Hi Everyone!!!
Not too much happening Disney-wise, but before I lose all of my 3 readers, I figured I’d better post. It’s April 1st today and I have 157 more days until we’re home. Ah… I can’t wait!
I’ve made myself some new Mickey ears for the trip! I think they turned out pretty well. I wanted a new set of ears and finally decided to just update my bride ears that I purchased during our honeymoon. Of course I added the little flowers and blue sequin ribbon.
I’m not sure if anyone has a Deb’s around their home, but they are going out of business so Victoria and I did a little shopping. Yeah, 90% off is a good deal!! I found a dress that I thought would be perfect for Disney either as the Little Mermaid or Elsa. I’m not sure where I would wear it, but I just couldn’t leave it there…..it was my size and, get this, $3!!!! You read that right folks, THREE DOLLARS!!! Even if I never wear it as a dress and use the material for something, it’s soooo worth $3! What do you guys think???

I was thinking maybe 1900 Park Fare…..maybe…..I don’t know. I just knew I had to have it! I’ll just consider it Disney-bounding and go with that!! Did anyone notice that my new ears match the dress I bought???? Weird![/URL]

Last time they did this they were able to go back to normal function, so I am hoping with some minor changes in my lifestyle, I can make them function well again. Apparently I have Stage 3A Kidney Disease and there are 5 stages. My doctor doesn’t seem as concerned as she is with my diabetes numbers right now. She’s switched me from my long-acting insulin (Lantus) to a short-acting insulin I have to take before I eat (Humilin). The only hard thing I’m finding about it is remembering to take it ½ hour before meals. And I’m not feeling quite right. You know one of those you don’t really have something wrong, but you don’t feel like yourself? The doc states it’s my body adjusting to that new insulin so I need to give it some time. I’m also back to the gym with Victoria everyday walking the track for one mile…..(I can hear Karen and Nicole now…..”ONE MILE?? ONLY ONE MILE?”) this is why they amaze me so much --- they actually RUN way more than that!! Oh, speaking of that one of my friends invited me to a Color Run 10K in about one month……Yeah, I don’t think so, but thanks for the invite![/URL]

Out of 7 eggs we only have 2 that have hatched so far and they are just soooo cute! I’m not sure if all the eggs were fertile or not, but we’ll find out by the weekend. They were all about 3 days apart so some more should be pecking through soon! These two aren’t named yet…..[/URL]

OMG She is sooo adorable! Her name is Kyra. I’m not sure if I had mentioned it, but we lost one of our bunnies over the winter and the other 2 girls were of the same little. They are all 6 years old now and in their senior lives. I thought a new little one would be great, so I picked her up at the Poultry Swap at Tractor Supply last weekend. Animals make me happy and I’m so happy to have her. I do have a new mouse that I got about one month ago that I won’t post a picture of (Hope doesn’t like rodents and I want her to continue to read this report!!) Hi Hope!!!

She’s going to see Halsey (yeah, I don’t know her either) but she’s performing at the Middle East Restaurant in Cambridge on Friday night. Peter’s staying home this time around, especially since we have new baby chicks now. Again we are travelling via bus. We both really like that. The hotel we are staying at has an indoor pool and hot tub so I will be set while she goes and has her fun! We’ll be coming home the next day so no sight-seeing this time around. [/URL][/URL]
