EE22: What happened to your countdowns???? Tomar leaves on Tuesday and you leave on Thursday???? I am so confused.

At least in the Mousehouse...AC is very well used. They even have it blowing into the streets.

I can't think about you being back at work. I just want to be done with school at this point. I am looking forward to be done with class and just getting ready for the trip.

I am not sure what happened to my countdown...it's been gone for some time. I had some major issues with my computer back in Feb. I know that ultimately I got rid of it, but I just never put it back:laughing: For awhile it wouldn't keep me logged in here for some unknown reason and I'm sure when I was messing and finding my passwords...I did it. I had troubles the beginning of the summer too...the DH changed all my desktop stuff, etc. I have one on my desktop so that's the one I always look at :woohoo:

Same to you too Tomar...Safe Travels and Have a wonderful time.

I'll be counting for the rest when we return.

EEyorelover22

07-16-2011, 05:37 PM

Hiya everyone, :yay:

Minnie, & TP2, Wonder if your getting ready. :laundy:

We are soooooooooooo undecided here. Mom is home. But, things are still unstable to stable? :confused3 Depends what time of day it is. I was inititally just going to cancel. Then we thought about just dropping to a week? It will probably come down to the wire of when we can cancel or alter. Dad, is still unsure what he wants. He is talking about setting up some extra help if we go. That is what I would want if we go. Today, I am thinking we are doing well. But, things seem to change.
Bug needs to get prepared for her stuff in september. She needs to rest. And I don't intend to pull her through wdw at a crazy pace. More like the video's with the aged in them.. Sitting and people watching > going to dinner. And then doing the pool & hot tub. She is suppose to be strengthing that leg for the procedure. pool exercises are the ticket. :thumbsup2
Soooooooooo what to do. :headache:
In the mean time, we have not done thing one for the trip. no luggage, no prep for clothes etc. Can't do it, would be too upset if we don't go. I had come to grips with not going & everything going on here & then things looked a bit better the last few days and we are all confused again.
Glad mom is comfortable. Hospice has been wonderful. They have about moved in here. We have so much equipment and supplies. Makes our lives actually easier than before. We just need to work on her strength. :wizard:

Thanks everyone for being there for us. :grouphug: Would not of made it this far without you all.

Have a great weekend. mky :cutie:

I got our universal tickets. In e mail. 2 parks, 4 days. I think it's funny. I didn't order them till after the prices went up......but. The only package that didn't go up was the one we planned on gettin!!

I saw the new Harry potter last night. It was great. And I got a few ideas for rides at the wizarding world of Harry potter. One is a haunted hay ride type ride through the forbidden forest.....another idea I just got tonight after seeing the movie. A roller coaster of gringotts bank like when they go to the vaults

mkymouse4ever

07-17-2011, 07:29 PM

Hi Jmouse, sorry don't know much about harry potter. Have been to US and IOA but didn't really like alot of the rides. Not into wild roller coasters and their water rides are soaking. :confused3 I did love the Portofino bay hotel thou. :thumbsup2

Hey MKY: How are you holding up? I bet you NEED the diversion of the trip.;) Sometimes life just comes at you full speed ahead. I was there over the holidays.:scared1:

Tomar: Hope you are having a WONDERFUL trip. I think you still have another full week.

EE22: I think you are home tomorrow. :eek: I can't believe how fast that went. Totally amazing.

We leave 4 weeks from today.:dance3: Can't wait. 2 more days of school and I am done. I think I just finished my last paper of the semester.:yay:

We are getting ready. Shopping and doing all the fun stuff. Got a new phone today. Time to upgrade! Also got DD12 a line. This one has GPS so if we loose her, we can find her.:thumbsup2 Gotta love the technology!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer.

07-18-2011, 08:46 PM

Hi TP2, Oh yeah, things are tough. Making some new decisions tommorrow and will let you know if things are sorted out.
Glad your done with school for now. :banana: And heavy into planning mode. I use Verizon. I tried that wdw thing with verizon and never got it to work on my "droid". But I have the internet etc on phone and do the " unofficial wdw" book > LINES. Did you join that? Its part of their paid site, where members list wait times on the internet and fastpass times too. You use your sign in and can see what is going on at the parks easily. Works very well especially when the parks are busy lots of people plugging in info.

WoW EE22 is due back already. That has so flown by. She had great pictures and looked like alot of fun.

Sounds like Tomar is having a great time as usual.

Happy planning, mky:cutie:

tripplanner2

07-18-2011, 09:10 PM

MKY: Good luck with making those decisions.:flower3: I don't envy you.:sad1:

I did sign up for both the WDW app and for Lines. We are working on getting our phone situation taken care of before the trip, dh is getting a new Droid through the insurance so I guess it should be here tomorrow and he can download all the apps to the new phone. We are excited. Kids can't wait to go.:yay:

Just want to say:grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: for all you are going through with mom.

WOW...what an amazing trip. LOVED IT!!
loved, loved, loved it. The weather and how close everything is...really awesome!

The heat is amazing here. The house was 91 when we got in.

I haven't read all the updates yet, but I hope everyone is still excited. Who wouldn't?

Minnie: thanks about Air Tran. Their flights don't work for me because I can only take two days and they don't fly everyday anymore since they were bought by SW.

LOVE SW!

EE22: Well, I can tell you had an amazing time from the pictures. Everyone looked happy. DH was laughing and it looked like you were all having a blast. I also noticed people in capris instead of shorts. I never saw the dripping sweat like we do in DW.

Well school is finally done for the summer. I just got home and I am like this :cool1::woohoo::dance3::cool1::woohoo::dance3::coo l1::woohoo::dance3:. Cleaning up all the books and getting the house in order. Boy to things start stacking up when you have one person busy for so long.

Last load of laundry is done. When the shirts are dry in the morning the luggage can be stored again with DH's Disney shirts ;)

DS's college stuff has been brought upstairs...exchanged it for the suitcases. One last system check of stuff for school. Then I can go through DL11's. Few items left to purchase so will have to get that done. I'm under a month for school to start:sad2:

We are in limbo for our next trip.:sad1:we are in the 2007 mode of not knowing when we'll go next or even who will go with us:sad1:

Keep counting people!!

Hope you are hanging in there.

I really like how close everything is at DL. It was awesome. DS and DL11 used the pool a ton for that reason. DTD being a walk away was nice. The entrance from Grand CA was half way into the park...let us in near Soarin and part of the way to Paradise Pier which was wonderful. No driving really made it very, very nice for me.

Getting excited about everyone's trips, but as you get closer, I go back to work:rolleyes:I am hoping things are better this year since I didn't get sick this year on vacation and I know what NOT to eatpopcorn::

Just got back from Harry Potter...excellent! DS and DL11 let me tag along:angel:...sometimes I don't follow it all since I didn't read the books.

That is such a bummer :sad2: The limited dates ever since the SW merger stink :headache:

Minnie: Just noticed you are going to Harry Potter! are you staying there or are you going from WDW?

As we are only going to WWoHP in IOA we've decided to stay at WDW (Dolphin this time). We are going to drive over early and be there for rope drop and hope that the resort guests haven't totally mobbed the area. DS has no idea so I can't wait to surprise him with this on his b-day :cool1::cool1::cool1:

EEyorelover22

07-21-2011, 10:26 PM

The Air Tran flights are horrible. I was counting on them, but not anymore. Midway is too far for a 2 day trip with SW.

I think you'll be okay. Be there early for the rope drop...they let non resort guests in before the actual park opening last year...like 30 minutes. Probably still are. I didn't get really bad until late morning. The castle is amazing. Remember the long walk from parking in the morning:eek: It is such a cool ride. I should clarify too "bad"...the rides were not that bad...there were just a lot of people in that area and it was hard to get pics, etc. The first day we arrived around 5 pm...we rode all the rides.

TP2, Yes Dad wants us to go. I think he will be ok. Just take some time. He might like being by himself and having us not fuss over him.

You certainly are crazy, busy. That sounds super fun. Always hear about Cape cod on tv, but never been. Is that far from you? Have a great time. :thumbsup2 Hard to judge the east coast areas from a map, everything is so much closer. We have to go through miles of corn to get anywhere.

mky :upsidedow

MKY...It does make sense that he would want some time alone. I would probably feel the same way.

Cape Code is about 5 hours away from us. Getting off the island is the problem. We need to drive about 1 hour to get to the ferry,then about 1 1/2 hours on boat, then rest in car. The ride is broken up so not terrible. My parents really wanted to do this and just did it. Told us on Saturday.:upsidedow It is all good, I just really wanted to be able to enjoy the week leading up to our trip with packing and taking it easy. Now it is going to be nutso.

EEyorelover22

07-26-2011, 08:17 PM

Glad to see you too mky!! :grouphug:
I am glad the trip is on. You need some down time.

TP2: I hope you enjoy Cape Cod. I've been to Nantucket twice...loved it.

DL11 and I went to see the Pooh Movie today. It's cute. Enjoyed it. Now DH And I have to go see Cars this week with our free tickets.

Summer is fading fast for me. I'm excited about your trips, but it means the end for me. I'm afraid to go look at my room...they put in AC I guess and I'm not sure what sort of a mess they left behind.:rolleyes:

mkymouse4ever

07-26-2011, 08:30 PM

TP2, that is a nice trip. drive and boat. :thumbsup2

EE22, it will be weird at school :teacher: with none of your own kids there now. This summer has flown by for you. Sorry. Do the DS & DD leave for school soon? :eek:

mky :upsidedow

EEyorelover22

07-26-2011, 08:36 PM

The time is coming up fast. I think I have about all the things they need...DS's is in the livingroom at the moment. I swaped it out for the luggage in the downstairs room. He leaves Aug 27th. DL11 has her coordinated color ensemble...girls are so different:lmao:I finished that up last Sat. She leaves Labor Day weekend. This coming weekend is the last one "off" for me. I will go the first weekend in August to put my room together...I hope and then back at it on the 11th.

It has flown. DH had a full blown meltdown today. He didn't handle last fall well and I don't think this one will be any easier.....it's going to be a whole lot of ugly:sad1:

I need my DL Chef back. I've been sick since I've been home. I'm thinking soy as I didn't have any while gone.

I hope we can make WDW next year or DL...DH is hooked on DL let me tell you. I don't care...I'll take what I can get!

EEyorelover22

07-26-2011, 08:37 PM

although it will take some getting used to...there will be less stress.

mkymouse4ever

07-26-2011, 08:55 PM

Hey EE22,

The weather is one good reason to stick with DL. I know there are supposed to be alot of "locals" there? But, we have talked about it for years. But, bug wants to see alot of california and I just want to go there. :confused3 Are DS & DD thinking of going again? Or is this gonna be a 2nd honeymoon???? ;)

Only way to tell >> don't eat any soy and get it out of your system then eventually try it and see what happens. Although I think they will kick you out of IOWA if your anti - soy???

mky:upsidedow

EEyorelover22

07-26-2011, 09:06 PM

The weather was amazing and since for now I can only go in the summer...it's a plus over FL. That's why DH liked it and the no driving, but with only he and I it might be different with driving.

DS and DD are thinking of going again, but I'm thinking 1st Honeymoon. We never had one;)we had fun when we were by ourselves. DH even went to the Aladdin show with me:lovestrucI was a tad worried but he enjoyed it.

I did the whole soy out of my system and didn't mean to when we went on the trip. Didn't have any at DL...the soy milk bothered me the first day so I dumped it...thought it was the trace of almonds or cocount. I hadn't had any for nearly 2 days when I had that. So for a week I was off of it and now that I'm home and had it in my coffee and in the free of all waffles...having a hard time so I will stay away from it again.

At least I can still eat CORN and BACON! so far.........

One thing we all noticed at DL...not as many people smoke. Very odd.

mkymouse4ever

07-26-2011, 09:11 PM

corn and bacon on there's a diet I could follow. :lmao:

I just spent the last 2 days writing a resume and cover letter for the wrong position!:headache: I am so shot from school, I guess I should have taken a break but with the trips coming I want this behind me instead of ahead of me.

EE22: You could tell in the pictures that DH was having a better time than normal. He was laughing and not that he did not look happy at DW, he just looked relaxed. Like truely on vacation.

MKY: I am sincerely so happy to see and hear from you.:hug: I am sure this trip will be low key, as you planned, but also much needed.:flower3:

Well, look on the up side! You have your student teaching one done:goodvibes Be sure to save it off and it will be done for later. You will probably be busier then and won't have time;)

I know what you mean though...I hate when I do stuff and I blow a bunch of time that I don't have much of! :headache:

Hiya ladies, :yay:

TP2, Oooh Nooooo, Sorry. You do need a break. Try to reset. Maybe through word you can change a few key words?

EE22, But can you put anything on the actual potatoe? Or are you eating them raw? Just kidding. ;)

Tomar, :hug: Welcome Home! We missed you. Hope things all worked great, and your rested, relaxed, and if I know you two > super tanned. ;)

Candi, Haven't heard from you, hope everything is ok.

MKY and EE22: It is all good. Now I do have both sets done. So we are good. Went running around today with my paperwork. I was told it would be no problem to get a placement and I should just enjoy my vacation. I won't hear anything until the teachers are back in the building which is after Labor Day. So I finally feel I can relax a bit.:woohoo:

Tomar: Can't wait to hear all the details of your trip. I guess you will be home tomorrow.

Candi: MKY is right, where have you been???

Hiya EE22, no haven't done much. Wrote out our adr's and info book I keep. And actually changed a couple of Adr's last night. Bug, asked to eat at Crystal Palace for breakfast. I almost fell over. She hates buffets.

Your right about the heat. It is soooooooooooooo hot and humid here. Rained off and on this am. Then it just hanging here the rest of the day. Ick.

Hope Tomar is ok. And we lost Candi somewhere along the way? Hope she is ok.

That is nice, not having to do it yourself. Just hoping, they don't run into unforseen issues. All those contractor tv shows start a project then they are rebuilding the entire house before you know it. :eek: I am starting to think I watch too much tv. popcorn:: Although I am having some issues following the Jersey housewives this season. Don't care for the new ones, think I would rather see crazy Danielle again. :confused3

EEyorelover22

TV is good...as long as it's not the news.

I am fascinated by Hoarders. WOW!! Epic Junk!

07-28-2011, 10:49 PM

Hoarder's scares me. I will wind up an old lady with 50 dogs and junk to the ceiling. :lmao: I have to fight my pack rat mentality constantly. The I binge and purge clutter. Haven't mastered that in an eating disorder yet. :idea:

EEyorelover22

07-28-2011, 10:50 PM

ooooooooooohhhhhhhhh....you know the show about the guy who eats the huge amount of food? I guess he went to the place that's near the stadium where state track is and two of their friends ate the meal he's going to eat.
Man vs. Food They want to see it...won't have a TV though this fall.

They should visit WDW...maybe they have already for the Kitchen Sink!

Can honestly say we have NEVER ordered the Kitchen sink. Seen it, and that was enough. Too messy.

isn't WDW TV terrible???? they need pay movies or something. HBO???

EEyorelover22

07-28-2011, 10:55 PM

Yes it is horrible. DS was so ticked last summer coming over from the Dark Side and he had been watching Spike and WDW didn't have it!

I did watch the making of the World of Color one afternoon while I rested my feet at DL but that was it.

Not much on TV There. Guess they want us out spending our funds!

Do you guys watch Toddlers and Tiaras???? That one actually makes me mad. How do you do that to your kid? Most of the girls don't want to do it, it is all the moms. Hoarders is crazy too! As for Jersey...I still watch it. Seems like there is always drama. Although Danielle was nuts...Theresa is crazy, as is Kim G. I can't imagine so many crazy people all living so close together.:headache:

I've never watched that...I bet DD has. There isn't much else to do at 3 am. I have no idea why she stays up so darn late either.

I never got into Jersey...reminded me too much of the girls at school:eek:

Hoarders: the woman with the 3 dead cats and no working plumbing in her house got to me
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Toddlers and Tiarra's makes me sick too. Weird. Odd you watch it, and feel like a weirdo looking at little kids made up and dressing provacatively. Its like tv for pedofiles.

My fav. show now = Say yes to the dress. And I never wanted a big wedding or dress. I just love the fashions & seeing people with the 39,000 budgets looking for a dress. But, refuse to watch Bridezillas. Want to slap those girls. :confused3

But I am still excited about going to WDW. :banana: Gosh I hate to even think about after the trip. First I hate to have the trip end and then I hate all that laundry and putting things away.

Tomar - MCO sounds just crazy :scared1: We prefer the longer drive from Sanford but this time we'll be joining the MCO craziness - it's sooooo worth it though - 2 weeks from tomorrow :cool1::cool1::cool1:

EE22 - This may be too far of a drive but have you thought about Peoria? We flew into there in April or maybe Delta out of MLI (the rates can be crazy though). We got lucky on the flights now hoping for a decent resort rate :wizard:

Maryann - only 3 days to go - have a great time :thumbsup2

EEyorelover22

07-29-2011, 10:53 PM

Minnie...MCO is NUTS compared to Sanford. Going in of course is not a real issue...leave plenty of time for security. it was brutal last year when we left.

Peoria is too far with work, etc. I even wondered if DM was too far. The flight leaves in the middle of the day Wed so it won't work. Allegient is too high now. Thanks for the thought though...I might check. I even checked SW out of Midway and they are too expensive. Too much money for 4 days is what the issue is.

October usually comes out when I go back to work. Last year was early...
there is a rumor that FD starts August 3rd for the new dates.

Sorry to have been gone so long. I have to do a search to find my last post. I am trying to get caught up but I am only on page 140 as of now.

I can't believe it has been a month since I was on! Where does the time go. I was not spending much time online.

Summer has been busy with a family wedding, the kids in marching band and the new job.

DD15 and I just got home last night from Alaska! LOVED IT! It was cool/cold so the heat is a bit much today. I didn't need to take any shorts and should have brought at least one more sweater with me but it was really nice.

I would never sail Norwegian again. The cruise was not very good and the food sucked! I would have lost weight except the only thing to do was eat and DD15 eats every 3 hours and didn't want to eat alone. :rotfl:

I will tell more later.

MKY - I hope your mom is doing okay ow. :grouphug: Sorry I was not here for you when you were suffering. Is Vader doing okay now?

4 days !:crutches: :crutches: :crutches: :crutches: I just think, next year when we go, bug will be able to walk! :thumbsup2

TP2, have fun this weekend! See you at WDW! :tongue: We didn't do online check and never have. I like the full experience at check in. :rotfl: At midnite, there should not be much of a line. :lmao:

Tomar, I packed today. Right now 1 case is 36# and the other is 20#. [love SW] Have all the esentials. now just need to add the little things. With our lockers in Orlando we don't have to carry too much extra stuff. Just somethings I can't find there. Don't you have something coming up?? Is it when we are gone? text me if you do it.

Whoa, I am sooooooooooooooo blonde. :eek: And very short. Ugh. :rolleyes1 I was kinda surprised in the "beauty" chair. Oh well. It will grow like a weed once I get in the Orlando humidity.

EE2, how many days till its you and DH alone & :teacher:?
Did you guys decide on DL again next year?

Candi are you caught up yet?

EE22: So just think of the nest as only being on a vacation. Because think of all the school breaks and now the cost of living is so high, those birds usually come back and bring other birds with them.:rotfl: So enjoy some time with DH now before the nest is really full again!

Tomar: So now I get to do tons of laundry and pack! But looking forward to 2 weeks in the World. It was very hard to feed dd7 in Cape Cod. So looking forward to getting a break from it all.

08-10-2011, 10:11 PM

Oh guys it's been a rough week - I have an impacted wisdom tooth :sad1::sad1::sad1:

Spent 3hrs at the ER Saturday night, then managed to get into my dentist on Monday, and finally into my DR this morning due to increased swelling :headache: I'm on my 3rd type of antibiotics (ER started on amoxi low dose, dentist said take a higher dose of amoxi, and my DR said as the swelling is up in my face and in the lymp nodes to take cephalexin (started that today) and then add prednisone starting tomorrow. I can't get into to see an oral surgeon until the 22nd :sad1::sad1::sad1:

To be very very honest I'm freaking scared. I've never taken cephalexin and the even scarier prednisone and we leave on Saturday :scared1::scared1::scared1:

Sorry to be a downer but it's happening again.... last year we couldn't go because I ended up in the hospital and now this :eek::eek::eek:

So if anyone has any info on any of these meds and can ease my freak out I'd be very appreciative!!!! So far we are still planning on going but I'm just freaking scared!!!!!

tripplanner2

08-10-2011, 10:19 PM

Minnie: I am so sorry.:sad1: My wisdom teeth came in no problem but I know so many people that suffered. I have heard it is terribly painful when they are impacted. The only thing I can say is that at least it happened before you left and not when you were in Florida. Not a huge help, but something. My daughter was on prednisone but also tons of other meds so I really don't know. If you have diabetes, I know it shoots your blood suger levels up and makes eating tough but not sure you are in that boat. Not sure though why you need prednisone for the tooth, they usually use it for the lungs with asthma or other breathing issues. I so hope you feel better, otherwise you may want to consider rescheduling. Last thing you want is to be stuck down there with health issues after spending all that money. Gonna send some pixie dust your way.pixiedust:pixiedust:pixiedust:pixiedust:

EEyorelover22

08-11-2011, 05:57 AM

Minnie...I am so sorry.
I never had any issues really with prednisone when I took it years ago. It can make you a tad hyper. I've had to take it recently for nasty headaches and it works for the swelling of my head. Didn't have any real issues with it either. I know the kids have taken the other and no issues and DD has a tender stomach.

I hope things work out. I am so sorry:sad2:

TP2: hope you can get ready to go!:lovestruc

TOMAR@SSR

08-12-2011, 11:42 AM

Minnie....Im so sorry about your tooth :sad2:....Ive taken Prednisone more times then Id like to remember, and the only side effect it may cause you would be feeling anxious or nervous...:headache:
I hope and pray that all goes well for you !!:angel:

TP2- are you all ready ?...its almost time ! :cloud9:

08-12-2011, 08:45 PM

Thank you!!! You guys really are the best :goodvibes Feels like I'm talking to friends here - so glad I've go to "meet" you all :grouphug:

Things have changed again.... called the surgeon back today as faced kept swelling. They had me come in and did emergency surgery on the impacted tooth as he was very very worried that the infection was getting worse not better :sick::sick::sick::sick:

He changed my meds again... back to the amoxi 875 and prednisone and of course pain killers - my stomach doesn't like me much!

We are trying now to rebook the trip - hopefully leaving Monday as he said it should be feeling better by then send pixie dust and prayers my way if you don't mind :guilty:

Thanks again guys :grouphug:

Jennmouse - sorry to hear about your mom. Hopefully there will be better days ahead soon.

Minnie - Now that the tooth is out, I hope you are feeling better before long.

MKY - Sorry I was late wishing you a Happy Birthday! :bday:

Okay - I must confess I am not as young as I use to be. :sad2: Working as many hours as I do at my normal full time job (50-55) and then teaching at the college on the weekends (20-22) is taking it's toll. I am SO tired and the summer has flown by.

I got home from the cruise on July 31st and have not had a day off since. Today was my first day off and I still had to get up early to go with the kids to the parade. They are both in the marching band so I have become a band mom as well.......I need to sleep in tomorrow please!!!

Hopefully I will be around on the board more some time soon. I have two more weekends to teach in September and then I am done for the season. :dance3:

Thanks everyone for the :wizard: and :hug: on the tooth. It was miserable there at the start of the trip and I ended up with a dry socket :eek::sick::headache: but towards the end I was able to do more. Mom and DS were wonderful about the whole mess and I learned that I don't have to run all the time or be in the parks the whole time to well have a good time ;)

Proud mom moment - I had an oh my goodness my little boy has grown into a person I can be proud of during our trip. We ended up moving our trip out 2 days and had ressies at the RPR over at Universal - I'd given him a card for a "magical day" at WWoHP and we planned to go over the next morning. Well I was so freaking miserable that night and next morning that I couldn't go. My DS said he'd rather not go and wait for some other time since I wasn't feeling well :lovestruc:lovestruc:lovestruc

I'm now planning a trip for DS and I and maybe DH to go to Universal for a long weekend :goodvibes:goodvibes:goodvibes

Just wanted to let you all know that : WE ARE OUT OF THE WILDERNESS AND HAD OUR POWER RESTORED TODAY !! :cheer2:
I cannot tell you what 6 days of no power in your home is like...we litterally had to throw away all our meats, and perishable foods, clothes to be washed are forever !!:scared1: our backyard looked like a moat with all that water
But all in all we were lucker then alot of other folks that lost thier homes or had flooded basements ....I lost my cell phone (died from overuse I think :laughing:...No...it was a defect of some kind so Im waiting for a replacement to come via fed ex.
MKY-:cutie: thank you for thinking of us , you are sooooo sweet !! :hug:
Has anyone heard from TP2- ? :worried:....are they home?..I hope her home is safe :angel:, Long Island got hit badly as well as New Jersey did.

Well, we made it home.:goodvibes Still totally exhausted and still have tons of laundry surrounding me.:laundy::headache: Had to get kids ready for school today so not much got done with the house but at least they are settled now.

So yes, we came home to a mess but at least our house was fine. Not sure how because every single neighbor around us has damage. There was tree on the house next door and another tree squashed the shed of my other neighbor. The people behind us still have a tree hanging over their roof. Another tree is holding it at bay but it does not look good and I cannot imagine sleeping in that house in the current condition. Funny thing is we have 1 tree that is half in our yard and half in our neighbors. The tree is rotten and we took down our half. Other half is still standing and we thought for sure it would go. Nope...still standing tall.:mad:

I will fill everyone in with details soon. Just wanted to let you know we are home safe and sound and our house is in the clear. Pretty scary to see the mess around here.

Happy Labour Day everyone!

Boy has the weather been crazy this summer. I am glad everyone is safe.

Hockey season started here today with the local Ontario Hockey Team having their first preseason game. Like a good Canadian - we are season ticket holders again this year.

School starts here tomorrow so the kids will be back to a normal routine soon. We now have DD16 - her birthday was the 29th of August. She can now write the test for the learners permit to drive. :banana: Next spring she wants to get her motorcycle license.

I hope everyone is enjoying the last long weekend of summer. :grouphug:

Wow, talk about crazy weather. It was high 90's last week, and swealtering now it is 64 and suppose to be in the 70's [maybe].
Candi, I guess it is hockey season. ;)

EE22, hope your doing ok. And not toooooooooo lonely. I bet its quiet there.

Candi, your girls are growing soooooo fast. Wow, now are you planning to let her get a motorcycle license?

MKY - pixiedust:pixiedust: for tomorrow.

It has gotten very cool here today as well. We had the AC on yesterday and may need the heat tonight. I closed all the windows to keep the heat inside so I am hoping to avoid that.

Yes, I will let DD16 get her motorcycle license. I would be a hipocrit if I said no. Plus I think it would be neat to have her along with us on rides. I bet we have four bikes in the family before too long. DD13 wants a bike to.

Did I tell you we bought DH a bike at the end of July? It is a beautiful 2001 Kawasaki Vulcan Clasic 1500cc Fuel Injected. We bought it over in Michigan and imported it. :banana: So we all go out on our bike night rides now. :cloud9:

Update on my mom: she goes to the doctor on the 20th, and he will decide how serious it is, and whether to do the surgery up in indy (if its serious, an hour away), or surgery here (not serious).. so hopefully we will know something.. i hate all this waiting.. and who knows with all this waiting if its getting worse or not..

on happier notes.. next week (15th) when I get paid i can put another $300 at least into paying off disney, that would leave less than $700 to pay... which makes me happy. I should have it paid off in no time. and as far as money for spending I have $400. and i did a guesstimate on what i should have by the time i go.. im guessing about $1,500. which will be good.. me and sis have alot of plans for this trip..

me and a friend, Rob, are starting to tentatively plan a 2013 disney cruise/park trip. He loves traveling as much as i do. and in 2013 i will be getting 3 weeks vacation.. so i can go up to that much...if it happens it will be a blast..

I would be happy with a decent ap rate. :lovestruc :rolleyes1 ;)

it is true.. it is a distraction. i have 2012's to plan.. and a possible 2013 cruise/park trip. and ya never know maybe a soon move there too.. ive wanted to move back to Kissimmee for years. and now ive found a great guy. and we both hate the cold and love amusement parks.. what better place to have everything we love in one place than Florida? and it has easy access to the cruise ports so it would be easy for us to take more cruises and travel to different countries easy. its really an ideal place for people like us. So im trying to keep busy with all that till mom goes to the doctor next tuesday to see when and where her surgery is gonna be.

Thanks Tomar. Lots of work for her, but she is doing well. Well kinda. :idea:

Did alot of research tonight. OMG, the march prices :scared1: at rack rate are enough to keep me from checking airfare on southwest. :eek:
Still cannot make a resort decision. Think we will wing it & see where the ap rate {if there is one} falls. :confused3
But, we are at about 184 days and I think march is still free dining > so we need to do adr's very very soon.
Plus all this got bug helping me and her mind off her leg. :thumbsup2

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

mky :cool2:

Planning a disney trip is the best way to keep Bug`s mind off her Leg MKY :cutie:. Its been doing wonders for me lately !! ;)
I am noticing the "Out of this world " Prices too....I wish Disney would extend the AP rates soon as well !!!
More Pixie dust for a speedy recovery for Bug !!pixiedust:pixiedust:pixiedust:

Jennmouse- Wishing the best for your mom with her doctor visit ! :angel:

thank you.. im kinda torn on what i want to hhappen... on one hand if its serious she has to go up to indy to have her surgery, its far away, and serious is bad, but.. the hospital it would be is one of the leading in heart healthcare which is good.... but if its not serious they can do the surgery here. closer and doctors she is famliar with, but not one of the tops for heart care like the one in indy is..

Tomar, thanks. :flower3: Bug is doing well. We changed her pain meds and that has helped alot. She walked :crutches: outside on sidewalk today. She needs to work on endurance and went 3 houses down.

EE22, :hug:

Well we are having more drama here today. :sad2: :darth: had a seziure today and is declining at a very fast pace. I think he has some neuro issue {tumor?} other than just seziures and it is progressing. The seziures just being a symptom of what is wrong with him. :sad: Certainly don't need this hitting the fan now. :sad1:

Hope everyone is enjoying cooler weather. Try to enjoy your weekends.

I think our group "luck" has to change soon. Everyone has been having the worse stuff this year. Ugh. Maybe we can do something to lift this voodoo curse.

ee22 & tomar, she wishes she was up on crutches >> using an old lady walker. Only thing missing is the little tennis balls on the end. ;) Her therapist said next week maybe a "cane". :woohoo:

thank you everyone. and past two days on top of everything else. I think im trying to get a sinus infection. so much pressure in my sinuses, sneezing my head off.. horrible headache.. nose keeps runny... so i bought a combo pack of dayquil/nyquil's sinus medicine Sinex. so far so good.. hopefully i caught it soon enough and it doesnt get bad.

Hi everyone.

Glad to hear that Bug is doing better and at least up and about...even if using an old lady walker. ;) :flower3:

So very sorry to hear about Vader. It really has been a difficult time for you lately. I hope things change soon.

A March trip would be nice but the weather can go either way. It rained the entire trip in March 2010 when we took my mom and her friends. The prices that time of year make having the DVC ownership worth while. Let me know if you want to look at renting points.

I can book the 2bdr at AKV on Oct 5th (7 month mark) for our trip next May. We have 9 of us going so far and I am hoping my brother youngest brother and his family decide to come.

I hope things change for the better for eveyone and soon. It has been a difficult summer for the group. :grouphug:

Wow...tons going on. So much bad this year. 2012 has GOT to be better...although I think we said that about 2011.:headache:

There is really nothing to say...Disney is a diversion and you all need a trip next year. For us, we are living in our memories. We all miss our trip but I am so happy we were just there and got away for bit.:cloud9:

Thanks everyone,

Trying desparately here to change our luck. Cross your fingers. ;)

JMouse, So so sorry about mom. pixiedust: pixiedust: pixiedust: pixiedust: for mom. Actually feel better about her going to a bigger center. :hug:Hang in there.

mky:cutie:

to add to the bad luck of 2011.. i just found out from a friend i grew up with that her dad has a tumor in his neck, and that they wont know if its cancer or not till they take it out they are waiting for a surgery date right now..

thanx... we are all freaking out right now. Her surgery is first thing friday morning. the first surgery of the morning. from what she told me about the doctor that is doing it, he has done 6 of the same surgeries in the past 6 months, and they have all discovered it the same way mom did, just by going to the ER for something unrelated. and that he has only been at it for like 8 or 9 years and has done 6 of them already, yet other doctors there have 15+ years under their belt and have never even seen it.. so im hoping since he is well practiced at it that all will go well. they have to stop her heart for a bit thats the big that scares me the most. Ive seen many medical shows.. so it freaks me out

work has been good. I had my asst. manager approve my days. Half day for thursday night then all of friday. I had the time so i put it as vacation time, so i dont lose any more. I will be leaving at 3am thursday night/friday morning and then staying at the hospital hotel friday night and saturday night then sunday my boyfriend is bringing me home cuz i gotta go to work monday night...

in the midst of all this bad luck. Some good luck:tinker: has come my way. in the image of a super wonderful, and supportive :love:boyfriend:lovestruc. he is already so amazing. on top of visiting me at the hospital to keep my company, and driving me home sunday so i can go to work on monday. he, this past weekend surprised me with tickets to the Steelers/Colts game in Indy. He is a colts fan, im a steelers fan. it was my first NFL game. it was great. i had such fun with him. it hurts now that im away from him. he makes me feel like such a princess: its such an amazing feeling to feel that someone actually cares about you..:cloud9::cloud9: its a feeling im not use to from guys..
