Good afternoon WISH friends,
We had a lot of fun at Kalahari!
When my kids saw the resort that started screaming and shouting! I asked them why they didn't do that when we went to WDW and they just shrugged their shoulders. 
When we got to the lobby, my DD6 hugged me and said, "Thanks mom for bringing us here again." Then my DD4 said the same thing and hugged me too. Moments like that are wonderful!
At the water park yesterday, my kids and my DH got to tryout body surfing. That was the hit of the night!
The kids had such a great time! 
After we were done swimming yesterday, we went back to the room (we were upgraded to a room with a fireplace for FREE!
) to change. My BIL called and said I didn't have to babysit today and my DH's boss called and said that the jobs in Kentucky and Cincinnati had been cancelled, but that there was one near Dayton that needed to be taken care of. So, my DH is going to Columbus, Dayton and then Parma today. Whew! That is a lot of driving!
(We didn't go with him because I am feeling lousy today. Sore throat, headache, e.t.c. I thought it might be a reaction to the overabundance of chlorine the waterpark used, but my left gland in my throat is swollen so it must be something else. 
)
We went down to the video arcade and let the kids play video games for awhile. My DD4 wanted to play one of those claw games where you control the arm, it drops down,and may or may not pick up a toy. She didn't get a toy, but she said," Mom, I don't want to play anymore video games. I want to go back to the Disney game and you can win me a stuffed animal. " (No pressure, right?
) So, we went back to the game and I gave it a shot. It didn't look like I was going to win anything when all of a sudden, the claw picked up a stuffed Dalmation and dropped it into the slot. People were clapping and one guy asked me if that was my first try and I said yes. He just shook his head and said, "That is awesome....You're good!" (Then he tried to win a stuffed animal for his girlfriend and didn't win. ) My DD4 and I were running around the arcade like crazy looking for my DH and my DD6 to show them our prize. Afterwards, we sat in the lobby for awhile and then went back to the room for lights out. We had to be on the road early the next day.
We woke up this morning and headed out. We got home around 10:30 a.m. and did some work. In the meantime, I am starting to feel worse and worse... I called my mom a few minutes ago and asked her to pick up a couple of things for me before she goes to work. My DH won't be home until very late and I don't have a car to get to the store.
The plan for today.... Nothing! I am not feeling well and am having a hard time thinking straight. (If my post doesn't make much sense, you'll know why. 
) I'm going to have the kids watch some movies and I am going to lay down on the couch.
I would appreciate your good thoughts and prayers for my BIL and SIL. My MIL called us and let us know that my SIL lost her baby last night.
I think she was about 3 months along in her pregnancy. This is a very difficult time for them right now. She lost another baby last year at almost the 5 month mark of her pregnancy. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers as they go through this difficult time.
Thank you.
I hope everyone has a good day today.... I'll try and come back to post later if I feel better.

My DH was not supposed to schedule anything for this morning because we had some errands to get done and important phone calls to make. So, what does he do? He schedules a service call for noon, but it's out in Toledo, so he has to leave at 10:00 a.m. Guess what got done? Nothing! Guess who just called me on the phone yelling at me because it didn't get done? My husband. (Notice, the "D" is missing in DH right now. 
Doesn't he realize that he is the one who messed up the schedule? Oh well... I don't have the patience I need at the moment to deal with that....
I figured it was better to come here and complain, then tell my refrigerator or my snack foods about it.
. You will love Fantasmic, its about my favorite WDW show.
