and we are up...

This has been a crazy week. Didn't get any orders and was quite confused.

It seems our web host was having problems and 90% of their clients sites
were not working. Ouch ! http://www.themsshoppe.com/ is now back up and running.

I was impresed how quickly they fixed it once I brought it to their
attention. Don't find customer service like that much these days.

Thank you for fixing it so quickly.

If anybody was trying to order something on sale and you couldn't do it, please email us and we'll make it work.

Thanks to our customers for being so patient.

Have a great day everybody !

getting a head start

I have been trying to get a jump start on my holiday shopping and I have to say
I am in really good shape.
Of course as my family walked away from us our list grew much smaller. Not a big
deal we never got nything from them they ust expected presents from us. I think
I'll adopt a family on one of the christmas trees in the mall instead. They will appreciate
what they get.
And I ca nspoil my adopted soldier in Iraq. Sorry folks just can't seem to spend money
on "family" that treated us so badly again when we needed them. By the way, they
still haven't called like they "promised" they would. It must e tough being retired and
deciding which channel to put the TV on. Decisions decisions ?

Mark and I decided earlier in the year we really didn't want to do a big holiday card. Ok, so maybe I
decided it. I usually make, we take a photo and then include a letter.

I got this adorable card sale in the mail yesterday and we decided to buy cards, use a photo
from one our vacations this year and then I'll write a letter to include.

So here's my question to you....Do I send a card to the family?  Could really use your input.

Have a great day everybody

what balls?

Just recieved a call from Palm Beach Cruise/Travel. They are the travel agent for the MSF Cruise for a Cause.
Last year they marked up the cruise tickets and then had the balls to "donate" the money to MSF.

Hey, we all figured out your donation was really our money. I could have used that $100 donation for my taxes. Instead this ballsy travel agent is claiming a whopping $20,000 donation. Must be nice to have morals
like this.

DO NOT understand any circumstances book a cruise with these people. They are unethical and don't know how to book anything let alone help a person with a disability.

I will NEVER go on another MSF cruise. I paid more for the l;ast cruise then I did for our
cruise to Europe. Tell me there was no markup in those tickets. Give me a break.

I will do eerything I can to make sure they don't take advantage of another person with a disability.
They should be ashamed.

They are also known as Get in the game. In Florida. If you need a good travel agent let me know and i'll refer you mine.

Have a great day everybody

another trip to the neuro

Yesterday Mark & I went to my neuro. Been waiting for test results forever.
Some of which we've been waiting 2 months.
Well ,as I figured the biggie was positive. Which means  my treatment plan is
upside down right now. Or maybe not...
I have the utmost respect for my neuro and I trust him. As many of you know
trust is not easy for me as I am a product of major screwed up childhood.

I do trust him and we will respect his treatment plan.

Next week I'll go back in the hospital. It'll be allright.

I have so much support from my friends. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
I have no family support. My family bailed a long time ago.

Don't worry about me. I am strong. Stronger without the dysfunctional "family"
I was born in to.

Our actual anniversary is Monday. Fun way to spend our anniversary.

Have a great day everybody.

Happy Anniversary

Mark & I just got home from a wonderful dinner celebrating our anniversary.

We've been married 23 years. Wow ! He got screwed when he married into
my F'd up family. A mother who lives her life on an imaginary pedastel. Somehow believing the world revolves around her. My brothers are spoiled brats and my sister
and her obese husband who live the life of deadbeats and mooch off everybody.

I on the other hand lucked out. Marks mom is the best. I call her mom because let's face it
she is my mom. She may not have given birth to me but she is my mom in every way.
His dad was the best and fought so hard to beat his cancer until he had nothing left to give.
His brother and family are wonderful.

Mark and I went to a japanese restaurant/sushi bar we have wanted to go to for a long time.

There are no decent restaurants where we live so we got on the highway to enjoy a
good meal. The sushi was incredible. I am so stuffed. I want to go back...

This restuarant is known to have special patrons the night before the game. Yes, the
Packers are known to go there (probably the one in Green Bay) but we had no Packers
sightings.
The place was so busy. We went early thinking we would have a quiet meal but it
was so busy so early and now we can see why.

Can't wait to celebrate our 24th. We have plans to renew our vows for our 25th in
some wonderful destination with family and friends.   Join us...

Have a great day everybody
