GOOD MORNING NICE SUNNY DAY HERE. A GREAT DAY FOR THE YANKEES TO LOSE

 

[lilliansmommy]

OK, so I will post a question to you all. Did any of you apply for the openings for the 2011 Disney Moms Panel??? I did back in September and am anxiously awaiting an email saying I made it to the next round. Not sure if I will get it though, as they are only picking like 10 people. Have any of you ever served on this fabulous panel?? Know anyone who has???

Anyone have advice for insomnia? This has been going on 2+ weeks!!! I am going to go crazy! 2 hours of sleep, wakeup, 1 hour, wakeup, 1 hour doze, done! At least I can lurk here when I can't sleep. No coffee, no caffeine of any form EXCEPT for 1 cup of tea in the a.m., no sugars (fruit or desert) after 3pm, working out a great deal, etc. Going Crazy!

I applied one time and got the thanks-but-no-thanks reply. It was when it first started out though. There are alot of people who apply for such few spaces, but you knew can tell - you might get lucky!

Kinda sounds like what I do every night! I do drink coffee throughout the day but I have done that for the last 20 years or so, so that shouldn't affect my sleeping habits now. But I don't get more than a few hours every night and am up at least twice each night. I wish I could find the answer, and then I would be more than willing to share the magic with you! Do you have alot of stress going on?

Ohhh, that is a tough one. I am also suffering from insomnia as we speak. Last night, I got about 3 hours of sleep total. I don't even feel tired. Not sure I can offer any suggestions. I am looking for some myself. Have you tried counting sheep??? LOL!! I have.

There are actually dads on the panel!!! The name Disney Moms Panel is a bit deceiving, if you ask me. I think they should change it. But totally agree with you.

SHAWN WE MIGHT BE STAYING AT THE PORT THIS YEAR WITH MARK AND MICHELLE, OUR TABLE MATES. IF WE DO ID LIKE TO TRY FISHLIPS

 

[LUVMICKEY]

Don't feel dumb - I did the same thing when I joined the thread mid-stream for the ssmc09. I didn't have a clue as to what an FE was. Even though I had cruised before I had never taken part in a "group" and it took me ages to finally remember that - oh, yea, that thing where they put messages IS a fish! hehehe But they are alot of fun and it added alot of excitement to not only the cruise itself but to the pre-cruise fun at our house, getting all of the gifts ready!

Thank you for the encouragment about the FE'S. Even though we've been on 4 other Disney cruses, I don't think I've ever seen these hanging on the fish, or is it just the member cruise that does it?

Cool. We will be there also, if ya want we can grab dinner maybe, they had a large menu and the food was pretty good.. We are talking Radison again or may be Holiday Inn Express, depends on if we have a free stay for either... lol

I believe most cruises do it. We were on the Disney Wonder for Thanksgiving and the FE were EVERYWHERE!!! We wanted one!! We now know what they are, and can't wait to participate. However, not sure if my gifts will be that elaborate, as I am NOT very talented/skillful in artsy things.

I guess I have stress in my company but there is not much I can do about that (small business owner). I even do yoga!

I think that's my problem, my brain won't turn off!

As far as the iPhone deal...

Did anyone hear that the Wall Street Journal has substantiated the claims that Verizon will be getting the iPhone next year? I'm really excited, because I'd *love* to have a smart phone!

Exactly! I would have thought the yoga would help! And I hate taking any type of drugs just for sleep. It's bad enough I have to take them for the migraines. Have you ever heard about any herbal remedies and if they really work?
