Desperately waiting for revised hours .... need to know whether to change my DHS ADR!!

Morning!! It's cold and smells like snow. On my way into the office. Most likely being sent home at some point due to the storm. I need to stop for soda and seltzer on the way home.

Looking forward to the weekend, when I can start packing the stuff I don't need. Also going to the Disney Outlet.

At this moment though I could use a few more hours of sleep. The election kept me up late.

I thought I was seeing either a little snow mixed with the rain this morning, but I'm not 100% sure.

We lost power for a few seconds a few times this morning, but haven't lost it completely yet <fingers crossed>. It's just so darn cold outside and it's not even officially winter yet until next month

I would love to start packing this weekend. But can't just yet since we are using everything that we need to pack. We are going to Tanger Outlet in Riverhead on Saturday to get DS another polo (his other brand new one was ruined by another kid ) DH also has to get a new pair of pants and/or jeans. He's losing weight and now has to get a size smaller

Totally! My Dad always told me that first, I was a citizen of the World (not Disney lol)

Can I be a citizen of both?!?

Ummm...why are we waiting for this???

 

[cybrkitn]

So I as excited to get Mickey Mail yesterday!!! But weirdly, it was for the back half of our split stay with the DME return trip. I have not gotten the first half yet.

For Mickey Mail! I noticed a discount in there for the spas . I've mentioned it to DH, but I don't know if we will be able to swing it. If so, DS will go to his Uncle and Grandma's room while DH and I go to the spa. I would love for my mom to go, but I haven't been able to convince her to go to one with me.

FWIW, Accuweather is now showing the forecast for Dec 1.

http://www.accuweather.com/en/us/orlando-fl/32801/december-weather/328169?monyr=12/1/2012

No snow in Disney world.

26 Days!!!

I'd prefer my arrival day to be a little warmer, but I will take it. There's sure to be snow or really cold temps here in MN so 69 will be just fine. I am glad I did not purchase the waterparks and more tickets...too cold for a water park to me.

Hi everyone!

23 DAYS FOR US!!!

We're buying our park hoppers tonight (yea, should've done that two nights ago) but for sure this evening...

Love that new Christmas cupcake being sold - can't wait to try one! Must add to list of already many, many snacks to try!

Will buy some jeans this weekend for our trip (I've lost 15lbs since mid-August, so really looking forward to buying a smaller size)!

I've completely given up on the Dessert party... after days of multiple searching, no reservations to be had... oh well, didn't need all those amazingly scrumptious desserts anyway...

Might schedule the sleigh ride at Fort Wilderness lodge...

There are just so many things I want to do... we'll be back next Christmas with our kiddos so trying to get romantic grown-up things done now! (Insert The Little Mermaid, Kiss the Girl song here)...

oh, and I may have mentioned to DBF that WDW and Cinderella's Castle is the #1 proposal place in the US...

LOL, our trip will be here soooo soon!

Josh tweeted lots of Christmas decorations going up yesterday.

Also this: Hard to believe Disney actually put out a helpful document outlining holiday stuff at the theme parks: http://image.passholder.disneyparks.../m/1/WDW+Holiday+Calendar_download_121105.pdf

Thanks for the link! Just printed it out to add it to my Disney accordian file.

 

[WedgieSock]

Ummm...why are we waiting for this???

If they extend opening hours at DHS then there will be a second showing of Fantasmic at 8pm - at the moment I have my schedule sorted around a 6.30 showing with dinner after, I would rather have dinner earlier and see the 8pm showing

LOOOOVE MOPS! Helped me survived the preschool years. Now that we are in the TWEEN almost TEEN stage, I just need a drinking group. Or rewind back to preschool.

Eating my lunch while checking the Dis and nearly choked on my sandwich from laughing so hard!

It would be great if this forecast holds. I can do low 70s as the high if the low temp is mid-50s. Though warmer would be great too

Big expected change. Couple of days ago for Nov 28 it said 80/65 now its saying 69/50 for Dec 1.

We were there last week of Nov last year and it was shorts weather. Back in Orlando Christmas day, shorts weather.

I hope it is again!!! I was going to bring jacket for evenings but already bought shorts and t shirts for trip.

Accuweather's forcast always changes as you get closer to the date. So what we see now, will most probably change. I used to use the site a lot during the summer, but not anymore. For example, Accuweather would predict rain for the entire next week, but as we got closer, it would change to sunny.

But I would be happy if the temps were in the 70's. That's comfortable for me.

Tomorrow is DS's 5th birthday. My boss has a cookie business on the side, and I commissioned her to make Avengers cookies for his class treat. They turned out excellent:

Those are awesome! I love the Avengers!

Ahhh...ok, that would be good! Any particular day that you are thinking that they will do that?

Spa=wonderful! I have two separate visits! My friend canceled on me and I scheduled it to go alone!

 

[cybrkitn]

And that squirty cream stuff! I make hot chocolate, squirt a sensible amount of cream on top then drizzle with chocolate sauce

Wow, I'll be in Disney in a month

I have hot cocoa mix at home but no more whipped cream in the can.. maybe I should pick some up.

All this talk is making me want to put a Swiss Miss k-cup in the Keurig ! The question is: Do I really want to log it into My Fitness Pal

Good for you re: the smaller size...such a an accomplishment and feels so good to shop for them! Sounds like you have some great plans! I had to laugh about the castle and proposals because our kids are hinting to DBF that it would a great place to propose? We'll be at the MVMCP 12/11/12 which ends at 12am on 12/12/12...how crazy would that be??

Desperately waiting for revised hours .... need to know whether to change my DHS ADR!!

Hopefully we'll see this on Mon the 12th. If not it will be the 19th.

I have 2 pair from this past summer. I need a new denim skirt though and I'm coming up empty on that.

Not sure what size you wear but Lands End still has capris on their site.

I have a pair from the gap but they get all "saggy". I am having a "me" morning tomorrow and going to do some shopping after my hair cut and Drs appt... If not maybe I will check out there... I did however see some jeans at the Gap that looked like the could be cute rolled...
