Hello to all RC peeps!! Life's been a bit hectic and challenging lately - missed you all!!
A Magical RECAP
Plenty of Magic …..Our sweet Lilyanna is back to her feisty ways and received a great check up from the Doc!! Now the question is… does he make house calls??? Here’s hoping Danimal’s pesky bug is zapped quickly!
Whew … quite a scare for Iheart the mouse DS!! Plenty of hugs all around for a speedy recovery! Keeping Bree in our hearts and prayers as well!
JC... thanks for working your number magic and thanks to JC and M&N for providing a Mickey ear!
Wishes DO come true … just ask LUV!!: it's going to be magical beginnings for Luv and her DH with their dream move to Orlando! Luv, with all those great Florida Discounts will CL be your home away from home?? AND, now that Luv will be so tantalizing close to our favorite mouse house …. It gives new meaning to staying offsite!!
(Luv will you have a bookable category up and running soon?) RCers will need your new direct line!
Hannah: Those wishes upon the star paid off and our Hannah is planning, drawing and sketching her trip details, currently staying at AOA in the LM rooms in January… Maybe with a RC DISmeet in the making too!
A Thumbs (or Pinky) up to MM and Pas … For those of you who might remember, long, long ago in a galaxy far away …. [okay been watching star wars] Pas and MM had a pinky swear that they would NOT be making any changes to their May & July trips …. And needless to say both should be without their pinkies … good thing our RC Queen is a nurse by night …and a stitch
or two : was all that was needed.
Pas: For a Pas Recap (really she needs her own!)….speculation was rapid fire that after countless RCs the Queen would not stay at the POP, however, the faith of this POPper knew she would feel the vibe and crash at the Pas POP Pad … and a POPer was born out of that love fest!
Of course staying on Disney property meant a BB was in order … and she’s been bouncing off resorts every since!! Let’s see, POP, ASMU, CR CL, WL CL, Poly CL, BC CL … really anything CL will do!
BUT…..now she’s done the ultimate!! She’s gone from POP to the TOP!! RPC King room!
Mousemommy: Queen of the generic tickers, which have served our MM well …. It’s been a roller coaster adventure the last 4 months with WL CL winning out (with plenty of waffling thrown in)!! No more Mickey Waffling for this mouse mommy and she’s off to see the mouse in less than 4 days!! Also in the works …. An October girls weekend? … possible birthday celebration for DD8? … oh, and the April ‘13 trip too … Royal rooms, AKL, AOA??? Oh, APs are so tempting, as Padawans knows so well …
Padawans: Well, this Padawans is no one’s apprentice when it comes to RCing.. .really she’s achieved master status …. Between waffling between Oct and December trips, with a cruise thrown in, to AP or not …. Remember … never underestimate the RC power!
Dani: This girl NEEDS her POLY punch!! Bring on August!! She settled on her dream POLY … really it could be no other …. And a DISmeet with her NJ “sista” … and our own Magic spreading her own Magic .... really, can it get any better than this?
Jungle Cruiser: It was a sweet stay at her beloved SL in April; now this GFaholic is setting sail in September to the BC, deluxe style for some much needed R&R (with DH waiting on her hand and foot …. We’ve seen first hand how our JC can sweet talk her DH into anything!). Lounging in a chair allows plenty of time for planning DISmeets with our Jenny and Miss. She could get firmly attached to those hammocks (just following the doctor’s orders!) and might add on another Disney Day or two for more DISmeets ….
Grumpy Grandma [and the three bears] ….. she’s been hiding out in the woods holed up in her cabin with her furbaby and just the “bear” necessities …. internet, cell phone, TV …ummm, porridge? Our West Coast Mama Bear really never goes into hibernation, with Tahoe and Malibu AND she’ll be heading east in October (with a layover in Chicago) before hitting the Boardwalk, OKW, and the lodges tour … well, you know our GG loves her animal friends!!
Pixarmom: A return sighting from this RCer (well she’s been busy promoting BRAVE) Next UP she’s setting her sails for the Disney wonder in August and then on to story board planning for that Incredible split trip for 2013 … POLY, GF, BWI, CR and BC. This RCer is mightly brave …. BTW, are your DS’ named Hamish, Hubert and Harris???
x 3! keeps us in mind for the premiere of Monsters Universary!!
Chimo2u: Our sweet Marie has been steadfast and true on sticking with the POLY after giving up the BC Deluxe Room (oh JC can give you the goods on that!). Hoping to meet up with other RCers and is sooo ready to for a bit of trickery at MNSSHP!! Don’t worry about the POLY crowds Marie, remember just keep swimming ….
Amanda: Set to take in the 5K and Dh the ToT marathon, our Amanda is settled in at OKW .... with dreams of a MNSSHP and a DISmeet with our own Marie ...
Magic: Magic celebrated a magical anniversary in March and received an extra gift of a DISmeet with our own Sheila … in August she’s getting her POLY fix, Sept is all about celebrations with family …. Perhaps a post mini thanksgiving mini trip and then the December trips …. Magic, you are the Queen of the BB!!
KooK: Sprung for a Spring break this year at BWI CL and WL CL (what else?
). Actually considered stepping outside the WL box, had our Kook on the Route 66 bypass to check out the Cozy Cone, but it turned out to be a quick pit stop, enroute to the beautiful AKV .. and all fabulous room .. and 2 bathrooms at Kidani!!! [Yes, understand completely that bare necessity Kook!] No DISmeet on the bridge for Kook and Janet B, but the King will still reign supreme at the RC meet!
Heather: More magical dreams coming true …. A stay at AKL CL and then it was a dream of a lifetime cruise, with 3 generations of family and a special anniversary! Looking ahead to March '13 and bunking down at the cabins at Fort. Wilderness ...for now ....
Sheila: it’s been a dream to stay at WDW during the Christmas season, so Santa is delivering his presents early … Sheila’s returning to the BWI for some magical Christmas Cheer!
MissOutandAbout: She’s been planning on getting OUT and ABOUT to Disney in September … But right now Life’s a Beach ….something’s up with her British DH status .....Miss, can DH fit in those excellent Packing Cubes of yours?? (Better yet, put the INS in the packing cubes!!) January brings AoA … NOT AKL, (we are not supposed to ever mention that to Miss). She’s considering boarding the Hogwarts Express too … go ahead, take the forbidden journey… it will leave you spell bound!!
Doing the Stormalong Bay Stomp and getting a little goofy is our Gwynne (YC) and Basket Lacey (BC) (only not at the same time unforunately) ...darn!
It’s the 1-2 POLY punch for for our Jenny and I_heart_the_mouse: Really it’s a POLY-palooza!! Jenny's 2013 plans include SWW and the Disney Dream in December .... land resort??? POR? or possible DVC rental. Time will tell ....
Getting back in Step with her RCing ways is StepDisney .... August bring on the YC and SAB!!! A MUCH needed respite for our Step!
Fantasia .... we WILL meet up some day!! Happy that your trip is just encountering a small bump in the road ....look for a package soon!!
And then there were “5” …. The idea for a RC trip took flight last year with and has some unscheduled stops, layovers, date changes, and departures for some …. But currently buckling their seat belts for January are Magic, GG, Minnie&Nana, JC and Janet B (with her prescription meds
). What’s an RC trip without some RCs??? WL CL, to WL, to the POLY GV, then now taking in the nightlife at the Boardwalk. Hmmm best to hold off too much celebrating until the Fab 5 complete the 5K!!!
Where in the World is.... Kaffinito?? Wookie? A BIG hello to all our newest RCers!!
Well, since the last recap, it’s been a constant flow of changes for many of our RCers … We have celebrated the end of another school year and our kiddos excellence … celebrated our in our nation’s independence,
for the Red, white & Blue (oh, except when you are seeing these in your rear view mirror
) … celebrated our hometown heros, being paid in full, our most recent trips, family gatherings and weddings, new jobs, qualifying for medicare …. Celebrations are also measured in small mouse steps …. weight loss changes, and the many physical or mental challenges that our RC family cope with every day. There is nothing too big or too small (or too frivolous Jenny) that can’t be shared here … sometimes the simplest and zaniest chatter helps lighten the load and can bring about positive change. It’s true that when life hands you lemons, make the best of it….throw in plenty of ice and vodka, mix well and share with good friends … bottoms up!
Love to all,
P.S. This RCer is POPin’ back 8/19-8/25

But I'm not gonna go there yet. I didn't even price out September and check on changing our flights. OK, I did but so would anyone else. 
Janet 
parith1114 Glad you found us! If you have time, do read Janet's recap and you'll be all caught up with our thread...for about 5 min. 
We move along faster than light rail sometimes!
(Her coat is closest to an Alsatian / German Shepard, I think, with that soft undercoat... which sheds all in one go! 
How lame is that?
