First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise Eight is Enough, more than enough

[ADP]

Wow. Now I know why I had this urge to get online tonight. My DIS buds were concerned about me. Lisa sent me a PM on FB so I thought I better come over here and set your minds at ease.....

So, yeah, I had the DH talk. I was a nervous wreck all day yesterday and just couldn't come on here. I waited for DH to kinda initiate the conversation after he got home but when he didn't, I did. He said, "Say whatcha need to say and be done with it." *sigh* Not a good start. Anyway, to make a long story short, I did most of the talking and got it all out in the open. Did it solve anything? Not really. Not yet anyway. I think he needs a bit of time to process it all. (That's ok. I'll give him 1 week.) As of right now, he's (grudgingly) going on the trip. Not sure that's a good thing though. What's he gonna be like? Is he gonna ruin it for me and DD? I wish I could share a lot more about this with you guys but DH thinks all I do is talk about him behind his back to you guys as it is. (For the record, I never talked about DH until recently and I really haven't said much.) If you haven't guessed already, DH really hates it when I'm DISing.

Well, it's taken quite awhile to compose this. I had to keep editing because I felt I was divulging too much info. All is ok though. Time will tell. I'll keep ya posted on any progress (or lack there of).

Thanks for thinking about me guys!

Glad to hear from you Dara. Hang in there. If you need to post we are here for you.

I'm sorry to hear this Katherine. Best wishes to both you and John getting through this.



Nice to hear from you Dara. I hope everything turns out ok with the fam.

Thank you, your a wonderful friend!

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone for your hugs and support.
However my B father and I are not close.
Things will not change between now and when he passes.
Certain things in life you cannot change, just learn and continue on.
However things have changed on the home front.
We are worried right now as John has tried to do too much too fast.
We may have to make a run to the emergancy room tonight or tomorrow.
Have already talked to the nurse.
Now it's a watch and wait situation with him.
I cannot go until I know he is in good shape.
John has always been first on my list of priorities.
My family has never thought much of that, but so what.
The last few years the relations have been such that when people ask about my family it consist of John and the 2 boys.

I hope John is OK. Hope you do not need to make that trip to the ER.

Glad to hear your o.k.
Don't sweat it.
Either way you are going to have a great time.
And if he does come, he will understand your dising after the cruise.
He may even be as interested in dising as you are.
Then you will have the same problem as John and I.

 

[katscradle]

Katherine,

I'm sorry things are not going well with John and for the other things going on. Hopefully you won't have to head for the ER tonight. If need be, tie him down to the couch and give him the remote. I'm sure the cruise can't come fast enough for you.

Good luck,
Kim

No he is in bed right now following nurses instructions.
However he is worried.
So I think it's going to be a long night.

Sending up prayers for you guys the next couple of days!!

I don't know if it's going to make you feel better or not, but yours is NOT the only "difficult" husband getting brought on this trip.

I only recently got him to agree to come. Gave him the ultimatum with the airline tickets, then "accidentally" ran into him by the AAA office and told him it might be a good idea to get a passport pic while we were there. Yeah, I know, I'm devious.

I swear I'd have a better time without him, but if I went without him, I might as well not bother coming home. He'd be impossible to live with.

He's not a bad guy...just different.

Hang in there. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn't, it doesn't. Find a way to enjoy your good fortune, and ignore the bad.

Glad to hear you're OK, Dara. I don't think you and Mindy need worry too much about your DH's; from some very reliable podcasters, I hear it's nearly impossible not to enjoy a Disney cruise. Plus, I strongly believe there are plenty of us (most/all of us, in fact) who can be DIS-crazies at times but can get along with non-DIS people as well.

 

[katscradle]

Did everyone find the thread about boycotting disney.
John wants to start a letter writing campain and swap disney.

I was a non diser not too long ago.
Don't worry about it.
When I met the first disers at TSM that was really something for me.
At that time I had only been on the boards for about a month.
Now it's a fight to see who get how much time to dis.

Oh and by the way DH is joanzing to dis.
"tell me what's going on, I haven't dis'ed in two days."

More 's for John. The gentle kind.

Hey Nicole...I got the things you mailed to me today!

Went tanning...ahhhhh...I have missed my 10 minutes of doing absolutely NOTHING...

I also went swimsuit shopping. I've tried a few different stores but ended up at Kohls this morning and scored 2 suits! I'm undecided on one of them...but DH really likes the other one.

First one This is the one that DH really likes
Second one top (bought in black, not brown)
Second one bottom (bought in black, not brown)

I think they are both keepers.

More HUGS for you Dara!!! We're here if you want to talk.

 

[tickledtink33]

At this moment I'm a little worried about Dara. She was suppose to have the DH talk last night and she hasn't been back here in almost a day. Not like her. Hopefully everything is ok.

I was thinking about Dara last night, hoping things turned out ok.

I really like the 1st one too.

I haven't worn a bathing suit since the early 90's! This is the one I've tentatively picked out. I have no idea what it'll look like on me though. DM thinks it's a good choice so that's good enough for me. (Mother always knows what's right for ya!) Anyway, I don't know what all we'll be doing while at CC so I want to be sure I'm comfortable....

I hope everything is ok with John. Tell him to take it easy. It takes time to heal after surgery.

Thanks for keeping me in your thoughts Ann and Kim!

Well I think he tried to show he was going to be o.k. if I needed to leave for a few days.
He did too much, too soon.

 

[katscradle]

Is there anyone else here?
Or am I here by myself?

 

[katscradle]

Well I guess I will call it a night.
I have a feeling I won't be getting much sleep tonight.

Wondered if I was the only one left here.
