IS Dis tag the same as Fish extender?

 

[millerpjm]

I will be doing the same thing!!!

Yup...we just live too far away from the mouse to do anything other than save and plan for a week-long trip. Plus, we figure 7 or so days is a good amount of time to see the 4 main parks with a little down-time in between.

That is the best thing to do with kids. No rushing through it all and you will need down time.

Essentially, yes.

There's a good explanation on Cass's site....essentially we're organizing the exchange of little gifts (although I heard Jeff's handing out $50 to everyone) on the BOB cruise.

Yep...that's my thought. We probably don't need to worry about getting to the waterparks since we have really nice waterparks and waterpark hotels here in WI (go figure) but I figure 1 day for AK, 1 day for EPCOT, 2 days for MK, and 1 or 2 days for MGM (or whatever the new name is - it's still MGM to me)

Another rainy day here in Maine. Weatherman says the sun will be out by noon??
Nancy is working until noon and I start doing my 2 month job at the Fishway
Tonight Nancy and I are going out to celebrate our anniversary at a local Italian Restaurant. Ghosh 42 years with my bride doesn't seem possible.
After we get back we will be busy watching RED SOX, Bruins, Celtics.
Great time of year for Boston sports fans.

PS Di and Walt how about those Sox

Good morning!

Another day of drizzle is forecasted. I am waiting for nice weather so I can paint my garage. First I have to rent a pressure washer to knock the lose paint off though. I would rather do that in nice weather!
I saved the tick thinking right away it was a deer tick and put it in a small sealable container, but the Dr. didn't need it. They said to wait a week or so to see if she developed the standard lyme disease rash. Well, she did develop the rash, and we took her in and the Dr. verified it. They then started her on antibiotics right away. She was nauseous during the treatment, but has been fine ever since. The good thing is that if it is treated right away, you pretty much beat it.

We saved the tick as well, but the doctor didn't want it for testing. My DW has been checking her neck and says that the rash never developed. (or other symptoms either)

Good morning all!

Sadly, no MNSSHP tickets for us... but we decided in the end we didn't want one day later in the evening, when DS is tired, to be his first look at the Magic Kingdom. We're headed straight home after the BOB cruise, where I will begin scheming and planning for when we can get out to WDW. I'm not sure if it will be 2010 or 2011 since we'll need to save up some $$$....

Congrats to all the BOBers who got their tickets!

I will be doing the same thing!!!

Us too!!! We might even try to squeeze in a Wonder cruise too.

Hey Dan/NancyK, can you please post the link to your cool smilies?

 

[EPCOT_VA]

Does anyone else sense a lot of lurkers out there circling as we approach #1800? Circling....like sharks? (Jeff, are you out there?)

Jen, How are you and Thomas doing?

We're doing ok. I have to keep reminding myself I can't make everything better in a week or two...it's going to take time. But, I'm starting to get things set up.

-I met with a child psychologist that I think we'll be working with. The first appointment was just with me - getting heath history, background info, etc. Tomorrow, I will be taking Thomas for the first time, and if things go well, then we've found our psycologist.

-I've told Thomas's teacher what's going on, and she will be having the school psychologist call me to set up a meeting to see what we can do to help Thomas at school.

-I've gotten my insurance stuff figured out (the first person I spoke with said they weren't going to cover anything) and I have a contact person to call if they start denying claims.

-I'm filling out forms for FMLA, so that I can take unpaid leave if I need to take time off work for Dr. appointments, school meetings, etc.

As a result of getting all this organized...I don't get to post nearly enough on the DIS

Happy Anniversary!!! Enjoy your dinner.

I was thinking about that too, but I'm not sure 3 or 4 days would be enough!!!!

Thomas has to come first. It looks like you are doing everything right so far.

This DIS is too slow for anyone to win.
