Single Parent Meets

[Bravegirls]

Sounds like your job is far more honorable than mine. Caring for those who are nearing the end of life's journey seems like a noble profession. Good for you!

Yours sounds more exciting though its a difficult job *** I get really attached to people quickly and I know some don't have long left. No one has died on me yet so fingers crossed they all live til they're 150! I've got loads of wee grannies now which is cool *** I don't have any grandparents left! So is it the same passenger u have or do they change? Take it it's only the fat cats who get to go in your wee plane? CEOs etc? I'm a company director so I should have my own plane n pilot eh?! I wish hahahaha!

If I do my job properly, it is not exciting at all.

I still have no idea what the word is... Lol, but it's ok.

Disboards doesn't like my made up words clearly! It's a three letter word short for 'because'!

I doubt that!

Got it. No worries.

Hey all! I'm travelling to WDW with my DS to celebrate his 8th birthday. We will be there from 12/29 to 1/7 and are staying at AOA. We would love to meet up with other moms/dads and kids just to have some company other than each other here and there. I'm sure I'll be craving a little adult conversation after a few days.

Single dad going with DD (14) this Oct 17-22. Staying at POP. Any other single parents going??

We're there the week before (during Norman's fall break). Taking DS7 and a friend from work is going on her first trip with her DS10!!

We'll be there October 9-14. Short one for us, but it's last minute, and we're already taking off a week in December to go down for the holidays.

It's great to see another Okie on here and so close too! Too bad we're gonna be there just a week apart! Too bad Moore and Norman can't have the same Fall breaks.

We're headed on our first Disney cruise on Spring Break next year. In fact, it's our first cruise ever!

Hi
I am cruising with my 12 year old son and 8 year old daughter on the Disney Fantasy on 9/15/12. Would love to find others on this cruise as well.

I think you guys started before we did, too. How weird that you have fall break after we do. How many days do you guys get? I'd love for us to go to year round like OKC and get a two week fall break!! Would work much better with my WDW plans.

How fun!! We still haven't taken the cruising leap. Thought about doing one out of Galveston since we're so much closer to that than Florida. You'll have to let me know how you guys like it!

 

[Trep72]

Yeah, we started a week before you.

We get three days total, but the first day is considered parent/teacher conference, then the next two are the official "Fall Break" days. We're coming home on that Monday after.

I looked into the cruises out of Galveston, but they ended up being more expensive, as they are only 7-day cruises. Since I'm taking the kiddo's BFF, I couldn't shell out that money for all 3 of us this time.

Looking for other single parents who would like to meet up, possibly share hotels etc. I have an 11 year old son and usually visit in late october and late april.

Sorry, new to this still figuring out how to reply within a post.

I have not completely booked my trip yet, but I think we may overlap a couple days. We are also staying at Pop end of Oct./beginning of Nov. I have taken my son (11) alone once before by myself (just a few days) when DH was too ill to go on planned trip. This will be my first trip as a single mom since DH passed away in April. Meeting up with someone even just for a meal at the hotel might take our mind off missing him. I also saw your post about another adult that cancelled. I know your dilemma, if it's 2 or 4 people, the cost is not much different. I thought about seeing if anyone wanted to go in on a hotel package. Staying in a hotel with a stranger though makes me a bit nervous.

I am actually not a parent (yet), but I have worked as a nanny for about 4 years. I was supposed to go to Disney with another family as a nanny over Thanksgiving, but they had to cancel, so I decided to go ahead and come by myself. If there are any single parents out there who can't handle some of the rides, or single dads who might need some help figuring out all the Princess stuff, I would be more than happy to meet up with you! I'll be staying at the Pop Century from October 10-16. I'm great with kids of all ages, and I'm pretty good at engaging in adult conversation as well
