the pressure on. I was thinking maybe 600 or a little over. :teeth: I am a very quite and shy person with not much to say..... :rolleyes1 go ahead and ask anyone that knows me... :rotfl: :rotfl2:


Denise :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: (1590)
 
argh! in a bad mood right now. trying to get the wdw trip set up for dave's family is a pain in the banana! to make a long story short we must do EVERYTHING together (9 people) and it is obvioulsy the week of thanksgiving and they think that we can get dinner ressies for ALL of us TOGETHER ANYWHERE THEY WANT!!!!!! indeed not the case but whatever! i have all the dinner ressies done however im sure they will want to change them. after i got all that done i called to change the flight home for dave and i and they said you need to buy new tickets b/c this is a group rate and you are breaking up the group. his parents refuse to cancel the ressies so now we have to spend extra money on a one way ticket home. argh!!!!! also the group rate is for 10 people (we originally had 12 people not counting me) and alas, they all cancelled. so now im stuck paying for some group ticket "discount" that i didnt even sign up for and a one way ticket! argh!!!!!! at least there is the cruise after the wdw trip. so if we break up while in wdw were sure to get back together on the cruise! sorry had to rant and rave.
 
Good morning :sunny:


Runa,
I know what you are talking about.
we have one stead fast rule when vacationing with a lot of people., everytone goes their own way and does their own thing and we meet up at dinner only!!! Then we share stories of our day.
If we happen to be doing the same thing by coincidence that is ok, but we are all on our own and everyone has a great time!!!

I know if we had to be everywhere others wanted to be, we wouldnt go, because we would be miserable. I figure as much money as it costs we should get to do what we want to do.

That is easier said than done, I know.


Denise,
I have over 2000 posts and i am very quiet too :rotfl2:
If I can do it, so can you. :thumbsup2


Have a good day everyone,
Kathy :wave:

I wish you the best.
 
:sunny: Good Monday Morning:

Runa sorry to hear about making all these traveling plans. I love to plan also...I think thats part of the fun. However, in 2000 went to Disney with my two sisters their spouses and another couple so a total of 8. What we did was get together a few times and make plans. We did pretty much stay together, but we also knew what the others wanted to do and see. So we all decided to do what the other ones wanted. Which in the long run we all got to what we wanted and did what the other couples wanted and we had the best time. It will be a trip that I will remember. My two sisters and I would take pictures of the three of us at different spots, then we picked the best picture bought a nice Disney frame and gave it to my Dad for Chirstmas. I think that was the best gift we could have given him.

I just hope things work out well for you and your traveling party, hope you have a nice Thanksgiving at WDW.

Kathy: I'll will give this my best shot, however, you all may just get plain tired of hearing from me. :rotfl: So beware!!!!! :rotfl2: (you know how we shy people are)

Well going start getting ready for work now. :crazy: I really dont want to go back, from what I understand, I have a desk full of work. Thats the only problem when I take off, I'm the only one who knows my job and hardly nothing gets done. Oh well, I just have to look at it like, I had a really nice week off, so this is the price I pay. :rolleyes1

Have a great day everyone. I will be back this evening when I get home. Yes this is a threat. :rotfl: :lmao:

Denise :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: (1594)
 
Well folks, it was a disappointing weekend. The concert tickets didn't show up at my connection's house. Odds are that her company probably sent them to her desk at work, and they will arrive today. So, no Kenny Chesney for me over the weekend!

But, we did yard work and cleaned the garage on Saturday, so at least we accomplished something. Also, without the concert last night, it was not as hard to get up this morning. It was still hard, just not AS hard! :rotfl2:

I hope everyone is having a great Monday and has a great week! Remember, set your alarms for Sat. Night/Sun. Morning so you can get those ressies!
 
Hi everyone,
kinda mediocre weekend here too, with bright intervals. blah and rainy. did laundry, cleaned bathrooms, helped some friends move. went out to dinner. did grocery shopping.went to a birthday party at build-a-bear, and bought my bear, Dimples, some new clothes. I guess it was fun in spite of being gray. And I was resting up from last weeks trip to Erie, anyway.

Sunday is the day, right? What day are you trying for brunch?
 
I'm not proud....I'm gonna eat brunch every day!! (probably breakfast, second breakfast, tweenzies, supper and snacks too). :teeth:
 
The time is growning near to a sea of green shirts. Is there anyone that wants to add an order, before I turn it in to the printer?

Hey everyone,
Another day closer, man I can't wait to get on that "banana boat" in Nov. Our secretary has been gone for about a week and we are starting to feel the pain!
By the way, a special thanks to Kathy :wave2: for all the hints she has been passing on to my mom, they've been very helpful.

:banana: :banana: :banana:

Hey Lynn, cute pic - that kid looks hilarious...every time I see a pic he looks like he's saying 'are YOU talkin to ME?' (Taxi Driver anyone LOL).

Nice weekend up here. After my lame-o Friday night we went out on Saturday - and left GRampy to watch DS. Well, we didn't get back home until about 5:30am. Can you say PAINFUL SUNDAY!!!!!! :crazy:
Oh well, those are few and far between!!

All is well here. Nothing much new or exciting. I think I've gotten pretty much everything together for DSs first day of school. Backpack, pencils, pencil box, uniform (well most of it) and lunch stuff (kinda). I think (OK, I know) I'm more nervous than he is LOL!

I have to get going to my riding lesson tonight, but I'll try and catch up again tomorrow.
:wave: :banana:

PS - I booked a Couples Spa Villa for Monday, Palo High Tea for Thursday and Palo Dinner for Friday. We left out Brunch this time as I am weird and need breakfast food at breakfast and lunch food at lunch and in that order. I can't combine (I know cookoo, cookoo :dance3: )
