A rabbi, a priest, and a pastor board the Wonder: we're back!

Gabby had to go to the Instacare today while at camp in CO. All it was was an infected ingrown toenail but camp didn't have the numbing shots. I was wracking my brain thinking: who lives in CO that I can call when I first got the call. I was freaking out a little. They ended up not cutting it out but giving her an antibiotic.

​

I'm in Colorado...you could call me.

Awesome!

Its so exciting! I think I'll be paid in full this weekend. I'll also change to late seating. ​

I know I know, money is just always in the back of my mind. Thank you it's going to be a fantastic trip!

I hear ya! The cost is always looming. If it weren't, I'd have thousands of DVC points. ​

I love it! Most of my friends have kids and they'll act like psychopaths while my friends just smile and ignore it, or worse comment on how amazing their children are. It amuses me greatly.

There is nothing worse than some else's I'll behaved kids and parents who either look the other way or make excuses for it. Mine have definitely had their share of moments.​

Yes, and they really are amazing. I love when they have the lights dance to the transiberian orchestra. It gives me goosebumps just thinking about it.

It sounds amazing and all of the photos are memorizing. I cannot even imagine how spectacular it is in person. You'll be right in the action this year at the VGF!​

The same, no need for a big one. Looks like Hertz is the closest to the port. Right now I can only get an estimate for $160, hopefully it will go down.

I think it's more when you pick up and drop off at different locations. I priced them out for Las Vegas this Thanksgiving and gone are the days of $11 rentals.​

Have you decided what you'll do post cruise?

No and I need to. I don't see the harm in staying a couple nights however I have to borrow to make the reservation so I have to be sure.​

I almost Facebooked you just in case. I got the call saying mom, I'm on my way to Instacare and I about flipped. I did realize though she was speaking and calm so I calmed down.

Thank you for the offer. It's very sweet and reassuring. ​

Anytime. Glad it was something minor. PM and I'll give you my cell phone # just in case.

I find that to be true too. Unfortunately I'll be over ALL weekend. We've got a crazy fun weekend planned but that means food and drink!​

I hear you. After running 3.14 miles tonight (yes darn it I count the .14 lol) miles in 86 degrees all bets were off! All I wanted was to jump in the lake, eat pizza and enjoy my wine. So I did. LOL!. I really shouldn't have had that third piece of pizza. LOL!

Interesting though, for the first time I compared calorie burn on myfitnesspal to what runkeeper says. I like the number myfitness pal came up with much better (280 versus 453!). MFP says I can have a little bit of licorice still. LOL! We will be at the lake all weekend so similar issues but hope to work out each day to semi balance it out.

My MIL, who rocks and one of my dearest friends in the world are also there and would do anything at the drop of a hat to help. Poor Gabby and OW!

LOL! Heck yeah, I count everything after the point! Sounds like a great night!

I'm up at 6 am. It's set to be 102* today so I'm heading out soon for my walk/jog/run. Wish me luck! Thank you for the insights and motivation and your abs in that yellow bikini. I know I'll be eating and drinking all day today.​

Have a great weekend on the water! My favorite place to be in the summer!

I like MFP, not sure on how totally accurate some of the foods are but I tend to choose on the high side if there's a huge discrepancy.​

Thank you my friend. I'm hoping the Augmentin will help. I also told her to keep it clean which is almost impossible.


Jill, your PM box is full. ​

​

Glad they didn't have to cut it. She'd have to be more careful at camp than would be convenient.

I hope it feels better soon!

 

[Pinkocto]

Its so exciting! I think I'll be paid in full this weekend. I'll also change to late seating. ​

Awesome I still have a bit more, I let it get close to the pay in full date, because if the prices drop you can't rebook without penalty if its paid in full already.

I hear ya! The cost is always looming. If it weren't, I'd have thousands of DVC points. ​

Me too! I'm satisfied for the moment, hopefully I don't want more anytime soon

It sounds amazing and all of the photos are memorizing. I cannot even imagine how spectacular it is in person. You'll be right in the action this year at the VGF!​

The only thing is they have the music pretty loud. Mom doesn't like to stay too long because of the noise, but it is amazing!

I think it's more when you pick up and drop off at different locations. I priced them out for Las Vegas this Thanksgiving and gone are the days of $11 rentals.​

You must be right. My week in California is $150, and the 3 days in FL is $160. I'll keep checking prices though. I almost thought about flying up to MCO and grabbing DME but by the time I sat in the airport I'd probably already be there.

No and I need to. I don't see the harm in staying a couple nights however I have to borrow to make the reservation so I have to be sure.​

Ahhh, that is something to consider. What does Joshua want to do?

 

[rentayenta]

Thats a really good point and makes me feel better for sure. Initially I was hoping they'd cut it but you're so right. Camp is also dirty as in its in the mountains. ​

Awesome I still have a bit more, I let it get close to the pay in full date, because if the prices drop you can't rebook without penalty if its paid in full already.

So once it's PIF, there's not way to get the lower price if it drops? Okay, nevermind not paying in full today. I had no idea that would be an issue. I'm waiting too. I bet there's so much more I don't know.​

Me too! I'm satisfied for the moment, hopefully I don't want more anytime soon

With your new VGF treat, ow may points do you and have an where?​

I can see how that would be an issue.​

Yeah using different locations for pick up and drop is a killer to the price. I don't think I'd fly, you're right. You could get there in the time it'd take to fly and wait at the airport. Plus after the cruise you can just hop in your car and go! ​

Ahhh, that is something to consider. What does Joshua want to do?

He doesn't want to miss anymore school but of course he wants to go to WDW even if its just for resort time. He wants to stay at the BWV, AKV, or OKW. We'll see, I'm so undecided. Trying to weigh out the cost of the car etc....We'd get a Studio for sure. I'm so in the red. ​

102 yuck! 82-85 here this weekend so it's gym today which is normal but we will run in the am tomorrow witch is not. It's supposed to be my sleep in day! Oh well.

Actually tried to work on those non existent abs on thurs as we did an extra workout day this week and.. Ow. Lol!

 

[eandesmom]

Oh and ita, don't pay in fill till due date (almost though!) in case it drops

 

[franandaj]

Good to know that Gabby is safe. I freak out easily when I think there is trouble.

You ladies are wearing me out with all this talk of running! I walked briskly last night which got me another glass of wine last night but I probably shouldn't have had the piece of tres leches cake! I'm going to regret when I type in my intake for yesterday!

Yay for walking!

 

[franandaj]

Since you gals clued me into the myfitnesspal.com website I am definitely monitoring my food (and wine) a little better. I also found that I burn a lot of calories. I didn't know things like moving boxes (which I do constantly) count as cardio, plus cleaning, even light duty. It's amazing how many calories I have actually burned over the last few days!

Yes I even put 5 minutes of climbing stairs since I went up and down them at least 5-6 times today.

 

[Pinkocto]

Thats a really good point and makes me feel better for sure. Initially I was hoping they'd cut it but you're so right. Camp is also dirty as in its in the mountains. ​

Not a fun thing to deal with, especially someplace where you're active and around lots of dirt. and she probably couldn't swim for a few weeks if they cut it. I hope it clears up soon.

So once it's PIF, there's not way to get the lower price if it drops? Okay, nevermind not paying in full today. I had no idea that would be an issue. I'm waiting too. I bet there's so much more I don't know.​

That's my understanding. I could be wrong though, but I don't want to take any chances.

With your new VGF treat, ow may points do you and have an where?​

570 total, 240 at Aulani, 280 at AKV, and 50 at VGF. No regrets in the least, I'll be able to use this my entire life. Guaranteed vacations is a wonderful feeling.

Yeah using different locations for pick up and drop is a killer to the price. I don't think I'd fly, you're right. You could get there in the time it'd take to fly and wait at the airport. Plus after the cruise you can just hop in your car and go! ​

I totally agree, it'll be nice to just get up there. You and Joshua are more than welcome to drive with me if you're heading up to WDW. I know you might want your own car but just wanted to offer. I promise I'm not trying to take over your vacation.

He doesn't want to miss anymore school but of course he wants to go to WDW even if its just for resort time. He wants to stay at the BWV, AKV, or OKW. We'll see, I'm so undecided. Trying to weigh out the cost of the car etc....We'd get a Studio for sure. I'm so in the red. ​

Ahhh, that is understandable. January is a low time so I'm sure things won't book up quickly. Lots of time to decide.

 

[rentayenta]

I had a nice well thought out post and reply to everyone and my iPad flashed. I'll be back tomorrow, crazy weekend.


But before I go, look what I got you today Pam:

I got a Daisy one for me and a Mickey one for Joshua. They were $1 at Blockbuster. I got a few extra for FE gifts if our cruise has one. Guess I shouldn't post them in case any fellow cruisers are lurking. ​

 

[Pinkocto]

I love it! They've shut down most of our Blockbusters, we used to rent movies all the time.

They were bought out here, went through some major pains, and seem to be doing ok. Redbox has made it so they've had to lower their prices which is great for me.

Okay, trying to repost what I had yesterday. I'm on my phone now. My iPad is giving me grief.​

 

[rentayenta]

Okay so every time I try to multi quote my iPad acts up. No clue what's going on.....

Cynthia, I took your info and didn't pay in full. On the rare chance our price will drop, I'd hate to miss any refund.


Alison, it's so good to see you on MyFitness Pal. I track my food even when I'm way over. It's crazy how much you move more than you thought.

It really helps me not open that mini bag of chips etc....


Mary Ellen, how was your first day?


Pam,

199 days!!!


We're in the hundreds girl!! I just about booked the VWL right now for the two days after the cruise. I just can't decide. I know we won't be able to not do MK. Argh!! I'm looking into the price of one day tickets. Or two day tickets. Non hoppers. I asked Joshua what two parks he'd want; a half day at one and a full day at the other and he chose DHS and MK. We'd do Friday night at DHS and all Saturday at MK.​
