Hey guys - just wanted to share a bit of happy news. I got off the phone with my uncle a few moments ago, and since it's been a little bit since I mentioned it, thought I would now while I'm waiting for the call to go pick my son up from his Scout activity this morning - one of those "we'll call when we're done" kind of things.

My grandmother has taken several positive steps in the recovery direction! My aunt & uncle have moved her in to a Board & Care facility, where she's in a much smaller patient to staff ratio... they told me it's 1 to 2... way down from the Assisted Living place, and the rehab center she was most recently at.

My uncle showed up yesterday and she recognized him and was able to speak fairly lucidly. Her hair had been done, along with her nails, and she told him she felt beautiful. :)

She still has a ways to go, but she is feeling better. Her cracked rib still needs to be dealt with properly, but she has a new wheelchair and apparently said she likes her new room. So we rejoice in those things.

Have a great Saturday all!

great to hear stopher.:thumbsup2
 
OH, I'm so in with this. I will admit that I might not meet each and every criteria...the one that fits me best is that DW thinks I'm a big kid. :thumbsup2

So who am I? Disneyzell (AKA Drew), but DW also posts on this name, so don't let her fool you! :thumbsup2 I'm 40...from New Hampshire. I have two boys, 12 and 8 in addition to my lovely bride.

We have a trip to the World planned for July followed by a 5 day cruise on the new Dream...woohoo!

I am in the middle of a trip report for our Cruise on the Wonder.

I look foward to reading more!

welcome drew!!!:thumbsup2
 

Christopher, glad to hear the news. Thoughts and best wishes to your family from mine.

Don, I am up for 2 XL shirts. Would also pay more for different colors. Currently not on Paypal but could figure it out if that is how you want to accept payment. Can also send you a check. Does the store have a web site? If possible, we could also order directly from them. Less hassle for you.

As to the NCAA tournament, I am not saying a thing. Don’t want to jinx it. Go Bay Lake Bombers and GO GATORS. The big game is about to start.
 
Thank you for playing along.

This is my 400th post and I have a question. Are we Disney Freaks or Disney Geeks.

The definition of a freak is one who is born that way and a geek is one who make himself that way. So which are we? Discuss.

Wow! Impressive run up to number 400. Congratulations on the milestone. About your question... I have no idea:confused3

I don't think they are necessarily mutually exclusive. There are few true pure-geeks or true-geeks. I like to think of it as a continuum, with freaks on one end & geeks on the other (a freak-geek spectrum if you will). So you could set up a likert scale of 1 to 10, with pure geek as 1 & pure freak as 10. Then you could assign a freak-geek spectrum score to each of us. Personally I'd be a Disney Freak-Geek of about 3.4

But I'm also a huge nerd...

Neither... I would say we are as our founder's user name suggests... fantatics

–noun 1. a person with an extreme and uncritical enthusiasm or zeal, as in a love for all things Disney (that last part I added)
