*Girls DL Trip* OLD THREAD

Morning all!

I didn't watch Idol last night but I HEARD what happened and I am stunned. I won't talk about it in case there are some who haven't seen it yet but WOW!

And how about the Lost watchers! WOW that was a crazy finale! So for those who watched it what did you think? Good, bad? I watched all the way from the 8 o'clock explanation show till 11. WHEW that was crazy but I don't know HOW I feel. All I can say is if they end up having everything go back to normal and THAT is the way they end it there will be a LOT of ticked off people! Also I am not too happy about the whole Sawyer Juliette Kate thing. I wasn't sure about Julliete in the beginning but I feel like Kate and Jack belong together and I think it is bull that she keeps going back and forth.

Anyway yesterday I ended up NOT going in to work. I went to my doc apt and then mom called and said they were FINALLY back from truckee. I was right across from the Galleria and I had a coupon for the Children's place that I needed to use because it was going to expire. They have this perks program that every time you buy stuff you get points and then you get coupons for so much off and I had a 10 dollar off coupon but it expired on the 10th so I was hoping they would still honor it and they did. Also their Disney store was moving and re-opening and they were having this big grand opening sale with give aways but I missed it by a few days. It opens MONDAY! BUT the old store had 40% off a bunch of stuff so I still got a few good deals there too. But anyway so then mom wanted me to stop by so I did and I was trying to show her how my Ipod works cuz we are thinking about switching phones to the Iphone and then by the time we got done with ALL of that it was time to pick the girls up from school. So we did that and then she had to go to the grocery store so we went with her there and then home. So she is just going to go in to work today and deal with the junk and I am just going to go in tomorrow and tackle the mess. That is the nice thing about having a family business is you can have flexible hours. :) She ended up not going in yesterday either. It was kind of nice. I told her we REALLY need to start thinking about our hotels though for D.C. because she is going to be leaving for her Mexico trip soon and we need to get that booked. So that is our next order of business. Plus I need to figure out some sort of itinerary. I am still just boggled about that. I have talked to the girls and we know pretty much WHERE we want to go just not when and how because I don't know how long each place is going to take and where every place is located in proximity to where we are going to be staying etc. So it is a little overwhelming trying to plan. But I guess we will just try to map it out and hope that it works out. I just wish I knew someone that has been and didn't have to rely on the books.

Anyway today I just have to do some chores round here and run to the post office. I have to buy some stamps since the postage went up and check my mail and of course we have swim again tonight. I FINALLY heard that we ARE decorating the float on Friday but ony for an hour so we may try to go to the movies Friday night after. We'll see. Anyway that's pretty much my day in a nutshell.

Hope everyone has a good day! :)

Morning Divas, safe travels to those lucky people & a super Thursday for those of us doing the daily grind.......
 

Hi girls!
I'm just popping in to say good morning. I hope you all have a great day!
I didn't get a chance to log on last night, so I'll catch up this afternoon when I get home from my job.
See you later!
 
:drive: Hi all and Good morning! I am working and packing in between emails and calls. I wanted to stop by to say safe travels to everyone traveling this weekend. Wishing everyone a great time at DL this weekend...can't wait to hear all about it upon your return. I'll try to stop back before leaving for Denver but if I don't make it back happy weekend everyone!!:grouphug:

Stacelee - Happy BD to your DD!
 
actually--I've been more thinking "not" about tours--this last trip seemed so jam-packed that I'm afraid no one had much "downtime" just to explore the park and ride rides--so I'm hoping since we are expanding the trip maybe we won't have as much "pre-planned" every day so we can just explore and enjoy the parks with each other. I know I could have solved part of the problem by just not booking as much, but it's hard when you want to be with everyone! And it isn't like anything wasn't fun (well, other than the VIP tour) so it's really hard! then I start thinking--wouldn't a breakfast at Steakhouse 55 be a nice change (no characters--not to spendy) and then I get sucked back into the planning mode again!

This might sound like a silly question (I know there is no such thing as a silly question), but with the Divas meets, do we spend every second together or do we schedule meet times? My mom wants to make this a special trip with me and I know she'll want to have some mommy daughter time I'm sure. I just wanted to check.

Ok...........I just looked it up! I will try and post a pic. Hope I don't get into trouble here.

Ummmmmmmmmmmm...these were not the Hot Pants I was thinking of. :scared1:
:rotfl2: Perfect example!

NOBODY TALK ABOUT LOST PLEASE! If you do could you post a bold warning sign at the top so I don't read. Thanks I will be forever grateful. It's my favorite show of all time and it might sound stupid but my artwork is highly inspired by JJ Abrams (maker of the show for those who don't know) so it's really personal. I haven't watched the last couple of episodes yet! Ever since I got my MacBook Pro for Graduation I've been obsessed with watching Lost after it airs abc.com HDstreaming because this monitor is better than any plasma TV I've ever seen! I've been so busy lately though... I've been slacking on my Lost.
 
Michelle, you can spill about any tv show to me. I won't know what you are talking about since I have never seen Idol/Bachelor/Biggest loser/SUrvivor/Big brother/Apprentice...

Need I go on? Dish, g'head. I am ALL ears!!!

I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED BIG BROTHER....:sad2:
 
Bridgette... my mom and i didn't do all the organized stuff last year because we wanted to go at our own pace and also have down time to just do things together.:goodvibes

So plan what works for you. Do a mix of the both, mom time and girls time.

Same here. DD is usually not with me the entire time, so when she is not I hang with the group. Then we spend some quality mom/daughter time alone as well. Like last year she worked on Friday and I stayed with the group doing whatever was planned all day and then met DD at the hotel around 6 pm and we had dinner offsite (MCCormick & Schmidt - soooo yummy!) and went to the jacuzzi with a bottle of Rosa Regale. You can spend as much or as little time with the Divas as you wish.:)

Like the others said, you can spend as much time as you want with the group, or you can do as much solo time as you need. As the schedule comes out, you can pick and choose and see what works best for you and your mom. I would suggest you try to make it to the meet and greet, a few meals, the group pics, and the scavenger hunt. Those are a lot of fun. The meet and greet was great last year and everyone got a chance to meet and see who they have been posting to all this time. The meals gives us time to talk and socialize, and you don't want to miss out on the pics. The scavenger hunt last year was a highlight to me (not just because my team won either), but it was so much fun. It all comes down to what you feel like doing. Last year I did skip a meal I was signed up for because I needed some down time. The year before I also had more alone time. So whatever works for you will work.
 
Morning ladies!!

Bridgette, I see your question was already answered about the trip. :thumbsup2

Safe travels to all those taking off somewhere. Gosh, it seems like a lot of you are.
Not me though. Nope, not one little plan for the weekend. Sitting at home. Twirling my thumbs.
Maybe I'll make cake balls......
 
Vicki.. safe travel!:hug:

StaciegirL... what's for luncH?:rotfl:

I so want cake balls. I am gonna bribe my instructor with them.

Vicki.. safe travel!:hug:

StaciegirL... what's for luncH?:rotfl:

Havent decided yet. I just made brownies though.

Riiiiight. :rolleyes: ;)



Me too.

Make red velvet cake balls!

Those would be yummy.
 
Except I know from your excellent trip report that it was misery for people to get up that early. We won't have daylight savings but the more we can put this tour on a morning when we're not up really late for a party or whatever the night before, the better. It is the only thing on the agenda that has to be soooo early as it's offered before the park opens.

Oh for pities sake. I finally reach 1000 posts and I waste it on a rant about declawing cats. You'd think I was on the CB!!!!

I'm really glad you did.

Oh, and my cats both kept all their claws.

:banana:

No I totally understand. The "twins" we had were declawed when they were little. There are alot of places that only allow you to rent if you have declawed cats, we had them fixed and declawed all in one fell swoop. They recoved from it well. Even still there are alot that won't rent to you if you have cats that aren't declawed. We got Zoe's cat when she was already 2.5 and didn't want to do anything that late, but we cannot get her to stop shredding things. It's terrible. We use the water spray, we have a ton of stratching posts and it's still the carpet, the kids papers, backpacks and duffle bags and suitcases. I wanted an honest opinion. Thanks for giving me an honest opinion.

And congrats on your 1000 posts!!!

I'm really against declawing. Keep the claws trimmed regularly, have posts at locations when you first enter rooms and look into sprays sold at pet stores or online. Soft claws, people suggested. Suitcases and stuff, just keep put away.

Wishing everyone safe trips!
