Kim, I love your new avatar!! Somebody please link me to a good avatar site--I can't find one. All the ones I have looked at, when I pick an image, my Disney CP here says: image too big.

I love Flower, but I have had him for quite a while now. Time for a change here!!

Did someone post a link to the DDP restaurants a few pages back??? Is it the finalized list or are they still adding to it?

Jen, you better drink your Dr.P before you get there!! They don't sell them at Disney! And by the way, 6 weeks for me without one!!!

We took my Paw Paw (almost 80!!) to the DQ--his favorite place for chicken strips!!! Then we had ice cream--I had to get a hot fudge sundae!! How funny!!!

Whats the weather like for ya'll today? We have a small cool front coming in and it's raining to beat the band!! Dark and pouring rain!!! 80% til late Wed. night/early Thursday. You would know it, Mike has a house waiting to be bricked this week!! Ha!! Maybe next Monday!!

That's why I'm bringing the Dr. P with me...I'm not going without! I haven't had a real one in so long I'm going to see if I can go the whole 2 months til then and splurge while I'm at Disney LOL!!! Sounds like a good plan to me, although by then I'll probably not be able to handle real soda LOL!

I always take my Mt.Dew with me!! There's no Pepsi products at WDW.

We are definitely a Pepsi family here!! My uncle is a manager for Pepsi, I'm allowed to drink Dr. Pepper without being disowned because in some parts of the country Pepsi is there distributor LOL (but I'm still on the fence at times with him LOL ) Phillip LOVES Mt. Dew!

QOTD: Probably Pooh. I say probably, because there's so many rides I haven't been on! But it's so cute!

We're pretty sure we're going to do the QSDP. We've been looking at the menus, and what kinds of things we'd eat and it looks like a good deal for us.
Those who've stayed at CBR before - Question for you -
For drinks that you get with the meal, can you get a bottle of Nesquik or does it have to be soda/fountain drinks? DH saw those bottles and went nuts!! I assume you could get one with snack credit, but I was thinking of maybe getting one with breakfast. Plus on the QSDP, you get a mug, so the drink part of the meal wouldn't be any big bargain if you're eating at the resort.
Any thoughts? TIA!

DH and I just got back from our Veteran's Day outing - went to the other side of town and shopped a bit at a couple malls we never went to before, had a GREAT lunch at The Cheesecake Factory. We've never been there before. YUMMY! Stopped at Target on the way home and got a couple Christmas gifts for the girls. Almost done with them. We said they weren't going to get much, but it seems to all be very expensive stuff!!

It's sleeting, rain/snow, windy cold - a real crapy day here. Really a good day to stay in, but we had fun! Tonight the DDs have gymnastics, too bad we have to go out again! Oh well.

OH I got an email with Pin for a 5 day deal in April - June w/ free dining. Kids weren't free though.

Did anyone notice we're past 200 pages again already?? YIKES! 250 by Thanksgiving?

I'm not sure about that. . . I don't see why you couldn't get the Nesquik. . . You are allowed bottled water. . . It would be the same as anywhere else at WDW - so maybe someone else knows. . .

YAY for 6000 posts

I hope to break 1000 posts in 3 months...I think I can do it!! I only need 100 more....man that means I talk a lot..oh well that has already been established!!!

I wish I could meet up with you guys and do some of the cool rides!! That is the one thing that is a bummer...I don't mind eating alone...but riding the rides alone, I don't know..we'll just have to wait and see how it goes!!!

At least I'll have my midnight ride with glo LOL and any other Snowbirds who would like to stay up late on EMH MK night and meet us at Haunted Mansion on the 18th of January!!!

LOL...this was my 900th post LOL

Okay all you techies out there!! I can't change my font or color on here. I can do it on my personal email, but not here. What do I need to do? I even have the comic sans thing in quotes on my signature at the user cp. But it doesn't come on that way. Is something wrong with my computer or what. Also, any avatars I pick won't work. What's up with this It's driving me nuts!!! Well, I will check in with you good folks later this evening, I have to take my little darling to ballet!!!!!

Wow... many milestones while I have been busy...

Shelly...6000 posts.... amazing

Soleil.... I feel for you with your little Belle.... as they grow older the issues just change ... I think they are little so we can learn to grow with them..... you'll find the right way to handle it...

All of you with in law issues back a few pages... I can relate... but there isn't enough room here to write about the 28 years I have been dealing with mine.... (yup... I am old and have been with DH a long time)

Jen.... not to worry I am still going to do your shirts...

My stiches are all healing I guess becasue they itch like crazy.... and today I went for an eye exam... time to get bifocals.... $600 later... yikes... the new glasses are very nice though...DS picked them out...


got run and finish dinner then prepare a CMA for a 8 am appointment.... bye
