Another week has flown by and so far no weekend plans scheduled.   We had a terrific day yesterday - actually began Christmas shopping and got a lot accomplished before meeting some cruise friends for a great visit and dinner before heading home.    It was a fun day and I got some terrific bargains.   <br /><br />Sheri - love you new avatar.  It&#39;s always good to start your day off with a smile and you gave me one with that.    <br /><br />Cheryl - donating blankets to newborns is much more important than cleaning house.   (Unfortunately) the dust will still be there for you tomorrow.    <br /><br />Rose - hope your back is OK for your trip.   Sounds like you need some TLC and pampering on a cruise.    lol<br /><br />Shari - glad went well with the colonoscopy.   How is the baby doing?   I&#39;m sure your DD is very busy and appreciates any help you can give her.   <br /><br />Kevin - wny don&#39;t you tell us how you really feel.    <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes2:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> <br /><br />Ed - hoping you and Roe have a great trip.   Glad your classes are over for now.   Maybe they won&#39;t find out that Roe quit the group.    <br /><br />Steve - see, you take your eyes off the lawn for a bit and it adds a few feet here and a few feet there.    Hope you get your mower fixed  or replaced soon.   Sounds like you need it.<br /><br />Andrea - Yikes&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; Jerry will just have to explain to the courts that his wife has a &quot;very important appointment that cannot be changed.&quot;     <br /><br />Deb - what they did to Zack stinks.    One of our cruise friends just had a few days in October cancelled that they were using to come to visit us with the rest of our cruise group.   She was upset til she found out her boss cancelled her days off so he could take them himself - now she is livid - but he told her to be happy she has a job.    <br /><br />Carmen - Is DH working on any new projects.   He does seem to keep quite busy in his retirement.<br /><br />James - Not to add to your stress but just be sure that JohnG has your new address so you can get those cruise docs in your hands and put this move behind you.<br /><br />Donna - sounds like a perfect day at the job - wading pools and popcicles. - what a great combo.   <br /><br />Sue - Pappy must be missing all the company you had.   Did you family move to Texas yet?<br /><br />Time to toss in some laundry and unpack the car - we were too tired to do it last night.    I&#39;m going to box and wrap all the Christmas presents right now but I think this year I will put a post it on the front of the package (for now) to remind me what&#39;s inside.    lol<br /><br />Make today special - I&#39;ll be back later.
