As the Ticker Turns~The next chapter of the Resort Changers Saga...*RC trips pg.238

[padawans]

Thanks Marie Hope Christine gets back to us soon....the DIS is insane lately
I think my plan to keep Sheila cool in RPC with HRH (who also dislikes the heat=being the princess se is...) is a good one, no??? No one was surprised I overslept, plus I bought coffee & donuts to make up for my tardiness (and lack of shower)

I agree with Reid ....it IS the Disney song

I need to stop these rotating shifts....at least i know I am off May 23rd....cause we are driving to Florida

Thanks for the link Deena

I am proud of you Candace!!! And I'll give you a full WL report

Hi sis!!!

I hope so....I can't even post without singing in like 4 times

Rotating between days and nights would be difficult. I can only work dh's days off which are t/w/sa. It's good because it keeps me on a regular schedule, but bad because I never see my dh. He works 12 hours rotating between days and nights. People ask me why I homeschool. It's actually easier for us with our crazy crazy work schedules. Luckily we have a community center where they get lots of socialization, and they are naturally very social anyway. One of these days I'm going to ship them to grandma's and take a vacation without them. They love being homeschooled, but a lot of days I am like this. Congrats on your award.


I think I might try to turn my 2 nights a CSR into one night CL somewhere, and then add a night at HRH. So much for trying to save a couple hundred dollars. I tried.... really I did. Time to make some calls

 

[padawans]

pas Congratulations!!!! It's always nice to be recognized for your hard work!

Why oh why am I having such changing issues today????

You need to book one night somewhere like I do. Then you can change it at will whenever the mood strikes. It won't screw up your whole vacation, and it satisfies that urge.

I am completely dying right now with laughter!!!!
Do you really do that????

Well yeah....I do it to try a new resort. I just can't decide which resort I wan't to try.

You're a funny lady!!!

Well....it's happening again. I am even making myself crazy!! Have noticed that POR is open again with free dining. Now this is going in circles, but since we upgraded, some other things have also come up for us this year and DH also wants to do some major things around the house.

So....talked to DH about going to POR for a whole lot less. But he still says NO!!! AND he threatened to take away my 2013 trip (s) if I don't stop! I think I have made myself sick with constantly thinking of how much $$$ could be saved by making a change.

I know we have an attachment to the Poly, but why am I still going on like this!! I am stirring my own pot!

Hahahahaha!!! We are soooooo alike!!! I sit here just thinking about having that extra $$$, and the thing is ~ I don't even know what I'd do with it! It would probably go into savings and sit there. But...then I think too, about the fact that we also very recently just spent $2200 on kitchen appliances, $500 in giving our living room a little makeover, and I keep staring at all of the summer camp registration forms that need to be filled out and paid for, to the tune of $1000!!!! And, that doesn't even cover the whole summer!!! I am such a cheapskate, and I deserve this vacation, exactly the way it is...I don't know why it's so hard!

YES!!! I always have a hard time spending money on myself. I wonder if in some way I feel like I need to downgrade us because of that. Does this even make any sense? I wonder of there are any Dr.'s out there that specialize in this!!
Strangely enough, DH can usually be swayed by me, if I am persuasive enough. (don't tell him I said that!) But this time, he is NOT budging. He wants so badly to do the Poly again for us and the girls who keep talking about it all the time, and I get that.
OT but yes aren't those summer camps a killer? I am home with my girls during the day, and work part time at night, but I put them in camp for a week in the summer just to mix it up for all of us. (Actually this week will probably save my sanity in the summer!)

I wish I had a problem spending money. I have the opposite problem.

Hi everyone!

We have been here since Friday and are having an amazing time. I posted on the GF thread some photos of the construction. We can't see or hear it from SL, so it isn't bothering us. We went over the the WL last night. after dinner we sat on the rocking chairs outside and watched the sun go down. it doesn't get much more relaxing than that.

Pas, congrats on your nursing award, you deserve it.

This thread moves so fast I am not sure when I will catch up. However, Dani, I hope your little guy is home and recovered!

More later, time to shower and change for an early dinner at the California Grill

I would like to know of such a Dr...

I am in the same position with my DH - he is absolutely dead set against making any changes to this reservation. I think he is secretly very excited about it.

We don't really splurge in our day to day lives...yes, we did just buy appliances, but it literally took me 2 years to break down and finally buy them...

I work full time during the week and while we could literally live off of DH salary alone, alot of our extras, and vacations would be limited...so I keep telling myself...this is what I work for!!! I deserve it!!!

Busy weekend, busy day ...

Have to leave to pick up DD for a doctor's visit, but wanted to say hello to all the RC peeps today...

Pas: Congrats on that nursing excellence award!!

Sheila, when my DH mentioned my MIL was coming, I thought of all my RC "adopted grammas" that I'd want to invite....I know you can't pick your family....but boy oh boy if I could, That's funny about your ancestry, PBH is the closest I'll probably ever get to the Italian Riveria....BTW they have excellent Gelato Will DH think you're totally crazy if you told him you've adopted a Pas and a HRH....(we'll sleep on the day bed) *hoping janet & her DD will join us too*

Well .... today I did something impulsive ... booked AoA for the Sept 28th long weekend!! Have to run it by DD since she will miss 1-2 days of school.

REALLY looking forward to a DISmeet with Deanna, Amanda, Marie, Pas, Candace and perhaps Sheila if we can convince her.

Having to get catch up with all the posts, will do so later!

Love it Padawans! This cracked me up too. This should be mandatory for all for ALL RCers!

How exciting!!!

We could fill up MNSSHP with RCers!

So, when does MNSSHP start? End of September? I was going to do Oct just because MNSSHP is the only reason for me taking another trip...

Disney hasn't released the "official" dates yet. But, MNSSHP starts in Sept. I looked at the crowd calendar on easywdw & it has the 1st MNSSHP date as 9/11.

Yes we do deserve it. Most people would probably be trying to talk their DH's into UPGRADING!! Not downgrading!! It's time to give me head a shake!

 

[LuvLuvLuv]

So I did my Excel sheet for September, and from the looks of it there's a MNSSHP on Friday the 28th, and Sunday the 30th.

I booked the California Grill for the 28th so I can watch from the catwalk!! Then I'll go on the 30th!! Although I doubt the bounceback will include values... I'm going to see when I get there and book if it's available! I'd like to have it paid in full as soon as we get back, then get the airfare and be done!! Can we really keep this together???

Yay Janet!! There's so many of us!! It's going to be a party!!

 

[Mousemommy1]

Plus, I have to remember that due to the size of our income tax refund, all $ spent will be replenished, minus about the cost of the airfare....so almost like it never happened....
