Morning Kathy and Martha,

I wonder how Cindy is getting on? First night of the cruise already gone. They will have formal night tonight.

What time do Bill and Anne arrive? I bet you are excited to see them. Will try to give you a call tonight.

Got a great Eileen Fisher Irish Linen dress yesterday at Dillard's. Reduced from $268 to $67 It is a plain white shift, with an A line and a raised cotton bottom. Very classic/classy I could not resist it.
Now my sister wants me to see if I can get her one. So I am off to Dillard's this afternoon.

Here are the webshots from Spain and Voyager.

Aaaw shucks you make me feel embarrassed..........I have worked hard though, to get where I should have been for many years.

I put the names of where the places are and just changed it when it was somewhere else if hat makes sense. But will add to it as soon as I can and I have more to add when I get my sister's CD.

The circle was supposed to be a place of energy and renewal. I don't fully understand but all the locals were doing it so we decided to join in.

It was cool to see the QE2 but compared to the VY she looks like half of the back of the ship is missing. :lol

Spoke to Martha, Lee and Bill and Anne tonight. It sounded like they were having a wonderful time.

Work tomorrow. I need to earn some more cruise money.

Kathy I am proud of you. Keep it up and you will not be as tired. I just went and bought a ball to exercise with the same as the trainer on the VY had me do. Got to try to get the tummy flatter.

Martha, I am so glad you had such a good time with Anne and Bill. They are so nice. Where are they going next? How exciting for you to have some cruise ships nearer to home.

I saw some engineers from SC helping out with our power outage today. A whole convoy of trucks Sumter Utilities they were called. Thank God for all the help from around the country. A friend of mine who is from Kansas City Miss. had her power reinstalled by Kansas City linemen.......how about that. They have also come from NY and LA. I heard there are more than 26.000 crews out there trying to get all the power restored to the area.

Good morning!
Kate- Bill and Anne are in Hamptons, Virginia last night and will be going to Washington, DC, I believe today, for 2 days then they are headed home. Called us to let us know they had arrived safely. Such nice people!!
I haven't had a chance to check out your pictures, but plan on spending tomorrow catching up on everything. Can't wait to see the new younger Kate!!

Kathy- the first 2 weeks are the hardest then you just get used to it. Your body gets used to having a small amt of carbs. Hang in there; I know you can do it.

Have to go to work.............

See ya later!!

Morning girls,

Yesterday I was looking at the VY TA and RCCL had a special pricing which really tempted me. Single Inside cabin with air for $1208. I kept thinking about it and thinking , then poof it was gone. I think it might have been a Tuesday Special. Now I will have to see if it comes up again next Tuesday.

Kathy, do you know if they charge more for custom air? It probably will not come up at that price again, but if I did it I would prefer custom air. I know a lot of the folks who will be on that sailing. Marilyn, Barb and Jerry, Andrew (tocanada) just a whole stack of people.

Are you going walking today Kathy? I did my exercises with the ball last night. Got to keep going. Next week is Vegas and we have a big party the first night.

Martha, I hope you like my pictures when you get a chance to view them. I agree Anne and Bill are delightful, I will look them up next time I am in the UK.

Time to get ready for work. Have a great day.

Morning............

I have never uses custom air,Kate,but most times it is more than what you can book it for...............but once in awhile,it will be a better deal and will include the transfers............

Didnt walk yet today.......got up after 9 and have to take Holly to the groomer in a bit.............might just do the treadmill and /or the exercise bike later on...........

Its such a nice day out..................finally get to open the windows and shut off the a/c................been many months!

I saw where Celebrity was moving ships around.................some people were booked on them for Hawaii and Austraila..........cancelled!! and the people were not happy......................

Anyway,back later..............

oh ps...I bought a MP3 player so when I walk alone,at least I'll have music.....makes it easier for me............

It does state that it includes transfers. I just wondered since you can pick the airline if it would cost more. I guess the answer is yes. If............IF i did take the VY TA I would not want to be sent all over, to get to BCN like Houston-Denver- LAX- Hawaii- Singapore-Stockholm-Barcelona. I know they do that kind of thing. As Continental goes out of Houston as a hub I would hope they would take me the way I went last month. IAH-EWR-BCN

Congrats on the MP3player, now that should encourage you to walk. I also have a small i pod Lindsey downloaded some music for me.

I think this is Cindy's last night. We should hear from her by Friday.

Off tomorrow and the clinic I had the botox and Juvatherm at is having an open house tomorrow night. Guess where I will be?

Good morning!
I am soooooooooo tired! Guess it finally caught up with me. Windy and dreary outside..

Kate- good luck on the VY. I know you had originally booked it, so hope you get to go. If you are diamond, don't you get the custom air fee waived?? Think so......

Kathy- how's the diet going?

Be back later.............

Morning..........


Got up and already went for a walk in the park....was only 63 degrees when I left the house..............nice walking weather.............I did 2 miles......took 35 mins.......didnt do the pitstops today since I was by myself.......

Tomorrow will be a week since we started.......we're going to weigh in then to see how its going...........I BETTER have lost some with all this..hahaha

Martha's right Kate...........you do get free custom air as a D member.........I THINK you can more or less pick your flights.........like I said,I dont know too much about it...............

Think I may go for a mani/pedi later.............we'll see..........

Morning girls,

Kathy, I am proud of you 2 miles in 35 mins is very good. I have started using the ball to exercise with. My stomach muscles really ache today so it must be working.


I will see if the price drops again next week for the VY otherwise I will forget it. I bought a lovely necklace set for one of the girls I work with from a shop in Barcelona and everyone has been admiring it. It is made of Murano glass. It is almost worth the trip to BCN to get another. Now I wish I had bought more.

Time to do some work around the house. See you later.

Kathy- You are soooo funny!!

Well, just booked for my second job. Doing like I did last year; giving flu shots. Won't have much time in October. I think I booked almost every day off I had. Oh well, we can use the money for the air conditioners. =huh

Didn't win the lottery................:eek:

Congrats Martha, anything off is a bonus. Just came back from ladies night at the local dermatology and cosmetology office. All kinds of goodies give aways and demo procedures. It was fun and we won some goodies too. My skin should look perfect next time I see you.......................
