****OFFICIAL August, 2012 (PART 2)****

I'm trying to lose a few pounds, too. I have more than a few to lose, but I'd be happy with 8-10lbs by then. Trying to stick to an attainable goal. that'd be 2lbs per week. I am on week 5 of the Couch to 5K program and finally am starting to feel like it's making a difference. I also try to walk for an hour on the other days when I don't do the Couch to 5K.


I thought LeCellier already was 2 credits?

Just a head's up to everyone since we've talked about shoes so much- woot.com has TEVA mush flip flops on sale for $11! I'm just ordered another pair (can never have too many flip flops!) http://sport.woot.com/plus/teva-womens-sandals :thumbsup2

Awesome that you are doing couch to 5K! I am going to start it this week- I have always been a runner but have not run in over a year and need to get back into it! I want to work up to a Disney half-marathon, just to give me an excuse to go.

I also thought LeCellier was 2 credits already...but just saw your post and did not know lunch was not! Awesome on the ADR , I keep trying! Would love to eat there.
 
I know Ive seen them -when Im NOT looking for them- but for the life of me I cant find any Disney window clings. I plan on decorating (just a little) our resort window/door. Specifically Im looking for Princess and the Frog clings for our room at POR and the Fab Five for Pop. Ive never decorated before-I just want to try it once. Anyone seen any clings anywhere at a dept store??? I dont have a Disney store around here anymore.

I have never decorated before either but I really want to. I love that your are looking for different themes for different resorts. Good luck!
 
To celebrate I just added another ADR to our itinerary. I added Akershus for breakfast on 9/1 at 9:40am to our already existing ADR's. We have never eaten there before and I am really looking forward to it after reading some great reviews about breakfast there. I just love the princesses and character dining in general!

I also ordered Photopass+ since my DS is joining my DD and I this year. I spent a small fortune on Photopass pictures last year between Chef Mickey's, rides and the pics scattered around the parks. I figured we could get some great pictures of the three of us together this year.

Here is one of my DD and I on Expedition Everest last year.....

I love this picture!! I am thinking we are going to do photopass plus too. Then I won't have to stress about leaving any great pictures behind. I plan to take advantage and ask the photographers to do the magic photos. I've always regretted not buying one from AK that they had my girls holding Simba. The ride pictures are always a great source of happiness for me too! :)
 
Hi Aug 2012 Friends!

We depart on Aug 26 (Sun). When should I expect my beloved "Mickey Mail" with all our information? So excited!

Welcome! If you have a package, I would expect Mickey Mail this week! I got mine yesterday and we check in on the 25th. (Actually the 22nd, but we have a room only res for three days.)

Awww, I wish they would make pics available longer! I always debate buying certain pics, and then 30 days goes by and I can't get them. :(

This may be a really dumb question but what is in your Mickey mail? I know there will be stuff for the Magical Express (we are only taking on the way home as we are staying overnight near the airport one night before going to the Poly.) Just wondering, Thanks!
 
BOO it says I need a US shipping address :(

How long would it take to get from the US to Canada? If you were to order and send to one of us, then we would then have to send it to Canada? Just don't know timewise if it was feasible.
 
Today is not my day. I'm sure we all have them. Woke up tired and things are just going poorly. Nothing major and I count my lucky stars for that.. but boy am I wishing vacation would get here quick:rolleyes1

I am at 29 days today:cool1:
There's something to be excited about.

Maybe I'll pull out the suitcases today or start making packing lists to cheer up:)

I just ordered these-thx for the heads-ups. BUT, I ordered 2 pairs at $25 ea. a couple weeks ago!!:headache: So I have the $11 ones on the way, but man, if I would have just waited.....
 
Even though I had started a small pile in my room of things to take with us, DH and the girls decided to get on the bandwagon last night and add to the pile. We pulled out our backpack for the parks and the canvas bag we will be using for the waterparks. We then gave the girls the autograph books and pens that we had bought them, and they put those in the pile too (bonus item, as I was cleaning out my closet I had found 2 unused, unopened autograph books from last year that I had forgotten that I had bought, so those went in the pile too since we always seem to buy a second autograph book while at the resort). The small itty bitty pile I had has really grown. Tonight we are going to Kohls because DH and I need a new pair of gym shoes and there is a nice sale on them that ends today, plus I have a coupon for 20% off the entire purchase :goodvibes. We have 34 days to go :banana:.

Don't be sad, Pigletto! I had been like that for a good 3 weeks but this morning I woke up and felt so much better. Don't know why or what triggered it. The humidity is lower today here and there's a nice breeze coming in my window at work. (Although I am NOT supposed to have my window open!) So, cheer up! And I definitely agree with making packing lists and pulling out the suitcases! I've been doing a little packing here and there. :hug:

:hug: Thank you.

I woke up exhausted. I walked into the bathroom and apparently someone had locked the cats out of the litter (it's in a large storage closet in the bathroom) so the poor thing peed outside the door. I of course stepped in it.:sick:

And things just keep progressing in that manner. Some family drama I didn't want or need etc.
I think I need to just not answer the phone and stay inside and start over tomorrow.:rotfl:

Thanks so much! I'm sure you'll hear me squeal with excitement when it arrives! :rotfl:

I forgot to say I'm glad you are feeling better! 3 weeks is a long time to be sad. Enjoy that breeze.. because there will be none of that at Disney in August:rotfl:

The heat in Disney ---- Oh, don't I know it!!! I also had stress in the family, then worrying about where to board the dog, worrying about money, worrying about work things.....ugh, just everything! :furious: Again, I don't know why today is a better day, but it is. Thanks for the good thoughts!
