My wife used to watch it religiously... I watched it on occasion with her, but when they had that "musical" episode in Season 7 when I believe Callie got into the car accident, that was the end of it for us! Whenever I see coming attractions, I keep saying to my wife... "that's STILL on"? asquared17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melmar02 Posted April 18, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 DS finished his last subject this morning, and DD just needs to complete and edit one final paper. We're almost on summer vacation! 🏝 I went to the county courthouse this morning to renew our vehicle registrations. We're taking my car, so I wanted the updated sticker before we left otherwise I would have just done it online. I had visions of being pulled over two blocks from the cruise parking lot and having my car impounded for an expired sticker. After an hour of waiting, I can say my car is legal to hit the road on Saturday. Currently, I'm sitting at the hair salon getting my purple hair refreshed. I'm a bit more magenta than @Ampurp85, and it's pretty much all over color so I am bringing my own towel. I don't want to turn Royal's pink... I may or may not have accidently done that at Cesar's in Vegas the first time I went with a vivid color a few years ago. Dropped DH's clothes off at the cleaners this morning, and I started the "need to iron" pile. The only time I drag that thing out is for a cruise! Still no headliners in the app. 5 days to go!

I never got a bill from Cesar's, so I figured it must have come out. I was dark purple on our last pre-covid cruise, and I don't remember it washing out as much as when I go a little more pink.

melmar02 Posted April 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2023 Went to the bank this morning for tip and casino money, and then I ran some errands for this week's cake order and co-op lessons. Got home and gave son a haircut. We tie dyed the shirts today too, and we're currently waiting for the color to do its thing. I'm still not sold, but hopefully they turn out better than what I have pictured in my head. We (I) decided that we would ice dye them which should give them more of a watercolor look than the traditional swirl.

Yes - like watercolors Here they are being rinsed. DH's seem to fade quite a bit so I added some more color to his this morning before throwing all the shirts in the washer. I may have gotten the color a bit intense in spots to make up for the fade. They are in the dryer now, so I'll post finished pics soon.

melmar02 Posted April 20, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2023 @FireFishII I laid the shirts all laid out on the couch to take a picture just in time for the timer to go off on the oven. I rotated my cookies and came back to this. We may be a little furry on embarkation day. For our first time, I think they turned out pretty good, but I would do some things differently next time. First, I decided we would dye the shirts outside so I wouldn'thave a mess in the house, but it was 85 degrees here yesterday. The ice melted in 30 minutes and didn't have time to pull the color through to the back. We flipped the shirts added more ice and more color to the B Side. Next, I would have saturated the shirts with color more. The colors were really dark straight out of the bottle, and I didn't trust that the color would fade to what was on the label. That's why I had to add more to DHs this morning - the dark blue and red are what I added. Finally, I should have done this weeks ago. It was a tad stressful doing it right before we leave with everything else we have going on. Here are the finished shirts...sans fur baby. And in case you were wondering how school was going...

melmar02 Posted April 20, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2023 @Sweety thanks for the info. That's cool. I just received our boarding day info email. The stateroom request form isn't really set up for 2 BR suites. There is no place to indicate in which room we want the beds separated. I think I'll just wait until we get onboard for that request to avoid confusion. I am asking for an extra blanket, so I'll let you know if it is there when we arrive, or if we have to ask for it in person anyway.

melmar02 Posted April 22, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2023 Travel day! We got home from our co-op at 4 yesterday afternoon, unloaded the car, and took my MIL to dinner. She recently moved to be closer to us, and we wanted to see her before we left. Got home, packaged cookies, filled lemon tarts, and started decorating today's groom's cake. Went to bed about midnight. I have cupcakes left to ice, but I should be able to start packing by 7 this morning. I don't think we will leave by 11am, but hopefully by 2pm we will be on the road. I plan on sleeping in the car. FireFishII, PPPJJ-GCVAB, Robert M and 6 others 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
