What an expensive adventure that is when you are blind.

What a mix.<br />Than if they move in with us we have a 9 mo old cocker who is hipppper.  So the next few months will be intersting to say the least.<br /><br />Their realtor is having a hard time of getting hold of the realtor for the house we just hope that it does not get away from them.  <br /><br />Good luck to all of you that are going on the group cruise.  The Connie sounds like a wonderfuld cruise to be going on.  Had I not booked one for Feb 09 I do believe I would be going with you all.  I wanted to go to St.Lucia on my next cruise but that is not one of our ports.  So I do believe I will just have to cruise again to get there.<br /><br />Back to work dealing with Medicare and Medicaid.

A great day to catch up on housework and posts.  Not much to report...just trying to get my shoulder, neck and arm feeling better before Isabelle comes next Monday.  She&#39;s getting bigger and heavier.  LOL  Such a sweetie pie&#33;&#33;  I&#39;m sticking to my diet pretty well, but it&#39;s going sooo slow.  Only a 1 pound loss per week...so ony 3 pounds lost so far.  I know that exercise will help, so I&#39;m hoping to be able to do that soon.<br /><br />Mary Lou...so funny about the lampost...glad it all went well.<br /><br />Joey...the gas prices are getting scary, for sure...hope you can find the right car for you and David.  I am following the CC cruise.  I am very interested...would love to meet everyone, just not sure yet if we will be able to do two cruises within a few months that year.  Will have to wait and see, I guess.  I know that the good cabins will probably be taken if I wait, but, I have to do it that way right now.<br /><br />Debbie...what great news that your DH&#39;s eyes are well&#33;&#33;  Glad you got a date set for your surgery.  I will say a prayer for you that it all goes well&#33;<br /><br />Sue...I am allergic to Ibuprofin, so I&#39;m not sure yet how the aspirin will go...so far, so good.  I hope you do well on the coumadin.  Be sure to watch for bruising, and be careful not to cut yourself.<br /><br />Rose...good luck with the kitchen.  I sure agree with you that a kitchen remodel is great for resale;  my neighborhood has been going downhill a bit, and we have already spent quite a bit with our downstairs greatroom, so don&#39;t know if we could get our money back.  Of course, if we stay a while we would always enjoy the kitchen.  We never regretted spending for turning the basement into a wonderful great room.  With our large families we have had wonderful gatherings there.<br /><br />Karla...good luck to DS and DIL with the house.  Hope all goes well and they get it.<br /><br />Cheryl...hope your idea works out.  Cheryl and AMC fans...I was wondering, too, why Kendall doesn&#39;t tell Aiden that Zach knows.  Zach is definitely acting too cool about all of this.  All heck is going to blow one of these days.  And where is the Ritchie storyline...maybe today.<br /><br />Steve...hope it slows down a bit for you at work and the stress eases.  Yes...it is so hard to see our dear pets get so stressed over the thunder and lightning.<br /><br />Jen...LOL...&quot;scared poopless&quot;  too funny&#33;  LOL  Yes..your doggie is a smart Collie.

Today I will be getting the nails and hair done and tomorrow morning we head down to my brothers in Carlisle for my nieces bridal shower tomorrow night.   We always have such a good time when the 6 of us get together and my youngest brother and his DW will be staying with us at my older brother &amp; his DW&#39;s house so I see very little sleep happening over the weekend.    Not sure if I will start the dock or not on Sunday but if not Joey Lou, Tonia Lou or any other Lou please get things moving.    (Not really sure brother has wire-less in his house.)

There are candles and yellow ribbons all over the place............They are having the visitation at the Civic center and are running shuttle buses back and forth. That will be for twenty four hours and then on Sunday the funeral procession will make its way downtown to the Great American Ballpark where the funeral will take place which they are expecting 50,000 people. All the local tv station will be carrying it. I am sure it is going to be very emmotional but they are calling it a celebration of Matt and of all the soldiers that have died or been injured in this war.<br /><br />Sunday afternoon I am making dinner for my son&#39;s 34th birthday and the family will be here.

That reminds me.....I still need to get a gift for the shower on the 3rd. Hope you have a safe trip and lots of fun with the family. I already took the before pics so no worries.

Her degree will be in Sports Administration/ Sports Marketing.  I know that she has put her ap in for the Indianapolis Colts ticket sales but not sure if she has heard anything.  She needs to work in her field of degree for a yr. and than would like to go back to school and get her teaching degree to work in a school as an atheltic director.  So at this point she is not sure yet either.  Right now the plan is after the internship if she does not find something with her degree she will continue to work at Buffalo Wild Wings full time (intsead of the weekends) as a bar waitress until somethin come up.<br /><br />Joey - I have to agree with Mary Lou in my part IN, piddleing on the patio means something that you should not be doing.

I sure do appreciate everyones views on different cruise lines, and there&#39;s a cruise out there for each of us.  Please don&#39;t take offense to anything that I am going to say..... this is OUR feelings and ours only, many folks onboard were having the time of their lives.<br />We had a very relaxing week and the cave tubing in Belize was out of this world - but the ship...hmmmm.  I won&#39;t be writing a review because there&#39;s nothing worse than reading a negative review, but between you guys (our friends) and us, this is not the kind of cruise that suits us.  We had an Aft cabin, the cabin was great but the balcony was teeny tiny, it just fit 2 chairs and a small table.  The food and service were awful in both the dining room and the Lido.  We NEVER had a hot plate of food, everything was luke warm.  The supper club was awesome, great food, service and beautiful location.  The shows were excellent.  The decor... was garish, dark, and medieval with low ceilings (except the atrium) unfortunately not exactly our taste.  Of the 17 cruises we&#39;ve been on, this was the first where the colors they used around the pool was a brownish color and medieval pictures on the walls.... doesn&#39;t quite conjure up the feeling that you&#39;re on the ocean.  Bingo was a rip off - &#036;20 a ticket for ONE game and then it was just a line, never a full house.  Everything was a &quot;hard sell&quot;.... drinks, bottled water etc etc.  12 miles out of Roatan we were standing on our Aft balcony and there was this huge brown trail in the wake of the ship, it looked like an oil slick.  The next day prior to the Galley tour the Maitre D announced that they grind up all the old food and feed it to the fish 12 miles out of Roatan. Hmmm, I didn&#39;t know the fish liked a diet of sugar, alcohol etc.  Just passed this &quot;fish feeding&quot; episode the ship did a 180 degree turn and we were headed back to Roatan.  they made an announcement that one of the ships officers needed urgent medical attention.  Later that night the Maitre D told us that he had severed his fingers in the engine room...... how sad&#33;  Because of this 4 hour setback we rocked and rolled back to Tampa at full speed.<br />We&#39;re happy to be back home and to be able to chat with you all again&#33;&#33;<br />','zebra','zebra','2008-04-27 20:18:56',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(283960,2066,1,18,279478,'2008-04-27 20:34:41',NULL,'','Wow jackie... so sorry you and Tony were disapointed....

We are thinking of giving them another try on a group cruise coming up next summer.  It may make the difference on which ship you are on.  Some have come back from Carnival after being away for awhile and said it has changed and they had a great experience, so it could be the ship, the people, the cooks, and many different things.

It&#39;s fun to go away but great to be back home.  My nieces shower was a lot of fun.   It was thrown by my brothers neighbors and they sure know how to party.   My niece did not come down to my brothers until Saturday afternoon, she had a call-back from an audition she had earlier in the week for 4 big  concerts in Washington, DC (where she lives)   We were just leaving for the shower when she got the call that she won the audition and would be giving 4 concerts in the DC area next year.   It was like the icing on the cake for the weekend - she was so happy.   The wedding is fast approaching and Laura, Dan and both sets of parents will leave for Hawaii on May 19th.   They will be married by Laura&#39;s Uncle on Monday, May 26th and then head back to Pa. for their receptions.   They will have a barn dance on Friday night - and a formal reception at Dickenson College where my brother and Dan&#39;s father are professors) on Saturday so it will be a busy weekend.    I think we are all a bit hurt that we will not be invited to the ceremony, but they assure us they will have tons of pictures when they get back.    Laura &amp; Dan both feel that the exchanging of their vows is a special private time between the two of them and shouldn&#39;t become a big spectator event and after all, making the bride happy is what it is all about.  <br /><br />Tonia Lou - you beat me to the computer this morning.

We missed you and can&#39;t wait to hear all about Azamara cruises.   <br /><br />Maria - hope you had a great birthday celebration with you son yesterday.<br /><br />We have to call the car dealership this morning and if all is in order we are heading back to Staten Island to take Cait to pick up her new car.   They promised it to her for today but on Saturday claimed they had not received the insurance papers so they had not gotten her plates yet.  If we drive to SI in the rain today and they don&#39;t have the plates for the car, it will not be a pretty sight.   Jim is just about out of patience with this dealership.

Lots of breath work (guided by the two instructors) Lots of he-he-ho-ho-ha-ha.  Then, lots of spontaneous laughter.  There were 12 in this session; equal men and women.  No talking until after the session ended.  Lots of movement, lots of play.  Final goal was to just be able to laugh.  Final outcome (for me) was I felt at least 4&quot; taller throughout my spine.  Some of the folks in this session have been to numerous laughter yoga classes, so I&#39;m guessing that you do something different each time.  <br /><br />Continued hot, dry (and windy) in Southern Arizona.

I bet Jim is furious.  Several years ago our youngest son got a car from GMAC without a job&#33;  Of course he couldn&#39;t make the payments.  Talked with GMAC locally and got nowhere.  Wrote a letter to the president of GMAC.  Things happend fast.  They got their car back, son&#39;s credit was cleared, and I got alot of enjoyment chewing on the regional manger.  Hang in there&#33;<br /><br />Rose....Your Dad is in our prayers.  Keep the faith.  My dad had quadruple by-pass surgery 15 years ago and he is still going like the Eveready bunny&#33;  Will be 91 in May.<br /><br />Tonia....Congrats on the settlement.  I sure you are glad that is behind you&#33;<br /><br />Jackie....&#036;360 for Gucci&#33;  That&#39;s why I fly my sister up here from Florida to stay with the dogs.

It sure flew by.     Our new doors are in and they are beautiful.   I love the one I picked for the front of the house.    It really brightens up the whole house.     The back door needs to be replaced - has a huge scratch and the paint is peeling off and rusting but the frame is up and will be no problem just rehanging the new door.   Home Depot offered us 10% to keep the door but we turned them down - we bought a brand new door and that&#39;s what we want.   Hope this doesn&#39;t turn into another battle.     <br /><br />Heading to Staten Island for the car today.    They assured us it will be ready with the plates on by 1PM and we assured them we would have the District Managers phone # with us so I hope all goes well.   <br /><br />Karla - good luck to your son with the house bid.    Our DD&#39;s sale fell through yesterday - the buyers backed out as expected.   They wanted DD &amp; SIL to put in a &#036;10,000 Septic system upgrade but the township wouldn&#39;t give them a permit for it - their inspectors said it wasn&#39;t necessary.    The good thing is the buyers were insisting on the closing before May 30th and DD still hadn&#39;t found anything they liked and  they had already decided they would have to buy something this weekend, like it or not.  So the pressure is off for a while and they will relist the house next week.   <br /><br />Tonia - so happy that all went well with the disability hearing.   Congratulations. <br /><br />Rose - keeping your Dad is my prayers that he is restored to good health.   I know you are worried about him - take care of yourself and know your friends are here for you.<br /><br />Jackie - hope you get some relief soon from your back problems.<br /><br />Time to go tear my kitchen apart.   There is a high pitched noise coming from somewhere and we can&#39;t find it.  It is driving us crazy and we can&#39;t pinpoint exactly where it is coming from.   We have narrowed it down to the sink/oven area but it has us stumped.  We noticed it late last night.  <br /><br />Make today special - I hope to be back later with pics of Cait in her brand new car.   <br /><br />','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2008-04-30 13:26:13',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(284481,2066,1,18,279478,'2008-04-30 14:18:18',NULL,'','Good morning Crazies&#33;&#33; <br /><br />Mary Lou sorry about DD house not selling  these things happen for a reason...I know and trust me I know when I say that..

For those of you needing to make plans or buy a gift for Mother&#39;s Day - remember it is only 11 days away&#33;&#33;&#33;<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br />so are you doing better??

(Glad to see that someone else takes pictures of the food.)<br /><br />Now that the airlines are going to charge for that second piece of luggage (per trip, per person), any &quot;new&quot; packing hints?  I have tried the totally black (you know women and their shoes) and that got boring by day 5.  I have tried same bottoms, different tops.  Did fine until I spilled and got dirty.  I have tried &quot;jelly rolling&quot; in order to cram more in (almost made the 50lb. limit).  Last cruise, I packed for 7 days (gone for 18) and did laundry x3 on the ship.  Not a problem except for the Celebrity Mercury doesn&#39;t have do-it-yourself laundry and I am highly allergic to soap.  So, commercial laundering might present a problem, for me - at least.<br /><br />I know that March 2009 is a long way away to even think about packing, but it is something that I ponder from time to time.<br /><br />Happy Wednesday.','DebbieandJerry','DebbieandJerry','2008-04-30 20:28:36',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(284569,2549,1,18,279478,'2008-04-30 21:16:06',NULL,'','karla after 6 months we give ya test on names and where they are from ..

Ran some errands and doing a mass cooking today, meatloaf, meatballs, pork roast, stir fry and stew. My DD is making baked ziti tonight. I try to cook all the main courses one day a week and haven&#39;t been doing that lately so I&#39;m always scrounging for dinner. Have to get back into my routine, it just makes it easier for me. <br /><br />Well the kitchen project is all set for the week of June 16. Have lots to do before that of course but at least I have a few weeks. I just can&#39;t imagine where I&#39;m going to put all my kitchen stuff for a week. Yikes, you really do accumulate kitchen things don&#39;t you. Guess it&#39;s a great reason to clean it out and since the kids are both moving out, I can give it all to them. LOL<br /><br />Thanks to all of you for your kind words, encouragement and prayers for my Dad. You all know how close I am to my parents from my mom&#39;s illness last year. I&#39;ll just have to rev myself back up again for the long drives, the cooking and supporting them. I&#39;m truly blessed here at Crazies to have all of you behind me to keep me up. Thanks all.<br /><br />Joey at the moment they are only concerned about the 1 carotid artery (don&#39;t know which one, I forgot to ask) but will do more testing to determine how extensive the trouble. Dad has had soso tests before but this is the worst so far. I&#39;m hoping for the balloon, but we&#39;re not there yet in the process, so we&#39;ll see. He&#39;s in great shape physically for a man of 82&#33; Dad is taking the news OK......<br /><br />Jenn on the way back from the store today I saw a caravan of Red Hat Society Ladies with flags waving in the breeze and I thought of you. Do you have a flag for your car?<br /><br />Gail, hope you have a pleasant rest of the week at work. Short weeks are always great&#33;<br /><br />Tonia happy that you got some good news at least from the lawyer. Hope you hear from your brother soon on your niece. Please keep us posted. My father will be the same way.......he&#39;s a comedian and a stubborn bull&#33; Search harder for a cabinmate.......we really want you to come with us.<br /><br />Steve glad you didin&#39;t do the sidewalk and you got to admire the work&#33; Don&#39;t you love HO associations?&#33;<br /><br />Wow Jackie those doggie hotels are expensive&#33; Hope your back feels better soon.<br /><br />Ed that bear must have some wardrobe.........Marylou are you spoiling Crazie? Azamara&#39;s food looks good but how did it taste?<br /><br />Marylou so glad to hear your doors are done and you love them. Sure hope you don&#39;t have any problems with Caits car today. Let us know what the high pitched noise is.....in case any of us have the same issue. We had a pickle jar in our refrigerator making a noise, drove us nuts&#33;<br /><br />Maria, I agree......Jason goes tonight. He just doesn&#39;t have enough talent in this group.<br /><br />Andrea so glad you joined us on the Dock. Yes we have regulars on this board......you&#39;ll get to know us all a little at a time, but we are all like one happy family. You will find tremendous support here as well as lots of discussions on various topics, no nasties on this site either. I think of it as home. <br /><br />Cheryl glad you checked in. We worry about all our Crazies when they go missing. <br /><br />Hello to all I missed.

If you have any questions about any of us, please ask.  We were all new here at one time or another but have become friends over our discussions of our daily lives.   <br /><br />The noise in the kitchen:  Well I tore my kitchen apart big time.    The noise was definately coming from the right side of my work area.   Checked all the outlets, disconnected the micro-wave, coffee pot, TV and cable box and still the buzzing continued.    Took everything out from under the sink - nothing but the noise was definately louder under the sink.  <br />Finally picked up the dish strainer in the left hand side of my double sink and the noise stopped.   Last weekend my sister-in-law,the Queen of kitchen gadgets, gave me a battery operated coffee scoop.  (Doesn&#39;t everyone need one of those.)  Well apparently the battery was going bad, the d#&amp;* spoon was buzzing and the noise was going down the drain on the left side of the sink and coming up through the drain on the right side of the sink and echoing off the cabinet.   Funny thing was I moved that dish strainer twice last night but I guess the buzzing was already working it&#39;s way thru the pipes.   Anyway my kitchen is quiet and hopefully I will get some sleep tonight.   <br /><br />Time to find something for us to eat.    I&#39;ll be back in the morning.','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2008-05-01 03:11:10',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(284622,2542,1,18,279478,'2008-05-01 03:39:08',NULL,'','I&#39;ve just got through reading all the posts I missed... wow too many&#33;<br /><br />Welcome Andrea, I&#39;m sure you&#39;re going to love this cruise board.... wonderful people&#33;&#33;  Isn&#39;t it exciting having another cruise planned - I just love all the planning.<br /><br />MarLou... congrats on Cait&#39;s car, eventually - isn&#39;t it an awful experience buying a new car..

The April dock is closed and time to begin another month.   April brought us quite a few new members who we are chatting with and getting to know.   Why not join us and do the same in May?   This is where we discuss everything and anything.   We share our happy times and not so happy times, vent a bit, share some good news and just get to know each other.<br /><br />Andrea - Welcome to the dock.     Any questions about any of us, please ask.    I&#39;m glad you have discovered the wonderful world of crusing and share our love of being on board a ship.   <br /><br />Joey - keeping my fingers crossed for you and David.    What a wonderful celebration that will be for you both.   When is the vote expected?<br /><br />I haven&#39;t downloaded our pics from yesterday yet but will get to it later today.   Lots and lots of errands to run today as we leave tomorrow morning to go to DS Dave&#39;s in Ct. for granddaughters First Communion on Saturday.    The Mass is at 10AM and Paige needs to be there by 9:30 and with a 21/2 hour drive from here (with no traffic) we decided it was easier to go up on Friday and not worry about any road construction or traffic delays on Saturday.   Still not sure if we will come home Saturday or wait til Sunday.   Guess that will depend on how long the party lasts. <br /><br />Do you mean to tell me that you all don&#39;t have a battery operated coffee scoop?    How can you run an efficient kitchen?   hehe    I told you my sister-in-law Carol is the queen of kitchen gadgets.  I don&#39;t know where she finds these things but she does.    She also gave me a clip that you hang unto the side of your pots and it holds the spoon over the pot so no more messes on the spoon rest.   Now that one I think is a good idea.   I&#39;ll let you know how that one works out.    <br /><br />First errand of the day is to run somewhere and get new housekeys made.   We wanted to call Deb last evening to go feed the dog for us so we could stop for some dinner on the way home but realized with the new doors she keys won&#39;t work.   We also leave a house key with out neighbor in case of an emergency.  <br /><br />I&#39;ll be back later on - in the meantime make today special and share a smile with someone.','cruisetarp','cruisetarp','2008-06-01 14:42:46',290770,2066,'JoeyandDavid','JoeyandDavid',NULL,814,-1,13009,0,0,0,0,0),(284686,2549,1,18,284682,'2008-05-01 14:55:15',NULL,'','morning... all... well yesterday was a chilly sunless day...i just slept all day how lazy i was ...<br /><br />well i got some good news.. i got letter from the WC insurance company and they are sending back pay for the settlement from 01/ to present OMG yaaaaaaaaa i can pay off my cruise for this year and pay a few bills.. and get to put some in the bank ... i was so excited... i guess the waying all good things come to those that wait ...<br /><br />Joey tht would be so great for you and David...<br /><br />Marylou can&#39;t wait to see the pic&#39;s<br /><br />Rose.. now the fun begins with remodeling the kitchen LOL .. just having gone thur it...

He would eat an entire Pot Roast if I let him. I portion out the food so he doesn&#39;t overeat and I get a break from cooking. Hopefully he&#39;ll get this condo he bid on......should know within a few days. <br /><br />Joey, thanks for the help with Dad. I&#39;ll keep you posted. He&#39;s part of one stubborn generation.......but his little girl usually get through to him eventually&#33;<br /><br />Tonia congrats on the back pay&#33; Yipee, every now and then the money comes when you need it. I&#39;ve already had a taste of the mess to come in the kitchen when I took the popcorn off the ceiling......what a mess&#33; I won&#39;t be killing Howie as he&#39;s got nothing to do but pay for it. LOL I get to deal with all of it........should be interesting. Congrats on passing your test.<br /><br />Jackie hope your session with the chiropractor helped even more today. <br /><br />Joey I truly hope that the Supreme Court gets their acts together so you and David can be a happy....legal....couple. A reception sounds like fun and I know you&#39;ll do it right&#33; Thanks for letting us know Carmen is OK. I&#39;ve been thinking about her.<br /><br />Sue hope you feel better soon&#33; I&#39;m sure Pappy doesn&#39;t mind the extra rest.<br /><br />Debbie hang in there with your foot, it will be over before you know it&#33;<br /><br />Andrea welcome aboard. Make yourself at home here with all of us. We are a very friendly group.<br /><br />If I&#39;m not mistaken Carmen(M) should be back from SC soon.

Well needless to say I drove that car for three years (while saving every dime I made at my jobs) than my sister got the pleasure of driving it.  Of course my brother got the brand new 77 Chevy 4 wheel drive when he got his license with the explanation of &quot;he helps on the farm&quot;.  Of course all my savings for two years I was able to buy myself a 6 month old 78 Camaro and I thought I was it in it.

Arkansas has had it bad lately.  In early April we had several tornados near us, 3 in fact.  There was alot of damage as close as 2 miles from us, we just lost power for about 18 hours.  There were deaths associated with those tornados also.  <br /><br />You can always replace material things, people you can&#39;t.  That is what makes tornados so scary.  They are so hit or miss, your neighbor can be blown away and your place hasn&#39;t even lost a tree.  <br />I have seen it,  My daughter&#39;s school got hit 3 years ago and I saw what got hit and missed.  It was if the Hand of God was protecting the buildings where the children where and destroying trees and buildings and ballfields where nobody was.  There was a house on campus 100 yards from the building my daughter was in, nothing but the slab left of that house when the storm passed.<br /><br />By the grace of God no one was injured at school during the storm.  Unless you count the cut I got climbing over a fallen tree trying to get on campus to get to my daughter&#33;  I also got chewed out by the Fire Dept. for getting on campus while there was still live electrical wires down,  but I just told them, &quot;Hey, you guys are stepping over them, so am I and I am going to get my daughter&#33;&quot;  They thought I was crazy but they had bigger problems to worry about.<br />P.S.  I am really sure they were not LIVE WIRES, I think they were just telling me that to get me to get off campus&#33;<br />Andrea','55ChevyLady','55ChevyLady','2008-05-03 21:04:26',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(285077,2542,1,18,284682,'2008-05-04 01:27:43',NULL,'','Andrea and Steve - so glad these awful storms missed you both.<br /><br />Steve..... what.... no elephants&#33;  We&#39;ll have to change that  <img src=\"http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":biggrin:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"biggrin.gif\" /> You haven&#39;t driven 4 wheel drive until you&#39;ve driven through 6 inch thick mud, slipping and sliding all over the road with an angry Mamma elephant barreling down on you at 45 mph.... considerable faster than what you can get away under those circumstances.

She did and she completed the entire 13.5 miles.  She was not the fastest but she was not the slowest.  It took her a half hour to just get to the start line for all of the other runners (there were 35,000 participants).  She ran part and walked mosted but completed it in 3 hr 15 minutes and was (get this) 26,789 to cross the finish line.  Her thoughts was there were still 8200 behind her.  Her legs were definately sore and still were yesterday evening when I talked to her.<br /><br />Mandy left yesterday morning at 5 am and will not be back to the house until 5/27.  Needless to say it was an emotional Sat. evening and yesterday morning.  The girl is not good about being away from home for two days let alone 23 days.  With working at the motor speedway she will be working 7 days and 15 hour days until after the race, that means no fiancee, mom or dad, just work and sleep.  She will survive and I told her this is just a test for me and her for October and after.<br /><br />My sons has officially sold his house.  Will have to be out by 5/17.  They made the offer on the other one and will know something about it before 5/19.

He is very excited to be replacing his Lexus that had 230,000 miles with a newer Lexus with only 88,000. he had his heart set on finding a Lexus. He did look at other cars but really wanted another Lexus 300 ES. I never met so many passionate people as Lexus owners.  OMG, they are all crazy about their cars.  <img src=\"http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":biggrin:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"biggrin.gif\" /> Today He was doing the run around trying to get everything done to transfer the car to us from the seller. Ran into a roadblock when the seller&#39;s title says the car has a lien on it. There really is no lien but the seller could not find the paper work.  after multiple phone calls and Paul going to the bank twice to pick up paperwork about the lien release- we still don&#39;t have it. The last visit to the bank, he was told their fax machine was broken. UGH&#33;  So, it is being sent overnight to Rochester branch- so hopefully we will have it tomorrow.  Then on to the DMV and bank to finish loan papers. Whew. hopefully, we will have the car by wednesday.<br /><br />No one has mentioned the Kentucky Derby. We bet on big Brown to win and yeah&#33; he won. That was fun and nice to get a little winnings. A shame about the second place winner. I felt so bad. what an awful thing to happen. <br /><br />Watched Jacob Sunday. So much fun.  He melts my heart each time he smiles at me. I had a ball but boy can a two year old make you tired. i played really hard and I fell asleep by 8pm last night.<br /><br />So it was a good weekend that flew by.

I really have to head to the mall though and begin shopping for my Niece&#39;s wedding receptions.    I have no idea what one wears to a Barn Dance - any suggestions?  I asked her what one wears to a Barn dance and she said &quot;kind of like what you would wear to a square dance - just a little fancier&quot; - Thanks alot Laura, that really helped.   lol    After I find that outfit I&#39;ll then have to concentrate on her Champagne Brunch reception the following day and find something for that.   If it were an evening reception I would be all set but it is at 1PM and is an outdoors reception.   Again, any suggestions?<br /><br />Steve - congratulations on your sons engagement and best wishes to the happy couple.   <br /><br />Gail - good luck to Paul with his new Lexus.<br /><br />Karla - great job on your daughters participation in the marathon.   Hope she enjoys her internship.  She will be home before you know it.<br /><br />Ed - congratulations to you on your election to the committee at church.    <br /><br />Sue - glad you are feeling better.   Hope your lungs checked out OK with the Dr.<br /><br />Cheryl - how is Scotty doing?   Haven&#39;t heard too much about him lately.  I&#39;m sure he is anxious for school to end.   Ash is counting down the days.<br /><br />Mercedes - If you are checking in while you are away - hope you have a great time and a good rest.<br /><br />Carmen® - Hope your cruise was great - we can&#39;t wait to hear all about it.    Hope you are planning to join us on the Connie next year.<br /><br />Maria - hope all is OK with you.   Haven&#39;t heard much from you lately.<br /><br />Tonia - hope things have quieted down at work. <br /><br />Andrea - what questions do you have about the group cruise?  We&#39;d be happy to answer any that we can.   I know for me, this is a chance to sail on a great ship, see some new ports but most of all to meet some of the nice folks I have met here over the years and finally get to sit down and talk to them face-to-face.   <br /><br />Joey - Send an e-mail to my cruising friends but so far no result on our group cruise.   I will keep trying.<br /><br />Rose, Jenn, Deb, Shari and anyone else I missed -  Hi&#33;   <br /><br />Time to get moving.   I had TJ most of the day yesterday so I got nothing done (other than countless games of Disney Bingo and Candyland.)

I am meeting a friend tonight to have dinner and go see &quot;Made of Honor&quot; a romantic comedy, so looking forward to that.  We have some severe weather predicted for tonight, but it seems like it may not happen.<br /><br />Mary Lou...I think I would just wear a nice summer dress and maybe have a matching blazer like top or silky blouse top to go with it in case it&#39;s chilly.  Marc&#39;s daughter had her second wedding outside (not formal) in the first part of June a few years back, and I just wore a nice sleeveless summer flowery dress with a silky button down blouse over it and it fit in fine.  It wasn&#39;t too fancy.  I would probably do something similar for the barn dance since it doesn&#39;t have a western theme or expected dress. I don&#39;t think you have to worry...just wear what you like and think is appropriate.  Just reread your post on the barn dance.  That is kind of confusing.  At a square dance you usually wear the fancy dress with big skirt and all.  I think I would call her and ask for a better explanation.  <img src=\"http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/biggrin.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":biggrin:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"biggrin.gif\" /> <br /><br />Jackie...never heard of Bordatella.

Has rained some and suppose to have more.  Worked last night and worked on Medicare billing and G/L questions.<br /><br />Hi Joey - Congrats on David&#39;s promotion.  That would be nice to have two pensions and retirement insight.<br /><br />Things are well here.  Kyle (DD) and Rachel (DIL) have begun moving in.  They will be here totally by the 17th.  They have not heard anything on the offer they made for the house.  My house is really quite  with out Mandy coming and going.  Blondie (our 11 month old cocker) is really missing her.  She is her girl.  Not to mention mom is missing her, but I have to get use to this.  Mandy calls daily, got the top of her ear sunburnt on Monday and it has blistered, and she drove the fork lift yesterday which she hated.  The 27th will be here soon.<br /><br />Jenn - Loved the picture of the puppies in the basket.  Reminds me of Blondie.<br /><br /><br />Shari - I want to go see that move also.  Gary will go see it with me it is a matter of finding the time.<br /><br />Jackie - Hope the Gucci is better.  We use to board our dog when we would be gone for a time but never had anything like that happen.<br /><br />Steve - Glad the back is better.

I don&#39;t put all the stuff on them that you do, but I made them for dinner on Monday.  I make a homemade chili (none of that canned stuff for us) and then I put some oil in a skillet and &quot;fry&quot; the weiners - I&#39;m an Oscar Mayer girl myself.  If I am eating the hot dog with chili, I will use the weiners that have cheese in them but I don&#39;t use them if I am eating sauerkraut on it.  Spicy mustard in the bun, then the weiner, smothered in chili, then covered with finely diced onions and cover it all with fresh grated cheese - my family won&#39;t eat the packaged grated cheese.  If I am eating it with sauerkraut, I have to saute sliced onions and then it is spicy mustard, weiner, sauerkraut, onions, and more mustard.  Boy, just thinking about it makes me hungry.   Hope all of you are having a good hump day.  Mary Lou, will look forward to the pics of Ashleigh and TJ - you rarely post pics, and when you do, it is such a treat.  Jackie, glad that Gucci is feeling beter  I would let the boarding facility know - maybe they need to start checking other dog&#39;s vaccine records more closely.

We have 2 maltese, and the female has always been good at the groomers, but the male was a real handful.  We always got charged an extra &quot;hard to handle&quot; fee when we took him.  About a year ago, my son started dating a girl who works for Aussie Pet Mobile Grooming, so she drives her rv type vehicle to our house and takes them out there to groom them.  The first time, Bucky did give her trouble and she had to wrap a towel around his head to even carry him out there because he kept trying to bite her.  I told her that she had my permission to &quot;pop him&quot; if he kept it up.  She said one whack on his nose was all it took and now she never has problems with him.  It does cost more to have her come but it is worth it.   Joey, we may not be with you physically on your birthday, but you will be in our thoughts.  We had better get to see pics of your big day.  Jackie, my thoughts and prayers will be with Tony tomorrow.  I worked my way thru college as a dental assistant and I remember the first time I had to assist in a full upper extraction.  I about passed out - the dentist told me to leave the room once I went completely white and started swaying.  I was in the wrong business for someone who gets so queasy at the sight of blood.  Tonia, I got my son all that stuff when he moved out the first time, he had a roommate who had all the household stuff, so I got laundry baskets and filled it with laundry soap, fabric softener, bath soap, toilet tissue, paper towels, dish washing soap, all kinds of cleaners, etc.  When he moved out completely on his own, I then bought the dishes, pots and pans, glasses, silverware, etc.  He didn&#39;t leave on his own too long - his girlfriend bought a brand new condo last month so against mom&#39;s wishes, he is living with her now and all of the kitchen stuff I bought him is boxed up in our basement.  Debbie, thanks for checking in - you follow dr&#39;s orders and recover quickly.  Rose, what did you come up with for Mom?  The boys are supposed to be cooking dinner for me on Mother&#39;s Day - we&#39;ll see how that goes.  Tomorrow is Greg&#39;s 49th birthday, so I will be making a millionaire pie once he goes off to the office.

We have had 3 cockers, the first one we had a yr when she jumped off of our couch and broke something in her back and we had to put her to sleep.  The second one we had her 14 years and just put her to sleep this past July, she was very laid back and a wonderful dog that loved to go boating, and camping with us.  She became sick last April and just got worse so by July we had no choice but to put her to sleep.  It was the hardest thing to do but when we did she looked at us like thank you for putting me out of my misery.  Now this one, she is HYPER.  I don&#39;t know if it because we were use to the 14 yr old and she is still a pup or what.  Not to mention she can be very agressive.  Hopefully she will calm down.<br /><br />A shout out to all the other crazies.

You know the ones that have a sentiment that makes you cry.  He is a guy of few words so the visit and the things he said and did were so important to me and made me feel so special and loved. Later in the day, I also got to see the other grandkids later in the day. Also a treat. Today, Paul made me a great breakfast and then we went for a long ride by the lake. We visited places we had not been to in some time. We talked and shared memories... nice time. We walked on the boardwalk, watched the windsurfers and had ice cream. tonight he is making me a nice dinner of steak and shrimp.

About 22 ft. long. He ran out of rock there, had just enough to get to where the walkway turns to the door, perfect&#33;  Couldn&#39;t had planned it better.  Would LOVE to carry on down the rest of the porch with a flower bed but have NO idea what that sandstone would cost or it you could ever find any that would all match it in size since this stone come out of an old abandoned home place. It was part of the fireplace so one side of the stone is scorced a little.  I love the stone, it has character.<br /><br />I haven&#39; got anything planted yet, don&#39;t know what.  the bed will get full morning sun as it faces east.

I had the best Mother&#39;s day ever.  The boys came over, along with my grandson and my son&#39;s girlfriend and her 2 yr. old daughter.  My older son cooked dinner and his plan was that the younger son would do the clean-up...I knew that was highly unlikely.  My older son brought me something from a place called Edible Arrngements.  It was a &quot;floral&quot; arrangement of chocolate covered strawberries and banana&#39;s.  My younger son, who did stop by Perkin&#39;s and pick up a french silk pie for dessert as he doesn&#39;t cook, brought me a dozen peach colored roses.  Hubby got me a dozen red roses and also the gift of having our wedding rings engraved.  We have talked about it for years and even decided what we wanted in them but never did it, so I asked for that for Mother&#39;s Day.  I took both rings in this morning to the jeweler who had made my ring for Greg a few years ago.  Now they both say &quot;Always only you&quot; inside.  Anyway, back to Mother&#39;s day - my son made a pasta dish with italian sausage, ceaser salad and garlic bread and it was delicious.  Then we went out and sat on the deck for about 4 hours.  The boys got out my grandson&#39;s atv and they all played out in the open space behind our house.  They were here all day, until about 8:30 last night and that was my favorite part, getting to spend so much time with them.  While we were outside, having margarita&#39;s, my son&#39;s girlfriend came inside for a while.  When I came in, I saw she had cleaned the whole kitchen up, so I really did not have to do a thing yesterday.  Sounds like all the mom&#39;s here had a great day....','Gregswife','Gregswife','2008-05-12 23:24:08',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0),(286618,3858,1,18,284682,'2008-05-12 23:26:01',NULL,'','Great news <b>Rose</b>&#33;<br /><br /><b>Joey</b>, we&#39;re still deciding about the group cruise.

Called down to Joplin Supply, a plumbing wholesale company we deal with, this morning to make sure everyone was ok after the tornado Saturday that claimed 21 lives and found out one of their employees, his wife, son, and mother-in-law were killed.  I never met Rick but talked to him on the phone many times in the last 11 years.  He was a very good man and will be greatly missed.  They have a 20 year old daughter,Kali, who was not with them.

Ed, I will especially send prayers to the poor young girl who lost her entire  family.   What a terrible tragedy.  <br /><br />Jackie - I believe you were planning a trip to South Africa in the fall.   Will you still be going or will you wait to go in January now when the baby is due?   Hope Candice has a good pregnancy and a healthy happy baby.  <br /><br />Joey - How did David&#39;s first &quot;official&quot; day on the job go?   I&#39;m sure he did fine.<br /><br />Andrea - we&#39;d love to see some pics of your rock garden.   Enjoy it.<br /><br />Cheryl - sounds like you had a great day with all your boys.    <br /><br />Nothing special planned for today but I do have some errands to run and have been driving around with some dry cleaning in the back of my car for over a week now.
