Carmen - welcome&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;<br /><br />Love your poetry.  I write too - usually when I can&#39;t sleep - then I doze off and write it down from memory in the morning.  Weird how the mind works....when it works  <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":laugh:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> <br /><br />Sounds like you should be writing your life story though - some kind of interesting lady  <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/thumbup.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumbup:" border="0" alt="thumbup.gif" /> <br /><br />Maria - you a pity party - I very much doubt it LOL.  Do they plan to do laparoscopic surgery?  I was up and about the next day - when no one was looking - had to milk it for a while  <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wink2:" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> <br /><br />Got my tree up and all the rest of the house decorated - <!--coloro:#006600--><span style="color:#006600"><!--/coloro-->&quot;It&#39;s beginning to look a lot like Christmas&quot;.<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--><br /><br />Now I&#39;m pooped so off the bed to read &quot;The Santa Cruise&quot; - hope it&#39;s as good as it sounds.<br /><br />Take care all - talk at you tomorrow - after Mom and I make our centerpieces.
