Now I'm jealous
I'm with you! We are going back at Christmas and are sooo excited but no one gets it - well boo to them
Now I'm jealous
I did the same thing to DH - he was like 'uh-huh'... On the plus side though when he scares me and says things like 'one day I'd like to surprise you with a trip' he at least knows who to find online for help lolI said to my husband last night, "Xipotec ordered tiaras for his wife and daughter, where's my tiara?" I got the Mr. Spock raised eyebrow in return. He may be considering commitment at this point. I did look at some adult tiaras last night on Amazon just for giggles. There were some really nice ones for $20. I'm not really the tiara type though.
I finally caved yesterday morning and turned on the heat too. It was 59 degrees in the house when I woke up and since it was in the low 30's out it was just going to get colder. My mom is up right now too and she can't tolerate the cold the way I can. Right now it is 31 degrees out and we are expecting a high of 53. I hope it stays like this so that I can really appreciate Florida when we get down there.
Yay on your MB's!
CuteSo guys, I finally surprised my girls! Here is my video, sorry it is sideways!

That is so sweet of you.
I don't know how cold it got the last 2 nights here, but I caved and turned on the heat.
I will take 65 in a heartbeat.
My MB should be arriving today.

Hear Hear!
Thank you for the valuable information as well. I'm going to find a Tiara and when the first CM says "Good day your majesty", I'm going to turn around to the fam and say "See? I told you so".
I managed to pack 99% of my clothes for a 7 day cruise into a carry-on suitcase. Try rolling your clothes that may wrinkle. It may help. Or depending what you're doing, do you have access to an iron or pressing service (if you're on a cruise).
Ya those 30's are tough to not turn on the heat. My bedroom said 64 when I went to bed. I refused to cave and just added a blanket
Has any of you heard of magicscarf.com?
They have some really pretty clothes that honestly are wrinkle free.
You can order from the website but I've seen them around in stores. We have a "Paper store" that sells them.
I bought some through a friend last year. It's tricky if you are heavier in the chest area to get the right size on the website, but my friends all had nice outfits that looked really pretty on them.They truly do have a one size fits many ability. I have a nice jacket that I might pack for Disney.
We turned on the heat yesterday too. 37 degrees when the kids were walking to school this morning.
And to add insult to injury, my washer and dryer went a few weeks ago so we had to drop a bundle on them. Then 2 days later we found out that the furnace for the second floor needs to be replaced! They still haven't come yet to do that so we've been sleeping with extra blankets and hope that the heat rises from the first floor.
TG our WDW trip was paid for already or I think DH might have said forget it. The cost of all of these new appliances are what we are spending on WDW. Surprisingly DH said he's glad we are going on the WDW trip because he knows we now won't get there for 2-3 years, with our new addition on the way.
6 days now!!! Less than a week!!!
Frustrated though because the dining website still isn't working for me and won't let me search for tables. This is the second day now. Missed out on coordinating an ADR with another Diser because of it. Ugh

I'll definitely have to check that website out. I hope they ship to Canada....some companies don't ship to Canada

I turn on the heat when it hits 67 inside. I need it at 71 inside to be comfortable. I am royalty after all . Our heating costs are low in winter though because we have so many windows that when it's sunny during the day, it warms the house right up.
I'm going with my version of tourist attire: hoodie, tshirt, jean capris and runners or my TOMS. That's it for this trip. Trying to pack light.

Please keep my family in prayers. My 96 year old grandmother died this week and the funeral is tomorrow. And my husbands 96 year old grandmother fell and there is lots going on there too. DHs family is being very supportive in reassuring us to keep looking forward to our vacation.
It's all so draining to be dealing with your own feelings rationally and then trying to work around others issues.

For those with the household repair expenses.....I feel your pain. The past 3 years I've felt the money pit feelings. We've had very limiting health bills too.
So ya I'm glad I've already paid for the vacation and there are few things that would cancel the vacation.

Ok I blew a lot of yesterday answering emails and on the phone.
I'm going to try to log out of here and go do some constructive things like get my suitcases off my college son's bed so he has a place to sleep tonight if he decides to come home tonight instead of the morning.
22 days until my November trip.
And feels super weird to say 99 days for my solo trip! But
Hey fellow Canuck! Should we do our secret handshake (where I pass you a Timmies).
So, who's from where in the November posse?

My grandma died this week too. She was 91 and had terminal bone cancer. My family doctor (who delivered me) died on Thanksgiving/Columbus day of a sudden heart attack. And my grandpa just got out of the hospital, needs to go in for surgery, but its very risky and they are not sure they are going to do it.
It's been a crappy two weeks. I am hoping some Disney mojo will help.
