DISappearing Peeps...A fastpass to THIN! Part 2

[punkin413]

Now Punkin, what happened to your ticker? I thought it was 19 days yesterday?? (Did I mention I was never good at math??)

maybe you last looked at it on sunday? i always get my days mixed up on holiday weekends! 17 days is right - we leave on the 21st!

I'm down a little in my weight again today! I better hurry and tell y'all before it goes up on friday I'm trying really hard!!! No Two's, No Two's!!!! Almost there!

awesome!!!

I am very OCD and I cannot stand to have an outfit for baby and not have at least one blanket with color in it. I also try to coordinate the pacifier, oufit and bottle. I have always done this--even with DS who is about to be 13. I know to much energy, but they have to look cute right? Ok that is enough about my OCD moments I know you guys probably think I am crazy. My firends just laugh and say that is Heather for ya.

this is so gonna be me if i ever have kids. i can just see it now.

i'm off to mow the yard a/k/a sweat away mucho calories!

PEEPS! I just found this info about having private photo sessions at the Grand Floridian that you can have added to your photopass CD! The sitting fee is waived if you buy the CD and you can use the prepaid photopass CD too! I booked a photopass session for my kids right before the peep meet!

Grand Floridian Portrait Sessions Offer One-On-One Photo Moments
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- There's a new occasion to "say cheese" at Walt Disney World Resort: during individual portrait sessions now available at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa.
Guests who desire a more one-on-one photo experience during their Walt Disney World vacation can book a shoot at the majestic Victorian-style resort where a Disney PhotoPass photographer escorts the group through some of its most picturesque backdrops. Consultations are available prior to the shoot to discuss wardrobe, session location and theme options.
Guests can create a portrait package that suits their individual needs with two current offers: a single sitting ($49.95), and a package that includes a sitting and a PhotoPass CD with all of the digital images taken by theme park photographers during a guest's vacation ($124.95). For more information or to book a portrait session, visit Disney's PhotoPass desk on the second floor of Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa or call 407/824-1700.

How cool!!! I am sharing a photopass with some people from TGM though. She did email me the receipt, but I am not sure how that would work since it is not my name on it.....something to think about I guess.

ts da - I have to go back to work in a few minutes - sneaking online!

Hang in there!

Are you drinking water?
Sitting up straight?
Walking 30 min!!

Now down to business... on the suggestions for my personal summer problems!! I will say that I reead a few things and making sure you get calcium (at 500 g at a time - your body cant absorb more than that at one time!) and Black Cohosh - (studies and reports I've been reading suggest black cohosh to be more effective than soy - only trust me, I've increased our soy intake as well - those soy nuts are yummy, and I dont mind tofu cooked in a stir fry once a week!)

The ice in the towel - at home I have those soft sided refreezable ice paks, those go on my neck or head (the heat that escapes my body thru my head - its amazing!!) For WDW I'm going to invest (or I have invested) in those neck wraps you let those crystals absorb water they fill up and get large? I think I got mine at the Flea Market but Walmart carried them at one time)

They were great when I was preg at WDW 11 years ago!!

Gotta go back to the grind!!

 

[Disneyfreak92]

I hope everyone is doing well today!

For those who like to be notified over here on the Peep thread, I finished my May trip report over the weekend. AND I started my new pre-trip for the September trip!

You always make me sit up straighter when I read your posts! Thanks!

"Personal Summer" I like that! Can I "steal" it?!?

Also, I hadn't heard about the Black Cohosh. Thanks! I also know I don't get enough calcium and will start to take calcium tablets.

You know...you are always full of such good tips! Thanks!!!

 

[lexmelinda]

Oh yeah, where did you find this information--would like to pass on to some friends that are going soon.

It's posted on at allearnet.com.....Here's the link! Just scroll down til you see it!

Melinda...The portraits sound like a great idea!!! Perfect opportunity for family pics before Mimi goes off to college! (That's next year, isn't it??)

Yes. That's why I thought it would be a nice last portrait of the kids before she leaves us. What a bonus too if you were planning on buying the photopass CD anyway!

How cool!!! I am sharing a photopass with some people from TGM though.

I think some of those people might be planning to do a shared photo session. Check it out over at TGM forums.

Jen - we should've been on the same share a cd !! (I just joined one today!)

Black Cohosh - dont take if you have allergies - sometimes these natural cures can be problematic if you have hay fever!! (those pretty flowers that give you hay fever is what they use to make lots of the homeopathic medicines!)

Calcium - WOMEN esp, we do NOT want osteroporsis (great where's my dictionary? brittle bones as we get older because we donated so many unfertilized egg food - it has a draining affect on our bodies as we get older - GET thee to Calcium!! Now Tums is made entirely of Calcium Carbonate - so truly chewing tums is healthy!! (I let dd chew a tums a day, I'd rather she eat enough calcium, but just in case, chew a tum!!)

Barefoot Coral Calcium - is the easiest for our bodies to digest - and therefore use - Plus it has the other vitamins we need PLUS its in a gelatin tablet and easier to swallow than some of those horse pills!! Just remember your body can only absorb 500 mg at time of calcium - and the Barefoot Coral Calcium serving size is 3 Tablets!!

sure go right ahead - I stole it from some tv sitcom - "having my own personal summer" we've got to laugh!! (and after 12 - 20 flashes I was on the verge of tears!! Calcium, tofu, and black cohosh seems to have slowed that down!! PTL!!)

I left work early, I'm sure I'll hear about it tomorrow!! But dd needed a ride at 2:15 - I was finished at 2:10 testing kids (so no kids, and the lead teacher said I could go!! But it irratates people that I get paid for a full day if I leave early - which I totally respect!! but family first!! )

Tonight is Back to School Night - at dd school - no kids!! How after 5 days of school they have a back to school night and the teachers are prepared???? oh well - and I was hoping for one scheduled the week of Sept 22 Still not sure when I'm going to bring it up I'm leaving and taking dd with me!!

that is so weird! i logged out and viewed a post by me to see if that would change it and it still says 17 days on my screen. what is everyone else seeing?

 

[eeyore45]

It now says 17 days!!

Logging out must've done it!!

I'm so glad I copied it to photobucket to prove I'M NOT CRAZY oh wait, I did just copy and ....

 

[HockeyKat]

Hehe Sandy... not crazy for THAT reason anyhow!!

I am almost in single digits! 10 days!!

I think we are going to try the allnighter again this time. DH has inventory on Friday night and gets out around midnight, so I think that we are going to pack the car Thurs night, I will leave early Fri and sleep until he gets home, then we will leave. If we leave at 12:30 we should get there around 10AM. We are staying at SSR so I am hoping the room will be ready. If not we will laze around some, maybe hit the MK for a few hours, then take a nice afternoon nap before our 8PM Ohana ressie.

I was really hoping our BWV BW View waitlist would come through but I don't think it will.

phew!!! i thought i was going crazy, too!

i'm angry at the UPS man. he just passed my house and didn't stop. i'm expecting a package from busted tees that i wanted to get before we leave for savannah....an order i placed on 8/23! shouldn't it be here by now? they didn't give me a tracking number, just an order number and no one is responding to the e-mail i sent about it. i got DH two shirts, one says "McLovin" (from the movie "superbad") and the other "Never Forget" and has a picture of a dinosaur. eric on BB was wearing that one. and i got myself one that says "more cowbell." if you don't get it, you must go watch this now.....one of my all-time favorite SNL skits!

I was going to take this opportunity to MESS with you but it does say 17. I'm 18! NINE more days till my 40th birthday...which I've warned my family, ONE black balloon or Over the Hill comment or BLACK anything will leave them severely punished.

18 more days! I gotta PACK!!!!

Well since we're not family does that mean we should...

BTW, not only have I NOT packed - I dont have a packing LIST... not only do I NOT have a packing list, I havent printed out ANYTHING from tgm... nor have I figured out what I want to print...

The whole dd "NOT getting on a plane" has me freaked out I think!! I think I just want to pack our bags Thursday night, the taxi will get here at 4am, and I'll spring it on her then!!

Hi Peeps,

I'm still around. Just not posting all that much. My internship is keeping me quite busy in addition to other school nonsense. My mind is constantly racing with things that need to get done - even over this long weekend, I spent most of it planning ahead and writing reports.

Tomorrow is my site visit - a supervisor from my school is coming to my site to meet with me and my supervisor and possibly observe me with a client. I'm nervous even though I guess I really shouldn't be.

And the boy and I haven't talked since last week (monday in class). He went back home for the long weekend but I thought I would have gotten a call by now. And I'm being super stubborn and passive aggressive and refusing to call him, even though I really want to talk to him. Whatever. Que sera, sera.

Hope all of you are doing well! Send stress free pixie dust my way please!

OMG! We just saw Superbad this weekend. It was HIlarious! And DH has a T-shirt that says "More cowbell" and has a pic of a cowbell on it. That IS one of the best skits! One of my other faves is Debbie Downer, where everyone starts losing it. I LOVE it when they can't hold in their laughter! I am also a HUGE fan of all of the Celebrity Jeopardy skits. I love the ones with Sean Connery! Makes me wish Will Farrell was still on the show.

Hi Peeps,

I'm still around. Just not posting all that much.

hi, shannon!

welp, i went shopping today. i had NO dress pants for work, so that was my goal. i ended up getting a pair of size 8 khakis at old navy (40% off! ), a pair of size 6 plaid pants at dress barn, a pair of size 8 chocolate pants at gap and a pair of size 10 black floods at gap (40% off again!). so, in case you didn't catch that, i get a size 6, two size 8's, and a size 10. whatever! i'm not complaining about the sizes......just the variation!!

JANELLE is on BB right now!!!!! (i'm such a loser.)
