Horselover ~ The ornament was in the gift shop at AKL and in Africa at AK. I think the shop was across from Flame Tree BBQ. If you don't mind picking up one for me I would really appreciate it. I'll reimburse you for the ornament/shipping. No problem. If you don't have the room it's fine. Have a great trip and enjoy!

You got it birthday girl! I will do my best to succeed at this mission!

One more sleep ...

... but I don't get to fly to Florida. Tomorrow my eldest and I head out to CA. We got to see my FIL on skype last night, so at least my son is prepped. Just talked to my DW, and the change in him between last week when she arrived and today has been remarkable. The deterioration is going very quickly. She said common sense things aren't happening any more, and he's having trouble even holding a spoon. Today was the first day he's been outside in more than a week, and just getting up out of his chair to come back inside took so much energy that he went to lie down and slept for 4 hours. It will be interesting to see how the next 10 days goes. I have lived through this before with other relatives - but none of my DW or her siblings have. They don't know what to make of it all. Everything she has described so far happened before with other relatives. It'll be nice to be together again and resume my place as her rock for a while. It's not quite as easy to do when separated by 2200+ miles.

Stopher-Sending hugs and prayers to you and your family.

Hi, I just subscribed to this thread!

We will be using my parents timeshare next Nov (2012) and have FINALLY narrowed it down to VWL! I'm excited about this and have LOTS of time to plan. This is the 3rd place we were planning on staying, so I'm hoping we're finally done, and going to call WL home for a week next year!

Welcome to our thread Photobee ​

Grab yourself a rocking chair and stay a while.
We love new Groupies! Lots of VWL knowledgeable people here if you have any questions.

 

[Muushka]

Have fun today Trish!​

Like everyone else here, think you will fall in love with the place when you get there. Have fun planning!!

Happy Birthday, Trish!

Hey, everybody! I missed yesterday, but will make up for it today!

I have 59 days until I sleep in our beloved Lodge!



Although I could use a Lodge fix now! Right NOW!

In other news, my DW's friend did not get back with my wife on Tuesday. I told my wife to call them to find out if they are going. I hope that they can.

Hi Groupies:

You guys rock! Thank you very much for the birthday wishes and making my birthday very special!

After taking mom to the chiropractor we went to the diner for a late breakfast. Had a nice time and we enjoyed the quality time together. Since it was a little early for dessert... I brought home a piece of cheesecake for later on.

horselover ~ Awesome!! Thank you so much for picking up the zebra Mickey ornament. DH will be surprised this year when he sees it on the Christmas tree or somewhere else in the living room! I'm just wondering how long it will take DH to notice it! I could move furniture around and do all sorts of stuff and he won't notice it BUT if I move anything in the office/kitchen... he'll know right away! Seriously... if you don't have room to pack it that's fine. Priority is you getting the ornament. Have a great trip and when you see a zebra... think of me!

wildernessDad ~ I'm with ya...I would love a lodge fix right now and eating a cupcake on one of those rockers over looking the pool! I hope your wife's friend will be able to join you. If you need any volunteers I think you may find several of us here that would love to go! Hint!

Have a great day everyone!

Oh, I love that Tinkerbell! I'm stealing it to add my birthday wishes to Trish. Hope it was happy!

Stopher- You're in my prayers, too. As is the rest of your family. I've been on the road you're traveling and it sucks. I hope I never have to see another loved one die from cancer. Take care of yourself as best you can. You have so much going on in your life right now...

Any groupie ever had a dental implant? Now that I am unemployed and have no dental insurance, my teeth seem to be falling apart even more than normal. That toothache I had back in June eventually turned into a trip to the periodontist today to find out that I have a cracked 6 year molar that will have to be pulled. And since it is a key tooth for chewing, I have no choice but to get it replaced. I go next Wed to have it yanked and have a bone graft to help replace the bone I've lost from my jaw. Then wait 4 months and have a screw put in the jaw. Wait another four months and finally get a new crown. I've had lots of root canals, crowns, etc. but never a dental implant before. I'm not sure I can handle a hole from the missing tooth for 8 months (although I doubt you can see it much since it is in the bottom and in the back). Sounds like something that will drive me crazy! Anyone have this done? How bad is it?

Yes I have ! Lost a tooth to an accident in 2007. It does take that timeline but they give you a retainer/flipper to wear. It's a pain initially but I did get used to it. So much in fact, that when it was time to get the flipper out and in the trash when my implant was finalized it felt SO weird not having it. Any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Stopher....thinking of you. Thoughts and prayers to all.
