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

[jeanigor]

Shelly if you complain about the weather, then we are going to have to figure out a way for you to spend a winter in the -30's or -40's.
Only then will you be given the right to complain about the weather!

-30s and -40s??

I agree with Katherine. No complaining about above freezing temps!!!!

We used to be regular visitors to B&C. But then we tried Dolphin Fountain. Hard to believe, but IMHO their burgers are better than B&C. Oh, and their shakes are great too.

Unfortunately they don't take the DDE/TIW card, but they do offer a discount for DVC members.

They have real food at B&C? I thought you only went there for a Kitchen Sink or No Way, José?

Cherry pie is first, followed by a strawberry/ rurbarb pie.
After that well it's pie!

47 more posts to hit 4000!
Wonder if I can manage that before we leave?

I like rhubarb pie. Not strawberry rhubarb, just plain rhubarb.
Yes you can make it before you leave!!!!
And holy cow! Where in the world did you store 53 pies?

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I'm off to shower and then make the veggie tray before I tackle the turkey.

Man, I wish I knew what I was doing! This should be a very interesting meal...

However, floors are washed, table is set, shopping complete. And it's just my sissters, so if they don't like it, I can tell them where to stick it (that's right, even on Thanksgiving, I'm making friends an influencing people!)

I'm going to try desperately during Grace not to think of what's coming up in 2 weeks - I'll either burst into happy tears or kick everyone out and start packing!

I got asked by each of the three tables at dinner last night where I was going next month. I didn't bother to tell anyone about the other trips....

Happy Turkey Day!!!

We made a last minute decision to go to my Mom's after all. We were just planning to make our own little Thanksgiving meal here at home, but Matthew decided that we needed to go to Mom and Dad's today. My sister and her family won't be there, but my brother and the baby will! My sis-in-law has to work later on today (she works in a nursing home). We're going to take the PS3 and all of the Rockband accessories with us for something to do while we wait for turkey to cook...

Getting ready for the parade and to go through the ads for tomorrow before we head up to my parent's. Anyone traveling today, we wish you safe travels! And to all of my very dear friends...you mean the world to me. Thank you for being my source of support this last year. It's been tough on me...but I'm so thankful to have an amazing circle of friends to help pull me through when I need it.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Have to work tomorrow so doubt I will be doing any BF shopping. Truthfully I don't need anything. Pretty much all of my holiday shopping is done except for a couple of office gifts. Hope everyone gets great deals on the stuff they want. Gotta get packing because it's getting close.

Working is no excuse! I am at work. I went out this morning. GameStop, Best Buy, Target, Meijer and the Mall. Work is no excuse!

Christmas is easy for me - Nieces: toys from Disney. Daughters: Best Buy cards. Family: We are doing a "As Seen on TV" theme. Bring one "ASoTV" item (valued at $20 or less) and we pick blindly from the pile (stealing is allowed).


And I got myself a trip to Disney (or 2).



(Oh, okay, 3.)



(And a podcast cruise.)



I'm very generous.

Funny I got myself similar presents this year....

How's your finger this morning Jaime?

My day tops yours I think - I am off today. So far I have unloaded the dishwasher, done one load of laundry, prepared my bank deposit and have eaten breakfast. My excitement for the day is going to the bank and dropping off recycleables.

Good morning everyone.

I will be hanging out at home today. I think I will start packing for DAP today.
Jaime how does your finger feel?

Thanks for the concern - it looks good... I think it's closed. Hurts like heck and ugly, but seems like I'll pull through.

For those of you not on FB, I cut the top of my left index finger (NOT my TSM hand) pretty badly last night. Probably could have had a stitch, but I wasn't going to the ER at 8:00 on Thanksgiving for a stitch.

 

[jeanigor]

DITTO on the traveling! My sister drove out from NoVA. It was well worth it to cook and clean not to have to get back in the car afterwards.

Every time you guys say NoVA, I expect it to be followed with Scotia.

Good evening everyone. My family has left. I am leaving to go shopping at 3!!!

My sister in arms! We left at three this morning and yesterday morning.

Everyone must be headed to sleep in preperation for the sales, working the sales, or just plain working.

Good Friday to everyone!

I fit two out of those three....

Morning all! I'm off to work for 3 hours, then buying some first aid supplies and a couch. I know, such an exciting life, right?

A couch? Don't you mean a bed fit for (insert proper regal title pertaining to moi, here)????

Glad your finger is doing well. At least two people with hand wounds at TSMM...:dislike:

A couch? Don't you mean a bed fit for (insert proper regal title pertaining to moi, here)????

Yes, I do. Today I finally actually purchase the couch/bed. TODD's bed. Despite the fact that it will have to also be Steph's room when she comes home to visit, it is Todd's bed. Whenever he wants/needs it.

No one was telling me what I wanted to hear...

 

[AnneR]

At least your are honest

Please keep it nice and clean, last thing you need is to get it or the surrounding skin infected.

 

[jeanigor]

I promise to let her use it whenever she needs, too. And Alice too if she feels the need.

No one was telling me what I wanted to hear...

I wouldn't go to the ER either. I have spent too many (holi)days there. Keep it clean.

 

[AnneR]

I wouldn't go to the ER either. I have spent too many (holi)days there.

I have a brother who routinely split his head and required stitches.

My most vivid ER memory is when DD15 was 5 - I was packing for a two week beach vacation, she and her sister were jumping on the couch - backwards she went. Having experienced head wounds before - I got pressure on right away and off we went.

They did not take too long to see us but because I had had pressure on the wound, it was not bleeding - the techie told me it would not need stitches - being the mom I am I KNEW BETTER and said I would like to have it checked out. Now at that time DD15's hair was long enough for her to sit on it, so there she sat, no pressure on the wound on the little table. The doctor came in, thinking hysterical Mom - picked her up to move her slightly and I went into full panic thinking I had missed a different wound - there was a massive puddle on the table - it just went down her hair - yep - 5 stitches - Mom does know better - made them use the nylon because I was going to be at the beach and I did not want a thread that could harbor bacteria.

Not when I wanted to be at the ER but it was the right thing to do.

Morning friends!

Jaime, I am glad to hear that your finger is doing better. Don't forget to Neosporin that sucker.

I just got word that my waiting list for DAP came through!!!! YAY! Originally, all I could get was one standard AKLV room and one savannah so they waitlisted me. I SO did not want to have to change mid-stay. I'm now in the same savannah room all weekend! Hooray!

I was REALLY tempted to go out for the Black Friday sales here today. We're buying my brother a computer and Walmart had a really good deal on a package for only $398. It wasn't a crappy brand either. We never made final decisions yesterday so I didn't go out at 4 a.m. to get it. I'm not concerned though. They're predicted massive sales all the way through Christmas! Besides, I much rather stay in my jammies and Snuggie with a book!

That's the same finger I once pruned to the bone. Was deadheading mums, wasn't paying attention....chop. I didn't get stitches, although I really should have gotten some medical attention (those pruning shears were pretty old!). Still have no sensation along one side of that finger, but it healed. That was about 20 years ago.

I don't know why I felt the need to share that! Keep it clean and covered. You know the drill.

I am holding off actual packing until I here a more firm weather forecast - but my packing list is ready.

I'm going to Las Vegas after WDW. It is always in the 30's at night that time of year in Vegas so I will need some warmer clothes anyway. I don't want to forget anything so if I start now I should be fine.

From my experience, you think it may be closed, but it is still healing. Be sure to keep the bandage on tightly so it stays closed. If not, it will open!

Since there was nothing that I actually needed I opted to stay in bed until my usual 5:50am. I gotta be a little good because I am planning on getting a Kindle in the next couple of months. I have 5 more hardcover books at home to read and when I am finished I will order my Kindle. Kevin convinced me to get the Kindle 2. I think it will be more portable than the DX and from what Kevin says it sounds like I will be able to see the screen just fine. I am very happy about this as the Kindle 2 is half the price of the DX.

And what a gigantic coincidence, I also have Disney trips and a podcast cruise as presents this year.

 

[mainegal]

I was up at dawn and walked to the shopping center. Went to Penney's, KMart, Staples, WalMart, Home Depot and a few smaller stores. Came home empty handed. A pretty succesful trip!

I was surprised that KMart had many very long lines and WalMart had no lines at all. This was around 7:00 AM. I was too late for the Penney's Mickey snow globe, which was good. I only have two now and really do not want another "collection". I also missed out on the $1.00 pointsettias.

We did have a good breakfast out.

Returned home, small nap and put turkey in the oven.
Off to the gym now.

So, I am officially behind and am just now writing down my DAP plans. I'm only going to be there for two and a half days, but there's just SO MUCH going on.

 

[NancyIL]

No Black Friday shopping for me. In fact - it's almost noon and I am still sitting at the PC in my nightgown and robe! I will exercise and shower soon, as I plan to do errands this afternoon.

A good friend of ours has been critically ill with pneumonia from H1N1 and in ICU for almost 3 weeks. That is not something I would wish on anyone - especially one of my kids. Therefore, my daughters and I plan to get the H1N1 vaccine at our medical clinic this afternoon.

The consensus is that to fit it all in - we will need to give up sleep.
