October trips...time to get excited!!!

Exactly 5 days from now my plane takes off! :goodvibes Just can't seem to wipe the grin off ny face.
 
At this time one week from today we (DS7 and I) will be 1 hour away from landing in Orlando. I am beyond excited. I am doing the countdown of "this is the last Thursday night before we leave", etc :cheer2: :woohoo:
 

We leave in however many days it says on my ticker, and I need at least another week to get everything done. I've been planning since February, too! :scared1:
 
Whoo-hooooo!!! 3 weeks from RIGHT THIS MINUTE we'll be beginning our descent into the Orlando International Airport, returning our carryons to the overhead compartments, bringing our seatbacks to the full upright position and stowing our tray tables! :cool1:

This trip is a surprise for my 6 yr old daughter - I can't decide whether to tell her the night before, that morning or just tell her we have to take Daddy to the airport and tell her there. CAN'T WAIT!

:yay:


AIRPORT!!!! We did the same thing to our dd at the same age and we got her good! She was dancing in the parking lot. So my vote goes for airport.

We leave in however many days it says on my ticker. My dd said that she wanted to be suprised on this trip also and I am having a terrible time. I want to tell her so bad. I finally got her to say that it was ok for me to tell her 2 days before we were going so that she could help plan, pack, and we could talk about everything.

Ok so I am down to 13 days. I am done with work at 1am Wednesday morning until the 27th. I/we need this vacation so badly.
 
7 days - so excited, but nervous!!!! Starting to watch the weather forecast....:rolleyes:

Does anyone else have a terrible time trying to take off work???? It seems like every time I take a vacation it is a huge issue...:sad2:

You too with the issues at work ? Glad I'm not alone...I have a gov't job with a perk of when you work O/T you can "bank" the time instead of taking the pay...my behind is in that office every work day unless I'm sick from Nov 18 through June 20th then twice a year I schedule my WDW trips my co-workers and yes even my boss seems to get a major attitude problem when I put in for the time off...I am finally learning to chalk it up to jealousy on their part & dismiss the aggravation and the snide remarks...Mickey here I come in 6 days !

Oh yes. My husband and I both work retail. They don't want us to take any time off after Halloween. Our week off is October 27 - November 2. It took some campaigning for both of us to get the week off.
 
Getting time off isn't the issue - I can take time off pretty much whenever. It's annoying, though, because I have to train a temp every single time I want to take more than a half a day off.
 
The problem isn't taking the work days off....it's when I come back! All my work is stacked in piles for me to catch up when I return to work. But no matter what a trip to WDW is worth a work week of h**l!:cool1:
 
Two days! :scared: And I am still typing up touring plans! :scared1: And I haven't even started doing laundry or packing clothes yet! :faint:
