Nothing to See Here...

Sherri (TheColtonsMom), I'll reply to you when I get back. Thanks so much for sticking with this TR.

________________________________________________

Okay, everyone - I finally heard from Shawn. I had to send another text message and e-mail to elicit a reply. I had a feeling she was not planning to back out on me at the last second - that would just be so wrong - but the lack of communication made me uneasy. Two days ago she may have backed out, but thisclose to departure day would be all kinds of messed up! (And too late for me to get a shuttle!).

Anyway, I asked her when she was getting me, and she said "between 4:30 and 5:00 a.m." I have a hunch she probably thought I meant to ask when she was leaving her house, not when she was getting here. I don't think she will show up at my house at 4:30 a.m.

In any case, I suspect she will leave at 4:30 or 5:00 and get to me by 5:15 or 5:45. If so, that's fine. I just needed to know what was happening for sure before I go out to run errands today. If she shows up at my door at 4:30, I would be stunned. This means she would have to leave at like 3:50 a.m.

Have you ever seen the Tasmanian Devil - Taz - from Looney Tunes? Of course you have. Everyone has. You know how he is always caught up in a cyclonic ball of some sort, a flurry of activity, with things flying around him at breakneck speed?

Well, hello. Nice to meet you. My name is Taz, and that's what I will look like in just a few hours (after I get back from errands).

So I think this will be the last you will all hear of me in this TR (unless something goes horribly wrong) until, oh, say, Thursday (possibly late Wednesday night, but we shall see).

It looks like the DLR holiday trip is on schedule and I will be forcing my many gift cards upon the people at the PPH in, say, about 19 hours or less!!!! I am going to ignore the fact that I must have slept the wrong way and aggravated my back and shoulder. I will ignore the weather forecasts that tell me it will be 85 degrees tomorrow. Who cares? I'm going to Disneyland at my favorite time of year ever!!!:cool1::yay::banana: I finally get to have a proper holiday trip (meaning one that involves multiple days and nights). Gibson Girl had better load up on the peppermint ice cream!! I'm a-comin'!!! Let the Quests begin!!!!;)

I will probably give this TR a title upon return. I tend to wait and see how the trip evolves before a name becomes evident to me. So I could think of something clever now, but I will wait and see what presents itself to me over the next few days as being a candidate for a title!!
 
Oh Sherry!! I am so thrilled to hear that Shawn is coming through!! That is great!! Have fun Taz!!

Thank you, Michele!:goodvibes

I'm going to be a maelstrom of frenzied activity as I go do my errands!!:rotfl2: That's me. Taz, I am.

Yes, I can't believe she is coming through. Wonder what happened?!:rotfl2:

I look forward to a couple of days alone, though, so I can get on a photo tear.

Be prepared for tons and tons of photos. Probably more than my poor ol' PC and Photobucket can handle.:sick:

I will get get your tree antenna topper as soon as I see it, Michele!!:cool1:

Psssst! I just bought some peppermint ice cream when I was out running errands - both the regular kind and the "slow churned" kind. But I am not eating any of it yet. I want my first taste of peppermint ice cream for this year to be at DLR, in one of those big chocolate sprinkled cones from Gibson Girl (where you have to wait 40 minutes in line).

Chances are, since it's supposed to be in the 80's tomorrow, that will be my ice cream day!:cool1:

Oh my gosh peppermint ice cream sounds so good right now.

:cool1: Heck yeah!
 
YAY!!!!! :yay: You should be there right now! MM started 3 minutes ago!

85 degrees?!? Aw, and I was hoping you'd come back with pics of you waving your scarf wildly in line at security, just to taunt them...;) Guess you won't be needing that scarf today. :)
 
Ah, Rudolph... I missed it! I knew it was on tonight and had plans to have pizza for dinner in front of the TV while we all watched it. But...as I was finding the channel we came across the Grinch (cartoon) as it was starting so we watched that instead. I was sure they would show Rudolph again. I mean, good grief, it was still November! And I assume the Grinch will be shown again, too,

I could have written that...LOL same thing happened at my house...I cannot believe Rudolph has not been on again and according to my guide wont be for at least the next week to 10 days. I have it on VHS and DVD but something about watching it "live" right.

My husband says Sherry and I were meant to be friends....both grew up in So Cal and practically grew up at Disneyland...born the same year 2 months apart (my birthday is May 21) Both with the same oft mis-spelled name attatched to songs people feel the need to serenade you with....and NOW Rankin Bass fan too LOL I have an entire bookcase full of figures from Rudolph, Year without a Santa Claus & Santa Claus is coming to town...I LOVE the miser bros! After 70+ pages I feel like I am getting to know you and your "regular posters" a bit & am finding I like you. hopefully once I have been around a while some of the people here will feel the same about me...
 
Here's me wishing your particular brand of Holiday Celebration turns out to be everything you hoped for and more...see you Thursday

The other Sherri
12 days 15 hours 47 minutes
Wow getting short! I have stuff to do!
 
Sherry I hope you are having a magical time!!
 
As much as I am happy for Sherry that she is celebrating the holiday at DLR...I also feel a little guilty that I am soooo jealous that she is there and I have to wait another 10 days 12 hours and 7 minutes until I can get in the car and head for the airport....
 
Is anyone else really feeling Sherry's absence on the boards? I keep looking for her replies to posts..especially on the Christmas ones.

Sherry, I know we'll hear from you in a couple more days and hope you are having an amazing time. Looks like you will get some of that cold you wanted!
