Shelly- I am very happy to be celebrating that three year anniversary with you and my mayers friends as well.
I wish there was another may trip in the works for us again too!
YAY Lake is here today too!
I know, I told DH the other day that I sure wish we would go to WDW 2 times every year -- MAY and November!! That would be perfect!
We're happy you're back too. I think we have all been busy with Christmas and New Years. JO has been to SC and back. I have been busy over on my TR. The MAYer thread has been slow to say the least! I'm hoping things pick back up and get back to normal now!
Now, where are Sea and NC??? They really should be here for our sentimental MAYer day today!!
What about the not-so-vintage, not-really-a-MAYer, MAYers? Will they be welcomed back with open arms too?
Okay, Jo is it totally weird that I can answer your questions before you even ask them??!
You're plans look awesome!
It makes me wish we were going in MAY! Can you believe it has been 3 years that we have all been chatting? Wow, I remember when we were all planning our MAY 2007 trips. Remember how many of us there were?!I remember the days it was hard to keep up with the thread it was so busy. We sure have come a long way. We've had our ups and downs. Times when the thread was busy, times when it was slow. Times when the thread was fun & filled with lots of laughs, times when we were there for each other during hard times. Times when we had MAYer Meets!
Wow look at me getting all sentimental! I guess this time of year makes you reflect on the past year/years. That, and the fact that I have recently found out that someone I thought was my friend really wasn't that good of a friend after-all. So I am really grateful for the good friends in my life.
We love you Shelly!Good morning everyone!
Happy (belated) birthday Jo!!!!
So, I have a question for everyone about how to do window treatments for a really huge window in my living room. I am lost.
I have super '80's blinds in there right now and I am ready for them to go soon! I would say that the window is probably 8' wide and 6' tall. But I need to get some solid measurements. I just want to know if anyone can send me a link to show me HOW to make it look nice with a window that huge.
I was thinking of doing 2 smaller rods and getting 4 panels - but I can't picture whether that will look ghetto or not. LOL.
LOL-- Shelly!!! Great minds think alike and all that.
Haven't really done that with you guys yet.
Okay- so as most of you know---- I was a single mom when I met Mark. Mcat was 8 months old when we started dating. So there has never been a time in our relationship where there wasn't a child involved. That, coupled with Mark's very high pressure job--- we just have found that it is best for our marriage to go on vacations at least once a year as a couple-- it's very important for us.
Last year when we went to DL-- it was only a "sort of" vacation b/c it was coupled with his work and meetings and such. And we did get to go to Hawaii-- and extended it. but still, we were surrounded by work associates- so while it was a wonderful vacation, he still felt like it was work centered. I mean- it's really hard to relax when you've got the higher ups of your company with their eagle eyes watching you.Sooooo- all of this to say-----
yes, we are going back to WDW. But this vacation is going to be totally different than the others we've taken.
Staying at the POLY, thanks to the fab pin I got--
And I'm totally not going to go commando. Which is a complete shock to my system. We're sleeping in, not doing rope drops--- not going to the parks till late, touring the other resorts, playing at the pool, eating a ton and, well... relaxing.
I'm not sure I can handle the change of pace but I know Mark really needs it. So I get to go where I want-- he gets to relax-- we're both happy. B/c honestly- he didn't bat an eye when I said I wanted to go back to WDW... I think he knew it was coming. And I think secretly he was excited too, although of course he'd never admit it to anyone.
Places we're eating this trip--
'Ohana*
Artist Point*
Kouzzina breakfast*
Kona breakfast*
Le Cellier
Teppan Edo*
San Angel Inn (of course)
Liberty tree Tavern (another must do--- tradition.)
Jiko*
All of the starred ones are new for us.
So we are really excited!!
Any tips for a relaxing vacation?
I can post days and parks and plans if anyone is interested.
We're happy you're back too. I think we have all been busy with Christmas and New Years. JO has been to SC and back. I have been busy over on my TR. The MAYer thread has been slow to say the least! I'm hoping things pick back up and get back to normal now!
Now, where are Sea and NC??? They really should be here for our sentimental MAYer day today!!
Thanks! I really am looking forward to 2010. I was looking back at 2009 and the things I got to do and the people I got to know, and it was pretty amazing when I sat back and really thought about it!
Is it too quiet in your house, too?
- but it was about 83 and sunny yesterday and today more of the same. In fact, it is suppose to be like this all week long - maybe dropping down into the low 70's by the end of the week. 
- SeaWe got home from Carolina late last night and I woke to Birthday snow this morning-- so it's been QUITE the Birthday.
Jo
Snow, Snow, and more Snow here.Good grief!
Well, I hate to bring this up...
