A Salute to Food & Wine but Mostly Wine..12/21 FINAL THOUGHTS...a Solo Trip Adventure

[2xcited2sleep]

Woo hoo!!!

You are so close!!!

Your trip is coming quick!

I know! I can't believe it is almost here. When I pulled out the paperwork earlier today I saw that I got my confirmation # back in January so it has definitely been a long time coming! That's also when I joined the DIS and am so glad that I've met so many great people here!

18 days! You lucky thing!!

I know! Can't believe it. It doesn't quite feel real. But December will be soon behind it. I hope you and Chuck are still planning on Mousefest? I'm looking forward to meeting you!

 

[ILuvCrush]

Look its the I'm paid in full happy dance!!!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Please pardon me... I am beyond giddy

16 days!

That's almost 2 weeks, people!!

 

[Lady Lallie]

16 days -- wow! How soon after you return can we expect the trip report?

 

[askelton]

whoohooty!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

2 weeks from now.... I will be in WDW!!!!



I am amazed at how quickly I have moved from "made my ADR's it's six months out and there's nothing left to do" all the way to "holy cow there's two weeks to go and there's SO MUCH to do I'm not sure I can do it all!"

My purchases are rolling in. New crocs, new sneaks, new Vera back pack. I really should learn to factor in these "necessary purchases" when I'm budgeting my vacation!

 

[ILuvCrush]

I know how you're feeling there girlfriend!!

I keep thinking "I'm not even there yet....what happened to all my shopping money"

I ended up with new crocs, sneaks, 2 veras...oh wait...3 veras (because the 1st one I bought I decided wouldn't work after all ), 2 new halloween shirts, and who knows what else

Thank goodness for fuzzy disney math!!!!

2 weeks ago I was thinking OMG I've got so much to do now.... here it is 3 days b4 I leave home... and I STILL have a million things to do!!

Well, like my DS's t-shirts says.....

"Procrastinators Unite! Tomarrow!!!"

What do you think of the Vera backpack? I was at Kohl's tonight exchanging some stuff and saw a woman with one -- I couldn't help but think it looked really small and I wondered if it would fit all my stuff. Since she was a total stranger, I resisted the urge to ask her if I could see it and see how big it was on the inside.

 

[Lady Lallie]

What kind of Crocs did you get?

CP --- They have two different sizes of VB Backpacks. I really want to test them out.

 

[askelton]

Two weeks!

We are still planning to go!! I am ready to go now!

I just looked at my ticker! Exactly two months!!

whoohooty!

This is the eve of the single digit dance! I can't believe it!! In terms of when the TR will start. Not sure. I MAY post a few things live (we'll see - technologically savvy I am not) but otherwise I imagine I'm going to be very anxious to share everything with all of you who have been alongside me anticipating this trip for what feels like forever!

Paula - you're there now as we speak and I hope you're having an AMAZING time! I need that procrastinators t-shirt!!

I like the Vera back pack. I think I have the smaller of the two. But remember that it's only me I have to carry things for. And I travel fairly light at the parks. Tickets, chapstick, $ and camera. That's about it.

What kind of Crocs did you get?

CP --- They have two different sizes of VB Backpacks. I really want to test them out.

I was trying to get the kind you recommended but could only find the cleo so that's what I picked up. And have some of the traditional crocs from Disneyland with the mickey head shaped holes.

Two weeks!

You know it! I can't wait!

We are still planning to go!! I am ready to go now!

I just looked at my ticker! Exactly two months!!

Dec in WDW is going to be so awesome. And I can't wait to meet you guys!

 

[nts4wdw]

10 days !! Almost nine really!!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

I can't believe it. I've been planning this darn trip since January. And as of tomorrow I will be single digit dancing!

I've made another preemptive ADR. At Raglan Road for my Downtown Disney night. BTW I just learned that you can make your RR reservations online via opentable.com vs. going through Disney which is exactly what I did. So easy. No issues getting a table a little more than a week in advance for Saturday night!

I think I'm in a bit of denial. So much to get done at work. So much at home. I have to cash in my change bucket for spending $. I had wanted to do iron on shirts. I have to set up my cameras on my new laptop. I have to pack. I wanted to order some bottled water since I drink it like it's going out of style. Anyone else done this? From where do you order?? So much to do!!!

But I'm going to WDW! In 10- almost 9- days!!!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

10 days !! Almost nine really!!

My thinking exactly! It's ALL about countdowns for me at this point. 7 more work days. 10 more sleeps. 1 more episode of Brothers & Sisters (love that show!) Everything I think of is in the context of how it relates to Disney! Is that normal?

Yay for 2 weeks (ok less than 2 weeks now!)! That is so exciting! I love the dance party smiley thingy.

Ohhhh a new Vera backpack! I want to see! I am slightly addicted to that stuff... In fact I think I need to buy a new one for our trip...haha

Ooooh so so close!

I ordered my water from Staples and it was delivered to my resort.
