DIS/DISUnplugged/Dreams December Event Info – DISapalooza (continued)

[Dodie]

Wait? Jaime has a surprise grandpuppy? Just look at that face. I'm sure he hasn't had ANY accidents that you don't know about.

 

[dpuck1998]

Woman what are you doin' in my bed!?!?!?!?!


Oh, wait.....

Don, can I borrow some music......

bow chicka bow...

This is such a wonderful board. Full of support and kindness. I told Jen this the other day on FB, but you all have been a Godsend during this deployment. You've given me smiles when I've needed them and remembrences that things could be worse, and that I'm not the only person in the world going through hard times. Bless you all and have a great day!!

It's like I'm standing at the edge of a swimming pool debating on whether or not to jump in.

Put down the deposit for yourself, you can add mom & the kids later.

 

[aspen37]

Oh, great, Don and Paul get to collect wives, I get to collect kids!

I'll see your photo of a random puppy and raise you one that hasn't peed in my house in 43 hours (and counting!)

Nope but see below...



I'll raise your "surprise grand puppy" (Who you think hasn't piddled in the house in 43 hours...)

And raise you a diva and a jock pup lounging in mid morning sun....

I think all of the puppies are so cute.

Lounging??? You want lounging???

Good of you to add yourself to the list of enablers....

Yes - this is Alice.

Apparently "You can have a puppy once we're settled in the new house" translates in Meggie-speak to "When the moving truck pulls away, you can have the boyfriend bring over the puppy you bought a month ago and didn't tell me about."


Go ahead - laugh. I can see that it's funny. I'm not laughing about it yet myself, but I can see that it is funny.

Lounging doesn't begin to explain these two - poor Kelly is always on the bottom. Her little sister is gonna love her to death one of these days.

Welcome to the DIS Alice

Since it's puppy posting time....

Paris and Noel

I think my mom would be sad if I had her out to take care of the boys and didn't take her with me. She would say, "but I got my passport and everything!" Then we'd ALL be on the boat!

Y'all are enablers, that's what you are!!!
(Thanks for the support!)

You're welcome! That's what friends are for

Yep, that's another plan I have. I'm still not sold on taking the boys out of school and having a 3 week xmas break (taking them out of school isn't the issue, it's having them home for 3 weeks!). But my mom has hinted about maybe coming with, and she wants the boys to come...The deposit opens up so many possibilities!

I'm sorry, Jaime, but

If you take the kids on the Cruise, Disney has them entertained for XX (insert number of days of the trip) number of days of the Chrismas Break, then their Christmas gifts will help for the left over days.


For me, I have already told my boss, I am taking the entire month of December 2010 off. Granted with our week long holiday from Christmas to New Years, it will be only three weeks of vacation, but it sounds better when I say I am taking the entire month off from work. As I plan to spend 10 days at the parks in addition to the cruise. X # of days before & X # of days after, I just haven't decided on the split yet.

I booked the same. I can't wait to see some photos of the forward facing oceanview rooms.

I looked up my cabin and it doesn't face forward. It is in the front of the ship but faces starboard. I debated whether to contact my agent and have her switch my cabin but decided to keep what I have. I chose the 9A over the 9B for location vs view. I prefer to be on a mid or higher deck instead of a really low deck like deck 2. The windows look huge in the pictures. I hope this is what they are really going to be like.

I wish I had that much vacation time.....and the wallet to afford it!

I have already started saving for the trip, any extra un-accounted for funds go to this account.

 

[tickledtink33]

I think you might have the upper hand here.
Let's see I can't bribe Kim with anything. She is the head person on the room, and the credentials are being sent to her.

Hey Kim, I think you should bargain a payment for ABD out of Anna.....

I am open to bribery.

 

[tlcoke]

I currently have 35 days accrued and can have as many as 46+ days. Since I just used 12 days from my October Trip, I will have to work on building it back up to max. I get 2+ days a month and am allowed to build it up to 2 times what we get in one year up to a maximum of 352 hours. (our days are based on a 7.5 hour work day)

ah- that is so nice! I can't imagine how hard the deployment is on you and your family! hang in there and know you have lots of friends here supporting you.

THIRTEEN?, Michelle!! Jeepers!

LOL- i only lay claim to the 2yo and one hubby! the rest are my parents, Dsis, BIL and her two kids, other Dsis and her new DH, one great aunt, one second cousin and her nephew. BF was coming too, but got married and bowed out! pick her new DH over us? pffttt! Unfortunately TSM is the only DIS event we are doing, since this was really our family vacay we have had planned for 2 years, just so happened DAP coincided. I almost wish our family vacay was at another time, so I could come do DAP alone (or with the cougars! lol). at least i'll see everyone at TSM! i am blessed to be able to go at all. gotta look on the bright side, right?

I've just about got the kids done myself. I say that now, until I go to Target again...

for the Cruise!

ah Target will be the death of me. I really should make sure DH has bought stock in it.

I don't have any kids, but I did go without DP. He wouldn't have enjoyed himself, thereby feeling the need to make me not enjoy myself. He has told me that he plans on never attending a DIS function with me, as I would embarrass him.

That being said (out of nowhere), I don't know that I could not bring my kids, but I had a heck of a good time as a solo adult!

i'm with you- i am still considering PCC 2.0, haven't booked yet, due to potentially (or hopefully) being preggo. But if i go, i will definitely leave DH behind. He would just ruin it for me and complain the entire time about us crazy Dis'ers. He can stay home and play WoW instead (yeah, my DIS to his WoW and Warhammer!). sometimes that arrangement works best- each person enjoys themselves separately, hey, we all need 'alone' time!

Well I am off for most of the day today!
Johnny has a dentist appointment.
I have a ton of laundry to do.
The fence guy is here, and the post hole guy.
The holes are being drilled and the posts for our fence are going in today as well.
This should really upset the neighbors when they come home today!
Sorry don't like those neighbors.
She won't be able to open her van doors.

sounds like a busy day Kat! we need a new fence so bad. I should post up pics of how awful it is, but i am too embarrassed! lol

holy cow Tracey, i am so jealous! that sounds awesome.

i was thinking at lunch after seeing the pic of your latest meet, how you need a tag......something about the official dis meet coordinator. Everywhere you travel, you bring us all together!

 

[Launchpad11B]

Howdy peeps. Surgery went well. Lots of pain but nothing I can't handle. Thanks for all the well wishes. You guys are the best. Hopefully soon I'll be back to doing this..........
