I NEED to plan a trip...

[sconnell]

I've been feeling a little low today and I think I've figured out why! I need a Disney trip to plan. We got home on Sept 30th, it's not even two weeks since then and I'm in withdrawal. I need to plan it. I think I like planning more than the actual trip.
What is it about planning and strategizing that is so addicting?

Tell me about it! We left WDW 9-2 & I've been strategizing ever since! I'm desparate to go down there the 1st week of Dec w/ my Mom & sister but there's NO way my husband would be able to work & get the kids to/from school, etc. And there's no way he could take time off from work so I'm just stuck planning a trip that'll never happen ... & I've been obsessed w/ it!

For my 40th birthday in May, my husband (great man that he is!) got me a trip to Disney, but he said that the gift really was the opportunity to plan a trip because he knows how much fun that is!

We settled on Nov. 29 (which is actually my DD's 7th birthday) and I've been having fun planning! I think that the planning allows me a little "escape" from my everyday life and transports me to the happiest place on earth with my family!

I know that as soon as I come back I'll be anxious to plan the next trip, but I don't know when that will be....

im feeling that disney withdrawal myself, i come here everyday to read all about others enjoying the world! I need to plan a trip soon or i'll explode! LOL
We wanted to g for christmas, but my son is going in for knee surgery at the end of this month and they said he'll be on cruthces for 12 weeks! yikes, DIsney is way too fun for him to have to hobble, he is 13 and doesnt want the attention of a wheelchair.. so i guess my plans are on hold for now, and we probably will not get there until next June! yikes!

so plan away! plan away plan away!!!!! we came home 8/22/06 im in need of WDW

I hear your pain, I start planning my next trip when I'm getting to the end of the current trip. I have planned many trips that I haven't even taken. It keeps me happy through the year. Then when I do have dates for the next trip, I have all this research already done. Go for it. Plan your dream disney vacation. Maybe someday you'll actually get to go on it.

We just got back 9/30 also and we are not going back until September 2011 but I already have it all planned out in my head. I thought when I came back I wouldn't be coming onto these boards for at least a couple of years until the trip got closer but I cannot stay off. I love planning our vacations and now I am lost....what do I do?

I am a hopeless planning addict!!

I just returned from Disney last week and I am chomping at the bit to go again! We have a trip booked for next fall, but it cannot get here fast enough!

All I can do is sit, wait, DIS, envy others who are going sooner and PLAN!

I know! We leave in 3 days and I am already depressed at the idea of coming home. I think the poster who said it is an escape had it right on. Planning gives us a chance to go into a dream world. I love it!

I am having severe post Disney depression.

We got home 9/1 & I was totally bummed..I figured it would get better but I think it's actually gotten worse!!!

So, I DIS, listen to my HCOE CD, & watch my WDW videos. My head realizes I can't live at Disney 365 days a year but my heart can't figure out why!

I was the exact same way. This trip was all I could talk about for years and then a couple of days before we left all the way up to the point I got on the plane I was so depressed. I know it was because I was already thinking it would be over so fast. Once I got on the plane I was better but that is a terrible feeling to be that depressed when you should be jumping up and down.

I am in the same boat......... just went in July, and had to book a trip for next Oct. My hubby said after the last trip we won't be back for a few years, but I talked him into it!!!!!! I already am asking hubby where he wants to eat!!!!

Argh. It's especially bad for me because my DH said on the way home that he wouldn't mind looking for a job at WDW or in Orlando.
Probably wouldn't happen, but I would SO love it. I doubt we could ever survive down there.

I'm an Obsessive Compulsive Disney Vacation Planner. We got home 10/1 and I'm also itching to plan another trip. My husband said maybe in 2008.

We told my niece that next time we go we would take her, maybe I can get her to ask for sooner. He can't say no to her!
