[Walt & Di]

Trixie Pancake, cub reporter, here again and you're not going to BELIEVE what I saw today! For those of you who don't know me that well, I have a black belt in shopping, and the shoes to match. So, when I say this is a big deal, you gotta believe me!

I stopped in Mouse Gears, one of my favorite Disney stores, just to 'look around' But much to my astonishment, Disney was having a SALE! Yes, a SALE, the weekend before CHristmas! And not just a few little trinkets, all Christmas hats and certain jewelry and watches were 50% off (that's fifty percent off)! Tshirts (all tshirts, even a fancy purple tshirt with velvet piping and a satin embroidered Mickey) and Christmas ornaments were 40% off. Yes, you heard right! I have never seen anything like this before.

OK, so after seeing this unbelievable sign, I couldn't let this opportunity pass me by (people were approaching the sign with awe, their mouths hanging open in disbelief, reading to the bottom to see if there was any 'fine print') Of course, there was 'fine print' but it wasn't so bad. It just said that the discount couldn't be combined with any other discount. OK, I can live with that.

Since I've finished all my Christmas shopping for everyone else, there was only one person left to shop for - me! So I got me the above mentioned t-shirt (did I mention it was 40% off?) and a Mickey Mouse watch (you can never have too many) with 9 interchangable Holiday bands (Pink & Blue Christmas, Halloween, Valentines, Easter, Thanksgiving, St. Pat's, and a Red, White and Blue one suitable for Patriotic Holidays, plus a plain old black one for going to work, which isn't a holiday ). Did I mention the watch was 50% off!!!

Oh boy, what a day!!!

wow what great deals. The stores (Target, Kohls, World Market, etc) are having these sales too. I can't believe it before Christmas instead of after Christmas. Di

Trixie Pancake, cub reporter, bringing you the scoop on today's EPCOT DISMeet!

I, being the last to arrive, due to unforeseen circumstances let's just say HERTZ truly lived up to their name today, perhaps they should just change their name to PAINFUL so it's even more descriptive, was greeted by Mimi and Karen wildly waving their arms to get my somewhat distracted attention. (whew, talk about a run on sentence!) I also was met by Cheryl and her daughter Rachel and was informed that the men were holding down a table for us. Inside was TikiMack, Al and Neil & Ellis, who is just cute as a little button. Mimi asked Ellis what was he was looking forward to most on the cruise and he said playing with Logan! Mimi made us little tree ornaments with the BASH logo on them and Karen brought Christmas cards for all. My contribution was Godiva chocolate Santas, which Ellis seemed to really enjoy. Many pictures were taken, unfortunately, none by me, since I was lucky just to get myself there, much less the camera. So you will have to wait until someone else posts! Mimi managed to track down an adorable French CM ooo la la! who told us we had to say 'fromage' instead of 'cheese' since we were in France I just hope he waited until we got to the end of the word and not when we were all saying 'fro' because that would look pretty silly. However, that should be soon, since we are all afraid on getting on Nancy's bad side . I'm so glad that I was able to make it and I can't wait to see everyone again in October!!!

Unfortunately, Paige & Mel and their families were not able to make it.

thanks for the update coco puff pancake. whoops, i mean trixie.

I think the picture is great. What a pretty tree. Di

Happy Birthday Robin!!

So, Robin..what did you get for your birthday?

I got a Disney Classic Collectibles...Cinderella's "Thank you so Much",a DCL watch and a framed pic from our trip in Oct. of Mike proposing to me in front of the castle.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROBIN!!!​

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Robin

Walt and Di

Happy Be-lated Birthday Bernie
and
Happy Birthday Robin!!!

​

Thanks to everyone for the great birthday wishes. In regards to a POOCHIE... no dice. As much as I would love to have one right now, I think I'd like to wait until I finish school so that I can give it my full attention and spoil it rotten. Mike knows how I am with animals. I wonder if he'll be ready to take the back seat again?

When I get home from work, I have a habit of greeting the dog before I greet Mike. OOPS!
