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

[Dixielady908]

Hi all: I know I am waaayy behind on posting.

Well to everyone leaving.....have a safe trip and see ya saturday.

I just got back from my first pedi and mani.....I loved it....the only things is I am not used to be really carefull with my nails...until they are fully dry.
Well I did red......and thats all I'm saying!!!

Nothing really going on here.....One more work day.....
It was really slow at work for me today.....hope tomorrow is just a little busier so time goes faster.

One of the Doc's I work for is off on Wednesdays, so this morning I was talking with him and telling him about the cruise and us (disboard) with our green shirts and tiara's.....he wants pictures.....he thinks that we sound kinda nutty... just dont get that....anyway...I also told him about the web cam at two palms....and watching the ship sail away. So he left work early today and then called and left me a voice message....he said he's going to watch the ship saturday....he wants to see the sea of green waving goodbye if were not two late leaving port....just may have to do that.

Well nothing else going on....I'm thinking right about now that I may have to kill these two dogs.....Ya give them chews and they still whine and fight over the darn things. they drive me crazy I think i need a vacation just from them.....

Well talk with ya all later

Bill's packing, I just got done waxing my eyebrows (oh Bob, it's not that creepy!). :

Hey - Lauri gave us a giant life size picture of her pedi - why didn't we get one of your newly shorn brows???

Not sure if anyone has any idea about this - and I did post on the main forum but....

Dh informs me (just now!!!!!!!!!!!!) that he CANNOT go 7 days without e-mail from work. So....does anyone know if a crackberry (Blackberry) will work onboard? What if we buy the wireless package? Any other options you can think of? He just needs to send and receive e-mail.

Thanks!

LOVE THAT! DH is leaving his home ...I was surprised to hear him say that actually. I don't know the answer...maybe you could google it?

Have a good night!

Note how I am adding to the count Kathy!

I finished the girls' pillowcases and I think they turned out quite well if I do say so. Dh just got out of a meeting for work (darn workaholic!) so did not make it to Walmart to get me the one more pillowcase I need for DS. So...I will run there tomorrow morning (gotta love Walmart - it opens at 7am) and finish up his pillowcase tomorrow night. Otherwise I think I am pretty good. I am running all the wash right now and will pack all the remaining items tomorrow. Our taxi comes to the house at 7am on Thursday and we'll be in Orlando by about 1pm. Man - I can't believe it is so close. I alternate between panic that I will forget something and such excitement that my stomach feels funny. I cannot wait to meet you all - I have been trying to memorize names from the cruise list - but if I call you your online name for the first few days do not be offended LOL.

Okie - sorry to hear about your mom - that has gotta be tough! Hang in there.

OK, gotta go and try and solve DHs e-mail crisis. Talk to you all later!

Safe trip to everyone heading out, I can't wait to meet all of you guys!

Lynn:: I caved, I registered Madison for the nursery for 2 hours (1 hour on Thrs. and 1 hour on Friday). When will Drew be there?

I have to repack b/c the luggage is over 50 lbs, but it's crazy, the luggage itself must be like 15 pounds itself! I have to repack everything and distribute them evenly in other luggages so I won't have to pay the over weight charge. And the pack rat that I am, I'm having trouble with it.

Ok, have a great night everyone!!!

Okie - to you and your mom. Tell Josh he has to go to school today!!!! Last school wake up before we get on the ship.

Up early this morning to prepare for tomorrow's lunch with DD and her family.

Have a great last day of work or last day of school.

Good Evening All ,


Pat: Drew have 2 small suitcases. One is all the formula, diaper, baby food, and stuff like that and the other one is all his little clothes. The baby food that I use for Drew is Gerber Stage # 1 and it comes in 2 packs so that saved us on room and they are also plastic so I don't have to worry about them breaking !!! Are you packing baby food for Laura??

Esther and Stephen are packing baby food for Laura. She is on stage 2. That stage comes in jars! They were wondering how to pack 7 days worth without them breaking! We did discuss bubble wrap.

Good Morning All
Well it was a scary morning here!! DS was watching me put in wash that DH had and fall back and hit his head on the floor. He cried but doesn't seem to be acting different.
I am soooooo nervous !!!!Should I call the doctor??

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Pat, besides bubblewrap make sure it is in a carry on bag. The checked luggage gets banged around pretty good sometimes. I have stood on my balcony and watched bags fall off the carrier box on the fork lift about 12 feet to the ground a few times when they were packed too high.

Thanks!

Sarah, if he can access his Blackberry server through a normal wireless network, that would work. The wireless package is expensive, though. There is no unlimited version. But, if I recall correctly, most Blackberries work through a cellular network. If that is the case, he will only have access to it on Tuesday and Wednesday. He needs to check with his IT dept. about the wireless deal.

Of course, the other option is to use the internet cafe. He cannot download or upload files, but if his company has a web portal for e-mail, he can at least send and receive messages.

Now, for the most important part: Do you want me to work him over Friday night about reminding him that this is a FAMILY vacation, and work can survive without him? Tell him to give them the emergency ship number and they can pay the $6.95 per minute to talk to him if it is that important. You would be AMAZED at how many things can wait until you return when you tell them the cost of a phone call!

Okay, to keep Kathy happy, I will make another post. I don't want her pulling our her whip and coming to my cabin with it!

This is one of the door signs I made last night. Not quite as fancy as Bill's, but I like it!
