Bunnies and mooses and groupies, Oh my!!! The Wilderness Lodge groupies thread. 4.0

[Muushka]

So the big day that took 10 months to plan has come and gone. All of our married life we have planned for this moment, making sure we always did things together, like taking classes together, starting hobbies together, etc. so we would not face our life after children asking each other "who are you?".

The newlyweds are now at The Lodge. No calls, no E-Mails, no Facebook comments.

So here we are, TV playing, dog at my feet.

I just looked at DiznyDi and asked - "Now What".

That is just about the sweetest thing I have read in a long time.
No! Wait!! What you have written all along has been so sweet!

Now I have a fever! Oy!

hi everyone :

My dh has a major case of the addonitis right now! He wants to get some more VWL points.

So... I am asking for some advice....

We are thinking of selling our points via resale. They are 4 small contracts. 28, 29, 47 and 48 for a total of 148. If we sell them via resale with the TSS will we have to pay closing costs / ROFR/ etc. for each small contract??

Can we sell them as one big group? Do you think they would get "premium" price?? LOL! All we'd be doing is selling to buy..so that money would be going right back to Disney LOL.

Thanks!

I've seen a couple of listings that are for a total of points but it has said it is two contracts or something similar. Since each one is legally separate there's costs for each though.

Since your selling, have the buyer pay the closing costs then you may just have to pay the straight percentage of the sale to the agent and it shouldn't make a difference to you as the seller on the number or size of the contracts. I've only bought, not sold but when buying our first contract I did ask about what would be involved in selling and that seemed to be about it. Just don't negotiate those costs! I'd call and discuss with an agent.

[Granny]

I hope you're feeling much better very quickly, Barb. Take care of yourself!

 

[ransom]

I hope you feel better soon, Muushka!

Dizny Dad -- When you're at loose ends, the best thing to do is plan your next vacation.
Enjoy your new life!

When you see Rozzie tell her Muushka says hello and watch Off Kilter for me!

Going back and tying up loose ends- I'm sorry, but after running the race when I found Rozzie after her finish (she did the 13k, so although she is faster than me her longer race took, well, longer) I totally forgot to give her your message!

And on a more current note, I hope you feel better very soon!!!

Muushka - keep thinking about the Lodge - it can help.

ransom - The cool thing about being in DVC, it really makes you plan ahead. The December visit is "in the can", May '10 is all set except for ADRs.

Now what? . . . . . I'll keep thinking about the Lodge

 

[DVCGeek]

I decided to switch to a custom Figment avatar made from a picture I took in the gift shop @ the end of Journey into Imagination with Figment during my trip last week. What do you think?

Also, got my ADRs made Tuesday and booked 3 'tours' last night for our multi-family Jan/Feb 2010 trip! (DW & I for 6 nights [BLT MK view studio] + my parents 3 nights [BLT SV studio] + her parents for mostly overlapping 3 nights [VWL studio; BLT SV waitlisted so we could all be in the same place...]) 180 days returning made things a zoo, but it is nice to have them now and not have to worry about 90 going forward.

Dizny Dad - sounds like a good plan.

Nothing better than to make the experience part of yourself - cool avatar!

I took some ibuprophen and viola! Much better . I think it was one of those short-lived viral thingies.

Glad you're feeling better Muushka !
The H1N1 vaccine was delivered to my place of work today. I had just finished a night shift and was asleep when the phone call came in stating I had to come back into the hospital between 1 pm and 6 pm if I wanted a shot. That's the same as waking up a day shift person and telling them to come in between 1 am and 6 am ! So I turned it down....I was too exhausted. Hope I didn't make a mistake. But glad again the advil helped you Barb & it wasn't the swine flu !

And now big hugs to DiznyDi. We just found out that the wedding coordinator did not record the wedding music as discussed! He missed that detail! We discussed the music and its recording during two different meetings. "Not a problem" was the response.

We were directed to ask the assistant if he had taken care of it. His comment, "I asked Saturday morning, but was told by the coordinator that we would not be recording it".

DW & DD had put together quite a collection of musicians, soloists, and beloved family songs once sung by those already called home. The heartache of lost opportunity is saddening; too late to go back now.

We need our next visit to the World as soon as possible!

But, in good news, we have heard from the newlyweds and they are having a very magical time! They are experiencing lots of friendly comments and Fast Passes from the CMs, have had lots of free desserts, and a few extraordinary experiences. The magic is still there!

Tell Dizny Di and the newlyweds that this is their "IDIOT"
moment.
When the old guy and I got married, the florist forget one bouquet for the wedding party. Of course I panicked because one of the brides maids would now walk down the aisle without flowers. My mom told me that every wedding needs an "idiot" moment so when you celebrate your 25th Anniversary you look back and say "Remember that idiot sound person forgot to record our music" and it gives you some thing to laugh about.

Not sure if it calmed me down then but we do laugh about it now... although your missed opportunity sounds a bit more special

My "idiot" moment was that the woman who was responsible for letting down my train before I walked down the aisle, didn't let it down all the way, so I went down the aisle with my train halfway bustled up. Only my mom realized what had happened though.

Oh DiznyDad I'm sorry. Our "idiot" moment was our cake. The cake looked really great but when we fed it to each other I immediately knew they had made us the wrong flavor. DH of course didn't even notice! Nothing we could do about it at that point. Maybe every wedding should have an idiot moment. It's good luck!

Glad to hear the newlyweds are having a good time & your trip will be here before you know it!

Hope you're feeling better today Muushka!

Happy Halloween everyone!

I just have to jump in on this.

Horselover, your DH was just so mezmerized by your beauty that all systems were turned off except for his heart pounding for you.

And thank you everybody for your idiot moments! I can't really think of an idiot moment in our wedding (34 yrs ago). I'm sure it is because I was so mezmerized by DiznDi's beauty that all systems were turned off except for my heart pounding for her.

(Maybe this will get me my very own Dole Whip this next trip!)
