I'm following along, but not chiming in much today:
I think calling the doc was a good idea! Like you said, if for nothing else, it's good to have it documented.

I hope Chloe's doing OK this morning! :hug:

Hi to everyone else!
 

:blush: eeemmmm....maltesers, Thorntons fudge, Cadbury's Double Decker, peanut M&M's, Minstrels and a few Thorntons truffles (champagne and rum ones) with coffee at ma wee mammy's on Sunday:ssst: ....well it would be rude not to KWIM:rolleyes1
Ooooh yum, I haven't had a double decker in ages, I used to prefer them years ago though!

We met on Mouseplanet actually but mostly post here. MP is like 1/10 of the size. Fun board though, more hometown feeling but the park info here rocks! :thumbsup2 Jenna actually told me about the DIS when I was researching my first WDW trip.
Cool, it's so great you've become friends!

Loving hearing about Gab, does she enjoy all the political stuff I know my girls would be bored stiff :rotfl2:

And then we're heading to Abq. tomorrow morning for a few days. Jon is seeing his neurologist and pulmonologist. He is having some motor issues all of a sudden (very clumsy, falling, dizzy, losing balance), and some asthma issues. SOOOO...I"ll be in the motha's town for a few days. BUT...I'm not staying with her. :rolleyes1
Good luck Jen, for the Dr and seeing your Mum :rotfl:

Your post reminded me that Chloe had another seizure last night. :sad1: It was mild and only the paralysis happened but it woke her up. :confused3 She could form speech this time. I don't know that I should call her Neuro though. He said only to call if they last longer or seem more intense. I guess I don't need to call but it seems so weird not to. :upsidedow
Oh no, definitely follow Jen's advise. What did the Dr say???
 
Nahhhhh. Anyone one the yenta train is in the same boat (caboose???)



:rotfl2: :thumbsup2 That's some funny stuff. Too bad the Fairy doesn't patrol the trippie threads. :wizard:

:wave: Hola Bevily. She's fine and I actually forgot until I read Jen's post about Jon. :goodvibes It was in the middle of the night and I was half asleep.

How's your day? How's :yoda:

I am trying to motivate myself to begin weeding but the comp keeps calling my name. I should start while it's fairly cool out though.
 
Cool, it's so great you've become friends!


Yeah, she's the best. Truly one of the nicest people I have ever met. Gab says there is no one nicer than Jenna. I think Nate may disagree. ;) :rotfl:

:thanks: I like sharing the details. There is no way to not get involved with politics in this house!

I just left a message. My guess is he'll call back but he said to expect them and not to be alarmed. :goodvibes


Did Jess post an update? :hyper:
 
I read that as.............I am going to NEED weed today!:lmao:



Are you clairvoyant? :rotfl2: :rotfl2: Cuz you read my mind. ;)




DC update: So Gab called last night sobbing, I mean sobbing, but not because she missed us but because her camera died and guess what? Grandpa forgot to bring her charger. :headache: It was grandpa's choice to lend her a camera that we had given him a few years back.

DH told her to just buy disposables which makes ZERO sense to me. She took 35 pictures just yesterday and that's with her camera dying half way through the day. Side note: our family has horrible luck with electronics.

So she called me, I called DH, and asked him to run to Walmart/Target/Walgreen/CVS/wherever to grab her a cheap digital. Disposables won't work because they have no night/day differential and they can't zoom. This makes total sense to me as this is a once in a lifetime trip. Also disposables are a total ripoff and that's before you have to pay to get the film developed. Ya still with me? :flower3:

DH then proceeds to tell me that he's just going to give her ours. He's going to hand our new $250+ camera to an 11 year old? :faint: IMHO that's just setting her up for failure. Right? Right!

Here's where he goes off on me and appears totally irrational. :confused3 Tells me he's not going to inconvenience his aunt by asking her to drive all over town. Now remember her home is less than 10 miles from Gab's hotel. And in Arlington/the 3 corners, there has to be a bazillion stores in between. So I say, borrow her car or have your dad borrow it but someone get her a camera, I mean isn't that why he's there, in case stuff goes wrong? :upsidedow

I won't post the rest of the conversation but let's just say, it got ugly and I went to bed feeling very badly. :sad1: Doesn't that look like Vera Bradley? :laughing: Guess I've been reading the Budget Board in my sleep. ;)

Opinions, thought? I got Jenna's over the phone last night because I called her right after and the poor thing had to hear me vent something fierce. :mad:

I love the man but truly do not get what the big deal was about bringing her a camera?


On a more positive note:



240 days until WDW!!!!! :wizard: :cloud9: :woohoo: :thumbsup2 pixiedust: :smokin: :hyper2: puckerup:
 
Jenny, I'm sorry you had such a rough night. I hope that everything gets worked out, and that things are going better today! :hug:

:hug: Thanks sweetie. It's been a bittersweet day. :upsidedow I did speak with DH but not about last night. He told me that his dad is allowing Gab to use his camera and I didn't ask anything about it. We surface chatted for a few and that was it. Ain't marriage grand sometimes? ;) I have been waiting for Jen to chime in with her there are reasons I am not married. :lmao:


I miss Gab and it's very frustrating not to be able to chat with her for more than a minute at a time. :sad1: I feel very helpless. DH is close but not the pillar of info I was hoping for. I am wishing I made the trek to DC too.


:thumbsup2 On the upside of today, Jenna said that her and Nate are going to try and stay for our entire trip and not leave Saturday night!!! This makes me very happy. :teeth: But of course, the planning is on hold until she is allowed to make her DVC reservation in less than 4 weeks. :hyper: I am far too spazzy for this. I found a super nice couple to rent points from too and now have had to put them on hold. :guilty: :flower3: I feel so bakey flakey. Maybe I have been partaking in the weed. :laughing: :angel:

How's your day? Anymore planning fun? I have to go back and review your list of ADRs. :surfweb:

We might not be doing the DDP now that they may be staying because 11 days on the DDP too much food as we found out during our last trip. We ended up with so many extra credits which was semi-okay because they were "free" but now that's we'd be paying, having extra doesn't sound sound like a smart investment. That means we really need to decide what TS we have to have and maybe do those for lunch. I do like the idea of having the kids able to share again. I hate to waste food and found us so wasteful last trip. :blush:
 
Thank goodness Gab got her camera, couldn't anyone have just bought another charger :confused: Talking of cameras when are we going to see the photos in your last TR???? :rotfl2:

Jen is in Alburque (sp?) for Jon's hospital appointment so you'll have to wait for her comments :lmao:

:worship: Hello and thank you!!!! DH's point, I am guessing was that he didn't want to ask to take their car but gimme a break, like they would have cared. I have never cared when a guest needs our car. Heck, I usually offer because no one likes to feel tied down.

:goodvibes That's right. I hope the docs find out what's wrong and give her some good news.

:hug: I was more than happy to hear you vent. I may not have the answers, but I am a good listener!:hug:

:hug: Ain't marriage grand sometimes? ;) I have been waiting for Jen to chime in with her there are reasons I am not married. :lmao:
I swear they can be impossible sometimes.:mad: Nate has been extremely moody all night tonight. I asked him if he was trying to pick a fight, because it was working. My fur was ruffled! He backed down which was lucky for him!:rotfl:

You are the best listener. I always feel like I am yammering about something. :blush: :hug:

::yes:: Maybe he's PMSing. He's in a hormonal way. :rotfl2:




The waiting is going to kill us!!!!!;) :rotfl:



:hyper: We need to decide which ADRs are a must. I love your big meal lunch idea. Breakfast we'll do in the room. Even with a 2 bedroom, they'll be plenty of room to cook if we don't score the GV. :thumbsup2 It'll be like camping but with amenities. ;)






Well, have you decided? :yay:



DC update: Gab just called and I got to speak with her for a whopping 5 minutes vs the one minute norm. :sad1: She's having a blast. Michael gave her $40 more last night when he dropped off the camera. :goodvibes Good on him! She told me all of the souvenirs she's bought. She bought me 2 Obama items. :thumbsup2 She got Joshua a lamp thing from the space museum. She got Chloe a Capitol snow globe, and she got grandpa an I Heart Washington DC and Grandpa mug. :laughing: Who knew they sold such a thing?

She sounded very tired and said she was anxious to get a shower. She said there is one girl who dresses cuter than she does. :rolleyes: That's my Gab. :rotfl: Still haven't heard much about her roomies but they are always there when she calls because I can hear them on their phones in the background.


They went to Jamestown today which was a 3 hour drive. :faint: Bleh. She said she fell asleep. They went out to dinner again. I was under the impression they ate all of their dinners at the hotel but again, she said everything takes longer than they plan. She also bought some "patriotic" candies for everyone. She's :snooty: but generous.

Yammer away...... I don't mind at all!


::yes:: Maybe he's PMSing. He's in a hormonal way. :rotfl2:

I swear he must be!:mad: Even I'm not that moody when I am PMSing. Well, then again, I'm probably worse!:lmao:

Not yet! My super-grumpy DH has just spoiled my mood for the evening. I don't even want to discuss anything with him!;)


She said there is one girl who dresses cuter than she does. :rolleyes: That's my Gab. :rotfl:
I can totally hear her saying this!!!:laughing: All those gifts sound great!!:thumbsup2 And way-to-go Michael giving her more $$$$!
 
Okay Jenny, I'm here. I read the last 8-10 pages or so, but honestly just skimmed the rest. If you feel like it, I'd love some pictures...really pictures from anyone. The one of the group WAAAAAAAAYYYYYY back has apparently been removed from Photobucket.

That sounds like an AWESOME trip Gab is on. My niece just turned 10 and I can't imagine her being grown-up enough to be in DC by herself. Do they grow up that much between 10 and 11? You must have quite a young lady on your hands. :thumbsup2

I love that you've kept this going for so long. You've inspired me to figure out how many days we have left too...and post it! ;)

I'll check back tomorrow as you're sure to have a post...or a page...or two. :)

Edited to add that I guess I don't have to "figure out" anything...that nice little ticker in my signature does it for me. :headache:
 
Yammer away...... I don't mind at all!



:hug: That's fortunate for both of us. :goodvibes







I swear he must be!:mad: Even I'm not that moody when I am PMSing. Well, then again, I'm probably worse!:lmao:


:rotfl2: I highly doubt that. I have yet to see you flip like I do. :upsidedow

Oh, you were going to let him have a say? :laughing:

She is a little girl most of the time but when challenged, she can rise to the occasion. That's why I had DH go too to stay nearby just in case. :hyper:

There were many days I posted to myself but heck, if you can't post tp yourself, who can ya post to? :p The thread seems to have more activity lately. I have a friend who lurks but swears he post until it get closer. :laughing:
 
Well, :woohoo: for Gad and having fun!

And :hug: for you and your hubby situation.

Again...I mingle single for a reason!!! :rotfl:

LY/MI!!!
