What a wonderful idea, April. We should all get jobs at WDW.
To tell you the truth, I did look into this many many years ago (GF spa) but my biggest fear is that WDW would become just "my job" and would lose its magic for me. Does this make sense?? That, and since my sister keeps moving back and forth, I do not have the heart to leave and crush my family even more. I know, it is my life, but we'll see. There are so many more reasons to throw into the mix as well, but that is for another day, another time. Too long and too confusing. Too many decisions.
If you want to start off with a quote
(I forgot this one in my tutorial 
) you can just click the little icon at the bottom of the post that says quote and it has a little piece of paper and a quill pen. This will quote the poster and set up the little quote tags for you. If you want to just quote a part of what the poster says you can delete out the part of the post you don't want.
I've worried about Disney becoming "my job" too.
Sometimes I think I want to be an Imagineer. I want to go back to school for Industrial Engineering and I've thought it would be cool making the magic at Disney but alas I don't want my ShangriLa to become ShangriBlah.
I always thought I wanted to be a wife and mother. That's it. But here I am 9 years later and still no babies. We did try the adoption route
(can't remember if I shared that) and DH and I are just not ready to go that route again. At least not right now. It was too painful when the mother changed her mind at the last minute. I know many well meaning people say, "Why don't you try to adopt again?" But until you've done it you don't realize just what you have to go through. It is very invasive and OOOHHH the emotions of it all. It can really do a number on you.
I've been in and out of depression over being childless for a long time. Last year in August when I found out my baby sister was pregnant (sadly she miscarried
) I went into a very deep, dark depression. It came to the point that I didn't care to even get out of bed. I truly can say I hit rock bottom in the abyss of depression. My DH tried everything to make me feel better to no avail. Finally, he said let's go to Disney.
Very un(my)husband like being spontaneous like that.
Honestly, I was only able to pull it together to make last minute ressies (airline tickets, securing room w/ DVC and tranportation with Magical Express) with his help. He never makes the trip arrangements so I had to pull it together for that. That was on a Monday. We left early on Wednesday morning and somewhere around Saturday night after 3 days of complete immersion in togetherness and reconnecting and while watching wishes something "snapped" (but in a very good way) and somehow standing there on MainStreet with DH behind me and arms wrapped around me watching the castle and fireworks and hearing
"I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish, I wish tonight. We'll make a wish, and do as dreamers do, and all our wishes, will come true. . ." and right then and there, with tears streaming down my cheeks, I felt like "We're ok. We are ok just how we are and what we have is good and we are a complete family just as we are and we are going to be ok" And I never thought I would get to this place in my life when I
wasn't consumed with babies but I am. I still ache from time to time for a child but I feel like I'm starting to live again. Somewhere in those years of fertility testing,poking and prodding. Temperature taking, diet changes and adoption researching I stopped living and life was passing me by as I could see nothing else but how I could MAKE a pregnancy happen. Now, I've discovered I have no Plan B.
I'm only 31. I have a whole life in front of me. What do I want to do? I haven't planned on anything else. If we should by some miracle be blessed with a child, we wouldn't/couldn't be happier but I can't keep my life on "hold" any longer.
-----How did I get into all of that??????
-------- I can't believe some of the stuff I share on here with you guys.
After many times of that happening I just started staying at my sister's. Now, thank the Lord, DH is on a pretty set schedule and he leaves at 5:30am now. {Long sigh of relief} 
) I didn't go as much as my high point when we were working out everyday, but I felt good that I did something .
I was just telling DH this morning, I need to get back to watching what I eat and trying to do a little exercise.
is still in the dryer (I know, big no-no). And I cannot go without one!! TOO MUCH INFORMATION. Sorry. 
Note to self: buy spare bras.
Told you I was illiterate when it comes to these machines.
The books can be a bit scary, or maybe it is just me. (remember----chicken here) She just always gets herself into these wierd prediciments (sp?) and they can be a bit creepy sometimes. And funny at the same time. 
to any newbies that have stopped by!
I'm so sorry for the problems you have been having with your infirtility. Even though DH and I haven't started trying yet, for some reason I am very nervous that I could have that problem, too. I don't have anything to indictate that I would, its just a feeling I get. If you ever need to talk about something, I know we don't know eachother that well, but I am here! Or you can just talk here ofcourse.!!!I myself have been going through a depression since I moved to Virginia. My DH is at a loss at times, and all he knows how to do is book a plane ticket home.
Well, I guess its ok. Its 8 pm, it was getting too late for napping anyway.
