Not that my morning is any better...recevied a call from our son asking us to drive to his work site and pick him up and drive his truck back home...an attack of vertigo hit him as he was driving to work. At 6:15 Dave and I hit the road driving to the south side of the cities, get him in our car with some meds and barf bags, Dave driving DS's truck and me the car, we head back north to his house, pick up the GD as we get him home and DIL gets him into bed, we head to our house with the GD screaming in the backseat, into the house, take jackets off and she screams again for her jacket. Now she is sitting in her highchair, in front of the tv, eating toast, drinking juice and wearing her jacket. :confused:

We did get our same cabin and saved $1000 w/OBC$200...so we really can't complain. On this cruise we will be bringing our tennies and will be wearing those everywhere. Beach excursions here we come. :big grin: The Patron being streamed down to me sounds good...:big grin:

Later...

 


:shock: Not a good way to start your day for sure. Hope your son feels better soon.

Hope the GD takes off her jacket. Maybe she was chilly. They do strange things  sometimes don't they:P

Hope your day gets better.

JImmy went to look at it last night. He said they took the  construction fences surrounding it  are down.And they will side the house next week weather permitting.

Have to go out later to look at a few houses that have Exterior Crown Molding around the windows and doors to pick one I like. Why does it have to be so cold here today:freezing:

Because it is winter!!! :confused:   Maybe it more damp than cold. I find here when it is damp it makes me feel colder. Remember to take pictures to help with the decision. Have a fun filled day!

Nope, she still has it on...She asked to go outside so maybe later we will. Right now she is climbing and having fun singing and dancing.

I'm surprised my cousin loves it. Born in NY raised in NJ and went to Notre Dame in Indiana . Met a girl from IN and married and moved to MN.

I might add we know many people that live in MN and they are all very nice

She talked about having to call the States tomorrow, so I think she got the messages left for her on her cell and private messages. :confused:

Not sure if Fil used my TA from last year. She asked for the # last week just before she booked . But, I never discussed whether she used Jean or not. I did PM Fil Jeans' email just in case. Jean is great answering emails. So if Fil used her maybe she can contact her through emails

The coat did come off finally and now she is all happy and playing with us. Son crawled up the stairs and went to sleep. That helped enough to get some meds (meclizine) in and was feeling better but groggy. It is such a short lived thing but awful while it is happening. He was eating because he was starving. He said he would be over soon to see his baby but we will see.

You guys are a GREAT bunch of people. I saw your messages and PMs - thank you for the two who wrote me, VERY appreciated.

I just gor off the phone with NCL and I AM ON THE GEM with you all :banana::flowers::ooooh:

I no longer have the cabin I had chosen but an AFT on deck 8 I can live with and Jim can still drop the shaker in the basket from his cabin. :bouncy:

Pretty neat - I used Skype and the US toll free number and it worked. :smiley1:
