morning all! I can't sleep.

Last night was Kindergarten Roundup. The schools mascot even made an appearance.....we went into all 7 classrooms. They are limited to 18 students each. They have some great interactive learning tools. Samantha loved it. We bought 4 shirts for $20, they wear them on Fridays and to Field Trips....now just hope we get our first choice teacher!
 
Morning All - Lillygator - you are up early today - sorry you could not sleep.

I was out all day on the road and narry a moment to check the boards.

Has every one been chatty?????

Right! :thumbsup2
 
Looking for some good vibes sent this way. Shannon has a job interview tomorrow that we really hope she gets (it will mean a move and some short term pain, but long term it is really worth it).

She's feeling a little nervous tonight and ill-prepared, but I think that is just nerves and she will do just fine. Just needs to get those butterflies in her stomach flying in formation!

Interview is tomorrow at 11:30 pst.

Best of Luck!!!!!!

She'll be great!:thumbsup2

All the best to Shannon!!!

Will you be moving towards or away from civilization? I mean Vancouver...:lmao:
 
I will also hope to bring $2 bills, if you want one I will definatly bring you one. I have a stack that I won't spend b/c their so neat. My grandfather used to give them to me for my birthday and say if you always have $2 bill, you will never be broke. I have never spent those bills.:goodvibes


These sound awesome but arne't 2009 cruises already out?

We are bringing $2.00 bills as well. Great for small tips.
 
Crazy how rooms are coming and going I tried calling DCL to try and upgrade and one Cat would be available and when I spoke to DH and called back it would be gone and then they would have a different Cat.:confused3 very weird. I wonder who's cancelling or doing all that room swapping all day...they said it was nutz:eek: Well, I've been having busy days and I'm determined to get some packing done this week:rolleyes1 A friend took me out for an early bday lunch at the club(I usually don't go but she does and that's where she took me it was nice) tommorow...last day to volunteer in DS class then DD playdate and take the car in and then Wed. DH and I will go out for my bday...yes day after tax due. He asked what I wanted I said the cruise:goodvibes I don't need anything just happy to go:thumbsup2 I did get a couple pairs of shoes today nothing special but comfy sandals a pair of brown and a pair of black. I want to bring the minimal...we'll see how that goes. I finally got tix and hotel for WDW they gave us some extras with our package...anyone else get that?:confused3 golf voucher and one for their raycer boat things and of course the $15 off at planet hollywood and stuff like that...thats why I like booking direct all the little extras:cloud9: Its getting closer and I'm almost done with the planning....it seems like it never ends:scared: but will get to relax when it get here though:upsidedow

Do you think it is Travel Agents or others that book rooms in bulk?????
 
Oh that is so weird - I have no problem getting singles from my bank - any branch I go - I also have no trouble getting $2 bills.

If anyone needs some just let me know and I will bring what you need and you can give me big bills once on ship - I do not mind. Just PM me with what type you want and how much of each.

I'll take big billls.....








Oh....






I have to give you money first????




:rotfl:
 
Here's the latest batch of rumors from the DIS pod cast:

Summer 2009, Magic, PanamaCanal, to LA then Alaksan cruises

Summer 2010, Magic, PC then Trans Pacific to Hong Kong for HK/Toyoko cruises

Summer 2009, 2010, Wonder, 3 4 and 7 day Bahama/Carribbean rotatio

Supposedly a DCL executive 'slipped' in a meeting and refered to the two new ships as WISHES and DREAMS (yes, the plural version of the word).


.

Well, can you say DUH - as in Wishes and Dreams......
 
Yeah I'm finding it absolute murder to get change back in US greenbacks. Just none to be had no how, for some strange reason. :cool2:

But yes, like you Ian I too never use cash. My office staff were all shocked when I actually had a $10 bill the other day. I'm notorious for using my Credit Card. I will use it for everything. We get travel points when we use it so we have taken to using it for everything and then paying it off each month. We just keep track of what we are spending so we don't go over our budget. Almost have a return flight for 4 to New York built up in just over 1 year.

It is amazing how these days, cash is really not needed.

I sort of wish that it was possible on DCL to buy a book of tip coupons, that one could hand out in place of bills, then just pay for them on the room account as one does for the tip coupons for room server, etc. It wouldn't eliminate the need for cash but would seriously reduce it.
 
I rarely use cash either.

Well I am trying to rouse the girls. Good Luck Shannon - have a great day all!
 
There's not too much going on here tonight. Everyone must be getting out their luggage, packing or viewing their lists to see what's left to do. In fact I did a little packing today. I hope to only bring 2 suit cases and 2 carry- ons. There's just the the 2 of us. But you know how that is at the last minute, I panic and throw more stuff in. I know I will have to buy a t-shirt or two or three. Oh my. I think I will just throw in a collapable duffle. :lmao:

I keep losing my list and starting a new one.......

Cannot panic this year as we must fly......Gee...must get busy...
 
Hi Guys . . .

Manuel improves on one front little by little, but the surgeon does not like what he sees in his surgical wound. Tomorrow morning they are going to attempt a CT Scan, and we will know more about where we are going from here. Progress on one front, but bad news so far on another. I am terrified of him having to go back into surgery and having any chance of survival . . .

I played around a bit with Ian's Teddy R. picture at the hospital . . .

John, great embellishment!
 
OK, this is bizarre.

I'm having breakfast, listing to WBEZ National Public Radio on Mrs. Bennett, and there was just a local Chicago news item that a cougar was shot and killed in an alley about a mile away from my house (Roscoe Village neighborhood for those who know Chicago)!

They said that cougar sightings in Illinois are extremely rare let alone in Chicago itself.

They are checking the body for markings are tags to get more information on the cougar.

I was just thinking about how I let the dogs (Truman and Tallulah) out in the front yard. Truman is a whopping 8lbs and Tallulah is 6lbs.)

I can just see Truman trying to take on a cougar!
 
what we started doing is using our debit card at the grocery store and getting $10 or $20 cash back and asking for it in singles. It hasn't been too difficult at this point.

This is another great tip from the Dis. :thumbsup2 I love this group of cruisers.:love:
 
Lots of chatting last night! I loved all the pixs - feckles or not. The pirate outfits were great!
