Hi Coach.....nice to see you post, glad you`re all doing ok


The cold evenings have well and truly arrived Had a beautiful couple of days.......but come 5-6pm.......you can really feel the change and I`m cold!!!

Had a good day at work today......only helping out my friend.....back next Tuesday and Thursday and that`s me done. It was lovely seeing some patients that I knew well and hadn`t seen them nearly 2 years.

Off to do some more trip report.......don`t like reading about it ending myself!!!

We just had a cold front come in and its marvelous!! It was 70 this morning, and its only supposed to get up to 86 today. If only it would stay like this year round, I'm not a big fan of 100+ temps everyday.

Coach, welcome back. When in May are you going?

donald, congrats on the new job and I hope they come through with that raise soon so you can plan another trip.

Carole, I hate to see your trip report ending too. I've really enjoyed reading along every day. Have you decided when your next trip will be?

I still don't have a trip planned so I have to enjoy everyone elses.

Today was my day off and I spent it doing yard work and laundry....I really need a vacation. I'm not eligilbe to get paid vacation until April since I just started a new job last April. It's highly tempting to just take the time off without pay so I can get my Orlando fix for the year. If only I didn't have those pesky monthly bills to consider.

... last few nights it's gotten down to around 2°C (for you non-metric peeps that's about 35°F) so in the morning we've had to turn on the furnace to get the chill out of the air

Picked up Bailey's ashes this afternoon ... it was a lot easier than I thought it would be

That's great news Melanie, I know you'll have an awesome time. Which resort are you staying at?

 

[minniejack]

congrats Mel--I started checking the site daily this week wondering what the heck they were doing...that was a nail biter.

So now that you are a gold club member, are you going to share some goodies with us??

good weekend all

Well we have decided that since this trip is already paid for we will go back next summer, and get another trip out of our AP. We will probably stay at the Portofino Bay resort since we have never stayed there. Since our tickets are paid for, and now the room is paid for, we will probably drive down, spend a couple of nights off site, and go to SeaWorld, then go to PBH, then home.

Oh I know right??? I was a total mess trying to figure out if we won. But the guy I spoke to yesterday that handled all the paperwork was SO NICE! I am waiting to hear back from them today to find out when I will get my prize information, and if we have to do any promos for the contest.

It was totally the disboards! LOL! I literally spent HOURS online asking everyone to vote daily. Since I am from this area I know a lot of people and they were all voting. It is COLD here too today! BRRRR...but we are expecting high 80's again next week.

Ya know...I don't even know what I get for being Loews Gold. I guess I should look that up eh? Bad news is that since they didn't tell me in time we didn't change our ressie over to RPR for this trip, and now the $139 room is gone. I will keep checking and hope it pops back up again! I would love to use that Gold status to get an upgrade!

 

[schumigirl]

Congratulations Melanie........that`s a fantastic thing to win......what a treat........Marvellous news

Thanks Vicki, well it may have to be July next year, as Kyle`s exams will be over. But he has to be around end of August for results and University placements......very tense time all round hoping he gets the grades he needs for the University of his choice. Would prefer Sept/Oct but not an option until Kyle decides to ditch us for some little blonde or brunette

He has written an email asking about the Universal International Student programme as that`s something he would love to do for a year, but not sure if it`s even going to be possible. Haven`t heard anything back yet, but he only sent email a few days ago.

Hope you can manage a few days away, although without pay.....that`s not ideal I know, but you could be doing with a trip away......go for it

carole - i never heard of that program. Do you have a link? my DS is interested in the DL one (figuring he could work on that japanese he's taking) but I know he'd jump @ an internship @ U.

not on a weekend in October...loews tightened up things this year re upgrades. Have heard reports that many of the weekday HHNs are off the table too.

even we platinum ones (has a certain ring to it ) are blacked out then and many other dates but we still get our $100 resort credit
fyi

We aren't going over a weekend this year. We arrive Monday and check out Friday. I doubt I see it come up again, so we will probably just stay at HRH.
