The REAL Longest Thread In Dis History Part 5

[Marshay]

Parla -- many wishes for your health.

I can't wait to hear about Boardwalk. We were thinking of going there next. I did hear the same [negative] comment about lack of food court at both Beach Club and Boardwalk. Someone said to just go into Epcot and buy food at the CS near the International Gateway, but that doesn't seem to practical either.

Since we'll have a full kitchen in our DVC, we plan to have some basics (eggs, bread, milk, cereal) to cover breakfast or a stray meal if we need it.

Steph --

I've been giving your dilemma some thought and wanted to offer these thoughts. Remember I could be completely off-base and only say these things in love. Only you can make your decision -- not your parents, not your Butthead, not your DIS friends!

When I was dating DH before we got married, we came to an impasse in our relationship and broke up. Then I met another guy Steve and had a great time with him. DH and I were still friends -- maybe talked once every 2-3 wks -- but then one day DH says he wants me back. Says he knows for sure that he needs me in his life and loves me and wants to carry this through to marriage.

Well...

 

[Trentmom]

No I wasn't really being productive, hahaha just a little dusting and straightening up, then went to McD's with DH for lunch, for dinner made Pepperoni Bread, mmm was good, much too much fat in my diet for today and you know what that means !

Tomorrow I really have to get productive. Janis is coming up Thurs after all us girls meet for lunch. She's going to pick some of our blueberries for herself and I need to clean up big time as she wants to come in side naturally for a while and see my Tweety collection. I have been so lazy I need to get really really productive tomorrow. I need to find a place to hide things, lol, it's clean but lots of stuff laying around.

Figured that...

Pepperioni sounds yummy...

Just throw all of your junk into the extra bedroom for now..

Just make a neat mess...Love that expression..

Well...

now I have a good relationship with Steve but of course, never stopped loving DH. I'm in a huge quandry.

So I started to visualize and write down what my life would be like if I:
a) went back to DH
b) stayed with Steve
c) did nothing and wait for them to make a move
or
d) broke up with Steve and didn't get back with DH either...just spend time with me

Well...

i kinda think that is what we are going thro... and I think someone who doesnt want us together is feeding stuff into his mind that I am only with him because I supposably couldnt get with someone else... I said "if I didnt want to be with you I wouldnt be with you.. I dont care if I am with someone... if I wanted someone else there are like 3 guys at work that like me.." he looked like his foot had gone thru his mouth and back down to the ground.... things are getting better I just am still thinking about stuffs you know..

I quickly decided that "c" wasn't an option -- I want to be in control of my life and "d" wasn't for me either since I enjoy being in a relationship. So...

That's one of the cool things of the DVC -- you can do the dining plan and don't have to purchase any tickets for the parks, nor pay the rack room rate!

So you mean...you an stay at the DVC resort, purchase the dining plan, and not visit the parks, is that waht you are saying?

That is too cool

 

[Marshay]

So I started writing down the positive things in my life when DH was in it and the negative things. I took a look at which person I like betted -- the Marshay when I'm with Steve or the Marshay when I'm with DH.

Yes, I even went so far as to write the pros/cons about each of them and (ok, insert geekdom here) even weighed each point to see which one was "worth" more. (Remember that Friends episode when Ross did this??? Just don't let your SO know you are doing this if you think they will freak!!!)

Anyway, for me, it was helpful to see everything and it confirmed my heart. I also believe in the power of prayer in that if you ask God for help/advice, he will give it to you.

Figured out...

I have lots of those neat messes, lol. The dining room has all the camping stuff in it that I took out of the camper last weekend. Will put that back in since we hope to go this weekend....have all my unemployment stuff on a TV tray in there, will put that away in the back office. We have all that hiding space under the train table but DH has all the train boxes under there so can't use that hiding place darn it all, lol. I'll find places. Kitchen is fine, bedroom is fine, I have the extra laptop and some pictures in the Family room, can put thm in th office in the back for now too. No on expects your office/computer room to be too neat, right, lol? xo

And if you want to visit the parks, as a DVC member (not renter) you get 30% off the annual pass, so it really makes it reasonable. Just remember if you rent, then you don't get an annual pass discount.

But if you already have tickets left over from a previous trip, or decide to do non-park things (like Downtown Disney, visit the resorts, etc), then you can still do the dining plan. However, you won't be able to eat at any of the restaurants in the parks w/o a ticket)

Last time we started our testing about July and did our first treatment in November and were pregnant in November.

This time we have a new doctor and they seem to be able to schedule everything sooner. Like I said earlier, I already have 3 of the tests done in less than one week. Last time it was a longer. So I'm thinking we could be pregnant as soon as next month but more likely August...so it will be a bummer for me not being able to go on the thrill rides in September...

I think DH wants a boy but I'm leaning toward another girl. I think things would just be so much easier with a girl, since we have the clothes, toys, room and I know what to do with a girl. Also, I don't have to worry about the whole men's room/women's rest room thing, or having her come in the changing room with me in the stores. (Yeah, I overthink things...)

But of course, both of us just want a healthy baby, most of all.

That will stink you miss thrill rides, but they will be there next year....the end result will be worth it..

I had no idea what to do with a boy, but I am doing okay.....I was so ready to play with barbies, dress up, do pretend makeup, et...so, he threw me for a loop.

But I learn as I go along.....it is not as hard as I thought it would be.

But like you said, as long as the haby is healthy, that is all that matters.

That is great things are speeding right along with your tests this time....

LIke your Siggie changies Mom!!!!

Sorry my computer locked up and I had to shut down and it is still rebooting. Am on DH's computer now while I wait. You got Lean Mean Thirteen! Wow, I can't wait to get it but fear I have to wait until next month and get it for my birthday along with a new Danielle Steel book coming out. You gotta tell me how good it is so I am dying to get it. Of course I am dying to get it anyway.

Marshay has a good idea there, way the pros and cons and figure out what you really want before you make a decision. Like I said earlier make a decision that will make YOU happy, not everyone else. You have to live it so you have to be happy in it!

Duh, sitting here moving the mouse around wondering why it won't work and heere I'm on DH's computer using my mouse as my laptop is on the table beside me booting up!

 

[Trentmom]

as you should be!!

awwwwwwwwwww...Thanks Steph

Marshay, let me tell you she has not only learned and doing "okay" she's a wonderful mom and has taken to being the Mom of a little boy really well. It's wonderful being around them, so much fun and warms my heart to watch them!

Great job as a Mom honey, of a boy or a girl for sure!!!! oxox

One last comment:

Also, make sure the person you marry is really "top of the world, will swing from chandeliers, is proud to tell everyone I am with Steph, and loves you to the point where they will sacrifice themselves for you".

You don't want to settle for anything less and why should you?

Also, there is no need to rush into marriage now -- I know you probably HATE to hear this -- but you are 19. You have wonderful years of your life ahead of you in your 20s/30s where you really get to expand your world, try new things, meet new people, and most importantly -- discover who you are outside of your parents influence and your friends.

Don't feel like just b/c your parents are moving that you need to make a LIFE decision (either to break up, move in or marry BH).

OK, OK, I'm done playing Mom.

 

[Disneymommom]

LIke your Siggie changies Mom!!!!

Didnt want anyone thinking I've never been to WDW. I don't even remember how many times we went as a family when you were all little. They were all great times. Remember when Meg & family from England met us there? Remember DS (your DB)'s eyeglasses exploded in his eye there? I especially liked the Mom & Daughter Trip, that was so much fun.....don't know if I can do it, don't know if you and DH would mind and don't know if Marshay would mind but maybe if you buy DVC points from her we can chip in and come with in a few years, maybe a 2 BR suite? What do you think?
