I could use a little moose dust though. I started having some pretty bad shoulder pains over the past few weeks and went to the doctor today to get checked out. He said he thinks I have pretty severe tendinitis. He doesn't think there's a tear because I was able to resist him a little bit. He referred me to physical therapy, and I am going today at 4:45. Hopefully I only need a few sessions to learn the moves and I can do it on my own. If it doesn't start to feel better in a few weeks they want me to get an MRI
I just want to feel better before WDW and I hope it's nothing too serious.

Great pics JT! Enjoy the rest of your trip. We're just winding down from our 3rd snow storm in less then a week.
Sending you tons of moose dust! I understand exactly how painful that is. That's how my shoulder problem started. Dr. said tendinitis. Started out with PT. Didn't work. Moved on to cortisone shots. Worked for a couple months but then it was right back. By the time I got to my 3rd shot & 2nd round of PT I had had enough & went in for the rotator cuff surgery. I wouldn't wish that recovery on anyone. More moose dust for you the PT does the trick!
Jimmy, thanks for the pictures! Looks like you're enjoying pretty nice weather, too. As DDad said, one of our favorite meals there is the burger. They had previously added asparagus to it as well. I really liked the asparagus! DDad, not so much. We've not ventured over to Coronado Springs. I've read really good things about Maya Grill. Someday, I'd like to try it. Tell Tearsa we said hello! So nice she was able to join you.
rusafee, like Julie, 'been there, done that'. Fortunately PT and cortisone injections worked for me. I hope they're successful for you, too. Might be a good excuse for a massage while at WDW!
Happy Birthday Nicoal13!
Happy Birthday Nicoal13 AKA Nicole!!!!
I am sorry for being 2 days late
Looks like you're having a great trip so far JT! I didn't realize how long you all were going to be there either! Awesome!!!!
Nothing much to report here. Counting down the days for our trip (47!) and trying to get through the winter.

Thanks Di! Glad to hear it worked well for you, it gives me some hope!
And I like where your head's at. I think a massage sounds like it will do just the trick. And how can Bob argue with that?

I have got to be completely immersed in this whole WDW exp.
Hi there groupie friends! Long time no see. I've read back several pages but can't remember the last time I logged on so no way I'm going to be able to catch up completely. Hope everyone is doing well. I was expecting to see a new thread. I'm a little surprised the Mods haven't shut this one down for being too large.
Muushka - I'm very sorry for your loss.
DDad - thanks for the overview of DLP. Very interesting. Not sure when or if we'll ever make it over there but maybe some day.
DDi - I enjoyed seeing all your pictures on FB too.
JT - enjoy your trip!
Welcome to all the new groupies that have joined since last time I checked in!
I don't hate it but I don't love it either. Bland is how I'd describe it. First they took away the themed dinnerware & replaced them with generic white & now they've made the rooms bland too. Sad.
Thanks Patrick. You summed up exactly what I've been thinking for some time now. I love Disney & I know they're a corporation in the business to make money but more & more I just see them chipping away at all those little details that made WDW so special. It just seems to be all about packing 'em in now & more geared to first time visitors that don't know what they're missing. Seems like every time I go they have removed something from a menu that made that restaurant unique. It's getting to the point where we have very few restaurants we even want to eat at anymore. The removal of Push just baffled me & made me so sad. I remember the first time my kids ran into Push. So special. We always loved seeing him. How much could that seriously have cost them? I just don't get why they removed it. I did read it had something to do with the license being up but I still just don't get it.
Totally not Disney related but I'm just back from a group cruise with a big bunch of DVC members on the Celebrity Constellation. Oh what fun we had! DVC people are such nice & fun people. If you ever have the opportunity to travel with a group of DVC members do it! If you're a cruise lover & haven't tried Celebrity I'd recommend that too. A totally different experience then DCL but a really good one. A bunch of us then drove up to WDW from Ft. Lauderdale after the cruise. I was only there for one night & unfortunately it rained that day. One member of the group was staying in a 1 BR at VGF so she had us all over for a little cocktail & viewing party. All I can say is WOW! They are gorgeous. I wish they'd replace the horrible stoves in all DVC units with the nice flat top ones at VGF. I have yet to stay in any 1 BR that the burners on the stove actually lay flat. It makes it very difficult for cooking & we do eat in the room frequently. I really hope to get the chance to stay here some time in the future. It will have to be during a low season due to the point chart though.
Snow, snow & more snow here just like many of you. I'm so over winter. Counting down the days until my annual birthday/solo trip next month. It's going to be a very short one this time. Just Fri.-Sun. but still better then nothing.
I'll try to check in more frequently. Take care groupies!
Based on Jimmy's FB page, I think it's safe to say that Jimmy, Tammy et al are having a wonderful time!
I looked back at the first page and see that they are at WDW from February 15 through March 1. Wow, that's a great long trip! Glad to see you're taking some good relaxing time off, Jimmy!
DW & I decided that we needed to make slightly longer trips too so our next two trips will be 11 nights each instead of the 7 night trips we've been taking the last few years.
I hope everyone is digging out of the snow. Here in St. Louis it looks like the snow and ice are finally heading out as we have some 50 degree temps coming in this week. Yeah!!

Hey, Jimmy & Family;
Looks like you are having the kind of time DiznyDi would like to have - anytime at WDW!
Thanks for the pics and the smiles. We are all jealous.
One thing that jumped out in your pics - the GF Lobster Burger; I enjoy it every time we go, but I wish they would drop the goo on the bottom of the chip glass. I remove the glass from my plate once it arrives, and once removed, I feel like the goo left behind is going to ooze into my burger and lobster! Just me . . sorry.
I have got to be completely immersed in this whole WDW exp. All night last night I kept having Disney related dreams, one in particular that stands out is where Capt Hook is chasing me and Casey through the woods at our house
Yesterday, our friend Alan(AnnieTs DH for those who remember meeting them)came over from Cocoa and went with us to AK. We were able to link up FPs for him with our times. I am impressed by the new FP system personally. The kinks with other things related to Magic Band like pin #s not working, etc. are annoying but not vacation altering.
After eating at Flame Tree BBQ, we rode KS and the animals were out in full force! Three giraffes approached our vehicle very closely, the animals that look like texas steers held progress up by refusing to get out of the rd. and our driver was very humorous, at one point he was talking like he was an elephant saying look, its those strange humans, lets take a look, as if we were there for their viewing pleasure.
After KS we saw Flights of Wonder, always a fun show, then rode Exp. Everest. Alan heading back shortly after EE and we rode Dino and Primeval Whirl. Then we headed over to AKL and ate at Boma. Ashamed to say I went back for 2nds at the dessert area but I didnt get a full plate like I did the 1st round so thats worth something, isnt it
In a bit, we will be packing up and moving to BLT to finish out our stay.
Whoa Jimmy, did you see this? (NASCAR alert)

Oh my goodness. And this was just practice.
