I have promised myself that I am just about done shopping for this trip. The only clothes I may need is a pair or two of capri pants but I am going to wait to see what the status of that is until closer to my trip.
I received my bathing suit from Old Navy today. It was awful! It is so low cut that it is indecent. I can't wear it. It is being returned.
I think I can get by with my older one, we'll see as we get closer.
Continuing where we left off....
Purchase #6
My super duper Mini Tripod! It folds to 9 inches which fits into my cargo sling beautifully. It also weighs less than 1lb. It opens up to 42 inches. I won't lie, it's not the most sturdy thing ever but it works for my purposes. I don't plan on leaving my camera on the tripod for extended periods of time and I want it just to steady the camera during fireworks and parades. I am very pleased with it.
Purchase #7
It's a craft iron!! It's so cute and teeny and perfect for.....
Purchase #8
....iron on crystal Princess bling! Which will be used on the three amazing t-shirts that Jen and I are making.
Purchase #9
2 White T-Shirts and 1 Black T-Shirt for each of us. I don't have pictures of them but they are T-Shirts.
I will show you the designs that we are using though. I am nice like that.
White T-Shirt for Friday
I found the fairy graphics on
ms.pinkpixie's design thread and then I put them together in paint so they could be on one T-Shirt.
Black T-Shirt for Saturday
I saved this graphic a long time ago, I've seen it in multiple places here on the DIS so I don't know who to give credit too.
White T-Shirts for Sunday
I love these designs! Miss Paula was kind enough to edit/enhance another DISers design that they no longer personalize. I love them and can't wait to wear them to Cinderella's Royal Table.
Jen is printing out the transfers since my printer still can't be installed on my computer.
Then she is sending them to me and I am going to do the transferring and blinging. I am very excited!
Purchase #10
My first vacation book. I read really fast so I want to bring 2 to 3 fiction books and then one Disney book. I am trying to find smaller books so it won't add a lot of weight to my Cargo Sling.
Jane Austen Ruined My Life by Beth Pattillo
English professor Emma Grant has always done everything just the way her minister father told her she should -- a respectable marriage, a teaching job at a good college, and plans for the requisite two children. Life was prodigiously good, as her favorite author Jane Austen might say, until the day Emma finds her husband in bed with another woman. Suddenly, all her romantic notions a la Austen are exposed for the foolish dreams they are.
Denied tenure in the wake of the scandal and left penniless by the ensuing divorce, Emma packs up what few worldly possessions she has left and heads to England on a quest to find the missing letters of Jane Austen. Locating the elusive letters, however, isn't as straightforward as Emma hoped. The owner of the letters proves coy about her prize possessions, sending Emma on a series of Austen-related tasks that bring her closer and closer to the truth, but the sudden reappearance of Emma's first love makes everything more complicated.
In the end, Emma learns that doing the right thing has very little to do with other people's expectations and everything to do with her own beliefs. Laced with fictional excerpts from the missing letters, Jane Austen Ruined My Life is the story of a woman betrayed who uncovers the deeper meaning of loyalty.

Obligatory PTR artistic toiletry photo.
I do need to get some sunscreen and more bobby pins for my hair.
So, I am pretty much set on making purchases for the trip. I am hoping to get all of my Disney trip stuff put away into my suitcases this weekend. That way for the big apartment move, everything will be in one place and I won't lose any of it. I am also hoping that if I "pack away" the Disney stuff, I will be more motivated to do some real packing.
I'm going to leave you with photos of my cat chewed Disney Crocs. Good thing they don't fit me or I would be really, really mad at Ruby. I think she thinks she is a dog.
Needless to say, all of my Crocs have been secured where Monster Kitty can not get to them.
