Hi MaryLou & Peggy Have left 2 messages and sent an email, but haven't heard from our TA! I can understand not working on your days off, but I do believe they should have someone on call for these type of things. They could check voicemails and/or emails even once a day. We will have to have a discussion with them on Monday. Do you think I'm out of line?? I sure hope the price decrease lasts until then. MaryLou- how's things going with the company and walk preparations?

Hi- actually I' ve gotten a new attitude. I am virtually going to ignore them unless they verbally attack me again. I refuse to bow to their commands on the other place. I will talk dribble and will have fun with my new cruising friends!! Peggy- actually, I am looking to get cabin 9092 with the large balcony. If y'all see it open up, please let me know. Haven't heard from my TA!! This is why I dislike doing business with a TA! I really like the agency, but I emailed him last night and called this am and left a voicemail, but he hasn't gotten back to me. I wonder how long the price reduction will last. I'm afraid to look!! We are on a very fixed income-( imagine that; nurses don't make much money!! ). That reduction will go a long way with us. Peggy- thanks for letting me know about the sale on Tues.; hadn't heard about it. Later......... Martha

Hi MaryLou and Peggy: MaryLou- you can't hide; Peggy and I will find you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So glad you were able to get your AFT. Maybe we will luck out, but I'm not counting on it. Just think, now your balcony will hold all of us!! Peggy-our excursion does do snorkeling- I haven't done that either. This will be a big first for me. I think I will try it so I can say I've been snorkeling. The site does say the vests are provided. I will certainly be wearing one! I was checking RCI last night and found the prices had gone down on our Majesty cruise! I emailed out TA and am waiting for him to respond. We may save $120!! I told you; this was all meant to be. Everything for this cruise has worked out perfectly. Not doing much of anything this weekend. Have to work 4 -12 hrs shifts next week and my friends from England arrive on Sunday the 21st, while I'm working so my days off will be busy. Will check in later.......

MaryLou- what happened to the September Dock? It's not there and says moved but doesn't say where it was moved???? Congratulations on your AFT cabin!! I know you really wanted it. What is your cabin number now and I will change my list.

Hi Mary Lou & Peggy- Just got home from work, but wanted to check in.... Peggy- Yes, I am very proud of myself because I am going to do the Stingray City excursion. I don't swim very well at all, but I want to go...I may not get off the boat, but at least I will be able to say I was there!! Mary Lou- hope your cooking went well and your company arrived safely. I know you probably won't be able to post much with your busy w/e, but know we are thinking of you and your family and hope the walk is a HUGE success!! I have 2 cruising friends in Houston and Bay City. I am terribly worried about them with Ike. Please say prayers that Texans will stay safe! Night................

Hi Peggy! Glad you made your way over here. You a troublemaker???? Nah, I have that distinction. If you knew me, that would crack you up! This is where I come to keep out of trouble! I really want to go on the Costa Rica tour that they have planned. It sounds great. If necessary, I will just sit in the back and keep a low profile. You are right about not many people posting. Sometimes it would be MaryLou and I and no one else. Not sure if it's because in the beginning we were told no dribble or what. One of the rules I continually break!! I think one of the problems is they have so many cruises and threads it makes it much easier for them to keep track if there is not much posting. I have asked them to change our info 3x but it has yet to be done. Glad you got to keep your grandson. Our granddgtr is going to be 10 in 9 days. I hate helping her with her homework. Makes me feel really dumb!! Where in NY do you live? I was born in Yonkers. I have relatives all over NY and still go up there occasionally. Well, I've typed a letter I see! I will be working tomorrow so I won't be checking in until late. Have a great day. MaryLou- be sure to get some rest!

Hi- Just back to check on you. Know you're busy getting ready for the company and the heart walk. Cooking good stuff?? What time do we eat??

Hi MaryLou- looks like I ducked the big one! Have fun getting your hair cut! Always makes me feel good for the day; then I have to do it myself. Volunteering today for Levine Children's Center; our new children's hospital so I will be out most of the pm. Found the Daily Dock and posted. Will be back later............

Poor TJ! I am glad they used the glue instead of stitching. It's great to use in that area. Maybe it won't show too much on TV; you're right though, it will let everyone know he's a "normal" 3 yr old! Not sure where the Daily Dock is, but I will try to look for it tomorrow. Going to bed now so I don't get in any more trouble!

Okay, I'm back and I really probably stirred things up ! I had Lee read what I wrote so if I get in trouble again, it's his fault!!

OH NO!!!!! What did I do now??????? Better go over there and see! I promise I am innocent!

But, MaryLou, I did give them a nice send off!! I thought I redeemed myself nicely there! I promise to try very hard to behave!

Hi MaryLou- I think I upset that someone again. I thought they had already left on their cruise, so when Peggy wrote that she had booked, I posted the list I am keeping of everyone. Whoops!! They don't leave until Friday. I feel like I am walking on pins and needles in that thread. I guess I will be sent to the principal's office again!! So glad to hear Peggy will help get the thread going! She sounds like fun!!

Jeff- thank you so much for sharing the video. It was awesome and we are really looking forward to cruising the PC!

All the D1's on JOS for our cruise are sold out!! There goes your aft and me in 9092!!

Good morning, MaryLou! Thanks for the email and explanation. I will respond shortly. Your story is amazing! I know you will be having a busy week this week so good luck. Sorry to hear the Dr. didn't have any more meds for you to try. We may be babysitting this afternoon. Always good to see the girls. Will try to check back later.

Hi Mary Lou- The weather was wonderful and the wedding beautiful. It was really nice to get away and see family. How did your grandchildren get involved with the AHA? I used to be in cardiology! Spent 19 years in one way or another in cardiology. When we get cardiac pts in our urgent care, everyone lets me do my thing!! I think that's wonderful that they and you are involved. Good luck feeding the masses!! I need to check the other thread; you are right, we will be spending time with them and would like to get to know them somehow. Glad to hear your friend has booked. Does she post?? Guess I will go check it out! Take care and I hope the Dr. pulled something magical out of her bag for you!!

Hi Mary Lou- Well, we are going to head out shortly. Hanna made landfall in North Myrtle Beach and we are driving to Myrtle Beach!! Hopefully, as we drive down things will improve. One road that we know of flooded. Yeah!!! The other thread had some action. Glad you posted. Maybe it will wake some up. Now that the other person is going on a cruise, I may post some. Hope you have a great weekend

Got my hair done; trying to grow a bob! Don't know if I have the patience; we'll see. Still have to pack since I work 12 hrs. tomorrow. We are supposed to leave a 6 am Sat. We will be fighting Hanna so wish us luck!! Have a good weekend and I'll talk to you on Monday!

Yeah, I checked this am and no one else is posting now. It's a shame 1 person seemed to drive everyone away!! Will see what happens. Sometimes elderly people get that way; demanding everything be their way. It's sad.

Hi Mary Lou- MMO is Mother's Morning Out. This year she goes from 9-1 and has lunch there. She goes Tues, Wed, Thurs. Also includes art and tumbling. She has no kids her age in the neighborhood so this is a big deal to her! Glad to hear your Ashleigh has an "older man" to look out for her!! Not doing anything much in Aruba, unless something jumps out at us. We are not there that long, so will look around and hang out at the beach for awhile. It's our downtime island!! Have never been there so we would like a tour of some sort, but haven't found anything special. Have a haircut today and have to pack for this w/e since I'm working again tomorrow. Have a good day....

Hi Mary Lou- Happy to hear Ashleigh has decided to return for day 2!! Our Ashley went to MMO today and she has a new friend; George!! She colored, played and said she is going back tomorrow, also, so I guess we are set!! I have Christmas presents all over right now.....after company comes and goes, we will be able to spread everything out. For right now, it's thrown all over! Have to work tomorrow so I hope you have a great day!

Good morning, Mary Lou- I have to work today and tomorrow so probably won't get a chance to be on until tonight or tomorrow night. Have a good day!

Hi Mary Lou- glad you had a good day shopping! Poor Jim, I bet he was in shock! I have all the clothes shopping done for the grandkids and some toys. Need to get moving on the rest! I agree about RCI. I read on one of the threads that more cuts are coming. I've already told our TA that after we make Diamond, we will be open to cruising other lines. RCI is getting too family oriented to the detriment of others! They have to be the biggest and have the most on their ships and that just doesn't appeal to us. It's a shame. I really liked them in the beginning. Worried about the wedding we are supposed to go to this w/e in Murrells Inlet, SC. Our reservations are in Myrtle Beach and we were driving down Sat. am. Will have to really keep an eye out for Hannah.

Hi Mary Lou- Enjoy your shopping!! Did you see that RCI is doing away with PC cruises after April, 2009? They have taken the cruising PC and Cristobal Pier out and replaced it with all day in Colon, Panama. We are soooooo lucky!! Wonder what is really going on with RCI; first, they do away with RT Hawaii cruises, now partial PC cruises. People are NOT happy!
