Disney done differently, (BOG dining updates pages 202 and 203)

If it just had Tinks on it, I'd be very interested if it wasn't green or purple. I rarely wear green or purple.

My Harveys bag did get dirty at the base. It does wipe clean, but not totally clean.

Will you get the Platinum pass thing that's good for both DLR and WDW?

Passes went up sky high in price in early June.

that's good you can clean it up!

oops, yes the Platinum so I can use it at both, know they went up, but can't get it until we go to DLR anyways, you can only get them at the parks

I didn't think about how heavy it would be. Dirty I don't really stress over I wouldn't be using it as everyday use.

How heavy the bag is, depends on the amount of metal. Also the different bags had different placement of straps. The messenger bag that I got has the straps in the back of the bag instead of the middle, but this makes it lay nicely when worn cross body.

Lol, I had assumed that, but just wanted to be sure.

Anakin's pass expires in July. Instead of renewing his pass, we bought a new PAP for him before the price increase. We have the voucher and it says good for a year after first use. Since there are no kids prices that saved us a bundle buy buying it as a child pass under the old pricing.

It was very touching.

I have to agree, despite everything, Anakin does have a good life! His mom and dad sure make sure that he gets the magic he so deserves and lots of love!

I am glad you treated yourself...I hope I did not cause the impulse buy! But when I saw the Tink I knew it had your name on it!

I hear you on the WW thing...I am at my heaviest too. This spring has been so stressful with Ab's situation, along with my job that I have turned to food. Since the end of May I have walked or done my ellipital machine for 6 hours each week. I have not gotten on the scale, nor I have I watched what I ate...but I know that I am going in the right direction!

Wow, what a list of spelling words! I am not sure I could pass a test, but he will learn them because he wants to and he has the ownership in them. Good move teacher mom!

 

[mommy2mrb]

cool you got Anakin's new pass before the prices went up!
hope you have a great day!
tell your sweet boy from us!

Checked the tracking number for the Photopass CD. Remember, I did the express shipping. It is in transit and expected to be delivered by the end of today!! Yay!!!

I agree too! His health conditions keep him from doing so much, but we have found so many other or different things that he can do.

In August he will be on a soccer team for the first time since he first started having seizures. He loves soccer so much, but with his delayed development and heat induced seizures we thought he couldn't play. During buddy ball we found an amazing women who coaches and organizes a soccer league for special needs. She came up to us and asked Anakin if he wants to play. He was so excited! She said it's just like Buddy Baseball in that they do what they are able and there is lots of flexibility.

Good for you on working out since May! You are headed in the right direction!

We have been working on our Tables in Wonderland more than working out. Before his seizures started, I did Zumba a couple days a week and was a size 8, without any type of dieting.

You did not cause the impulse buying, but you eased the 2nd thought afterwards. I sent you the pic after the purchase.

He actually loves phonic rules. So the spelling words are being learned by syllables and phonics. Since he likes the words, it sure helps!

cool you got Anakin's new pass before the prices went up!
hope you have a great day!

DH was so glad that mousesavers and other sites gave the heads up before the rate hike. I called the passholder hotline and the cm was very wonderful on the other side. At first he said I could just renew the pass at the discounted rate, but then he was told that wouldn't work and we'd be charged the difference when we went to get the replacement pass printed.

I asked about buying a new PAP for him instead. He asked about that and said that we can do that! Saved us nearly $200. I can't believe they don't have child prices for next year!!

He says hi and I hope you are having a nice day. This time he remembered right away who Lisa and Megan were. Right away he said we rode the horse with them!

I talk about the purse but chances are I will just get myself a $20 cinch bag again. That way if I get tired of carrying Scotty will willing wear it on his shoulders.

ROFL!! That's one of the reasons I usually carry my black baggallini messenger at the parks. That and I don't have to worry if it rains. And it sure has been raining here! Almost every afternoon it storms.

I was watching Good Morning America this morning and they were talking about all of the tropical storms out in the ocean in the Florida area. I thought of you guys. I think Florida gets more rain than we do.

What a great story Tink! I love the attention the CM gave Anakin! How amazing!

Totally love the bag! It's right up my alley as well!

 

[momabaarjo]

So cool about the soccer!

 

[blessedmom4]

Forgive me Tink, I have been so wrapped up in my own soap opera, I haven't commented here I pray Anakin continues to feel well. LOVED the Bell-ringers serenade and the ver kind words of Anakin having a great life...he does and he knows it...al because hi Mama makes sure of that. As for the extra pounds, until and unless you have a child with multiple health needs people can't understand what that does to your healthy eating...how well I know...Keep up the great work, so happy you have a plan!

We had a super dry winter though which fueled some wildfires a few weeks ago. But every since the day Grumpy left for Ohio it's been raining frequently. Our retention ponds show more water.

He was talking about the singing last night. He started singing When You Wish Upon a Star. He got all upset because his voice was cracking. Maybe from the bad sore throat he had last weekend? He felt defeated and said he's never singing again. I showed him how to clear his throat and told him to try again. Went better that time.

I would love to find voice lessons or acting classes for him. I have a friend who is a theater director and she dropped some names, but looks like big $$. Maybe if he gets serious, in the meantime I'm looking elsewhere. Grumpy's 2nd grade teacher and her dh use to teach voice. I should give them a call.

So cool about the soccer!

It should be fun!

You are in a bat nightmare right now. I sure understand!

That's why we appreciate Disney so much! Not only is it an escape from reality for a bit, but little pixie dust sprinklings like that, just brighten the day!

When we last talked, Anakin had just had a panic attack and major meltdown. That new medicine started over a month ago is really helping. He is hiding under the table alot less. He hasn't had to wear his head phones as much, and just overall seems to be tolerating things better. He is crying alot less too.

Please say an extra prayer for my dh, he is facing some additional struggles, thanks.

Well, it sounds like you need the rain for sure. If it slows down the fires it will all be worth it. There have been a lot of fires burning out here in the western part of the country.



I am sending thoughts and prayers.

 

[mommy2mrb]

prayers for Goofy, hope all will be okay

 

[Lidian]

Definitely praying for your DH.

News said we will get up to 10 inches of rain over this next week. That's great as long as it's not all at once and there's no flooding!

Appreciate it!

prayers for Goofy, hope all will be okay

I hope so too. Thanks!

Definitely praying for your DH.

Thank you!



I have given him instructions to get to the ER if he has anymore problems. He wouldn't let me take him yesterday when I wanted to.

Sorry have been very busy with my Free Trips this month and am hopelessly behind !! Hope Anakin feels better !!!

Fun! Free trips!!

He is feeling great, thanks! We are so happy that this time around he was sick, but it didn't trigger any seizures! He's still sleeping alot, about 13 hours a night, and a few days he took naps.
