Thursday Thirteen #36 - Cruise is almost here week!

TT_palms.jpg

    1. We leave in one week for our cruise to the Western Caribbean. Our port of calls are Cozumel and Progreso, Yucatan.


    Cozumel Sunset…Oh Yeah!

      2. Checking the weather for those areas it shows that it’s in the high 80’s during the day and in the mid 70’s at night. Perfect weather! Let’s just pray we have calm seas!

        3. We will have 2 full days at sea this cruise. Last one we only had one day. Big D got a little queasy that day, hope he won’t have a problem this time! Though I did enjoy teasing him! lol Mean I know!

          4. We are going with my dad and step-mom, my step-brother and his family, and my step-sister. This should be alot of fun.

            5. The only thing I’m not looking forward to is that we are having to drive to Texas because we will be leaving from Galveston. All my family lives in Texas, we are the only ones out of state, so guess who gets to drive? Yep, me the one who HATES to drive!

              6. But that’s ok, I have my travel package all ready! Laptop, to watch movies and play games, books, crochet, pillow to sleep the time away, and lots of music to sing along to while driving my dear hubby crazy! )

                7. I’ve made two trips to the mall this week already, I think I’m almost done shopping. But the key word there is almost!

                  8. Miss Priss went today and bought some very cute stuff for the cruise. She looks so beautiful in the outfits she bought! She’s getting quite excited herself about this trip. We just wish Bubba was able to go with us. ( But we plan on taking another trip when he has vacation time!

                    9. I’m really looking forward to relaxing and enjoying the awesome food, spending time with family and a few of these won’t hurt either. )

                      10. Switching Gears….I am almost done with the baby afghan I have been working on. Just have to finish the border now. Here’s a picture of the almost finished project, it will have the light green border all the way around. The yarn in very thick and extremely soft! I love it! It’s like working with a cloud!

                        11. I bought some other yarn that is gorgeous for a scarf for Miss Priss. One is a light shade of blue and the other is dark blue. This yarn is extremely soft too, almost angora soft. Can you tell I’m “hooked” on crocheting! )

                          12. Something else I’m hooked on, I’ve mentioned PaperbackSwap before and if you are a reader and haven’t checked it out, do so! You can click here:

                              But now there is SwapaCD! This is awesome! I have received six CD’s already and I just started! Go here to check it out:

                                  If you decide to join either one of these, I’d appreciate it if you’d say that yellowrosesgarden referred you! Thanks! )

                                    13. And last but not least……Have a Happy Thursday my friends!!!

                                      Girl, I am so jealous. Hubby does not like cruises so we don’t cruise!! Have a great time. Should we alert Cozemel that you are coming? Their merchants will be thrilled to see you, you will boost their economy!!
                                      My T13 will be visible once I get my template fixed. I DON’T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED!!!!

                                      Sounds like a great cruise you’re going on. Have fun and enjoy! It’s good when you do trips with the family.

                                      I love the baby afghan, I used to make those in my younger years. Haven’t done them in a long while.

                                      Mine are up.

                                      Have a fabulous cruise! And I just recently heard of Paperback swap! I already swap cds on LaLa, though. It only costs a buck per cd to swap with people!

                                      Jealousy rears its ugly head. )

                                      That baby afghan is beautiful. I’m doing a shell pattern afghan, too. Only mine is for the Kid so I can get my other afghan back from him.

                                      Bon Voyage!

                                      I’ve been to Cozumel a couple of times; if you get a chance to go to the Mayan ruins at Tulum, do so! It’s beautiful!
