Huge back story that I didn't care to post on the Dis. She likes to come in and out of our lives when it's convenient to her and that's usually when her bank account is on zero. And all 4 of her sisters want nothing to do with her either and have cut her out of their lives. Not every family is...

My SD did this almost 2 years ago now. She told us that she we were never allowed to speak to her or her DD ever again. Put it in writing. Told us how we never did anything for her. That our DD (also her half-sister) was a complete brat and needed to learn to respect her elders. The minute...

Check out Centenary College in Hackettstown. I'm hearing a lot of good things about them lately. It was actually on the short list for my niece. Price was pretty good from what Dsis said.

You won't have to claim it either for the family or your child. That being said, maintain the 1099 with all your other tax documents. My DD received benefits as my DH is disabled. We have to file this year for the first time because they gave us a retro check for the past 12.5 years...

EASTERN!!!! :cool1:

I believe (but please double check) that once the items have been washed/sterilized, etc. they are okay. I know they don't want anything picked up off the beach with possible contaminents. I would just double check the customs page before you leave. I'll try to find the page for you. found...

:rotfl2: I love the Jersey contingent on these boards. We just live for these type of threads. :thumbsup2

It's on the form and then the CD will have a briefing. Basically you need to total up how much you spent on souveniers that are coming back into the country. They don't care if you drank $2000 at sea as long as it stays out there. I believe you probably need to declare any cigarettes/cigars...

We always use porters. They certainly are not required. When we drop our luggage at the curb, they pick it up and get it to the appropriate boarding area. We tip $2 a bag getting on the ship. On the way out, we come off the escalators and grab the nearest porter. He helps us to locate...

:thumbsup2 I totally agree!! As long as she and her husband were on board that's all that matters! Beautiful day with great memories!!! :)

Beautiful!!! Thank you so much for sharing your special day!! Wedding pictures always make me tear up!! :goodvibes My DD saw a wedding on CC and is now convinced she is getting married there. Of course she is only 13 so we have some time to plan. :goodvibes

I'll try to do it tonight for you.

I booked a week and a half before a cruise in the beginning of December. And then on another cruise I added my stepdaughter to our reservation about 2 months before the cruise. She asked me to surprise the rest of the family so I had to tell them that there was no room and then she surprised...

We have the Olympus. I have one and my DD has a less expensive version. http://www.getolympus.com/us/en/digitalcameras/tough.html We also picked up the floating wrist straps. Purchased them at Best Buy and they can be detached whenever we aren't using them in the water. I totally...

So glad I live in NJ. Get to stay in the car and have your gas pumped for you. :thumbsup2

The poor kid. If it's a small school, I know that the lead roles always went to the older kids in our older school. The thought process was that this was the 8th graders last year and the younger kids still had plenty of time to hone their craft and would get the lead roles when it was their...

I was just about to post the same thing!! My parents moved 1800 miles away!

I much prefer St. Maarten over Nassau. To me there is no comparison. And I have found the islanders take a simple "No thank you." without issue. Not like the guy last night screaming "Hey got any money for a homeless person. I'm hungry." After the third time I finally screamed "I heard...

Kids are welcome. They have drinks. They give out prizes. And yes, it is most definitely a sales presentation. They hold multiple during the cruise. But we go and get free hats and what not. One time we actually added-on while on the cruise. They do have really good deals. :thumbsup2

Get the water softener. You can even clean your toilets less than 3 times a week. :rotfl2: We were getting such build up it was horrible. I was literally cleaning all 3 toilets every other day. If I went a week, it looked like I hadn't touched them for months. :crazy2: Water softener...
