Good afternoon, Cruise Crazies&#33;<br />
<br />
It&#39;s 37 degrees here in the Upper Midwest.  Kind of a gloomy looking day but pretty warm for us for this time of the year.  It sounds like everyone had a great Christmas.  I&#39;m behind in my posting again, as usual, lol.<br />
<br />
We are planning to have a quiet New Year&#39;s Eve at home with friends.  I&#39;m making some hors d&#39; oeuvres for Sunday Eve, and for New Year&#39;s Day, we are having corned beef and cabbage.  Nothing fancy, lol.  For all you &quot;Dancing With the Stars&quot; fans, my daughter got us tickets to the &quot;Dancing With the Star&#39;s&quot; tour for next Wednesday at the Excel Energy Center in St. Paul, so I&#39;ll let you all know how it went.<br />
<br />
Joey...glad you had a nice birthday&#33;<br />
<br />
Mary Lou...I&#39;m with you...I hate to take my decorations down just yet since it seems I haven&#39;t had much time to enjoy them.  I know I&#39;ll have to take them down soon, though, since they take up too much room.<br />
<br />
Cheryl...glad all is OK.  You sure have had the snow in Denver.<br />
<br />
Jeanette...so nice to have you with us&#33;<br />
<br />
Elva...glad to see you posting.<br />
<br />
Princess and Joey...hope you can solve the computer problems. <br />
<br />
All who are getting ready for cruises...enjoy...it&#39;s so exciting to get ready for a cruise...it&#39;s a bit of work, too, though, like the ironing...Maria...bet you&#39;re glad that&#39;s done.   <img src='http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':biggrin:' /> <br />
