Hi!
Hello & Welcome! 
This is my first solo trip so I decided I needed to share it with the DIS. Ok there wasnt too much question of sharing or not, solo or not, because I am seriously addicted to Trip Reports in general. I love reading them and having one going myself keeps the trip in perspective for me, and reliving it afterwards with all of you is the best part!
So who am I?
Im Kat.
32. Stay-at-home-wife. Former Pro-Wrestler. (crazy Im aware). Avid Reader. Awesome cook. Even better baker. Married to the bestest DH who doesnt think Im crazy for going solo (well get to why later). I am a long time Disney enthusiast (thats a nice way to say obsessed) and have been at least once every year for the past 3 years (ever since our honeymoon the enthusiasm grew). I have been prior to our honeymoon but didnt know nearly what I know now (Thanks DISboards)! Tink is my favorite but I love any and all things Disney!
What do I look Like? Here ya go .
Me & My Fav Alien
Me & DH Narcoossees Anniv Dinner
When am I going and where am I staying?
My dates are August 18-21 @ Pop Century
and
August 21-25 @ POR
AND
August 25-28 in Orlando & Tampa.
Get all that? Stay with me. Ill keep you in the loop I promise.
I just cant get enough of WDW. DH, not so much anymore. We went on a spur of the moment gifted honeymoon trip in 2005 and loved it. I still look back and realize how much time we wasted not knowing the inside stuff I know now. We didnt even have ADRs!!! I know! But I have since learned and DH has been wonderful and let me plan all our other past trips and loved them. We went alone at Christmas time after my mom passed away and had a fabulous time. Then we did a impromptu weekend of F&W & MNSSHP (4 days) and then this past January we got some friends to go with us and showing off my home away from home was fun for me and for DH.
Then The Fockers, a crazy and wonderful bunch of people from these here DIS boards, decided on a meet in August I pitched the idea to DH. He has had enough Disney for now (GASP!) and wasnt really interested in going. So I pitched the idea to a friend, and ALMOST got her to come, but she couldnt get the time off work.
I didnt really know what to do then. Then one of my Focker friends, Z (lurrrvtheduck) offered to room with me because she didnt know anyone else who wanted to come with her either. So a roommate situation was born! 
So since I was going to be gone for a long weekend (the original plan) DH got invited to visit our close friend, Ricky (who actually came with us last trip), who has recently moved back home to Miami from NY. Then Ricky announced his parents have a time share in Orlando that we can all use. So this is where it gets a bit confusing
DH can only get a few days off of work (his 1st year working there) so he will only be gone 7 days. He wants to see Miami and come to Orlando. I decided somewhere in the middle of it all that I wanted to go solo for a few days before meeting up with Z. So I'll be gone for 10 days.
So the official plans are as follows (still with me????)
August 18th- I depart NY
August 21st DH departs NY for Miami
August 23rd- DH & friends arrive in Orlando @ time share
August 25th- I check out of WDW and go to time share with the guys
August 28th DH & I fly home together
Make sense now???
Ok thats the beginning much more coming soon.
And there will be links- for easy navigation!
Oh- heres the links so visit the mania that is our planning report for the Focker trip: HERE!
