Ugh! I started working out again, really got into a swim class. Then, I woke up with a massive (and extemely dibilitating) stiff neck. From there a whole host of problems cropped up, including daily headaches - so it became very hard to get motivated to go to the gym.

Well, we're looking into fibromyalgia, which it turns out I could have been living with for years and not know it, thinking my "sensitive" muscles was just me. Seriously, someone would poke my arm and I'd say, "Ow" and they'd laugh and poke me again (my family, you know how they never take anything "minor" seriously). So, if it is fibromyalgia, it'll be interesting to see how I react to the meds. Will I sleep better (last night was wonderful). Will I ache less? Will my headache go away (not migraine, BTW)? Will I finally be motivated to go back to the gym???

Well, we'll see about that last one....

[ForTheLoveOfDCL]

We lost my grandma during the night last night. Funeral is Sat. in Michigan. Think we are leaving Thursday after work, and coming home Saturday night. Going to be a quick trip. She is in a much better place, and after being so sick for a long time, I know she is finally happy.

Kim[/QUOTE]

I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

 

[ForTheLoveOfDCL]

yes anyone can email me a photo at micanddel0628@yahoo.com

Well, I'm starting to feel like I'm getting things accomplished! I ordered Riley and Baileys pirate costumes today. I went to the 99cent store today and picked up a few things for the cruise, like bungee cords to tie our connecting doors open, and a couple of blow up rafts for CC. And I'm now checking the mail anxiously for our MNSSHP tickets. It's getting closer....

My mother has fibromyalgia. I understand what you are going through, after seeing her suffer. Some days are better that others. She is on medicine and it does seem to help.

Well, I started buying "stuff" for the cruise today. Started stocking up on sunscreen today. Target had 2 cans of spray for $12.

I already have meds packed,bandaids, neosporin,swimmers ear, collaspable hampers and bins for shoes, Ummm our whole wardrobe, U name it I have it! multi outlet cord, over the door organizer....I make sure I feel somewhat organized when I am there. It's funny I traveled with friends last time and their room looked like a tornado hit it, my room look like I had a maid cleaning it...oh that was me. I try to keep it neat for my stateroom attendent!

I am getting excited. I can't wait till we leave! I am hoping to get my MNSSHP tickets sometime mid aug, with my first paycheck from my new job. Woohoo.

Kim--sorry to hear about ur grandmother.....she must be dancin a jig in heaven and so happy!

Well I hope everyone likes the set up of the family photos and feels like the pages load up better with multiple photo pages. I took mine off, I am hoping to have one taken this weekend and update it in the next week! I hope everyone has a goodnight!

Mindi-
What part of St. Louis are you visiting? I live in St. Louis, actually right near it, but I work in St. Louis.

Alright.....Where is everyone today??? Hello.....Hello(echo)! Well I guess everyone is gone. I have had better days. Had a tooth pulled....and now I need to have some filings done. Unfortunately for the last 9 yrs my teeth have taken a beating because the Post office doesn't have dental insurance, so DH and I just bought into some this yr and now I can get somethings done. I have taken all our money and put it into the kids mouths(their more important)....so now I have to have some filings, but as long as I can save them thats all that matters.... Well I am sure you all enjoyed that story...LOL And the pain meds are kickin in so I think I will be back later. Hopefully someone has been here! TTFN

 

[schmoopiecat]

I know all about the pain meds ,,, enjoy but not too much

 

[disneydiva16]

Michelle~Atleast you wont be in pain anymore. I hate going to the dentist but it is a necessary evil!

Thank goodness it is now the weekend! I feel like this week took forever. I hope everyone has a great weekend. Talk with everyone soon!!!

 

[DisneyCruiser83]

Aww, Michelle I hope the pain meds kick in soon, but the bright side is you have yourself set for another six months you won't have to worry about it!

Well, I have a pirate-y skirt and a pirate-y shirt, but am still looking for a sash to go around my waist and shoes. Does anyone know where I might find something like this? I plan on using the bandana provided at dinner, so I was thinking a red sash and brown shoes (the skirt is brown and the shirt is white). We are at about 10 weeks, and I cannot wait! Have a great weekend everyone!

 

[ForTheLoveOfDCL]

Good Morning everyone.....

My pain meds did kick in but Tess unfortunately I need some more work done so I will be visiting a few more times before my next cleaning!

Kim---thanks girlie for your photos.....cute boys! Nice dog ya have too...oh yeah that was pluto... Just looking at that photo I am so looking forward to character breakfast!!!

Oh my are we getting closer??? The days are flying but it seems we never get closer. I am so ready except I need to work to earn money for MNSSHP tickets. I got like 74 days...Oh how I wish I was getting on the plane. I would settle for that right now dont even have to board the ship yet.

Well I am off to do some laundry. I have 2 extra youngins(8 and 2) in my home this weekend and its gloomy and rainy here, that stinks , dont really want them to be stuck in the house....though they are enjoying some Wii time! TTFN

Hey everyone! Hope you are all having a great weekend.

Hey Michelle, sorry to hear about your teeth issues. I hope the pain isn't too bad today. I'm glad you're taking care of your teeth. My dad was afraid to go to the dentist so he didn't go for years. His teeth were so terrible. His gums were infected and teeth were rotting and falling out. Not the most attractive sight or smell for that matter. Thankfully, my step-mom held his hand (so to speak) and now he has all the bad teeth gone, the gums fixed and absolutely beautiful dentures. He loves to smile now. So, take care of those teeth!

Well, I think I'm driving poor milliepie nuts with all my graphics requests. BUT, after the last batch she sends me I'm done. As soon as my magnet paper arrives I can start printing the door magnets out. YEAAAAAAAAAAA

Well, I'm off to go do some more stuff around the house and for the cruise. Take it easy everyone! Kristi

 

[HeatherD]

I just ordered some Magnet paper off ebay and got a great price! Since we have a laserjet, I'll have to print everything at MIL's house, but since half of the magnets are for her door, I'm sure she won't mind!

I got Millipie to do a Family magnet, but I haven't gotten anyone to "bite" for the individual names. I've worked on some, so I may go with what I've got....I just don't like the fonts I have available that are "puffy" enough to have the graphics show up in the letters. But, boy, am I going magnet crazy! I didn't think I'd do that many magnets and now I have to reign myself in....

Happy weekend, everyone! DD is going with my parents to see The Lion King (on stage - her birthday present) and DH and I are going to see Harry Potter
(yeah, I'm that excited about it! )

Heather - Your daughter and parents will LOVE the Lion King. We took Amaya to see it in June when it was in Sacramento and it was awesome! Let me know how they like it.

Have a great weekend all!

Hi All! Gosh I had not realized how long it has been since I logged in. I see a few of us on FB, but just hadn't made it over to the official boards.

Well, my little girl (only one in elementary now) started school on Thursday. (We are in a Yr-round SD) It never felt odd until this year with my new middle schooler having another month before he will start. I like her teacher and am looking forward to her having a really great year.

We went to see Harry Potter last night. LOVED it! This one seemed to have a lot more humor than the previous versions. I also liked the PG rating (although there still were a couple scary parts).

I am looking forward to ordering my FE stuff soon. Not crafty at all, so please don't be disappointed.

We have the final event for my sis' wedding next weekend. She was married in June in Cancun, but showers, bacherlorette parties, the wedding trip itself made it feel like quite an event...we will be going to the reception at her *new* house next weekend in Wisconsin.

Bought our MNSSHP tix last week (we are doing Oct 2)...Made all our ADRs for before and after at WDW...(Corinna, we will try to cheer for you at the Race for the Taste!...we were thinking about doing as a family, but couldn't swallow the 200 for that and 200 for MNSSHP )...looking forward to seeing what we can get on the cruise

Well, hope you are all doing well. I'll try to be a little better board friend going forward.

I have been so busy. Today was day 6 of 8 days in a row at work and all week has been manic. Still, most of the supplies for my little additional FE project have now arrived so I will spend some quality time with my pliers on my days off on Tuesday and Wednesday. I can't wait to get started.

(Corinna, we will try to cheer for you at the Race for the Taste!...we were thinking about doing as a family, but couldn't swallow the 200 for that and 200 for MNSSHP )

It is not me running, but DH. I am not sure if I could manage the 3 K, much less the 10 K. He was just fitted for some new running shoes and is now breaking them in. I will take the easy way out: I watch the start at Wide World of Sports, take the bus to Epcot, hopefully see him cross the finish line and join him for the picnic.
