A story of renewed hope & the power of Dis

[Luvchefmic]

Keep those prayers good wishes coming I am faxing my resume this morning for this open application No indication of when interviews begin BUT I am confident that I can sell myself at one

Believe me I know all about the value of a government job, except for a handful of private sector ones I've held in my lifetime, the majority of my life I was as a civil servant

I don't allow myself to think of the pay/benefits that I left when we moved here No looking back though...onward

Wag your way over to Rockettower Plaza Stage in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom park, where you can dance along to the tunes of DJ K-9, right alongside popular Disney pups like Pluto, Bolt and Dug too.

I wasn't sure if you meant the one in Epcot or MK - we can do a meet up on Friday - we plan to be in Epcot that day. We arrive 2 days after my bd, but I plan on celebrating for the whole 10 days we are there! I figure I'm only going to turn 60 once, so I'm going to make it memorable!

I don't want to take lessons at the same place again - just not happy with the management of the farm - and my instructor got fed up and left too. I need to find a place close to home, thats not too expensive. one of my coworkers could give me lessons, but she lives more than an hour from me so that's not really going to work, since I would have to go after work. I haven't given up though.

Re- first meet up...my way of saying certainly open to more ..Fri Sat Sun absolutely NO plans so pretty much open to your (& Charlie's) schedule You said the breakdown of plans will be on your thread tonight so I'll check there...more later re-your horse riding experience & maybe a suggestion

Ruthie,
That is so cool about the magic bands. What do they do?
ETA: OMG, I posted this from my phone and accidentally added a down thumby thing! I removed it when I saw it from my computer. I hope you didn't get the wrong idea!

I DID first see it before you edited it I thought to myself why is she unhappy about my getting a magic band ? then I figured it was a mistake and chalked it up to laptop, IPad, or phone...no worries as far as the question " What do they do ?" Supposedly let you " plan" better ...we'll see I sit on the fence and could either way with my opinion

Good luck on the job! I ordered the same color magicband!

And WHERE is your ticker ???? Don't you know it is the Law around here ??
where are you staying when are you going unless you rather not say of course

 

[Luvchefmic]

Iamqueen, yay on that lively word benign!

Ruthie, we had a wonderful encounter with Pluto today. But he shook his head when I asked if he knew Ruthie in security.
Am exhausted, and tough for me to post off phone. Will talk to you soon!!

You ARE exhausted and should not post from your phone as you are getting all mixed up so I will fix it all for you YES the word benign is LOVELY but that was for Ariana Pluto0809 and the results are for Eddie her 12 year old dog not Tess IamtheQueen Magic Band for me why Pluto yellow of course and Pluto wasn't asked if he knows Trudy in Security ? I am sorry all these Plutos are causing confusion it could be worse....You're at Disney World !! and I am thrilled that you took the time to post here and never even touched your own thread TTY soon

Met Dee (Deesknee) DH Mark and DD little one Morgan VERY briefly the day they flew in last week but today was the actual DisMeet to spend time together



So wonderful when people get to meet on Dis, then take it to email, then phone calls, and when meet in real life the bond you started is deepened I LOVE them
Dee so funny and warm Mark a dry sarcastic wit like me and oh their DD little one I could just eat this little munchkin 10 y/o and polite, interesting , intelligent, and still that child like charm Bravo parents excellent job !
Next time have to really meet the rest of the family

So here we are at DHS Monster U Bash ! Only regret by all, not enough time together That's ok guys I'll be here and that's what APs are for

here we are with entertainment CM Bianca of the Monsters U Bash Team
that girl is so tall I look like I am standing in a hole Dee got to be the megaphone cheerleader ! and of course Mark was the leader with the sign ( he does a heck of a Roz interpretation by the way even with a MA accent ) and sweet Morgan with her Mike glasses



and then we were joined by some friends ! Love these CMs and the fun we had together ! I will definitely be sending a note to WDW as these CMs were absolutely magical ! This was NOT an official
photo spot and they made it happen just by a friendly inquiry Next thing you know we are surrounded
by Fear Leaders and handed props! Kudos to the CM that used my camera & took these pictures too Great Job ! Maybe those Mike Glasses were filled with magic for Morgan



Have to include a picture of Sulley Boy he's BIG !


tried to get a picture of Mike but he is so short and I am not exactly tall so trying to see over the crowd all I could see was his hands waving didn't even bother with a picture

We went to One Mans Dream I always cringe when in there and see things I OWNED as a kid from the 1960's oh to still own them



we had a great, but too short, time,as they had to go on to another surprise plan for DD little ones birthday but I will leave that for Dee posting on her thread

 

[PrincessInOz]

YAY! What a great DisMeet.

 

[Restrasz]

Looks like you had a great time!
