Ahhhh, home.  There's something to be said about sleeping in your own bed after a week or so.  This cruise was different than any other I've ever gone on.  For one thing, I had dancing partners!  And lots of them!  Sometimes we were the only ones up on the stage, sometimes not.  One time there was one brother and three of us girls whooping it up on the top deck dance stage, and this guy came up and asked my bro if he needed any help?  LOL  I guess it did look like he had a harem.....  So, I had yet another dance partner.  Nice.....  Yes, Brian, I danced, and danced, and.......  There are pi

Yikes!  2 for 1 internet minutes!!!!  Yay!  I said I was gonna dance and I have been a dancing fool!  I know how to "make some noise" too!  Tonight is a kinda do your own thing night, booooo Carnival.  And the weather didn't cooperate today, either.  Well, I guess I am sunburned enuf.  We went to the beach anyways.  I don't snorkle, but everyone else did.  I was happy just to sit and relax.  I needed relaxation after the shopping I did all morning!  Not that I bought anything, but I got to watch a pro bargain with a shopkeeper and walk away!!!  It was all in spanish, but in the end she told

I didn't think I would blog on my cruise, cuz then internet sux and is sooo expensive.  Not only do I pay per minute, but, because it is bouncing off a satellite (their excuse) it is soooooo slow, so it's like paying for 3 mins to do 1 min worth of stuff.  Got it?  Nah, didn't think I was all that clear.  Doesn't matter, anyways.  This is the family I have gotten to see on this cruise:  2 brother and significant others, 2 nieces, one brought her hubby, the other didn't, a great (or is that grand?) nephew that is soooo cute, 2 years old.  And, 2 ex-sisters-in-law, one I still consider a sist

Oh yeh, that's how it went, all right!  It is 5:00 and I am all packed.  Suitcases are closed, zipped, tagged and ready to go.  Who did the packing?  Me, of course.  Hubby did indeed start in with all the questions.....How many shirts should I take?  Green or yellow?  What time are we getting up?  Should I take an extra pair of jeans?  One pair of "dress" pants enuf?  Do I need black socks for any reason? etc.  I finally told him to go do something else and quit hovering.  He wasn't helping at all and just making my headache worse!  Yeh, and, should we take some ibuprofen?  YES!!!!!!!  Now,

I'm getting out of bed at, um, 4:00 am tomorrow to get to the airport and fly to Tampa.  Once I get there, I will wait, wait, and wait for a transfer to the ship.  Then, the eating binge begins!  But, It is 7:00 on the day before.  Have I packed yet?  No.  Has hubby packed yet?  No.  Are all the errands, notifications, and call to the daughter done?  No.   Thus, the definition:
