My friend asked me the same question yesterday about her deoderant. My baggie is pretty full too and I still need to find a way to jam a Gu in there.

Hey Cripey, I am driving up there. I can bring some and leave them at the front desk for ya or give them to you directly. Let me know!

AW, thanks for the offer...but I think I'll be ok bringing them with me. They just look a little funny. I tried to take away from the "drug mule" look of them by packing them in zip baggies that I found at Target long ago...they have crowns printed on them!!! Appropriate, no?

Ok I am going to try this. Laying in bed on iPad. Woke in the night with a terrible belly ache and now my feet are like ice block, my body aches and throwing up..TMI

OH NO!!! Hopefully it'll turn out to be a quick 24 hour bug. Fell better!

 

[JoyaDelMar]

Love the outfit. Great job on the shirt! My friend is going as Rapunzel and she's going to try to attach her Pascal to her shoulder with either safety pins or by sewing on snaps.

Thanks! I'm glad it worked out. Good idea about using pins or snaps. I'm just worried he'll be a bit bouncy. Oh well!

Enjoy your last few hours at work and have a safe flight tomorrow!!

Morning Princesses!

Hope you have a great weekend this weekend. Looks like the weather may not be your best friend but do not allow that to deter you from having a great time. Just remember, one stride at a time and you will soon be running through Cinderella Castle and then before long to the finish.

For you first time folks, this will be a life changing weekend. You will come out of the race with a new level of confidence that you will have from now on.

Wish I were there running as a frog. Maybe next year.

Thanks, Coach! I always remember your words: Relentless pursuit of forward momemtum.

Thanks Coach Charles. I got a lot of advice from you by reading the Marathon weekend thread.

Let me echo the thanks, Coach! I've seen a lot of good advice from you in the marathon weekend thread too. Do you have any last minute advice for us Princesses -- especially us first timers?

Do you have something you can pin him to where the bouncing won't bother you? Are you wearing a fanny pack type bag for instance? If you pinned him to that you probably wouldn't notice if he was moving around.

Hey Coach! I am guessing that you are still in TX?

Can someone help me again? I need to print off someone else's waiver and I can't remember the site nor can I find it. Help please? Trying to get this done during my plan time.

Oh no! I hope you feel better SOON!!! Sending pixie dust your way!

So, has anyone ever used epsom salts to aid your ailing muscles? I've always heard a good soak in epsom is supposed to help. I bought a bag the other day at the store that had lavender oils in it too and thought I might bring some along with me...if anything just to soak my poor tired feet in through the week. Does it actually work? Funny...I was in the kitchen last night measuring out 2 cup portions and putting them in little baggies...and BF says "you know you are TOTALLY getting searched at the airport right? White stuff in baggies???" Woops! oh well! I'll make sure I'm a little early to the security line just in case.

I love epsom salts, and I especially love the lavender ones because of the smell! It helps my muscles ache less, leaves myskin super soft, and helps me just relax too! You may get funny looks from the security people though since it does look bad LOL!!!



I gotta say, I have been so distracted at work this week! I only have to work 3 days, then flying out of Houston on Friday morning!! Should be in Orlando around 10:30 AM!!!!! I can't wait!!!

Hey, that's about the same time I'm due to be in Orlando. Are you on the early flight out of IAH on United by chance? If so, see you there

PS. I'm not a stalker

Thanks. Sad I didn't think to look there because we always get the info here first!!!

Walmart or Target sells little packs of liquid tide for washing..less than 3 oz.

Love salt bathes. I don't take them same day as LR but day after.

That's all I can right now.

Hope you feel better!

On another note I hate Q. This storm I swear is going to drive me nuts before I start driving out tomorrow. I keep hearing fluctuating snow fall totals. Western slope (area I live near) is supposed to get up to 10 inches! And I still don't trust Lakewood to call out the snow plows (they are supposed to doesn' mean I trust them). I am this close to saying screw driving tomorrow and booking a taxi to the airport. Dad wouldn't be happy but I sure would feel safer. Hell if the snow looks crazy enough I may just call a taxi with or without permission.

I'm starting to think my Princess trips maybe snow-jinxed. It snowed the morning I left for Florida last year too. Mind you it wasn't as bad as this year but still.

Oh and to make it even more fun, guess what? Its supposed to snow on Sunday.

Why did they have to name a storm after one of the most annoying loveable characters in Star Trek?

Awesome!! We are actually flying Southwest out of Hobby, bummer!! But may be on the same ME bus, where are you staying? We are at Port Orleans Riverside (booked one of their princess themed rooms, it seemed appropriate for this race weekend!)

We're staying at Coronado...but some friends coming on this trip with us will be on that SW flight I'll be meeting up with them down at the ME since we get in I think within 10 minutes of each other. I'm so ready to get out of here!!

Nice, I love Coronado! Hubs and I stayed there on our trip in Nov 2011 (got engaged on that trip ) and loved it!!

I hear you loud and clear on being ready to get out of here!! This city can be so stressful, and a vacation at Disney is exactly the cure!

If I see you around I'll be sure to say hi!

 

[longhorns2]

Joan! NO!!!!!

I got sick before Princess and took this stuff http://www.oscillo.com/ You can find it in a drug store OTC. HUGE HUGE improvement the next day. Might be worth trying!

Feel better soon!

 

[Danhockey04]

I've been out the last few days being ill, but I'm on the recovery now, feeling much better. Hope the same to everyone else, and those not sick, keep healthy. Only a few more days to go.

 

[TXAng]

I am at Pop! Your costume is super cute

I'm at Pop, too! Cute costume!

Cool! What time are y'all planning to hit the bus line? I'm going to try to be out there by 3 or 3:15.

Thought I'd share my Rapunzel costume with y'all. I played around a LOT with my sewing machine but I think it works. I'm still toying with whether or not I'll be able to bring Pascal.

LOVE it! You did a great job.

Oh NO! I hope it passes super quickly!

We head out tomorrow. I suppose I should consider actually packing instead of just piling stuff on top of the suitcase?

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that everyone can make it down to Florida without this giant storm messing up their travel!

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

Oh No Joan. Sending much pixie dust to you. I hope you are better quick.
My DD had it for about 40 hours my other DD had it for 8 hours.

Star Trek? My first thought was Q from James Bond.
