3 days to go and I can't get excited...

[matjef9091]

I don't get it, I have planned, phones, read every post and was so excited to go.. now there are only three short days, and I can't get that "disney feelin". What is up with this? Anyone else out there feel this way? Will it pass?

Are you feeling OK?? Just kidding.

It will pass! It will hit you when you least expect it. Your body is probably emotionally overwhelmed with all the planning. Who know's it might not hit you till your walking down mainstreet. Then all the excitement will come back like a flood!!

Have a great time!!

I think that all of the stress of just getting there does that to you sometimes. I felt the same way. We had 9 people so I kind of felt like the family in Home Alone. I kept feeling like we would lose one of the little ones somewhere en route to Disney. As soon as we got there, the feeling passed.

I always get this last minute fear that it won't be as wonderful as I remember - but then I get there and I am just filled up with wonder - it is the only vacation that I take where I am on vacation as SOON as I GET there and I never want to leave.

Thanks for your replies.. I know I am being foolish and I will be fine, but it is that "what am I forgetting" ...

 

[LYNSUE]

I too have experienced that feeling. The cause is always the same...anxiety from having to fly. But it is usually pretty easy to talk my way past that with the antisipation of being at WDW once again.

 

[twinkle4910]

im leaving on friday and im not that excited, i haven't even packed yet, but then again i do that last min. so i don't forget anything. but i know that im not excited cause im terrified to fly but once we land in FL i know i'll be excited and be fine i just need to get over the plane issue and i'll be excited.

 

[ihave4kids]

I am leaving in less than two days and have also been planning for months and now just cant seem to be excited.I know I worry way too much,but just dont want to be let down if something happens on our long drive down and we dont get to go.Maybe we will see you there.Good luck with your trip!!!!

OK here goes, I did this on another thread recently, and it seemed to work:

GIMME A "D" GIMME AN "I" GIMME AN "S" GIMME AN "N" GIMME AN "E" GIMME A "Y" WHAT DO YOU HAVE? DISNEY!!!!!

YAY DISNEY!!!!!

WHEW!!! (did that help?!!)

You'll feel better when you get there Much better

Just to be pendantic the words are:

In the tikki tikki tikkki tikki tikki room...
In the tikki tikki tikki tikki tikki room...
All the birds sing words and the flowers croon
In the tikki tikki tikki tikki tikki room!

I love that song.

To the OP. I have had the same feelings on occassion because while the trip is now only 3 days away, the end of the trip is now only 10 days away. Fortunately that has gone away as I am getting there.

i am leaving in 8 days (i think) and i can not get excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! everyone else is but ican't help but not feel that jolt of excitment! I get it when i watch videos of when i was there. that really helps me and it might work for you try it.

 

[Jenn Lynn]

I get that feeling until I am in the car on my way to the airport. I have to remind myself that I am going on VACATION! And then I get all excited.

 

[dgaston]

This happened to me on the April trip--I was worried I was actually "Disney'ed out." We drove, and somewhere about NC, listening to the music to IllumiNations the fever was back. Buy yourself some music. It WILL be fine.

4 days to go and we are ready.

 

[Connor&Cody'sMom]

You're probably just stressed out from all the things you have to do to get ready (packing, cleaning, worrying that's you'll forget something). I was up running around like a mad woman until 4 am the morning we left for Disney, getting everything ready. I got 2 1/2 hours of sleep. I was too overwhelmed to be exicted.
When you get there it will be all better, I promise.

I have that feeling, too. I am so excited to go, but am dreading hearing those words from work that I can't.

I work in a lab and a new person came about 8 months ago to "work" in the lab. Unfortunately, in the eight months, he has put in about 10 hours in the lab. Well....when I go on vacation, he will be required to work in there since there is only one other person and we are open 13 hours a day, seven days a week.

He has no intent on doing this, and I am waiting for the day when they tell me that there aren't enough people and then I am going to have to "drop a dime" on him. That will not go over well with the higher-ups and I will be blacklisted by my senior personnel. In the military , that is career suicide.

Oh well.....I work hard and deserve this vacation. Plus I am taking my kids and Mom because I am getting ready to deploy soon for at least six months so I can't disappoint my boys!

Wish me luck and keep me in you prayers....
