January 2009. . . Calling all Snowbirds ~ Part V

Oh yeah, I'm right there with you. I think Pamouselover was suggesting that it might be vision headaches if it happens a lot - have her eyes checked. And maybe ask at school if she's showing any signs of trouble seeing.

I thought of that about 2 minutes after I posted! Her eyes have been fine as far as I know. The way she was describing it sounds like the exact way I feel when I'm sinusy (not a word, I know). So, I bought her some nasal decongestant today and the pharmacist also said to give her some motrin. I'll see how she's feeling in a bit when I pick her up from school.

Perhaps you posted this already and I missed it, but how are you telling her where you're going?

I'm not trying to promote my PTR or anything, but I posted pictures of our little surprise box over there. I'm so excited! In one of my posts I went into detail of how the surprise is going down. 3 more days!!!

Ok quick question. How do you get your TR to be in your signature? I'd like to think that I'm computer literate sometimes...however with this...no idea!

I cannot WAIT to get out of the snow and cold for a week. I've been having Disney dreams all week and they just keep getting better!

You've been PMed!

You've been PMed!

Yay!! Thank you!

 

[Disney Mommy 3]

Oh my goodness Shawna! I'm so sorry to hear about your poor little kiddos. I'm sure everything will be better by Saturday for your (or should I say OUR) trip. I just had a good long cry this evening. I really needed it and feel much better now. Stuff has just been piling up inside and it felt good to let it go!

Girl, I feel like that right now!!

Thanks to all my sweet birdie friends!!! Ya'll are awesome! Do you know that? I just love you all to pieces!!! Well, I took a tiny nap with dd yesterday-I got about an hour, she slept for about 3 1/2!!! I was happy for her to get some solid rest!! My ds9 is still coughing,and nose is running, but we are on kid Mucinex and Tylenol, so hopefully he'll get better before too long. I did school today and we cleaned /organized ds13 room!! It really needed a cleaning out.So, tomorrow I will go over ds9 and dd room.Did those 2 right before Christmas, wanna make sure no dirty clothes are lurking under beds or anything before I do my final load of !!

Was going to church tonight, but ds9 needs to stay home and rest---this is good---I feel kinda like I need some rest myself!! I will probably go over ressies while he watches a movie!!! Meghan~ Thanks for that weather report! Looks like this will be us in a few days!!!!! I am thinking the weepy feeling is just all this planning coming to a head!! I always get this way before a big event! I usually cry right before the kids birthday parties too. I guess because they are so bittersweet!!! Anyway, thanks for all the well wishes sent our way-dd is definitely better,and my list is slowly being whittled away!!!!! I will check in with all of you tomorrow!!!! Blessings to all of you!! Catch you in the a.m.!!!

 

[Lil'Mermaid75]

Jen gets back today----I wonder when??

 

[distherapy]

We leave in 14 hours. I thought I would share that DH is now excited. AND he just called saying that we should go to AK for a full day (we have a half day planned) and we should see "Fantasia" (Fantasmic). I don't think I should put on this "family" site my reply....
lol

 

[Momto2PrncChrmgs]

Evening all!! Two more days until we leave and three until we arrive!! Of course I woke up with major sinus gunk going on...my throat is killing me and it hurts to talk, but I've got that sexy raspy voice thing going on!

Sheree-I did the same Mousekeeping envelopes. Don't have the patience to print out envelopes and we got a Disney Movie Club thing with the stickers, so that was that.

Hope everyone's having a good night. Gotta go do some to finish up! (although I"m sure I'll be doing some Friday morning before we leave).

Yup - those are the stickers that came in the mail yesterday and I used them too!
I'm doing a lot of laundry tonight too! I'm feeling a little less stressed today. I've decided not to worry too much. We'll get packed and go and that's all that's important. I've got a list (well, a bunch of lists!) and if the house isn't perfect, well that's okay! My neighbor has a cleaning business and has agreed to start on my house while we're gone! So I'll just tidy up and make it not gross and leave the rest to her!

 

[pamouselover]

Not at an eye doctor, just at the pediatricians office. Why?

Yes, that is what I was wondering!

Morning! I like sleeping in. Of couse it helps that I didn't get to bed until after 2 (where did my little whistling smiling dude go?!?!?!). We're having a heat wave here today...high of 26!! The windchill is still supposed to be low...but man I want summer!
Ok, off to find my coffee!



Perhaps you posted this already and I missed it, but how are you telling her where you're going?

We were 18 today! I hear Flordia has a frost warning.

I know how to do this, but when I go to do everytime I am like
why is this not working!

Have a magical trip!

I got those stickers too! I like the new ones they added. I am using the birthday ones for DS birthday page.

 

[corkery719]

Been deep into work to help time go by, but have been reading every chance I get. THIS Saturday, finally, we will be there!!!!

 

[Dancegrl624]

We got the Disney Movie Club info in the mail yesterday too!! My DD loves those stickers! I like the new ones too! My DD wants to make a card for my mom and little sis for when they go to Disneyland in April and use the "Have a Blast" sticker. Isn't she so sweet?

 

[Disney Mommy 3]

Hello Everyone!!!! Well, got some last minute stuff at Wally world last night, kept ds9 home from church to recoup, Laundry is caught up---for now. I will do more tomorrow-school work is nearly done. Dh is now iffy on the scavy hunt, but they have been sooooo looking forward to it, I am just gonna have to do it myself. He does NOT have time to work on clues today!! Gotta finish those 2 houses so we can get some extra spending $$$!! Ha!!!! No, really, we don't like to go outta town with a house finished and papers unsigned--just feels undone. Anyway, gotta get those bathrooms cleaned up today--fridge is about empty. Weather report is looking good: So YIPPEE!!!! We are probably telling them today--I was going to do the Scavy early tomorrow, but dh said the suspense is killing him- he can't hold the secret anymore!!! Ha! I am contemplating whether or not to hold off till tomorrow and just make him suffer!! I have to see how this day goes. One way or the other I have lots to do, so I will check in with y'all tonight. Hope you all have a blessed day!!!

 

[Disney Mommy 3]

WOW!! Look at that ticker!! She is almost falling off !! Ha!!! WOO-HOO!! I can't believe it!!!!

 

[coffeehousemom]

Wow I went to check in this am & we were way down in the list yikes!! I think that's a first LOL.


All I did for mousekeeping was put on shiny Disney stickers & write Mousekeeping. But when we got there I would take a different Godzilla toy that DS had brought & have them hold the envelopes on top of the TV. I think our mousekeeper liked that. Every day our stuffed animals were in different poses around the room. One day we had the Yeti peeking out behind a mound of pillows looking like he was going to attack the Webkinz monkey & gecko. If I can ever get Chuck to download pics I will post them.

 

[MAGGIED]

WOW!! Look at that ticker!! She is almost falling off !! Ha!!! WOO-HOO!! I can't believe it!!!!

TWO DAYS FOR US ALSO........ everyone is getting very excited here.... I am going to start packing tonight..... DH says he will pack Saturday before heading to the airport that he needs to go a few things..... MEN.... DS says he needs some new shorts..... WHERE were they last week when I said "does anyone need anything new for Disney".....

 

[Mndisneygirl]

Morning Snowbirds!!
Got lots of done last night - have to finish packing tonight, go to the Science Fair, have the girls pick out their stuff they want to bring in their carry on bags.
Made my appointment for my mani/pedi for tomorrow a.m. So once the kiddos go to school, I get pampered. Then I have to pack up the van (hope I don't mess up my nails!)

 

[jenjolt]

Jen is back and had to take care of a sick Prince Phillip so I'm just getting on now...well I also had to start my trip report LOL!!!

Anyways I had the most magical trip ever!! Taking a solo trip for a Disney fanatic is the ultimate experience and I would recommend it for anyone! I had such a great time, besides the fact it was freezing...and NO I did not swim and I will let you know that even our beloved Kim (NorthernDisneyGirl) had to buy a sweatshirt, because she was chilly...LOL (I win LOL)

 

[Mndisneygirl]

WELCOME BACK JEN!! We missed you! I am heading over to read your TR! Can't wait to hear all about it. Sorry you were cold - looks to be warm next week! (just for me I'm sure!) Hope your prince is okay!
