Dec 09 PTR The Molecular change is in full swing. pg40 the pink puppy

[disneyaddicted]

I don't want to be a downer on my PTR, I just want to post about life and not taking anything for granted.

I think I mentioned before that my brother lives in Texas, Kileen Texas, and he works as a civilian at Ft. Hood,
at eh Soldier Readiness center to beexact, his job is to get paper work together for soldiers being deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan. Things like next of kin and benificiary information is recorded, he doesn't make up the will but gets the paper work for that together.

He normally goes to lunch between 1 and 1:30pm he has an hour so he goes home to see his wife and baby. He left for lunch early yesterday. He was on his way back to base it was about 1:35 and the road was closed and a police car was sitting in the parking lot of his work place, so he left the truck to walk over and see if it was ok that he go in the building and where should he park his truck, he thought they were clearing the road for a few minutes because of a minor emergency, at that time he had no idea that there had been a shooting, the officer motioned for Matt to get in the car, as he was getting in his phone rang and it was one of his work buddies telling him not to come back to work because there had been a shooting and it wasn't secure. The officer drove Matt back to his truck and told him to leave immediatley. He was able to get off base before the lockdown, that is how close he was in time with the shooting, mere minutes.

This call came just a few minutes after I had hung up with DisneyDawn (Hi Dawn, it was nice talking to you)
Matt asked me if I had the T.V. on, I told him no, he said Good before you see anything on the news I just want you to know that I am safe, I wasn't even on base when it happened and then he told me the story, I guess it was still ongoing because at that time he had heard that only 7 people had been killed.

I feel so bad for all the families of the victims, and yet I feel so overjoyed that my brother was not one of them, I even feel guilty for how relieved I feel. I have spent the most part of the evening crying, I feel like I have taken so much for granted. I know that there had to be some divine intervention that my brother decided to take lunch early. Even though it was his building, it wasn't his section that the majority of the shooting happened, but still he doesn't know if anybody he knew has parished or been injured. And as he is telling me this I keep thinking, "But you are ok, you are fine, you are alive." I couldn't stop crying, I wanted to hug him so bad. My brother has always been there for me, I have cried on his shoulders so many times, he has held me up when I couldn't stand on my own anymore. He has stood infront of me to protect me from my ex. He's made me laugh when I thought all I could do was cry. He has been my voice of reason at times and my cheerleader when I was afraid. I always tell him I love him, but I don't think I ever told him just how much.

Life can be short, anything can happen, your life can change in seconds, I have always appreciated and loved my baby brother, I could have lost him today, but by some miracle I didn't, so I vow to never take my time with any of my loved ones for granted ever again. I vow that they will always know how much I love them, and how they have made a difference in my life.

I have the best siblings in the world. Thank God he gave them to me.

 

[Elevationist]

Oh wow. That is terrible, but thank God he is okay. This is particularly scary to me, as I too work as a civilian on a military base, at the Marine Corps Air Station in Beaufort, SC. Just wow.

 

[mandy2012]

Your first trip? That is super exciting.
My knee is doing great, thanks for the concern, PT is making stronger, I should be all set for the world. I am being optimistic though, I know I will need to take time and rest but as long as I'm at Disney it won't really matter.
Thank you for reading and for all your compliments.

Yep its my first trip to WDW but I live in California and I live an hour away from Disneyland and I go there a lot. I've always wanted to go to WDW though and for Christmas, what a better time to go!

So So sad

 

[DONTMINDME]

You have no reason to feel guilty. I feel horrible for the families of the victims but every life is precious and your brothers is as well so don't feel guilty that he wasn't a victim. He's a survivor and you were give a great gift. Time!!!!! Use it well. We don't always get the chance to say thank you for all we have and you have been blessed with an incredible family and great circle of friends whom care about you. No guilt need just thankfulness. We are lucky in love!!!!!

 

[DONTMINDME]

BTW he's hot!!!!!!!!

 

[xoprincessmomxo]

Thank God that he's ok! How very scary for you guys. Such a sad situation. Things like this really do make you want to hold those dearest to you even closer.

 

[xoprincessmomxo]

BTW he's hot!!!!!!!!

Oh, I've thought that since she first posted his picture on her first trip report a few years ago.

 

[MadilynnsMomma]

Ty, I am glad to hear that your brother is okay. Such a scary thing to have happen, and don't feel guilty! Your thoughts and prayers are with the other families, and you have every right to be grateful your brother is alive and well!


Sending good thoughts and prayers to Fort Hood.

I am SO glad he is safe honey I heard about the shooting on the news and thought it was so sad and then when I logged on here and read your story I had tears down my face! I was so worried to begin with as I thought you were going to say something bad had happened to him, god forbid Whenever I hear bad stories on the news about shootings in it makes me so sad, but to know that someone I care about has had someone close to them involved with it is so scary, I had shivers down my spine. It really does make you appreciate the things you have and makes you cherish them even more

I too am an only child so I don't know what its like to have brothers and sisters but I know how I feel about my parents and husband and spikey our pooch and my grandma (who sadly passed) and can only imagine that its the same as brothers / sisters. I'm so glad that you have wonderful family members in your life

 

[disneyaddicted]

Oh wow. That is terrible, but thank God he is okay. This is particularly scary to me, as I too work as a civilian on a military base, at the Marine Corps Air Station in Beaufort, SC. Just wow.

It was a huge shock. Matt has said to me not even a month ago as he was processing soldiers for deployment that he wouldn't be surprised if someday someone snapped and a tragedy would happen. He said it was so sad listening to some of the soldiers having to leave their families for the second and even third time. I pray something like this doesn't happen again. My prayers are with you Billie, be safe.

Yep its my first trip to WDW but I live in California and I live an hour away from Disneyland and I go there a lot. I've always wanted to go to WDW though and for Christmas, what a better time to go!

You know I lived in Riverside Ca, for a year and never got to go to Disneyland, the ex said it was for kids.

You have no reason to feel guilty. I feel horrible for the families of the victims but every life is precious and your brothers is as well so don't feel guilty that he wasn't a victim. He's a survivor and you were give a great gift. Time!!!!! Use it well.

We are lucky in love!!!!!

After talking to my mom and my sister they said they kind of felt the same way too, that it was natural to feel relieved that it wasn't our family suffering from such a tragic loss. All we can do is pray for those families.
Thank you for your kind words.

BTW he's hot!!!!!!!!

Ha Ha, he is quite the looker.

Thank God that he's ok! How very scary for you guys. Such a sad situation. Things like this really do make you want to hold those dearest to you even closer.

Exactly, and count my blessings too. I will no longer cpomplain about the distance between Matt and I, I will always be grateful that I can at least pick up the phone and call him.

Oh, I've thought that since she first posted his picture on her first trip report a few years ago.

unfortunately he knows he's good looking too.

Ty, I am glad to hear that your brother is okay. Such a scary thing to have happen, and don't feel guilty! Your thoughts and prayers are with the other families, and you have every right to be grateful your brother is alive and well!

Thank you, I agree with everything you said.

I am so sorry if my post was a little misleading, I should have posted first thing that Matt was safe and then told the story.
My siblings are my best friends, I couldn't imagine life without them. Bo was so shaken that we couldn't even talk about it until today. But we have all chilled out, I think it's really starting to hit Matt now just how close to home this really hit, he hasn't been back to work yet and I think he is nervous to go back. I wish I could be there to hug him, but his wife is such a strong person, she will get him through this.

 

[disneyaddicted]

I am officially at 24 days. The time is literally melting away. I have made a few more neccessary purchases for the trip, like batteries for my camera, it doesn't take recharable batteries and the batteries are 10 bucks a piece, for my last trip I brought 5 batteries and I used them all, so I want to have more then 5 this time. so far I have 3, ugh! I need to get back to work!!!!
My physical Therapist said at this point I am not ready to go back to work, but we still have 10 days to get there, he requested another 8 PT sessions, I thought I was done with those.
I have mailed my mom and Janis the Ultimate Disney packing list so they can get started on their stuff now too. Janis is spending the week at my Mom's house, it's hunting season so right now they are hunting widows, so they keep eachother company and work on quilts and what not.
Mom said she got those motion sickness wrist bands, she picked up a pair for me too, I am hoping that they will allow me to ride some simulated rides without feeling queezy on them. It's never stopped me from riding before, and normally 15 minutes after the ride I feel pretty normal again, but it would be nice to be able to experience the ride without any queeziness. I need to call Marzi and have her get a pair too. She gets sick if there's too many curves in the side walk she is walking on.

I ordered the planning DVD a while ago, I thought for sure it would have been here by now, I'm hoping my mom gets hers before the trip, it's kind of useless to have it after the trip.

Mom keeps changing her mind about what she is most excited for, somedays it's certain rides, somedays it's the food, today it's the 3-D shows, so I guess she is just excited for all of it.

WalMart has some nice Disney stuff in their Christmas aisle, I was so tempted to get a few things but I didn't, I want to save my $$$$ for actual shopping at Disney.
I just want to add....

HAPPY 41 YEAR ANNIVERSARY MOM AND DAD!!!!

 

[heartofdisney]

Oh Ty,I just read your last two entries.I wanted to reach thru the computer and give you a hug when I read about your brother and Ft. Hood.It is such a sad tragedy in the first place,but even more so to those who have been affected by it. I am so glad to hear that your brother is alright! That is so scary! And you are very right...our time with our loved ones is so very precious,and we should never take one moment for granted! I have learned this lesson as well,and once it hits you in a hard way,it is one you never forget about.

Also want to wish a Happy Anniverssary to your parents. Your mom is going to have an incredible time in Disney! How exciting that is it only a little more then 3 weeks away now! I love the anticipation of a trip!
My daughter Kaitlyns birthday was on the 7th too. She turned 17. Talk about teenage drama! It involved jealousy as well...and it is such a shame,because her birthday didn't end on a good note because of it.I think teen age girls are much worse then teen boys..I work with teen boys,and they are much easier to deal with in my opinion!

 

[ILMICKEY]

Oh Ty, I'm so sorry you had to go through that. We worry enough about our loved ones anyway and for that to happen. God was definitely looking out for him that day!
It really makes me mad (another word fits in there but this is disboard acceptable) that we can't go to work, go shopping, go to school without worrying some freakin phsyco is going to loose it and shoot it up! What is going on with this world. It so gets my dander up!
I'm so happy he is okay!

Ooooooh, it's getting so close! I'm as excited as you are. You are going to have such a wonderful time. Did you get your paperwork yet?

I received a special package yesterday! I cried when I got it. Yes, cried darn it! I immediately put it in and watched some of it. Those kid are quite the rockers. Very very good. Jim is pretty funny. I think he scared my husband. Hee hee. Then I saw you. I was like that's Ty, that's Ty! I watched some of Disney too. Jay was in the kitchen when the parade was on. He came in and told me to quit crying. Again, I was! He said he was going to tell you, I said you would totally understand.

I'm going to watch the whole thing tomorrow! Nobody will be here to bother me.

41 years is a long time to be married...to the same person, my parents have been through so much together, I know they will be together for another 41 or more.

Boys are so much easier to raise then girls, they don't fuss over clothes and hair and they manage to avoid drama. But I love Reese regardless, her girly antics good and bad are what makes her so endearing.

Ooooooh, it's getting so close! I'm as excited as you are. You are going to have such a wonderful time. Did you get your paperwork yet?

nope, no paper work yet, I think if I get down to less then 3 weeks I might give a little bit of a worry, but there's still time. I just need to have at least a week to get my Mom and Janises ME tags to them.

Yay, your DVD got there safe. I'm surprised you got it so fast. Yup, they are quite the rockers, but then again if anybody can aprreciate a good head banger it's you. I think Jim makes a pretty good front man, he loves being front and center, so does Reese but she hates talking tothe crowd.
Tell your DH no worries about Jim scaring him, he scares me too sometimes.

I thought you would enjoy some Disney, I cry too when I watch my old Disney vacation DVD's. Yes, I totally understand your tears and there is no shame in that either.

Honey you have nothing to apologise for I'm so pleased for you that he is safe So many thoughts must be going through Matt's head at the moment, I can't even imagine what it must be like to try and return to work after something like that has happened It's good that he's got a wife to support him through all this as well, it must have been so scary for her as well.

YAAAAAY for your trip being so close When do you normally start packing? I normally start a couple of days before the trip but i've already started gathering things together on our sofa in the spare room - just things that i've bought that I wont need until the trip. I can't wait until we all start packing and posting photos of all the mess that hits our houses during the packing process

Batteries are so expensive arent they!! I'm sorry that you still arent able to return to work and have got to have more PT appointments Just try and hold in there, i'm sure you will be fighting fit very soon and then you'll have a wonderful trip

I just avoid certain rides, ok, quite a lot of rides that I know I will regret going on because i'd either pass out or be sick I'm happy in the shops though so all is good

I hope the dvd arrives soon. Has your packet come yet? Mine still hasnt Awww bless your mum for being so excited!! Well done for resisting the walmart goodies, you are so much stronger at dealing with temptation than me Happy Anniversary to your parents and wow what an amazing length of time they have been together

I love taking naps, and my dear little Falula loves taking naps with me, all I have to say is "let's sleep in the big bed," and the dear pup is tripping over herself to get up the stairs. Today was no different, she prances and tries to climb up on the bed by herself, she really is so dear and so close to my heart. She snuggles up to me and I pull the covers up, it isn't long until we are both sound asleep.
But all it takes to stir Falula from a deep sleep is the sound of a kitchen cuboard opening and paper rustling, she abandons me pretty quickly, after her belly is full she comes back to the room and wimpers until I pick her up and put her in the bed.
When I woke from my nap today I realized that Falula didn't return to me to finish her nap, I figured by the smells coming from the kitchen Kent was cooking up something good and Falula was afraid to leave his side for fear she might miss out on a floor morsel.
I go down stairs and the kitchen is empty, I call for Falula and she doesn't come. so I go outside and there she is and to my screaming dismay my daughter had dyed the poor dog pink.

What in the world did you do I shouted.

Reese: She's pink
Me: I know that, I can see that but why is she pink?
Reese: I thought she would be cuter if she were pink, don't you like it?
Me: No, dogs aren't supposed to be pink.
Reese: Yea Mom and mice aren't supposed to talk but you still love Mickey.
Me: I still love Falula, but dam! she's pink now.
Reese: I thought you would like it.
Me: I can't take her out in public anymore.
Reese: that's a bad thing? At least now people will see her pinkness before they see her bat ears and rat tail.

Me: I'm washing it out this week.
Reese: Fine, what do you think of purple?

I had to quit talking to her then.
The pink dog is growing on me, I laughed all through supper just looking downat this cartoon looking dog. But I told Reese not to do it again and then Jim said, :We should have gone with my idea instead...cover her in Barbque sauce and slow rotisserie her."

This poor dog, I'm afraid to leave her alone for the 9 days I'm at Disney, there's no telling what I will come home to.

This poor dog, I'm afraid to leave her alone for the 9 days I'm at Disney, there's no telling what I will come home to.

OMG!!! I would have heart failure if someone did that to spikey! I can kinda see the funny side like you said 'cartoon dog' but the poor little cutie!!! and poor you, although, taking her for a walk will be quite amusing with everyone looking at her

YAAAAAY for your trip being so close When do you normally start packing? I normally start a couple of days before the trip but i've already started gathering things together on our sofa in the spare room - just things that i've bought that I wont need until the trip. I can't wait until we all start packing and posting photos of all the mess that hits our houses during the packing process


I hope the dvd arrives soon. Has your packet come yet? Mine still hasnt Awww bless your mum for being so excited!! Well done for resisting the walmart goodies, you are so much stronger at dealing with temptation than me Happy Anniversary to your parents and wow what an amazing length of time they have been together

I messed up my dates, now I am officially at 24 days, I stay up all night and sleep till the afternoon I sometimes forget what day it is.
No I still haven't gotten my packet. But I have time yet before I need to worry, really all I need is the ME packet and I was told that if forsomereason it comes to late then not to worry because ME will have us in their computers and all we have to do is give them our baggage claim ticket and they will still pick up our bags and deliver them to the resort.

The temptation to shop is really getting bad. I do plan to hit up the mall this Friday and start on some Christmas shopping, I will feel better while I'm at Disney if I know that I at least have put a dent in the shopping list. I have a few things for Reese, I know what jim wants now so that make sit easier. Reese is getting hard to shop for, she ends up returning half of what I get her so this year she is getting alot of gift cards. She'll love that though.

Hi Ty!
I followed you over here from DizneyDawnz PTR. I just subscribed and I loooove your story at the begining about Marzi. So sweet! Like your name, we also have a Ty in our house, but he's my son, not a girl. Did your mom really name you Ty?
I especially love that your mom is a specialist in fart songs, she and my DH would get along swimmingly, he's a fart song extraordinar, shoot he's a anything song extraordinar for that matter, he makes up songs for just about anthing! We call him Mr. Incredible....well, because he looks like Mr. Incredible and, well, he is Mr. Incredible. He even drives a little blue car that he practically has to unfold out of,(he's 6'5-250 lbs.) he calls the car the "Turd Azul."
Can't wait to catch up on your report. By the way, you dont look old enough to have teens, and your one year younger than I am! Sheesh! Where's the justice! See you here and over at Dawnz. Gotta go read!
