I am on a mission.......after weeks of hearing my patients tell me they are either going on a Disney Cruise or going to WDW, I have been sulking because it is so long before I go. Last night I told my DH that I couldn't believe the amount of people that have said they were going (also I have helped a few with their planning in the past couple of weeks), and that if I heard one more this week I was going to shoot myself. This morning, my second patient of the day at 7:15 am. what does he say, "I am taking my family to WDW next month" AHHHHH! :furious:

Sooooooo.......the thought crossed my mind....if I can find subtle yet inspired ways of driving my DH crazy over the next say ohhh, 10 months or so, I bet he would cave and take me WDW for a quick trip....has anyone else done this or any ideas???????
 
CRY! It always works for me,lol......No really I hope you get to go....I know what you mean everyone is going latley and they always come to me with their plans....I should start Charging!.
 
I am trying to get my dh to go for a quick weekend for his birthday. The two of us went in december , no kids, and I just went for a girls weekend. We are planning again in June and Thanksgiving, but these still don't seem to be enough for me. Now I am working on getting my dh to move there. He might give into his birthday before he ok's moving!! Good luck to you and lots of whining should do the trick!!! :sad1:
 
Plan a nice long weekend for just the 2 of you as a special treat for him. Throw in some spa treatments and a romantic meal or two. Don't wait for him to take you. Sheesh, if I waited we'd never go on vacation :rolleyes: . Shower the man with some TLC and whisk him away to the happiest place on earth :sunny:
 
Luckily - I just do the planning and tell DH when he needs to take days off.
 
I don't understand your DHs, listen divorce them I will bring you, one of them can have my DW. JK of corse, but how can I get my DW to let us go sooner than late 07?

:rotfl: I don't mind even planning for next year, not so sure about the actual CRYING part, but I can whine pretty well! I am going to start working away... :) Whine Whine Whine!!!

Lol :rotfl2: ....well you don't live far from me...perhaps they could entertain each other while we go...(joking of course)

Actually my DH likes to go to WDW, just not nearly as often as me. I am going to work on the whining bit and perhaps after a few months of that he will start to break down...

We talk about our next big WDW vacation (which is 3 years and 2 months away) at least once a week, and of course when I see something different or have an idea about something to add or do I am quick to mention it. I know I am sick!!!

I once kept making up WDW "personalized" letters to my DH complete with pictures of MM and all the parks and characters. (Do them using Disney font)
:goodvibes :goodvibes

Once or twice I week I would mail them to him "Priority Mail" with no return address. :yay: :yay:


Took him a few weeks before he realized I was sending them but by then he was hooked again. :cool1: :cool1:

Oh my gosh, what a great idea!!! :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl:
I can't wait to try this! What is the "disney" font, not sure what you mean. Did you use letterhead etc..?

Also, did he not look at the postmark??

Never occured to him to check the postmark. :confused3

Disney font is a choice you make when typing in ms word. You have to download it from the web. Go to this site - http://www.fontseek.com/fonts/disney.htm It's free and you install it on your pc.
 
Ask him to take you as a birthday, anniversary, or Christmas present. That's what I did this year. I asked DH to take me as our Christmas present to each other. We had a few presents for each other but our big one was our trip. He said yes, and I started planning. I had everything booked up before he knew what happened! It was his first trip to the World, and we had a wonderful time. He became a believer in the magic.
 
it's also in email... maybe you could get a hotmail acc't and email dh from it... anonymously of course!

i'm in the same boat... dh/kids/i sat down the other night and we planned our vacations for the next few YEARS and as it turns out, everyone has so much they want to do and see that wdw got pushed back to 2010!!! that's FOUR years away! i cannot wait that long! (i do, however, have some airline credit, and we have some tickets leftover, and i do have a disney visa that if i use it/pay it off enough, will have some reward dollars just lurknig... so, i am thinking of inviting a dis-freak friend like myself for a few days next winter... it can't hurt to dream!)
 
I think I am going to try a little bit of everything and a whole lot of whining...

I would suspect that he would have to give in at least by the end of the year!!!!!!
 
Do what I do...plan a SOLO TRIP! Maybe hubby will be so jealous he will want to tag along!

Btw - my DH doesn't want to go to WDW. I was there on our anniversary last October and he stayed home!
 
Another option is to go with someone else! I am going with my mom in April and my sister in July! It makes for a cheaper trip because we are not paying for the both of us.

I feel your pain!! Every time we see that commercial where the couple is lying in bed and they can't sleep and the DW says, "Are you asleep?" and the DH says, "I'm too excited." I say to my DH, "Argh, I married the wrong guy!"

Our next trip that he has agreed to is February 2009!!! (My 40th...) I'll never make it!!!
 
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
"let's go to Disney, hon"
