Chris, you may need the laundry meet sooner, if that bottle breaks we checked all our goodies from F&W festival last year and all was good! we used bubble wrap and then those BIG zip lock bags to keep it all inside!!

now if those luggage handlers decide they need a drink ahead of time

Yay! For those checking in on September 29th, TODAY is your 45 day mark! Pay off those free dining packages! Get your call to CRO on! I paid off my trip this morning (nothing like the last minute, right?!?!) and I anxiously await the Disney Dollars that Chase will apply to my rewards balance! Tally Ho!

Ive been a naughty DIS'er.

I went to the Home Depot. I cleaned 'em out. I took all but one of their Lime Green Mickey heads...

Then I thought "We'll be there for Halloween, why not orange, black and purple as decoration for the window?"

So I cleared those out too. All but one. L L!!!

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

GOOD FOR YOU!!! i never leave one! haha!!!so you were good

On Monday I took half of the Mickey heads (about 13) from HD and cut them all! It took me 2 days to cut them all up!

Hey guys, I havent been around much lately, so I'm just checking in to see how everyone is.

I guess we have all reached the event horizon now (the 45 day mark) and there is no turning back. So, I guess Disney is just around the corner for us all.

Though, I have to admit, as strange as this may sound, I think I have completely lost all excitement for this upcoming trip. In the past few weeks, it was looking like we were not going to be able to go, and almost canceled our trip. I had completely resolved myself to not being able to go, and as of two days ago, I found out we would be able to go after all. Well, now, I just seem to be having a hard time transitioning myself from excited about Disney, to disappointed, to accepting the fact I wont be able to go, to now getting excited again about going.

Anyway, I am sure this will be only temporary. I downloaded a ton of park audio last night, and have been listening to the monorail loop over and over (I love the monorail).

And, I still have the DIS to get me fired up. What do you guys do to work towards getting excited about Disney?

Also, anyone ever use the Unofficial Guide? I generally only use Birnbaums guide, but the 2007 edition wont come out until Oct, and the UG is all ready out.

Wow, this is a long post. Sorry to ramble, but I've got missed time to make up for.

Getting a little bit more excited all ready.

I just joined the window decor thread yesterday and found this today. I will be at Pop from 9/20-9/27. It looks like I will probably miss the pool party being planned on 9/20 because it is after my bedtime, but I hope to see some Dis'ers while I am there! I will have my window decorated and will be wearing my lime green Mickey on my shirt or backpack. I met 3 people in Feb and hope to see more this time!

I didn't request a room--we will take potluck. I will ask at check in for something quiet but we aren't picky. Look for my window!

Remember planning for WDW is a marthon not a sprint, we all "hit the wall" when most of us over-plan Adrs, etc. 6 months out. The finish line is near, you'll get your "second wind" . Sorry for all the running jargon, the irony is the last time I ran a decent distance the first Bush was in office. Glad to hear things worked out alright, as for the UG, reports on other threads already say the 2007 is available now, at Barnes&Noble, Borders etc. and online at overstock.com and amazon.com. Until you get your new 2007 edition try www.touringplans.com to see all the updates.
