I hope everyone remembered to &quot;spring ahead&quot; last night and adjusted your clocks.  Jim&#39;s clock is fine this morning - I guess it was just one day premature.   I for one am looking forward to having dinner in the daylight hours.   Hopefully my sleep patterns will straighten out now that the days will be getting  longer and staying brighter longer.<br /><br />I have lots to do today while Jim tries to put the guest room back together but I guess the first thing will be to finally pick a color for the paint.     He has a couple of hours of woodwork to do first but I am running out of time.   I keep leaning towards the color that is there already and he refuses to repaint it the same color.  I guess I am a real creature of habit.<br /><br />Kevin - Have fun at the cabin.   Sounds like you are spending the weekend helping out a very worthy cause. <br /><br />I PM&#39;d Jenn early yesterday but haven&#39;t heard anything from her.   I am really getting worried about her.   <br /><br />Robert - Congratulations on DD&#39;s jobs.   Will they be working together?   My invite to the BBQ must have gotten lost along with all the others.    Hope you had fun though.<br /><br />Andrea - Glad you had such a good day at the races.    Sounds like a fun outing.<br /><br />Cheryl - Good luck with the battery search.   I always like to carry a second battery for my camera with me but the ones for my new camera are pretty expensive.     Is everything all set for the wedding tomorrow?    <br /><br />Rose - Jim also can&#39;t figure out the fascination with CruiseCrazies.    Guess he will just have to see for himself in November why I spend so much time here and what a great group of Crazies we have here.<br /><br />Deb should be returning today.   I hope they had a great trip.<br /><br />Falina - how is the hand now that you are wearing the brace?<br /><br />Jackie - have a fun day with Luc.<br /><br />Sue - Hope you are feeling better today?<br /><br />Martha &amp; Vickey - hope you are both doing better.<br /><br />Time to get some laundry started and make a grocery list.   Going to try and get to Wal-Mart before it gets too crowded to pick up a few odds and ends I need.   Once again the kids toys have outgrown the storage boxes I have for them and I&#39;m running out of room for this.   For once I am not to blame - they seem to bring something over here everytime they come and then decide to leave it here when they leave.   I think it is Deb&#39;s way of cleaning out her toy room.    <br /><br />I&#39;ll be back later to chat some more and hopefully get some pics from yesterday posted.<br /><br />Make today special   <br /><br /><br />','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2009-03-08 12:27:11',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(353281,488,1,18,352367,'2009-03-08 13:08:31',NULL,'','<img src=\"http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l206/crusngram/IMG_0055.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><br /><br />Ash was a little bit nervous on her first trip down the runway','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2009-03-08 13:08:31',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(353282,488,1,18,352367,'2009-03-08 13:10:21',NULL,'','<img src=\"http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l206/crusngram/IMG_0062.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><br /><br />But she was all smiles by the finale and ready to sign up for next year.','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2009-03-08 13:10:21',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(353283,2278,1,18,352367,'2009-03-08 13:36:37',NULL,'','<i><b>Good Morning<br /><br />Coffee is ready <img src=\"http://www.animated-gifs.eu/kitchen-coffee-machines/0007.gif\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><br /><br />With some help from Kathy and my GS we completed the deck frame yesterday...8 full hours.<br />Now we have to aquire the top boards to finish the main part of the deck.

Managed to pull myself out of bed at an ungodly hour so we could make the early (8:30) service at church.  I went to bed at 3:10, which due to the time change was actually 4:10 and then had to be up at 7:00 to get ready.  Hopefully, I will make up for it tonight.  We normally go out to eat on Sundays, but as we ate out 2 times yesterday, plus I need to be around when Gregory eventually shows up with Scotty to try on his new duds, I decided to cook today.  It is actually easier on the diet if I cook, because I know exactly what is in it.  Todays menu is meatloaf, oven roasted herb potatoes, and steamed broccoli.  I had assembled the meatloaf a few days ago and put it in the freezer for later, so took it out last night, and will pop it in the oven about noon.  Greg came in from church and changed his clothes and went off for a bicycle ride.  I have to go later this afternoon, and pick up the white roses from the florist so I can make Darcey&#39;s bouquet in the morning, then go pick up the cake, get myself ready and leave here by 3:30 to go to Greg&#39;s office and pick him up.  It will take us 45-60 minutes to get to the Jefferson County Courthouse from his office.  We will be cutting it close, but he has an afternoon meeting that he can&#39;t cut out of.  After the ceremony, we will be taking the 12 people attending, to Outback for dinner and will do the cake there.  Then back to Greg&#39;s office to pick up his truck.

We ended up going to our son&#39;s house instead of him coming over here.  Darcey went out to get her hair and nails done and she left Annabelle and Scotty home and Gregory has a booster seat in his car for Scotty but didn&#39;t have one for Annabelle.  I told him that he is going to have to buy one.  I have one, because I kept Scotty&#39;s old one, when we switched to a booster seat in our car.  Anyway, he had no way to transport both kids.  Scotty is 6 and so I got him an 8 in his suit and dress shirt.  It was a perfect fit, and by that I mean no room for growth.  I asked if they thought I should take it back and get him a 10, but my son didn&#39;t want me too because he said he thinks the jacket would look too big.  He will be able to wear the new suit tomorrow and then Easter Sunday, but past that, I have my doubts.  He was strutting all over the house in his new duds and shoes, saying &quot;don&#39;t I look handsome?&quot;.  Grandpa and grandma had to concur that he indeed, did.  I will get pics of he and Annabelle tomorrow when they are boh all dressed up.  I saw Darcey&#39;s dress while we were there, Gregory pulled it out of the closet and showed it to me.

One problem we had was convincing our cabin steward that we wanted our sofa/bed to be a sofa during the day and a bed at night. He kept insisting that when you have 3 people in a room that it has to be a bed....at all times&#33; I finally took the sheets off one morning and turned it into a couch. He kept it that way until the next day when he made it a bed again....so I left him a note. From then on our wish was granted. Another thing that ticked me off was, on our cruise documents we had Early Dining (which we have to have &#39;cause of DH&#39;s GERD problem). When we got to embarkation there was Late Seating Dining on our cruise cards. I was told to talk to the Maitre D... I did...but he claimed they couldn&#39;t change it. Well....DH went down to talk to him (brought the document along) and somehow an Early Dining table magically appeared.

Joey - you may appreciate this being another December birthday but every year Ashleigh has a great birthday party with all her little school friends, neighbor friends and relatives but come TJ&#39;s birthday in  December although Deb always plans a party, at the last minute everyone gets too busy with Christmas and backs out.    So they have decided to celebrate his birthday in June now instead of December (at least for this year).    They have a huge yard for a party and will be having a baseball party.  Yesterday I went out to our minor league team &quot;The Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs&quot; to see about getting their mascot to appear at the party.    We should hear something in a week or so but it is looking good.    <br /><br />Cheryl - hope the wedding went well and looking forward to seeing some pictures.<br /><br />Deb - sorry your trip wasn&#39;t as great as you hoped but glad to hear you haven&#39;t ruled out Carnival for other trips.   Maybe the room steward was just having a bad week.     It is  a disappointment though when you are expecting a certain level of service and you don&#39;t get it.  Thanks for getting Crazie off to Debbie so quickly.<br /><br />Jenn - glad to hear you are making some progress with your Mom&#39;s situation.    Come by here anytime for a morale boost when you need it.<br /><br />Ed - are all your plans in place for your special suprise for Roe on Thursday.   I&#39;m sure she will be thrilled.<br /><br />Steve - How is gramps today?   Hope he is feeling a bit better.<br /><br />Falina - When do you actually leave for Reno and how long will you be gone?     How are the reception plans coming?    That should keep you busy for some time.<br /><br />Jim - the time you spend out on your deck will be extra special knowing all the hard work you put into it.   <br /><br />Once again, no sounds of movement from the bedroom so let me get Jim up and moving and I&#39;ll be back later on to visit a bit more.<br /><br />Make today special <br /><br /><br /><br />','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2009-03-10 11:38:39',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(353578,2278,1,18,352367,'2009-03-10 13:18:05',NULL,'','<i><b>Good Morning all<br /><br />Comming to you on my laptop sitting on my deck at a little past 6 cdt.

Yes Martha, I did get some sleep.  I was a litle too wound up when we got home to fall into bed like I thought I might, but I soaked in the jacuzzi for a bit and then laid in my recliner and watched my soaps.  I went to bed around midnight and slept until around 10:00.  It snowed last night, so I plan to stay in, relax and get my daily household chores done, but that is about it except taking care of all the wedding pics - they need to have the red eye editing done and I need to download the ones off Greg&#39;s camera.<br /><br />We got to the courthouse about 4:15 and they told us to just go ahead and have a seat in the courtroom.  They were running behind and had to get all the cases taken care of first.  We went in and took a seat on the hardest, most uncomfortable benches we have ever sat on.  There were 10 inmates sitting up front, in orange jumpsuits.  For the next hour, we listened to the arraignments of each of them.  The first guy was hispanic and did not speak english, so an interpreter was brought in.  He was arrested for DWI and driving without a license.  When asked how he pleaded, he wanted to know what the sentencing would be before he entered a plea.  The judge told him that it didn&#39;t work that way, but he couldn&#39;t seem to understand that - he insisted he would not enter a plea until the judge told him what he would get if he did plead guilty.  After what was obviously exasperation on the judge&#39;s part, the guy finally plead guilty and was sentenced to 90 days in jail.  The other 9 cases were all domestic violence - which is really what you want to hear while waiting for a wedding.  I couldn&#39;t believe it, in almost all the cases, the victim (wife, girlfriend) stood up asked the court for leniency.  They all said that it wasn&#39;t his fault, that he has never done this before, etc.  One girl even kept insisting that it was her fault, not his, because if she had not invited him over, he would not have &quot;violated&quot; her. I can&#39;t imagine living that kind of life.  One woman was pleading with the judge to send her husband home, that he was the bread winner for her and her children and that things just got out of hand that night and he would never do it again.  She asked for a reduction in bond because they could not afford to pay it.  Then he got up and started singing his own praises about what a good man, he normally is.  The judge told him that he did not know the man from Adam and so could not put much stock in his own assessment of himself, but if no one else was, at least he is concerned about the safety of the children and would not reduce bond.  It was quite an interesting hour or so.  8 of the 10 were hispanic, and even though I do not mean this in a racist way, I am just wondering if the legal system checks the immigration status of people when they are arrested.  We have a HUGE problem with illegal immigration here in Colorado, and it seems to me, that would be the sensible thing to do.  We had a case last year, where an illegal was involved in an accident that killed 3 people, including a 3 yr. old - turned out that he had been arrested many times, mainly for moving violations, such as driving without a license and DWI&#39;s, but nothing was ever done about deporting him.<br /><br />After they cleared the courtroom, the judge came down to do the ceremony.  I think it was very good for one not involving the spiritual side of a wedding ceremony.  He included Scotty and Annabelle in the ceremony.  He stated that after dealing with the kind of people all day, that he has to, getting to preform a wedding is his favorite part of the job.  We had a very nice dinner/reception at the Outback afterwards and got the chance to visit with Darcey&#39;s parents.  We had only met them once before, at Annabelle&#39;s 3rd birthday party last year, and we did not get to visit then.

About 1/2 the people on my FB friends list are from our church in Dallas.  We moved from there 17 years ago and I have loved the chance to reconnect with all of them.  Anyway, I was not going to post any of the wedding pics there because of how I feel about the whole tattoo thing, and frankly, I guess some of it was embarrasment because I didn&#39;t want all my friends to see them.  Tamra was in the youth group of our church and she was my sons babysitter when we needed one.  Now she is all grown with a family of her own and she and her husband are pastors in the Savannah area.  I told her that I wasn&#39;t going to post the pics but then Beverly (my best friend) wrote on Gregory&#39;s wall this morning that she loved him and hoped that he and Darcey were very happy and he replied that he could guarantee her that I would have wedding pics posted as soon as I got around to it and I felt kind of trapped into posting them because I didn&#39;t want to hurt him.  She gave me one of those parent/child lectures - only I was on the receiving end.  She said that there are a lot of &quot;tattoed people&quot; in their church and that people always judge them by their appearance and how that saddens God, because he sees their hearts and not all the ink.  She said that I should be happy that they do go to church and are raising their kids in church, and that they have found a church where they are accepted and there are people &quot;like them&quot;.  She urged me to look past the &quot;colorful display&quot; because God expects us all to be non-judgmental and that my son has a good heart and she is sure that Darcey does too, and we all have things about ourselves that we would hope that people would not judge us on.  Tammy&#39;s (what I have always called her)  is her weight.  She used to be a model when she was in her late teens and early 20&#39;s and became very anorexic and now her weight is out of control, but she is trying to get on top of that.  She is a beautiful girl, because I know her heart, and she just reminded me to always look at that part of others and not the external.  Out of the mouths of babes...okay, she isn&#39;t a baby anymore, but to me, she will always be that 15 yr. old who smiled as big as all outdoors...','Gregswife','Gregswife','2009-03-10 23:29:35',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(353709,4504,1,18,352367,'2009-03-11 00:08:06',NULL,'','<!--quoteo(post=353656:date=Mar 10 2009, 12&#58;38 PM:name=SCIROCCO)--><div class=\'quotetop\'>QUOTE (SCIROCCO &#064; Mar 10 2009, 12&#58;38 PM) <a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&amp;pid=353656\">&lt;strong&gt;QUOTE BELOW&lt;/strong&gt;</div><div class=\'quotemain\'><!--quotec--><!--quoteo(post=353625:date=Mar 10 2009, 08&#58;48 AM:name=waf125)--><div class=\'quotetop\'>QUOTE (waf125 &#064; Mar 10 2009, 08&#58;48 AM) <a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&amp;pid=353625\">&lt;strong&gt;QUOTE BELOW&lt;/strong&gt;</div><div class=\'quotemain\'><!--quotec-->Good morning all&#33;<br /><br /><br />Robert- what a disturbing way to start the day&#33;  Hope things are settled down now.<br /><br />  You Have a great day&#33;<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br /><br /><b>Thanks Martha Time to Retire when younger Police Officers mentality is just to shoot someone for stealing  paper makes us old veterans look bad Im sorry for their attitudes and if any of you have been subjected to that type of thinking&#33;&#33; Im putting in my papers Friday and retiring Ive had enough&#33;&#33;  <img src=\"http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/mellow.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":mellow:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"mellow.gif\" /> </b><br /><!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br />Robert- is the retirement something you had planned to do, or are you upset about what happened this morning?','waf125','waf125','2009-03-11 00:08:06',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(353710,334,1,18,352367,'2009-03-11 00:09:13',NULL,'','Good afternoon all&#33; Hope all the Crazies are feeling better today.

I am really going to make more of an effort to not judge people for it - I will be the first to admit that I have been really bad about that.  I don&#39;t understand it, my son was not raised around anyone who was tattooed.  My husband has always been in the corporate world and is fairly &quot;GQ&quot;, and most of our friends are the same, and our other son is the same way, so I really don&#39;t know where his fascination for it comes from, but I guess some things aren&#39;t meant for me to know why, just to accept.

It&#39;s hump day again and this week is flying by.     Just found out Heather &amp; Cait are coming up for the day on Sunday so it will be fun to see them again.   Heather is finally bringing her boyfriend up for us to meet.   Sounds like things may be getting serious as she hasn&#39;t wanted us to meet him in the past.     She&#39;s nervous we won&#39;t approve because he is 9 years older than she is which she doesn&#39;t know that we know.     (You can get any information out of Cait over a late night ice cream sundae)<br /><br />We sure do have a lot of December birthdays around here so a lot of you know how little TJ feels.   I&#39;m sure it won&#39;t be important at all once he is older but right now it is a big deal to him.    <br /><br />Carpet people finally came for their 9:30 appointment at 11:00, walked in, look and said &quot;what the heck happened here - I fixed that last year&quot; and left.  Now waiting to hear when they will be back to fix it.  Hopefully they will be back within the next couple of days.    I think they are finally getting the idea that I&#39;m not going to let this slide so maybe the third time will be a charm.<br /><br />Robert - You beat me up this morning.   Soon you won&#39;t have to worry about getting up early and can just relax and enjoy your day.    You will be amazed at how much better you will feel once that stress is lifted off your shoulders.     <br /><br />Cheryl - your pictures were lovely and the newlyweds look very happy.   The little ones looked adorable - Scotty was quite the little man in his suit.     True - tattoes are not for everyone but your son is a real artist.    Just seems like a very painful way to display his art.    lol    I often wonder if the people who cover themselves so completely with tattoes will one day look back and wonder why the heck they did it.    <br /><br />Shari - sounds like Winter is having one more spin around your area.    We are expecting a serious temp drop in these parts also but hopefully no more of the white stuff.<br /><br />Jim - The best thing about CruiseCrazies is our ability to agree to disagree without taking offense. <br />  That&#39;s what makes this place so special.   <br /><br />Steve - how is gramps doing?    I hope he is no longer in too much pain.<br /><br />Ed - you certainly have had a very varied career in your past.   <br /><br />Falina - glad the brace is working.<br /><br />Jenn - (((hugs)))) and  <img src=\"http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":smile:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"smile.gif\" /> heading out to you today<br /><br />Deb - great review of your cruise.

Having a terrible time matching the color though.   Guess I should have thought of that before I picked it.

Getting ready to go to Weight Watchers and then run some errands until time to go pick up Scotty from school.  My weekly Wed. picking him up and babysitting will be ending soon.  Gregory and Darcey have decided that she is going to quit work and be a stay at home mom.  As much as I love seeing him, I really think he needs this.  She will be available to take him to his karate class and he wants to play baseball in the spring and do a lot of other things that she said she will cart him around for.  Even though I won&#39;t have a set day with him, I think I will see him a lot because in the summer, I will be able to meet her for lunch and things, with the kids.  I am so happy that he is going to be experiencing a normal family life.  <br /><br />I had another of those &quot;could not sleep&quot; nights.  I ended up going upstairs to bed around 5:00 a.m.  About 8:30, long after Greg had left, I had a huge crashing sound which scared the beejeebees out of me.  I knew it wasn&#39;t the dogs, because Greg has taken to putting them in the basement when he leaves in the morning and then I let them out when I get up - the reason being because Sadie is a yapper and will just sit and bark and yap at the bedroom door, so he started doing that so I could sleep longer.  Anyway, I grabbed a gun (just in case) and came to investigate.  Turned out that the painting that we had bought and I had framed, had fallen off the wall, taking one of the candle sconces with it.  The painting fell behind the couch, where I had stored a 36 x 24&quot; piece of glass out of another frame and shattered the glass.  The sconce had hit the end table, chipping the wood and knocking the lamp over, breaking it.  So I will be off to Penneys after WW, to buy another lamp, to match the 2 remaining ones.<br /><br />Well, guess I had better get my butt in gear....','Gregswife','Gregswife','2009-03-11 19:11:00',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(353849,3858,1,18,352367,'2009-03-11 19:41:41',NULL,'','<!--quoteo(post=353843:date=Mar 11 2009, 12&#58;41 PM:name=The Skipper)--><div class=\'quotetop\'>QUOTE (The Skipper &#064; Mar 11 2009, 12&#58;41 PM) <a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&amp;pid=353843\">&lt;strong&gt;QUOTE BELOW&lt;/strong&gt;</div><div class=\'quotemain\'><!--quotec-->Deb: Thanks for the Valor info.

Here I am Cheryl.  The question is what are you doing up at this awful hour?   Unfortunately I was not sleeping in but computer was acting up this morning and I couldn&#39;t get on line.     Lights on my unit and router were flashing like crazy so must have been a problem somewhere along the line.    All seems OK now except I need my morning CruiseCrazies fix in order to get my day going.    lol<br /><br />Martha - HAPPY 38th ANNIVERSARY to two of the nicest people we have ever had the pleasure of cruising with.   Many more happy years to you both from Jim &amp; I.   <br /><br />Cheryl - I&#39;m sorry your Wednesday&#39;s with Scotty have come to an end but I&#39;m sure you will still see plenty of him and having a more stable home life is going to be so good for him.    <br /><br />Shari - sending extra prayers your way that Marc&#39;s biopsy goes well today and he gets a clean bill of health<br /><br />Jackie  &amp; Rose - taking a cruise to celebrate the end of tax season is a great way to celebrate but you sure are working hard right now.    Just slightly over one month and you can relax a bit.<br /><br />Jim - any new progress on the deck?    <br /><br />James - again, welcome back.     Can&#39;t wait to hear about your cruise.<br /><br />Ed - I&#39;m sure you are counting the hours now til you pick up Roe after her final treatment.     <br /><br />Jenn - sending (((hugs)))) and   <img src=\"http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":smile:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"smile.gif\" /> to you this morning.<br /><br />Carmen - sounds like a real mess at work.     Congrats on DH retiring.    <br /><br />Perhaps Carmen and Annie will appreciate the plaque I received at Jim&#39;s retirement party.     It simply says &quot; A retired husband becomes a wifes full time job.&quot;     (Jim didn&#39;t find it amusing either but all the wives who come in my house love it.   lol)<br /><br />Robert - Will tomorrow really be your last day or do you have to wait for the paperwork to go through.<br /><br />Since I&#39;m running late to begin with I should keep this short and come back later.   Need to get Jim moving and get some laundry done.   <br /><br />Be back later<br /><br />','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2009-03-12 12:24:00',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(353966,3642,1,18,352367,'2009-03-12 13:55:06',NULL,'','good morning to you all <br />i know it is early for me  i have LOT things to do today  i had to go in town today for my therapy and shopping, haven&#39;t gone shopping for while and i have to take shower and etc... took Pappy out  it is cold but i hope it won&#39;t last long. <br />i hope you all have good day  <br /><br />hi good morning Joey <br /><br />i hope you are ok  Robert <img src=\"http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":smile:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"smile.gif\" />  and Pappy gives you a woof.<br /><br />have good day everyone','lovelypinky','lovelypinky','2009-03-12 13:55:06',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(353971,2613,1,18,352367,'2009-03-12 14:25:15',NULL,'','Good Morning: <br /><br /><br />MaryLou, thank you.

Sometime when we come, I would love to meet up with you, but this trip is already all planned out for us.  Our best friends live on Lake Whitney, up around Clifton.  Their address is in Morgan, but not sure if that really is a town.  We will leave here on a Friday aftenoon and get to their house on a Saturday evening, on Sunday, we will all make the 2 hr. drive into Dallas for their daughter&#39;s baby shower, then to meet friends for dinner that evening, Monday, some friends from the big D will be heading to the lake with their motorcycle and we will spend the day riding (we will be trailering ours to Texas), Tuesday their son and his family are coming to see us and spend the day and in the evening some friends are coming over for a BBQ, Wed. we are taking the boat out on the lake and Thursday morning, we leave to head to Tulsa to attend my niece&#39;s baby shower on Friday.  I may need a vacation after this trip...there isn&#39;t much time allowed for just kicking back and chillin&#39;....I will have to wait until our anniversary trip in August for that.  We are taking Scotty to Mt. Rushmore in June, but again, won&#39;t be a relaxing trip, but it is all about him and I am sure he will enjoy it.<br /><br />Falina, glad that Dennis is making the run this week instead of the other driver.  Take some time for yourself and just relax, kick back with a good book and do nothing...you deserve it.<br /><br />Thank you for all the well wishes for the new family.  I will miss my regular Weds. with the munchkin but I truly think this is the best thing for him.  He needs to settle into the routine of a regular family and see that Darcey is going to be there for him.  His mom called me yesterday - it really bothers her that Scotty is so crazy about Darcey - she didn&#39;t say so in so many words but I could tell and Darcey told me that Scotty has told her some of the things that his mom has said to him about her and they are just insane, totally off the wall, in trying to turn him against her.  I did urge his mom to not use the child as a pawn in her own selfish vendetta.  When she called me, it was under the guise of wanting me to ask Scotty&#39;s teacher something when I picked him up yesterday.  I found out yesterday afternoon that I would not be picking him up...I told you that Darcey was quitting work at the end of the month, well I had forgotten that Wed. is her regular scheduled day off, so she was planning on picking him up on that day starting yesterday.  I told Leah that she would have to call Darcey or Gregory about it.  She kept trying to pull me into something that I thought was a totally inane beef with her and I finally told her that they are married now and I no longer have to deal with those matters.  I told her that I think that it is good for Scotty to be experiencing a &quot;normal family life&quot; as he has no memory of that from before and I am staying out of their business.  I told her that she knows that I love Scotty more than life itself and I will always protect him, and I think he will flourish in this situation.  He will be having regular family dinners around the table with his dad, new stepmom and sister and Darcey is very vigilant about personal hygiene (bath time, teeth brushing, clean clothes, etc.).  When he comes back from his mom&#39;s, he always looks like he slept in his clothes and hasn&#39;t bathed or brushed his teeth.  Darcey also makes the kids pick up their rooms and has a &quot;wind down time&quot; with them before bed, where they sit and talk and cuddle and then they read a Bible story and say their prayers.  He has always seemed so much more relaxed when he is with his dad and seems out of sorts when he comes home from his mom&#39;s.  <br /><br />Ed, I am so happy that this ordeal is over for you and Roe.

We came home to a huge hole in the wall in the hallway.  The story was that our oldest son was bringing his bicycle up from the basement and fell against the wall and the bike made the hole.  I never believed it because 1) it was January and cold as heck so why did he need his bike and 2) he never rode it anyway which is why it was in the basement.  To this day, I do not know the true story.  I recently asked them again, telling them that it has been 9 years and they can tell us what happened and they just laughed and said &quot;we told you&quot;....<br /><br /><b>Jackie</b>, you poor thing.

Livingston, the music executive who created Bozo the Clown and signed the Beatles during his tenure as president of Capitol Records, has died. He was 91.<br /><br />Livingston died Friday of age-related causes in his Beverly Hills home, said his stepdaughter, Jennifer Lerner.<br /><br />Livingston began his multifaceted career in show business as a writer and producer of children&#39;s read-along record albums for Capitol Records. He came up with the Bozo the Clown character for the 1946 album &quot;Bozo at the Circus,&quot; which became a hit and spawned a cottage industry of merchandise and the television series featuring the wing-haired clown.<br /><br />When he moved into executive positions at Capitol Records in the early 1950s, Livingston signed Frank Sinatra, then at a low point in his career, and introduced him to arranger Nelson Riddle. Together, the pair produced &quot;I&#39;ve Got the World on a String&quot; and &quot;Young At Heart,&quot; which led to Sinatra&#39;s comeback.<br /><br />Livingston left the record label in the late 1950s to work in television, where he produced the western series &quot;Bonanza.&quot; He returned to Capitol Records as president in the 1960s, when he signed the Beach Boys and Steve Miller and the Band.<br /><br />When Livingston heard the Beatles song &quot;I Want to Hold Your Hand,&quot; he agreed to release the single and brought the Fab Four to the United States in 1964 to promote it. Capitol, which was partly owned by the Beatles&#39; record company EMI in the United Kingdom, earlier had rejected the group&#39;s initial hit singles as unsuitable for the American market.<br /><br />&quot;He had great taste and judgment, as far as musical talent, and as an executive, he was always very mentoring, very supportive,&quot; said Neil Portnow, the president and CEO of the National Academy of Recording Arts &amp; Sciences, who worked with Livingston in the 1970s.<br /><br />In addition to Lerner, Livingston is survived by his wife Nancy Olson, one son, one daughter, and another stepdaughter.<br /><br />His late brother Jay Livingston, who died in 2001, was a composer who teamed with songwriter Ray Evans to produce such standards as &quot;Mona Lisa,&quot; &quot;Silver Bells&quot; and &quot;Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be)&quot; and the theme music for &quot;Bonanza.&quot;<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->','JoeyandDavid','JoeyandDavid','2009-03-14 21:09:39',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(354320,573,1,18,352367,'2009-03-14 22:17:59',NULL,'','Good afternoon Crazies.<br /><br />Wet and cool today but just checked the babies in the cold frame and all are doing well &#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br />Come on spring&#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br /><b>Jackie</b> -Mom still lives on her own and I have no control over her comings and goings - so far the &quot;powers that be&quot; think she&#39;s just fine on her own.

Today is DS Dave&#39;s  41st birthday.  Could I possibly have a son that old.     I wish we lived closer so I could see him today.   HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE.  I owe you a special birthday dinner.<br /><br />Jim has an appointment at 8AM for the silly foot brace that we drove 1 1/2 hours for and then found out we needed to go to a place 5 minutes away.    <br /><br />Had a great visit with the girls yesterday and Heather&#39;s boyfriend is very nice.     I still have a bit of a problem over the age difference (9 years) although the funny part is that there is the same age difference between Debbie &amp; Mike.    Those 9 years didn&#39;t seem so big when Deb was 29 and Mike was 38 when they met though.   I guess it is because Heather is only 19.  Jim really gave Art the 3rd degree and he just fit right in and Ash &amp; TJ really liked him so I guess he passed the test all around.   <br /><br />Jenn - glad you had a nice day with your Aunt yesterday.    I hope you relaxed to a while.<br /><br />Jackie -it&#39;s  great that you saw the launch right from your front yard.    They say it is quite a spectacular sight and I hope to see it one day.<br /><br />Ed - now isn&#39;t it nice not to have to run out to the airport today?<br /><br />Robert - sounds like you have a lot of cruise planning to do to fill your retirement hours.     The Panama Canal cruise is my very favorite one and I would go again in a heartbeat.<br /><br />Martha - last day off for you.    Enjoy.<br /><br />Shari - sending prayers for good news from Marc&#39;s Dr.    The waiting is just terrible.<br /><br />Falina - sorry you have still more snow.    It seems this winter will never end.<br /><br />I need to get Jim up and moving.     After his appointment I think we will head up to BJ&#39;s (wholesale outlet store) and see if we can spend more than Steve spent last week.   I&#39;m sure we can break his total easily since I have to stock up for our company later this week.   <br /><br />Make today special - I&#39;ll be back later.','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2009-03-16 12:00:39',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(354567,2542,1,18,352367,'2009-03-16 13:37:33',NULL,'','Morning all - yes unfortunately I was back in the recliner with the ice pack in the middle of the night... this is miserable.

To test mental agility, the study participants had to solve puzzles, recall words and story details and spot patterns in letters and symbols.

Have errands to run again today, so should be getting myself ready instead of sitting here on my butt on the laptop.  Jackie, quite frankly, I hope that Tampa takes Jay Cutler.  He was very well liked here in the beginning, but has shown his true colors the past few weeks.  Last season, everyone noticed that when doing press conferences, he had a habit of rolling his eyes and acting immature, but in reality, he is still a kid.  2 years ago, they drafted him right out of college and we all thought he would grow into the role of team leader.  I am sure you know that Tampa called our new coach a few weeks ago, just asking if the Broncos were interested in trading Jay.  Jay got his feelings hurt because he felt that the coach should not have even taken the call and considered it.  How stupid is that - of course you are going to listen to what someone is offering...doesn&#39;t mean you are interested in trading, but are still going to listen.  Anyway, Jay wanted an apology from Coach McDaniels for even listening.  Needless to say, he didn&#39;t get it, what he got was being told that no one is irreplacable, and he really started acting like a big baby then.  He now says he wants to be traded if Denver will not commit long term to him....he is a 17-20 quarterback who has never taken the Bronco&#39;s to a playoff game, so I don&#39;t see that he is in any position to be such a &quot;prima dona&quot;.  Over the weekend, he put his house up for sale and his parents did the same - which the press sees as a clear sign that they are hoping to move away.  Team conditioning and the first meeting with the new coach started this morning, and he did not bother to show up (some team leader, huh?) and the news just announced that Jay has demanded to be traded.  They said that Jay has left town as he feels that he cannot get any peace here - Denver is not favorable to Jay Cutler right now.  I really hope he goes to your team or anyone else&#39;s at this point&#33;&#33;&#33;','Gregswife','Gregswife','2009-03-16 19:06:20',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(354597,3913,1,18,352367,'2009-03-16 19:23:10',NULL,'','Cheryl...As a long standing KC Chiefs fan it really hurts to see the Denver Broncos having personel problems&#33;&#33; <img src=\"http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/rolleyes.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":rolleyes2:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"rolleyes.gif\" />   First the coach and now the starting quarterback.

To test mental agility, the study participants had to solve puzzles, recall words and story details and spot patterns in letters and symbols. It’s basically the same tests that are already used by doctors to spot signs of dementia.<br /> <br />In nine out of 12 tests, the average age at which the top performance was achieved was 22.

Have errands to run again today, so should be getting myself ready instead of sitting here on my butt on the laptop.  Jackie, quite frankly, I hope that Tampa takes Jay Cutler.  He was very well liked here in the beginning, but has shown his true colors the past few weeks.  Last season, everyone noticed that when doing press conferences, he had a habit of rolling his eyes and acting immature, but in reality, he is still a kid.  2 years ago, they drafted him right out of college and we all thought he would grow into the role of team leader.  I am sure you know that Tampa called our new coach a few weeks ago, just asking if the Broncos were interested in trading Jay.  Jay got his feelings hurt because he felt that the coach should not have even taken the call and considered it.  How stupid is that - of course you are going to listen to what someone is offering...doesn&#39;t mean you are interested in trading, but are still going to listen.  Anyway, Jay wanted an apology from Coach McDaniels for even listening.  Needless to say, he didn&#39;t get it, what he got was being told that no one is irreplacable, and he really started acting like a big baby then.  He now says he wants to be traded if Denver will not commit long term to him....he is a 17-20 quarterback who has never taken the Bronco&#39;s to a playoff game, so I don&#39;t see that he is in any position to be such a &quot;prima dona&quot;.  Over the weekend, he put his house up for sale and his parents did the same - which the press sees as a clear sign that they are hoping to move away.  Team conditioning and the first meeting with the new coach started this morning, and he did not bother to show up (some team leader, huh?) and the news just announced that Jay has demanded to be traded.  They said that Jay has left town as he feels that he cannot get any peace here - Denver is not favorable to Jay Cutler right now.  I really hope he goes to your team or anyone else&#39;s at this point&#33;&#33;&#33;<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br />Sheesh - on second thoughts maybe he should stay with the Bronco&#39;s&#33;  <img src=\"http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/ohmy.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":ohmy:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"ohmy.gif\" /> <br />','zebra','zebra','2009-03-17 01:49:10',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(354656,3913,1,18,352367,'2009-03-17 02:09:44',NULL,'','<!--quoteo(post=354608:date=Mar 16 2009, 01&#58;07 PM:name=Gregswife)--><div class=\'quotetop\'>QUOTE (Gregswife &#064; Mar 16 2009, 01&#58;07 PM) <a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&amp;pid=354608\">&lt;strong&gt;QUOTE BELOW&lt;/strong&gt;</div><div class=\'quotemain\'><!--quotec--><!--quoteo(post=354606:date=Mar 16 2009, 11&#58;57 AM:name=lashl)--><div class=\'quotetop\'>QUOTE (lashl &#064; Mar 16 2009, 11&#58;57 AM) <a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&amp;pid=354606\">&lt;strong&gt;QUOTE BELOW&lt;/strong&gt;</div><div class=\'quotemain\'><!--quotec-->Sorry, I couldn&#39;t resist, it is in my blood.
