Hi DianeWe will miss not seeing you this year.
Doh! I just remembered we are probably going to try to go the week prior to Thanksgiving (depending on how the cruises run) so we may miss you again.
I'm in a Disney state of mind today and I finally have a little time to check in. I logged onto My Disney Experience and see we are 60 days out, I can customize our Magic Bands and Check in Online! w00t!!! Then I start reading to catch up on everyone and those of you that are closer to your trips just make me that much more excited for mine!!! 
Have a great Wednesday y'all.
Wait, we are just up the road from each other, I say a mini meet may be in order
I am just checking in to say Hi and give you a couple updates.
First off, welcome to all the new groupies. And Happy, happy to those whose celebrations I may have missed.
I see some of you are elbow deep in your plans to get home.
Rebecca and I had just an absolutely fabulous time at the Hilton Head Resort. I have determined that while there. one can be as busy as they want -or not busy at all and just enjoy the peace and calm (we did a lot of that). We had a lot of fun, really enjoyed the interaction with the CMs and met some wonderful folks. And while sitting on our second floor balcony overlooking the boardwalk and the marsh during low tide one afternoon, we watched what appeared to be hundreds and hundreds (possibly thousands) of fiddler crabs move en mass across the marsh. That is just a very small sample of the many things we saw and did while there. We will definitely return.
And in more sobering news, it has been confirmed that Homer is in Stage 4 terminal cancer. It is now showing up in his lungs. Had a good report yesterday though, it is not affecting his bones. He has to undergo one more test (next Monday) and then he will be given the green light for chemo. So far, just by the Grace of God and your prayers, he has been feeling very little effect of the cancer.
And finally, the heart ablation procedure I had scheduled for last week resulted in the total ablation of the AV NODE in my heart and I was fitted with a chunk of Titanium in my upper left chest - my newest bestest friend, my pacemaker. I am now pacemaker dependent and have not felt this good in a very, very long time.
Have a Great Hump Day fellow Groupies!
Hello fellow groupies!!!
All this Dec talk has me wanting to be there bad in Dec, alas, it will be 2015 before another Dec trip for us
We don't arrive until the 13th. DDad and I are really going to miss all of you traveling the beginning of the month!We purchased extra DVC discounted tickets last year to use this year. By traveling later in the month we're going to get 4 trips out of 1 pass. Seemed like a good idea at the time, But I'm really going to miss all of you.

.Hello fellow groupies!!!
). Grab a rocker, set a spell, and sip on your favorite drink (spittoon optional).
We'll, since I had stomach surgery 2 weeks ago and have been eating only pudding, yogurt, cottage cheese, broth and jello, just about anything sounds good
I'd really enjoy a pumpkin spice funnel cake though. Or maybe some corn dog nuggets from Casey's.
we walked a country mile from bcv to hs, but beat the boat, we saw it turning corner from epcot to bwv, i told t we would beat it(sure am glad we did, or i would still be hearing it from her and capt.d)
we rode star tours with fp, gmr, saw indy show with will and liz, finally got a jalepeno cheese stuffed pretzel, drank down a pb&j milkshake from 50s lounge, and enjoyed overall ambiance of hs. I cant say park was unusually crowded, but feel for those who have never been to wdw before and arrive with no fps scheduled. We missed it by 1 day of getting fpplus, but no biggie. But tsm for ex, fps gone in 10 mins everyday this week! Once it is on even playing field it should be good, but right now, stinks if you dont have em
Headed to epcot later and rode jiyi, got some popcorn and saw pointer sisters. Let me say, those ladies still know how to get an audience moving. We saw little ol ladies literally jumping out of their wheelchairs and dancing!
then to via napoli for some tasty pizza
Today, its back to epcot for some f&w tastings, then cape may with will and liz followed by yee ha bob at po riverside
I think that night at TOTWL, I couldnt hear well(plus my hearing is not so great anymore)so I missed that totally. Hope you make a speedy recovery!!
Hi HeatherHey Groupies! Long time no "see"!
How has everyone been?
Good, you? that's great medical newsLooks like we are arriving on the same day.
If all goes well that will also be the next time Kati and I are there again.
We must make a point of seeing each other once y'all arrive and before we leave late on the 14th.
We have most of our dining planned and a few days of fastpass+, but we are just glad to be able to stay at the lodge for our Dec trip. We usually have to split between SSR and AKL, Kati is on
Glad you and your new bestest friend are getting along well. Keep it up.
Kati and I received our Magic Bands today!!! She was so happy. Just 27 days until she can try hers out!
I had a bone density test last week and they said my left leg is stable, so I do not have to worry about it doing a sudden break like I had in April. I had my mammogram Tuesday and my doctor said everything was clear so I do not have to do anything else til next year!!
Our part of Texas has had some good rain in the past two weeks, and today was a little nippy. We have our first chance of frost tonight, but later in the week we will be back up in the 70's. Never know around here.
Hope everyone has a good week.
