I've paid the balance of the holiday (except villa, balance due next week so sending it now), made my ADR's, amended ALL my ressies, flights etc to add one extra person (gotta love them last minute "i'll come too" people :rolleyes: ), bought my tickets, planned my routes around the area, worked out where we're going when and booked the tours.

Now what do i do? Two months to WDW and it's all done......... :confused3
 
I had the same problem! The DIS boards kept me busy.

Someone suggested this to me...
Make a countdown chain with one link for each day until your trip. Take away one link each day. It is really fun to watch the chain grow shorter.

Also, start making your packing list.

Now you torture yourself as you wait for the big day :teeth: .. That's what I always do
 
I then read trip reports from the time-frame i'm going from the year before... i get a better feel for weather, crowds, rehabs, etc, and usually find a tip i hadn't thought of. also, trip reports that the people stayed in the same resort i'll be staying in. have fun counting down!
 

I'm all done and we're going in DECEMBER and it's a surprise for my son so we can't even talk about it at home!!!!!

I just read these boards each day and don't beat myself up about any choices I made. What's done is done and that's how it's going to stay.

I do have to work at my husband who wants to tell my son (He can't keep surprises, I always get my gifts a week before the actual day) we're going. We have been 3 times already and 2 times He knew and 1 time it was a surprise. He still thinks that was the best time and says I hope you surprise me this next time. It will really be a surprise because we were there last December and He won't be expecting to go again so soon. We had a bad year (2 broken arms in one year for our son and I was in a major car accident last January with a severe concussion and a pelvis broken in 4 places). Not complaing though, we're still alive and well recuperated.

ENJOY your trip and just relax (because you won't get to there) till it's time to leave
 
We're all done as well (as of last week). We have the Passporter so I've been "allowing" myself to read only one chapter a week...it kind stretches out the book that way. I listen to subsonicradio.com for all kinds of park audio/music. And of course, I come on Dis. :)
 
Make a list of what to pack....unless you are a frequent traveler, I find it makes it easier to remember what you need.
Start shopping for the toiletries you need. Pick up a few here or there, it spreads out the cost.

I am a list person, I made a list of the amount of clothes I would need, then organized them into outfits to minimize the number of shoes and accessories. (I'm a list freak :blush: ) Besides, it makes more room for souveners.
