Thanks for the PM!

I don't think I want names. Oh yes I do. No maybe I don't. I DON'T KNOW!!!!!!

That's how I feel. I almost e-mailed her and asked for them 3 times - then I deleted the e-mail at the last minute

I love that people are getting new tickers up!!

Sorry I've been MIA. Been a rough couple of weeks around here. My Grandmother passed away last Tuesday. Hoping to get back to normal here in the near future. She was a huge part of my life and I will miss her terribly.

I'm so sorry for your loss. "God gave us memory so that we may have roses in December." I hope your memories of her will bring you comfort.

OK, I know I'm planning WAY too early, but I"m trying to keep from screaming at my kids who won't settle down to go to sleep, so I'm looking at resort info.

We stayed at CBR this time and liked it, but (insert whine here) I disliked being SO far away from the food court. Not sure if we'll go back, except kids loved the pool. I guess we could pay for preferred, but I don't know if I can justify the extra cost, as I could when we stayed at Pop (only preferred there baby)! Have been looking at pix of POFQ and CSR. I think CSR is just as big as CBR??? I like the looks of it better than FQ, but I've heard FQ is much more compact (I just don't really like the colors/themes). Any help????

We stayed at CSR in Casitas 4. It took us 5 minutes to the main building, and about 6 minutes or so to the Dig Site (the main pool). It didn't bother us at all. Next time, I'm going to try the Cabanas, though!

We were at the ME counter on a Sat(the 24th) and it was UNBELIEVABLE!!! I almost wanted to cry! The only really slow day we saw was the Sunday of the SuperBowl. Do any of you have an idea of what weekend will be marathon or MLK next Jan.? I looked for Thanksgiving and it's on the 26th--kinda late in the month again, which messes up our plan to go the end of Nov/Dec. We did like Jan, but really thought crowds would have been nil.

MLK Day 2010 is on January 18.

Have a great day, everyone! (And no, I don't watch "The Bachelor." But "Top Chef", anyone? )

Well now I know how many days until vacation by looking at your ticker!!

Hahaha!!! This trip is just in my head. My DH doesn't want me bringing up WDW anymore, so I'm pretty bummed. I guess I'll have to wait to bring it up again in a few months. I've only ever stayed at ASMusic and the Contemporary. After reading Emma's TR (AGPrincess) I just HAVE to stay at the Beach Club!!! I'd love to be able to walk to Epcot. So, that's my new dream resort!

I know, the BC does look awesome!! I still think I want to try the Poly first though.

Good luck convincing your DH!

I got the e-mail with the names but i haven't opened it I don't know if I should

Okay, I never watch, but I have a question. How much longer until the finale when you would find out anyway?

 

[drakes]

I must just say that the pics of all those clown thingies at POFQ scare the crap out of me!

OMG ! me too! I have kept quiet! But quiet no more!!!!

Not this Monday but next Monday - March 2

I want the names! Even DH is picking a "winner"!

 

[MAGGIED]

Goodbye snowbirds.

 

[Dancegrl624]

Goodbye snowbirds.

Where are you going?

 

[Monny2AE]

You Bachelor fanatics crack me up! I don't watch the show but now I'm curious about what I'm missing! I'm following Top Chef right now...not as dramatic and it makes me hungry all the time. Perhaps I should switch to the Bachelor.

Goodbye snowbirds.

Wendy where ya headed? You're not leaving us are you!!!!!!

 

[sarbah77]

Goodbye snowbirds.

Where are you going?

Yeah! What she said!!

We have no trips planned, at the moment. Hoping to go back with my friend this fall, but we'll see. She's making a real effort to pay off her debt and I am NOT going to push her into a trip/more debt, you know?

It looks like we'll be doing a 2+ week trip to Europe next year, so that'll be the bulk of our vacation and money. Luckily my TA for Disney is going to be my TA for that - huzzah!

I'm with Soliel on the detoxing thing - can't go for awhile, don't want to obsess over it too much.

Next time DH and I do go, however, we are ABSOLUTELY staying at an Epcot resort. I really like the Contemporary but there were so many perks to the Epcot ones that, well, we agreed that was a better fit.

Mostly I think we were sick of buses by the end of our trip
