| Karen, You might consider asking the manager of your favorite drugstore to get some... otherwise, an outdoor store, like EMS or REI might have it...

 ). But if they don't have any by Tuesday next week I'm going to get a new cell phone (did I tell you the story of my cell phone getting flushed down the toilet??????) so I will check EMS then.

| Sounds like you're getting there with the preparations! Your DH sounds like my DH only he would deny being the one to get into something, even if he KNOWS he's the only one that uses it!

| I'm all caught up on your pre-trip report and it sounds like you are very well organized. My jaw hit the floor when I realized you bought into DVC before your DH has even been to Disney yet. You Go Girl!! I really hope you have a fantastic time and even Grumpy finds the magic of Disney irresistable.

I "Believe" Grumpy will find the magic too! He just does NOT deal well with any kind of change! And anything new to him is an "automatic dislike". Once we get there and he sees what a photographers dream it is, he should be all set!

| Looking good Karen. I have things in plastic bags in the training case with the lid closed so no-one can see them in preparation for the last minute stuff!! Let us know how the meltdown goes

| Great start, Karen. I don't know where else you looked for the moleskin, but I always get it from Target (or more recently, Walmart - which B.M. already stated.) I'm like you - have to have it everytime we go to Disney. See you at the Dole Whip meet!

| Newest list of Stressors: So I thought I would be more relaxed as our trip neared, but boy was I WRONG! Here are just a few of the things going on this week: back door project supposed to be happening TOMORROW slider needs to be replaced, a bunch of water damaged boards repaired and other minor repairs made on house. I make ALL the arrangements with MY family to come and help (DH is not exactly handy but he tries and does follow directions pretty well). WELL DH decided YESTERDAY he is NOT up to doing it now!!  OK he was the one FREAKING out about getting it done RIGHT AWAY! ME - Fine we'll put it off till September, but don't expect everyone to drop everything and come help. Who ever can come will come - what ever! DEEP BREATH... LET IT GO>>> AHHH...Disney Math - See my rant in my thread how 7days = half a month. Actually DH freaked out on me because apparantly our being gone for 8 days turned into him losing half a month at work. It set me into a tail spin! DEEP BREATH... LET IT GO>>> AHHH... THough if I go by HIS math, does that mean when I go for 4 days in December I can actually stay for 8????? More Disney Math - Ok not really - I'm just an idiot and I can't ADD. I thought DD monthly tuition bill (automatic payment) was all set and put final $$ in account it comes out of on Tuesday night for Wednesday withdrawal. Get notice today they received payment. All is good right? WRONG! I only put in ONE WEEKS worth of Money, NOT ONE MONTHS WORTH!! So I OVER DREW our checking account (OOPS!!) BUT luckily I was able to transfer the rest of the money in this morning!! (Still I HATE paying that stupid bank fee! NO one to blame there but me!) It's still new to me. The plan is to keep the money in the savings acct (where it can earn a measly little bit of interest) and transfer it into checking at the last minute. Silly me needs to remember to transfer the entire payment, not just what I have deducted from my paycheck weekly to cover it!And one more not so great stressor that I'm TRYING to look on the bright side of: DH is in charge of filing FAFSA (For those of you not in the know, FAFSA is the free financial aid forms you have to fill out for college age students, and it is a pain in the patooty ESPECIALLY if you are self employed) Well DH apparently DID NOT fill one out for BOTH children!! UGH!! Which I find out TODAY!! SO my DS has now lost his scholarship (and probably won't get it back  ) and he won't be able to get a student loan AND his $$ is due WED!!! UGH!! Cuz I just happen to have another $3085.00 sitting around - NOT! Well DH did call the school - I did ask him several times in FEBRUARY "You did file for BOTH kids RIGHT????" - and they are trying to help him sort it out even though we are way past the deadline! BUT I still gotta pay the bill! So I whipped out the Disney Visa card and YUP put the $3085 on it. Tuition paid. Disney rewards dollars earned - You Betcha!! Though we can't use them for this trip, I will be using them for one of my other trips in Dec or Feb! And DS Corey said since he can not get a student loan this semester he is going to help pay off the visa!So it's all good.... SORT OF! At least I know where I'll be 2 weeks from today... sipping a gray goose slushy in Epcot, enjoying a little down time while the kids have some fun at DQ and DH is.... well I'm not sure...
