I am completely that way!!! I have to have a clean house or I can't think straight and definitely can't relax. It drives DW and DD crazy. We laugh all the time and say we have a flipped relationship, I'm the neat freak super planner, she's the ...eh whatever. But we balance each other out.

I am in the cleaning phase now too. I use the Flylady system, I did everything on that plan yesterday. I had my kids to clean their rooms to MY standards.


DH is off today, he will be taking over the to do list while I am getting my hair colored. I have tons of um "silver lights" going on.

What is the Flylady system? Does it make things faster and easier? I have to google this and check it out.

Last day of work and school today, then 2 months off!!! The boys and I have an annual tradition that we started 3 years ago. On the last day of school, after I pick them up from my parents' house (they have a half day, but I have a full work day), when we get home we go into the middle of the living room, we jump up and down, and we yell "SUMMER VACATION!!!" multiple times. It's so much fun and I can't wait to do it again this afternoon!

It does. I have been doing it for 7 years now.

After seeing all these MB delivery issues, I am starting to feel lucky that I am Canadian and have to pick them up at the resort. I was disappointed about that at first. I hope it works out for all of you still waiting for yours!

I arrive in 5 days and all I can say is the whole MB shipping thing has been a huge headache! The status on the MDE page still says they are being customized and will ship soon! I must have called at least 15 times now and supposedly they will be at the resort when I arrive according to the last CM I spoke to! One would think that the MDE page would at least update to reflect this!!!!! What ever stupid company they use, it did not recognize my address and they weren't able to mail them! I never received an email or a call that there was an issue! Even after one of the CMs put in a new expedited order and said they would call if there was an issue!!! I find it extremely frustrating that it had no issues taking the address when I put it in for where to ship the bands as well when I talked to 15 different CM's and gave them my address again, they had no issue putting it in! I'm going to be beyond annoyed if I end up with the standard grey because of this! On the bright side.... 5 MORE DAYS until my Disney Vacation!!!!

Sorry for your frustration!
I think we were the opposite... got several notices to confirm our shipping address. It made me nervous thinking my address kept disappearing from MDE, but it was always there.
I hope it all works out with colorful bands. Either way, a fun time! A day at WDW with gray bands is better than a bandless day at work!
Now back to the grind... 8 days until WDW!!!!

Everyone leaves so soon. I have 32 more days and I was excited about that this morning. I might be the only one left in the group by the time I leave on vacation. I will be waiting to hear how everyone's trips went.

Wow. That's crazy. Sorry to hear and hope they make it to your resort as ordered.

I'm thankful at all 3 sets of ours are safe and sound at home.

1 set for being an AP
1 set for our 1 day cash stay
1 set for the remainder of our DVC stay.

I know, crazy?

First:
Since they've changed MK PM EMH we have to change our MK day from July 20 to July 19. It's also the ONLY day my sister can join us, so I'd like to switch our BOG ressie to that day.

We currently have a BOG dinner reservation for Sunday, July 20, at 4:45pm for 4 adults. We'd like to switch to Saturday, July 19, anytime after 5:00, if possible. We will now have 5 adults, but I'm wondering if you made the ressie for 4 and then called to ask to add 1 adult if that would be ok. If anyone has a reservation for Saturday and would be willing to try to set up a "trade" please let me know!


Second:
Did everyone see this!?!?
