The REAL Longest Thread In Dis History Part 5

[Disneymommom]

It's lonely here tonight on the thread. Where is everyone? I know Steph is working but what are the rest of you doing?

 

[Trentmom]

Hi!!!

I am here....

 

[Trentmom]

Why thank you dahling! I try to keep myself looking just wonderful!!! That was fun, did it in the photobucket. I picked all this stuff out and then clicked save and it said I had to buy some of the things my avatar had on. So I redressed, lol, and re accessorized and then it was fine

 

[Disneymommom]

So Marshay, I'm still trying to get to know everyone. Where do you work? What do you do for a living? I was an acctg specialist at a pharmaceutical co. They sold out to a company in Durham, NC and we all got laid off. I was at McKesson, which became Parata and then we became unemployed, lol. OH well. Prior to that job I was always an administrative assistant.

 

[Marshay]

Just read this and wanted to pass it along...

... from various unconfirmed sources: Major changes are supposedly coming to Disney's hotel reservation system as of June 23, 2007. A new program is being implemented for all reservations beginning January 1, 2008. Pricing and rates for 2008 will become date-specific -- that is, you will pay a nightly rate based on that date, based on the season it falls under. For example, if you reserve the first night of your stay under the value season and nights two through five under peak season, you will no longer be able to maintain the value season rate for the entire reservation. In addition, premium rates will now be applied for dates considered to be premium, such as weekends. In theory, you could pay a different price for each night of your stay. On the bright side, you no longer have to split reservations and recheck into your hotel if your stay includes multiple seasons. No word on how this may affect Annual Passholder rates. When making room only reservations for 2008 you will be given a total price for your stay, unless you specifically ask for the rate for each night. Package pricing will not be broken down by day. We'll have more details as they are confirmed.

Hey Marshay!!

I saw that a coule of weeks ago and was so annoyed.

That totally stinks.

They make so much money as it now, why do they have to do this??

 

[Disneymommom]

I'm a mom!

Cool, best job in the world in my opinion. I did that for years until the kids went to school full time and loved it!

Coo...will have to check that out.

if you can't open your pm, there should be a copy in your email...thru aol

 

[Marshay]

OK, I couldn't resist my earlier, shorter answer.

I used to work in telecom for

1. MCI which then became WorldCom and then after I left they went back to MCI
2. Telcordia which was bought out by SAIC (my DH's old company)
3. Verizon, which then bought out MCI

Then I took maternity leave and decided not to go back to work. Originally taking 6 months off, then 1 year, now it's almost 2 years and since we are trying for #2, it'll be at least another 2 years.

BTW, my DH grew up in Shreveport and still has relatives there. We went for a family reunion last June to Emerald Springs or Hills or something like that.

Wow, so you basically have changed careers for a few years. That's good. I hope number 2 comes along when you are all ready.

So DH is from Shreveport. that is 2 hours north of here. If you come back for anything let me know I'd love to come up and say hi!!!

Tomorrow I continue my fertility testing. It's the one where they inject a dye in your tubes to see if they are open or blocked. I had it done before but don't remember much of it...the nurse told me to take some pain meds beforehand...

 

[Disneymommom]

Good Luck tomorrow and remember those pain meds. Don't go into it without anything! I'll be thinking of you.

 

[Marshay]

So I started to plan our May 2008 trip and then realized that baby #2 will interfere with this a bit...If we get preggos now, he/she will be due in March/April so I guess a trip in May really isn't advisable.

We took DD at 3 months which I thought was really good.

no you may want to wait until you are actually preggo and then plan from there so you'll be sure that it won't interfere.
