Jo


YAY! :yay: :woohoo: :hug:


Hurry up with those details....We want to know what happened!
 

Wanted to drop by and say "Hi" fellow May Disers. Countdown is on the move. Seems like it was in the three hundred day range and it is now down so close to the one hundreds for us!!:cool1: I thought for sure my brain surgery recovery-three weeks in the hospital and 7 weeks at home would go so slow. I then got out of the hospital two days early and then talked my neurosurgeon into letting me go back to work three weeks early and we have been so busy there and with DD's ASA softball tournaments fall has been flying by!!!:thumbsup2 I am so ready for a Disney fix again:wizard:
 
Hey guys...we have some really bad winds today.

Malibu is on fire again, over 500 acres. A church has been lost and Hodge castle (a local landmark) is burning right now. The fire is near Pepperdine University, Malibu Canyon Rd.; the students have been evacuated and PCH is closed. The winds are blowing embers all over the place, causing new fires everywhere. Winds are up to 80 MPH.

I have some friends who live out there and I am trying to reach them right now to see if they are OK. More later...
 
YAAAYYY!!! JO!!!! November is the BEST time in the WORLD to go!! We'll be there at the end of the month!!!!! :woohoo: In November of 2008!! YAY!!
 
Hi guys,

My friends have evacuated their homes and animals today in Malibu.
My son's teacher is one of the evacuees. The fire is pretty bad up there. Very hard for the firefighters to get at the fire in the canyon areas.

I took some pictures and video of skyline and smoke in Malibu (as far as they would let me (The Getty Villa) just past Sunset Blvd. and tonight from Palisades Park in Santa Monica.

Check out this short montage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHvqU--g4V4

There are 13 fires in our area. Lots of sirens all the time and the air is very smoky. It was a very warm day and it will be like that tomorrow. Bummer!

Seacrest~

Oh my. I hadn't watched the news all weekend and when I finally heard about Malibu, my first thought was "Oh, I hope Seacrest is okay!". It's good to know you are safe.:grouphug:

So sorry about your friends and your son's teacher.

Watched the video.:sad1: Even with all of the smoke, it is still a beautiful place.

Hugs and prayers go out to you and yours this morning.

Be safe,

Jo

Hey Seacrest - Sure hope things get better today. We're all thinking of you and your friends! :grouphug:
 
YAAAYYY!!! JO!!!! November is the BEST time in the WORLD to go!!!

WHAT??? :scared1: Did you just say there was a better time to go than MAY :snooty: :snooty: :snooty: ??? Just kidding!! :rotfl: I know you didn't enjoy MAY as much as some of us!

That will be so cool if DMM & JO end up going at the same time!! :cool1:

I am actually thinking of January or December 2009 for our next trip. :yay: Haven't exactly ran this by DH yet! :lmao:
 
Mornin MAYers~:snooty:

I hope ya'll will all forgive me for being a November'er:) I will be sad in May as you are all leaving, but Maybe DMM and I can share our sorrows together and look forward to a different month.;)

Sooo, pull up a chair and grab a cup of coffee and listen to my story...:surfweb: It's long...


Saturday, 10/20, 11 am:

I'm on the resort thread, looking at pictures of rooms...
DH walks in from the gym, asks, "What are you doing?"

Me- "Dreaming."
DH- "Are you ready to go back?"
Me- "Yes. It's been 6 months."
DH- (laughing) "That long, huh?"
Me- "Well, it's been a year since we took the children."
DH- "Oh, well, I'm going to take a shower."
Me- "sigh, okay. We have to leave in an hour for Drew's game."
DH- "Okay"

After his shower, I knew I had planted somthing in his brain, because he came down smiling. He walked in the room and said, "Did you find a resort you liked?":scared1:

Me- (cautiously) "Well, you know I love the Poly..."
Dh- "Yeah, well, we'd still need two rooms. Personally, I loved POFQ. We could get two rooms there and it wouldn't be as cramped, we'd have two bathrooms."
Me- "uh-huh."

Then, nothing. Watched college gameday, and Lee Corso putting the Gator head on, chomping the University of Kentucky crowd. It was at that moment, I had the idea of ALL ideas, and I went with it.:idea:

Me-"It's been 8 years since we went to a game, Baby."
DH-"I know, it's been a long time since we were in Gainesville."
Me- "Okay, crazy idea, but what if we start planning now, for getting tickets to the UF/SC game. We don't tell the kids, send them to school like normal the Friday before the game, then pack the car up, go get them from school and go to the airport. Then we fly into MCO, rent a car, drive to Gainesville, stay two nights, go to the game, and then drive back to MCO on Sunday and spend the rest of the week in Disney?":upsidedow (I was holding my breath...)
Dh- "Hum, if we start planning now, we could have it paid for by then, and we'd have a better shot at getting tix to the game. Sounds like a plan. Let's do it."

OH. MY. GOSH. HE SAID, AND I QUOTE "LET'S DO IT." AS IN, YOU PLAN IT. I'LL PAY FOR IT. WHATEVER YOUR PRECIOUS HEART DESIRES.:love: OMG. I LOVE THIS MAN.:woohoo:

And, the kicker is, he's looking forward to it already!:laughing: He told our neighbor yesterday when we all went to the park together. And he told him it was a secret we are keeping from th kids! I was laughing.:rolleyes1

Last night I looked up the dates. It will be November 14-22, at POFQ. I have to call for ressies this am. I am beyond excited.

Okay, that's the gory details. We will be there after Veteran's Day crowds, and before Thanksgiving crowds. We get to see Disney in all it's Christmas splendor, once again. :santa:

Okay, more coffee, please.

Jo
