Ants,
I do private-duty home health care. I used to work in a nursing home, but enjoy the one-on-one care. I have 3 different jobs, but one is full-time(100 years old) and I do a 24-hour every Tuesday and every other Sat. and work 54-69 hours a week, so I really look forward to my vacations. What do you do?
I can't do any of the roller coasters or the teacups, but the thought of TOT gives me nightmares....haven't done Mission Space, wanted to, but chickened out. Still lots of fun things to do...

let's see.. I have jumped from one part time job to another plus a full time...
when I got layed off in 92 I did catering for 2 yrs!! great money but lots of work... then went back to my regular job (I work at the Laboratory in a hospital setting) and at the same time went back to school for nursing.. did nursing for 12 months and gave it up... my heart cant handle it... still working at the lab... and went back to school for Clinical Research... did that for a couple of years ( again doing the lab for my source of benefists and tuition fee) but the occasional travels and the setting of not having patients but subjects got me feeling more guilty... in between took some more cooking lessons.. did french cooking and pastry making... and tried to go to cake biz... got bored and went back to school for photography... but photgraphy was just hobby and I dont think I will ever use it as a source of income... got tired of buying anklets at WDW and so then I went in for jewelry making and baking... and now.. I am still here at the same hospital 15 years later... still jumping from one part time to another and trying to take my vaca every 3 months to see the mouse... there yah go and in between I do billing for doctors offices and also did internet banking acc'ting somewhere in the mids of that chaotic schedule

Hi Colette,

I'm not sure whether you saw my last post, from yesterday. I was the one who originally suggested the Crystal Palace breakfast buffet to you, but I can't go on 12/16, because my trip ends on 12/15. In my last post, I had suggested Friday, 12/14 as the day for Crystal Palace breakfast, Magic Kingdom, Wolfgang Puck Cafe dinner, and Pleasure Island. As I mentioned in my last post, I may be off-property for the day and evening on 12/12.

If you get a chance to look at my last post, please let me know which of my ideas would work for you. Here is my tentative plan:

12/4 Arrive
12/5 Epcot
12/5 Evening - MouseFest
12/6 - 12/9 MouseFest
12/10 Morning - Yuletide Fantasy Tour
12/11 Daytime - resort tours
12/11 Evening - Flying Fish, Jellyrolls
12/12 Off property (Universal/Islands of Adventure)
12/13 Daytime - parasail?, rest of day open for Epcot or AK
12/13 Evening - Le Cellier, Candlelight Processional
12/14 Daytime - Crystal Palace breakfast, Magic Kingdom
12/14 Evening - Wolfgang Puck Cafe, Pleasure Island comedy club
12/15 End of trip

I hope we can still get together for many of these.

Daisy

Kat, I'll go on EE with you, if we can find a day that we're both available for AK.

ANTSS and Colette, I don't do TOT, RNR, teacups, or the spinning version of Mission Space. However, I do Space Mountain, BTMRR, and even occasionally Splash Mountain.

Good Evening Ladies! Looking at the tentative list Daisy posted . . . I hope I'll be able to join you on the 13th at LeCeiler. One of my friends maybe able to join me. Will let you know for sure real soon!

OH! Wanted to add: Don't be afraid of Mission Space. I did it in September for the first time after getting SICK on it when it first openned. Just make sure you dont ride it on a full stomach, and ONLY ride the non-spinning version. It's alot of fun! And no, it doesnt take any courage. I'll definetly will be riding this solo this September!

 

[Colette]

Glendamax,
Le Cellier is a definate, because it's my birthday and i'll make ressies next month-180 days out, so let me know how many. This will be so much fun-I never do anything special for my birthday-usually working....
Daisy,
I have to remember everones dates-I wrote them on my list-both you and Kat leave on the 15th, so 12/14 works for me for Crystal Palace and Wolfgang puck's and Pleasure Island. I changed my MGM day with 50's Prime Time Cafe to 12/12. It gets hard for me to remember everyone's schedule, but once we get it done, hopefully we'll be on the same page. I'm flexible-doesn't matter which day for which place except for the birthday-so i think the way you have it sounds good.
Antss,
Wow and I thought I've had a lot of part-time jobs-i think you got me beat. I worked in the restaurant business for 15 years in Mass, before moving to NH and getting into the nursing field. I have my CNA(nursing asst) and EMT, but have worked also in the school system as a special Ed aide and in the hotel field, front desk, when I need a break from the emotion of my other work. I also had a small dessert business, out of my home(cheesecake is my specialty), but as you can see, I don't have any spare time for that anymore.
I love to cook, worked in a gourmet rest. and also took Macrobiotic cooking class, when I took care of an MS patient and cooked that for her diet.
Kat,
Let me know how that shedule looks to you and if we need to make any changes-it's fine with me the way daisy has it.
Have a great day all-I'll be back tomorrow, Colette

 

[ANTSS2001]

I hope everybody had a nice day!!!

Hi Colette,

I'm glad that 12/14 works for you for Crystal Palace and Wolfgang Puck Cafe and Pleasure Island. When you make the dining reservations, please get the latest breakfast seating available (10:30 AM?) so that those who wish to can go on some MK rollercoasters before breakfast. Maybe Kat and ANTSS will join me for that?

Also, just to be sure we have the same restaurant in mind -- please make the dinner reservation for Wolfgang Puck Cafe, not Wolfgang Puck Dining Room. The Dining Room is extra expensive, so I prefer the Cafe, which is also table service and very nice.

Thanks for saying that my schedule sounds good. I really appreciate it. I think it will work out well that you have your MGM/Prime Time Cafe day on 12/12, when I'm off property. I wasn't interested in Prime Time Cafe anyway, and this way on other days we'll all be able to do more things together.

What time on 12/13 are you thinking of parasailing? What does the parasailing cost?

Hi to Any Guys Out There!

We have a great group of ladies planning some meals and activities together for December. These events are open to all Disney fans. Any men reading this, if you will be there when we will, you are also welcome to join us. Check out my tentative schedule plan in my previous post, and let us know if you would like to meet up with us for any of these meals or activities!

Hi Daisy,
I think I have it straight and I'll do late-10:30 or 11:00 for Crystal Palace breakfast and Wolfgang Puck Cafe, not upstairs(I've only been to the express), but am looking forward to this one.
We have one man joining us-Rich from Connecticut. I met him on the Dec. thread and we've been e-mailing. I told him to jump on this thread, but have been keeping him up to date with the plans and he's going to join us for Jellrolls(not dinner), 50's prime Time Cafe, Le Cellier, Crystal Palace, Cape may Cafe and Pleasure Island, so far. He's also interested in doing some lunches and the parks.
I believe that the parasailing is $90 for single-it's high, but a once in a lifetime for me-I hope you'll do it then we can take pictures for each other. I want to go maybe late morning, doesn't matter to me, just don't want to lose a whole park day. Probably will just spend the day at Epcot because we're there for the evening-how does that sound? Anyone else want to parasail?
I'm just home for a pit-stop and on my way to a new job, so I'll be on later.

[Colette]

Glendamax,
Great-you'll be able to join us in December-now we're just waiting to hear if Antss will get her request. Take a look at Daisy's updated list of what restaurants etc. that we have so far. I can call for PS on June 14th, so I'll need a head count by then. I'll add an extra seat or 2, just in case...
I have the 10th open still, at night. I expect to be there about 3:00, so could meet somewhere for dinner and evening park.

DisneyTraveler is ther dec. 10-16, but haven't heard if she wants to get together with us, so hopefully she reads this and feels free to join in-the more, the merrier..... Colette
