Welcome Back, Mousemommy! Can't wait to hear more about it!



KOOK, such a nice photo of your daughter! And that Lapu Lapu next to the orange bird pin is so happy! Glad to hear about Tokyo Dining. I can't tell you how many times we've had an ADR there (because I love sushi) and then we cancel it because the boys lobby for something else and we can't fit in all their favorites. So I sacrifice Tokyo for it. Our October trip is a bday gift to me from my husband (who said no more trips with the APs, and is making an exception for us to take they boys to MNSSHP.) He's encouraging me to book Tokyo for this trip as a result, but I'd have to cut San Angel Inn and the boys really want that (although we are going to SAI in January.) OK, I'm way OT now - need to post this on Amanda's ADR changing thread!




Yay, Dani!!!! I'm so excited for your trip and the live reports! August is slow for us here - baseball and theater are finished for the summer and swim team is wrapping up soon. So we'll enjoy our virtual trip to Poly with Dani! :)

Jen, hope you can get some rest (or more coffee!)

Pas, I always have problems with my reservations on the website. They show up, then they disappear. Sometimes I press "update" and they return. Sometimes they don't. I called once and the CM really didn't know why this happens to me all the time. I think your theory about too many changes is correct! Even though we usually don't do on-line check-in, I like to see them. And the boys like to look at the current page because (between Oct. and Jan.) it has BC, CR, Poly and BWI!

You're more than welcome to join in!

DO NOT GO BACK TO THIS PLACE...EVER. YOU DON'T NEED THAT.:sad2:

People on the internet are very cruel. I'm sure if they were in my situation they wouldn't feel the same way.

People can always say ballsy things when behind their big bad computers...:sad2:

Dealing with kids illnesses and being a working parent is tough...I hope everything gets straightened out for you. :hug:

That's very true. I'm sure they wouldn't say the same things if we spoke in person.

Everyone seems to be on the mend...but now my mom is sick. :sad2: She better keep her germs to herself!

I would just like to note that a ticker shall not grace my siggie until a choice has been made. :rolleyes1

Uh oh!
 
I keep having anxiety attacks that I'm going to have a heart attack in Disney and die. WTH is wrong with me?



Love ya sis. :hug:
Love you :hug:

IF you decide to have a heart attack at Disney......

only between 9-12th...when your big sis is near...cause I can totally save your life!!!!! :hug: So no worries about that, the Poly is the best medicine EVAH for all this crap :hug:

My take...(bear in mind I am no professional...and could possibly need one myself!;)) is that you have had such a stressful month, it might be hard for you to even contemplate relaxing and enjoying yourself. When stuff happens one thing after another, it makes me be on edge too. Take some deep breaths, you are not going to have a heart attack at Disney, you are going to have a wonderful time with your kiddos, and this is much deserved.
:thumbsup2

:rotfl: Glad I'm not the only one...and I think an ADR at Tokyo is well deserved for all mom does for her boys.....:hug:

I love my RC family. :grouphug: I was posting on another forum (not the DIS) and they told me I don't deserve my job and I'd be lucky if I even have one next month. Who says that to someone?! It isn't like I planned for both of my kids to get serious illnesses and then myself to get ill as well. These are things that are beyond my control. I couldn't believe some people could be so mean.
:headache:

You tell her Jen :mad: I am so glad that wasn't the Dis :crazy2:

Right................welcome back my friend :flower3:

Stay off that board!!! Sometimes the world can be a mean place .... stay here with your family where we are all kind and loving! :grouphug:

How dare they! That is just awful! You deserve your job! You are an amazing person. Don't ever go there again! :mad: :furious:
 
Dani - Online check in! :cool1: I agree with the others, do not return to that board. I'm so sorry you had to go through that. The interwebz can be scary place :sick:

pixarmom - I love hearing about all of your plans! Don't save it for the just ADR thread! :goodvibes

pas - my online ressies finally went poof on me again. I'm hoping not for good as I want to do OCI! I usually can get them back by doing my log out, then log back in, then update, then retrieve an old ressie, then retrieve a current ressie routine. :rotfl: Now even that isn't working :sad2: I just want to verify that they are both correct at this point. :confused3

kook - your DD is stunning!

chimo - love the new do! :thumbsup2 I only get my hair cut every 3 years and that is just for locks of love. I could use a "real style" one of these days. :rotfl:

MM - welcome back! Can't wait to hear more about your trip! :woohoo:

sjs - sending good thoughts for your DH! :goodvibes

Hi to everybody else! :flower3:

Taking DS for his follow up today. I'm assuming all is well as he looks great and is acting.... um like his typical self :rolleyes1
 
Hope everyone is having a fabulous day! Only 1 more day before the weekend! :dance3:

That's horrible! No need to go back to those boards. I don't understand why people feel the need to be so mean. Like you wanted your kids to be so sick? I mean, really?!? :mad:

There's an ADR changing thread too?? I definitely belong there!

Oh yes, indeed there is! We've actually been quiet for a little while now. In fact, I forgot to post some changes I've made! :headache: If you look towards the bottom of my signature, you'll see a link. :thumbsup2 Would love to have you come on over! :goodvibes
 
I just made my second change for the new thread. (Jeanette, don't ever accuse me of not ever giving you anything).

I just now got the reservation I've been trying to get for months.......drum roll, please! (Do it just like Beverly D'Angelo in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation):

Bay Lake Tower One Bedroom Lake View with the military 40% discount!

Just an FYI: I have always been told that once a room with a military discount is booked, even if it's later canceled, it will not go back into the discounted inventory. However, I knew this wasn't true and kept calling back periodically when I would see the villa in the rack rate inventory. For a while it wasn't even in the RR inventory, but just today, I saw it in the AP inventory and thought that it just might be available with the mil. rate. I called and indeed it was available:goodvibes. Now, I just have to figure out if 4 nights is enough before moving next door to WL/CL for 10. I just happened to inquire:rolleyes1, and the villa is indeed available beyond 4 nights:scratchin. What should I do?


kooksterDid I mention yesterday I told DH we may not do much park time..he grabbed his belly he was laughing so hard....IDK why he doesn't believe me :rotfl:

And is that your beautiful DD in that pic! WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your DH is one smart man and knows you at least as well as I do.

Yes, that is our one and only when she was 9 - I can't believe that was 4 years ago:sad2:
Kook: Wow... is that a supermodel in your picture???


Have a great day everyone. Very tired over here :worried:got home late from work, thunderstorms all night, kids in and out of our room all night. Youngest up early with a bad cough Ahhh well, now I am drinking lots of this :coffee: and things are looking up!

Jen
Oh, you're so sweet, Jenny. I think DD still has that pink umbrella somewhere.

I hope tonight is better than last night for you and the kids. Mom needs her rest::yes::

Kook Love the Lapu Lapu! I can't wait to indulge in a few....dozen. :rolleyes1
They're cheaper by the dozen, right?

kook your daughter is beautiful!!! princess:
You're too kind - thank you:flower3:

KOOK, what a beautiful daughter you have :flower3: AND, who is that we are seeing having an adult beverage with the orange bird pin?!!!


Updates anyone?
Awww, thank you, JC:hug:. Her mom is holding the fruity adult beverage and the pin says it all. DD and DH kept reminding me to wear it, but it didn't attract an RC - but in a few weeks it will:thumbsup2

Update? Why certainly! YC/CL is no more and BLT is booked! This will be our first villa - yeah for something different and with two bathrooms;)

I keep having anxiety attacks that I'm going to have a heart attack in Disney and die. WTH is wrong with me?
Nurse Jeanette: If Dani is having an anxiety attack, won't that keep her from having a heart attack? You can't have both at the same time, right?

KOOK, such a nice photo of your daughter! And that Lapu Lapu next to the orange bird pin is so happy! Glad to hear about Tokyo Dining. I can't tell you how many times we've had an ADR there (because I love sushi) and then we cancel it because the boys lobby for something else and we can't fit in all their favorites.

OK, I'm way OT now - need to post this on Amanda's ADR changing thread!
The Lapu Lapu is from last summer and the DD is from 2008. Make AND keep the TD ADR and ask to sit by the window when you check-in. Go ahead and cut SAI, you've been there many times and haven't been to TD - it's great!

kook - your DD is stunning!
Yes, I'm often stunned by what she says:rolleyes1. Like when I just made the switch from YC to BLT she said, (rather emphatically): "Do not change this no matter what, OK?" I can't wait to eat at The Wave's breakfast buffet again, so don't change anything!"
 
kook: Congrats on getting BLT with a military discount! Woo Hoo! That is awesome!!! :woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo:

If it's available for more than 4 nights, I would stay there as long as I could. But, that's just me. :goodvibes
 
KOOK, YAY, persistence pays off! You will LOVE BLT. We have stayed in a 1 bedroom twice and it is amazing when you have older children with you. My DDs have each slept on the pull out couch and did mind it at all. TWO full bathrooms :cool1: You also have a washer and dryer. We had lagoon view both times which we preferred. The MK view is great, but you have to look past the parking lot. We would sit on the balcony at night and enjoy the EWP. We also loved watching the large boats, including the ferries go to dock at night and come out early in the morning. No opinion on how long to stay, I think it depends on how long you want to spend CL at WL.

Jeanette, wish I could edit the first page, sorry, but we need to make another CHANGE for Kook
 
Kookalicious (yes I am thinking of new nicknames for you)

LOVE THE CHANGE :yay: Congrats :thumbsup2

(I also did the drumroll like Ellen did in the movie :lmao:)

sarah I updated the list! All good :flower3:

iheartthemouse Possibly a conspiracy against the RC family...:scratchin I have to call to get a confirmation..and when I punch in my number I get my special CMs who tell me all is well. Guess I'll just email IPO to reconfirm everything :upsidedow I want to do online check in though :sad:

amanda I'm glad you popped in so koh can visit your ADR thread :hug:

dani My wonderful sister :hug:

Thanks sis. I'm really thinking of canceling. Idk what to do.
 
Thanks sis. I'm really thinking of canceling. Idk what to do.

AWWWW!!! oh NO DANI! Please don't cancel, you've been needing this trip for a loooong time.....I pray things work out and you and your family get away for this much-needed trip :hug: :beach:

Thanks my friends for the sweet words about the new "do" :grouphug: I guess I may keep going to her and see how it goes. :goodvibes

I heart mouse, what a sweet gesture for locks of love :thumbsup2 I always wanted to do that, but my hair never grows fast enough, or long enough. :p
What a sweet thing for you to do!
 
Yes. I might be getting fired.

Seriously??? I mean, I know of all the issues you were having....but I guess I need to re read some back posts....has your boss actually said this?? Do you work in a bank? Can you easily find a new job??

I'm so sorry you are dealing with this.
:hug:
