How am I going to make it??

[mom2faith]

I can't do this!! I just can't do this!!

I WANNA GO NOW!!!

I have 25 days left, and for the last 2, time has stood still. I cannot believe how excited I am, I never anticipated this!! Now I have Disney Fog (Similar to Baby Fog or Baby Brain) I am USELESS!! I cannot do anything, I cannot accomplish anything. I know everything I am doing: IE 4 weeks from right now I will be at Epcot and then off to Coral Reef. I relive it over and over and... well YKWIM!!

So, now what, what is a Obsessive Compulsive Disney Planner to do now that the trip is planned and it is still a 3 1/2 week waiting game??

HELP ME!!

The wait is killing me also!!! I hate to wish my time away, but I am so ready to go!!! I have 29 Days to go!!

I wish I had the answer. We are at 24 days and I can't stand it anymore. I don't want to do my work at the office (I have filing stacked so high I can't see over the pile anymore); I don't want to watch television. At this time on vacation, we would be at Epcot and having dinner at LeCellier.

I know what you mean! I'm three weeks out now and think about it way too much! My coping method was to book another trip in the meantime... I'm going to Maui to see my sister for 10 days! Yay! That should help take my mind off the Disney wait! Once I get back from Maui, I'll only have a few days to go until Disney! (Yeah, I know I'm spoiled!)

Oh my gosh, the wait is killing me too! From your countdown ticker, it looks like your check in day is about the same as ours. We will be arriving very late on September 2, at the Pop. Want to be countdown buddies?? LOL!

Trust me...I AM DYING TO LEAVE TOO!!!!

 

[mom2faith]

KatMark and marciemouse looks like we all arrive the same day - Sept 1!!

20 days 20 days 20 days

Yeah I am very productive today!! (again)

I am also feeling the waiting game, however I have longer to go than you guys - I still have 39 days to go! SO and I play the "how many days left" game every day (and have been for a few months truth be told ).

Fortunately (or unfortunately, however you want to look at it) I am super busy with work right now and putting in 55+ hours a week, so my days are going by rather fast (KatMark-I feel your pain about stacks on your desk so high you can't see over them, last Thanksgiving when we went to WDW we ate offsite on Thanksgiving night [made ressies too late to get an onsite restaurant] and stopped in one of those Kissimmee area souvie shops and they had funny stickers and signs, one of which said "I am very organized-everything is in one big pile" which I brought back for a co-worker as a joke. She taped it to a piece of paper on which she wrote under the sign's words "just like Disney845's office" and hung it on her office door!!)

I also have a business trip coming up the first week in September that I am preparing for, and excited to go because when I get back I know that I will not have too long to be back at the office before our Disney trip.

I just received our trip docs in the mail today and have already taken one of the luggage tags and put it with my purse to take into the office tomorrow, just so I can hang it up and look at it and dream of leaving for WDW.

It is consuming me too!!! I think about it everyday!

 

[proteus]

I had the same problem. I invent things to do that are Disney related. Making a Disney resort screen saver, creating 3 Disney CD's with music, ride soundtracks, documentary shows on Disney, and reading up on Disney trivia.

I'm half at work and half there already. 8 Days to Go!!

I work parttime @ Home Depot. I'm a kitchen designer & moonlight in the paint dept. About a week ago, as I'm mixing paint for someone else, my co-worker is asked for a quart of Behr's disney alien green paint. I almost stop right there & wanted to connect with this man and his three kids. " Is this about disboards?" "Are you going to WDW?" Where are you staying?" .

And then I held back & thought "ok, crazy lady, slow down, remember if this guy doesn't know what I'm talking about then all my co-workers (mostly cocky 20yr old guys) will only give me grief for it.

It's so nice to have others that relate. I get excited whenever we go to disneyland (it's about an hour away). But this 1st trip to WDW, already feels so different (especially on the wallet). 5 weeks out & I find myself already having way to much fun planning ahead, making purchases to be made for "the trip", planning our wardrobe for "the trip", making a countdown calendar for "the trip".....

13 days till we leave. I've done my packing and the rest can't be packed until the night before we leave our house. I have all materials printed and categorized. Now is just the waiting...well that and we are surprizing the kids. We are going to "find a map" (which my hubby has made and we'll put it into a bottle the we have) and go look for that "treasure".... The treasure will be finding my in-laws and they will have a surprize with them telling the kids that we are all going to WDW.
