Dis fam, I am not going back to WDW until 12/23, in exactly 459 days. I'm so homesick for Disney I could just cry. But we're just not in a position to make the trip before then. What do you do to hold you over? I hang out on these boards, play the park music to cheer me up...what else helps you?
 
Today I realized I had the little tube of Disney H20 hand lotion in my purse. I had stuck it in a pocket and forgotten it. I pulled it out between classes (teacher) and put some on. Instant happiness! That scent is so unique.

Sometimes I also let some of the Youtube videos of the Disney resort TV channel play on my television while I do housework.

I tweak plans endlessly as well...although I have found I can overdo this and get a little burnt out. So, I will back away from the planning if there is still a long time before the trip. Then, as the time draws closer, I get the fever and start diving into the plans again.

And of course...I come here!
 
In addition to everything the PP's said, we love to recreate our favorite meals! Lots of Disney recipes online. :)
 

I plan constantly, tweak the plans, work out dining reservations, plan the next trip after that and so on :-)

Also watch every Disney vlog there is on youtube. Re-watch our own vlogs. Follow Disney people on instagram, I am constantly getting pieces of Disney.
I highly recommend watching vlogs and other Disney content creators. My favorite is Paging Mr. Morrow. There is also The Dis, Mickey Views, Super Enthused, Disney Food Blog, Kyle Pallo, and Tom Does Disney. There are a ton more but those are just some off the top of my head.
 
I was in the same spot you’re in well over a year ago. I watched a ton on YouTube, read lots of forums, and plan. You’ll get through it! I was happy that my trip coincided with the new magic band release!
 
I haven't been since October 2013! I keep the magic in my life by watching A LOT of Disney vloggers on YouTube. Also, following people on Instagram has helped through the years. Keep up with the daily news from the parks.
