Terry,

I have always thought that you & Stephanie were blessed to have each others friendship. :goodvibes

Who da thunk 20 years ago after trying to sell her encyclopedias and then jewelry we would still be together as best friends. I am so fortunate to have gotten the card to call her about the encyclopedias!!!!



























She is a pretty nice boss too!!!!!:lmao::lmao:
 
Glynis wonderful news about your dad!!!!!!!!!

Stephanie you are such a good friend, we are all blessed to know you :goodvibes
 
My wonderful friends! I am in such a state right now! My heart is pounding and I'm literally sobbing..... for joy!!!

The oncologist gave us such good news! The cancer in the prostate area is so tiny that one shot every 4 months will take care of it. Dad has the first shot scheduled for Monday morning. My brother will go with him and stay with him until we see if there are going to be any negative side effects that we need to deal with.

As for the rib, the oncologist didn't see any cancer at all. He did see a scar from a cracked rib my dad got about 4 years ago when he fell out of a tree. He did say that it's possible that there's some cancer in the scar, and if there is, the shot will also take care of that. But he thinks it's most likely arthritis that the PCP mistook for cancer.

I can't even begin to describe how I'm feeling right now! I know you will all celebrate with me, and I feel so blessed to have you all to help hold my hand through this whole thing. I have felt your love and your good thoughts coming my way, and I thank you with all my heart!

I'm off to wake the baby up from his nap and drive to my sister's house to go to lunch to celebrate! I'm too excited and happy to sit still anymore!


Such good news Glynis!!! :dance3::dance3::cheer2::cheer2:
 
so last night I went to bed like I always do. Late, about 1:30am even though I had napped at least once for an hour earlier. I turned on the alarm and put my ear plugs in and my eye mask on.

The eye mask is because Hal comes back into the bedroom and turns on the light. The ear plugs are because of the noise he makes and because he snores loud enough to wake the dead!!!

I heard my alarm this morning but kept hitting the snooze button. Well apparently, I kept hitting it and did not realize that after an hour, it does not work any more. At 10 I looked up and went into a panic because I was supposed to have been at work by 9!!!!!!

I quickly called work and my co-worker said to quickly call Stephanie cause she was on her way over to my house!!!:eek:

She is highly allergic to cats, :cat::cat::cat: so I am wondering how she was going to get in. She said she had it all planned out. She was going to get a rock and break a window and push past the cats and then slap me awake. If someone else was in the house, she was not sure how she was gonna handle that. If I was dead, that sure was gonna put a damper on the December trip :eek::sad2::lmao:

I told her to remember that we had gotten trip insurance!!! :lmao::rotfl::lmao:

Needless to say this morning was a little exciting. I really must have needed the sleep having done that.

She is such a fantastic friend that she was willing to risk life to make sure I was okay. :love::love:


Blah, blah, blah. All I knew was that you had better not have been dead because I'm really looking forward to our December trip! :thumbsup2

You darn near gave me heart failure. Of course I'm glad you brought up that we do have that insurance....:lmao::lmao::lmao:

:banana::cool1::woohoo::yay::cheer2: yah for such good news.
 
Theresa glad Cassidy seems to be very understanding.

Yeah for the phone interview.

sorry about the dodos

Did you get me and the girls info for the ornament exchange?

:rotfl2: You two crack me up!
 
Elin and Debbie have great trips I'm sorry I missed you both.

Well, you didn't really miss me! I am sitting in the Comfort Suites BWI unable to fall asleep. We will be getting up in about 5 hours so I need to get some rest. :upsidedow

See some of you very soon. And I am going to try to post some photos on facebook as well as check in here periodically. Have a good week, friends!
 
Good morning. :)

I hope your flight is on time and uneventful this morning, Elin.
 
Good morning, DDA!

Going to be a very LONG day for me.

DS thinks they might not have to wear uniforms today. But he isn't sure. He has decided to go to school in jeans and see what happens. The calendar said last Friday was no uniforms, but DS said they announced they were bumping it to today. Then he never heard anything else about it. He did say the history teacher has it on her board so hopefully we won't get a call to bring him a uniform. :rolleyes1

Princess has some thing at her school today that I have to go to. It is supposed to be outside, first thing this AM. We had HUGE storms last night and now the temp has dropped about 30 degrees. I am not looking forward to that! There is no way the grass has had time to dry out.
 
I think I've finally finished my ADRs and itinerary for January. I'm hoping the crowds will be light, but with the 4/3 deal, that might bring in more people. Here goes:

Day 1 - MK and Cali Grill, 6PM - maybe stay for Wishes, maybe not, depending on how tired we are. Plus we have an early morning the next day.

Day 2 - Sunrise Safari at AK. Dinner at Yachtmas, 6:30

Day 3 - HS, Lunch at SciFi, over to Epcot for PM EMH. Illuminations at 8.

Day 4 - Epcot, Lunch at Tutto, over to MK for Spectro and Wishes.

Day 5 - Open.

I'm wondering what time to make those 2 lunches. Maybe around 1, so a snack in the AM could hold us over.

Does the TiW card cover TS lunch too, or is it restricted to dinner hours?

Looks great! I need to do mine for Emma's birthday trip.

TiW good at all meals. I've even been able to use it to get a beer to go in UK pub.

I would make your California Grill ADR for 5:30 when they first open so you are more likely to get a window seat.
