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

SHELL - thanks for asking about John. His foot is feeling better now. I took him to a foot specialist the other day but I feel like I was given the complete run around. The first nurse that saw him took x-rays, said nothing was broken and said basically that he pulled the muscle/tendon that runs along the bottom of his foot. No big deal she said. The Dr. then came in, touched his heal in 3 places and said "he has blah blah blah disease". I was like "WHAT?!!!" He went into this long winded explanation about how common it is..blah blah blah...they want him to wear a brace at night (which isn't covered by insurance and would cost me $100)..they want to fit him for orthotics...another $250 out of pocket...and regular visits to the foot Dr. This is the 1st time John has EVER complained about any pain at all. He's a fairly active 7 yr old who recently started breaking boards in karate with his feet. You think maybe he just hurt it a bit? I do....he woke up the next day (Wed. morning) and his heal has been fine ever since. Sorry to rant...probably why I didn't post about it the other day...I was VERY frustrated.
By the way...I don't take it lightly when my kids complain about something...they are generally not sick and they don't really complain much (about physical stuff that it ) I just really feel that in this situation the Dr. was way to quick to jump to a conclusion.

Ok...deep breath...I feel better now. Thanks for listening!

Hi Nana Heads!!!


This weekend: Heading to Cleveland tomorrow with DD, and 2 grandkids. My DD and her 2.5 year old son will see the Wiggles tomorrow night. On Friday, we head to Morgantown, WV to see my 2 grandkids, DS and DDIL. Back home on Sunday.

Jeff: Are you ignoring me????!!!! I assume our bet is still on for WVU/Pitt.


Jan

Jan - Sorry I must have missed a post somewhere. Sure we're on - but the game isn't until NEXT week. I'm sure I'll be buying you a second drink unless you are willing to give me some points!

And I am so jealous. I'd give anything to be able to take DD 2 1/2 to the Wiggles Show. DD8 saw them when they were still playing smaller venues and it was way fun for her. DD 2 1/2 likes them even more than DD8 ever did but they are NOT coming to Pittsburgh on this tour.

Quick question...anyone with kids from ages 6 - 10? I have an almost 8 year old and he would love to get to know your kids.
Lauri

Hi Lauri:

Tonya what a great idea I thinkl I will wear my tiara around the house too...
ok work days left lets see

My niece loaned me her tiara and its in its own case, Mike and Austin just shake their heads at me like they don't understand

 

[firemans wife]

Wow I had a lot of catching up to do. You guys had me cracking up

Lynn-I hope your grandmother is doing better. Here is some for her.

Jan- Yes I got my gift in Brohnners. I wonder if we picked the same thing?? Chances of that are small!! I hope you have a good time in Cleavland this weekend. My nephew love the wiggles. My kids have watched it, but they are too old for it now. The girls night out on the ship sounds great!!

Lauri-I have 2 daughters ages 7 and 10.

Welcome to Greg-Good to hear from you.

Shell Thanks for the St MArtin airport information. We are thinking about going to the beach that is right by the airport. Here is an interesting web site of video of the planes flying over the beach.

Passport? I thought we didn't need passports! I'm not going on the cruise if we need one...we don't have ours. We thought it was "passport free" until the end of Dec. Our TA told us that.
I need to check into this.

Please excuse any misspelled words on this post and the one I posted earlier I'm in a big hurry today. Can't seem to get anything right today. One of those days.

Esther is home sick and I've got the kids. I feel sick also. I do believe mine is mind over matter. I broke down and got that darn flu shot and now I feel sick! I knew it.
Going now Laura is wanting lunch.

Kathy, great weather huh! You all are going to love it if it keeps up.

Oh, I'm not a drinker, well not on a regular basis, maybe one or two a year, but I'd love to have a drink with you ladies. Who knows you might meet the real me Esther will come along to.
Pat

 

[LindaBabe]

Relax Pat! You don't need a pass port yet. But, it sure makes life easier!

Laurie, Whatcha going to shop for ? Inquiring minds want to know!

Lynn - glad you're feeling better - it's been a couple days with no baby picture

I don't drink much either but oh baby! I can't WAIT for a Konk Kooler!!!!

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Hi Pat,
no you dont need passports yet.
Just a photo ID and a birth certificate with the raised seal will do.

Yes I am enjoying all the great sunshine here today!!
Hope you feel better soon!!

If anyone is still wondering we have 10,624

Kathy

 

[disneediva]

Kathy, I have a favor to ask if you go to the world before our cruise could you look for the fast pass holder you can clip to your top shaped like a mickey head, I use them for work. Thanks so much

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

I will be happy to keep an eye out for them, although I dont think I hav ever seen them before. But since I wasnt really looking for them, I may of just not noticed them.
Do you want to know the price or do you want me to buy you some?? If so, how many would you like??
I will probably go there before the cruise at least once more.

Kathy

 

[woogal]

Well now THAT gave me a chuckle:

Wendy says: "Kathy, IF you go to WDW in the next couple of weeks ..." That's like saying, "Hey Lynn, if you get a chance to stop at the mall this week ..." Is there any doubt?

 

[woogal]

Boy, everyone keeps saying "I'm not a drinker ...". Does this mean that all the drinking is up to Cheri, Wendy and me? You folks really don't want that, do you?

 

[disneediva]

Kathy I would like 2 if you see them, last time I got one they were by the pins..thanks so much

OK Lynn, your turn since you shop frequently, I am looking for a cooler you keep on your desk and set a can it in to keep it cold all day I bought one last year for my dad and forgot where I bought it, if you see one while shopping let me know..thanks

Wendy

is it a sign of a problem when your carryon is filled with liquor?

 

[woogal]

is it a sign of a problem when your carryon is filled with liquor?

Heck, I don't know. Maybe we should ask Cheri.
(PS: I like having you home all day )

[TiggerKing]

HELP GUYS!!!!!

Steve, Jeff, Bill, Trey, Wally....You guys are abandoning me here with all these women. Now, while some might not think it is a bad thing, I don't like the way some of these conversations are going. I need your support! START POSTING!

 

[PuppyMommy]

Bob's tiara remains a secret. I do have another that my cousin gave me when I was little. Maybe I should look for it.

 

[TiggerKing]

Yes, but Lisa ... the real question is ... were you also working on BOB's tiara?

I knew I should have kept you two apart until the cruise!
