DWtS: So, when does this travesty end so that According to Jim and George Lopez will be back on TV?

Shell, you didn't have to put in ALL the steps to the spa visit...you could have just said "spa visit"!

2. Get out birth certificates
3. Wrap 4yr old GD's birthday gifts
4. Wrap X-mas gifts (I'm done shopping)
5. Put up few Christmas decorations and wall tree (yes, I got a wall tree much to Dave's insistence that we NEED a regular tree. Too bad, Dave). I'll let you know how it looks, will take a picture of it.
6. Hair cut and color on 11/18

11. Refill prescriptions
12. Make changes to WDW dinner ressies (11/24)

I'll add nos. 13-50 within the next week.

dont forget extra batteries for your camera or a charger for your cam corders too. Extra memory stick for camera??

I think the biggest thing not to forget for everyone who is going will be your sense of humor I think there is going to be a lot of disers on this cruise!!!

4. Wrap X-mas gifts (I'm done shopping)

This is a sign of a sick, sick, sick person. EVERYONE knows that you must be out shopping on Christmas Eve in order for everything to feel right!

Jan, if you check out the thread Staples Water you will see that Staples is calling them and saying DCL will not allow them to deliver water to the ship. I guess it infringes on their potential profits from the water packages. Sorry!

Well, I guess that's one item off my 'to do' list.

1. Decide on contents of gift basket for DH (National Geo had travel 'flippers' and snorkle gear in their catalog. Do I want it?)
2. order said basket.
3. Order stateroom flowers
4. cancel shipboard facial and book one before we go.
5. Try on dressy clothes to make sure they still fit.
6. Buy regional gift.
7. Pack box to ship to resort
8. decide what to take for villa from home (coffee. . .)
9. call credit card company to let them know we're traveling
10. fill out online form to hold mail
11. create packing list
12print Christmas card address labels, mousekeeping envelopes and tip envies.
13 create door sign
14 find santa hats and other seasonal gear for villa/stateroom
15 find shoebag and hooks -

Hey TiggerKing -- I'm not a sick, sick, sick person -- just a successful multi tasking, organized female!!! You can ask Dave what his opinion is. He's lived through my multi tasking for almost 23 years. Do you do your Christmas shopping at Rite Aid, Walgreens, etc. the afternoon of 12/24?

Enjoy the rest of the afternoon.

Actually, I am normally at Wal-Mart or Target on 12/24 to do my shopping, and maybe Hallmark if they have anything I like!

Honestly, this is a tradition that I have had for myself for most of my life. I actually enjoy being out amongst the crowds on 12/24. Since I am now married, my Christmas Eve shopping is primarily for stocking stuffers for DW's stocking. I will have already seen them and know what I want to buy, but I wait until then to do it. Of course, part of it may be a guilty pleasure in watching all the people who are shopping for MAJOR gifts on Christmas Eve and seeing the stress on their faces!

Hey Tiggerking,

THANKYOU for posting the link to my thread on the XOP poll thread!!!

I appreciate it!!!

Your a good neighbor. ( neighbor to be) or your trying to get DCL even more upset with me so they wont let me on board and then you wont have to worry about moving to the other end by Bill and Shell

Thanks,
Kathy

Good Evening All,
Okay so I got to the Mall with my friend and her twin boys!! Got DS a cute Gap shirt. Went to Babies R Us and got this Ocean Wonders thing for the crib!! I am hoping it works !! Have to go back to the Mall tomorrow because I didn't get to do two stores because the twins needed to eat. Well not a big deal because I have to go to the school where I work for a quick meeting so it is 2 minutes from there. Well I am off to cook dinner. Talk to you all later!!

Kathy: I am brave to take on 3 kids under 6 months!! I worked at a Day Care for 2 years so I am used to kids. I have to do it every other week. It is a big help to me because either her or I can afford the day care around here .


Okay Here is my To do list a month before the cruise :

* Get diapers and formula enough for a week
* Make sure DS stuff is all make along with mine and DH
* Get to Walmart to get Beauty stuff and travel size stuff
* Get Minnie the cat packed up and ready to go to the in-laws
* Iron Dress Shirts- Take Capri Pants to Cleaners
* Stop Mail and Paper
* Decorate house for Christmas
*Get haircut and Pedicure
* Get DS Christmas Pictures Done at Picture People
* Pack Diaper bag/ Get Lightweight Stroller out of storage
* Get snacks for plane ride for DS and Me and DH
* Call Car Service to get us to Airport
* write down flight info for My Mom and Mother-In-Law
* Get BC's and DL's together and a Debit Card and Credit Card
okay I think that is it for now!!

 

[TIGGER41681]

Any Ideas for a Door sign for me because I am drawing a complete blank ???

 

[favoriteslave]

You guys are a hoot.

Here is my list:

Find Kennel for dog.
Disconnect phone (don't want someone figuring out we aren't home).
Copy of all information (flight #'s, cc #'s) to mom for safe keeping.
Tell Credit cards were going out of the country.
Make inventory of luggage.
Write luggage combinations on something I won't lose.
Get international phone cards (for me and as gifts to servers, etc.)
Get tip money
Get Cash (small bills).
Leave keys for all the cars with Mom
Pay the credit cards one last time
Get another memory card for my camera and try not to delete 1/2 the trips pictures when I'm drunk.
MOTION SICKNESS MEDs.
Tuxes (place here is going out of business, know owners, getting discount)
Get passports out of bank box
Then there are all the other things like actually pick out what I want to wear, etc.

My DH will pack the night before and still have more than he needs. Its completely unfair.

Have a great night. Going home to watch the Cardinals maybe win the National League Title. (DS son's favorite team)
