[Happydog]

Just had to catch up here and say YAY to your lists and final countdowns this is just so cool!!! HOW exciting for you! It is going to be so much fun!! I think it will be easiest to meet up with you all on the 30th when you go to Lunch at Epcot? Is that at Chef's??? I think you said you were going to MK on Sunday as well? We can xchange #s before you leave!

Kuddos to you for being done packing...

Now-are you quite sure that you've packed enough?...-(Swimsuit won't use-but must pack)..? that cracked me up....

Congratulations on your weight loss! That's fabulous! Well done you.

(btw-David noticed that you changed your avatar-when he was reading over my shoulder again yesterday....-we both like it.......that child has a photographic memory...

3 MORE DAYS...​

LOL...well the swimsuit decision might change between now and then!!! I'm pretty sure I have packed everything that I will need LOL!!!! I definitely won't be going with out! The worst part is the first thing I'm doing when I get there, well after I ride TSM is going shopping in DHS LOL!!!!!

Awww...your David is just the sweetest little guy!! Tell him I said hello and that Nobby and I are going to make sure he gets a shout out!!! Nobby has plans that I can't reveal LOL!!! Thanks I love my new avatar, Leslie found it for me!!

Congrats on the weight loss! Can't wait to see all the cute new clothes! Most of all, though...


THREE DAYS!!!!

Let's party WOOT!! Thanks for the congrats on the weight loss! I'm going to weigh myself before I leave on Friday just so I know what my weight going in is...I have prepared myself for a 5lb gain, however I have packed work out clothes so maybe I can maintain!!

That is one loooong packing list.

Congrats on the weight loss! WOO HOO!!

What is a Flckr camera?

Thanks Leslie!! A Flckr camera is a hand held video camera that has 1 hour of storage and comes with a built in USB port so I can immediately download clips and recharge it! I hope to record the parade and set it up on You Tube for you!!!

SO, you bring all those clothes and are still planning to do laundry?? impressive. You are a list-maker extraordinaire!! I LOVE lists - couldn't live without them.
I hope you have an absolutely magical, awesome time!! You all deserve it!! (doesn't everyone?)

Yes I do, it boggles my mind!! I don't need to do laundry, however because I know I'll probably be doing some sweating with it being so humid, I will want to wash my capris at least halfway through!

Thanks for the well wishes!! I know we are going to have a great time!!

OMGoodness! Jenny! You are so hilarious! You don't plan on doing ANY swimming at all yet you still MUST pack your swimsuit? LOL!!! You crack me up!

Oh my dear sweet girl, you are going to have such an amazing time! I double, triple promise that I WILL go back and catch up on every word of this PTR because you know I will be hangin' on every word of the TR when you get back!

I told you before but I must say it again, I am SO PROUD of you for all your hard work and effort into losing all of that weight! Girl, you are so gonna look smokin' in all those Disney pics!

Drive safely dear and enjoy yourself as much as is legally allowed!

Kim I just adore you!! Your replies are always full of life and happiness! I'm so glad you will be catching up with me and joining me on my TR!! I can't wait for your new TR you and your DH did an amazing job!!!!!

Thank you so much for your encouragment, it does mean a lot!!!! I will drive safely...and no worries about that fun part LOL!!

Congrats on your weight loss!! I can't wait to see pictures.

Girl, I thought I was an overpacker until I read your list. I think you pack as much as I do for our family of 4. Next time DH says I'm packing too much then I'll show him your list. In all seriousness, I used to pack as much stuff for myself as I do now for our entire family. It seems like as our family grows, my packing condenses.

See...I make it my goal to help some other DISer realize that they are not as bad as of a packer as they could be! I'm okay being the standard overpacker LOL!!!!

So that's how you learn to stop overpacking...you have kids!!! FANTASTIC!! I can't wait to tell Prince P about that!!! He's going to love it!!!!!

Jen, you must be so proud of that weight loss! I can't wait to see pictures from this trip, so many fun DIS meets and a brand new figure! You go girl!!!

Aww thanks Anita...I'm really excited about my weight loss! I still have a ways to go but to see myself losing it makes it so much easier!!!!!

I am so looking forward to this trip and all the events and meets!!!!!!

Chapter 19: Uh-oh I’m Running Out of Witty Titles

Alrighty my goal tonight is to be asleep before 10pm so let’s see if I can do that!!!! However I did want to do a quick update to report a few things!! First of all my Open House at School was a complete success, I had about 23 parents (more than I have ever had before) stop by and say hi!!!!! I came home, all set to get to work on that to-do list, well I ended up sitting down and just relaxing for a bit!! That felt very nice!!!! However, that one t-shirt I needed to make kept nagging at me…so I finally caved and made it!

I love it!!! Paula and I are going to be very cute in our matching shirts LOL!! In case you are wondering she’s the loud one LOL!!!! Anyways speaking of P, according to my latest conversation with her she still hasn’t packed LOL!! However she does have Friday off so I imagine she will get that done LOL!!! She has been given one task and only one task for Friday and that is to remind me not to forget my school ID badge! That is how I’m getting into Universal for free and how she is getting a great deal on her ticket, so she can’t let me leave that in my car like I usually do!!!!

And in BREAKING NEWS…swimming has been discussed!! Yes pick your jaws up off the floor but this notorious NO SWIMMING AT DISNEY girl has actual considered seriously spending the evening at the SSR pool. Paula and I discussed how nice it might be on her arrival evening after our very nice dinner at the Brown Derby to head back to the resort and spend some time at the pool. So you might wonder what has brought on this change of plans, well its HOT and HUMID here! Now I know this is no shock to most of you because its Florida, however it is unusually HOT and HUMID for this time of year. The humidity is so bad that when I get out of my car my glasses fog up and I about kill myself trying to get from my car to wherever I’m going (I’m sure Paula can attest to the humorous situation that is me getting out my car while I’m on the phone with her LOL). So this unusual weather calls for unusual behavior (in this case me swimming) LOL!! Now this is just an idea at this point, you’ll have to wait until the TR to find out if that swimsuit actually gets used or not! BTW Paula is bringing the towels YAY!!

So would you like to see part of the haul I’m taking with me!! Here is a picture of my laptop bag, duffle bag, and binder!!

I would show you my suitcase, but it might scare small children so I’m going to pass on that!! BTW I totally forgot to add to my list my lint roller…yes I bring a lint roller with me and my Downy Wrinkle releaser so those have been stashed into the duffle bag!! Oh and Paula was kind enough to point out that I forget my Vera Zip Id Case and Lanyard, but those are also in the duffle bag!! WOOT!!! Okay so am I certifiable yet??? Oh on the good side though Paula did talk me out of 3 pairs of jeans so I took a pair out and will only be going with 2 pairs. Now I know to you northerns wearing jeans at Disney in September is insane, however I wore jeans in July LOL!!!

So what does the rest of my week hold for me…well my family for my birthday gave me a treat to the spa. So tomorrow after work I’m going to get a pebble pedicure and manicure!! I’m looking forward to the pampering! Thursday I go to the hairstylist to update my do and get highlights!! I’m really excited about that!! Friday…oh what a precious day that will be!!! Friday I go to work and leave right afterwards to head to Disney!!! I’m so so so excited!!! YAY!!! Only 3 more days!!!

OOOH one more thing, I can’t believe I almost forgot!! For those of you interested, I will be “tweeting” while we are at Disney!! Here is the link to my site if you would like to follow along: Jen's Twitter Page

We will also have internet access so I might post a couple of live updates!!!

 

[IluvXU]

Have a great trip..... I am not sure I will be back to say that again!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Love the quiet friend t-shirt and think a relaxing evening by the pool would be just what the Dr. ordered on arrival day for Paula!

I just signed up to follow you on twitter and then said "duh. you'll be there too."

 

[MeMom]

Thank you MeMom!! I'm really looking forward to comparing pictures!! Going to be a great time had by all!!!!

Yes the final piece of the substitute's work (the Fruit Loops LOL) was bought to today and put in my room! At this point I think she has everything she will need! YAY

Do tell. What are they going to do with the Fruit Loops? I'm always looking for fun activities, and if there are brightly colored edible sugary rings involved, it's probably fun!

LOL!!! I like my shirt too...its fantastic!!! Hmmmm...I know the weather being like it is the pool is sounding more and more tempting each day!!!!

LOL...well you could still follow me LOL!!!

LOL...well I use the fruit loops as electrons (which might be over the head of your little ones) but we build atom models and then we build covalent and ionic bond structures! I figured if the students were able to build and then eat their models they would deal with the sub better LOL!!!!!


For those of you still waiting on the explosive pumpkin lab I have not forgotten just put it off to the side! I'll be getting that together later in the week (say tomorrow) and then will try to get copies out to all of you!!!

 

[Happydog]
