I'll do it. I'll PM you my email so you can send the picture. What do you want cleaned up? Do you want the person removed? Or the whole background?

I mostly focus on certain DVDs. i don't do the pushups. I love the legs DVD, cardio K, and arms. turbo jam is a blast!!! I've done it 3 times now & I can't wait to jam again tonight. My abs are so sore afterwards. I might have to change the title of my thread, because i'm loving turbo jam. Although I still love my p90x dvds. I just do a mix of them. Somedays we turbo jam, some days we p90x. Somedays I do a pilates videos. Somedays I plop in front of the computer & eat. variety

what airline? do you need insurance?

i think a just the two of you wedding will be fun. i picked mexico & our hotel to keep it affordable for guests. if it was just us, we would have gone somewhere more exotic.

I know you gave me your work address for mailing the starfish to keep me from showing up at your home on a holiday with my ferett, but I goggled you & found your home address anyway. Yep, I'm creepy.

How can customs turn away this little guy?

yay! i can't wait to see all the cute pets.

You can not declare bankruptcy on a student loan & they can garnish your wages to pay for it. So don't mess around with student loans. I agree with Janet's advice. If you just solve the paying off the credit card problem, he can still accumulate more debt. If he is in a cycle of overspending the debt is not going away. And winning the lotto is not the solution. That usually just magnifies the problem. I think it takes getting serious about budgets & buckling down to get out of debt like this. But it can be done & people tend to feel great & empowered as they do it. I really like the book "personal finance for dummies." I am sure there are some other good books geared towards paying off debt. It can be done though. The worst is to feel like there is so much debt you can escape. I have seen sucess stories of people in so much debt that follwed a plan & are now on their way to becoming millionaires. This might be too much, but could you move out of new york city? Maybe somewhere with a lower cost of living can help you pay off all the debt.

You can only bring two per traveler? Whatever will we do? Can you split them up with your guests? 2 dogs per guest?

Here are the clothes I've bought for the trip. I've been aquiring stuff for the last year so a lot of it won't be in stores anymore. I still need to get some new shorts & I'm ready to go. I bought these over 6 months ago so they won't still be in stores. brown tank- old navy last weekend $25 flower dress- marshalls last summer white dress- charlotte russe last month $30 (this is what I'm wearing for "paperwork day." it's a lot cuter on than hanging.) shirt- old navy last weekend $25 left-right target old navy target can't remember- have had it a while yellow shirt & blue dress JC penney. The blue dress is a swimsuit coverup. pink shirt- target

I'm trying to win some on ebay, I was hoping to get them a little cheaper, but it's not going to be much cheaper, apparently they are very popular! I don't think they are any cheaper on ebay anymore. They are really popular. If you get them from beachbody & don't like them you can return them for your money back. I recently got turbo jam. I love it! There are a few girls I work out with reguarly. We split the cost of the set. We did Cardio party & Ab Jam tonight. It's a blast! I love working out at home. We can talk during the workout, workout on our schedule, & be as silly as we want. It's a little hard to fit 3 of us in the living room kicking at the same time, but we make it work. 4 would be a really tight squeeze. We do another at home workout I call "dance dance revolution circuit." It's a rotation of DDR, pilates & weights.

I'd use a blank layout. Then do insert-->picture from file Hold shift as you resize your pictures so they don't get squished. Drag all the pictures around however you like them. Then say insert-->text box to write stuff. When you are done, group it all (ctrl A to select everything, draw-->group) then right click--> save as picture. If there is a black box in your picture you don't want, you may need to make a white box & put it behind your pictures.

powerpoint pictures are saved at 150 dpi. For an invite youd want atleast 250 dpi at the size you are printing. I've gotten around this by making my powerpoint file 2x the size I needed. But on the web it shouldn't look fuzzy. I saw someone else have this problem, but I never have. Maybe its how you insert & save. I'll see if I can find my steps for making a powerpoint picture...

I'm sure Tammy B can loan out some dogs for the month of May

Quote: Originally Posted by beyondsmitten You know Tammy this policy seems to be pretty common for most resorts, high end or not. Some either restrict outsiders or charge you a fee just to use them. You have to really weigh what you want and if the LOCATION is what matters to you more than PHOTOS then this is the place for you, if not keep searching until you find a place that meets your needs. I don't know what you hope to get out of a BOYCOTT? My location is beautiful, but provides a minimial level (virtually none) of communication before the wedding and charges $300 fees for EVERY outside vendor. I have to keep my fingers crossed that once I arrive things will go smoothly since I can't really talk to them beforehand AND I have to pay for my own uncle to officate my wedding, but that is the choice I made to have a lush, intimate property to myself and my guests for the weekend. I could have chosen something else but weighed my options. That is what you have to do too! I don't think it's that common. I had no problem finding a place that didn't have a policy like this. The big problem most of us have with EDR is how they changed their policy after people had already booked. Even with this boycott, people can still pick EDR for their wedding. Its not like we'd kick them off the forum. So they can still weigh their options. I think a lot can be accomplished with this boycott.

I am definitely going to do my research this time before choosing. have your guests already booked? Will it be hard to switch?

If people are stick of hearing about EDR, they don't have to read the threads. I am really glad to see the forum pulling together to try to do something about this. I'm so sorry you are dealing with it. I hope it all works out. Keep us updated. This is what I think of their policy-->
