Something About Nothing #3..........

[RVGal]

you are NOT bottom of the barrel guests. here is an idea. just my wack job idea because i had dunkins this afternoon and filled the brain up.
for their birthdays and whatever, instead of money or if folks dont know what to get them, how about WDW gift cards/ mickey money? that way, you could say, we go into ONE SHOP , and ONE shop only where you can spend your dollars? that way, they can have a treat while there.
and I bet they would be really accomadaint about a wheelchair or other means of transport of transport. have the doc do a letter saying special needs and maybe there is a discount even on getting around. just a couple of thoughts.

I'm going to talk with the neurologist on our next appointment and see what she says. If she wants to do a letter, we'll go from there. I'm sure my mom will give the boys some souvenir money. That's what Grandmom is for, right?

I miss you too! But I totally understand. Always remember we are here for you.

I know. I'm not going anywhere.

Yes you can & I agree that you should. Also I believe all the resorts have some free wheelchairs that you can check out for free for the duration of your trip, just like they have lifejackets to be checked our. I don’t know if you call and request one or if it is first come first serve.

I'll start checking in to that. I didn't even know it was an option.

While they have good ideas, Penny has a point. Tell them he feels uncomfortable in the wheelchair (and, let's face it, he "looks" okay...so, you'll get 'those' looks ) and you'd just like a double stroller instead. (Isn't it cheaper to rent double than wheels anyway? ) I'm sure they wouldn't give you a hard time if you tell them you (& Joshua) prefer a dble. stroller to wheels

I think we're going to get "looks" either way. Either the judgemental, "That child is too old to be in a stroller" ones... or the judgemental, "That child doesn't need a wheelchair" ones.

Mind you, I couldn't care less. Really. If somebody else has nothing better to do on their vacation than pay attention to what my family is doing, that is their problem. It'll all boil down to what works out the best for us, comfort wise and finacially. Even if we get the GAC or wheelchair, it wouldn't be the FOTL variety... just the "here's what's up" kind.

I responded to the second one.

I added my 2 cents on that on too. Go take a look...

You know what I really hate? When someone hits your car when you are in a restaurant and they don't have the decency to leave a note or bother to let anyone know.

That was one very expensive dinner we just had. Geesh.

oh damo, i am so sorry. that has to be very upsetting......
don't let this ruin your weekend..

By the way Mac/Todd/Jodie, did you hear that they are most likely probably not having the UTH tours this coming Oct??
[/FONT]

WHAT........ oh no...........i love that tour.
i have been taking the day tour since the first year it started when it was $10


now i'm sad.........



but, thanks for the heads up bonny.
i'd rather hear it from a homie than read about it later on a website.
it kind of helps to soften the blow.

Today was the first full day I had the a/c on at the house. It was 87 today and humid. Tomorrow is more of the same with possible strong t-storms in the afternoon.

Ah can't wait for the warm humid weather ... only 33 days and counting

todd, it is cold not hot here.
our furnace is running.

We still have our furnace on here too ... it's 43F here and it's just after 6:00 pm

I've PM'd you the email I got ...

Hey homies!

Sorry I've been MIA for so long! I haven't been on since 3/21..... MAC sent me an e-mail to let me know she was worried about me. That was sweet! It makes me feel loved!
I've had a busy last few weeks. I don't think I posted after Monday the 17th. Zack's track shoes came in on Tuesday the 18th, but the meet was cancelled due to rain. The kids were on Spring Break the next week and then on Monday the 31st, he had his first and possibly the last track meet.....they only had 4 scheduled. Two got rained out and the last one, which was scheduled for later this month was cancelled for unknown reasons.

We are still planning our trip in June. I checked the rates for our trip again and they had lowered the APH rate to $189 per night ! I called and had it changed. I'll lose my Loews benefits, but I think the savings will be worth it.

I put my Trailblazer up for sale and I sold it yesterday. I have some money coming next Friday or Saturday for my downpayment on my next vehicle and I have to wait until then to get another one. When I dropped off the car with its new owner, my dad picked me up and let me use his car. I called the rental place from their house and found out the rates were about double what they were when DH hit the deer and I think it's because there was a HUGE hail storm (bigger than golf ball size) in Texarkana (the next larger town-31 miles from us where all the shopping and car dealers are) on Monday night and rental cars are hard to find right now. I was glad that I was at my parents house then because my parents agreed to let me use Dad's car until I get one. I love my mommy and daddy!

MAC, I hope you had a GREAT time in Hawaii!

Now...who has my Cliff Notes?

Hey Homies..........
It is almost anniversary time here!

on April 10, 2007, this thread was born.



i thought it would be kewl to go back and post on april 10 past quotes down memory lane here.

find something that touched you
find something that made you laugh or cry

locate when you first came on board............

throw in some of the things that made us bond so well.

it is all up to you.
no one has to quote or go back, just thought it would be fun to see how we all think one year later.


here are the links to the past 2 threads.
phamton was kind enough to provide them for us


Part 1: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1416196

Part 2: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1698593

The first thread was started 4/10/07

I added a link to the other threads in your first post on Part 3.



i'll repeat this post again during the week as not everyone reads every page when they are behind.

and newbies, join in on the fun.
find something you find funny or interesting.

no one is required to do this.
so don't feel pressured if you don't want to.

Happy to join! I'm going to Orlando for the 11th time this summer!! so excited!! Will get to stay at HRH for one night (we will be renting a villa as always....boo) as a birthday present from my parents. 19 years old now and still love going away with good ole mum and dad! very very very excited even though I've done most things in my 10 times being there! One thing different about this time is that my parents friends are coming and bringing their kids (2 and 5) so I can't wait to see their faces light up when they first see UO and IOA!!
