I need to talk and think a lot on this one.
Do you usually stay on-site, E? If so, just run the numbers. It doesn't take long to figure out how much cheaper it is with DVC. Once we started staying on-site, we couldn't go back to off-site. Then we stayed in a studio at OKW, and decided we HAD to have at least that! LOL, our big mistake was staying in a 2 bedroom villa at OKW our first DVC owner's trip! Now we never stay in anything smaller than a 1 bedroom. Once the initial DVC is paid for, you are basically staying for your maintanence fee each year. For us, that is less than $1000, and we have enough points to go in a 2 bedroom for 10 days or more if we want. Last year we did WDW for 5 days in a 1 bedroom and 5 in a 2 bedroom and still had enough points for a Hawaii exchange. WE always rejected timeshares too, but this is as much like a timeshare as WDW is like a local variety amusement park! No comparison!
 
:D :wave:

Morning Angels! Just now getting on the computer at work since we had major thunderstorms this morning while I was at home. I had to rush taking a shower and drying my hair.

Brought my kids into work w/ me for the morning since my FIL has a doctor's appt. They don't realize that the DIS is actually my work!

Baboo - sounds like a great box you got! Has everyone received their boxes now? Has Carol received everything yet?
 
Wow, I just noticed I passed another milestone post! It is kind of getting to be like watching the odometer on the car. It rolls over when you least expect it!
 
Congratulations Diane on 11,000 posts!!

Congratulations Steph on 3,000 posts!!

I was too scared to keep my computer on this morning. Work has been very busy today, so I haven't been able to get on until now.

Attention Gina! WOO HOO!!! When I put on my suit this morning for work, I found $23 in the pockets!:Pinkbounc
Must have been because I have my lucky angel earrings and bracelet on today!

That's all for now. I'll have to check in later when I get home.

Gotta love those WOO HOOOO!!! moments!!!

Glad to see you survived the storm!

Congrats to Diane and Steph! Chatty, ain't we???? :teeth: (my one smiley allotment has now been used!)

Hope everyone is having a wonderful day!!!
 
BUMP FROM PAGE 2!!!!

OMG Angels! What is happening to us? We keep slip sliding away to page 2.

Still planning on going to Six Flags in Ohio tomorrow w/ the family. We will stay at a hotel w/ a pool in case it rains. It will be nice to just get away. So I might not be on tomorrow or Thursday. Don't get into any trouble (30) w/o me!!!

Forgot to say CONGRATS DIANE ON 11,000 POSTS AND CONGRATS STEPH FOR 3000 POSTS
 
Re: exchange. Steph is still waiting.

Re: Sun Goddess. I think I am waiting for one more.

Baboo, sounds like a great box of stuff. And to think that was all going to a yard sale.

Laura, lucky you today. What are you going to do with your new found wealth?
 
Hi Guys.....I couldn't get the Dis to work for me earlier so I spent the day cleaning & shopping!
I have about 5 minutes now before I have to go p/u Meg from cheer practice. She goes away to cheer camp next week for 4 days....what ever will I do without her????:p
Matthew's umping a game right now, Dylan's out playing & DH's commuting so I have 5 minutes of QUIET!!!!:D I LOVE that!!!
Carol-I was so hoping that the Sun Goddess packages would all be there before you left on vacation....I'm getting too excited to be patient!
LK-Maybe I should market those lime green earrings & bracelets as lucky jewelry...I'd probably sell a lot more of them that way!LOL!
 
Oh, the riches of $23!!! What ever shall I spend it on?

Ended up being a beautiful day here, but now it looks like it may storm again tonight.

Lars, do you need a testimonial from me regarding how I never found money in my pockets until I started wearing my lucky angel earrings and bracelets? Shall we do an infomercial? I see big bucks in this for us, girlfriend!

John, I must agree - you did a wonderful job with those yard sale items for Baboo. I sure hope your DW doesn't notice anything missing from your house... ;)
 
Hoping all our friends in the middle part of the country don't get too pounded with t-storms tonight! My personal weather expert says there are some around again. :(
 
Okay, I am getting off the computer NOW! One of those huge t-storms just blew in and it isn't pretty!! Not a fun year for Cub Scout camp.:(
 
WOW, LK! You guys are really getting pounded!

I'm sure the kids are doing fine....and telling ghost stories....;)
 
bump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where is everyone tonight?:( We had some major t-boomers here. They just stopped so I thought I'd jump on the boards or chat w/ some people, and NOBODY is here!!!

Do I have to go back downstairs and actually be w/ my DH again?!

Forgot to mention - I'm John's riddlebuddy!!!!! Lucky me!!! Now what can I have him wear? An Irish kilt? 4 Leaf Clover pasties?
 
Hi Lorraine!

I haven't been online tonight.....it's too hot to sit at the computer. Hope the storms are done for the night.....it's so much fun with little kids during thunderstorms. :eek: (who am I kidding....I don't like them either!)

I know E had power problems this morning....hoping all is well with her.

Has Marsha been on lately? I know she wasn't feeling well and I'm hoping she's OK. :confused:
 
Halfway down page 2.

Our voices must be getting tired. Do you think we've run out of things to discuss?? Or is it just vacation time?? You non-Riddleconners will have your work cut out for you while we are gone.
 
Hi all... sorry I haven't been here. Power has been out and is still out. Hopefully tonight or tomorrow we'll have it again!

Congrats to Diane and Steph on your post counts!!

Yay, Carol is getting a Dell!!!!!

Carol, I am also thinking that not only are some busy with summer stuff but that with the storms that have been going through many can't get online. I should've brought my laptop in to recharge it today so I'd at least have two hours of DISing in ;) I couldn't even go to the library yesterday... power was out there too.

But I'm here for today and hopefully tonight I will find some way to get on!
 
It's just been too hot to be in my house.....maybe I should run the computer cable out to the deck!!!

E - are there lots of people in your area still without power?
