Girls Only Disneyland Trip!! Old thread. New link in first post

[disney-super-mom]

Beth, I'm so glad to hear that Adam is doing great.

Well, I did the taxes and e-filed them today. Thank goodness that's done. We're getting a nice refund.

I still need to iron a Tink onto my shirt.....gotta get on that.

Hmmmmm, what else?......nothing I guess. Aren't I full of excitement today.

 

[stacielee]

Happy DVC ownership, Cheryl! Looking forward to the tour in a few weeks.

I had a thought in the middle of the night last night that I forgot to mention earlier. What are we going to do about a group picture this year? Not all of us are doing the VIP tour, so it won't be convenient like last year was.

Should we try to plan a time for everyone to meet in front of the castle for a group shot together? That's not on the itinerary yet, is it??

I know I had something else I was going to ask, but it's escaping me completely. Well, I'm off with the family to get some dinner out. I think we're going to Fudruckers. Ladies, I have officially lost the battle with trying to lose weight prior to this trip.

I'll check in later!

I'm joining you in the Official Lost-the-Battle club, too. I had such grand plans... too bad I like food way more than I should!

I was thinking about this also. I wonder if we couldn't do it before the hunt since we will be together in our shirts for it. Those not doing the hunt could plan to meet us for a few minutes for the pic. That's my two cents for what it's worth!!

It seems like that would be a good time, so I'm IN!!

 

[Stacerita]

I was out earlier today to get stuff for the trip, and I couldn't find half of what I was looking for. I'm a little irriated.

 

[kelmac284]

Molly I'm so sorry about your friends kitty. So sad!

That sounds good about the group pic. I was wondering about that myself. I agree that would probably be the best time since we will all be in our Tink shirts!

So excited to watch Survivor tonight. Lost was another good one last night! Can't wait for next week again! Lovin my tv lately. Esp American Idol. Now it is going to start getting good since they have the top 36 picked.

I can't believe 3 weeks from today we will be there!! Can't wait!

I too have lost my battle. We worked out twice this week and I am SOO sore and would you believe instead of losing I have GAINED. Of course my eating hasn't been that great but I swear my appetite went up from working out but it also doesn't help that we had the birthday last weekend and now I have my anniversary this weekend. And sorry but I am NOT going to eat lettuce. We are probably going to Macaroni Grill cuz that is where our Gift Cert is for and there is NOTHIGN lo cal there LOL. I am not even going to worry about it. We will workout again next week but I will just do what I can do and if I lose I lose and if I don't I don't. I sure as heck am not going to worry about it on the trip I can tell you that. I am going to eat anything and everything I want I can tell you that!

I can lose AFTER the trip!

I just want to enjoy myself and I think that is what everyone should do! Live it up I say! To heck with everything else. This is our time to have a blast and damn the consequences. You have the rest of your life to worry about it but have a blast while you are there I say! Live it up!!!

 

[cccdisney]

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone! I am feeling much better!
I have not slept so much during the day since well - since I don't remember when! I think my body needed it.
Beth - glad things went well with your son's surgery! I can't wait to meet you and the other LV ladies next weekend! I keep checking to see if they have put the final schedule up for her cheer competition - no luck yet! Will keep you posted.
I also am looking forward to Survivor tonight! Not sure why - some seasons are better than others for sure.

Anyone contemplating purchasing the Deluxe AP at Costco with the $50 giftcard? I've been seriously considering it and was wondering if anyone else is considering it too.

Do any of you Southern California ladies know if they are still selling the AP with the $50 giftcard at the area Costco stores down there? Where is the closest Costco to Disneyland?

 

[tinkermell]

Hi Everyone!


Well I am exausted, and ready to hit the hay!

Tuesday we sold $48,000.00 worth of food, and yesterday $54,000.00!!! We sold so many sandwiches yesterday, that last night we had to cut up some more steaks. I didn't get home until 8:30, and I still had to add up some big charge accounts. Not sure yet what we made today. I could figure it out, but I just don't care right now. "Tomorrow is another day," as Scarlett would say, and nobody has to know right away. Anyways, I think we had a record breaking year.

So what has been happening as of late?

Anymore team names picked out?

I'm thinking of buying some comfortable flip flops for our trip. Fairycat/Heather has some favorites called Montrail Molokinis, and I also found some comfy looking ones from Clark. I was thinking of ordering from Zappos. Free shipping both ways!

Have a good night!

 

[lulubelle]

Cheryl, are you here?
I PM'd you but I think we need to talk tonight.
I volunteered to be the captain of the other team but I need the info from Cheryl. And I don't need a place to sleep so you guys are good calling the beds and couch.

Amy, I cried when I read your post as our beloved 13 yo siamese cat Coco is exhibiting the exact symptoms you described. We have an appointment with her vet Sat morn and I am now suspecting kidney failure. She stopped eating kibble altogeher and only eats a little soft. But she drinks water by the cupful. She normally weighs 9 lbs but I know she's lost a least a few, she feels boney. I know from scooping her box, the pee clumps are the size of a postcard and poo pellets like a chapstick tube. Usually they are close to the same size. It's only been about ten days. Last year she stopped eating much kibble and she had a bad tooth. After the vet pulled it (and cleaned her teeth), she was normal again. We were hoping that's what is was this time. Man oh man this will be hard for me if it's not. Cheryl and I both posted pix of our kitties on an earlier thread. They are all darling

Fabuloso--have a well-deserved night of rest!

I was at DL signing my Grand Cal docs!! But I'm home now. I just pm'd you with all the info and my cell number--so if you need more info let me know.

Just so everyone knows--Linda and I are going ahead and signing up the two teams.

Linda is signing up:

Linda
her daughter Bree (if she doesn't want to play we can sub later)
Stacerita
Grumpyvet

I will be signing up:

Me
Wendylady36
fairykin
zoemakes5

I'm just warning the gals on "my" team that I may come up with a silly team name. May not--but might. Maybe I'll steal one from the scavenger hunt!

They actually will have no idea about who is who. so if we want to re-arrange teams later we can. we can pretend to be each other for a day!

Amy: if you see this tonight, please PM your email address to lulubelle. It's not crucial, but would mean that you would then get email notices from the folks doing the game.


and Linda--I hope Coco turns out to be ok! We both have 13 year olds. Mine's having issues too.

 

[QueenDoOver]

First things first. I WILL BE IN DISNEYLAND IN ABOUT 40 HOURS
Yep, I'm a little bit excited!

Cute name! I've added it to the front.



Me either. I keep trying drinks hoping to find one I like and then they taste terrible to me. The only one I've ever liked was something called a Fuzzy Navel. It was ok.




Well, I've been reading but haven't felt much like posting. Tomorrow Ruben will take Adam off for his surgery while I stay with the girls to get them off to school.
Funny, before he went to bed Adam gave me a hug and told me it was going to be ok.

Anyway, night all!

Glad Adams doing well! Um...Fuzzy Navels are disgusting!

I missed most of the alcohol discussion, but feel like I have to put my two cents in....I fell in love with Lemon Drops (yep, tastes just like the candy) at my ex-work's holiday party. I could get into BIG trouble with those!!!!!
Seems like there's quite a lot of people interested in doing Mousequest. Could we do two teams? I won't have email access for the rest of the day, they're kicking me off here. Many of you have my cel phone, if we can work it out, let me know! Or, simply add me in and then we'll figure out the details. I could try making the calls and getting in on it tomorrow.

Oh, and I'm putting it out there again....anyone want to meet me on Tues., 2/17 to go around DLR for my bday? Or maybe just for lunch or something?

Michelle! I will meet up with you. I will PM my cell phone which I will have with me. Either just me or me and the fam will help you celebrate

I have something weird about me that I need to share.

Hi, my name's Heather, and I'm addicted to new underwear, especially for a trip.

I'm fighting the urge hard to buy more because I really don't need more, but I'm having a hard time.

I need an UNDERWEAR INTERVENTION!!!

OK, that's all for now.

Talk with you fine folks later, oh and you all have me wanting to try a lemon drop. I love love love appletinis. Have you ever had one with a cinnamon sugar rim? You haven't lived unless you have. Tastes just like apple pie. Yum!!!

Ha! I like new underwear too!

Applepietini-Sounds Great!

Do any of you Southern California ladies know if they are still selling the AP with the $50 giftcard at the area Costco stores down there? Where is the closest Costco to Disneyland?

I bought it! There is one really close to DL.

Thanks Linda and Cheryl for being Captains!

Linda - I just sent you a PM with amy's email in case she is not checking in tonight.

Cheryl - Congrats on signing your documents.

 

[toocherie]

Linda: please let me know you got the instructions!! Thanks!!

 

[lulubelle]

Ok, I think I got all the info now.
And if someone else wants to play, by all means speak up. I offered up DD cause I know she will do it, but she would do it more for me. Anyway, it should be fun!

Cheryl, I signed all my docs last weekend. It was really quick and we were in and out in about 20 minutes. And man, are Bree and I excited for the cruise! We are going to try and go this Sept because my DD loves hot weather, the hotter the better!

 

[lulubelle]

Cheryl...one question...
Do I have to be signed up as a member of that board? Or can I just click on the link and register our team in the morning? If so, I need to register tonight, right?

Sorry everybody to be a highjacker.

thanks again--I'll "talk" with you tomorrow!

 

[fairykin]

Thank You CheryL and Linda for making the arrangements. I appreciate you both handling this.

Callie... i don't know if i've thanked you for the work your family has done on the lanyards.. but i can't wait to see them and it's really nice of you to help make the trip so speciaL.

 

[lulubelle]

I will register now.

And Heather, I feel your pain.

I am excited for the cruise too--but it completely bolloxed (is that the right word?) up all my plans. Remember I was going to do a solo trip to WDW and stay at Boardwalk? Well then when I was going to buy all those points, we re-scheduled to use the developer points and stay at SSR and I was going to take my mom after all. Then the cruise thing came up (because I had asked originally and was told no) and in the meantime I had already let my Boardwalk reservation go! so now I'm staying at SSR on a solo trip again--but couldn't get the first night~! So I'm staying the first night on cash at POFQ and then moving the next morning (which is probably better because then I can get my choice of where I want to be in the resort (hopefullY). And I'm waitlisted for the Boardwalk. If they had just announced the cruise thing three days earlier I wouldn't have this mess.

 

[Stacerita]

March better up and get here.
