Got docs!

 

[Becx N Gav]

Good job! Temps are supposed to hit 50+ this week so I suppose I'll go out and clean up some of the beds some eves. The leaves have gotten trapped in the beds and it looks ghastly - fine for Halloween, tho I guess I should take care of it now

Make it a great week all!

cheers,

Yeah all the leaves are now back Oh well, no more space to put them in the garden bin so they can just blow around for a couple of weeks

Ya got that right....although, I must say, I'm getting spoiled with having all my meals prepared for me...the doctor gave Steve orders that I am NOT to touch any kitchen applicances for 1 week....

Make the most of it And make sure it's a calendar week and not a work week

 

[miss missy]

[Becx N Gav]

Got our docs too can we leave now???? I sooo wanna go NOW!!!!!!!

Not before we do I'm itching to get going but I don't want to get too excited and annoy everyone The last week (6th - 8th December) is going to be a nightmare - I'll have to sit on my hands and try to not bounce everywhere

Happy Tuesday folks!

I got so much done this weekend!

Wow, that is one crazy list!! Nicely done

I must say, I'm getting spoiled with having all my meals prepared for me...the doctor gave Steve orders that I am NOT to touch any kitchen applicances for 1 week....

Bonus!! If that happened here, we'd be eating take-out for a week! Glad to hear you're resting well

I found out yesterday that my little boy was accepted into the Disney College Program.

Good Morning Everyone !!!! 1 month from today my girls and I leave for Florida...See you all real soon.

 

[tlcoke]

Yeah, guess I'd better do that, too.
I also want to buy La Nouba tickets.

Where is the best place to buy these kind of tickets?
Disney? Dreams? Undercover Tourist?

For MVMCP - Order direct from Disney. I have mine on Will Call and will pick it up prior to the cruise from Guest Services.

Not sure about the LaNouba Tickets.

Went to pick up adam's birth certificate from his moms house and it was a sheet of paper about 5" by 3 ",(mine is a full sized piece of paper) I almost freaked out hopeing this was a "real" certified one even though it did have the raised seal. We took it down to the documents office yesterday and the lady told us it was an official certified copy and can be used for the cruise, thank god!!!! Didn't renew our passports for the cruise just because I knew we wouldnt use them again anytime soon....almost had a heart attack! it takes 4-6 weeks to get a new bc, darn me for being a procrastinator on something so importnat! Anyways, crisis diverted got our cruise documents yesterday but didnt have time to read them yet. Happy tuesday cruisers!

 

[tinkbutt]

Good morning, happy hump day

It's only 4 weeks tomorrow until we fly out I think these last few weeks will fly by and we'll be in Orlando before we know it

Gav had a call from the owner of the garage that didn't replace the catalytic converter on our car, he was very apologetic and sounded quite worried. He has said we can stop by the garage and they will refund the money for the part Apparently the guy who did the work no longer works for them I think maybe he tried this on with a few people, but then again the company could be just saying that. But this is such a relief, we can now pay the car tax which is due to be paid by the end of the month. And we got a letter from the electric and gas company we were with in 2007 and they have reviewed thier charges and they are sending our refunds We're due to get around £60 ($100 roughly) but a colleague of mine said she will only get about £11! So we've been really fortunate this month

Good news about the car part. And you also get refund from power company? You ARE having a good month.

wow, a double bonus!! Fab to hear some good news after you guys were hit with the foreign xchange hassle


Dreamworks really showed off their talents in Megamind - amazing scenes with water and hair.

In 30 days we'll be tasting pumpkin juice! Yesterday I made reservations at Texas de Brazil at DH's request - guess last time was a hit! Time for me to take care of those last details!

cheers,

Good Morning Everyone !!! 4 Weeks from tomorrow my girls and I leave for Orlando !!!!

For anyone who is interested, I have created a Packing List
for the trip - note it is still a work in progress, but I have left spaces where you can add to it or take stuff off you won't need.

You can download a copy of my packing list here: http://www.4shared.com/document/lAH5mr6m/UltimatePackingList.html


For the listing of Duck Tape on the Packing List - Here is some reasons why to pack a roll: (from the Cruise Boards)

>It can hem pants or a skirt in an emergency.
> It can fix a rip in clothing. (great for fixing a hole in a pocket)
>It can seal bottles of shampoo, suntan lotion, etc so they don't leak in your luggage.
> It can mend broken flip flops.
> It can keep silent a rattling closet door at 3 am in rough seas.
> It can mend a broken camera strap.
> It can mend a broken belt.
> It can secure a power strip out of the way so don't trip on it or the cords for all your rechargable phones/cameras/DVD players/laptops.
> Reenforce broken binding on the book you brought.
> Keep kids from leaving the stateroom while you shower.

>And many many more handy uses.

Duck tape - stuff that holds the universe together. A pared-down packing list. http://www.4shared.com/document/AsW-IIBI/Packing_List.html


Just got back from check-up Dr Appoinment. According to their scale, I've lost 20#. Don't have access to my scale at home, just have to go on how my clothes fit.
