Just some thoughts...not sure if right thread

Hi everyone, I am pretty new to these boards, but share a common bond with all of you....a true love of Disney!

I am writing this because I keep finding myself logging onto these boards, reading all of the wonderful posts. My homepage is set to CNN so everytime I go online, there is something about the war and I am finding these boards to be such a happy, upbeat place that I am spending most of my online time browsing here.

Reading everyone's posts about happy memories, future trips, and general disney chit-chat is the perfect escape during these sad times. It also makes me that much more excited about my trip.

I guess I just wanted to say thanks to you all for sharing your disney stories...I think everyone would agree that these boards are a great place to "hang out"!!

Have a great day~ Tracy

Welcome!!!!

This is definitely a relief for me. I love to check in and see what's going on. It gets me really hyped for my trip (even if it's now for awhile )

Hi Tracy,

Welcome to the happiest board on earth!! Be careful,before you know it you will become addicted.I completely agree with you, this is where I come to get away from it all.

What a wonderful post, Tracy! I thought for years I was nuts. The two bests parts of these boards: One, the constant exchange of information that turns planning into a science so being in Disney doesn't have to be. And two, knowing that if my wife and I are nuts, we're just two nuts in a fifty ton drum of 'em.

And a suggestion, which I did recently. Change your start page to Disboards! You can't hide from what's going on in the world, but you can face it better if you start your day with a smile instead of a frown.

tidoublegger thank you so much for your thread. I feel the same way and I have changed my home page to http://www.disboards.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=2 too. This is not only how I start my day but spend a great deal of it.

Welcome to our family and find a couple of links to play and have fun.

Hi all!!! I also am fairly new to the board and find myself drawn here more and more. I watch the news on tv but, when I sign on to the Disboard my stress level falls. It is so friendly and informative. I love to read how everyone else's trip planning is going. I am also having a great time using all the information that I am learning for my own. I have been to Disney alot, but am still surprised about how much I do not know. Thank you all for the happy relief. Keep planning.

I am so very addicted. I recently set my home page to the Disboards too. I spend nearly every waking hour on the boards(my kids always have the TV occupied). I sign on, click view newest posts, read all the way to the last page then start all over again! I have learned so much from the boards I feel like I've already been to WDW! I'm even starting to recognize peoples siggies. I'd like to thank all of you for telling us your stories and answer all of our questions. I know that even after my trip I will still feel at home here!

i think its a good thing for everyone to find something to look at other than the war. Im not saying that we should ignore it, although i dont agree with it i often find myself watching coverage. But when that gets sickening i like to here!

I love visiting here Not only can I escape from my job but this is a great place for a daily Disney fix. I thought I needed counseling after returning home from our first visit but I found a whole bunch of people with the same symptoms as me

Thanks for the warm welcome...I've become an addict already! LOL! Well, I guess between this addiction and my coffee addiction, I'm in trouble! But I guess I could have worse addictions! Now I just have to get my head back into nursing school and away from WDW so I can finish this semester and gooooooooo on my trip the morning after finals!
