[MommyMinnie]

that is what I thought. If he was coming back tomorrow I wouldn't worry too much but he is not coming back until next Monday!!
In any case I emailed my dad and told him to call his.

Definately don't give up V. Someone there should be able to help you out.

 

[MommyMinnie]

(barging through that 40 second rule!!!!)

ARRGGHHH!!!

Good job Caroline!

 

[tynkerbell]

is DIS really slow today or is it just me? It's driving me crazy!

It's taking a really long time for pages to load here for me today also.

 

[tynkerbell]

keeping my same cabin I would get $497.44 back or I could pay $202.56 for a 6, $402.56 for a 5 or $602.56 for a 4.


I am just bummed that I can't have anyone else help me. I hope there are still rates available when he gets back.

I think you really need to call back and insist that they find someone who can access your file!!! There's no way you should have to lose out on a better deal just because your TA is on vacation.

The Library is (gasp!) CLOSED today!

No laptop back from repairs yet.

I'm actually at Kinkos spending 20 cents/minute TRYING to catch up. Not gonna happen unless I spend some big bucks! Will be hopelessly behind.

OMG....you have it bad...we may need an intervention!

 

[lillygator]

I think I would be in trouble at a library, I know how much I have cracked up over some posts...I bet the librarian would kick me out!

But hey, what ever it takes to feed the addiction.

 

[RealMickey]

I know some of you are also DVC'ers....Well I got my 15th anniversary gift print in the mail today!



Sorry, I just got a little excited!

[lillygator]

only 3pm...and I am ancy. Want to go home............

 

[RealMickey]

What was it!!

For the 15th anniversary of Disney Vacaton Club, they are sending members an 11X14 canvas print stretched on a frame. It's real cute!

 

[Jhalkias]

Hey John..did Sophia get home yet? Did she have a great time?!?!

She is on her way now, and was in tears leaving her cousins. She probably will not get home until the middle of the evening - around 7-8 - it is a 9 hour drive!

there was no pricing, sudoku, stomping of grapes, or movie watching in this quality time...

Well....that is a crying shame!

I want to start off with how much fun the girls and I had on Saturday. I swear I was comfortable with everyone from the start! How often does one feel their children are safe around "strangers" in an instant? I had the same feeling in Baltimore. The kids got along great and made some real connections. If anyone else has the opportunity to meet others before the cruise DO IT!! I know it will feel like we are meeting up with "old friends" when we get to the terminal. If I get this opportunity again, I will definately try to bring DH. He does have some issues about the internet and talking with people, but he will quickly learn what this is truly all about. I will tell him soon.

Brack, Annette, and JoJo - I wish we had more time to see you. You are very sweet and friendly! I'm glad you had a nice time and Annette had the chance to see we are not Dina loved meeting JoJo!

Elaine, Ken, Giona, and Jeae - What a fun, friendly, and energized family! I was so thrilled when I saw online that you would be making the trip! What a surprise that you were able to just hop on your plane and meet us! I'm just sorry that my children are not as enthusiastic about the big rides and couldn't spend as much time with yours. I hope to be able to spend some time with you on the cruise to talk about your adventures. My DH would love to hear about them as he loves to travel as well.

Kristina, Andy, and Devon - It was so great to see you again! What a difference a trip makes. It seemed like Andy and Devon were much more comfortable. Sarah had a good time going off to play games with Devon. How is it I had no worries about letting her go off without me? I'm just sorry they will be in different clubs, but they can hang out doing lots of other things on board. If you want to see Andy smile, just introduce him to a Bernie (or take him on a plane ride)!! Kristina is the sweetest!!

Brandi, Jason, Jake, and Eliza - What an awesome family! Thank you so much for showing us your "backyard." Ok, Kristina's old backyard too! You don't know the thrill I got when I drove through Schuylkill Haven knowing I would be meeting you soon. Sorry we didn't get to have dinner Friday. Dina is still talking about Jake and loved seeing the pictures we have as well as the ones Kristina posted. She totally gets that he and the other kids she has met will be on the cruise with her. And she just adored Eliza!

It is uncanny, but everyone was just as I had thought they would be. The park and dinner was so fun and exciting. I am sure that anyone who saw us had no idea that we had never "met" before! There was never a moment of uneasiness with talking about everything and anything! No silent glances. No long pauses in conversation. No "what do we say or do now." We truly had a wonderful time.

Very well said. Thanks so much Caroline!

OMG....you have it bad...we may need an intervention!

Back for just a sec....had to actually do some work for DH....can you imagine?! The nerve.

And yes, my name is Charlotte and I'm addicted to this thread....already!

 

[ds2Mom]

I know some of you are also DVC'ers....Well I got my 15th anniversary gift print in the mail today!



Sorry, I just got a little excited!

Congratulations on the neato gift!

We sooooo should've bought into DVC years ago. Who knew?!

It's not too late!!

 

[klineyqueen]

Okay I know we are getting close ...2 months and some of you have elected to dress as some of the people from POTC ....and I know some of you should do it cause there are plenty of characters left but when I saw this picture of Brack (edited cause I thought you were DrHug...sorry) I thought this would be perfect ...

Brack should be Mr. Gibbs

So What does everyone Think

I agree!!! That would be a great Mr. Gibbs.
