DDA Chapter 19

[Steffy]

me too!

And our OBX one is a reality as of 6:00 this morning. I booked our 3 BR condo and am waiting for the confirmation from the realty company.

OBX Condo June 2009

Nice! Are you going to be there the same time as Terry???

 

[Steffy]

Good Morning,

Tammi - I'm so sorry to hear about your puppy

Wendy - Welcome!

Jennifer - How is Virginia doing?

Deb - Glad to hear everyone is starting to feel better

Heidi - Congratulations!

Chanon - Thanks for the info on Janet, we don't see you often enough anymore Glad you're not having problems with morning sickness.

Tom - hope all is well with you, we sure wouldn't mind seeing some more Leighanna Disney pictures

Steffy - I had to laugh when you posted about Snuggies, my DD laughs at the commercial every time it's on

Well I survived the latest round at the dentist, I had a little trouble driving home though, my left eye was numb, talk about a strange feeling.
She did have to "surgically" remove it, so it feels like I have this huge gaping hole in my mouth. I haven't let the pain meds wear off yet, and I don't plan on letting that happen today either.

I hope as I catch up I see your doing much better Debbie!

 

[Steffy]

Good Morning DDA!

Tammi, so sorry to hear about your pet.

Heidi, sounds like a rough start to your vacation!

Elin, your condo looks nice! We have thought about vacationing at the OBX, but haven't yet!

Happy Birthday Eric!

Robyn, congrats on the weight loss!

I weighed in yesterday, and dropped another 5 lbs. for the month. Not bad considering I had a WDW trip in there, and I haven't been really good the last week or so.

I got my PhotoPass CD in the mail. Hopefully I can start a trip report soon.

Looking forward to your trip report Tom. I keep saying I'm going to do one. I don't know what happens.

 

[Steffy]

Happy Birthday Eric!!!

Great pictures Tom!

I love OKW Heidi.

 

[Steffy]

!

I love your ticker Beth!!!!

 

[Steffy]

Thank you both.

John has decided to forgo finding a 50 points one and just go with one of the many 100 points that are available.

Good luck. The resale market is blooming!!!! Tons of good contracts to pick up. Now is the very best time to buy.

 

[MinnieMouseMom]

Good morning, all!

You sound chipper this morning, Elizabeth.

Not really! I woke up at 6:45, which is ludicrous for Saturday! So I've just been putzing around on the computer. Paid the electric bill, looked at Facebook, now I am poking around the DIS.

Before I post on the DVC board, I will ask you guys. What is your understanding of DVC pool hopping privileges? Can we hop to ANY pool (like Pop or CBR) or are we only supposed to hop to other DVC pools? I know BCV and AKV are never included for hopping, but we're staying at AKV so that's fine.

I e-mailed IPO yesterday about my August ADRs because the 90 day thing is making want to crawl out of my skin. The girl said I can submit my stuff anytime, so I might just compile that little e-mail today.

 

[Tammi67]

Elizabeth - Yes, DVC members staying on points can hop to any pool other than AKV and BCV. How they will know if you are staying on points or not, I don't know.

I really need to get together and itinerary for August. With my luck, all of a sudden ADRs will revert back to 180 days and I won't have anything ready.

Great! Thanks!!

There is a thread stickied at the top of the Restaurant forum that talks about online ADRs. It sounds like it is going to be a bloody nightmare. I think in 2010 we won't be eating. They are saying the new system will put your ADRs in a "shopping cart". What are the chances that when you click to "check out" that all of your ADRs will actually go through? The Disney Shopping site is NOTORIOUS for not letting you purchase stuff that is in your cart. I'm am not thinking online ADRs are going to work much better, especially if everybody is forced to work with a 90 day window.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Thanks Stephanie, I was hoping someone here has stayed at OKW.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Good Morning.

 

[jackskellingtonsgirl]

Heidi - I think Vicki stays at OKW, too.

 

[Tammi67]

Maybe just buy them one at a time, instead of loading up the cart?

 

[Tammi67]

Heidi - I think Vicki stays at OKW, too.

Me and Elin too!

I made the mistake of putting on Sorcerer Radio. I want to go to WDW now!!!!

I don't know that one would be a vast improvement over the other in terms of time. It scares me! None of the Disney sites work THAT well. The reservations site, the DVC site, the Passholder site - NONE of them are that reliable so there is no way the ADR site will function the way they are saying it will.

 

[Mommy2EmMoLu]

Elin- Enjoy your day! Yay for booking your OBX condo!

Debbie- I hope your mouth is healing well.

Tom- Loved the pics!!! Congrats on the weight loss!

Tammi- I want to go to WDW now too!! I had on a Mickey Mouse shirt yesterday and Lucy would come up to me and kiss him. All day long, it was so cute!!

Deb- Enjoy your busy day and your day off tomorrow.

Heidi- I hope you can get a OKW resale!!!

Jennifer- Enjoy Jeff's party. for the girls

 

[Blueeyes101817]

So i think im going to do some packing today --i figure that i will not need my warmer weather clothes here.....now, i just cant decide what to pack--im figuring i need jeans, and shorts...tanks , tshirts, and sweatshirts...a bit of everything

 

[Glynis]

Good morning, everyone, and Happy Saturday!

Looks like I missed some things:

Wendy - welcome to our little family! I'm Glynis a SAHM to Katie-11, Jacob-9, twins Leslie and Mary-6 and Timothy-5 months. I've been to WDW once, and DL countless times. In fact we're going back in June!!! I can't wait to get to know you better!

Tia - sounds like you had quite a day! I'm glad that things are still on track to get your house. I know how you are looking forward to that!

Jennifer (bear) - I hope the girls start improving. It's no fun when they're sick!

Tom - I loved all the pictures that you posted, and I think you and your wife are as darling as Leighanna! Of course, I could look at her pictures all day long!

Robyn - I'm so sorry you experienced snow in your kitchen! I've done that, and it's so frustrating to have to clean it all up and start over! Happy belated birthday to Eric!

Elin - Good luck with the music stuff today! Wish I was there!

Tammi - I'm so sorry that Nicholas is having a hard time with the death of your dog. It's so tough to lose someone you love. Give him a hug from me!

Deb - Sounds like things are looking up health wise for your family! I hope it stays that way! Are you adjusting to the crazy work hours, yet?

Anne Marie - what's up with the house stuff lately? Do you have a moving date?

Well, my nephews wedding was really nice. He married a girl his age (28) who has been a widow for 4 years. She was only married a short time, and was left with a baby girl. Dan has a 2 year old son from his first marriage. Both kids stood with their parents during the ceremony. It was so cute. As Dan and Carrie kissed, their daugher, Taya, tugged her mom's skirt and asked, "Are we married now?" So darling!

They had a fun dance party after the wedding and it was a lot of fun! The only odd thing was that Dan's ex showed up. She said she was there to pick up their son, but it just seemed awkward! I wouldn't want to be anywhere near my ex's wedding party.

I hope you all have a good day! Timothy is stirring, so it's time to get going on the day!

 

[MrsHeg]

Good morning.

I am getting my gray covered up today, and I couldn't be happier. It's the small things that matter!

I have saome of that that needs to coverd too, it just keeps coming back.

I hope as I catch up I see your doing much better Debbie!

Thanks Steffy, and everyone else, I'm pain med free this morning, and doing fine as l ing as I don't touch my face.

Thanks Stephanie, I was hoping someone here has stayed at OKW.

We stayed there in November, and we'll be staying there in May also.

So i think im going to do some packing today --i figure that i will not need my warmer weather clothes here.....now, i just cant decide what to pack--im figuring i need jeans, and shorts...tanks , tshirts, and sweatshirts...a bit of everything

Looks like you'll need some warm clothes for Disney, it's in the 70's here and the sun is shining, perfect weather for Disney.


Good Morning,

Looks like I don't have any excuse not to get some housework and laundry done today. . . . .
