Team Focker Watch - v.9 in which all great mysteries shall be revealed

[PrincessV]

Awww, V...That stinks...but on the plus side we will be there August 19th - 26th

That's what I was just trying to remember/figure out from tickers, lol! FockerFest 3?! It looks like I'll be rescheduling for 8/17-21ish, assuming DVC doesn't hang up on me when I call to change ressies AGAIN.

Now why would they do that

We will be at US from the 16th to the 19th, then headin to WDW on the 19th!

I have a funny, not so funny, oh crap, everything will work out fine story.

Ok, so prior to 7:00PM on 11/29/08, I had never met BIL's GF; the one we were taking with us on a 4-day trip. So, 26 hours later, as we are trying to load 3 excited caffeine filled Loud Children and luggage for 7 in the van, I casually said, "you do like children, right?" She says oh yes, I love them, and BIL chimes in with, "she wants to have 5 children." I just chuckle in my head....a lot, and think alrighty then, hop on in our birthcontrolmobile. By the time we returned to Raleigh, 5.5 days later, her child request was down to 1. I looked at BIL and said, "you're welcome" to which I received a high five, atta girl, 2 thumbs up, and a hug.

Well, 2-ish weeks ago, I get a phone call from BIL saying that his girlfriend is pregnant. The first thing out of my mouth was, "was 12 hours in the van with us not enough?"

Aside from being scared, they are accepting their situation. I should have a new neice or nephew on or around 9/25/09, and hopefully a new SIL as well!!!!! I just got one new SIL on 11/30/08!! I have been waiting 15 years for one.

Auntie S'late... it has a nice ring to it. Congrats!

I'll add in another scenario... I could pull Leo out of a whole week of school and do the 4/3 deal for only marginally more than US. It would be the week before the last week of school. Is that really bad?!

I vote the 4/3 deal.

I'm not multi-quoting this morning but I did read.

I think I should have left Jon in the hospital. I had to help him get to the bathroom this morning and help him get in the bath. Although he has been able to hold down all liquids since the middle of the night. I think it would have benefitted him to be in the hospital on fluids a bit longer.

I didn't sleep barely at all.

Ya' ever had those days where you're being pulled in a million different directions?

I am at work. Jon's with his grandpa. I think he'll start perking up soon. It just sucked yesterday. Between Jon, some other life things, and drama...I needed a big ol' bottle of tequila. Straight up.

Oh...and meeska came through her surgery just fine. She rather enjoyed the morphine part. She thanks you for your good wishes.

I'm sorry. I hope Jon perks up today.

I'm busy listing books to sale again. I mostly list them on my homeschool group, then move to ebay or whatever. It makes me sad to sell my beautiful books, but it is nice to make up some money for the trip or Schlitterbahn passes.

 

[jcc0621]

Hey guys! Quickie drive-by!

Jodi's in Cali right now on her way to DLR! Probably will see her tomorrow!

Catch you later!!

Hi stranger

Are you gonna revoke my Croc pusher card?

Less clutter too!

This is a heads up for Mel...not sure if you will still be in the happy place on the the 31st or not, but just in case BEWARE THE CHEERLEADERS!

Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular to be closed for three days for Cheer and Dance competitions
Jan 22, 2009

Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular will be closed on January 31 2009, February 1 2009 and February 7 2009 due to Cheer and Dance Championships being held in the stadium.​

 

[Muffinygood]

Thanks for the heads up, Janet. We fly home on the 31st so I should be safe from the cheerleaders!

Just packed my clothes! YAY! I still have to add a couple of items, and pack the kid's stuff but that's one less thing to do. I'm bored sitting around waiting to pick up SD so I figured I'd do it. The weather is going to be beautiful! 70's all week!

Tonight I will do one more load of laundry and then I can pack for the kids. They have to wear some of their clothes though. I am packing 1/2 pants and 1/2 shorts for them. I packed capris for me though. If it's a bit chilly, my legs will be fine.

Oh, and V: I vote for the 4/3 dealy too.

Hey guys! Quickie drive-by!

Hi, T!

Just when I thought I had it all planned out...

Ah, honey. I'm sure you'll be able to work it out.

I packed capris for me though. If it's a bit chilly, my legs will be fine.

My legs don't get cold, as a rule. I was running around all day Tuesday without changing out of my tennis skirt, and it was something like 22.

Have you seen some of the cute outfits at the Australian Open? I love the orange!

 

[KatGarcia]

JMO, but I found I liked them a lot more after I read the second one (when she goes to NYC). Might have something to do with me going "ooh, Sephora! I can get this!" though.

Yea I considered that....maybe eventually.

Ok, who saw Lost?!

ME ME!!! It was nutso!!!

Finished reading Twilight yesterday. Now I can tell you that I still think the movie was darn good.

I agree!!!!!

Hola! And good afternoon. Irony has come my way...as soon as KC & I decide its time for me to find work....disability calls!! Friggin figures! But my hearing isn't until March so I am going to look part time and see what i can find. I'm just annoyed, it's been over a year since i was told I'd get a hearing.

Anyways I'm off to take a stroll around the neighborhood and apply some places and do a bit of shopping.

have a great day everyone!!!

I know - mine are all boring.

Head over to the DVC boards, specifically Planning and Mouscellaneous... there is much discussion going on about proposed changes to the 2010 point charts

 

[HomeschoolMama]

Mel! I'm so excited about how close your trip is!!! I just know mine will be just around the corner with how fast this year is already going.

Camryn's fever just spiked again.

 

[Disneyland_Mama]

Hey yall!

Jodi's riding Indiana Jones as I type!


V - I don't like your new ticker. 'Nuff said.

They just posted this on the DVC member website:

On January 21 a version of the 2010 Vacation Point Charts was incorrectly posted. An updated version will be made available within the next week. Members with valid email addresses on record will receive an email when the new charts are available. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Somebody goofed.

Dude, I'm totally jealous.

 

[Muffinygood]

Thanks Dawn! I know, it's close.......I'm not even completely packed! (Look away, T!)

I'm glad someone goofed on that DVC thing. I almost had a heart attack. I can't afford more points right now!!!

Well, we got to the psychologist ok (it was the actual appt. today! HA) And GREAT NEWS! She said she feels that SD is doing well enough that he can see her on an "as needed basis." I think that is SO great! We were riding the elevator back down to the parking lot and SD burst into tears. I said, "Omgosh, do we need to go back?" He said, "No, I'm just so glad that I'm getting better. It's a huge relief!"

This is a great step in the right direction for us here. I'm so happy.

Bob should be arriving into Tampa airport any time now. His folks are picking him up. I am really excited to tell him the news about SD. This vacation is going to be GREAT!

So, what are you guys doing? I'm going to talk to my BFF tonight, if she calls. Then watch American Idol with the boys. (We taped last night)

MEL

 

[sharkB8HooHaHa]

Mel, that is FANTASTIC news!

Dawn, I hope the kiddos mend quickly.

V, what about St. Augustine? Lots of history, great small town walks with galleries, museums, forts to explore...not too far a drive but "away."

**************************

So the recycling center tour depressed me. It was very interesting, but what a downer.

 

[Muffinygood]

Dawn, I forgot to say that I'm sorry the kiddos are sick. Any change?

Kate: Why did it depress you? I've never been to a recycling center. Sounds interesting....

MEL

 

[cmp1111]

Dawn, sorry that I didn't see your post earlier. I hope C's OK.

Mel, that's fantastic news!

K, what happened at the tour? Was it just depressing to hear how much doesn't get recycled? I am a recycling nazi...

Mel, I'm so happy for SD!

I'm 99% sure they don't have any exams, but I'll check with his teacher before any planning commences. Also, I have breaking news...


Enabler 2. Thanks Z - the only reason I'm considering Ft. Meyers is because my dad lived there for years; it's too familiar to be a vacation, KWIM?


Cool!

Did you see my email T? If not, read on...




I'm the latest victim of Ticker-gate. Curse of the Ticker. Ticker-No-Vacation-Itus.

My long and carefully planned Aug. WDW trip just came to a grinding halt. Summer camp info. was released and camps don't start until June 8, a week AFTER school ends, and the camps end Aug. 14, a week BEFORE school starts. Which means I'll have to take off from work for at least one of those weeks. The ex and I each get 2 weeks vacation time, so I'll either split mine up and cover both weeks Leo has no school or camp, or the ex will cover one week and I'll cover teh other. In either case, I'll have to change my WDW trip to either late or early summer.

Just when I thought I had it all planned out...

Boo to Tickergate!

Thanks to whomever posted about last week's croc sale, my Minnie Janes came yesterday!
