DISappearing Peeps...Vol. 3! All are Welcome!

[DisneyObsession]

You GUYS!
Have you ever planned a trip to Disney and had to cancel it? When the time arrives for when the trip would have been...UGH, it's SO hard!

On my kitchen calender is crossed off "Disneyland Trip, YAY" for Oct. 16-22. The only thing that made it bearable to leave last time is knowing we'd be coming back this fall. POOH!

It's the first time in many years that no trip is remotely possible unless we charge it (which I refuse to do).

On the upside, if there is one, my kids sort of lost the "magic" from going so often so I'm hoping when/if we go again, some of that magic will return to their faces.

Thank God for Trip Reports, huh?!


Geeezh, it's a ghost town around here on the weekends!

I've done the same thing and have been quite sad over it! I can send you some pics if you need a fix! I don't know if I'll write a TR or not.

Aloha Peeps!

Today is our 9 and last night in Maui! We are staying at the four seaons in Wailea and the hotel and service here is truly Spectacular! I even got a foot massage in our cabana at the pool! Ahhhh!!! The food is 2 good and I have been very un peep like but hey you are only on your honeymoon once! We went to watch the sunrise at 10,000 ft on Mt. Haleakala a truly unique and amazing experience and then we biked back down the mountain...We are having a fabulous time and are sad to go but its not all bad because tomorrow morning we wake up and we are on our way to DISNEYLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We will be at the Grand Californian from Tuesday - Sunday! Can't wait to go on Space Mountain and Indian Jones

Our Photographer was nice enough to send us a sample of some of his pictures he took during our wedding. I couldn't be happier with his work you can see for yourself here. I particularly love the one when I am walking down the steps to see my future husband for the first time

Hope all is good with the Peeps!

Wow Lauren those photos are amazing!

 

[DisneyObsession]

Good Morning Peeps!

Life is crazy around here! Had this crew (12 college kids, DD& fam) over for apple picking and chili on Sun: (The 3 kneeling in the front are my DS, DD, SIL and GS)

We had soooo much fun and my kitchen was full for dinner! Nothing like nice chili after a day of apple picking! (Larry & I had our own little table on the otherside of the kitchen!)

DD & fam are moving back in with us at the end of the month, so I am heading over there to do a little cleaning and packing today before work. Put ribs in the crockpot for dinner so DH can eat when he gets home.

Hope all my peeps have a good day!!

 

[WI_DisneyFan]

I hope everyone is having a good week so far! I sorta overdid it a little bit this past weekend; but when you wait 26 years for your favorite team (in my case the Milwaukee Brewers) to make the playoffs, you soak it all in. We'll see how much that affects my number this Friday.

Anyway, here are the total from the past two weeks (since I forgot to post it last week). Let me know if I missed you or mis-quoted you.

Quickly checking in!

Wendy - so sorry about the trip cancellation. I hope your next trip is extra FABulous to make up for it!

Lauren - LOVED the pics! Great inspiration for me as a wedding photographer! And you were stunning!!!

 

[my2boysrtwicethefun]

Just stopping in to say hi and that I'm leaving tomorrow evening for North Carolina. We're going to Lowe's Motorspeedway this weekend for the Sprint cup race. No weigh-in this week for me. Later everyone.

 

[lovealldisney]

Hi Everyone,
I am sorry I haven't been around lately. I missed weigh in last week but I was the SAME.

I am just feeling so down lately! I have been having some issues with 2 co-workers of mine making false acusation about me and have just had the most stressful week! I won't go into detail about the situtation but lets just say one co-worker went into my bosses inbox and looked at everyone productivity and now has been spreading nasty rumors about me and few other co-workers. I can't tell you how stressed it is at work. My supervisor has done nothing about this person ( she has been in trouble numerous times ) So now I have gone to our HR department and filed a complaint against her. Only time will tell what will happen but at the very least I hope these 2 are moved out of our office.

On top of everything else I haven't been able exercise with all the running I have to do after school. UHG ..... I feel like I am slug. I can surely tell that when I was working out regularly I felt much more energenic! I can't wait for my daughters basketball to be done so I can get back to the gym! I feel like I am going to gain back all the weight I lost and I'll have to start at square one again!

Please cheer me up! I really need my fellow peep friends to get me through this! Thanks for listening/reading my delema!

Rally up Peeps!!!!

Work stress is the pits! So sorry for the situation you 're in!

The bright side is, you realize the potential to gain back weight so try to rise above it. Other than that, post often! For me the weight creeps back when I don't come here or stay totally focused. Just get through one day at a time.

 

[dwheatl]

Lovealldis, sorry about the stress. I hate when people are that way. DH is having that kind of trouble, and I feel like going down there and opening up a can of whoop-a**. Good luck with HR.
Is there any kind of exercise you can fit in at home? I've been riding the exercise bike a few nights a week until I can get to the gym (I finally made it there tonight). I have gained back the weight I lost, and I am having a heck of a time taking it back off. The last couple of weeks I've been doing ok, mostly because I've been writing everything down, even my cheat days, and that makes me want to exercise, so I can see the calorie total drop.
Whatever you can do, don't get discouraged. You can do this.

Greetings from Disneyland!

Quick post we are on the second half of our honeymoon we got to disneyland on Tuesday. We are having ALOT of fun but I just feel like something is missing here I can not put my finger on it but I am def a Walt Disney World Fan. I didnt think Indiana Jones was that awesome Maybe too much hype, the Monte Cristo Sandwich at the Blue Bayou was def worth all the hype it was beyond EXCELLENT!!! The parade of dreams parade was 2 cute..today we are going to Disney's California adventure. The crowds here yesterday were minimal we made it to the park before the rope drop got the bigger attractions out of the way and only waited 20 minutes top the whole time we were here yesterday for some of the other attractions, we are hoping the crowds will be the same today we know once fri or sat roll around they will be much bigger

hope all is well with the peeps!

Happy Valley...I know that reference!




Happy Weigh Day Eve kids!
I was UP 3 pounds magically this morning and have been trying ALL day to pull off a biggest loser miracle!

Good Luck Everyone!!!!

 

[dwheatl]

I'm posting from the exercise bike in a last ditch to take off the restaurant calories from this week. I don't know why I snacked a lot today.

LMO, glad to hear from you. Even if you are dissing my DL I love WDW, but one of my problems is there IS so much to it. We always come home exhausted and broke because, especially with the distance from here, we feel compelled to see and do it all. That and the fact that we can only get there in summer, in the heat and rain. With DL, I feel like I can easily see it all in 3 or 4 days. I just wish they had more shows.

I loved the one with you on the stairs and your hubby on the other side (is that the one you were talking about), so cute. I noticed a pin of Mickey and Minnie, did you where it, where? I collect pins so I was just curious.

Good Morning Peeps!

so sorry about your work problems. I had a woman at my job that used to talk behind my back when I called in because of snow. Now keep in mind I was leaving at 11:00 pm, going 30 minutes to my house, and going up a hill with a lot of big curves on ice with two small children making $12 an hour. Sorry not worth the risk. So I understand a little about the work stress. That's one reason why I left.
