Better keep DD2 away from the Disboards. Seems like all sorts of bad things are being passed around here.
Yeah, the surgeries are a bummer and definitely something that can't be planned. For the financial mess, it's not that unexpected things came up, but just that the person having the surgeries wouldn't be able to go so that ruled out the free / assisted ride for the others. Not to mention that these are the same people who eat out almost every meal 7 days a week and who picked up one (maybe two) laptops, two cell phones, two high-end digital cameras, two Kindle's, one Nook, an i-Touch... all purchased in about a one year time span.
I guess as both a DVC and DisDad member I can't understand how you can begin talking about and planning a trip a year out and then be 45 days from leaving and still not have any idea what park you'll be visiting or have any ADRs for your stay. I guess we're a different breed of DIS'er?
Sorry for the rant. Back to your normally scheduled program.
Hurdle #1 cleared...DW has Broken.
Now Hurdle #2 breaking the Bro. He older than me and not a Disney Person...not to mention has was unemployed for about 2 years...but became employeed at the begining of this year...good news here though...his DW really wants to go back as my Niece is the perfect age for all that Princess cr...umm...stuff. Good new here is he's intrigued...probably because he knows DW want to go back.
Bro will need some Financial assistance from...
Hurdle #3...My Dad...aka primary financer. This will all be a matter of presentation. He took us all down in 2006...but we were in an Offsite House...about 1/3 to 1/2 the cost I've calculated for this trip...but IF I can show him how much "Free" Food he will be getting...he just might bight....pun intended.
You're on a roll! Don't stop now!Better keep DD2 away from the Disboards. Seems like all sorts of bad things are being passed around here.
I hope.
Seems like the streak of bad luck is continuing its move. We found out tonight that our trip to WDW this June has gone from 9 people down to 4 due to upcoming surgeries for one person and finance reasons for the rest of those backing out.
Hey fellas. My classes are over, so I get a couple of weeks of rest before we leave out for our trip.
It loos like I've missed a lot. Especially since I missed the closing of DDC3.How did THAT happen so fast?
The kiddos are really beginning to get excited. We're T-minus 11 days 19 hours, 51 minutes, and some odd seconds till we leave!
well 81 hrs in the books this week!I am starting to pay for my two months off during te winter.These long work weeks are really messing with my Dis time
.Have to go back and read what I missed.

A smooth-talker like yourself should be able to get through the next few hurdles with no problems. GO FREE DINING!! 
Her teacher just let her play solo anyway! Haha! DD just great and it was a fun time by all.

great to hear nate!!!!
thanks for the phone call, im glad to see my tax dollars are going to good use and your not running up the counties phone bill mrs.*@&#^#!! 
well, monday down, left the house today at 9:30 to go to the 11 am hearing. 15 min. to easton, 45 min. to find a parking spot. 15 min to get into the building because people bring every metal object they own to a court house and cant fiqure out why the metal detector is going off.(aduhhh) and lead into an office to find the case has been postponed!!!!
That completely blows. Do they have their cases listed on a web site you can check for future reference?
no, hes a juvinial. they dont have anything on line. even there jury duty is on line but its never up dated fast enough, its quicker to call and get the recording.Ouch
About 10 years ago my mom got called for jury duty. As a life-longer farmer's wife, she was used to carrying a pocket knife in her purse. With out even thinking about it, she walked into the courthouse, only to have security find it. She didn't have time to go all the way back out to the car to put it away, so she goes outside and tosses it under a bush next to the courthouse door. At the end of the day, she digs around under the bush for a few minute or two, finds the knife and heads home.
Food ?
I haven't had a good roast beef sandwich since the last Roy Rogers in the area moved out a few years back.
Alot of Arby's moved into the area, I never tried them, since I never heard anything good about them.
Sat nite my wife brings me home a roast beef sandwich from Arby's, it was a nice thought but, I have never seen gray roast beef, tried a bite garbage time. Not Roy Rogers thats for sure.
How is Hardies, we don't have them here, but are they closer to what I'm used to at Roy's.
Whenever we pass a Roy Rogers we always stop, got to have one of those RB Sand. I miss so much. I will never eat at a Arby's again
In other news... my DD has her first piano recital this weekend! I'm such a proud dad! She was the first one to play out of 7 ladies. She was so excited and nervous that she forgot to stop after the 3rd song and let her teacher play along for the duets (3 more songs).
That's so awesome.

the only thing we have around here is arbys. i think there a hardees in nj close by.About 10 years ago my mom got called for jury duty.

We have plenty of Arby's around here. They're certainly not the best food around, but I've never had gray roast beef there. I wonder if you just caught them on a bad night. I've never had Roy Rogers to compare them too, however, so it could be that you are used to a much better type of sandwich.
From what I recall, Hardee's isn't bad. I haven't had one in quite a while, but DW gets a craving for one every now and then.
ill be ok till she dances her solo next year at the recital, i know then it will hit me that shes grown up and that was it.
just another phase of life i guess, just like the bifocals im getting next week from the eye dr.!
im gettin old!!!!
