OFFICIAL JULY 2009 THREAD!!! The wait is on!!!

[Itinkso]

If anyone else wants my brand-spankin-new DIS name tag, send me a PM that way we don't clog up this thread with requests.

Also, don't think I'm gonna release this to the general DIS population until after we return from our trip. So, until then it will be a July DISers exclusive!!

Hey Tom! Just used your link to find your Name Tag Thread! What a great service to all DISers! I'll PM you for another tag to use on my birthday! Keep up the great work; I didn't realize my countdown tag was based on your original design...

Yep. Pay me my royalties.

Mickeypath saw my design and asked if they could use it. I said "sure, why not".

 

[Amyz00]

One small change. I like this MUCH better.

That is awesome, Tom! I will PM you - I want one with my DISer name!

ohhh I wish we had Home Depot in England, then I could take part in this LGMH!! ... when i was shopping today I did actually stop and look at a lime green vest top (!).. but thinking i might buy a lime green bangle/bracelet and wear that each day... see if i spot any of you guys?!

Barbie

I will keep an eye out for you!

A lime Mickey Head for you to use if you desire. I copied it from the Magnet thread but I do not remember who to give credit. Lois

 

[flipflopmom]

Thanks for the mickey head! I may put them on my kids bags as "flipflopmom's DD's" I don't really want their names on them, cause I'm OCD like that! Can't you just see the looks we'd get!

When it gets closer, I may print out the ADR list, so even if you July'ers aren't at the same place we are, if I walk by I'll be on the lookout!

Was a meet ever set up? I've been checking the thread a couple of times a day, but I may have missed it somewhere!

Off to try to link my PTR to my sig - wish me luck!
Taryn - only 41 days, 6 hours, 50 minutes and 28 seconds to go!

 

[flipflopmom]

Okay, so I got the link on, how do I changed it from the shrow threa... yada yada to just words?

 

[NikkiLovesWDW!]

Okay first, copy the address of the page you want in your sig. Then you put the words that you want in you siggie, for example "trip report." Then highlight those words, click the button that lets you add a link (the earth with link under it, and past the address of the page your report is on.

Now the words you highlighted should be clickable and lead you to your TR!

My new swimsuit arrived in the mail today. Diet time. I started a new workout this morning called, "30 day Shred", and it totally kicked my butt. My goal is to get in shape by Disney. I have 55 days to lose 10-20 lbs. Wish me luck!

Good luck!!! You can do it!! I started my 2 mile a day jog yesterday. Usually I start once school gets out but I'm running out of time before the wedding/disney trip/cruise. Yesterday I went about 1/2 mile and today I made it about 1 and 1/2 miles. Luckily the park near my house is 2 miles around so even if I can't run the whole way, I have to at least walk it. Last year I was even up to going around twice for a 4 mile run but I don't see that happening this year!

Tomorrow is the first of June. Do you brides to be find that time is compressing?? By that I mean speeding up. You folks who don't have any big event before your trip probably feel that time slowing.. makeing your trip seem further away. Although I am not one of the brides to be, I am putting on my nephews Bar Mitzvah in just 21 days... and THEN.... just 2 days after that... I have Project Graudation for which I am the Decorations chair. This is a huge alcohol-free safe graduation party for the class of 2009 at Stone Bridge High school. It is heavy on themeing (If only I had imagineers on my team!!). Then... 5 days later.. ballet recital. At least my term on the board is ending. Yeah...!! I have so much to do in what is increasingly so little time. I have declared.... No DESSERT in JUNE!! (except for the Bar Mitzvah). I have just 4 1/2 pounds to go to reach WW GOAL!!! I last reach GOAL the day we left for our CRUISE!!! that went down faster than a 24hr floating buffet!! No dessert at home will taste as good as looking good at Disney!!

Okay I am sooo excited. Last weekend, my dh and I were married! It's a second marriage for both of us and we planned the big day in less than a month. It was rushed but turned out to be an awesome weekend. This past week realized that we never talked about what we were going to do for a honeymoon. At first we were talking about going to the Pocanos for a long weekend over 4th of July. But when I started pricing it I realized we could go to Disney for a little bit more...I finally convinced him Thursday to do it. I booked the air, hotel and we are doing the Dlx meal plan. I am sooooo excited. We went last September for free dining with my two daughters but this time will be just the two of us. Can't wait...yay...Disney in 33 days!

Plus we got all the dining reservations we wanted-including Le Cellier!

WoooHooo....thanks for letting me share!

 

[sabrecmc]

Congrats relcx4! How exciting.

I finally broke down this morning and instead of saying to myself, "Self, don't forget to take that to Disney!", I started my "going to Disney" bag. It is now full of little detergent packs, battery-powered fands, handysaks and wet ones. I'll just add little things to it over the next month that I don't want to forget. I know I'm weird, but it really made me happy to start some semi-official packing this morning! Hey, its close enough to June, right???!!!

You should start a spreadsheet...that's what I always do. Each person gets their own column and then there's one for toiletries and such. I never miss anything that way. Plus, I usually put my reservation numbers on the sheet too. That way everything is together.

Just about everyone on this thread is a mad planner!! Spreadsheets, lists.. we love em'. I use Microsoft OneNote. I have a packing list that has been used and edited dozens of times over the years. I have all my ADR's, activity confirmation #'s, all the ADR's from this board.. whose going and where etc. Congradulations relxc4 on your marriage!! Don't forget to post your ADR's so Nikki can add them to the master list.

Today I started using my extra bedroom for WDW packing area. We picked up credentials holders to place they Key to Kingdom card so everyone would have them visible during EMH. My DH's idea. Now if June would just fly by.
