Thank you! Of course I plan to take LOADS of pics, especially now that I have a total of 7.5 GB of memory cards

I can't believe it either, honestly I really think I *AM* insane! Yep, it grew but I'm working on whittling it down! Not much longer!

We are definitely getting things accomplished. Not much cleaning got done today, but I got a lot more packing done, including a bag of pj's and a change of clothes for us to grab the night we check in since we are getting there so late. I don't want to have to worry about lugging all of our suitcases in that night.

The yard sale went quite well. There is a bunch of stuff (mostly clothes) to be hauled away, but we'll do that tomorrow with DH's work truck. I don't even have a final tally of money because this morning was so hectic with trying to get the boys off to their baseball games and then Jayden's trophy party. I passed out on the couch last night @ 8:30pm. I was so exhausted. DH woke me up @ 9:30 and I remembered that I never went to get the Lowe's gift cards for the coaches!!! He was so sweet and ran out to get them for me. I was so grateful.

Tonight, we are all going to the dollar movies for a break from all the busy-ness we've had this week. I have had to say no to the kids more than I would like to this week when they've wanted to play with me or whatever, so I really want to take a couple hours to just hang out with them. My niece's 13th birthday is the 25th and either we have been out of town or she has for the past 3 years, so we wanted to be sure to see her, so I'm going to go pick her up, as well. The girls are going to see Bridge to Terabithia and the rest of us are seeing TMNT. I wanted to see The Last Mimzy but I got outvoted DH is going to try to meet us there which would be nice. Then Jess is going to spend the night @ my niece's house.

Oh crud, I just remembered I still need to get her gift wrapped up - gotta run so I can leave to go pick her up!

ONLY 4 MORE DAYS! ​

While we all feel like we need a vacation, you do! To finish nursing school, have three kids and get a new job! WOW

Enjoy your trip and can't wait to see how it all goes!

 

[luvfigment]

Wow!!! You have had a crazy week...and still made it on the Dis. Yeah you leave this week for your trip!!!!!

I hope you have a great ride down and you get to relax a little...you deserve it after all. I also hope you met your goal with the yard sale.

I know we talked breifly about jobs earlier in the trip report and I finally got one! That is why I have been MIA on the boards I have been going to interviews and renewing my BLS and ACLS will be done tom.

Well if for some reason things get crazy again around here and I don't get back on before you leave... Have a great trip!!!!

Another busy weekend here! We went to my nephew's Baccalaureate ceremony last night. His grad ceremony is Friday and I hate that we're missing it but I am so glad we were able to attend this. It was very nice.

Today is DH's last day of work and he is beyond thrilled

So we leave in two days and Jayden, Jory, and I are all sick!!! Jayden missed school today (he wanted to go sooo bad) because he has a 100.5 fever and is coughing badly with swollen glands (same ones as a few weeks ago). Jory has a croupy cough but no fever - he's going to school. My glands that were super swollen two weeks ago are still sore and feel like they're swelling again I'm taking Jayden to the dr at 9:20 just as soon as I drop Jory off at PreK right now.

Prayers and positive thoughts are GREATLY APPRECIATED please!!!

ONLY 2 MORE DAYS! ​

 

[disneymoon_0307]

Oh gosh...I hope y'all feel better. Disney is no fun when you are sick. My dad and I were sick the entire time the first time we went. I'm praying for you.

 

[dddisrunner]

Jen, I think you missed my prior post, but I just wanted to say have a great trip and I hope you are all feeling better soon!

 

[BrerMama]

Sorry you're not feeling well! Hope it gets better before you leave!

Thank you! I appreciate your prayers.

I am sooo sorry! I did read it - I must have missed it when I was clicking the multi-post icon

Jen you are superwoman! Just keep checking things off the list! Good for you for taking a break to spend time with the kids!

Thank you soooo much!! It was nice to slow down and just chill out with my kids, and I think they appreciated it too. The movie wasn't too bad, either. Kinda funny to watch TMNT after all these years with my boys Thanks for dancing with me!

Sorry you're not feeling well! Hope it gets better before you leave!

Thanks! I do too. We'll deal either way, but I really don't want to start our vacation sick!

 

[jenr812]

My list hasn't changed since this morning, so I'm not reposting. We just got back from the dr and CVS. His strep test was negative (again) but the NP and I *both* noticed that his breath REEKED like strep. So she gave him a Rx for amoxicillin anyway. Thankfully we have a fridge at POR. She was going to give him a non-refrigerated antibiotic, but he does pretty well with this one so I'd rather stick with what we know!

I am going to try to find the antibiotic Rx that my dr prescribed me two weeks ago and get that filled anyway too. My glands are still a bit swollen, and it has started to hurt when I swallow again. I am going to give Jory some breathing treatments for his croupy cough and that should take care of him.

Everything will be fine. I will not let ANYTHING spoil any part of this vacation. If we need to alter our plans a bit, we will. If DH and I need to take shifts with one or both boys for a couple days so Jess can tour the parks, we will. Anything we need to do, we will do. I think that Jayden will be ok if he just sleeps for the next two days. He is in my bed right now.

Well I better get off the DIS. I lost an entire morning today so I am officially behind on my list.
