HI DVC friends - looks like our thread may not be coming back so we need a new home to keep up with one another.

How is everyone?

Not so good here. Went to the doctor this morning and found out I have "Walking Pneumonia." My temp is around 101 and I feel crummy overall. Came home from the pharmacy with an antibiotic, some cough syrup and an inhaler. (never used one of those before) Used all three and laid down for a nap. Feeling somewhat rested now, but still feel hot.

Julie, thanks for starting this up for us!

We have a new home!! I've missed checking in with everyone.

Mary, sorry you are under the weather. I needed an inhaler when I had the flu a couple years back. It does help some. I hope you are feeling better really soon.



I hope everyone else finds us!

I found you! Thanks Julie for starting the new thread. It's nice to keep in touch with our cruise friends.

Mary, so sorry to hear you are so sick. I hope you are on the road to recovery quickly. Take Care!

Thanks for starting the new thread, Julie!! I'm glad to be back!!!

Mary - I sure hope that you're feeling better soon!!! Get lots of rest (if at all possible)!!!

 

[crzy4dals]

YEAHHHHH

I feel so much better now. A new place to call home - I like that Cindy!

Mary - Sorry to hear you are under the weather ... I have been fighting a bug for a month now but now I am out of "extra" anti biotics and will see if I beat the bug for good.

Gail - congrats on your new endeavor - exciting.

Julie - we need to see updates on the baby bump!

Off to finish my 2 books... pictures have printed and they are not going to cut and jump in by themselves.

Back later

 

[Diana Lyn]

Found you guys!

Mary, hope you feel better soon.

Not much new here---except we're cruising in less than two weeks now!! It's just not the same without you guys, but I'm sure we'll have fun!

Diana, I'm sure I won't have to twist your arm to have a konk kooler or three for me while your at CC.

Two weeks, it's coming fast now.


We are back to the deep freeze in our neck of the woods. Our windchill this morning is -16 It's probably headed towards Michigan now, so barrel down those hatches. I would venture to guess that Steve & Coleen had it much worse that we did up here - we had warning all day yesterday that didn't amount to much. Looks like the kids will be having school today -- much to their disappointment. Not that they have room to complain, it's a scheduled half day anyway.

Walker started playing hockey a couple weeks back. Now it seems that every free moment we have is spent on the ice. Even being indoors, it's like a freezer in there. I'm sure if he continues, come July, I'll appreciate the temp inside the arena.

Our winds started last night about 10 or so. All night long I waited to see if any house parts were going to fly past the window. I think the wind chill here is only -9, so we have a heat wave compared to Chicago! No snow though. I guess the next batch of snow is expected in Thursday night.

Diana, Two weeks until cruising - I would be excited too! I'm sure you'll have a great time even without us. I would tell you to have a KK for me too, but I'm sure you'll have enough on your own

 

[MaryJ]

I wish I was going cruising in two weeks! I know a day at CC would lick this pneumonia for sure! Have a great time Diana!

I am feeling some better today. Actually got a little sleep last night. Here's hoping I'm on the road to recovery! I told Ken I feel absolutely decadent today...I would ordinarily be at work by now, but I'm still at home in my PJ's!

 

[chipscinderelly]

Mary - glad to hear you are feeling better!

Baby news is all good here - we have a big level II ultrasound on Friday and a bunch of OB appts so we can make sure all is well with the baby. I'm actually starting to feel better... luckily for me Karen lit a candle on the full moon and I think it worked!!! I asked her to light another one for heartburn in hopes that would go away next.

I wish we were cruising in 2 weeks... in fact I need to change my siggy since we can't do the repo this year.

Glad to see everyone checking in!

 

[tinkerbelle77]

Hey, I found you guys again!
Julie...Thanks for starting the new thread! Glad to hear all is well with the baby!
Mary, glad to hear your feeling a little better!
Cindy...Frigid is an understatement here! It was over 50 yesterday afternoon, and then last night it was -temps! insane!
Diana...I'll see you on the cruise! We leave a week from today, can't wait for the warmth!

Yea a new thread to call our own!!!

I know I have been kind of MIA lately. Well we are moved in (still unpacking) but we are in. We have been busy with painting and doing some furniture shopping. By spring I think we will have everthing pretty much in place, then we will start on the outside.

We had to paint Nick's room first thing since it was lavender with white polka dots (he wasn't keen with that). It's now 2 shades of blue since there was chair railing we did the bottom a darker blue then the top. This weekend we are pianting the dining room and maybe Nick's bathroom. Seems like it never ends!!!

Julie - Thanks for giving us a new home. I'm so glad things are going well with Baby Totten.

Mary - Bummer that you are under the weather. Follow doctors orders and get better soon!!!

Gail - Congrats on the new job! I hope you truly enjoy it!.

Cindy - Have fun at those hockey games. If you need to talk hockey you should talk to my Dad ha is a fan and plays once a week during the season!

Diana - you stink! No not really, I wish I was joining you on that cruise! And ditto what Cindy said!!

Sounds like you're moving right along with the new house Stacy. It's nice with it being winter you can concentrate on the inside.

We want to see pictures!

 

[cgcw]

Mary, I hope tomorrow has you feeling even better.

Julie, are those level II ultrasounds the ones where the babies skeleton is shown and all? We never had one with our boys, I don't think the technology was there even 8 years ago when I was pregnant with Walker (gosh was it 8 year already? Hey, now that I think about it, I think 8 years ago tonight I spent the night in the hospital because my blood pressure sky rocketed after sitting in the doctors office waiting room for 3 hours). I've seen them and they are amazing. Just think, Julie, you might be giving up the repo cruise this year, but life as you know it will be changing.....alot.

I'll have to talk to Karen about lighting a candle on the full moon. I wonder if it helps with job hunting, because if Gary doesn't get something soon, I'm going to be moving out. It's hard because it's not like I can go to work myself, my work comes here daily. And just to add to the fun, there has been a lot of stress in the daycare these days.

Tina, welcome back home. I suspect this will be our permanent home until it gets too big.

Stacy, good to hear your settling in. I'm not surprised that Nick's lavender bedroom was the first project. Have fun doing the rest of the decorating, Gail is right, winter is the perfect time.

Hello everyone from WDW!!! It's been a great week of RnR - mostly just visiting the parks when we want to and running into a few people we know - one of Karen's friends has been down here since Jan 3rd - can you imagine that? I can only dream...

Thanks Gail for the link!

Not looking forward to heading home to reality on Friday but it should be a short visit home since I am supposed to go out to Cali in mid-Feb - we shall see if I keep those plans going along. Also have a cruise scheduled for March (another non-Disney - please don't tell Mickey!) with friends again!

Going back to relaxing - one more visit to the Castle tomorrow.

Hope everyone's feeling better soon and keeping warm in that nasty weather up north.

YAY I found us again. I was worried I would lose touch with everyone.
Thanks Julie for starting a new thread

You might want to look into extending your stay by another day. There's some big storm heading our way, snow is suppose to start tonight and continue into Friday. They're predicting 6-10" of snow with the heaviest between 6 am and noon on Friday. Of course on Saturday it's suppose to be in the 40's so hopefully the snow doesn't stick around too long.

Enjoy the rest of your trip!

Wonder if I could really do that Gail - I just checked in online a little bit ago - I'm sure I'll be able to get home - might be later than I'd like but I'm sure with my luck that my flight will find my way home - oh what's a girl to do!?!?! Just glad I'm not driving with the way the weather has been this winter.
