Leaving in 9 days - too busy to plan

[CuteKatCar]

I have been so overwhelmed right now - with everything - work, my kid's school and activities - that I can hardly concentrate on disney. I never wanted to go at this time of year because of how busy we are. We leave in 10 days.

I planned my "what parks on what days" and did my priority seatings, but that's about it. Have packed some of our summer clothes. I keep saying that I'm going to disney to relax (yea, right). But, I'm just not that into the trip. I hope I get excited soon!!

Am I nuts? Anyone else overwhelmed and can't concentrate on disney?

Just relax and enjoy the days leading up to your trip. If everyone writes down their can't miss rides and you work from that list I think you will come home happy and satisfied. You can't see it all and do it all so just have fun and ride those important rides.

I Feel your pain !! We are going in November (26th) and although I am beginning to get really excited, I soon am overwhelmed by all the things that must be done. But I know it is all worth it, everytime I call and get the music on hold at Disney I am reminded how special that place is and how I can not wait to get there!!

Anna - We're coming along. Hope you don't mind

We're in the same boat as you. We've given virtually no thought to the trip yet. We've been so busy with work, school, life in general. We are non-planners so that really isn't a big deal. We don't believe in PS's in advance. We pick what park to do each day the nite before while we're there - sometimes the morning of depending on weather and other factors. I'll never understand how people plan those things in advance but its great if it works for you.

DON'T FORGET!!!

There is a DIS meet on Thurday, November 4th at 2:00PM at EPCOT by the main fountain on the side facing World Showcase. I'll be there with my gray DIS shirt. All 3 of us will have green Mickey heads on our shirts/backpack/fanny packs. Several people have said they will be there or try to be there. Hope you can join us. It will be really nice to actually meet people in person.

Have a safe trip and a great vacation. And PLEASE come over and say hello if you see us there.

Safetymom is right.

Okay - here is my "$150 to lay on my couch" suggestion. Take a long hot (hot as you can handle) bubble bath.

It will all come together. You should really sit back and take some time to yourself and the planning will come together.

Maybe you should have went with your first instinct and not planned the trip???

I have so many things to do I just don't know where to start. I'm trying to take it one day at a time. I am very excited about the trip but all the work I need to do is overwhelming. On top of everything else my sister had her baby yesterday and I was her coach so I was there all night so I am exhausted but here I am on this computer because I am addicted. Now if I can just pry my butt off of this seat and do something to get ready.

Thanks for support.

Dizneynewbee - that was always me. I wouldn't clean my house because I was on the DIS! Now I barely have time to scan the boards.

Steve - We will be at MK on that Thurs, but may leave by that time, so maybe we'll see you there. I have worn green ribbons on every trip and have never seen anyone!! We did do an Illuminations cruise once and met people - cleo from these boards is the only one I can remember.

It will be interesting for me to go to Disney and not have planned every second! I didn't even buy a guide book (don't need one at this point after all the trips). I'll let you know how it works out.
