Disney Anxiety Again...

[misshilda1]

I know I'm not alone here when it comes to getting anxious about any possiblity of a Disney trip but am I the only one who thinks,dreams and talks about nothing but Disney? I really thought I had it under control this time but I just found out Sunday that my dad will be able to go with us..My dad and I are extremely close.He has never been to WDW and every year I come back blabbing constantly about all we did and how good this was...But know that he is going to get to go I'm going thru my first trip ever jitters and anxiety all over again.I know I know this seems silly but consider this not only do I have 72 days left to worry about will it rain, will we have time for this but know I have 72 days left to worry about how I can cram everything I need him to know,see and experience in 8 days..Only 8.It's like being a newbie all over agin. I'm so excited but overwhelmed at the same time and no matter how I try to forget about it or get over it I just can't..I think they need to start a Disney Clinic for addicts.. I feel like Clark Griswold out of those National Lampoon's Vacation movies trying to make the impossible happen...Oh well if your at WDW the end of Sept.thru the 1st week of Oct. and you see an over weight strawberry blonde dragging a man of the same stature and hair color down Main street USA with one of those child safety harnasess it will be me...I will probably have his wallet and room key so he has't to stay with me the whole time. He will either see and do it all or feel like he did...And should I get tired my husband and daughter will help out because they are extremely close to him and crazy about Disney like I am.

You're all going to have a great time!

You didn't say how many WDW trips you've been on, but this one will surely be extra memorable with your dad along.

8 days days doesn't seem too short of stay, you'll be able to show your dad "alot" of DisneyWorld in 8 days.
OF my last 6 trips, I've been with my parents (60/70ish) 4 times and we always have fun

Thanks so much for the wonderful wishes....I have been on Disney Property 3 times and off site many...My husband has been alot more than I....8 days is a good amount of time but I'm sure you'll agree with me 6 months wouldn't be enough lol....

We've been in the same spot with bringing friends or extended family for their first trip to the world (or their first time in a long tme). I love being able to show them all the cool little things they may have otherwise missed. However, I LOVE planning all that stuff, but it is a bit nerve wracking just the same. Don't worry...8 days is quite a bit of time...if he doesn't see it all this time, you can bring him on the next trip! We have my aunt and uncle hooked on Disney and now they come with us on at least one trip to the mouse each year. They are still trying to conquer it all!

We will be at WDW the same time as you it seems. So if you see anyone wearing those LGMH, say hello!

Hope you have a fun trip and definitely need the Disney addict clinic. Have a fun and magical trip.
