Why did I know you would have found a Christmas Kitty????
Vancouver, Canada!
I love Hawaii - that place is just so soothing. I want to go back. Alaska is beautiful too but I prefer to go warm places for vacations!
We did have some news from our WISH co-ordinator yesterday. It seems as if Niether POP or any of the ALL STARs could get us in from the 17th-23rd they could only have us thru 22nd. Soooo we could either cut our trip a day short (YEAH RIGHT!!!) or we could go to a less kid friendly resort. There were 3 that had openings for our dates. CBR, POR and POFQ if we thought we might like to stay there. WELL YEAH!! DUH . I actually replied in a real nice voice "Anywhere is fine with us, we are just so grateful for this trip (We REALLY REALLY are, I was not being sarcastic at all!!) But any of those sound fine. The boys and DH would really rub it in my face if we end up at either of the PO ones them being from La and all." The next question was well you know we never even really asked (actually they did he just didn't remember! ) Would ya'll even want to stay till Sun? I find it's easier to fly out then BUT... if you would rather come home Sat we will work it out for you!" UH Yeah cut the trip as short as you can. We are only doing this for DS5 and we really have no desire to stay at DW longer than neccessary!!!! But for the sake of DS5 we will let you hogtie us down and keep us at DW!!
NOT!!!!
So anyway we should be hearing tomorrow where we are staying!
Thank you so much!! You are so sweet!! This trip is so much more than just a trip to us. I am going to do a TR just to try to put it into words.
I'm very thankfull for the DIS I've gleaned so much from it.
AND....talk about being upgraded... Well we found out earlier in the year that we would be able to build and buy a house thru Habitat for Humanity with the house note, taxes and Ins. being cheaper than what we are paying for rent right now. We've been waiting on the land to start being developed. WELL we got a call last week and they are breaking ground on our house Sep 22nd.!!!! We rode by tonight and they are building the road!!! We are so excited. We live in an apartment right now and DH had to quit his job due to his health, but he is going to school full time! But anyway the decrease in the house note will help BIGGG Time. (For those of you that don't know DH has kidney failure and is waiting on a transplant just so you don't think he is a loser quitting his job or anything!!) I'm proud of him for wanting to go to college. As sick as he is and as long as it's been, 27 years w/LUPUS and @ 7w/ kidney failure, most are not working and a lot have given up hope. His dialysis has not been cleaning and his Dr.s are amazed at what all he does. They say he is very tough and has a lot of will power. I say it just shows how STUBBORN he is .
hey guys! here is my mickey head!

Uhm...I am shocked! I think your son is about to give you the finger!!!
Hey Disneymom.
Yeah, it was not a good day. But, he sprang back to life around 7pm last night and was up all night...
Luck you on the buckets. I put one near him when it is about to happen, and he pushed it away screaming and it goes everywhere of course...
one time he went to swat the bucket and I moved it away, and he got my cheek instead...Ouch

Silly goose---he was being a T Rex!!!!
Since I've never learned to multi-quote (PLEASE somebody HELP ME on this!!!)
I just want to say THANKS for all the kind words and support. We are blessed to have a strong family, friends, and church support. Also our Motto is this is our life lets make each day the best. And DS5's is God made me special and Loves me very Much!!!
Yes we are VERY excited about the house. After @7 years of some serious medical expenses Our dream was just to be able to afford to rent something decent. We are on subsidized rent right now and our House note is still going to be WAAAYYYYY less. If I told you how much you wouldn't believe it!! We have already put in almost 200 hours of service toward our house and we havn't even started building it yet!!
That is one reason this trip means so much to us. There was really NO way we could afford to go on our own. We can barely go visit some of our family. Not just expenses but all the medical stuff to take care of.
To each one of you that has ever given to any WISH foundation, Time, money etc...
THANK YOU!!!!

I am not sure If I can remember them
1. What are your objectives in life? How are you making sure you stay on the right path to accomplishging your goals?
2. Name a situation in a past job where you went above and beyond to make a customer's experience more pleasant than it had to be.
3. Have you ever had a bad experience with a co-worker? how did you handle it?
4. Name a situation where you had to find a way around something to get what you wanted accomplished.....THIS WAS MY STUMPER
That is all I can think of...
Awesome story.....that must have been strange, like you said,comimg back to a new job a week after your honeymoon.......but glad it turned out well
