Decorations for room

Another cat photo

Love the cat photo in the box. Very cute.

 

[tankgirl427]

You can't see it from the angle I took it and one of them got up before I could take another, but Elise on the left had her paw around Jessie on the right. It was so adorable to see.

What a good start! Love the chickens! Oh, sorry, that is what we call our cats for some reason.
Glad you got into Le Cellier, I am not that big a fan, but I hope you love it.

Oh, and I feel like no one reads my trip report either...so I know what you mean!

Just looked at your decorations photo -- suction cups! I've been trying to figure out how to hang ribbons (with Disney cutouts on them) in the windows, and that's the perfect answer! Thanks for the picture! (Now, are there any suction cups hiding in the junk drawer?)

 

[tankgirl427]

I was reading a thread somewhere about decorating your room and they said suction cups and magnets. Don't write on the windows, even if you have window chalk, or use tape (painter's tape excluded).

Kitties in a box are adorable!!! How are they doing? Sounds like you are on top of the flea issue, just remember to give them their treatment next month!

I like the room decorations! It's always fun to see the decorated windows when walking around the resort.

Hey there! I wanted to tell you I stole your idea and changed the title of my PTR to shamelessly plug the fact that I now have photos from my first Disney trip -- in 1973! My dad brought the slides over today and I took photos of them to post. Now, I really, really, really need to go and do something productive that's not Disney related.

 

[tankgirl427]

They are still scratching themselves,but its not as bad.

I drove home on Friday, 3 1/2 hour drive took me 5 hours. Augh! Then I told the BF that I would be home early this afternoon and his sister wanted us to come and visit because she is leaving to go to Bulgaria for a month. And what does he do? He takes a shift working from 4pm - midnight. Nice, then tries to say in a few weeks we'll be together for a week, mind you its been a year and a half since we'd spent a whole week together. And I had to consistently ask for this vacation.

Seems like more people read it when you change the title!

 

[tankgirl427]

ok... really quick, he had the entire day off from work yesterday while I had work.. I get home he's not here, start watering the plants he shows up. go about my evening and he does whatever he does.... the entire evening not talking to each other.... I go to bed at 10pm (I was tired and hot and cranky) and in he walks at 2:30am to go to sleep. Ha! If he thought he could get away with not talking to me all night and then climbing into bed with me he has a another thing coming!

So do you think its possible because things are really not going well, for me to change his name on the reservations to my cousin's who has never been and take her instead. I would pay him back his half of the trip of course. This relationship is not headed down a good path and I don't really want to continue down it.

Thanks!

 

[Joyciemc]

Awww, sorry to hear that your BF is being difficult

Sounds like you need to have a serious talk with him. I would do that before changing the trip reservation. I obviously don't know much about your relationship, but not taking the trip with him would be a drastic step- make sure that is what would be best for you before you do it!
But I do think you can change the other person on the trip, if it comes to that.
Good luck!

Well I was up for an hour after his attempt to try and climb into bed. Right before I fell back asleep I was ready to tell him, this relationship is not working and I don't want to be in it. Pull at Burger from SATC and leave in on a note for him to find when he finally woke up.

Things have been going downhill a lot recently. Not to get crazy personal or anything, but its to a point where I think we need to talk to someone, which he refuses to do and I've been doing on my own. Maybe living together was a horribly bad idea and I should move out, but if I do he will not be able to keep his house. And although he doesn't love the cats like I do, he wouldn't let me keep them if I do move out and they are my whole life right now. They are the glimmer of happiness that gets me through work and life.

To him his priorites are me, his family, and work. To me his proirites are work, me, his family. If his family or I was his #1 priority he would be spending the time with us rather than working those shifts.

To change the tickets and meal plan to a new person would be $50. Flights are non-refundable and I would have to get a whole new airfare for my cousin.

Disney is a very special place to me. I don't know if I would want my special place tainted by how awful things have been going.

 

[GaRain]

I am sorry things are not going well.
It sounds like y'all need to have a coming to Jesus talk about your relationship.
It takes time and planning and money to make a good trip to Disney. If you are not going to enjoy your time with him there - you have to think about changing - but discuss it with him first.

Hope things get better!

I agree with Joycie, you should seriously talk with him about the disney trip and about the relationship. I don't have any answers really, but I will be praying for you.

 

[wlake]

How difficult! Everyone's right about the fact that there are no easy answers here, just a few tough conversations ahead of you. Good for you, going to talk to someone about the relationship even if he won't go with you. I hope things are going better tonight, but either way, you can come talk to us!

 

[tankgirl427]

I just wanted to thank you all for taking time out of your day and being supportive. He didn't talk to me all day, so I decided to take matters into my own hands.

I waited up until he got home from work and made him talk to me. We talked a lot in an hour and a half, but there is still a lot more talking to be done.

I was upset he took a shift, when he knew I was coming home early to be with him, and he told his sister we would come over. He was mad because I hung up on him. Granted I did say I can't talk to you anymore right now before I hung up on him. So that was why he wasn't talking to me.

I'm still like which is much better than but I want to be . Too many emoticons?

So we'll keep working on talking and trying to make things better. I just wanted to take some time out of my day to let you know I appreciate all of your thoughts and words and just having you there.

Much love and on everyone's trips for having such good caring hearts.

 

[crissy1974]

Sorry to hear thta things are not going well between you and your BF. I wish you the best!

I am glad you are more than . I find that when I am mad at my DH, things can get so confusing because we are trying to figure out "how things got that way", so to speak.

Sometimes you just lose sight of each other, and if you are both willing to talk for an hour and a half (an have more long chats) it can become again. The hard times make the good times that much better. I do hope things work out, or that both of you feel okay about splitting up (if that is what it comes to).

Still thinking about you and wishing you the best!

 

[tankgirl427]

So we haven't talked any more about our issues, but we know we have to. Usually I'm asleep when he gets home and he's asleep when I go to work, and its really not a conversation to have over the phone.

Hopefully we can spend some time on it tomorrow before he goes to work. I would have liked to spend Sunday on it too, but his sister wants to go to Six Flags New England before she leaves for a month. I'm not sure if I want to go. I'm scared its going to make him more anti-Disney trip, or it may be a good way of showing him that all my work was worth it. Plus I could try out the new park bag I got. Actually I bought two to try and figure out which will work better. LOL.

Other than that I'm just at work like this minus the coffee and reading DIS instead of working. Tax free shopping this weekend. Must finish buying things and getting window decorations together.

Must start packing and wait for additional on sale summer clothes to show up, hopefully they fit because as of right now I have only one pair of shorts! I'm not wearing only one pair of shorts for six days! Must also make travel book together for my parents so they know where we are and for me to carry so I don't forget. I consistantly can't remember which park I'm suppose to be at which day when talking to people. Yikes!

I'll let you know what happens later!

 

[Joyciemc]

Well, I am glad to hear you guys are talking (or trying to) about your relationship. That's the only way to figure things out and make sure everyone is happy.

I haven't been to Six Flags New England in a while- it's got some fun rides but I always get so frustrated with the super long lines and people cutting. And I refuse to pay for their ride reservation thing. It's no Disney! If you decide to go, I hope you have fun!

I totally forgot about the tax free weekend! Thanks for the reminder- I'm working, but I'll have to find some time to shop a little. I just have to make sure I only buy things I need...
