Our little thread of BIG Resort changes*OLD THREAD link on last pg. to new thread!

I am sitting here, very depressed about my cancelled trip. I didn't cancel it through Disney yet, and signed into MDE tonight and saw we would have had Magic Bands and was able to play with the FP+...it's so much fun! All of my clients that are participating in FP+ have their own MDE account so I haven't been able to access it and play with it. I'm so bummed! I think I am going to crunch numbers tonight and try to get a realistic idea of what Easter would cost me. I would stay at Pop for Easter week since it would be cheaper, and a deluxe for the second week. I am longing for Disney something FIERCE lately. I guess it's all the quotes I've been sending out and trips I've been booking for other people. :rotfl:
 
Wookie, hoping you get a reply soon on your order. I'll be ticked too. Please don't let it get to you! You need to concentrate on healing that foot. :hug:

She did finally get back to me. If I understand what happened correctly, with the USPS, she used my Justin address. When she logged back into Paypal to mark the item as having been sent, Paypal showed the address they had at the time of the order, which was the Keller address. She was even kind enough to send me a picture of the shipping receipt. I'll feel better once I receive them, just because that's the kind of worrier I am.

I'm so sorry. :hug: I wish I could transport you to WDW right now.

My nephew's birthday (the one I got into a fight with his mother) is today (August 28th). We went over tonight for cake and it was actually not as awkward. I guess it just needs some time. The DH fell asleep sitting up on their couch and since it's Wednesday, of course Duck Dynasty was on the tv. Well as soon as the laundry gets done in the washer I am off to bed. We are having to use an old style top loading washer with the agitator in the middle while we wait for parts for our front loader. I miss our front loader!! The laundry I did tonight could have been done in one load in it, but in this thing it took two loads.

You are so sweet. :lovestruc

I have a top loader. I had a front loader and my clothes used to come out SO wrinkled in it. It was always a nightmare. I don't know if it was just the model or what but I hated that thing. It always had a funky smell too. I would run a bleach cycle every week but I just couldn't ditch that stench. :sick:
 
Here is what we accomplished today: new runners for all the DD's, 6 pairs of leggings (divided amongst all), already got jeans and ordered heaps of tops from Old Navy and Justice, new winter boots for DD9, and DD7, lots of socks, and a bag of school supplies. :teacher: Not too bad a start. :)

Off to work soon, day 4 of 7!!:rolleyes:

Jen huggin everyone!:grouphug:

That must have been one busy day! Bet it feels great to have it done.:goodvibes
 

Hi RCers,
Here's a little update on my continuing ticket problems. Basically I have old tickets with a couple of days left. They aren't reading right. I also have some new hoppers to add to them, they aren't showing up at all. IT figured out they could fix both problems by linking the tickets in a special way...but they can only do that if I'm at two magic band test resorts, instead of one. (AKL) My other option was to just wait till we get to WDW and try to get things fixed by the lobby concierge. I sure don't want to be using precious vacation time doing that unless I have to.
The other issue is that until this stuff is fixed, I can't make FP+ reservations.:eek: I'm sure they will be more flexible about fixing stuff after beta testing, but for right now, this is how they are handling things.
Yes, it's the wackiest reason to RC, but I did it. They had some Standard CL rooms at YC, so I booked. I called IT, and it's like the heavens opened. :rotfl:
Oh, you're at two test resorts? Let me check your reservation #'s. Great, we can help you! We'll get right on it! :banana:
Now I'm off to fix my ticker...and glue it in place. :rotfl2:

I've started putting some things aside, making my lists because we leave in 26 days!! :dance3::dance3:
 
HI friends! I miss all of you. I have been reading but with no time to multi-quote, just haven't replied at all. I have been posting some on the boards as I deal with the finishing touches on our trip.

I love all the pics of your kiddos - so fun!

I am still holding out hope for Magic Bands. I really want to try them! So far, WL and BWV haven't been added.

Ginny - I also have some ticket drama due to booking through Travelocity. Disney assures me it is fixable when I get there. We shall see!

Hi Lacey-Great to hear from you! That's good that they will fix your tickets when you arrive. It won't be too long till you're off on your vacation! :goodvibes
 
Hi ladies!
Well thought today they would release fall AP rates. Not so much. :sad:

Looking like CL is going to be out of reach for us this time around. Sad. :sad2: On the bright side I am staying up until midnight to do online checkin for the cruise! Yay!:cool1:

Ginny: I think that was a very valid reason to RC. In fact much more logical then any reasons I have used!:rotfl: And way to go with being on top of all that. What a logistical ticket nightmare!

lacey: Hi! Nice to hear from you! How are the kiddos? Back full swing at dance or not yet? I am really really hoping for us that BWI and BWV gets to try the magicbands and FP+ too! pixiedust:pixiedust:pixiedust:

Hi to all my ladies!

Hi my friends :)

Who would have thought in a matter of a week I'd have a pixie dust invitation and a real chance at perhaps being in our happy place in three months time?!!! Thanks to the kind invitation from our dear Janet and other sweet Disers ( Linda/GG, Linda/ Magic, Christine, Rosie, Jeanette, deena ) I may be joining them on the Granny Wannabe trip in Dec!!!!! Janet was kind enough to ask the ladies if they'd mind me taggin along, and they offered to let e join their group! The reason this may work is because thanks to our dear Linda and her offer to stay at her timeshare, my major expense will be my ticket and food. I have an airline credit I can use for when I had to cancel my DL Diva trip ( I will have to pay about $300 more because Orlando tickets are approx $750 from Edmonton in December) -- but the credit will sure help! It's a use it or lose it kind of situation.
I'd be leaving either the 3rd / so I could have all day of the 4th with everyone, and stay ONSITE the 4th ( don't know where yet. But we have some great RCers in this group, so I'm sure that'll be a fun decision :) -- I think it might be a perfect time to try a mod like POR royal room, since it will probably be my only opportunity to stay mod.....I hope we can narrow it down to somewhere we can get a good discount :)

The plans sound like a hoot, the company, I couldn't ask for better ladies to share some quality magical time with! Who would have thought I'd be planning a trip so quickly?! I really hope it all works out! Thanks again Janet and Linda for thinking of me! I can't wait to finally meet you all in person! And Deena, hopefully this time I have much more quality time to share with you rather than the rushed meet we had in October (as lovely as it was to meet you, Ginny and Lacey, it wasn't enough time!)

So to say I'm excited and hopeful and thankful for the opportunity.....words escape me right now! :)

Marie this is great news! Hope you can make it work! I think it would be a fab trip...and you sound like you need it. Am I allowed to say I am a tad jealous??:p I know I know we go in November but I would love to meet up with everyone. You will have a blast!:cheer2:

WOO HOO!! Congrats!! Y'all are going to have so much fun!! I am so excited for you!! I would love to do a girls weekend to WDW sometime.

Well it has finally happened. When I originally booked this trip, the countdown started out at over 200 days from an early to mid June trip. Now I can happily do the SINGLE DIGIT DANCE!!!:banana::dance3::dancer::dance3::banana:

The person I bought the appliques from did send me a picture confirming she sent it to the right address. When I try to look up the tracking number on USPS, it won't let me.

Last night Joey had his first JV football game. He had told me he would be running chains, since he missed some practice last week. The DH and I didn't go to the game since he wasn't going to play (and a certain aunt showed up early and I just wanted to snuggle a warm rice bag and watch Beauty and the Beast). Anyway, I was keeping track of the game of FB and when it got into the 4th quarter, the DH and I went to the high school to wait to pick Joey up. After every other parent, that was in line, picked up their child, the DH and I noticed how young the boys, that were still there, were. I looked it up on my cell phone and the game was almost over. Then the conversation went like...
Me...How long does it take to load up on the buses from the time the game ends?
DH...About 30 minutes.
Me....And how long does it take to drive from Grand Prairie to here.
DH....About one and a half hours....Wait a sec.....they are in Grand Prairie.
I didn't even look at the schedule since Joey said he would be running chains. If he was running chains, it would have had to be a home game. Luckily (since we leave the next morning), next week is a home game. Well I'm off to work. I'll check in when I can.
 
SO wanting some sort of vacation over Christmas or Spring Break...too bad Disney is out of the question for many reasons! :-/ I'd go for just a long weekend in my happy place with some friends (better yet just DH and me cuz I'd really like some time with him away from all of this)...hmmm...
 
Hi everyone! Well I thought with the start of school I would have more time to stay caught up, not so yet. Hopefully soon! I've been skimming when I can but don't have a chance to reply. But wanted let you all know I am thinking of you!

We will be up and out early tomorrow and I'll try to post to my PTR.

Have a great weekend my friends!!!

HUGS,
Melissa

Waiting on tenterhooks here. We received a call last night (recorded message) from the school that they're adding another 1st grade class because the existing four classes have too many students. They'll be calling and sending notes home with the students that have been chosen to fill this new class. They couldn't have seen this was happening before school had started? :confused3 Miss M has been mentioning a few kids' names from her class that she's gotten friendly with -- and most importantly, she seems to enjoy her teacher. Momma's not impressed.

Goodness, that wasn't exactly a great way to notify the parents, was it? Do you think maybe there were quite a few parents that waited till really late (the 1st day or so?) to register their children?

I hope things work out well for MissM. Smaller class sizes are a plus, but moving around is not always easiest. Fingers crossed that if she is in the new class, they have a really awesome teacher!
Keep us posted, k? We're thinking of you! :goodvibes

==============================
I'll be back to multi-quote later, but in the meantime, hugs to all the RC friends! :grouphug:
 
First and most important :grouphug: I am SO sorry I have been MIA. Between finals and my new classes and work and my new job...:faint:
So sorry, my kiddos head back to school next Friday which I am not sure if I am :cool1: or :sad:

I made a date change (no RC..still at WL CL) June 22nd to 29th. I just can't wait the whole summer I guess :rotfl2:

Wookie Yeah for single digits!! WOOHOO!!!

Candace AKL ??? I love AKL, nice choice!

Janet Thank you for always being so awesome

Mama!!! Enjoy WDW!!! pixiedust:

Sue I hope you are having a fab time!

Marie! That is awesome about the RC trip! I won't be going, but I will be there in spirit!!:goodvibes

Miss E Seriously, that stinks about Miss M. How unfair to the kids, but on a positive note, kids are resilient and in the end she will benefit from a smaller class...hang in there. She is a toughie, and she will have a great year..1st grade, I mean she is an old pro AND SO CUTE!!:hug:

Ginny and Lacey Those Magic bands confuse me...but I can't wait for a full report!!!

Sis Love the kiddo pics from down the shore...enjoy...and if you go April maybe I can figure something out to help you...like going too!!!;)

Krystal Best wishes and prayers for your MIL!

Sheila Ahhhh the Saga of Bob continues :hug:

jen Online check in...did I see that..or do I have my ladies confused!!

Melissa I am totally slacking on the DIS no worries, we will both get back soon...hey aren't you headed to WDW this weekend???

Sorry for everyone and everything I have missed or messed up..Off to shower and then to work..LOVE YOU RC PEEPS

Hi Lacey :wave: I hope you can get your ticket situation fixed easily and painlessly. I have had to spend hours on the phone with IT getting my stuff booked with cheaptickets fixed in MDE:sick: The one guy I spoke with was like "I'm sorry to be blunt, but what the HECK have you been doing to your MDE? I see you have 63 phone numbers attached to your account and they are all the same!" What??? I have no idea what I did... maybe it adds a new phone number in every time I RC. :rotfl2:

Hi ladies!
Well thought today they would release fall AP rates. Not so much.

Looking like CL is going to be out of reach for us this time around. Sad. On the bright side I am staying up until midnight to do online checkin for the cruise! Yay!

Hi to all my ladies!

Jen

Still keeping my finges crossed for a great AP rate for you. Don't worry about CL though. It's nice, but it is just the cherry on top. You will have an amazing time wither way. :cool1:

Same here Melissa :hug: Where does all the time go???? :sad2: I got lucky today and DD is napping, but that is a rarity. :headache:

Try to keep it together until you find out what's up. Maybe it will be a blessing. :idea: (says the Momma who would be freaking the freak out if this was happening to my kids :scared1: :rolleyes1)

I'll keep you and Miss M in my thoughts for a smooth transition :hug:

---------

So, I just realized that my trip is booked over the kiddos school Halloween parties and our local Trick or Treat night. :eek: I wasn't planning on doing MNSSHP because of bad memories of our last one*, but I think I have to bite the bullet and do it. Now I have to do some FP+ rearranging. Anyone else think that system is super annoying? My goodness, the steps needed to change your plans.... :badpc:

*Don't worry my bad time was just due to a very bad guest. I better tell the story so I don't worry anybody about the party. :flower3:

So, we went and sat on planter over in Liberty Square at about 7:15 to wait for the 8pm parade. 8pm comes and it starts to thunder and lightning. :headache: Parade delayed for 30 min. No big deal, but now more and more people are trying to crowd into our space. Now the parade is delayed again and my oldest DS (8 at the time) stood up to stretch his legs.

At this time a grown women decides to bump him out of the way and steal his seat! :scared1: I said excuse me, that is my son's seat. We have been waiting here for almost 2 hours now, can you please get up. "Nope!" she says. "My butt is here, this is MY seat now" OMG. So I squish over closer to her and have my DS squish between me and one of my other kids. I have my 8 month old DD sleeping on my shoulder and the lady keeps bumping into her. DH is trying to flag down a CM but can't find anyone. I'm afraid to have him leave me alone with my 4 kids and this crazy lady.

The parade finally starts and the lady's husband now comes over and stands in the planter behind his wife and proceeds to ignore the parade but shoot flash pictures in my sleeping DD's face the whole time. I have never seen my DH so close to hitting someone. I seriously would have left but there was no where to go. The parade was going by and I wasn't climbing through the planter with 4 kids. :sick: After the parade was done we high tailed it out of there, hit a few TOT spots and then left because we were all too mentally exhausted to enjoy it.

I know this could happen anywhere, but I can't help but have this negative association with MNSSHP (and parades) because of it. We have not done one parade since then. I guess I have MNSSHP/Parade PTSD. :rotfl2: Anyhoo. I know it won't happen again and we will have a blast, so yay for the party (I think)! :cool1: :scared:

Oh geez, I feel like I've been typing forver and it's almost DS10's bus time already. Gotta run. Enjoy the long weekend girls! :goodvibes
