Who's going in 2011?

[chwgmjay]

Sorry about your grandma; I hope she recovers quickly.

Thanks.

It's been about a week since her fall, and she's slowly getting better but her insurance is requiring that she be homebound for a while.

I came Monday morning after work (it's a 4 hour drive to get here) and she was just getting back from her first post-fall doctor's appointment and was very very purple and puffy. This evening she's a lot less puffy and the purple is slowly fading. I have to drive home tomorrow around 8 am so I can spend a little time with my cat before work tomorrow... Should be home around noon, then cat play time, then I work 2-9, 9pm-9am fri/sat, 9pm-9am sat/sun, and then my mom is coming back out with me next week since she has vacation and I took Sunday off.

I've pretty much just been doing the grocery shopping, cooking, and cleaning around here... pretty boring, but there's no high speed internet. I have a cellular router that uses an at&t network card to pull cellular data, but it's VERY slow so updating stuff just gets to be too frustrating when the internet times out, etc.

We're planning for Sept. 8-15th. We usually stay at the Wilderness Lodge, but want to try something new next year. Also, crossing my fingers for free dining!!!

My son and I are planning a May7-15 trip, staying and POFQ - unless a good discount comes out and then we will switch to WL. We are leaving in 47 days for a 9 day trip, staying at CBR.

Updated.

Also, I will be cutting trips to every other week (and I got high speed internet access for the grandparents so it shouldn't be a problem updating anymore.)

So what exactly to the Spreadsheet genius put on their sheets?

I have formulated my own DVC point chart sheet to tally different scenarios -- does that count? I only need to wait until 7 mos before June 1or 2 to book! AAACK... this is going to be a long bunch of months until I can get my rooms all organized and booked!

So what exactly to the Spreadsheet genius put on their sheets?

- I always list the park hours and hours of events (parades, etc.) for each park for every day of our trip.
- Then, I code in the EMH mornings and evenings
- Then, I colour code according to our likely park visits.
- Then, we debate and change the colour coding multiple times.
- Then, we add some ADRs and write those in.
- Sometimes we write in a CS or snack that we REALLY want to remember.
Etc.
Yes, we're obsessive!

If you put it in a spreadsheet it does!

I do the same thing! I even have a section where I calculate the pet sitting fees and anticipated tips and other expenses (i.e., budget)

My partner and I along with our two kids will be heading down on May 31st, 2011 til June 10th. The new specials that have been released have saved us a TON over last year. I've learned some new stuff that has been changed since last year. Really exciting!!!
