MKY: I hear what you are saying about the discounts. I can totally understand wanting the view. I mean, you have been to the parks so at this point you actually enjoy your time at the hotel. Different from a lot of people out there. You should do what you want. For us it is either or. Either we change hotels to a moderate or we add the water parks to our ticket. We can't do both. I don't care though, I am just happy to be going.
....we went to the beach for a little vitiman D
....and rest !!!!
...I`m sure the girls have definate things that they "Must DO"..and there`s just so many hours in one day
Hiya!
Re-working the numbers on the dining plan. But doesn't seem to be much better as far as deals go, for us. 2 in a deluxe is not the saving area. Pretty much even, without the hassel of moving, and staying somewhere, not as appealing to me. 
Will have to talk to sis tommorrow, see if she wants to stay somewhere else? or split? OR maybe I will get some pixie dust with an ap rate.
I think we are going to add the water parks and more option to our tickets. They keep asking about a water slide (even DH) and when I said Pop does not have one they looked like someone had just died! 
I looked into upgrading to POR but it would cost $500 more for the hotel upgrade and to upgrade the tickets is only $200. We did a lot of work on the house this year and bought a new car so we have to be a bit more budget conscience this time around. I think in the end they will enjoy staying at Pop, I have read great things, and will enjoy hitting the water parks on our pool days instead of hanging out at the resort all day. I am sure all of your planning is done. Now you can just sit back and enjoy your countdown.
Means getting my head back into it all over again. We have 2 one day base tickets, one left from last year and the other starts on our second reservation which is 8/26. On top of that we have 4 ADULT one day tickets. I was looking into upgrading one of the kids tickets to add extra park days or making the 2 kids tickets into 2 day passes and then using the 2 adult tickets for 2 days of park time. In the end, we either add another park day for $200 or add the water parks to everyones 1st one day base ticket for the same $200. I don't think there is any other way to do it. Of course I could be missing something but nobody else in my house really cares about figuring it all out.
We still have 3 weeks to go. I am more looking forward to the afterschool stuff being done, school at least keeps them on a schedule (and me too!). I know that the summer is going to bring a constantly trashed house 
and me being cranky over it. I sometimes feel like the world spins without me with everyone is home at the same time. Of course there is the stuff I am looking forward to too. I will be nice to sit around on the front porch and RELAX.
I have not done that since January right after the holidays.
he was so excited.
...
it's a real mess
We have a new contract next march. I feel for you. Hope everything got settled.
You lost me with that ticket figuring. 
They said it was being strictly enforced now. I checked with 2 different cm's, the first was very nasty. Unusual for wdw- dine, but it must be a touchy subject today. The 2nd lady was polite and explained it.
