Sep. 7, 2015 on the Dream

Look how focused on work we are all today. Either that or we're focused on our FE list. Not all of us are finished and packed yet Melissa

Joe, what's new in your world?

Not much, me and the kids have been working on our Door magnets. Wishing some type of tickets would go on sale to WDW before next Tuesday. That's as long as I can wait before I have to buy something. How is everything coming along with you?

I'm working on a few extras for the new people but have set a limit ... Today I am rearranging my packing list ... Oh the stuff I could really be doing!!!

I have something that I custom designed that I received a bunch of extras half off. I'm going to use them to pixie dust the late comers and perhaps those on Voldemort that are not on here. I don't consider it a gift though. More like a "hi"!

I have my packing list ready and all the girls' Disney shirts and swimsuits packed in their carry ons. Their carry ons, pirate costumes, and princess dresses are all together. Trying to keep organized, but I am not at spreadsheet levels yet!

I think things are slowing piecing together. I feel much better now that list are being finalized. I'm excited to finish all those up and know I'm set!

I'm slightly frustrated about my actual FE. I searched high and low, got lots of feedback from people on who to make it, etc. Finally decided on who I'd buy it from. We chatted several times on dinglehopper and now she's not responding to me. It's been over a week now. I haven't paid her or officially ordered anything. I don't want to bug her, but need to know if she wants to make it or not. Maybe I'll just make my own with the Walmart nursery organizer thing. I picked the lady because she could embroider a golf Pluto for DH and then Marie for Lyla. It's not the end of the world.

Speaking of the end of the world. I need to stop eating between now and the cruise or my buttons are going to put someone's eye out when they pop off.

15 more minutes and then oh wait, I just said I have to stop eating

I'm so focused on September that I didn't even plan/ pack right for are yearly visit to family! We are in CO visiting family for 4 weeks and I wasn't even close to being ready. Stephen had to mail us a box of stuff I forgot and I keeping finding new things forgotten. My sister was even questioning what the deal was. I was so on the ball last year but all I can think of is what do I need to do for Disney?

I did bring my fabric for the FE so I could work on it here

I'm still up in the air and I know I have to make up my mind about our FE. I'm one of those people that wants to do it themselves and I can see it and what it looks like but getting it to come like I see it is a different ball game. I wanted one with embroidered characters on it too and I know all I could do is the iron on patch. I want it to look nice and the wife says make it it's cheaper. Who will win this one? Don't worry about your weight everyone here has family's we all served our time we can look like we want with no cares! Especially with all the food and deserts we'll be eating on the ship. Plus your a runner aren't you?

We wont need any clothes because its going to be 100 degrees outside and that's if your standing still well maybe a bandana to stop the sweat. Ok I guess we will for the dinners and shows. Dang I was hoping for more room for FE gifts.

Remember sweets some of us are Flying and don't want to pay an extra $40 for an extra suite case. I think I'm going to mail mine to our Disney Resort with all the Fe gifts and Halloween decorations that's more than 1 extra suite case heck that might take a car... Maybe I need to scale back a little U think they will let me bring my smoke machine and casket?? remote controlled spiders?? I don't think a tape of screaming people would be appropriate coming from inside the room would it?? you know with chain saw sounds and stuff??

Is there a place to find out which characters will be on our cruise?

 

[sillecruisers]

You guys are packed already? I'm over here like

I think we are buying our FE on etsy. Two sellers have made my final cut. Now just to decide between them. It takes a month to get so I guess we'd better decide soon.

I know, right?!?! I thought I was organized until I saw that there are people packing already!!

What two etsy sellers are you looking at for your fish extender? I got mine with iluvdisney and it turned out so fabulous. Even better than I expected, and seems super sturdy......she does something to it that reinforces the entire thing, not just the pockets. We plan on doing many cruises from here on out, and I don't think that I will ever have to buy another!

 

[sillecruisers]

I'm looking at this one: https://www.etsy.com/listing/119487248/5-pocket-fish-extender-for-disney-cruise and also this shop https://www.etsy.com/shop/DoodadsWithCharacter. I will check out the shop you got yours from too, thanks!

 

[sillecruisers]

Amber can you link me up to that shop? I can't find it on etsy. I found a user by that name but no shop.

I'm right there with you trying to figure out if I'm making or buying our FE

 

[Carpetto]

So after all my whining about the FE, guess who I had a message from. Yep, I'm having mine made. One less thing to have to think about.

I love the stuff on Bullfrogs Butterflies. I almost ordered from there myself, but something kept drawing me to the one I ordered. I went back and forth for months before deciding!
