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

[pas130]

P.S. DD and I only heard bears one night last week at Tahoe!!!

Hi again Mama! Only one night...one night too many for me!

Pas: Too bad we won't be there at the same time as your tentative Sept dates....booo!

Boo to you...sorry couldn't help myself Missing by a few days stinks...it's happening with several of us in August too

I know some RCer Peeps and I will be there the same time, but with so many changes going on, it's hard to keep track!

So very very true...

Good morining or afternoon I should say to you eastcoasters. I changed again. I decided on both trips no CLub level. 9 nights in Oct. CSR/BC and 7 nights Wl/BW split. It's amazing how much cheaper your trip becomes when you ditch the CL. 2 nights at mod doesn't hurt either. Cl is nice, but that extra 100.00 a night...hmm. I should probably nip it the bud know before I get to used to it. Just not sure.

Spent the morining in our pool teaching the kids to snorkel. The younger is so athletic, and the older one...well let's just say it's a good thing he is super smart. He swims like he dances which similar to Elaine on Seinfield.... Seinfield fans will know what I'm talking about. My dh says he gets if from me

Time for a ticker change again.

I often debate on the Cl vs. no CL...way too often the CL wins....we are spoiled...I know the Elaine dance, I do it at work all the time, especially when some one mentions I look like her I actually can dance OK, but it's more fun being silly

Hi everyone! We are back from the lake and the kids are back home too!

So they released FD for fall dates today and I need to call and change my ressie. What resort? Stick with BC? I can't decide. I am so tempted to book the Poly but then I think how much the kids will LOVE SAB. Crap...I need to call.

Welcome back! BC vs. Poly ...TOUGH CALL! SAB Monorail I am not helping...

So I was thinking .... always a dangerous thing!! Since we are getting close to needing a new thread maybe we could have a list in the first post with who's going when and where for the first post. Now I realize that this would be quite an undertaking for RCers .... if Sarah would like to do it great since she thought of the idea .... if not I could see how I did with it?????

Duly noted! We will save a slot on page 1 for the brave soul....

Yay for ME mail. And thanks for the hug. at AKL-CL. I've got to take a break from checking Heather's thread. It's making me all antsy. Although the latest update will be the CL goodies... don't think I can resist very long.

Annnnnd, thanks for the "Breakfast for Dinner" suggestion -- I know what kiddo and I are having for dinner tonight! I'll use any excuse to add bacon to the menu...

Yummy!!!! Enjoy! And Heather's last TR made me book CR more than once

Hopefully they when they grow up they can laugh at themselves like we do. When you can barely walk and chew gum at the same time it helps to have a sense of humor about it.

I do hope so. Statistically, she's got to be better than her momma one of these days as I am the most uncoordinated person I know. Someone suggested I try out Zumba and after laughing heartily for a good 5 minutes, I politely said it probably wasn't a good idea to turn someone's exercise class into a stand-up routine. (I really wish I could find the video I've got of my kiddo dancing in her diaper to share with you lot -- it's ultimate first date blackmail material.)

Pas Your trips are little shorter, less frequent and you have some mouths to feed. You also don't eat at TS. It's probably a better fit for you than for us.

What got me rethinking Club level is when I started looking at the offerings at GF. WL, YC, BW and BC don't even compare. I'm not a person that need to be pampered. I like Cl for the food and drinks. I also think the Poly CL is worth it because of the location, and the awesome lounge. I will stay Cl at GF or Poly sometime over the next year. I tried to switch my Wl to GF cl, but it wasn't available. If the Ap discounts are 35-40%...hmm


Mis I also have a friend that wants me to do Zumba with her.

 

[LuvLuvLuv]

Very behind... but a few things... then I MUST shower....

Padawans and Mousemommy.... Gorgeous family pictures!!! Beautiful Families!!!

The TR and final decision is complete!! It has all the details!! I'm so excited!!

Okay... really, I'm going to be late and have to go now

 

[ClareH37]

I'm always impressed when someone can remember all their changes. There has always been discounts pop warner week. It's historically a very slow time. The pop warner crowds stays at the values so it should not effect availabilty at the deluxes... especially Club level.

I'm impressed too - but it's more a case of my TA not letting me forget lol

It would be an added bonus to get a discount, fingers crossed.

Welcome back!!! Missed ya! AKL CL! Awesome...with a discount, will you do another BWI trip or will it be back to YC

Glad to be back and catching up with everyone's changes

Part of me would like to return to the BWI but part of me would like to try something new, hence AKL. There's no way I will stay BWI CL without a good discount, I love my deluxe stays but $4.000 for a 7 night solo stay is just crazy.

Just thought I would share

 

[Jungle Cruiser]

Okay, here's the plan. I am going to plan to post each day a list of what I have for the WDW vacations for the RC family! If I make a mistake, let me know and I will correct it! Once we get a good list going I won't have to post it daily

I think this will help all of us know who will be visiting when they are and can hopefully make plans to meet before they go. Sadly that happened to me last trip, I PM'd my cell number to someone the day after they left and they weren't checking internet while they were away!

So, I am happy to compile the list at this point and GG feel free to help!!!

Our RC QUEEN Jeanette still rules...I thought as one her her royal subjects I could just help out!

Here's what I have so far:

Mousemommy 7/15-7/25 WL CL

Pas 8/9-8/12 ASSP/BC CL (possibly 9/28-10/1 or 11/12-11/16)

Jennyjinx 9/12-9/21 Poly

Missoutandabout 9/17-9/23

Jungle Cruiser 9/17-9/28 BC CL

Chimo2u 9/28-10/4 Poly CL & 10/4-10/7 HRH CL (US)

Grumpy Grandma 10/14-10/26 BWV, AKV, VWL & OKW

Jenny, Missoutandabout and I will have to meet!!!

 

[disneydreamin247]

We are 8/5-8/17 Poly CL!

 

[i_heart_the_mouse]

We are at the Poly 8/14-8/21. See you in the lounge disneydreamin!

Hi RCer's,
Jungle Cruiser, What a cool idea!

YC/CL Oct 3-8--Hubster and me

BC Nov 7-9--Quick visit w/family before the wedding



And todays adventure:

Out of the blue, my new phone was delivered-early! They aren't even really due to ship for a few days yet. So, I popped it in a tote and headed off to Verizon to get it activated. Yep, I am officially a 53 year old geek. Imagine: Me, getting my phone activated, and 4 other guys my son's age, all very interested to see a real Galaxy S3 in person. Hilarious in retrospect. I won't be cool in another week or two when they are shipping them by the 100's. So I guess you have to enjoy your notoriety when it happens.
Queen for a day, or something, but it evaporates quickly. I still had to make dinner.


Missoutandabout,
Hope your phone arrives soon, if it hasn't already!

 

[Missoutandabout]

JC: Ooooh, FAB! Love it! Love to see the whole gang and who will be where and when.

I stupidly forgot to add where we'll be. It looks like -- if all things go as planned and we actually get to go -- we'll be at BC CL the same time as you! (Actually, the first two days at POR but the last 4 days at BC.)

I love this. I actually was setting mine up and remembered that you had pre-ordered yours and would be getting it today too! Had to stop by and see if you posted. So nifty and light. Still trying to arrange it how my old one was set up, I fear that'll take a bit of getting used to for me.

 

[*Fantasia*]

Hello everyone! I have a good legit reason why I had to change my resort! We were suppose to leave next month, however, things are just too chaotic around that time that I decided to change the date. For the better, I changed it for next year in May. The weather is not too hot... I hope.

Anyway.. instead of POP, I had to change it to POR. There will be 5 of us this time. And POP can only accommodate up to 4 guests unfortunately. But we will see how our budget goes.. if I can swing to get 2 room at POP, then we will go that route or even at least for two nights and the rest at POR.

Has anyone changed their resort lately?

We are at BC same time as you are at YC! I just changed mine today! I debated Poly for a couple of hours. Then I priced AofA. That only saved me about $400 once I upgraded the dining plan and I think the BC location is worth the $400.

Add me to the list please - BC - oct 2 - 8.

 

[disneydreamin247]

We got home from the shore about an hour ago. I went through all my mail an packages (of which there were many! lol) and our new ME packet came as well as our packet. Woohoo! I still think its weird we get a packet even though we have a room only. Being a TA sure can be confusing.

 

[Grumpy Grandma]

Sarah your idea for the list is excellent .... it'll be so much fun to see who is going when and so much easier to make arrangements for meets ....

 

[i_heart_the_mouse]

My 9 year old son cracked heads with another boy jumping into the pool this evening and is now in the ER with DH. He has a broken nose and possibly further facial injury.

Any positive thoughts sent this way would be much appreciated.

Thinking of your little guy and hoping that he'll be okay with only minor injury.

 

[gwynne]

I heart the mouse,Sending you hugs and prayers for your son. That must be so stressful, hope he is feeling better soon.


Basketlacey,
What fun we'll be at BC/YC at the same time. Maybe we can have a glass of wine and say hello!

We just got back from our pediatric offices after hours because DD8 came home complaining of chest and stomach pain?!?! Turns out to be a combo of slight constipation and some acid reflux...likely due to the giant ice cream cone she ate after lunch today....

It's always something....
