*Girls DL Trip* OLD THREAD

[mommaU4]

The front page has been rearranged and updated!!

Please take a moment to look it over. All of the planning done to this point is on there, but if I missed anything or if there are any errors, please let me know. Also take a look at the roomie list and make sure it's accurate. Thanks!!

One more thing, currently we have one group meal per day. (for the most part) We did agree to keep it at that right? It seemed like last time some felt we spent most of our time eating or rushing from one meal to the next. Not that I have a problem eating all day long while at Disney, but you know what I mean.

So share your thoughts on the meals. Does it look good the way it is? Do we need more group meals? Less? Is it just right? What do you all think?

Hi Trudi! Good to see you. The summer exchange is over, but right now we are doing the favorite character exchange and that can be found here: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?p=32244045#post32244045

There are lots of fun packages to read about! Even the kiddos got in on this one.

Thanks Beth, I guess I meant the favorite character exchange. Sarah received a great package and I wish I had joined in !!!

No problem. I sat this one out too. But I agree with Sarah, you must do the next one. It's a Halloween theme and sign-ups will begin in September. If I recall correctly, you were also a big Halloween fan. And hopefully we'll get to see you again in October. The parks are amazing at Halloween time.

Many of the ladies, if not most, have annual passes. Right now most of us are booking rooms at HoJo Anaheim using the Entertainment Rate. That gets us a premium room in Bldg. 1 for $79 a night. All our trip dates are good for the ET rate except the very last night.

I would suggest booking a room now to make sure you have one and then worry about a roommate later. It doesn't cost anything to book a room or to cancel it, but better to have it.


That's a very good rate for the premium room. Looking forward to the "pillowtop" beds.

You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

steph

Thoughts and prayers are with you.

Will be thinking of you.

I am so sorry and will be keeping you and Maddie in my thoughts and prayers.

Hugs and lots of prayers for you, January!!

You and your DD are in my prayers .

January, I just read your post. Oh hon, I am so truly sorry. If there is anything at all I can do please don't hesitate to ask. You have my home number right? Call anytime, day or night. My thought and prayers are with you and Maddie both.

Oh January, I'm so sorry! Please remember that we are all here for you!

Stop that! There is absolutely nothing wrong with asking for prayers.... ask away because I truly believe in the power of prayer. It's gotten me through many binds and I'm not a holy roller. I am going to church now, but still. I will pray for your strength as you go through the divorce proceedings. Stay strong and know you have so much support here!

Oh January. You and Maddie are in my thoughts and prayers.

Morning all.

First off January I am SOOO sorry for what you are going through. I know how tough it is as I have gone through a divorce myself. Not with a child though so I am really sorry that you have to do that but I am here for you if you EVER want to talk. If you still have the phone list you are more than welcome to call me ANYTIME and talk!! ((Hugs)) to you and you are a strong gal!! Are you still going to be able to come in Feb? If not I am sure we all understand but I sure hope so because I know I will miss you and I am sure the others will too but we will understand if you can't. Again many hugs and prayers to you and please don't hesitate to pm or call if you EVER want to talk!!

Oh January, I'm so sorry. Sounds like you gave it the best effort that you could. Take comfort that the decision was obviously not taken lightly. You are a great mom. I'm just so sorry that you're having to deal with all of this. Biggest of hugs. I'm available if you want to talk.

January - Oh babe, I'm here for you if you need anything, and of course I'll keep you in my prayers!

January, prayers going your way to help you get thru this trying time.

Wow, can I just say that all the hugs and prayers have me in tears. You all are the nicest group of ladies. I feel so lucky to have people like you in my life.

I will be honest. I am scared and lonely right now. But I know I am doing the right thing. I cannot be married to someone I can't trust. That is the bottom line. I also have no romantic feelings towards him and have not for over 3 years. For those of you who don't know-he cheated on me. Not only with my friend, but our business partner's wife. So, yeah. Low blow. He lied for a long time about it and then finally fessed up.

The support I have gotten from my family and friends has been huge! I appreciate you all.

Not to change the subject...but...I am still planning on coming in Feb. I need to have something to look forward to.

I hope you all have a wonderful evening.

 

[CaliforniaDreamer]

January, it helps when you know you are doing the right thing and from what you've said, I'm 100 percent behind you. And wise of you to be aware of your feelings too. All that helps the process.

I have been through a divorce and once you get through to the other side, it is a new awakening. We are all looking forward to seeing you in February.

January, you are definitely doing the right thing. He cheated on you and you gave him a second chance and really tried to fix things. I'm praying for you & sweet little Maddie!

 

[daisy_77]

Thanks...

I am looking forward to the new start in my life. I am just looking forward to this being over with.


When I went to the court assistance office I could not believe how many women were in there filing divorces. I was shocked. It is really sad.

 

[disney-inspired]

Thank you, Beth for updating the thread! I know we all really appreciate that you take charge of this thread.

Oh sorry Michelle, it has been crazy since I got home and I totally forgot to update you guys LOL.

Well basically we went in and got the SAME PO that we had last time and of course Lynn was NOT happy about that LOL. She was NOT happy to see Lynn's paperwork on her desk again and did NOT take any crap from her. She asked her WHY she was no longer at the grandma's and Lynn try to say that it just wasn't working out and yadda yadda and I piped up and mentioned that NO that is NOT what happened and that she ran off with the boyfriend and got kicked out and that they are no longer wanting her there at all. So she has burned THAT bridge. I am sure Lynn was po'd with me for saying that but Shane told me NOT to let her lie. Anyway then she talked about her job and she lied again telling her that she had been laid off and I SO wanted to pipe up and tell her that she only worked 4 hours and that she had asked for time off and they fired her but I just kept my mouth shut cuz I figured it really didn't matter at that point. I think the PO knew what was going on. She saw RIGHT through Lynn. Anyway then she asked about her schooling and didn't buy how she could graduate when she quit school midway through her jr year and still had all of her sr year and yet she was only going to the continuation for a few months and was supposedly going to graduate. She wanted Lynn to give me and HER the number so we could verify it and she said she didn't see how she could go in Sutter county when she is living here. I DID call the school when I got home and the teacher told me it IS illegal but since she was almost done she would overlook it but if she didn't finish by next week she would HAVE to re-enroll in a school here and start a whole new term. Anyway the PO asked my mom and I if we wanted her on informal or formal and frankly I thought she should be put on formal to teach her a lesson but again I just kept my mouth shut cuz my mom spoke up and said she wanted to give her "another chance" which is ALL she has been getting all along but whatever. So she is on informal for 6 months and she HAS to live with us or my mom. She has a curfew and can NOT break any rules. She can't smoke, drink, do drugs etc. If she were in any type of regular school she cannot have any absences etc. She is on a very short leash and she also has to do 20 hours of community service. My girls are doing vacation bible school in 2 weeks and I wanted her to do it anyway so she had something constructive to do instead of laying around the house all day and when we told her at church on Sunday she threw a fit but now she HAS to do it to get her community service hours.

Anyway the PO also told her that if she screws up even ONCE that not only does it go to formal probation and she gets arrested and goes STRAIGHT to jail but that it goes past 18 till 21. So she just doesn't get out of it when she turns 18 anymore AND it goes on her permanent record. So hopefully THIS will scare her into getting a clue. We shall see. We told her that as SOON as she gets her diploma next week, IF she does she immediately needs to go get a job. So that is her obligations for the next 6 months. When THAT is done she will be 18 and she can do what she wants. So we shall see!
