Good afternoon, Cruise Crazies,<br />
<br />
Yesterday was the best day weatherwise that we have had in months. It was mild and sunny.<br />
<br />
Today is extremely wet with heavy rains. If you&#39;re in the city there&#39;s innot much to worry about except some neighborhood flooding. Most of that happens in the outer boroughs. New Rochelle on the other hand can face some problems with downed power lines and flooding. I&#39;m keeping my fingers crossed for New Rochelle.<br />
<br />
Also today, I have a good angel and a bad angel on my shoulders. I&#39;m debating going to Brooklyn for that church concert. I don&#39;t mind driving in the rain but I dread the traffic delays when I have a deadline. I may just send a check to support them.<br />

Thank you for your good wishes. I may need your positive thoughts if this bad weather continues and effects the airport&#39;s flights on Wednesday.<br />

It&#39;s a short checklist. What I need is for some of you to let me pack some things in your luggage so that I can maintain the 50 lbs. limit. <img src='http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':laugh:' />  <img src='http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':laugh:' />  <img src='http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':laugh:' /> <br />

I&#39;m in the city today so I shouldn&#39;t have too much of a problem. My problem is with the house in New Rochelle. I do have to go there this evening to pickup my tax return from my accountant. I have no choice.<br />

That was such a great story about your 4 yr old grandson. They come up with the best stories. My little 4 year old ward told me that he heard me say a bad word. I am very conscience of him and don&#39;t use bad words in front of him and try not to use bad words in general. He said he heard me say &quot;stupid&quot; to something I heard on TV. I realized that I had told him that it&#39;s not nice to call his classmates or other people stupid and that it was a &quot;bad&quot; word. He always says &quot;I can&#39;t use no bad words?&quot; I usually respond &quot;No&#33;&quot;<br />

I&#39;m still imagining you struggling with those waves on your fishing trip. I&#39;m glad you had fun but there were some scary moments. That fish that tastes like lobster must be a welcome relief for your husband since he can&#39;t eat seafood. He&#39;s found his own lobster.<br />
<br />
When you get a chance, please tell us something about the &quot;hookup&quot; and how&#39;s the shower? When you pay for a hookup, can you pretty much use all of your electronic equipment? Do you use propane in the kitchen or an electric source? Is emptying &quot;the waste tank&quot; easy and does a sewage hookup take care of the dumping too?<br />
<br />
Inquiring minds want to know.<br />

I leave on Wednesday, if there are no flight delays as a result of this noreaster weather we&#39;re having. There were 300 flights canceled in the New York area. I hope they get all of those folks out before Wednesday.<br />
<br />
Your dinner sounds good tonight, as usual.<br />

Have a good afternoon, everybody&#33;[/size]
