Yeah, I can't relate...

I'm sure you CAN!!! (PM reply forthcoming...)

A successful trip involves riding BTMRR 20 times????

WHY did I forget that one on the Trip Tenets????!!!!

Except for the dictator... I mean benefactor, right?

RIGHT!

No whining about weather??? It isn't a Disney trip if you can't whine about the weather for the 10 minutes that it is raining!

Ok, fine. Everyone gets 10 minutes. But that's it!

This one, I can definitely relate to. Hence my urge to step out for some solo time any time others want to sleep.

I LOVE the early mornings when everyone's still getting ready and I can sneak out for a short walk with the camera. Quiet, clean, space to think.

Ok, this is a good rule and it should go without saying. But it feels like there must be a backstory to this one?

Not really, except that's just the way it is. I mean, they've only had to eat re-heated peas a couple of times.

Perfect! I think we have one like it somewhere too! But this is just precious.

OK, I've been struggling to keep up with everyone's reports and keep my own plugging along so that I am finished with the last trip before I start the next one. But I have been reading along with you on my phone, I just don't comment well from there.

I hope that this break gets you nice and recharged. I think you are visiting your parents the same week that I am on my next trip.

I found a "Y" picture. I know you already posted a shadow of a Yeti, but here I give you "the Yeti depicted in artwork."

Burn out is real, People.

I hear ya. Especially this time of year.

We could box up all the crap and swap! Then our kids could have all NEW crap. (To leave on their bedroom floors.)

I don't think I have enough boxes for all of the crap! I know I wouldn't be able to walk in there.

I specifically remember you writing this in one of your chapters a LONG time ago. I think it was the American Pavilion show?

Oh, I don't remember. But it is definitely a common refrain.

3. Everyone can and will have a great time, afterall, this IS a Disney Trip. 99% of Earth's population can only dream of a trip like this. Keep it in perspective.

I should've mentioned that one to my family last year. Way too many grumpy people in the Happiest Place On Earth!

5. Everyone needs a little introvert time. It's ok to take some if you need it.

Everyone in my family can agree to that one. Dd was mad at us yesterday because we were actually home before she got off the bus, and so we actually *talked* to her during what she thought would be her quiet time. (Not quite alone, since ds was downstairs, but it would've been quiet.) The trick is getting your alone time when someone else is wanting to talk your ear off...which also could apply to pretty much anyone in my family!

Well, it isn't Disney (or Yosemite), but I do now have a reservation for camping over Memorial Day weekend with a bunch of friends (and our assorted families). It's been maybe 5 years since we've managed to go with them, so this should be fun.

These are long gone but ...

Let's start off with everyone's favorite bear:

Winnie the pooh

Who doesn't love a bathroom?!

Women's room

Easy?? Let's hear specifics...

Well okay the Women's room by Pinocchio's Village Haus

This is the tricky one for you lexiphiles!!! Guesses??

Wrought Iron

Then all the Webs from HM

It's been a standing rule since they were infants. Waste is not okay.

Infant waste belongs in diapers....

Hey Peeps!!

I'm way behind- me no likey. But it truly is the last push to the exam on Wednesday. Study tomorrow, Clinical all day Monday, study Tuesday.

I desperately want to finish replies and engage here, but also want to finish the term strong.

I sneak on as I can, but solid hours to post is probably not going to happen until after the exam.... And the requisite celebration, assuming I pass.

"And why do you think you failed this exam."
"I was up until 3am on the DISboards."
"Oh, well, that's okay then. We'll just give you a pass."


Probably not.

I sneak on as I can, but solid hours to post is probably not going to happen until after the exam.... And the requisite celebration, assuming I pass.

You will!

I must admit... I'm torn.
On the one hand, I'm of the opinion that you're doing so well you don't need thoughts and prayers.
On the other hand, maybe that's what's helping, so...


Thinking of you! You got this!

Yea I'm the same way and we KNOW Liesa will study to excess but I figure why tempt fate.....er, faith!

 

[franandaj]

Good luck! But you don't need it, the force is strong with you!

 

[Steppesister]

Thank you ALL so, SO much for your confidence and encouragement! I will have time for sure to spend on the DIS tomorrow and do a BUNCH of catching up.... everywhere. Meantime, last minute cramming. And another dose of pre-exam Imodium.
