May 10, 2008 Ship of Thieves! Stealing the Magic..AGAIN!!! Panama Canal FL to CA!!! Part 5

[granmaz]

And by the way.......

I'M DONE!
I'M DONE!
I'M DONE!


Well, at least for a couple weeks. Rest tonight....celebrate tomorrow night!

Great Holly.

Yeah, because I'm back!

That is good news!!

Gee, I just love how everybody's making plans for me when I was just throwing ideas around!

I won't know until the first week of October if we can even go anywhere, but if we do, I don't think we'd go until Sunday because Tyler's at his dad's until Saturday. It's just too tiring to rush from his house to the airport and get wherever we're going almost at bedtime. Much easier to get up Sunday morning and leave.

If you get to florida from 25th November,will you get up to Disney? If so we could meet!

Well it is a lovely day so far(8.30am!), but I am not sure it is going to last! Rain all weekend and into next week is our forecast! What a summer. Roll on Nov 25th is all I can say.

Might have to go and shop! Not the meat and veg shop - I'm talking shoes, skirts, trousers!

 

[granmaz]

Just ironed my nice cropped trousers, changed and got ready and guess what - rain! Had my whites out on the line too, so I am now a little damp and in my long trousers!

Hardly worn my cropped trousers this year. Hopefully they will be too big for next year but you never know!

Hi Granmaz

My daugher took the picture of her while we were at Pirates on Med. Cruise. I put her on the frame (Nana) then stupid photo on it. Hope she will laugh at it!!

Good Morning Marilyn....sorry about your weather and getting caught in the rain.

We have had a perfect summer....just the right amount of rain and sunshine, but not too hot. Of course, this is the summer that I can't go to the pool or the ocean to swim because of my legs. The summer will be over by the time I get it all cleared up. Oh Well....gotta look forward to swimming on the Wonder in October instead...and then the Magic in May!!!!!

I'm still a GTY, no room assignment yet. I called Disney and asked for 5th floor Aft, no sixth floor. They told me I had to contact DU. So I sent them an email....who knows what's going to happen.

My luck, I'll get an upgrade to a CAT 5 and will refuse it and ask to be downgraded to a Cat 6 and be put on the 5th floor. I'll get the upgrade because I don't want it.

 

[scottishwee35]

I hope she like it

We are daft!!

Good Morning Deborah, I LOVE this Picture!!!! It made me laugh!!!! Hope you have fun at your mom's 60th birthday party tomorrow.

What is a hen's party that you're going to tonight?

 

[granmaz]

Deborah, that is a brilliant photo of your mum!!! Hope she has a happy birthday.

Can't believe I will be 60 next year!

I remember emailing Kelsie(DU) who booked our cruise just after booking, giving my concerns of not wanting the solid verandahs. We are short and I just want to sit on my verandah and see the sea! She said they had been told they couldn't make requests, but I am thinking to try again like you.

Cat 5 isn't really an upgrade is it? Same room? It's the solid balcony I don't want.

I would try. If they tell me that they don't take requests, I'll just tell them that Disney told me I had to request through them and see what they say.

Cat 5 is approximately $250 more than Cat 6 but it's the same exact room, it's just on a higher level....deck 7. I prefer to be on a lower level closer to the water...deck 5 please!

Marilyn, is today another ab day at the gym?

I just ordered a ballet barre for the house. As soon as my legs clear up, I'm going to get started with a very basic routine. I studied ballet a lifetime ago, but I still love it...and considering that I could really use the exercise...I would prefer to do that instead of a gym.

Aye, parties on this weekend Hope get the Champagne tonight or tom

Now I am off to work 2 to 6 pm instead of evening. My line manager gave me early shift today

[EllaEnchanted]

Deborah, I know Marilyn invited you to join the Champagne Girls tasing party....but, let me invite you to join our ladies only high tea party. It will be held on the boat at Palos.

We lost UKangel/Mandy....she had to cancel....but Marilyn and Mandy were going to hold court and we would all learn Brittish slang and how it differs from our language. Would you like to join us and teach us some Scottish slang? Is it different from Brittish? It could be a lot of fun, would you please join us and teach us? I'll put you on the list.

 

[1Grumpy John]

Please take it easy today don't push it I'll do what I can Later.

Deb, I could have gone, but I don't go to the gym on a Friday - I like to have one day to just enjoy!!! The abs ache, but not as much as I thought they would.

A ballet barre would be brilliant Deb. I do agree it is much more preferable to do something you enjoy. There have been times I have gone on the way to the gym with my bag, but never got there!! Shops are a better option!

 

[granmaz]

As far as the cabin assignment goes, I wish I could request non smoking neighbours. I will wait till you get a reply from DU and then decide if I do the same as you.

 

[EllaEnchanted]

I've got to figure out where to run away to for Christmas...at least Christmas eve...that's when I would go to mom's and we would celebrate and do presents at midnight because that's when Santa comes!

I'm already leaving town for Thanksgiving because I have never spent one not at mom's house...she always did the cooking. I've got to be away this year so I'm going to Bradenton, FL to be with some of my favorite people, my cousin and my aunt and my cousin's son Kyle who is our godchild.

Then I'll have to run away again during Greek Easter...that's going to be a hard one. It's the most celebrated holiday for the Greeks. It was all about mom's cooking our favorite Greek foods and traditions.

Thank goodness I'll be with all of you and Venetia on Mother's Day....that's a relief. My mom loved peach roses...she had them at her funeral. Maybe I could get a peach rose and drop it in the water, where ever we are on Mother's Day. Venetia said she was going to release a tink balloon for her mom this weekend in DL. Maybe we can do flowers and balloons for our mom's on the crusie. That would be nice.

Kaylee: Good job on all your hard work unpacking! Moving is so time consuming and hard, but very rewarding once you're all done and settled. Keep at it and you'll be done before you know it!
