OMG...I hope that you can get out to her quickly and that it isn't as bad as you think. I will keep you guys in my thoughts and prayers. With my DD going of to college next year, this is the sort of thing that has me grateful that she is looking at places no more and an hour and a half away! Good luck and drive safely.
Prayers for her safety (and yours as you drive to her), for nothing major to be broken, and for a fast and healthy recovery!![]()
Wow!! I'm glad to hear that she seems to okay!! I'll keep her in my prayers today be safe getting to her.
Aw, MAGGIED! Praying that your dd is okay! Keep us posted!
Maggied- I'm praying for you, too!![]()
MAGGIED--hugs for your daughter, and you too!Hopefully it's nothing too serious!
I hope your DD is okay!
I still need my mom, too, despite the 13 hours between us and call her often to whine! (I will say that I haven't kept her in the loop on my recent health woes because she's been really upset by everything to the point where I have to console her and I need someone to console ME! And it's not even so bad that I think she should be upset!)
Maggied - I hope everything end up ok with your daughter. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
MaggieD - hope DD is okay. Nice that she can still be close to you.
You're taunting us!!!
MaggieD - hugs and prayers for your DD! I broke my wrist in college playing football for a sorority tournament. I remember I didn't cry until they told me I needed a cast and I didn't like any of the colors...![]()
Hope She is all right!Please get us an update as soon as you can! We are thinking of and praying for you and your daughter!

Hey Everyone!!!!
Maggied, I hope everything turns out of for your DD![]()
Maggie, I hope she's OK! That's the only thing I hate about my DD's school - it's 6 hours away! She's had strep and other illnesses, and I haven't been able to be there.
It's tough.
Here's hoping that your d's injury is easily healed!
I just saw this-but wanted to tell you I am praying for your dd--let us know how she is ----- and how YOU are!!!
Thanks to everyone.... we just came back from the orthopedic surgeon and it looks like she has severe muscle strains and tears.... not sure of the correct wording... she will be on crutches for a week and then back to see him...
thanks for all your thoughtful words and prayers.... I showed them to Maggie and she was very touched...![]()
Oh I forgot...
QOTD: I'm just looking forward to having a week and a half alone with my new DH. We rarely get to spend time together, because we've both been so busy lately. It will be so nice to have 10 days of just him and me. This might be the only chance that we ever get to do that... at least for this long... He has to take classes all summer, then when he graduates in December he'll be shipped off to training somewhere, and it'll probably be a while before we get another vacation, which we'll probably have to spend with family.

Please keep us informed!! Hopefully everything will be resolved and she will have quick healing!
Good evening My lovely Snowbird friends!![]()
I come to you this evening with a bit of a tragedy that has befallen our family.It seems as though our cat has disappeared
She is an 11yr old black short hair cat and has been an indoor cat her entire life! As of late she hasn't been herself. Not eating, getting sick frequently and being snarly with the kids. I could tell she wasn't well. We talked about it and decided that if she wasn't improving by the end of this weekend that we would take her see a vet. Well, we were getting ready to head out for a bit earlier this evening and I realized that I hadn't seen the cat for most of the day. We called her and called her but she didn't come. We searched the house top to bottom and looked in all the noks and crannys she is so fond of hiding in. So we decided to look outside. Now you have to know that as an indoor cat, she does not like to be outside, AT ALL! She never asks to go out nor has she ever tried to get outside, EVER! Lately though, she has been trying to get out whenever somebody opens the door! Strange for her! Anyway, DH and DD7 decided to go around for a bit and look for her before it got too dark. Well, they did not have any luck. I searched the house again and again calling her and shaking her food jar (which usually brings her running) to no avail. I think she is gone
The kids are soooo sad
and I know DH is too. I am too, but if she is infact gone, I almost feel releieved in a way. True we didn't get to say goodbye, but now we don't have to worry about what to do with her when we are gone away in January. She gets really lonely when we go away and she is just too old and opinionated to spend time in a kennel. My parents/sister usually come to check and feed her when we are away for a weekend but almost 2 weeks is too long for that.
Thanks for putting up with this long post but I needed to write it out to help feel better and I knew that some, if not all of you would be sympathetic to my ramblings! For those of you who do so , would you please pray for my dear sweet little girls who are going to miss their kitty terribly? Thanks so much!
I am going to say goodnight now as I need to have my shower and get into my cozy bed! I have been having waaayyy too many late nights lately!Catch y'all in the morning!

Good Morning Snowbirds!
I'm supposed to be working (gasp!), but I hurt my back this morning while I was dropping DDs off at school. Exactly how I don't know.I must have just turned funny and pulled something out of whack between my shoulder blades. So I took lots of ibuprofen and am doing ice on and off. But rats! I have too much stuff to do to be hurting, you know? I have to get 9 carved pumpkins back to school by 3:00 for DDs' "Harvest Blessings" fall festival this evening. Don't quite know how I'm going to manage that, yet.

So this Cooke's of Dublin is a CS version of Raglan Road? I didn't know it even existed. How is that possible? Is it right near RR?

Looks like some people are getting 40% off codes for dates in 2009 already. . . I've seen a couple of threads like this - http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1991171.
Those must be room only offers. No one has mentioned a package offer yet. . . Still waiting . . .![]()
Ok, so I see there isn't a QOTD, so let's try this...
What is the ONE thing you are most excited about for your up coming trip?
Unfortunately, you can't use the birthday gift card for food. If only!If it was my birthday, I would probably put it towards dinner with everybody, course my birthday is in value season, so ride lines aren't as big of an issue...

It makes me sad too that the kids are getting older. I wonder how much longer they will have the joy and excitement of going to Disney. Hopefully for many years to come.I know right now it is killing them with the thought that we aren't going back to Disney until 2010 (or so they think!). It is killing me not telling them. I will be so relieved to tell them on Christmas. Now if I can just make it through the next 2 months!!!

Ours is always the Saturday before Halloween, and it just happens that with Halloween being on a Friday, trick or treat will be 6 days before Halloween.
Our downtown area (very small town) will have a parade and a merchants trick or treat on Tuesday night and our local grocery store has trick or treat on Halloween night. So many opportunities for trick or treating!
Northern Disney Girl - I will keep your girls in my prayers. We recently lost our 15-year old lab. Our son was devastated.
Sorry about your missing cute...I would be devestated if one our animals disappearred. We have 2 dogs, 2 cats, a fish and a turtle.
I'm so sorry to hear about this! We have two cats and they are definately a part of the family. I will pray for your little girls. I know my DD would be absolutely devasted if anything happened to either one of our kitties.
I am very sorry about your cat. I will be praying for your DD's. That's got to be very hard on them. Our dog is 12 so the kids have never known life without him, it's going to be so hard on the boys when he is no longer with us.
Awww, sorry to hear about your cat.![]()
I believe that cats know when their time is up and it's quite possible she did, too. Growing up, we knew when our cats went into hiding, well... (and, oddly, the last time that happened, my mom called the vet to make The Appointment and the cat immediately came out of hiding and sat by her carrier. That was heart breaking. That was also the day I decided I'd marry my DH since he comforted me all night!) I hope you and your kids will do okay if your cat doesn't come home.
Northern Disney Girl~ I have heard that animals will wander off like that and find a place to....go to rest. I am soooo sorry for your girls. I will pray for them. But, at least they didn't have to know about putting her to sleep or anything like that.
I totally agree with this...animals have such a keen sense of themselves and the environment around them. I have had to deal with this many times and I truly believe that some animals just know when their time as come.
Either way I know this is a hard situation to deal with Kim...my love and thoughts are with you and your girls through all of this. It is never easy to lose a pet, especially when they are like your family.![]()
