Those that have confirmed but have not returned (only about 3-4 of you single travelers) Elisa's messages for return call, please please please PM her (gadgetlady) or call her. She has left several messages for you without return information. THANKS BUNCHES!!! SOON WE WILL BE BASKING ON A CRUISE!!! YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

P.S. Is it June yet?

Josette.....

You are going to be looking at about $250-$270 for the round trip flight out of Detroit. (Southwest Airlines) , $225-$250 out of Grand Rapids (Continental and Northwest Airlines), $240 - $270 out of Lansing (northwest airlines, united or delta).

You will just have to wait for the 330 advance to open then just book it online. But it shouldn't be more than those prices unless fuel does crazy prices again. I went to www.travelocity.com and http://www.bookingbuddy.com/

So depends on when your going to fly in, if you are going to stay with someone here, and if you need transfers. We do have a lot of bandsters that are opening their hearts, homes and vehicles to out of state travelers! Check the postings and maybe PM one of them? We sure would love to have ya come!!

Alison, You are officially our farthest traveler!! All the way from Greece to the US to cruise with your LBT buddies! YOU ROCK!!

Only you have the power to use the force Luke. Look deep young butterfly and you will have the answer you seek to slay the dragon.

Well I must say, I love a good stiffie.

I did and it was fine.

NO seeds though. Not even those white ones in seedless.

1. I would like to start toning and shaping now.

2. I know I am being greedy, but I want that last 15 lbs GONE!

3. Again greedy, but I want to be a size 9 or solid 10

4. Wearing a bikini by the time the LBT cruise comes around next June!

Good job!!

I did most of my "losing weight sizes" off of ebay. Cheaper and you can resell them. Although I had kept most of my "growing" sizes so I was able to just shrink the closet as needed.

Baaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh.... I don't need no stinkin' man! I can be a perv all by myself. I may be married but hubby knows i like to get my flirt on! I can look, I can talk, but no no to touch! I abide by the rules!

I once did a videotape with me and hubby. Not as sexy as I thought it was gonna be. I was like "OH MY GOD, LOOK AT MY BUTT!!!" And it kinda made me picture a monkey f888ing a beachball. It just wasn't "porn" worthy. Even though I did try and make all the stupid faces. They just looked like that... really stupid (or I that I needed to take a poop). Needless to say, I burned it.

I think she had the surgery again on Monday. Please check in with us Alex and tell us how your doing!!!

Anyone that voted yes and hasn't PM'd me yet you need to do so now please. We need to get all the cabins in order. And anyone else wanting to join up, let me know!

Not sure yet Funnyduddies. I am thinking about a dozen cabin doubles have filled now.

Does it mean anything that my name is in bold on your list? Or is it just because I rock?

Ya know, I am not sure if it was lap band related or because of my previous career. I just find that emotional dumping on a professional helps. Sometimes it is good to just go "blahhhhhhhhhhhh" all over their office floor and leave it there. Makes me feel better. And it is much better than dumping on my friends and family. Although I know they would listen if I needed them too. I just need to talk and get it out sometimes. No advice needed, I just need to tell someone about it. And not penting up the stress means I eat less and don't hoard the food around me!

I also value my massage therapist. Worth every penny in my mind!

Bumping because I love this thread so much. Newbies share!

Action: Ummm, don't know. Action is what you make it? I am a married woman so I am only looking to get my flirt on. :eek:

Flights: Flights are a dime a dozen if you are near a major airport. I wouldn't let that be your deciding factor. But you have until the end of September to decide. Just let us know as soon as possible so we can reserve a cabin for you.

Still time to sign up! There are a lot of us going! It will be fun to have as many people going as possible!! We are going to have a BLAST!!

Just PM me your info and let's go cruisin'!!!!!

Live, Love, Laugh.

It's a small town. They already know all there is to know about me. I am only giving out work info. But they all know where I live. Going to set up an email system for weekly plans and upcoming due dates.

I am creating a student contract. But to be honest, I haven't figured out how I am going to discipline. Can I beat them at this age? (just kidding) My idea of discipline is a tazer. LOL

Thanks everyone.... I think I have a letter done... wanna read it and tell me what you think?

I took out all my info and stuff for posting here...

Dear Students and Families,

Welcome to your 6th grade class! I’m excited about the opportunity to get to know you, and I’m looking forward to a happy and productive school year. I am thrilled to become a part of the (my school) School team!

A little about me: I was a police officer and involved in law enforcement for the past 12 years. During the past three years, I have done substituting for the (old school) in (city), Arizona while working on my second BA in Education at (my college). I graduated from (my university) with honors in 2002. My husband is a teacher at (his school) teaching Physical Science as well as coaching football and girls softball. I have a (age) son entering (enter grade) grade. I also have a 1 ½ year old German Shepherd named (his name).

Curriculum areas we will focus on will be designed by the Arizona Education Standards and will review material as well as introduce new concepts and tasks associated with grade level.

My homework policy is: If a child is on excused absence they may make up their missing assignments by collecting the work from the Absent Folder in class. They will have one week to turn in missing assignments. After that, no late work will be accepted. Unexcused absences have no late work.

Late Work: Due dates of assignments and projects will not be accepted late if there is no excused absence from class. Written assignments must be legible. If it is not done in a legible fashion, I will return it to the student and they will have a chance to correct the problem once.

My grading policy: Each student begins the year with an A / 100%. It is up to the student to maintain that grade. The grading is done on a standard scale of 100-90 A, 80-89.9 B, 70-79.9 C, 60-69.9 D, 59.9 and below is considered Failing. I expect a lot from the students but I also provide them with the tools, knowledge and independence to achieve their goals. Sixth grade is designed to prepare a student to enter into the junior high with good foundations of skills and a higher independence.

I will help the students to build the classroom based on respect, equality, consistency, fairness, independence and self discipline. I believe in accountability for actions and having a good foundation of ethics and good moral character. Organization will be key to a successful year.

Upcoming school events you should be aware of include:

Please mark those dates on your calendar. Studies show that parental involvement in a child’s education is one of the strongest indicators of student achievement. We hope you will make it a priority this year to attend as many school-sponsored events as possible.

If you have any questions or concerns or if you would like to visit our classroom, schedule a conference, or volunteer to help out, you can contact me at (my work number). The best times to reach me are 6:30am – 8am and 3pm – 5pm, Mon-Fri. If I am unavailable I will return your call within 24 hours. I am also available via E-mail at (my work email)

Once again, WELCOME!! Let’s work together to make this the best year ever!

Sincerely,

Jenna --------

I have had 2 fills. First fill worked great 6 weeks (May 05) after surgery. Second fill was just a "topper" after swelling went down more (Sept 05) and is still working great.

bumping for others to join.... still some cabins available.

Single travelers, we still have some roomies for ya!! Come one, come all!

:clap2: I love you guys!

Karla and Alex... that is VERY generous of you. I am sure some people will PM you!! That's why I love this group, we are already family!!!

Man, I can't wait... is it June yet????

Sorry Argon. Our prices are only for this group and the cut off date is mid September. We are already filling up fast. Why not just block the date off in the calendar, and tell everything else it can wait?!?!?! That is what I am doing. I usually don't plan so far ahead but the pricing is so great for a June cruise, I am this time!!

I have no idea whether you can get a cabin or not closer to the date but it wouldn't be with the group rate and you wouldn't be linked to us for dinner tables. Feeling lucky?

Come on... live a little and LET'S GO ON A CRUISE!!! WOOOOT WOOOOT
