Dis Old Fogies Clubhouse – Six of One, Half Dozen of the Other. Makes No Difference!

[YoYoAurora]

After 6 days in the hospital DH will be heading home today. Woo hoo!

Woo hoo! I hope he's doing much better soon!

Sending prayers and pixie dust to all who need it.

The YoYos had a great time at WDW, after some speed bumps and glitches. It seems that they thought the knew how fast passes and table service reservations worked, and didn't need my expertise. They discovered that they knew how it used to work, and I know how it works now. Five Disney "experts" transformed into novices very quickly once we hit the parks. "It used to work that way," was an oft repeated sentiment.

They apologized and followed my advice for the rest of the trip, after missing out on some desired dining options and fast passes for rides with long wait times. No, you can't expect me to score lunch time reservations for 6 adults at SciFi Dine In Theater at 11:35 am on the day you want to eat there! (I tried anyway, because you never know. I failed. No surprise there.) No, you can't just walk up and expect to get 6 fast passes to Kilimanjaro Safari just because you used to do it that way. You might get lucky. Some people have had their for days.

Now back to work to save for another trip in late October-early November 2016! Chatty YoYo is seriously thinking of dragging her husband there at the same time.

I'm glad you had a great trip to the World and like all proper Disney nuts are planning your return.

I hope the TLC took care of the sore throat. We're back home now and I have an awful pain in my side/back. I'm going to take a bath for the first time in a while. Besides it's raining today and we've received over 2 inches of rain in one day.

Angela I hope everything is smooth with your hubby's homecoming tomorrow.

Yes. The early night seems to have worked wonders.

Sorry about your side/back pain. Are you feeling better?

 

[PrincessInOz]

After 6 days in the hospital DH will be heading home today. Woo hoo!

YAY! That's good news.

 

[PrincessInOz]

enjoy the cooler weather. It is only 72 today and only 20 percent chance of rain.

Sounds perfect!

 

[PrincessInOz]

"It used to work that way," was an oft repeated sentiment.

Yup. Those days are well and truly over!

 

[franandaj]

Angela, I hope your hubby is relaxing comfortably at home now.

Yoyo, glad you're back and had a good time for the most part. Times are a changin'!

I did not know it was raining down there Alison,

I didn't know either until I looked out h window and saw it for myself!

Sorry about your side/back pain. Are you feeling better?

Well a bath on Tuesday (figured I could swing that with he rain and all) and a massage yesterday I'm mostly back to normal. Now we have the headache with the car.

I understand car issues.

Good morning Fogies.

Angela - Glad that your DH is back home and resting.

YoYo - Nice to read that you had a great time at WDW

Usnuz - At least the weather here in NorCal is getting better.

Alison - Hope you are feeling better. We understand about car issues having problems.

 

[usnuzuloose]

Hi Bret. Yes weather is better. Lets hope they don't have a Tsunami toward Alison's way from the earthquake.

How is your team doing?

YoYo did not know you were going. But at least you had a good time!

 

[mvf-m11c]

Hi Usnuz. Same here and hope nothing is happening down in SoCal.

I haven't started yet. I won't start until October.

I can't wait to leave next month. It is hard to make FP+ when you are not staying on-site but I will try to get the rides/shows that I want to do with or without FP+.

 

[usnuzuloose]

At least coaching is better in Oct, much cooler at times. Have a good time, I have never done the FP + thing. Not sure I am a fan of having to plan just about everything for a vacation. But you always have a good time

 

[ACDSNY]

Boy a little sleep goes a long ways. It was so good to be home.

Oh good! How is your DH? And how are you? Sounds like you got some good rest! And keep doing so.

 

[usnuzuloose]

Tell your husband I said hello, and to get better soon.

DH is doing pretty good. We both got a couple of hours and a half stretches of sleep and went back to bed after an early breakfast. DS stayed with him this afternoon so I could go to the store and DD is having someone come clean our house on Saturday.

Tell your husband I said hello, and to get better soon.

Will do.

Definitely. Mostly inside a gym instead of going outside. Mostly I only do planning on specific things when I am at the Disney Parks but doing it for WDW is a lot especially when I am not staying on-site and I don't get to make my FP+ 30 days until the day I visited the park. Thanks usnuz.

You will have a good time there no matter what, it is really huge so just take your time and enjoy!

Bret I hope your FP+ work out.

Angela I hope you and your DH are relaxing at home.
