A trip to WDW w/NO kids? Hubba Hubba! Wink Wink! UPDATE: EXTRA, EXTRA!!! Pg 158

I tipped mousekeeping when we stayed at POR in January, but still never got more towel animals than were there when we arrived. I don't know if you have to take them apart for them to make new ones or what.:confused3 I guess sometimes they just don't have time to make them, whether you tip them or not.

Me too. We always tip each day but rarely get more than the initial towel animal...maybe b/c they could tell it was only DH and I in the past.
 
that was just too funny...love it so much! Thank you! :hug:

you're very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it :goodvibes :hug:

I never realized no one guessed...guess I just forgot about it! But that's cool about your sister! Does she also pronounce it like me?...like cooking "sherry" (I never did specify here but now I must go into a tangent: I figured since my nickname is Cher-bear you would pronounce that -Cher(like the singer)-Bear...so people would figure out that my name is "cher-ee" w/ emphasis on the Cher, and not "Shuh-Ree" with emphasis on the Ree. Please tell me that made sense :confused3 )

So back to your sister...it's really cool that her husband's name is Mike too!
If I ever have any engraved items I want to get rid of I know who to send them too...:rotfl2:


I've always pronounced your name right! Do I get a prize!!?? :laughing:
 
I'm gonna be going sleepy sleep soon so I'm gonna go ahead and say night night and bye bye!! I can't wait to see you Cheri!! I hope you and Mike have a safe flight on Saturday :goodvibes :thumbsup2 Only 2 days left for you!!! :woohoo:

I will holler at you later chicka!! :hug: SEE YOU SOOOONNNNN!!!!
 
Just read through your report, and hope you have a wonderful time, despite being on the mend from being sick. Once you are in Disney, though, you'll be :cloud9: , and be thinking, "what cold?" :rotfl: I thought I would share a pic of my daughter during our trip in April, just look at that smile, and just think, that will be you in a few days!

Lots of get-well pixie dust and regular, old-fashioned pixie dust!

Oh I didn't read it that way...you really didn't have to explain yourself. I know what you mean. But thank you again!!!

hehe

Yeah, I knew I didn't have to explain it, but the way I worded it just struck me as funny when I read it the second time. :)
 

You poor thing...oh the horror....Being told you can't go to Disney...& then that you are nuts for leaving Houskeeping a Tip!!!

I should think after all the effort you have put into this trip Everyone...would be bowing down to your feet...& cleaning them No less...

Welll hey you have some good News...you lost 3 lbs...worked for me too... I lost 7 lbs...while I was Sick...& gained it all back last week!!!

oh well that is the Way the Ball bounces!!!
\\


:lmao:

yeah I agree he should be :worship:

I am glad you're all better! And yes, well, I saw all the descriptions of the food you ate! :rotfl2:

Welcome Back Cheri..Glad you are starting to feel better..

Tipping mousekeeping is great idea....silly dad....and mike...

They are like waiters and waitresses.....they don't get paid a lot and they have families, too and depend on those tips...You go girl:cool1:

I actually thought they got paid pretty well at Disney...but I only recently heard about the tipping thing. My family never has in the past (obviously).

I know! It's better now! Thank goodness!


Yes, that made perfect sense and yes, she pronounces it the same as you.


Funny right there!!! :lmao:

I am glad I made sense! That's cool that she pronounces it the same way! Most people say I am "pronouncing it wrong" and I say "Go talk to my mother, then. She named me." I knew 2 other Cheri's in the past and one pronounced it my way, the other "Shuh-ree"

Sooo glad you are feeling a bit better!
We missed you! :goodvibes

thank you! :goodvibes

Sounds to me like you got quite a bit done!

I tipped mousekeeping when we stayed at POR in January, but still never got more towel animals than were there when we arrived. I don't know if you have to take them apart for them to make new ones or what.:confused3 I guess sometimes they just don't have time to make them, whether you tip them or not.

:woohoo: for 3 pounds...even though you don't look to me like you need to lose it. I've lost 20 since my initial bout with sickness in May, but I can't tell that I've lost it. I'll probably gain it all back over the next week though.:eek: Hopefully all the walking will be helpful in keeping that from happening!

I did get a lot done but not enough! I have SO much to do tonight, especially after last night. (Ok...I feel a tangent coming! But I'm going to wait til a separate post to tell the story...I feel I MUST vent!)

I really want some towel animals. I actually have NEVER received any in all my years. And I've been seeing all these pictures of people arriving to see towel Mickey's....and I'm thinking "did they just start doing this recently?"

The walking probably will help a lot! :thumbsup2 Last year I lost 5 pounds! And only ate quick service (bad, bad, burgers and fried chicken!)

Me too. We always tip each day but rarely get more than the initial towel animal...maybe b/c they could tell it was only DH and I in the past.

well it's just DH and I too :guilty:
 
you're very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it :hug:

I've always pronounced your name right! Do I get a prize!!?? :laughing:

I had hoped so! ;)

I'm gonna be going sleepy sleep soon so I'm gonna go ahead and say night night and bye bye!! I can't wait to see you Cheri!! I hope you and Mike have a safe flight on Saturday :thumbsup2 Only 2 days left for you!!! :woohoo:

I will holler at you later chicka!! :hug: SEE YOU SOOOONNNNN!!!!

I am so mad I missed you! My little story of last night's escapades will tell why.

Just read through your report, and hope you have a wonderful time, despite being on the mend from being sick. Once you are in Disney, though, you'll be :cloud9: , and be thinking, "what cold?" :rotfl: I thought I would share a pic of my daughter during our trip in April, just look at that smile, and just think, that will be you in a few days!

Disneytrip034.jpg

thank you! and WELCOME!! Your daughter is precious!

I only WISH it were a cold. My stomach was attacking me or something. (same issues I had that I went into the hosp. for) But I have been improving every day this week! :thumbsup2

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE GET BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!

So excited for you! Only 2 days!!!!!!!! Please keep on the lookout for me. We will be wearing our ears and buttons and generally anything that will garner us attention lol. Have a safe trip and hopefully we'll see you there!!

I am here for the trip report!:thumbsup2 Thanks for the welcome!:woohoo:

I missed likea half of page of posts the other day on here...my bad..:rotfl:

Mine is a pre trip report that is SUPER DUPER EARLY:rotfl2:

I will be over to yours in a bit too:cool1: :cool1:
 
:rotfl: NICE shameless plug Sharky. you are the plug master!! (:lmao: I could get so wrong with that...but I will keep this DIS friendly...don't want to get baned :scared1: :rotfl: )

I missed this one,too..Gosh...I am slacking:rotfl2:


I love it....:lmao:
 
Okay, so yesterday after work, I went to the chiroquacker, and my reg. dr. is on vacation so I had to see the other guy he just hired on, and first he made me wait like 30 minutes, then (mind you, I'm not hurting anymore...they just won't release me) he made my neck hurt! How much sense does that make...I go in feeling fine, I come out hurting?! :mad: To continue the story, I finally make it to the tanning bed just before 6:30, home by 7, and Mike decides we really need to return the blockbuster movie and he wants to exchange a bike helmet he got the other day at Walmart to a different color, then pick up something to eat and come home to pack and get what I need to get done. I am thinking "I have so much crap to do, and it looks like it's about to pour, but Okay, I can handle this and I'll get back in an hour to do what I need to do. So we are pulling out of the driveway, it starts pouring....and (we have a 70 foot long driveway) there's a car coming towards us looking like it's going to pull into our driveway...we can't PULL out of our driveway at this point because it's my cousin and our friend (who we haven't seen in a while---these are the ones that kicked my other friend out and she had to sleep at our house...hopefully that rings a bell). I am thinking "You have GOT to be KIDDING me!" So we have to back up towards the house. It's pouring at this point, and Mike can't back up all the way to the carport because our friends are blocking us. I still have bronzer from the tanning bed all over me, and I know if I get out in the rain the stuff will be dripping off of me...ewww. So he gets out and goes to talk to them under the carport...and I wait, and wait, and wait, and WAIT. I'm getting really annoyed at this point because I KNOW I have SO much to do because I was sick and had to put it off. What felt like 20 minutes passed and Mike finally comes back to the car and says we're going to eat at Tommys (a local pizza place). First of all, I'm thinking of all I have to get done, and that's pretty much out the window; Secondly, I am thinking that red sauce is not the best thing for my stomach right now while trying to get over these stomach issues; Thirdly, I'm dressed like a bum! Mike says that we have to go as a thank you thing for them watching the dogs....I'm thinking, Wouldn't that be afterward? :confused3 I just know I am stuck at this point. And trying not to stress out. Luckily it wasn't raining when we arrived at Tommy's. But the food took FOREVER, I ordered lasagna (and managed to eat some of it without getting sick) and she overcharged us on the bill. Then she says she can't find a manager so to just take the $3.00 out of her tip money....so we're thinking we can't stiff her, so we wait. It was only about 5 minutes (thankfully!) til the manager came and brought us the corrected bill. We paid it and got the heck out of there. And I didn't get home until almost 10:00!! Did I mention that's usually my bedtime? And that I NEVER eat past 9:00?! I still had to take a bath, and Mike was dead tired, so no umm....:rolleyes1 ...either.
Mike tried to make me feel better by saying HE could get all the stuff done....I said..You can't paint my nails. You can't shave my legs. You can't pack my bag....heck you can't even pack YOUR bag. You won't/can't make my LGMH's. You don't reallly know what's going on and didn't care up til this point as long as you made it to Disney...and NOW you want to offer assistance? "Just let me do it" :rotfl2: (Did I mention he also couldn't give me the time back so that I could say goodbye to Leger? :sad2: At least I will see her in 5 days! :thumbsup2 )
Let's see..what else. I still have laundry folded on the couch, the trashcan is still outside (we had an ant attack and we were supposed to clean it out and bring it in last night), and the dogs nails aren't clipped.
I am seriously a little nervous about getting everything done in time. I don't think Mike understood how much I really needed that time last night to do everything. Just pray I get everything done!!

Did that make anyone's brain hurt? Sorry if it did!

Maybe this will help...

Happy dance! 2 days!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't get anything done last night either!

Let's have a "We're-Going-Disney-And-We-Didn't-Get-Anything-Done-Last-Night!" PARTY!!!!!

This guy didn't get anything done, except pick up his suit!:

:dancer:

These guys totally didn't get anything done, except drink some 7UP:

party:

These guys had WAY too much sugar:

:jumping1:

These guys are just CRAZY:

:dance3:

This guy is part of an internet craze:

:banana:

And these guys are all our friends!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:ccat: :simba: :donald: :stitch: :dumbo: :sulley: :tigger: :figment: :goofy: :mickeyjum
 
OMG... I am exhausted just from reading that!!! :laughing:

I hope you did at least have a good time out to eat in spite of all the misshaps. I cannot remember the last time my DH and I ate a meal w/o our kids.... probably Christmas time. Sad, huh? :rolleyes:

Anyway... just wanted to tell you that everything that really needs to get done will get done! No worries! Besides Friday night you'll be "too excited to sleep!" so you'll get all that last minute stuff done while you wait for morning to come! Heck, maybe you'll even have time for :rolleyes1 ! ;)

:goodvibes

I feel your pain....We rarely get to go out to eat withour our ds....I love him of course, as you do your kids, but to eat in peace would be nice:goodvibes

We have a wedding to go to next month and am looking forward to nite alone with hubby, good food and good drink:cool1:
 
Oh, sorry, thought you just had a cold! Stomach trouble is the worst!!!:scared:

I really don't think a lot of men realize how much pre-trip stuff there is to be done. Or they do, and just don't stress as much! LOL My DH never realizes the stuff to get ready to go---he just shows up and says "Let's go! Aren't you ready? You've had X number of days to prepare"....:headache: By now, he knows to leave me be, let me have my pre-trip hissy fit, and stand clear!:rotfl: :rotfl:

You'll get your stuff done, and if not, you could get your nails done at the BBB! :laughing:
