Looking For Control Freaks & Worry Warts too........ Part 2

[karajeboo]

Here I am..........


Side note…do you think other adults make fun of me behind my back because practically every day I have a Disney item of clothing on some part of my body (usually my shirt)???????

If they do, punch 'em in the nose!

Here's hoping your mom starts feeling better!

Kara - OH YEAH! I actually found her and emailed her about how you use the shared drive to personalize them. She offered to try to do them before we leave. I told her it was short notice, so if she did that was great, but I was just thrilled to have the pictures to print!

I completely missed that one with LIGHTNING! Thank you so much. I will use it to make his little letter.

So sorry to hear about DD. I think that bleeding from the ears would make me absolutely flip out. Glad to hear that the dr says it will be okay. Congrats on the weight loss. I didn't go to WW this past week. I need to go this week, but don't want to. I've gained 3 lbs. I have just lost motivation for some reason. That and the weaning I think. I hate to go and weigh in when I have gained weight. YUCK!

Debbie - Yeah, I went to the Disney store and got all kinds of $3 shirts for the summer. Where else can you find them that cheap? So my whole summer wardrobe is Disney. DH laughs at me. Whatever. He can go be happy in his suit.

Hey - do you have that new thread link handy. If this one closes down I wondered how to find it!

Just in case......

I missed a lot. I could be the last post?

Debbie Congrats on the airfare. I too will drive myself nuts with the watching game. I freaked out on the way home from picking DD up from school (no more bus for the mercenary). I thought I heard that Air Tran filed bankruptcy. I just checked and it was only ATA. Whew!

Kara- Glad to hear the ear thing is okay. Feel for you her. No fun not being able to go swimming.

Renee- I have seen those things you put on crocs at the kiosks at the malls around here. They might be there. Someone also said they got some at Claires.

On more worry-- I've been reviewing my dining ressies. I have the DxDDP. I have booked 12 meals and have 3 left. We arrive Monday at 2 pm. I'm not sure if I should just fly by the seat of my pants for the remaining ones or if I should attempt to get ADR's. DH says just let them be.

Mon - MK Cindy's royal table dinner 4pm (counts as 2)
Tuesday MK :Breakfast Crystal Palace, Lunch ? Dinner at Ohana
Wednesday Epcot Breakfast Askerhaus, Lunch Coral Reef Dinner Germany
Thursday AK Breakfast Tuskerhouse, lunch Flame Tree BBQ? Dinner Chef Mickeys
Friday MGM Breakfast? Lunch SciFi Dinner ? Have to be on the road by 3 pm to make it West Palm by 6 pm. (Wish we could stay longer )

Laura, couple of things.... First, I love AirTran! They say they have the youngest fleet of aircraft in the industry. I saw my pilot the last time I flew and figured they must have the youngest fleet of pilots, too! But great service, I just wish they flew direct to more places.

As for your ADRs, with the deluxe plan, I totally agree with your DH - I've been twice that first week in May and you should be able to walk into most places for lunch without a ressie. Or if you know earlier in the day or a couple days ahead of time, just ask the concierge at Pop to make the ADR for you. That's what we did last time we went. We did not do the dining plan and only did a couple of TS restaurants. We actually booked Mama Melrose the same day we ate there. I think the deluxe plan sounds great, but you're talking a LOT of rigidity there, so I would hold off on those last 3 and if you're wandering around WS in Epcot, maybe you decide to use it for someplace that you would never consider, like Marakesh (love it!!!!) or the Biergarten in Germany.

And yes, you are right about Claires selling jibbitz. Also, just about anyplace that sells crocs sells them, too.

Laura, you and I are going to need to meet when we're there!

Still worrying about my Mom. She is still all crampy inside and doesn’t understand why she isn’t feeling better.

Side note…do you think other adults make fun of me behind my back because practically every day I have a Disney item of clothing on some part of my body (usually my shirt)???????

Debbie - Hope your mom starts to feel better soon! I think once that spring weather hits, it should make a difference for everybody!

And re: Disney clothes. Hmmm, let me ponder that over as I sit here in my long-sleeve jewel studded Mickey Mouse t-shirt. Who cares what others say - they just don't get the magic!

Dr doesn't know why DD's ear is bleeding again. Doesn't appear infected, and there's no sign of the tube in that ear. He thinks maybe she scratched it? Either way, no swimming for a few days! She's so bummed she can't go to Kid's Club, but with them swimming every afternoon from 1230-430 there's just no way. Guess she's stuck with me now!

Sorry about DD's ear. That should be fun trying to keep a kid out of the pool for a few days. I think to cheer her up you should go shopping!

I completely missed that one with LIGHTNING! Thank you so much. I will use it to make his little letter.

The letter from Lightning is such a cute idea! And he'll never know. Also, another fun thing to do for the kids, get a wake-up call in the morning. It's usually a character; most of them are cute, except for Stitch: "Wakey, Wakey!"

On more worry-- I've been reviewing my dining ressies. I have the DxDDP. I have booked 12 meals and have 3 left. We arrive Monday at 2 pm. I'm not sure if I should just fly by the seat of my pants for the remaining ones or if I should attempt to get ADR's. DH says just let them be.

Laura - I agree with Kara. If you're just looking to fill lunch ressies, I would wing it; that way you could see what you're in the mood for and then eat accordingly. I've never had a problem getting TS for lunch.

Well, I guess I'll be seeing all of you at the new thread; I'm sure this one will be done soon. Had a wasted day today - got a call from DDs school while I was on the threadmill - she wasn't feeling well and I had to pick her up. She spent the day laying on my lap while I rubbed her back & belly. No matter how old they get, they still want to snuggle with Mom when they feel sick. (ok - so maybe it wasn't a wasted day afterall!) C U l8r!

So can you do that in advance or do you do it over the phone. I'm wondering how I will be able to "sneak" that one in for DS since it is just he and I?

I'm doing the same set up as you on Thursday, so of course I think that is a good idea now. I will let you know how that goes for me. I wasn't nuts about the sci fi movie trailers being shown at the SciFi, so that is why we skipped it. I do have a question though, I know you are doing the dining plan. How many nights are you staying - and did you realize that you only get them based on the number of nights? I thought it was based on days, but it goes by the nights. JUST in case you didn't know that. I'll be able to tell you how it goes for us after I come back. I've been warned that with little ones two TS meals are too much a day. We eat out a lot, so I doubt that, but we will see. I would say go ahead and get the ADRs and change them if you need to. That way you have something. I can't believe how everything has been sold out for our dates starting two weeks ago. I can't even move times around. Granted, now is more crowded than when you are going, but I'd say book it then change it if you wanted TS at those times. Otherwise, since you have so many TS you might really just want a by the seat of your pants CS then... Oh what do I know, it isn't like I have been yet Oh, BTW I've heard that Peco's and Cosmic Rays are the two best CS in MK - but you probably have heard that too!

 

[CRdisMom]

Glad you reminded me of that. I knew that it was based on nights but for some reason I planned like it was based on day. Yikes. Guess we will play it by ear for some of them. But the snack will keep us going. I am going to go nuts with planning.

I'm in the process of laying out clothes now. I know it isn't for almost month but I have to have everything figured out or I will worry. I woke up last night dreaming I was on Space Mountain and they wouldn't let me off.

We'll miss you but can't wait to hear about your adventure.....

 

[Camster0307]

So can you do that in advance or do you do it over the phone. I'm wondering how I will be able to "sneak" that one in for DS since it is just he and I?

If I recall, it's an automated service. So when you get to your room, just push the button on the phone for "wake-up call" - you'll be asked to punch in the numbers to reflect the time you want to be woken up. You don't have a choice of characters though, but it's a different one each day: we've had Mickey; Goofy; Tigger; a princess (can't remember who), and Stitch.
