Crash, not exactly a big contributor to the dash for the next but just doing what I can.

CBJ...

Every little bit helps...

But I gotta really really gotta go pretty soon. Traffic is piling up now.

Good thing I'll not have to get into it where I'll be going shortly...

I am with you--not exactly the travel problems you have but need to go pick up my DD.

Best of luck to all of those gunning for the next

Since most of you won't see our cabin door, we are way forward on Deck 5 so not a lot of foot traffic, I wanted to share two door magnets my friend made for us and for my DS birthday. She has never been on DCL and is going to WDW for the first time next week. I was showing her some of the threads and how creative people get and this is what she surprised me with:

Michelle, those look great!!! We will see them every day.

ugh...I just go thru with a long phone call to WDW reservations...got transfered around, ended up with a really rude grand gatherings cm who acted like I was the biggest idiot around with my questions. It was one of those conversations when you don't know if he is looking at something before he answers a question, or if he is waiting for you to reply. I kept having to ask him if he was still there, or if he is waiting for me because of the total silence on the other line. He could have said, let me check that for you, it will be a minute. And he seemed to enjoy telling me NO for everything I asked...I felt like I was in the UnDisney twilight zone!!

sorry...just a little afternoon vent! carry on.......

Thank you so much to everyone who worked on them!

[captaincrash]

you mean I am not the only one??? ... they refer to my chatting with all of you wonderful people as talking to my imaginary friends.. i have no idea what they mean..

HEY!

I've MET with some awfully nice DIS neighbors in San Fran and Boston....

.. plus a few locally and at DL....

So we're not all that crazy....

Well... maybe one of the MIKEs might be a bit crazy....

... then again, only L'lil G can render that opinion....​

Really cute Michelle! By the way, we're in #5646!

I'm sorry I won't be here for the *sprint* but, I'm taking my kids to the water park. They are running an anniversary special *$5 after 5pm*. So, we are off!

I saw that! Got the email and wished we lived closer so we could pop over to do that. LOL

I got to say- I do 95% of everything to get ready for this trip and my DH sighs when I ask him to finish the labels for the FE gifts.
I am about to go into my "Do you have any idea what I have done to get ready for this cruise?" He loves that particular speech.

My DH has heard that speech (or variations of it) in the past.

I see Bill and I have the same job. We pull in to the garage and everyone scatters and I am stuck bringing in all the bags. "It's OK, I got it, no problem, really I can open the door with my foot"

You mean that's not in the job description of DH or daddy? (or both)
I thought it was..
I seriously laughed out loud when I read this cause we do the same thing- we all scatter and DH brings it all in. HOWEVER, I do think I have the larger job- putting everything back up, washing clothes, etc. Then the next thing he does is just put the luggage up once it's emptied! I think he has the easy job. LOL

But of course I'll be walking with everyone else!

FOr one thing... the price is right for this shore excursion...

< wink >

And plus I'll be in the company of so many wonderful neighbors.

I would not miss this - unless, of course, I was still sleeping in my cabin - passed out from the RUMspiked chocolate milk someone is sure to slip me at last nites' dinner!

I'm going to have ta go pretty soon....

I thought this was some kind of mad dash... so where's the dash of madness everyone?​

ack.... I hope I don't oversleep and miss the walk with everyone. LOL

Well that stinks.
Try calling again? Seems like the lottery on who you get when you call.

 

[dahuffy]

Oh No! Have spent the last 4 days in the hospital with DH. Drs. say he had a TIA (mini stroke). No lasting difficulties that we know of, but still running lots of tests. Hope they okay us for the cruise. Everything is bought and DD10 is already packed. I have lots that won't get done. Might be the worst dressed but as long as we're on the cruise...

Cheer up! ... and let your "JETS" cool a bit....

You're among sympathetic friends and neighbors here in the DIS Pirate Zone....

They couldn't do what you wanted? I'm so sorry about the phone call! I hope that in the end you get what you wanted for your family

 

[dahuffy]

Yanno we are all stressing about what to wear, what to bring, and quite frankly we all have too much stuff to cram into our suitcases - your comment about being "worst dressed" made me pause. Good golly we are all so lucky to be healthy enough and have the means to go on an adventure such as this.

Amen!

Just a reminder of something we do...

I have already made out the postcard address "list" (mailing labels) with addresses and purchased my postcard stamps. makes it easier to drop them off at the front desk on our way out to a day of fun (This is for those staying at DL or WDW)

It also helps with remembering who we have already sent postcards to. Once their address is gone..we know we sent it!

I know it doesn't work for on the ship but atleast it's a start for the resort!

You send postcards to people? LOL! We go on vacation and I forget about everything and everyone else.

 

[dahuffy]

I got a few errands done this morning. Including picking up Body Glide so my parts don't chaffe. And no, nobody is borrowing that! (EWWWW )

The kids are bugging to go in the pool. It's a hot one here today!

Talk to you all later!

Not as hot as here.....106!

 

[rillsung]

We sent a couple from Australia on our honeymoon... Like 1 to everyone in our families and each of our dogs... My parents (dogsitters) got a kick out of that! But usually we don't send postcards. Normally we're back before they get to their destination anyway!

 

[Diznyfan68]

That's good news!


I'm so agravated today! Our DVR went out so they sent us a new one... The new one is more defective than the old one!

Then the nurse called from the GI's office. When I last spoke with her, she said we'd be scheduled for the feeding clinic on Sept 5th. Now maybe we'll get in on Oct 3rd. We've been working on this for 7mo now. Apparently a committee decides who gets to go. I can't believe there are that many kids worse off than we are.

On the upside, all the tests that they ran are normal...

That just totally stinks about the appointment but great news that the tests all came back normal!
