Did you put the Pull-Ups in the trunk? No!?! Did you?!? No!?! Eeek!

[lilpixiebabe101]

I didn't have too much to catch up on with yours... no offense Ashley but I am a little thankful for your work schedule at this moment! I hope that your not working too hard though and are getting things done and are healthy!

Haha one less TR to keep up with Heather? It's ok I know what you mean. I feel bad not so much for not posting on mine, but for missing out on real life happenings spread out on all of y'alls between the updates.

I've been following along after I somehow stumbled into your PTR, and now I'm hooked! Looking forward to reading more.

I need to do a RL update to let everyone know what's going on, but more updates will be forth coming. Basically comp had to be wiped so I have to transfer iphone pictures back on.

 

[Leger13]

Looks like I haven't missed anything thank goodness!

 

[momabaarjo]

So glad you did not lose your pictures!

 

[lilpixiebabe101]

Sooo sorry for my long absence.

A.) RL took hold. Plus I guess still in post Disney funk a bit as well. At least Wednesday I'll have my first unscheduled day off in I don't even wanna think about how long.. probably September? October? Excluding Holidays that I had no option but to be off days I took part of the day off because something had to be done that day.

B.) My laptop got a real awesome virus. Yeah wouldn't even let me CTRL + ALT + DEL to get to task manager. It was even hiding task manager from me. So Buddy restored it back in December to a previous restore in November. Thought everything was good. About two weeks ago it stopped letting me open programs. Not even Skype or Mozilla would open. Needless to say, Buddy looked at me and asked if there was anything on here I couldn't replace.. My reply "Not really. It just might take hours, days, weeks to get it all back to the laptop I've put information on for over 2 years." Buddy just rolled his eyes at me and got work. Him and his roommate wiped it and started putting windows back on it... The roommate and I decided to go to MacDonald's for everyone... The two remaining at the house didn't notice the laptop was not plugged in and died in the middle of recovery mode... So needless to say I thought my computer was going to be gone and dead for about 2 hours until they figured out how to get it all to fix and reset up and rerun the install. Then the recovery of all my favorites, passwords, etc started. And just last night at like 2am figured out how to get my pictures back on. On accident I might add. (Phone is jailbroken, so to resynce I needed the pictures off it just in case wiping the jailbreak when I resynce wipes everything.)


So now on to the update!

We last left off in the hotel in Tallahassee. With a very small supply of pullups . So we decided to eat breakfast in the hotel. It was a sit down pay for buffet. So we figured it would be pretty good right?.......... SOOO wrong.. Worst meal we had all trip by far. It was all greasy and most of the food was undercooked. Mom said for the money she paid for the room night and what the breakfast alone cost the food should have been about 20 times better.

So we load up the car and hit the road with one objective in mind.. Walmart or Target scouting! I could live without a 2nd pair of jeans, but we had to have those pull ups, so we weren't being picky! 100 miles go by... 200 miles go by... Road Ninja app is working overtime trying to find someplace right off an exit to get pullups!

Finally Road Ninja is successful! 2 exits ahead is suppose to be a Target! Mom drops me off at the door, so I can run in while they are filling up. I go grab a raspberry lemonaide, a can of cashews, a pair of amazing mossimo jeans, and a small pack of pull ups. Keep in mind I have an unopened 56 count box back home and she's #1 potty trained... usually.. so I didn't think we would need but a handful for the 4-5 days we'd be gone.

So on to more driving.

Alexa had slept through all of this, so after they pick me up she wakes up... and proceeds to steal my drink and my cashews. Gotta love being a mom .

Finally after what seems like forever we see my second favorite sight on the planet!

And then...

And then...

I'm literally bouncing around on the seat, so excited.. Alexa is going nuts cause I'm going nuts.

We get out of the car by the lobby to check in, and my mom looks at me and says "Your home. Are you happy now, baby?." I nod yes and give her the biggest hug. She tells me "Even if Alexa doesn't enjoy anything (yeah right), the smile on your face right now was worth the trip." Love my mom (who by the way, I had to go bring to the dentist the morning cause she was drugged out on valium for her dental work to be done. Haha.. I had to drag her away from watching Full House).

We got checked in and of course I forgot to get Alexa's first visit button. And forgot to take a picture of our room number. But we were in the building to the left of the Hippy Dippy pool. In the Baloo and Mogli building.

So think about the amount of stuff that we have for two adult women, a 6'2" 210 two Under Armor shifts under every regular shirt wearing 18 year old guy, and a drama queen princess 3 year old..... It was a lot. And Joseph decided we were only making one trip from the car to the room. He regretted this later.. but not enough to decide the same thing when we were carrying everything back out to the car a few days later. I held his arms out and said "load me up."

We finally get everything hauled to the room. It's 1:45 PM and we are now starving and dinner ADR's aren't until 6:15.

Where do we end up? Do we starve until 6:15? Do we really end up popping open a glow stick within 10 minutes of walking into our first Disney park?

 

[swwake]

You're there! So glad you updated. Now, about those glowsticks...

 

[afwdwfan]

Sorry about your computer... that's never fun. I'm glad you didn't lose your pictures or anything you couldn't replace though.

I'm glad you were finally able to find a Target to get your jeans and pull ups.

That's awesome that your mom was hooked on Full House when she was drugged.

I'm glad you made it safely and got checked in. I can't wait to see what the plans are for the rest of the day.

 

[annmarieda]

Great update!!! You will have to remind me what day you arrived

Can't wait for more.

 

[lilpixiebabe101]

You're there! So glad you updated. Now, about those glowsticks...

Yep! Yay! I think I might get at least one more update done tonight... we shall see.. I won't make any promises though!

Tried for a Tammie cliff hanger. Not sure it had the same effect!

Me too! I figured you all would wait instead of me rushing and chancing losing my pictures!

She was ridiculous. I was like Mom come on, I have to come back and get ready for work. And she'd take another step away from the TV. And I'd tell her again and she'd back up another step. I told her she could watch all the full house she wanted after she got back home lol!

Great update!!! You will have to remind me what day you arrived

Can't wait for more.

We got to pop Saturday Dec 17th.

 

[Leger13]

Hooty Hoo!! You finally made it!! And thank God for finding a Target off the exit.

 

[amandaw]

That's awful about your computer! I would've been freaked out! But, glad to hear it turned out ok.

And Yay! Y'all made it to Disney.

Can't wait to hear what y'all did first! I would've had to hit up the food court & get something to eat!

 

[momabaarjo]

Yay, you made it to WDW with some pullups. I am so with Joseph...I like to do everything in 1 trip to the car no matter how many things I drop along the way!

Glowsticks...guess what stayed in my suitcase the entire trip and never saw the light of day! Kinda like those ponchos!

 

[shocky5]

Hooray for pull-ups!!

I know the bouncing in your seat feeling of excitement! Love the sweet story of your mom enjoying your excitement!

Glad you got your computer fixed up and I'm sorry you have had such a crazy work schedule!

You are so lucky that Buddy does computers because it costs us $150 to wipe out the comp and reprogram and you have to pay extra for certain programs!

I love your mom's comments... I am honestly on edge to see if that was enough pull ups by the end of the trip! I am always a buy more now and give the extras away type girl! And we never used the glow sticks- like Tammie I forgot that I had one pack for everyday! Oh my another one with the cliff hangers... Just kidding! I like the suspense!
