Happy Day closer everyone!!!

Getting excited now. 10 more sleeps for me. Not sure it will be a full 10 as I doubt I'll sleep the night before.

Right now I would be happy if I could get some sleep tonight. I usually sleep like crap unless I've taken my sleep med but I can only take it 4 nights a week.

I was suppose to see the sleep dr on the 18th, but they moved it to the 29th. that is only for the consultation - not the sleep study.

At least I have Disney to look forward to.

I can relate to the not sleeping. Had trouble in the past. Much better now, but can't tell you exactly how or why.

I'm almost packed. Most of the clothes I am taking are new or things that I don't wear that often. I just need to stop adding to my suitcase or changing/adding my 'outfits' is the problem. lol

And Thanks Darcy for the phone tree by the way!

I'm getting excited but I still have so much to do before I leave. I can't wait to go somewhere that hasn't got monsoon type rain the last month. The forecast for rain this week alone is at least 50% chance if not more EVERY day and it rained every day last week. Our weather has eeyore-ish

ABSOLUTELY! Being a nurse, you probably make a good living, and I'm in the market for a "sugar momma".....

How long of a drive is it??

Est 16 hours, 40 min. Adding stopping for gas and one of the girls will have to stop for the bathroom fairly often, I suspect, I'm actually thinking it'll run us closer to 18 and 40 min. I'm more of the type to load and go, no stopping unless neccessary, but... not all my girl friends like traveling like that. I do think we're going to stop once we're in FL and hit a beach in the morning. Another girl friend coming along has never been to a beach before. So, I figure some nice, white sand beaches and clear water would be a good visit for her.

And I do alright with the truckers - years of driving with them from college. I'll just miss having a CB to talk to them!

Fun part is, they don't read maps, and one hates driving. So... I'm the navigator. I mentioned that if I needed to come back home early for emergency, I was going to have some $$ set aside for a quick flight. The other driver panicked. Asked how they would get home.. um.. car we came in? Well, but how will we know how to... um.. same way we came? But, we might get lost! I'm taking a GPS for them. Don't do well with those myself - tend to get annoyed when they keep telling me how to drive and where to turn. But, I expect they'll like it a great deal.

It will be a REALLY fun drive, though. Lots of Disney songs played and perhaps a DVD or two watched while en route.

LMAO Love it! Yes, use to talk to the guys when we would drive too with the CB. Was fun and helpful at times to know when a wreck was ahead and speed traps.

Happy CINCO DE MAYO!!!! while whats left of it!!!

 

[JohnEric]

I see this company selling masks to wear for protection against the flu.....

Reminds me of an old Twilight Zone episode.

Loved that episode... looks like he's holding his breath, though, so maybe the mask isn't very effective...

Anyway, hope he doesn't turn out like the characters in the episode...

 

[nurse.darcy]

But she spends it all at Disney

And how the bleep would you know where I spend my money.

 

[Beavis]

I had to send my phone in to see if they can fix a couple of buttons - I hope they can so I can get it back in time for my trip and time to program everyone number in.

A couple of years ago I was on a solo trip to WDW, and my sister was in Orlando at the time for work, so she suggested that we stay together at WDW to save on costs and spend some time together. She added that she would be renting a car with GPS. So one night, we're driving off-site for a show in downtown Orlando and the GPS works just fine and we get there, no problem. After the show, we're set to return to WDW and she says to me "what's the address again of where we're staying?" After I stopped laughing, I blurted out "Jenn! You do realize we're going to the best marked destination in the US, right??.. I think we'll be ok."

Safe travels!
