A comment about the current conversation.... I don't believe anybody means to be exclusive in the conversational trend. We find common ground and want to explore it! I personally find it very exciting when I "meet" somebody who has similar life experiences as me! Whether it be motherhood, marriage, faith, work or whatever. Inside each of us we have a part that is made to desire connection with others, so when we see connection, it is only natural to want to expand on it! However, I will apologize for myself if anything I have said has caused another to feel left out or excluded! For myself, I will try to keep my part of the conversation more relevant to the Topic at Hand - DISNEY!
Well, as the odd duck, I'm not "hurt" by everyone's conversation, just pointing out that, yeah, I'm different. BUT!!! even still, amongst the posters with children, the posters who go to church - everyone does things differently. I like hearing everyone's POV on life!
What is your favourite way to unwind in the evening after a busy day at the Parks?
Fall into bed and collapse! Is there anything else to do?
Okay, so we've been known to go to DTD. When we're off property, things are different - we'll stay at the park till closing and then go for a late dinner... then fall into bed and collapse.
I really owe my kind, considerate, wonderful DH a more laid back vacation... this year, it might be it, especially after his marathon! Plus, it'll be his 3rd (my 7th) trip to Disney, so we can certainly take it easy, pick and choose, and otherwise enjoy life!
You took the words out of my mouth. I never mean to exclude anyone or make anyone feel uncomfortable. I'm not one to judge anyone and I don't think anyone else on here is either. I feel very comfortable talking to all of you wonderful ladies, so I'm sorry if I've excluded anyone. I'm not like that at all. I'm not trying to push anything on anyone, I'm just talking about what's on my mind. Once you do make connections with people, it's very easy to get carried away and talk about all the things you have in common. I'll keep it to PM's from now on.
Keep chatting! Keeps the thread interesting! Like I said, despite people's similarities, we're all different and it's fun to learn about everyone. Just because I picked a weird path doesn't mean I think everyone ought to be like me.... to the contrary! Whose kids would I get to spoil, otherwise?! Whose babies would I get to knit clothing/accessories for? How can we learn to understand and be tolerant!
Thanks for everyone's recommendations on cameras so far. I'll collect them all and see what kind of bargains come out for the holiday season. Trust me, any point and shoot will be easier to take with me than my Nikon D40. Of course, it IS coming with me to Disney (I get decent pictures of my hubby running with it!) and it'll probably come with us to AK. But the p&s would be great for the rest of the fun, candid moments that occur in the parks!
Happy Tuesday - today's my last training of this session! Woohoo! (I miss the last one since I'll be on vacation) It's been a long boring process
and I'm glad to see it winding down. I just hope they have brownies for us today. Fresh veggies, hummus, and pitas are nice, but where's my chocolate, dang nabbit! (On the plus side, I'll be so bored I'll be able to go home and nap!
)
Please don't be afraid to just jump right in!

) day!
Good night All!

I'd love to be able to sit on a balcony with a nice glass of wine or hot chocolate (depending on the weather).
At least I'll be home to have lunch and take DS to preschool before I have to get back! 
Other than seeing them at Disney last year, I don't think he's ever watched the show.
