[timandlesley]

Lesley,

So sorry to hear about Tim, we will keep him in our thoughts, and hoping you all have a better day today!

Amber

Thanks so much Amber, he's still in the hospital, still in tons of pain, praying the doctors will give us some answers today. I had to go back to work today due to some important meetings, so it is a rough day.

Lesley,
Sorry to hear about Tim. Hope he is ok and the rest of the week gets better.
Megan

Thanks Megan, I appreciate that.

Leslie, I'm so, so sorry to hear about Tim. I hope they can help him feel comfortable and that he's well soon. How are the kids handling it? I hope you all have a much better day tomorrow.

Sara

P.S. Nicole, your photo is AMAZING.

Thanks, me too. The kids are o.k. I took them to visit him yesterday and they are very worried about him, they've never seen him hooked up to IV's and out of it before so they are worried. Luke's been sleeping in bed with me and loving it but they cry every now and then missing daddy. I'll keep everyone posted.
Lesley

I know I've been busy and a little preoccupied because of Tim being in the hospital, but I just realized
98 Days to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe it!!!

Now that makes me smile on a depressing day!!!!
Well, gotta run, I'm off to visit Timmy, the kids are dying to see him. Doing more tests tomorrow and possibly coming home tomorrow, Let's pray!
Just had to celebrate with you all for a minute. When I am down in the dumps tonight in my bed alone at least I can tell myself, I'll be in DisneyWorld in 98 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lesley

I just started reading your report today and it got me excited because my mom and I will hopefully be going down to disney around the same time as you.... I didn't think a trip would be happening this year, so just the thought of it made my day!!! (WL is our favorite too, I'm from Colorado so it's like a little slice of home!)

And I am so sorry about Tim!!! He will be in my prayers!!!

Double digits-you lucky girl!

Very cool that your mom will be down there the same time. Glad you "found us". I do so love WL, I was getting sad thinking about it today and how much we'll miss it, but who knows we could fall in love with POFQ and save money every year and stay longer

Thanks! When I visited Tim last night I told him we were down to 98 days and that did make him smile

Thinking of you guys

Thanks so much Jen! He is doing better today. Hoping to post tonight that he is home!!!

Hi Lesley,
I've never posted to you before although I was a big fan of your last trip report. I read the whole thing before I went to the BCV last month. I actually signed up for TGM because of you! You should contact him and work out some kind of deal with him!! We loved TGM's best days and had great times in the parks.I loved your trip report and can't wait for your next one. Your kids are so cute. And I love that Tim is just as excited about vacationing in WDW as you are. Last month my dh and I had a blast at the world, it was my 3rd time there but the last for me was 20 years ago and his first time. I can't wait to go back next year. Oh yeah, our kids had fun too..

Anyway, I just wanted to write to you and tell you how sorry I am that Tim is sick. He's so funny. I loved his jack and diane song. Here's wishing he feels better very soon!
So jealous you are in the double digits!!

Wow, maybe I should give TGM a call ? That is great. Thanks so much for posting, this is such fun for me so it is even better knowing others enjoy it.
Glad yo uhad a good trip.
Actually TIM IS OUT OF THE HOSPITAL! Got released yesterday, he is still hurting but doing better. Keep him in your prayers for a nice recovery.
Lesley

 

[timandlesley]

O.K., so thank you for all of your prayers, I am happy to report Tim is home. Still not out of the woods completely but doing better.
He sat down to the computer today to finish up our calendar. He was so excited we are down to double digits. I wish there was a way for me to upload this as a link or something so you could each have access to it, but I couldn't figure out how so I took a picture of it instead. (It is a Power Point so I can email it to you if you PM me or if someone knows how to post it let me know) As I said before, in previous years we've had a HUGE countdown calendar in our dining room that was a big Mickey ear with number on each ear and we'd take an ear down every day. But since we painted this year we didn't want to ruin the walls again by hanging something huge so this is this years version:

He did a good job, the kids love all of the pictures. It goes backwards so we cross off each day until we ARE DOWN TO 1 !!!!!
I can't wait!!!!
Well, gotta run, laundry to do and we are having a pitch in dinner at church tomorrow so I need to finish up my food. I will check in later. I need to update my itinerary with the new dining changes.
Thanks again you guys!
Lesley

He did a good job didn't he? Just sent it to you Jen, enjoy it!!!!

Love your countdown calendar! That is so creative! I am glad that Tim is home, and praying that he will heal soon. Did you find out what was causing all that pain?

I have a question, again. Is it significantly cheaper to book a DW vacation through AAA? I am wanting to do the Fun Run next January, and when I went to the Disney website the price had increased about $150 since I priced it out in January. I had to price it out with equivalent Value dates because you can't book January trips yet on WDW site. I am trying to go by myself and keep it cheap. It was going to be right around $400 with tickets and hotel, now it is almost $600! Can I find out AAA rates without joining? I would like to know what my savings might be before joining, but don't know if that is possible.

 

[jenr812]

I am sorry - I was so caught up in the calendar that I didn't even share your joy that Tim is home! YAY!!!! I hope he is soon feeling 100% better!!

Thanks, yes they feel it was a severe muscle tear/strain from moving all of that furniture here at the house last weekend.
For me AAA saved me 400 on the package we were booking, including the 58 it took me to join. What I would do is call you local AAA office for a quote, they can call and give you a quote before you join and then you would just go in and join if it was worth it to you. Hope it works out!

Thanks for the info. I have joined one of the dieting threads, and we are trying to do a Peep Meet for the Fun Run. I would really like to go, but I have got to keep the cost down since it will be right after Christmas.

Tell Tim to take it easy. I think he needs some wishes.

 

[ansky922]

Just writing to say what a great family you have.

I am glad your DH is feeling better.

I love your countdoun Calender

 

[dddisrunner]

Hooray Tim is home! That is great news! We will continue to pray for a full and speedy recovery! Best Wishes!
