So I totally forgot to say anything about it yesterday, even though that was the reason I came on to post.. so now I have to say it here:
THERE'S (less than) ONE MONTH UNTIL DISNEY!
That's right! As of today, we officially have less than one month left!
So many times today, I thought about getting there, and I got butterflies in my stomach. I'm so excited!
Tomorrow (well, today, since it's 12:59 am), Lou is coming over to my house and we're going to watch the Disney Planning DVD he got (that I sent him), make a Garden Grocer list, etc. I just can't let him get on the Dis, so he doesn't see anything that will ruin the surprise.
I have a great plan to capture his reaction:
I'm going to say "oh, I'm going to take a picture of our room number for the DIS" but really set the camera on video, and then have him open the door while I furtively film him. Then I'll show everyone when we get back!
Yesterday, to celebrate one month left (and because he loved the food on Friday), Lou brought me onto a boat (the Majesty) he was working for two days because the narrator has swine flu, so he covered for the guy during his lunch break from Codzilla.
It's a lunch cruise, so he still gets fed, and it has lots of good food.
After he narrated part of it, he came down and ate with me, then went back up and did some more while I ate dessert (strawberry shortcake, yum!)
Then he scared me by poking me and saying "Hey"
, I didn't know he was going to come back down! He invited me into the wheelhouse, where I got to meet the captain (she's incredibly nice!) and sit there for the rest of the time, so I had a great view!
We looked at the time while we were eating and realized that at that time we should be at our hotel next month! And then when we talked later that night while I was looking up a bus schedule for him, we realized that in a month, we'd be sitting down at the Dessert Buffet!
This is so exciting! I'm waiting for my new Magical Express luggage tags, and then we're done with mail and stuff until we leave!
I went to the store the other day to buy a few things:
Benedryl because his hands swell up sometimes (we don't know why), and he has seasonal allergies, and because I sometimes have trouble breathing, which I also think is seasonal allergies, but I'm not sure.
He bought a new water bottle the day we got the upgrade, it has one of those gel tubes in it that you freeze - that one's going to be his, I'll use my little Kool-Aid and Lemonade packets in plastic bottles, thank you very much! (Yes, I will probably end up stealing his water, I know.)
SPF 70 sunscreen - It was only a dollar more than the SPF 35, and I don't know if he'll have had the surgery on his shoulder to remove a mole that the doctor didn't like (I forget if I told this story already?). If not, better safe than sorry.
I think that's it for now.... it's getting close! And for a lot of you who are reading this, you're going before me, so it's even closer for you!
Are we all excited?
