It's Monday!!!!! <sigh>

[DougR.]

Good morning from the Jersey Shore. First day back to work after cruise. I can hardly wait!!!! Work week is going to be interesting with the Convention going on in NYC. I hate interesting, it usually means getting home late. Hope everyone has a great day and week ahead!!!

Good Monday Morning Cruise Mates!! It is going to be a hot one here in the Lakes Region of NH. Back to work today after a weekend away at the cottage in Orange Ma. Hot and steamy there too but relaxing. Have a great day all.

Have a great day!

Good Monday from Ohio. Today is only going to be high of 76. Doug be sure to tell us all about your cruise. Everyone have a GREAT day.

[MaryLou]

Good morning all! Doug...welcome back to reality....nothing left to do but plan the next cruise! We are getting the effects of Gaston here this morning...but for us it is only rain...no wind. So here we go with another rainy Monday...seems to be the norm lately.
I have a busy morning ahead...tomorrow is payday...so I'd better get the checks done!
Have a great day.

[Caribbeancats]

Good Morning Everyone
Another Monday; another day closer to the next cruise. To make Monday worse than what it is, I walked out & left my coffee at home. What a way to start the day.
Ya'll have a good one.

Mornin' all,

I've been busy wringing my clothes out this weekend. Man, was it ever muggy! With temps in the mid 80's and humidity in the 90's it felt like Florida. <G> With those temps, it felt like we were on a cruise, but I couldn't find the Calypso Band. Bummer!
We were almost tempted to get the air conditioner out, but it's supposed to cool off tonight, so we roughed it for a couple of nights.

Hope everybody had a good weekend.

Have a great day!

Good morning from swfl....just read the post from Jim about hurricane Frances..I know most people here can not take another hit like Charly..I am leaving saturday to fly to CO but if we have a hurricane coming I am not sure what I will do. I don't want to see another hurricane thats for sure....Taking oldest daughter to the post office today and she wanted to visit the dollar store. Baby Aiden is getting big and he is talking back to you now <yeah they start early> it is so cute what comes out of his mouth...

I miss my cat but I know I did the right thing. My dh put away the rest of her stuff last night and cleaned up some blood in the tub..she was bleeding a lot and layed in the tub for some reason. I wish everyone a nice monday and I know I am counting the days until I will be on the ship.....

Good Morning Everybody,
Yes, it's Monday, and my boss leaves today for 3 weeks. Of course, he'll have a conference tacked on to his vacation at Lake Junaluska, NC. So, I'll be the "Activities Presence" while he's gone.
It's still slightly overcast down here in Avon Park Fl. Trevor has already done his walking and running and says it's very humid outside. We're keeping an eye on Hurricane Frances,but will be really tuned in at the end of the week. I don't want anything to interfere with our cruise in 3 weeks.

Better go for now, as I'm trying to eat my oatmeal and drink my coffee and type.DH "let" me sleep in this morning, and I didn't wake up until 7:30. Yesterday afternoon and evening our server was down again. I don't understand what's happening there. And, DH was on here in the AM so I didn't have the chance to say hello.

Bye for now. Lynne

Good morning from Ohio. It's going to be pretty decent here today, not real hot. A good day for me to get some work done out in my yard. I worked all weekend so I am OFF today YAY!!

Carol - Looks like a good week weather-wise for us Buckeyes

[Tweety]

Good morning Cruisemates. ML we're just getting rain here too I believe, really can't complain much we had a really nice week and a georgeous weekend.

Ed you have my full sympathies as does anyone who has to go into the city this week. I'm sure it will be a zoo getting around in the city and getting in and out. Too bad you aren't on a cruise this week.

Have a good day everyone.

[Mike M]

Good morning everyone from the Land of 10 days of Summer. It is going to be another below normal day here. It is also going to be a busy one. Betty has to go into the hospital for a quick check on the old gall bladder. It's just a CT, so not a big deal.

After that it's off to get a second opinion on our son and his back. The shot last Wednesday helped but not too much. He is more comfortable laying down but still can't stand or walk for more than a minute or two. We had a long talk yesterday and put together a plan so he can get his clients taken care of and get the surgery done at the same time.

Grandpa's job during this is to be the official "Ramie Wrangler" and keep our granddaughter occupied. This should be easy. We are the same mental age. We will have to take her with because her mom and dad have a course they are teaching to other vets on avian (bird) blood transfusion. Did you know you can give a pigeon, parrot blood and vice versa? :-)

I hope everyone has a great day.

Sue: Be careful about teaching the cute stuff to Aiden. I taught Ramie the raspberries and guess what she is now doing to everyone she meets? <VBG> Today we'll work on when to use it.

Take care,
Mike

Good Morning Mates..another day and another dollar..make me scream and make me holler...>G<..Hope all of you are going to have a good week..It sure is hard to come back to work after a good, long weekend...But my back is lots better after a full day on the couch and heating pad yesterday..and Oh yea..the meds. Mike I can sure symp with your son and his back problems. Hope everything works out for him. I am really watching the weather because of all you Family members down there In Fla. Boy you guys dont need another hit. Praying that it will take a hard right hand turn away.
Have a great day Mates and please stay safe.

Hope we hear from VTjen today and her surgery

Morning, cruisers. It's Monday, ugh. The 3-day weekend can't get here soon enough. I need to keep repeating, work-live-cruise, work-live-cruise. Having a delayed attack of PCD. The CM Pirates of the Caribbean cruise next February just seems way too far away. I may need a fix before that.

Pretty good weekend I guess, little of this and that. Bought a new refrigerator, washer and dryer (more cruise $ than I care to calculate). But, will enjoy them too. That is if we ever get to move in to our new home!

Ya'll be good and watch out for Frances.

[dezertcruzer]

Good Morning, Cruise Mates, from the Arizona desert, where the dry air and high temperatures are back again! Supposed to be 107 today! Ugh! Oh well, this should be on the downswing here very soon.

Jose and I had a great Sunday together, and now it's back to work for me. His days off are Sunday and Monday, so he's still sleeping! !

Have a wonderful week, and celebrate the glory of being alive!

edited to add:
Mermaid - chase those PCDs away with a short little jaunt with the Chicks on the Majesty of the Seas!

Good morning all. We had a great long weekend trip visiting my parents. Unfortunately, I have developed a cold and now feel kinda "out of it."

I don't have time to catch up on all the posts I missed, so I hope everyone is doing well.

Cheers,
Michelle P.

hi all from derry, nh.

we are warm and muggy here. kids went back to school today!!!! yahoo!!!!

we're keeping our fingers and toes crossed that frances goes out to sea!!

[Kuki]

Good Morning cruisemates! We're unsure if it's going to be muggy and warm, or cool and showery in Calgary. The weather gods are acting strange. Though we did have a very nice weekend.

My business partner is off in New York this week. Yup, told her she was NUTS to be in the city during the convention.... so I think I may be the happier of the two, working <G>

A short shopping stop for supplies on my way in this morning, for the start of what I hope is an uneventful week.

Good Monday CMs, Hope everyone had a nice weekend and this week goes by fast and without anything happening down here in SE Florida. Keeping one eye on the weather channel for sure!! Hot and humid today. Have a great day.

Good morning from Orlando. I'm off on Monday's but no more sleeping in for me.....had to take my son to school since my daughter is off at college now and he doesn't have his license yet. Oh well, it's good bonding time, right?
Keeping an eye on Frances. I especially didn't like the map one of the stations showed last night which showed Charley's route over Florida and then Frances' possible route and they formed a big X right over Orlando.

Good morning eveyone from gorgeous SE Wisconsin. Woke up way too early this AM because of some minor road fixing going on right outside my house.......definitely didn't know they were going to be doing this today.....so I got up early and will take a long nap later before going to work.

Have a great day everyone!

Doug - sorry you have to go back to work...........bummer!

[Phyllbo]

Good morning from the other Wisconsinite. It may be gorgeous at Lisa's house, but its cold and cloudy in my neighborhood. AH, but life is good anyway.

VTJen, I hope you are doing ok. You're in my thoughts and prayers. Let us know how things are going if you are up to it.

I'll be keeping my eyes on Frances all week too. Florida doesn't need another disaster, nor does anyone else.

Have a good one all.

Phyll
