got the first half of our plane ticket--we get to Orlando @ 8:15 Friday night, will buy the return when SWA releases them on the 20th.

Great news on your grades!
When did you get your room assignment?

I would think after final payment because it's coming from DU and probably hasn't been done until they know for sure that you are not cancelling.


There sure are alot of cats. opening up for this cruise - this morning every cat 5-11 was available.

It is interesting that just 4 days ago there was a sign on the rebooking desk on the Magic that the canal cruises were full. Must be lots of cancelations coming in each day!

I hear ya Monica! I asked my mom for Disney Dollars....I don't even care if it's $10, it's what I can use, she feels however that one must have something to open.....

Tell her to put the Disney dollars in a box and wrap it up!

 

[MrsMork]

We are back, but I will never catch up so I am not even going to try. Let me know if there is big news I missed. Our cruise was great! My mom loved it, she danced and clapped at sailaway like all us other Disney kids! She also had her pirate outfit on Pirate night. She is 82. We had William for our server and he was awesome with her. He teased her and had her every single night. Such fun. I did not want to come home.

 

[MrsMork]

I need airfare from LA to Orlando. Any suggestions? Cheap of course!

Airtran had a half day sale of $117 a couple of weeks ago. I'm sure they will have it again or close to it.

Ya know, back in my 20s I was told....Cinderella doesn't exist, the Prince is dead and there is no horse. I lived in Manhattan. I never wanted to believe it. In my 30s I found out they were wrong because I found my Prince.....now, we don't live in a castle and we don't have a horse (but my neighbors do)....but DH is every bit of a Prince in my life.....and no matter what the circumstances, we do live happily ever after.

We do believe in fairy tales and romance and it does come true!

Holly, have you kissed a lot of frogs? If you have, then you're ready for your Prince to come. It will happen.

So happy we could all share it with you!!!

Too many frogs to count. But I don't want to count my eggs before they hatch with Blake....we haven't even re-met yet!

Airtran had a half day sale of $117 a couple of weeks ago. I'm sure they will have it again or close to it.

Thanks. I will keep checking with them. It is $149 now. Not bad, but I would like under 120 better!

This makes me laugh!! When I turned on the local news this morning at 5am, it was reporting that 32 school districts in Michigan were closed. I thought of you and what you were going to do with Tyler today.....I guess I knew before you did!!

I thought it was so funny that the DC TV stations were reporting school closings in Michigan!!

That's hilarious! I swear I'm really not blond! I've had many people over the years tell me they're sure I'm blonde and just dye my hair brown to hide it! I suppose episodes like this are why! We just don't watch much TV, and we didn't have the radio on in the car. The roads didn't seem bad to me. Hopefully I can get my employer to be nice enough to let me work extra hours this Wed, Thurs, & Fri to make up for missing today.

 

[HollyTyler]

I'm so happy....I just weighed myself and I lost the 5lbs that I gained over Birthday and Turkey day plus another 2lbs for a total of 7lbs in the last two weeks. Slow but steady we're making progress. YEAH!!!

GREAT JOB DEB!

 

[HollyTyler]

Oh no poor you.

I was thinking I probably end up same as you because I cannot hear the radio every morning. Can you make up the times at work as save lost a day of pay? Or what the policy of bad weather as not your fault if school shut? Just wonder about that.

Oh I must show the your photos of snowing with Tyler to my husband.

Scottishwee35

My work doesn't usually let people make up lost hours because if they do it for one person, they're afraid they'll have to do it for everybody and they want to encourage us all to be there when they need us. But I'm sure going to ask!

Welcome back! CONGRATS on your grades! Pharm was my best friend's worst class. I remember how much she struggled with it. Yuck! Great job!

Holly - what time are you making THE call?

Don't try and catch up. I am so glad your mom had fun. Don't be sad about coming home....you are going back very soon!!!

 

[HollyTyler]

I just tried to call Blake to get his e-mail address so I can send him a current picture. No answer. No voice mail. Must mean he was on the other line. Or maybe he got spooked by our phone conversations yesterday and just didn't want to answer my call.

OK...I'm off to watch Survivor from Thursday AND the finale!

 

[HollyTyler]

Holly - what time are you making THE call?

I must have been reading your mind because we posted about the same time!

Great minds think alike!

Well....caught up through Saturday, but must stop now and find food (also must wrap presents tonight).

ZIP LINE: I LOVE the idea of flying down the zip line. I'm not excited about schleping through the jungle in the humidity to do it though. (And I hear you, Holly, on the bathroom issue too).

Noel, have a wonderful trip visiting Mickey (don't know if I'll get a chance to post again before you go). Also have a great birthday.

Nan, yes, you lost your horseback rider when Peggy cancelled. So why don't you just pack up the kids and come to Phoenix for a visit? Jan/Feb/March is all great horseback riding weather. AND the Arabian horse show is in February...1500+ horses from around the world compete...it's pretty spectacular.

That's all for now folks...more catch up at lunchtime tomorrow.

Oh....didn't notice any tickers on the posts....what's our countdown?????

I spent the afternoon at the hospital and the news is not very good. They had to put Frank back into a coma. He has way too much congestion and he is heading towards Pneumonia. They have to put some type of meds down and suction him. They said can not breathe on his own at all. But it a Catch 22...the longer he has the ventalator, the worse the Pneumonia...but while he has Pneumonia they can't take out the ventalator.....

He tossed and turned a lot today and they had to tie him even more tightly so he does not pull tubes out.
