LOL<br /><br />MaryLou - don&#39;t know what to expect come Monday when school starts.  The first couple of days of vacation both girls got up before normal time to get up.  it was amazing&#33;  now, Now they both sleep to after 8:00 or 8:30.  I am going to have to start getting them up early again.<br />They have enjoyed their time off.  <br />Rose wants to go shopping today.  Her Christmas money is burning a hole in her pocket but I have convinced her to save it for the cruise.  I&#39;ve told her she can by things in Cozumel that she can&#39;t get around her.  She said &quot;Yeah, like more maracas&#33;&quot;     <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" /><br /><br />For New Year&#39;s Eve we will be staying in.  Don&#39;t go out anymore.  the police around here are very good about check points ...which is good...but still, I worry there is always some crazy on the road.<br />Do need to make a run to the county line.  We live in a &quot;dry county&quot;  I am sure that place is going to be <b>BUSY</b> today&#33;  <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":tongue:" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> <br /><br />Everyone with the new Christmas electronics - good luck - they sound complicated to me<br /><br /><b><u>MaryLou - from what Martha said you must be lucky in the casino, got any advice?  on our last cruise we walked through the casino but didn&#39;t play anything.  I want to at least try something this time.</b></u><br />Wishing one and all health, happiness and hope and dream fulfillment this new year.  May 2009 be better to you than 2008.<br /><br />HI to everybody and be safe today friends.  <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cool2:" border="0" alt="cool.gif" /> <br /><br />Andrea<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br />Andrea - I think Martha was the lucky one in the casino and she had not played before.    She seemed to win a little every night.   I won some nights but lost others so ended up just a few &#036;&#036;&#036; on the plus side - which is definately better than on the minus side.
