I'm sure you guys will have an awesome time. We're planning on going (for the first time in any of our lives) next October. We're meeting up with my BFF who lives in Ireland (Starlight-Princess, around the forums). I CANNOT wait!

Ooh, October is the BEST time to go! The weather is warm but not hot, it's not crowded, etc.
This will be my 4th time going, DH's 2nd. I went when I was little, we went for our Honeymoon 5 years ago, I went last January to run the Disney 1/2 Marathon, and now we are going TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is definitely our most spur of the moment trip, we literally planned it on 3 weeks notice, lol!

Jen, I'm sure you're having an awesome time and I'm so happy you're getting this little getaway with your hubby.

wOOhOO!! Sounds like fun - glad you're having such a good time (BTW I'm waaay jealous - I'd love to be 'doin' Disney'!)
AND thank you all so much for the (non) smokin' cheerleading!! I usually smoke 30+ cigarettes a day, so I know I have to stop killing myself . . when I got my gall bladder out it really frightened me, and seeing my husband and kids standing at my bedside looking so worried - well it just tore me up, I dont want them to have to worry about me like that. SO I'm trying really hard!!

Sounds like you're having such a good time (I wouldn't expect anything else at Disney, of course!)!! I'm so glad you guys got to have this awesome getaway!
I'm anxiously waiting for tomorrow night (Wednesday night) for the World Series to start. I don't expect you guys to watch the game, but I DO expect you to root for the Cardinals! You guys are my posse, now! LOL

We just went a few weeks ago! I love Halloween Time at Disneyland!
I have a few pages scrapped about it, too - in my DST gallery. A whole week there? That will be SO fun! We were only there for 3 days and LOVED it!

Hang in there, girlie! You can do this!
BE STRONG!
Who are they playing? (Yep, I'm not ::that:: into sports, lol). You can count on me to root for the Cardinals! My mom is from St. Louis, I've always thought they are a cool team!
Good luck with your calendars, too, Kate, I think you should do them, think of how much joy they will bring for the ::whole:: year.... just sayin'
YEP, that's way more curly then mine is! I bet you look way cute with it curly, too!
I can see how it takes 40 minutes to straighten if it's so thick! Wow!Glad you are taking the plunge and quitting. You will be so much more healthy! You're kids will be so happy to have their mom around longer. It's one of the best things you can possibly do. Hang in there! you CAN DO this!

They're playing the Texas Rangers. St. Louis is the best baseball city EVER! We love our Cardinals!
I AM going to do my calendars. I need to get them done this month, since it's a 10 pointer for the portfolio!
The Cardinals are ::way:: cooler than the Texas Rangers! I'm rooting away! My boys will love watching the World Series, my middle son played on the all stars team in the summer and is totally into baseball!
And WTG on your calendars! I can't wait to see them, and if you're giving them to anyone as gifts, they will totally faint at how awesome they will be!
Awesome! You are going to add YEARS to your life! PLUS think about how many SSD scrapbooking kits (LOTS!!!) you can buy with the money you USED to buy cigarettes with! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Great point! For every time you would have bought a pack, you can buy a kit!

Yep, your health is SO important, but you'll also be saving SO MUCH MONEY... That saved money should obviously go to something fun. I would use it as motivation!
I had comp time that I had to use this week, so I got the whole afternoon off. I'm going to take advantage of this time and do a bit of scrapping and make a big pot of chili. Yum.

Mmmm. We had chili last night for dinner. Not sure what I'm going to make tonight. I think maybe beef stroganoff.

5 Days is AWESOME Donna! Keep up the good work, you are doing great!
I seriously woke up 4 times during the night hoping that it was morning. Yes, I was that excited. We're getting ready and eating breakfast now and then it's time for MICKEY MOUSE!

GO DONNA! That's awesome you're on day 5, girl! What kit are you buying yourself today??? You deserve one, sweetie! I'm proud of you! Keep it up!
Hope you're having a blast, Jen! That sounds SO awesome! I remember going to Disneyworld as a child and LOVED it. My kids will prolly never go there, since Disneyland is nearby, but truly, I think Disneyworld is better! I hope you have so much fun, it sounds like you're having a blast! Can't wait to see your pictures, too!
We're heading to southern utah for the rest of the week to visit my parents. It's fall break here for the kids (well, we're pulling them from class a few hours early to beat the rush). I'm excited to go down there. They have palm trees and it's about 15 degrees warmer, so 80 degrees is sounding good right now as I'm listening to my heater running!
It was 39 degrees this morning, but should warm up to 65ish. I wouldn't mind seeing some sun (especially since my barely tan has already faded from summer, lol). Hope you all have a fabulous week!
