I'm doing my final packing today. We are heading down to my sister's house tonight. She's an hour and a half closer to the airport. Our flight leaves Manchester at 6:40am.
I can't believe it's almost here!!!
We leave tomorrow!!!

Your DD is right. You don't want to be in pain when you are down there.
(j/k)
Wow that is alot of dining. We have 13 ressies spread out among 14 days
Thanks
letting me be a part of your group. Thanks and looks like our only opportunity to meet you guys will be July 10th at 2:00 PM at the Dole stand. I will be wearing (Color Blind) a gray shirt with a sailfish on the back and a black backpack. Facial features - very short hair (1 10th of an inch) and glasses.
Have a great trip. Doesn't matter when I start packing I always forget something.
2 weeks for us until we will be at WDW. Today is my MIL 84th Birthday so we are having everyone over for cake. After the cake and she goes home we are having a final planning meeting. Probably to late to change much but now that Fantasmic is every night while we are there we may replan a little. Plus looks like DGD Shelby might be cast free so we may plan in some water park time.
T shirt for grangathering is done. Disigner threads are great. This was desgned by RustManFan (Marion) He did a great job I thought.
I don't eat as much in the summer, at least for heavy sit down meals. When it gets hot out, I tend to exist on ice cream and other frozen treats. Which isn't the least bit healthy, but it's how I get by. I tried really hard to talk my family in to the QSDP but the price difference was so small that I was summarily ignored. Then I got a PIN for free QSDP, which we upgraded to regular dining making the point of this story "we're only paying $7/person/night for the dining," so I feel less bad if I exist on ice cream and frozen cokes for the week.
Prior to that, spending all that money for food I don't necessarily want was really frustrating. Now, well, let's face it - I'll eat $7/day, even if it is in ice cream!
For work? Yeah, they expect me to work my usual hours of 8-4. Don't they know that getting up early enough to be here on time is getting in the way of my trip anxiety fitful sleeping patterns? (I'm glad it's almost weekend and I can sleep it away, if I have to, before we go!)
We got lucky with the free dining and upgraded as well. I wish I ate less in the heat! When we are on vacation we tend to indulge a lot, but I think that's because we are always "trying" to eat healthy/low cal at home. Who knows, we've never been there in the heat, so maybe I won't eat as much! I didn't think of it like that - $7 per day. Awesome! See you at the Dessert Party, if I'm not too preoccupied with my boys!
Work - I've got to get through today and tomorrow yet, and lately, I tend to be on the Dis a bit much. Doesn't look like that will happen much today, how dare these people interrupt my Dis time!
This morning my DS7 was telling me all the reasons why flying is better - he likes going through security (really?), seeing new things, seeing all of the houses get smaller as we take off, it's faster... I told him to just think of this as a bonus trip. We were just there in January, and we will fly again this winter. In the summer, we drive to Myrtle Beach, so it's a bonus that he gets to go to Disney again. Kids!
DS4 has had his little suitcase packed for weeks now, full of miscellaneous toys and other stuff! I wish packing were that easy!

RHMH here - OK thanks, I will post a daily recap. Appreciate all of you Disney Maniac's
I am!
Today I'm doing my single digit dance!!!!
(I mean, "lunch? or fried dough? FRIED DOUGH YAY!")We wavered back and forth on the ddp vs. dxddp for this trip for the same reason. In the end, we decided on dx because we wanted the luau and CRT, etc. The character meals are a must for anyone who doesn't want to wait in line to see the characters elsewhere. If we end up not eating much for the week, so be it

I cannot find the list, I kind of wanted to post the meet at MK one last time, anyone seen it lately?
I was actually pleasantly surprised....DH really got into the packing mode last night! Of course he didn't want to listen to me tell him to pack extra shirts, socks, etc. He called me "Mom"But...he ended up giving me extra shirts, socks, etc to pack
I do NOT miss going to a military hospital! I was active duty AF for about 5 years, I had horrible, shooting back pain that went up my back and down my entire leg on one side, I cried and cried, couldn't walk, sit, stand, etc. I went to sick call, and BEGGED to be seen, the doc took one look at my records, saw I have scoliosis, and diagnosed complications from scoliosis. I had that go on for MONTHS off and on, they kept giving me Motrin, sending me to Physical Therapy, nothing worked....until I was pregnant with my DS, had the same thing happen, my OB did further testing, and turns out I had kidney stones!
Hope your DD feels better...poor thingthere's nothing worse than your child being sick!
We went through about 200 books last night to find 10 to put in her backpack. Glad that's over. And that's just the books. Sheesh! Luckily we're driving....so we've got a little more room to play with. Had the worst scare with her DVD player last night in the car(that Santa brought her JUST for this trip), the screen was blank, but the sound was on. She freaked out. I told her to just turn it off, maybe it needed to charge....guess what?
I can't believe it's almost here!!!
We leave tomorrow!!!
that woman! This guy though got under my skin. Like he was patting me on the head or something. The civi doc I took her to the following day though, he actually examined Gillian and gave her drops to keep bacteria out of her eyes. We are still doing cleanings with salt water and her eyes aren't oozing like they were and the glue on her eyes in the morning is reducing
Ok.....breathe.....breathe! I don't do well when people are rude, and push and cut in line! Breathe.....Breathe..... Has anyone else heard anything?
Ok, I am sooo trying not to panic right now! I was just reading about ALL the brazilian tour groups at Disney right now, and the complete chaos they are causing!
DD's have a GREAT ped in Drum I seriously
Have a safe trip tomorrow! Drive safe and watch out for any crazies on the interstate!
Today we ended up at the Natural History Museum....arrived at the Smithsonian station and the Folklife festivel was still going full swing. It was packed and HOT! 102 in my car when we got back to the metro station. Went and bought a plastic pool before we came back to my mom's house so the girls and I could cool off! Got a txt from DH @ around midnight last night....He has left the FOB he was at so HOPEFULLY he's in Kuwait right now awaiting his next flight to the US! I'm hoping he's here by Sunday or Monday at the latest!
Haved a fun trip and safe travels
Sounds like you guys had fun today! We didn't do a whole lot, although I think I picked up the absolute last of what i *had* to buy for this trip!
Sounds good

I found most of the reports of Brazilian Tour Groups quite exaggerated.
