Good luck on your test I have had the surgery for sinuses and let me tell you well.worth.it!! I used to suffer terribly with sinus infections, it always seemed I had one and was always on antibiotics. Then I had the surgery and I couldn't believe the difference!! Hope it works for you too!!!

That's good to hear! When I was at Urgent Care, the dr. said that it is a great idea especially since I'm working with little snotty kids who don't stay home when they are sick!

I will keep my fingers crossed that the snow isn't too bad and your test stays on! Sending tons of good luck vibes to you!

I'll be checking everyone's updates tomorrow! I'm hoping to for a trip in July, one because I love WDW in the summer because of all the late hours and two because one of my closest friends/former wdw roomie is going to be visiting from CA and I haven't seen her in a year + !!

Good luck on the Praxis! I just know you will do well!

I would LOVE to have the night and day in a backpack!!! Do you feel like the white gets dirty often because that is my only fear with that. The backpack I carry now is getting pretty warn but not warn enough that I'd pay full price for the night/day backpack. After cramming things into the mini travel bag, I should have used the $20 on the backpack

 

[TinkerbellLuvr7]

HEY EVERYONE!!! Just wanted to let you know we made it to PA and back safely! I'll be back tomorrow for a full update + pics. I can't believe we're leaving for FL on Thurs I got maybe 2 hours of sleep last night which I blame on the fact that I was super anxious to get my test over with but I'll explain that more tomorrow! Thanks for the well wishes and I'll be back tomorrow so STAY TUNED!

 

[DVCWDWMEMBER]

Got all caught up. Wow I cannot believe what happened to you at POP. Glad that you did receive some compensation for it.

We will be staying at WL January 2012. Looking forward to is since it has been several years. Your trip is fast approaching. Can't wait to read about it. Sounds like you will have a great time

Thanks I couldn't believe that someone actually called to talk about the issues in the letter I had sent! I do need to call her back and thank her for the tickets!

I would love to say that the white didn't get dirty & that the white washed out great, but unfortunately I can't. I used it a lot last summer. The white is dingy & washing it did not help much .

Good timing on the finishing of the Dec TR - you will be making notes for your March TR so soon!

I will have to remember to ask for late checkout - I wonder how that works with DVC...

How did you do on the Praxis? Sorry I was behind and didn't get to wish you luck!

Thanks!!

The only issue we had with late check-out was at OKW (go figure!). We were told that since we weren't DVC we couldn't get late check-out for 12 or 1 or at all That was one of the other issues we had with OKW among other things as I've said! All the other resorts, we were given 1pm check-out and I think there was only one time where they said 12pm which was better than nothing especially when you have a late flight.

4 MORE SLEEPS TILL 4 SLEEPS AT WDW!!!!

HAPPY SUNDAY DIS FRIENDS!!!

I finally sat down to type this up and saw it was already 9pm Where did the weekend go?! The loss of 1 hour did not help but what are you going to do?!

I guess I'll start with talking about the test. I got off work early on Friday so we left at 1pm instead of 2pm! We got in PA, checked into our hotel (mom and I), and headed to Eat n' Park for dinner! It's like a Dennys, Bob Evans, Perkins type of restaurant but only unique to PA and some areas in OH and WV. After dinner, we went to DQ for ice cream, yet another thing we don't seem to have in the Cincy area! After our dessert, we went back to the hotel, changed, and went to the hot tub!! We were in bed by 10pm. Did I sleep. Of course not. After 3 months of hard-core studying, I was anxious to get this over with. My alarm went off at 6am with 2 hours of sleep. I got got some breakfast in the lobby, mom took me to my college, and I was right on time. The test was the same as the one I took the past 2 or 3 times. I thought I did a pretty good job and finished with a 1/2 hour left instead of only have 10 mins left like in the Nov test. After I got back to the hotel, I started to look at some of the things I wasn't sure. Some I got right, some I got wrong..go figure.

At 11am, we packed up and left to meet my college roomie + fam for lunch. She was the one whose wedding I was in in Sept. We had lunch AND I got my xmas gifts and birthday gifts!!

(The shirt does not fit..not even close but her 2 aunts, one who passed away, have had b. cancer so the shirt is special to us since I'm very close with her family)

Now Bday!

(Inside was $25 gc for Olive Garden!)

It was a ton of surprises!! After lunch, mom and I headed back to Cincinnati! We did stop at the Outlets on the way back to check out the crocs outlet. I got new black ones and Love THE BAG!!

After we got home and unpacked, we had some early birthday cake that we got in PA at our fav grocery store.

Buster and Bailey, "The Boys", got some ice cream!

Today was nails, tanning, and shopping!! I didn't really get anything for the trip but some odds and ends from Kohls with a 30% off coupon that my roomie gave me yesterday!

NOW TRIP NEWS............
First of all..

I called to add bro onto our room/ddp. It was an extra $275 and $192 of that was just the DDP so hopefully we pick some good meals at our ADRS!

I also called for Cirque tix. I ended up with section 206, row EE, 3 seats on the aisle which I was happy about. It was $194 total for the 3 of us. It was the best she could do but said there might be better options when we get to Will Call to pick ours up/pay for them. It was super easy to do and I had the map on my screen so I could look as she told me sections/rows.

Finally, our schedule has changed!!!!!!!!!!!

Bro was unsure if he would be able to do our 1:15adr at Le Cellier on the 20th because of work at 3 but like MAGIC, I get on wdw.com this morning and BANG.....

11:30am ADR LC on 3/18!!!

So now our dining is:

3/18 11:30 LC
3/19 10:35am Chef Mickeys
3/19 8:35pm Ohana
3/20 12:15pm Coral Reef

Our schedule of course has changed too for the 18th and 20th:

18th:
Epcot (pick a pearl!), break, AK, Epcot (fireworks), Epcot EMH or MK

19th:
Hair appt GF, CR breakfast, break, Cirque, Ohana, and fireworks from Poly

20th:
DHS, Epcot lunch/disney visa photo, break, and MK

That's a pretty rough sketch of what the plan is. As far as rides, with the time we have, we will be doing our favs and that's pretty much it. I've said that since the tix are free for my fam, we don't feel as bad using the pool/taking breaks.

I talked to my CM friend and she said the birthday "surprise" doesn't look like it's going to happen so I'm thinking it was a possible upgrade that's not going to happen since it's busy/spring break..oh well!! I can't wait to get a hopeful new room at POFQ!!!!!

That's it for now!! I'm off to start getting my packing list together!! The next few days are going to be super busy and I can't wait till Thursday!

STAY TUNED FOR DAILY UPDATES!!!!!!!
