September Check In

[Tink91]

Five days! Yikes. I should probably start packing!!

7 days for me, maybe I should aswell. Any recommendations?!

 

[Escape2Disney]

Glad you'll be at Gibson Girl, FireFox! I'll be there (unless something goofy happens at the conference). I'll be in a blue scooter and will probably have my service dog with me.

I am up for a meet, I will be there on the 9th,11th,14th,15th,16th

Just reading over the possible meet ups, count me in for the tower of terror??

I'm getting you added for the TOT meet up. We'll still be there on the 9th and the 11th so RiverLou and I may be able to do another meet up if you are interested.

Just a suggestion for everyone who is doing this, but try and get in touch with the other DIS'ers through a PM (private message) if you can so you can all make sure everyone is still game, and to coordinate how you'll recognize each other

and....whats with the LGMH i want one!! Why is everyone making them, is it so everyone knows your a DISer?

That's exactly what they are, a way to distinguish ourselves to other DIS'ers at the parks. They are these lime green paint chips from Home Depot that we use to make little tags. But you're in Australia, right? Don't think we'd have the time to send you any of the paint chips, although I do have a .jpg if you'd like me to email one to you to use as a template. Or if you wanted to meet up on Wednesday morning sometime (the 9th) I can make you one and bring it for you. BTW, they stand for Lime Green Mickey Head.

Here's the photo that I posted of my old LMGH again:

Hi

Please add us. We will be there 9/20 to 9/26! We will be at the DLH.

I will be updateing the list in just a minute So excited for you to be going!

Five days! Yikes. I should probably start packing!!

I can't believe that I haven't started packing yet either! It's so close I can taste it! We'll all actually be there next week.

7 days for me, maybe I should aswell. Any recommendations?!

Paint chips are just swatches really so you can take the paint color home to get a visual. Like I said, I have a JPEG image I can send you if you'd like to just print it out. Just let me know and send me your email address.

I have to remember to go by Home Depot tomorrow to pick myself up some more so I can make my new ones at RiverLou's house tomorrow while we go over last minute planning.

Oh, and YAY Target - That's where I work

 

[Tink91]

Oh really??!

We have paper paint samples here

If you could send me one over an email that would be great!!!
I will PM you now

 

[Belle Ella]

They are kind of papery, but more like cardstock in general. The Disney paint ones are really flimsy and papery if you carefully peel them off the backing which is more of the cardstock stuff. The cool thing about these is that they are already in the shape of a mickey mouse head.

YAY for Target, we are going there the day we arrive as well. I LOVE Target

Its so funny, we are flying over from Australia and the first thing we do is TARGET

 

[Escape2Disney]

It looks like I have to opt out of the Carnation Cafe brunch on Thursday... I didn't know family members made other arrangements for us. All of the others I signed up for I should be able to attend!

How many people do we have for the Tower of Terror meet now? My husband and I are pretty easy to spot, we have quite a few tattoos LOL
I have a big Tinkerbell tattoo on my right forearm, and he has a sleepy and dopey tattoo on his left forearm Plus we both have our LGMH's. YAY, I can't wait!

Including your husband, I think it's a total of 4 for sure. I've got everyone added who mentioned they were interested. The only unsure that I know of is LavenderPeach, who wasn't a guarantee for being in the parks that day.

So I'm over at my friends house (RiverLou here on DIS who is going with me) and we're getting ready - right now making new LGMH's!!

5 days - 3.5 sleeps!!

 

[Tink91]

My mum will be there for the tower of terror meet, it seems like we are the only Aussies there so we will be easy to spot hahaha. I will make a LGMH and wear it around my bag ! I will most likely be wearing a Disney shirt

I had better or else I'm going to die during the drive and day #1. I have to work overnight on Saturday into Sunday so I have a lot to catch up on.

But WOOOOOOOOO!

I am jealous!! On the other hand today was my last class. Now I just have 3 more shifts of work.

We're all almost there - this is so exciting!!

BTW, I'm talking with RiverLou, did you want to do a brief meet up on the 9th at the Haunted Mansion? We'll for sure be in that area since it's the last day before it goes buh-bye for the overlay.

5 more shifts for me, but 2 are just 6.5 hours (need the extra prep time for packing and such), but I hope they go fast! May everyone have a speedy final week!!
