***Disney Design Addict's Chit Chat,Designs and Pixie Dust! Everybody WELCOME!*** Part 3

[triplefigs]

Forget my DCL wedding t-shirt emergencies, I'm about to have a DCL t-shirt emergency tonight!!!!!!!!!

Here's the background...
Last year, DBF and I went on the DCL for Thanksgiving and LOVED IT!!! So relaxing, so much fun, Castaway Cay double dip (means you go there twice in one trip), avoided all the relatives so no one (or everyone) was disappointed we weren't with them, etc. DBF wanted to do the same this year. But I wanted to go to Disneyland and SF to see my relatives, so that's what we are doing. Supposed to leave tomorrow morning at 6 am to fly to Vegas for a few days with his parents, then go to SF to see my family next Tues through the following Tues.

Now, some things have changed with my relatives (people selling their homes, moving, upheaval, yada yada) and we are both worn out from this year and really want to go on the cruise and just RELAX. So we are seriously contemplating getting on the Thanksgiving cruise this coming Saturday -- DBF is a cast member, so we can go last minute.

That's 2 days from now!! I don't have time to make 7 days of t-shirts, plus appease the relations, plus rebook flights and rearrange our lives in 2 days!!! And yet we really want to go on the DCL. It's our favorite thing!

And to top it all off Denise and Kate aren't taking requests right now (I am TOTALLY joking!!), and it's the holidays so everyone is busy and can't help, and I still don't know how to use Photoshop so can't make my own designs. I'm going to have to search the DDA and borrow everyone's DCL designs if I'm going to make this happen. Why can't Target be open 24 hours so I can get t-shirts in the middle of the night?!

How's that for a t-shirt crisis from an only child perfectionist who is freaking out! I know, I know "get a real problem." Deciding whether or not to go on DCL and making t-shirts for the trip is small beans compared to surgery and other world issues.

Will keep you posted on the DCL trip decision.

Jennifer

I will personalize them for you. kate's got a bunch of cruise shirts on her site too.

This is a great solution for everybody but our Matthew. When he had his 107 fever and febrile seizure, they had told me the day before the seizure to do Tylenol, Motrin. Would you believe in addition to the febrile seizure, he was now throwing up blood? His tummy couldn't handle the meds and was just a mess. That's also the weekend of three nights in emergency as well as the weekend my mother died. Talk about stress....

Not fun at all!

That sounds horrible.

Well I just got home from the dr & what I thought was a bad chest cold is pnemonia. I think I caught it here on the t-shirt thread!

I hope you're feeling better soon

 

[Glynis]

I know, I know. But since the kids are having surgery, they get to pick dinner. That's their favorite! And I make awesome tacos, tamales, Mexican rice, refried beans, chips with queso dip. YUMMY! Ole!

Maybe we should sing Feliz Navidad instead?

Or as my 3 year old twins sing, "Fleas, Naughty Dog". Have fun tonight. I'll be thinking about your kids and saying prayers until you post that all went well!

Nick does not have pneumonia - so now we just have to wait it out for 4 or 5 days and hope the rest of us don't get it

Fingers crossed that the rest of you manage to stay healthy! Nobody should be doing any of this

And wash your hands A LOT!!!

 

[Cinderumbrella]

Yikes- all you sickies around here!!! I may have to log off for a few days so I don't catch anything (lol). Just kidding- last time I did that I came back to 50 pages of new material!

Kate, that is great news about Nick. Good luck getting some meds into him.

Denise, thanks for the tip about the tylenol/motrin 3 hour rule. I am tucking it into my mental roladex for the next time Kyle gets sick.

Hunka, feel better soon! (I missed that post where that was revealed or I would have posted it earlier)

Sorry, I don't remember who was going on the last minute cruise- but HAVE A BLAST! I am so jealous. We have been back from WDW for 16 days now and I am ready to go back!!! Kyle talks about it all the time- but how do you convince a 2 year old that we can't just get in the car and go- that it is 1000 miles away!

I'm so glad it's not pneumonia. I hope that the rest of you can get away unscathed. Sounds like this is the season for everyone to feel yucky! I'm not doing so well myself, however, mine is due to my surgery and rushing to eat things I shouldn't. Oh well, I guess I've learned a good lesson.

Thank goodness. Wash your hands, no kissing, and no sharing food/utensils. Spray Lysol on all door handles, etc. Give him a hug for us!

[triplefigs]

Ok, kids are having a late snack (no eating after midnight), and I'm fading fast. Think the tree will have to wait. Dinner was good, though!

Mommykds- I hope you're taking it easy and get well soon. Hugs to you!

 

[Steamboat Marti]

Good luck tomorrow Denise - sorry we can't be there to help. At least we can offer this - and

[tink2020]

LOVE IT!!! But since we're not going till next year, could you change 05 to 2006??? LOVE IT!

sure! PM me your email address

 

[Tinkaroo]

Kate, glad to hear that Nick doesn't have pneumonia!!! I echo the Lysol comments - spray it on EVERYTHING.

There must be something going around - I've had what I thought was a cold since Saturday, and then boom, today it's laryngitis! Which my doctor was quick to diagnose over the phone (hmm, all you have to do is hear me open my mouth!). Everyone at my office is sick, too.

Jennifer - have fun on your cruise if you guys decide to go, and best of luck with the tees! Where do you live in the Metroplex? DH and I live in Plano.

 

[miss missy]

I would have posted sooner but didn't want to accidentally be 12000

So the doctor told me Nick had one of 3 things - my first choice of the 3 was strep -

the test was negative -

now I am not sure if I want him to have pneumonia or a viral infection:

we are waiting for chest x-ray results and the doc told me she would call later tonight with the results

if he does not have pneumonia - he has a virus that is a very high fever like he has been all day today for about 4 days - he is highly contagious and odds are the rest of the house will all get it before all is said and done

I will let you all know later!!!

Kate

Last year when I got back from Disney, DD had a virus like that, mostly fever and just down for the count, nothing else, for 1 week! She was so DOWN! I brought her in 2 times like what the..., it really was a virus.

Hope he gets better soon!

 

[miss missy]

Kate. Get the motrin into him as soon as you can. I'm sure that he will feel a little better when the fever comes down. Sounds like your in for some sleepless nights. Sending Pixie Dust your way.

Colby says sorry Nick. I hope you feel better soon.

Deb

Oh and Kate, I just remembered, I gave her childrens mortinevery 6(I SWEAR ON THIS STUFF) and tylenol every 4 per the DR, check on that too!

 

[Tammi67]

Denise - I hope I catch you before you go....good luck with everything tomorrow.
