First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise Use Multiquote, It Saves Nine

[katscradle]

It's all about people getting as much (value) as they can out of Disney, and Disney maintaining a certain level of profit margin. I've never done the dining plan Don and probably never will.

We did the dining plan on our first trip to WDW in 2006.
The travel agent recommended it.
However we did not find that it was worth it.
We also found that we were just eating to use it.
On our trips since then we have just eaten when and where we wanted and have enjoyed it much more.

When my girls were little, SOMEONE wrote on the bathroom walls with a thick red permanent marker... spelled the word "elephant" and then signed her little sister's name.

We didn't fall for that trick. The 5 year old was punished.

[firsttimemom]

well- that's a big start. I used toothpaste (the paste kind, not the gel kind) on our old house to get crayon off the walls before we put it up for sale. Any chance you have some leftover wall paint?

 

[DVCsince02]

Yes, we have more paint. Funny, Chris just mentioned he needed to paint.

Because I know there are some Toy Story Mania fans going on the cruise:



Not soon enough for the practice prior to the cruise, but certainly for DIS-a-palooza!!!

Oh I am going to the store and put my name on the pre order list for this.
That means on the day it is released I don't have to wait in line,
and I don't have to worry about not getting one.
They'll have one with my name on it.

I don't know if its the economy or market saturation, but finding a Wii is not as tough as it was in the past. The local Targets, Meijers and Wal-marts all have it in stock. The WiiFat, on the other hand is still a hot commodity.[/QUOTE]

Up here the Wiifit's are not hard to get.
Walk into any store and they will have a couple on hand.

Wow! That's excellent Jen, considering. You sure have a lot of elbow grease.

 

[katscradle]

Thanks Todd. That made me laugh, and I needed it.

Ethan decided to draw on the white kitchen floor, white wall, and white cabinets with BLACK permanent marker.

Hey Mister clean magic eraser may take it off.
I know my DS used orange permanent marker on a door and the magic eraser got it off. after being there for about 3 years.
Don't ask long story.
Just try the magic eraser.

Well gang...I'm leaving work and heading home, but before I shut down my PC I looked at my month to month calendar and couldn't help to notice how close May 10th is. Wooohooo!!!

Looks Picasso to me.

Has anybody noticed that "our" muddy buddies have raised over $800?!!!

Exactly Katherine. I think there are some that take ADR's, dining, etc. over the top. Not me. Love food but it will compliment, not dictate my vacation.

Now beer,

Hopefully to be replaced with Low Sugar/Sugar Free Cake Points!!!



I would have multi-quoted but they were spaced apart. I've been lurking on the cruise board. Not looking for food. For magnets!! Much healthier. Fewer calories.

WiiFits are getting pretty easy to get here too.



Jen, I love how he drew the circle on the floor. I was mad when I came home one day and my DH had let DS draw with a permant marker and some of it got on the carpet. FYI, Magic Eraser does not work on carpet.

oh Jen- what a day!

note to self, remove all permanent markers from house!!!!

So we found out Mom's surgery is April 6th. Hopefully she can recover by the cruise and feel better. I hope to go with her to the pre-op and ask about the recovery timeline. We might need to get a wheelchair for our KTTK tour on May 9th. Hopefully she will be feeling good by cruise time and can enjoy and relax. They will do the surgery through her skull to remove the entire pitutary tumor.

almost quitting time, although i have BUNCO tonight. hope i win the cash!

Hi Fiona!!

I'm diabetic as well and shouldn't eat the sweets. How are you planning on restraining from over indulging in the 'forbidden fruit' so to speak?

Hi Todd!!

Gee how do I cope -- it actually depends on the day.

On the cruise they actually have no sugar/sugar free desserts which are actually really good so I usually have them. I've only had one which was gross.

At the world I might have the sugar free dessert but they are much more limited -- sorry but you can only have so many sugar free brownies which don't taste as good. I usually just have a bite or two of the dessert and hope that Jim will eat the rest or that it's quicklly removed from the table.

My real problem is that if my blood sugar gets too high I fall asleep and have a mini nap. I have been known to have an ice cream from the Main Street Bakery and then sleep through It's a Small World.

At WDW I can usually get away with eating a bit more because of all the walking but have to admit that dark shows are a danger to me. I see the beginning, nap and then see the end.

How are you going to cope?

Fiona

My local Walmart has the Wii Fit in stock. I just don't have the money to buy the whole system right now. Later next month I will get my Iphone and the Wii is scheduled for a late June purchase. It's crazy that I'm planning my big purchases just like I plan my vacations. At least the Toy Story Mania game won't be released until the fall.

Everyone go to my Facebook pic NOW.

I'm not on facebook yet, what am I missing?

 

[tickledtink33]

A kitchen cabinet, a wall, and a tile floor -- all very artistically decorated with a black permanent marker.

OMG! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

I take it this wasn't professional artwork
