The NEW Official November 2010 Countdown & Planning Thread ~ Come join us! (Part 2)

[Hmom]

The packing light was going well until DH came home from his deck hockey game tonight with broken glasses. WE LEAVE TOMORROW NIGHT!!! Not an easy thing like the stem, nope, clean break right in the middle of the bridge or whatever that piece is that sits on your nose.

With that, I just started throwing things in the suitcases to get done. I am driving him to the eye doctor first thing to see if they will have pity on us. He doesn't wear contacts, but he might now! They can pull a box of contacts off a shelf, but not a pair of glasses. Our insurance is one of those that they send the glasses away to be made.

So, the plan is to drop him at the eye dr, run to pick up some last minute things, get back in time to make DS's birthday shirt before I pick him up at school, go to the bank, do a last load of dishes & be out the door by 5:30pm.

Call Wal-Mart or one of those places in the mall that can make them in one day. You will need to get his prescription from his dr. or they can call it in. Isn't it always something?

Disneymommy2006, I hope your oldest feels better soon. DS8 is starting to feel better from him bronchitis and strep. The predisone is making his hyper.

I can't believe how cold and windy it has been here in NC. It feels like Christmas to me!

16 days today! I've done all the trip-related stuff I can do, now just have to get the house in order, do some Christmas decorating, and keep myself busy! I have the family on a daily regimen of Emergen-C to hopefully get and keep us all healthy! DH is getting better, and so far the rest of us just have sniffles instead of the sinus infection!

I hate what predisone does to my son! He has to take it when he was asthma attacks but it makes him so hype and mean! It breaks my heart! Glad to hear your guy is feeling better!

I am on a round of antibiotics and Prednisone too..I can't sleep worth a darn! And I take the 2nd one by 3 in the afternoon!! Done with meds today...kids are finishing antibiotics.....hitting the store today--all my well laid plans for the weekend did NOT turn out!! Dh said he didnt want the lights up announcing to our 'hood that we'll be gone for 9 days!!! Good idea! But, I never made it to the store for the big shopping trip either...I was just toooo tired...bout to head out now, before our school traffic starts up!

 

[disneymom727]

We leave Friday and I too now have a sick kiddo in the house! Yesterday I was hoping it was just weather related, maybe he was a little run down (he went to his first UNC basketball game Fri. night). No such luck ~ today he woke up with all the gunk!!! I guess we'll be taking a trip to the Dr. today. Gotta make sure my "bug" is all better soon!

 

[MickeyMomOfThree]

Hope everyone is feelingbetter soon. That is the hardest part of travelingthis time of year, never know what you might get.

We are in the single digits and I am starting to panic. But, I have a pretty free week to get it all done. Off I go to start!!!

Oh No ! I am sure it will all work out but I know you surely did not need the added stress. One year right before we were set to leave my DH crown came off his front tooth, there was no time for the dentist so we picked up adheavsive at the pharmacey and he was extra carefull while away on what he bit into

Sending all you guys extra that everyone recovers before your trips !

 

[sjs314]

The snow and ice this am on the day we were suppose to be flying to WDW made us really really think hard about the timing of our trip for next year sooooooo We went ahead and booked CR Tower with a TPV for Oct 23-29 2011 !

Yes I am afraid to fly in bad weather

Anyway we always talked of one day staying at one of the monorail resorts and had been priceing the GF the past few days when I noticed the TPV at CR was not much more $ and when I told DH he said YES he always wanted to be able to see the castle from his room

 

[TiggerFan3590]

It is so exciting seeing everyones tickers count down... Yeah for everyone in the single digits and those leaving this week!!!!
