DIS Diva's **Old thread**

[tinkermell]

Well I finally was able to get this image on my desktop, and thought I'd share my precious grandchildren with you. This picture does not have my latest granddaughter Francesca in it. Someday, I will try and get her picture posted.

Oh, and this is the beach we go to every year to camp. So this was taken in August.

Thanks everyone, he was too young and he is missed terribly. So hard when someone passes so suddenly, he hadn't even been sick (that we knew of) outside of a mild cold. I remember him at the weirdest times and we talked via PM on FB daily so occasionally I find myself thinking "I need to go reply to Garrett" only to remember that I won't get a response if I do.
Melody your Grandkids are soooooooooooooooooo CUTE!!!!!

It's Wednesday, week is half over, woo hoo!!! Rich is not here again today but he says he will be here tomorrow for sure. That would be nice....lol I feel bad for him though, I know he is in pain and not sleeping much.
I paid bills last night, now I'm basically broke....lol But I get paid again tomorrow and we in the process of selling a non-running car so that will give us a little more money in our pocket, enough to buy our groceries for the month. I want to take half and put it aside for the Diva trip, that would cover my hotel and F! seating and probably my gas too. Oh hey...maybe it would cover the Walk in Walt's Footsteps tour........LOL Or I could just use it to get Cassidy new glasses.....LOL

Mel, your son sounds as busy as you! lol
That pics is adorable!! Love the grandkids. You are so blessed.

Good morning!

Well I am finally ready to get the sweatshirt order in.
Six different styles, two different colors and then you add in all the sizes to each category and it makes for some nervousness. LOL! I've gone through it over and over to make sure it is right.
I'm not complaining at all, just stating facts.

Ordering wearables is a real BLAST sometimes, huh? LOL

Mel- Your grandkids are darling!

 

[VintageDisneyRules]

Mel, I'm a little jealous, I've only got one. Yours are so cute!!!!

 

[tinkermell]

Checks came in today from Tina G. and Wendy C. Thanks ladies!

 

[mommaU4]

Good afternoon, ladies.

Quiet around here....

I spent the morning organizing some closets. Why does it seem the harder I work, the less it looks like I did anything??? Ugh. We have too much stuff. And, I'm not even one of those who keeps a lot of "stuff" around! Oh, well.
Hope y'all are having a good day.


Just a reminder, 4 days left to sign up for the Christmas stocking exchange.

I went through all my Halloween stuff and got rid of quite a bit. Just junky stuff that I haven't used in years. Gave me room for my new item. His head has an orange light inside. He's 6 feet tall and very cool!

Thanks Trudi! But I have seen pictures of your little one too, and she looks pretty darn cute. Now you just need to tell Sarah to get on the band wagon. LOL! Hi Sarah.....

 

[tinkermell]

Thanks to everyone else also! Grandchildren are pretty special, that is for sure!

Today I received a check from Kandace N.
Thanks Kandace!

LOVE him!! I was looking at something similar but we ended up with the creepy scarecrow instead.
Since our van died, I wasn't able to get out and look at any Halloween clearance. Bummer. That's when we usually score our best deals. I wanted some scary pumpkin tiki torches that I saw at Party City. Oh, well.

Subtle.

Hello!! So it's all together possible I may be able to make the Diva's trip this year so I thought I would start hanging around here a bit!! I won't know for sure till probably the end of the year as I need to see where my finances will be though...

I'll also need a REALLY cheap hotel room or a roommate...

I love food so I'll probably spend my money there instead of a nicer room lol.

Yay Paula!! I hope you can come! It would be nice to meet you!

I have been talking to a couple girls about a room, but nothing is set in stone yet. I have a room booked at the HoJo, but I am looking to possibly stay at the DLH though, or PPH as I have never been able to stay in a Disney Hotel (apart from Pop Century), and I want the experience!

I can't remember the screen name of the person that I was talking about rooms to. She was from Canada too! Ontario I think.

I had one of those "oh, DUH!" moments today. I was on the Disney site, getting ready to pre-purchase my photopass. Transferred the money from my savings to checking and was in the check out screen when I saw a little spot for paying with a Disney GIFT CARD. Hold the phone! Right now Safeway is giving 4x gas reward points for gift card purchases. Right now I have double gas points loaded on my club card. So every time I get 100 points, I get a 20¢ per gallon discount. Which is 20 cents off for every $25 card I buy right now. SWEET! so, let's see - go to Safeway, buy a $100 gift card, get 400 points and get EIGHTY CENTS a gallon off my next fill up. Yes, please. LOL That's a $10 savings!

Ok... SO I am just trying to get caught up... But... this is how I paid for almost my ENTIRE WDW trip!! I under budgeted a bit (I forgot to factor in pool bars and lounges lol!!) but I figure we saved 10% off our trip this way!!

It would be nice to meet you too Andrea! I don't think I can commit to a room yet as like I say I need to see where my finances are first. But if you still have a spot when I know I am open to sharing with you!

Hi Paula, I really hope you can make it! That would be great!

Thanks Beth! If I go I think I am off of work for most of February! I need to have some money saved if that's going to happen!

Oh yes, meals are a very important part of every Diva trip!





Good morning, ladies! TGIF!! The kids have a 3 day weekend which I am very thankful for. Hope y'all have a good day!

My daughter's school took off today and Monday, so she's sleeping in. For some reason they have today off for nothing, but only Thursday and Friday off for Thanksgiving rather than the whole week like my other daughter who goes to school in California.

We're packing up the stuff we have here at my parents' place today and getting the keys to our new place in the morning. I can't wait.
