38 days!!

UGHHHH am I the only one who always spreads themselves too thin? I still have Hannukah and Christmas with my family, my nieces first bday, school projects, baking, crafts, and packing to do.
not alone there, i was thinking in october, why on earth did i volunteer to host bunco in october? it is the craziest month of the year for me other than Dec. :confused3:rotfl:i always do that to myself!

Those of you in WDW on 12/9, what are your plans for this day next month?
we will be in epcot morning of 12/9- we have ressies for Chefs De France at noon! Then doing MVMCP that night!

I can't believe that today is my 30 day mark, and I'm feeling SAD?!?!?!?!? :eek: I'm just having flashbacks of this past June... I got sick 2 months before our trip. I had my 8th hernia. At that time the surgeon gave me the okay to go on our trip and have the surgery when I got back. WELL, after much planning, the day finally arrived, we were packing for our early morning flight, the kids had already gone to bed, and my hernia strangulated. We had to cancel the trip at the last minute for me to have emergency surgery.

So, as a make-up to the kids (and ME ;)), we planned this trip. Now, yesterday I get the news that my achilles tendon is 50% GONE and I need foot surgery. Once again the surgeon says I can wait until after the trip, but I can't help but worry. I'm so afraid I'm going to ruin another trip. :guilty:

AND - I'm having a little pity party, too! :upsidedow I can't believe that I need another surgery!!! This makes 10 in 10 years. :eek: I told my friend at the ER I wanted a fastpass!!! ;)
i am so sorry you are having bad memories of that cancelled trip. bummer! but think positive about this trip. and i agree, swallow your pride and get a scooter. it will make life much easier and you can enjoy the trip without worry- and your family will too- otherwise, they might always be asking you if you are okay etc. lol at the surgery FP!! you deserve one! :grouphug: My cousin was the same way, too proud to get a wheelchair. But then she spent half the trip in the room, sick and miserable or just sitting on a bench waiting on us instead of having fun. if she would have gotten a chair, she would have been able to participate more! so i say swallow your pride and get a scooter or chair. at least for part of the trip!

Those of you in WDW on 12/9, what are your plans for this day next month?

I have been tossing this one back and forth for weeks. We will not arrive at MCO until 6:45. Best case scenario will put us at MVMCP by 9. Staying at POP and taking ME, so we may need to snag a taxi to MK. Which would be fine with us! As three adults, we can stay until they turn off the lights and kick our booties out. All other parks will be closed, so the only other option is DTD. It's okay, but not MK. We won't be tired, it is only a short non-stop flight. The only thing stopping me from buying the tickets (besides that I am the cheapest person on the planet) is what-if's. Weather, flight, platypus attack, act of God etc. Just crossing fingers that there will be three tickets left for us when we are ready to fork out the dough.

Now that I have DIScovered Earl of Sandwich in San Antonio, there is no big hurry to get to DTD. :lmao:
 
so tell me if we got some goodies. we got the free dining promo, and upgraded to DxLDP.

12/12 arrive at MCO @ 10:54 & using ME to CBR

LOL We are going to be at the same parks every single day except for you AK day. We don't care for AK. Some days we're even at the same restaurants, but different times <G>
 
43 days!!!!

Here are our ADRs:

Dec. 25 Biergarten 4:25 (CLPDP)
Dec. 26 Sci-Fi 4:10
Dec. 27 Tusker House 5:20

The 23 will consist of mom and I going to WWOHP and dad and brother golfing then if we feel like it going to DTD in the evening. I originally had one for Liberty Tree Tavern on the 24, but my Dad and brother decided to go golfing that morning and I couldn't get any later times other than 2:40 and I couldn't justify missing the parade. Also, I didn't make one for the 28 since I'm not sure whiwch park we will be at. I'm getting sooooo excited! This will be our first time at WDW during Christmas and we haven't been on any Disney properties since January 2006. I have a few other countdowns I'm looking forward to as well:

9 days until my birthday/late night Harry Potter premiere (possibly)

38 days until end of semester

46 days until Christmas

2 months 9 days until I begin student teaching

6 months 5 days until I graduate with my bachelors in science: secondary education: composite social science degree

Hi, coming back to celebrate with everyone! 38 days for us:dance3:, seems unbelievable. I have been away for a bit, so glad to be caught up on the new thread.
 
Do you guys remember way back a few months ago when I moved our trip so we wouldn't have to give up our tickets to see Ira David Wood III's "A Christmas Carol"? I just heard on the news this week that he needs heart surgery and will not be doing the show. He's done it for 35 years, we buy tickets, and he gets sick. I feel like I cursed him. :guilty: I sure hope he is going to be okay. :guilty:

I had heard about David's surgery the other day and thought about you. The show still will be great since his son is going to be doing the part. Also his daughter, Evan Rachel Wood, is going to produce the show. Last I heard she broke up with Maryilyn Manson.
 
I am only 37 real days, 24.5 work days (4 hours of overtime tomorrow), 1 maxillofacial surgery (wisdom teeth getting pulled), 1 Harry Potter release night 12 am screening, 1 Thanksgiving Dinner (with 26 family members), 2 Disney theme nights away from the trip of a lifetime!
 
I have been tossing this one back and forth for weeks. We will not arrive at MCO until 6:45. Best case scenario will put us at MVMCP by 9. Staying at POP and taking ME, so we may need to snag a taxi to MK. Which would be fine with us! As three adults, we can stay until they turn off the lights and kick our booties out. All other parks will be closed, so the only other option is DTD. It's okay, but not MK. We won't be tired, it is only a short non-stop flight. The only thing stopping me from buying the tickets (besides that I am the cheapest person on the planet) is what-if's. Weather, flight, platypus attack, act of God etc. Just crossing fingers that there will be three tickets left for us when we are ready to fork out the dough.

Now that I have DIScovered Earl of Sandwich in San Antonio, there is no big hurry to get to DTD. :lmao:

Platypus attack?! Hilarious!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::laughing::lmao::lmao::lmao:
 
:banana::banana: another 42 days till i get to see all the christmas decorations and the osborne lights. i just hope mother nature is kind this year and doesn't let loose with any bad weather on the morning i leave for disney, she can let loose after my plane takes off. :banana::banana:
