Well I'm already terribly behind.
Why? Because I woke up with the mother of all headaches. So bad that I used an icepack, made hubby put pressure on my sinuses (haven't had anyone else do that since my mom was alive and I was around her! much nicer than pushing on your own cheekbones), drank coffee early, AND took two ibuprofen. Absolutely unprecedented.
So now I'm still tense from the headache though the full-on pain is gone, but I'm a bit woozy from the ibuprofen, to which I am ridiculously sensitive.
Robert and E have gone off to grandma's...I was supposed to go to but didn't want to, so maybe this is some sort of universal gift, giving me a reason to not go. Or maybe I slept wrong. Or maybe the universe would have fallen out of the, um, sky? if I'd actually been prepared, ontime, with all of us getting to sleep by 8 like I wanted! Who knows? All I know is I'm at home while they are having a visit.
We've made it a bit easier on ourselves by deciding to check one bag instead of doing all carryon to avoid the $15 first checked bag fee. I was stressing about fitting our liquids into 3 baggies...we're bringing our own peanut butter and jam for E, and although we found little packets, they took up TWO baggies! Which left us cramming two hair product packages, sunscreen in a 3 oz bottle, arnica in a 3 oz bottle (can't do disneyland without arnica cream), and that was too much! So I have played a mental game with myself, pretending that the airline tickets were $5 more each (and since we got a screamin' deal thanks to a kind dis'er's VA code that's still a deal), and just paid for the checked bag. We're taking Alaska home, and for our trip they still have one free checked bag per person, so it'll just be that one, one-bag, fee for the whole trip.
Of course I still want to take some of the PB&J in a baggie, so it's mainly the hair products that *have to* be in the checked bag. Oh the things we have to contend with in this era of air travel...
Next time we'll have extra budgeted funds to just go to Sephora and get hair goop! And a quick trip to walmart while there to get our fave sunscreen (No Ad, a walmart brand, of excellent sunscreen with no stinkiness, no stickiness, and it smooths on like the most expensive moisturizer...it's the one thing I love from walmart!). Hmm, sounds like I'd be an excellent candidate for Owners Locker if they branched out to Anaheim!
Well I think my first load of laundry is done. OH, and we've decided to schedule in a time to do laundry during the trip, so we don't have to bring allllll the clothes, so that's nice. Anyway, I gotta keep moving! Gotta give the guys haircuts, too, when they get home. Ack!
I'm still trying to figure out if we should keep our b'day Minnie's PS...decisions decisions.
I was worried about a computer virus, but we ran a Mac antivirus scan and I'm fine. So hubby figures some spammer with a password program snagged mine and sent out an email to everyone on my list. 
Were Eamon and Peter Pan reunited? How many times did everyone make it on GRR in this trip? Did you decide to do Minnie and Friends? These questions and more are eagerly awaiting responses!! I think I had forgotten this was a bit of a longer trip for you until today - or am I imagining that it was longer? Wasn't this trip longer by a day or two than your previous family trips to DLR? I could be going senile and making up things, but it seemed longer!
