OT-Cruise to Nowhere

Hi all Lots of emotions this morning. I was supposed to go on ONE DAY criuse on the Norweigian Dawn overnight tonight until tomorrow- It was booked as the cruise to nowhere..which really turned out to be true...The ship will not be back in time so our cruise has been cancelled! I am so bummed! Guess we will have to find other Mother's Day plans. On another note...my husband pulled off a surprise party with 60 of my closest friends some of whom had not seen me since my surgery! There was a DJ and I danced the night away. I felt marvelous! My sister even flew in from Florida...it was awesome. I just think about my bday one yr ago and cannot believe the difference in my life. This surgery had changed everything...its a whole new world!

Awww Bummer Joanie...but very cool on the party!!!! Have a great Mom's Day anyway...hopefully you can re-schedule your cruise and you'll get to go on another weekend. Have a Sparkling Day!! ~CAE~

Happy Mother's Day kiddo. Hope your day was a good one. I had a great one. Take care and Happy Birthday again!!!!!!!!!! Hugs KimC

Hey Joanie First of all sorry that curise did not turned out which you are hoped for but look at bright sides you got a blast birthday party from all the people and it was nice of your hubby did to you. Counting the days until next year to go on long week vacation on Cruise. Happy Mother's day!!! Hope you have other nice plan for this even thought the weather was freeze this past weekend BRRRRR!!!

I guess everything happens for a reason. We had over four of the couples and their families that were supposed to go on the ship with us for party leftovers yesterday. Then the adults headed to Foxwoods...I had a ball--but am beat today. I have a walk planned with my friend this morning and spending the day with my sister who flew in from Florida for my party and then I have water aeobics tonight.. Joanie

Hi Joanie, Belated Happy Birthday!!!!!!!! I'm glad you had a great b'day. I hope your cruise gets rescheduled! Isn't it great that you are soooo far from where you were last yr? Congrats! xoxoxo JA

JA I felt like a queen at that party! It was one of the best days of my entire life. I feel better, happier and healthier than I have in 15 yr. Having this surgery has been the best decision of my life...ok..besides getting married and having kids! Remind me of this..the next time I write about being stressed! At the party I saw a friend I had not seen in 2 yrs...she told me the last few times we met--I seemed sad...and that it was good to see me looking and feeling so great! I had not realized I revealed my unhappiness to anyone...but myself. At any rate--its a whole new world and I am lovin' it! Joanie

Joanie, You deserve the happiness and royal treatment! I know what the feeling of "feeling good" is all about! It's the best! JA
