[Marshay]

Hey Marshay

Hope you get something figurered out. November or December would be a great time to go

I would..buy those tickets and rock out girl

My dates are Dec 2nd-8th

Thanks! We are still working this...I checked our budget to see where we are on the bills...and if DH can refinance our mortgage (currently at 6%), then we will take the savings each month for WDW and that should pay for airfare and food.

The dates we are looking at are either Dec 5-8 or Dec 12-15. If the earlier, I'd love to meet you!

Oh that's AWESOME!!!! We HAVE to do a Dis meet if you go in early December. Sharky will be there too. My dates are November 28th - December 5th. I'm not quite sure what Sharky's are....I know they over lap but she'll be there after I leave. I think they're staying through until December 7th?

And yeah I totally know what you mean about not wanting to let yourself get overly excited over a trip that might not happen. I hope it does. Even more so now if you go in early December. I really hope we overlap!

Oh, it looks like if we pick the Dec 5-8 dates we *may* overlap depending when you leave and when we arrive but that probably won't work out.

If we go, I want to take the first flight out which is usually around 6am or so but DH thinks we should do a later flight, which is more reasonable when trying to get everyone going in the AM. So at the earliest we'd be there by Noon...

So, for those of you that don't know I wanted to fill you in on what has been going on with my Disney reservations for our trip in December. I don't know if you all remember or not but when I canceled our house that we had booked for that trip a few weeks ago I was going to have my friend Rebecca look into seeing what kind of discount she could score for us. Well, it turns out that since she works at the Rainforest Cafe at AK she can qualifies for the Disney employee discount!!! And that is a whopping 50% OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you believe it!? Neither can I! So, she called last night to book our rooms for us at Pop century and was told that the rooms they have set aside for CM's for that time were sold out so she tried All Star Movies and that was available and she booked two rooms. We wanted joining so she got joining and was told that we can get both joining rooms as King rooms (which wasn't available at all at POP). Also, All Star Movies is where Sharky is staying for her trip so now we will be ultra close to her and that makes me very happy! So everything is working out just perfectly for this trip. I think this is going to be a GREAT do-over trip for last year's really crappy trip. I'm so happy and excited and glad. And with the money that we're saving by booking our rooms through Rebecca I'm going to go and buy myself a Digital SLR camera like I've wanted for the last 4 years. So my TR for December should be full of some really great pictures taken with my really cool new camera. I SO can't wait for this trip. I just cannot describe in words how freaking beside myself with excitement I am. And now to top it off I might get to meet Marshay if their December trip works out too? This trip just keeps getting better and better. Now who else is going to be there in December?? C'mon you guys! You know you want to go!!

OH, this is soooooo great!!! 50% off!!! That totally rocks. And now you get to be near Sharky and have a camera. I'm THRILLED for you!!!

Well, even though it looks like we won't be able to run into one another I hope you guys can get it figured out so you can go and then you can at least meet Sharky. I tried to talk Chris into staying until the 6th but he wants that day to unwind from Disney laughing and get laundry and stuff done around the house before we have to be slammed back into work on the following Monday.

Thanks Marshay! I'm really excited about it all too. I just can't wait!!

 

[hornzb]

WooHoo!! You came on. Glad to have ya back here sis! You know that everyone here is more than happy to help with any questions or help you may need. What are all the parks you're going to again? I forget! LOL

Thank you, thank you... We are going to MK and either Epcot or MGM (Hollywood). Other than that, we are hitting Universal, Medieval Times, Chef Mickey's and maybe Gatorland. Hopefully beach will fit in somewhere too. Been saving up for this darn trip for almost a year now. First vacation for the kids and me in two years.

Hi Michelle, nice to meet ya!

Ah okay super sweet! Still haven't made the decision btwn MGM and EPCOT yet huh? How bout go to whatever park is open the latest? Love Medieval times and Chef Mickey's will be awesome. Never been to Gatorland. Will be interested to hear what you think of that. Maybe you can go to Cocoa beach

Yeah, I know you are more than ready for this vacation. I'm really glad you get to go!

Wow! Fifty percent is amazing. More money for the important stuff!

We have to have those priorities straight!

 

[Leger13]

We have to have those priorities straight!

LOL yeah no joke. I know mine are in the right place. Buy a camera...don't pay off credit cards

 

[cherbear]

Hey Chrismiss

I wanna see(lthanks Chele for being me )


I love them...very sexy


My dates are Dec 2nd-8th

sorry I couldn't post the other 2. One were some cute brown heels (sort of a bigger peep toe type) for only $9.97 and some skechers laceless tennis shoes for $25--mostly white with some pink in the laces area. I needed white tennis shoes. And I love not having laces!

Oh man that story really does sound scary! Your poor mom! Why do people insist on sharing things like that!? And doing research on the internet is not all that great either. I know, I did it a LOT when I was TTC. Ugh! The internet can be good and also bad for information at the same time. I hope your Mom gets some answers from her dr soon so she can stop freaking herself out.

Well, the good news is she has an appointment today after work! I found that out yesterday evening.

Her newest symptoms are: the thing on her arm getting "redder", her left wrist has been bothering her (it's on the arm with the sores) and I don't know how often she experienced this but her feet were tingly the other day when she was sitting at the computer.

I do think she was freaked out by that story and that's one of the reasons she made an appointment (sooner than the doctor had said to come back) but I am glad she's going.

Oh that's AWESOME!!!! We HAVE to do a Dis meet if you go in early December. Sharky will be there too. My dates are November 28th - December 5th. I'm not quite sure what Sharky's are....I know they over lap but she'll be there after I leave. I think they're staying through until December 7th?

And yeah I totally know what you mean about not wanting to let yourself get overly excited over a trip that might not happen. I hope it does. Even more so now if you go in early December. I really hope we overlap!

I really wish you could be there too

MAN! I so wish I lived closer to Disney. I'd at least drive in for a day! I'm WAY too far though. Maybe I'll win the lottery and we can plan a trip! errr...I guess you have to play to win huh

Ah I was close!

Wow so it sounds like it was a successful planning day. That's so great that Josh's grandmother got your Mom to pay for things for your wedding. Major score there!!

And that's also awesome that your parents let you borrow their in window A/C unit for now until you get something better. Hopefully this isn't a fluke and the nice treatment will be the new them

I second that

Hey girls/guys/mouseketeers! I haven't been on here in a while...and thought I might stop in and see what ya'll are up to. I'm Leger13's sister, remember me?



Going to WDW next month- woo hoo!!! Staying in a timeshare villa and hitting Orlando by storm with my 4 kiddies. Can't wait!

Hey Pam! How exciting! Sounds like a fun trip. Have a good time!

well I've already been filled in but I'll say it again. AWESOMENESS!!

LOL yeah no joke. I know mine are in the right place. Buy a camera...don't pay off credit cards

 

[Trentmom]

Yeah I hear you there. I've been so slacking on my SR this past week or so. I should have $70 by now but I still only have $60. Oh well. I just got an otx this morning so I'm happy about that.





applique is coming pretty good actually. I'm working on a boarder to go on my niece's quilt and it's coming along nicely. I work on it every day after work. I haven't quilted since the last Saturday I had with my Mom. I need to get that applique done over that quilt. But it's coming along. We work on it on the Saturdays we meet and this Saturday is one of those so there will be some more done on it.

Hey girl

Like the new ticker....very cute

Doing good. Trying to get caught back up on here. I was doing good there for a while. *sigh*

To post pictures start up an account on www.photobucket.com (it's free). Upload the pictures you want to share (I usually select the Medium size....big enough to see but not too HUGE when you post) then to post them here just open a new post then go over to the picture on photobucket....there will be 4 different codes....you want the last one. Copy that and then paste it in your message over here. Done!

bummer on the rain. It rains like that here too when it starts. We normally get rain for weeks at a time.

It's nice when you want to get some extra spending money for disney trips. You should try it out!! I could use another referral so if you want to sign up let me know and I'll give you the link that would give me credit for you I have 3 referrals and only one got enough money in their account to get me credit.

oh yeah ain't that the truth. I am like that in the grocery store if I go when I'm hungry. I just want to buy everything!

I think Anoop is really trying but I doubt he'll last much longer. I can't stand Lil!



Oh that's AWESOME!!!! We HAVE to do a Dis meet if you go in early December. Sharky will be there too. My dates are November 28th - December 5th. I'm not quite sure what Sharky's are....I know they over lap but she'll be there after I leave. I think they're staying through until December 7th?

I already heard about this but SCORE!! You go girl!!



See above for my dates



I really wish you could be there too



I know I really need to bust it out. *sigh*

Very close girl

Ah I was close!

Sweet on the camera. Can not wait to see those pics

Hi Michelle, nice to meet ya!

Sounds like you have a lot of great stuff planned.

I am with Carla, Go with whatever park has the later hours.

 

[Trentmom]

Hey guys.. so planing didnt go quite like planing.. it was more like Joshs grandma telling us how things were going to happen.. no ones opinion was to be heard by her.. but everything she said sounds nice and pretty and stuff.. I am not a bit worried that my wedding wont be well organized and beautiful.. she did my baby shower really nicely.. so whatever.. the only opinion I got was colors.. which I decided to go with pinkish colors.. its gunna be nice.. we are going to do a ceremony at her house and were gunna get married between her pool and hot tub and there are going to be flowers floating in them and flowers on the fence.. and its going to be nice.. I have faith in her.. what I thought was funny was the fact that so far my mom and dad havent said they were going to help financially or effort wise (like preparing stuff and stuff) and Joshs grandma has no problem being blunt about things and she looked at my mom and put her on the spot.. she said "so what are you guys doing to help because Charlotte, Randy, Josh, and Steph cant really afford it alone" so now my parents are buying my dress and shoes and Joshs slacks (because he already has a shirt and tie and shoes) and giving Charlotte like $200 for food and decorations.. i was like wow... if you know how my parents have been recently you would be like like I was... but I lived through it.. i thought my mom was going to cry because Joshs grandma kept putting her on the spot.. and i know if Joshs grandma says something I dont like tho she may not listen to me, if i tell Joshs mom she will make sure it doesnt happen or tell me his grandmas logic on why its best that way!


and to those of you with rain i envy you.. its been like 90 degrees in my house.. too hot for the mister so he was at Joshs parents house the past few days but my parents brought me their in the window AC to use till we get AC ( again btw) so it will be cooler in my house! but in the summer it gets like 115 in winters!

I am glad you have Josh grandma helping you. SOund slike she knows what she is doing and it will be very nice

Pink is a great color

Score on her getting your parents to chip in

 

[Trentmom]

Cheri....Keep us posted on how your mom's dr appt goes tnite

Cheri....Keep us posted on how your mom's dr appt goes tnite

Well, good news. He actually did something proactive this time. He gave her stronger antibiotics and did some more bloodwork--he's testing for lyme disease for one, I don't know what else. Also she told me her other lymph nodes behind her knees are also swollen now too.

I am not sure exactly when she will get the b/w results back. But when I hear back I will let y'all know.

For now, it's goodnight...

I am glad to hear they are doing some more bloodwork. Hopefully they can get to the bottom of this soon

me too! I am SO glad she went back to the dr. He didn't want to see her for "a couple weeks" but I KNEW she needed to get in. Don't tell someone who's in pain, here take these pain pills and see me in 2 weeks. That doesn't fix the problem!

 

[kaoden39]

Cheri, I am glad that the DR was finally proactive and did something. I just love the take this pain pill and go away attitude of the DR's.
