Sudokuaholics Anonymous 5

Here are some stools for us so we can sit around the bar together...

Did you see my comment on easy yesterday Suzy? Veuve was my hubby's pick for his special bottle of bubbly last night.

No Gail.... but he has good taste!

Tricia..
If your are you shouldn't be...it's too early....

WB Bean, seems I have to bring my own drink

Mamma Mia!!! Page 162 I posted on this morning.
Now

Ohh something not right here, half my post has disappeared.

I was saying, now Page 177.
Woweeee, what a party.
Bean, have you been naughty?

Hi Viv, Just back quickly before I head back to rest by the fire. We missed you after you left. You have a lot of reading to catch up on. Did you and John solve the cryptic today?

Hi CynB,
Yes there was a lot of reading but I am caught up. Great speech you made. What a lot of hilarity there was. Great to see it was a successful cruise party for you.
John had a doctor's appt. today and he was not at the cafe.

But I solved the cryptic by myself.!! lol
I will keep you in the loop re his ultrasound results on his neck.
He has that next Wed.

All quiet in Sudokuland tonight.

OH MY, I need my coffee today! who knew a cruise could be so exhausting? I slept and slept last night!

Many pages to catch up on now, how many posts did we do for the party?

such fun, and many thanks to all who did so much to make this such a fun time!

Jumping on the sleepers below deck, is that why I am stiff and sore this morning??

It would not have a thing to do with the marathon 5 hour typing session, with my butt velcroed to my chair , afraif I might miss something, would it?

Hi MizT.
About to go to bed here.
What a cruise it was. Took me a while to catch up on what went on, but I managed.
The bling was magnificent lol ehehehhe

It was a lovely time and once more, before I change back to mundane things, bring out the bling to pack it up



and now, help me decide, can the beach cover up

worn with the jacket of the traveling suit
make a suitable outfit for the trip home? I'll add the shoes of course, and will pack my bag with all the rest.

Stop jumping on me, MizTricia!
Great cruise everybody! Now I know what to pack for the next one.
I will bring the shotgun next time to, for repelling party- pooping boarders again.
After all that rich food, I need a wholesome brekky, before visiting my leg surgeon for the 1 year recheck.
See y'all later!
(BTW... What was Bean sent to the naughty room for?)

Good morning all! Looks like I missed a great cruise! Now I'll really have to go back and catch up!! Was busy with dentist appointment for Max and then Bryana was arranging to meet her cyber friend in New York City. I didn't want to drive all the way back down, but she's 15 and I was nervous about her taking the train all the way down to the city. After she left, I realized I didn't have her friend's last name, address or phone number. I could just picture the police saying, "you let your 15 yo daughter take a 2 1/2 hour train to NYC to meet a girl she became friends with on the internet but she has never seen, and you don't know the girl's name, address or phone number???" She texted me the info when she got there and she is having a great time. I warned her that Penn Station in NYC is huge and she would have a hard time finding her friend, but I don't think she really believed me. She said she's never seen anything so big as that train station!

Thought I should stop writing before it became a book!

Dino, and anyone else who might get bacteria gut, a tablespoon or two of apple cider vinegar will help get rid of it. It's amazing how well it works!

Brendan comes back from Italy on Sunday, so I have to go pick him up in New Jersey (3 hours away) I'm trying to convince Bryana to take a train from NYC to NJ so I don't have to fight the NYC traffic. Fighting the traffic could add 2 hours onto the trip, but she's nervous about finding the right train out of NYC.

Yawn...Dragging myself up topside to see what I missed...Maen all - thanks for the coffee, Tricia. - Gotta go back and see what I missed while crashed out in my bunk below!

Good morning Vici! Still early for you!

Hi Stella - what a lovely experience for your daughter! Sorry you missed the festivities - what a party those DUGs throw!

Heidi - thanks for the nutricous brekky - I needed it after all the sugar yesterday. Can't believe I slept through all the jumping, drinking and naughty behavior last night.
Rola - hope you are feeling better.

all our DUGs are passed out on the deck chairs! Need to get the parasols out so they don't burn!

As long as I'm CP'in...might as well pull up the proper avatar!

I missed all the fun, didn't I? Sorry, guess I spent too much time at the beach yesterday.

BTW - haven't found some of the smilies I thought I submitted...wouldn't be surprised if I left a few behind thinking I had submitted them.
One was a cool Mama Mia dance picture for the party - oh well! I'm sure we'll be gearing up to celebrate something else again soon.

Sorry Vici, messed up your CP

Hi Rena! Don't worry, you were with us in spirit...were you at the beach in your tiara and boa? If it was a nude beach you would have fit right in with the skinny dippers!

No worries, Rena - much nicer than talking to myself.
catching up on the oodles of pages of posts...you'll wind up with a sore butt like MzT and me. I was at the computer for 5 hours! But what a hoot!

Just a regular beach with the kids. Totally forgot by the time I came home and made supper.

Just wanted to officially thank the DUGs for throwing such a wonderful bash...and thanks to all those who joined in and made the experience unforgetable!

Glad you had a nice day at the beach, Rena ....you'll get to party with the DUGs soon enough in November - for real!

Cyber parties are lots of fun but nothing beats the real thing

I see our MzT on-line, but where is she? Maybe actually playing puzzles!
I've posted some pics from my trip down to see my brother in my gallery...stop by for a visit when you can

Nice pics, Vici, looks like a lovely home. I love ponds and want one in my yard.

Rena - my brother is always working on something...it's been a long process (getting their backyard in), but it is really looking nice. They have a couple of fish in their pond (only 2 have survived)...my pond (which is much bigger - 18' X 25') doesn't have fish because the local critters would definitely clean them out!

Still watching the Olympics! Exciting, but also frustrating at times. Most of the top tennis players have been knocked out. Gymnastics and swimming have been something to watch!

Hubby told me last night that they can't hear me clapping!
