I like to book stuff early too. We finally booked flights for our May WDW trip for our friends’ wedding and our July trip for UO, WDW, and Disney Cruise Line. Can’t book dining at WDW yet. I will probably look at dining reservations for UO.Well, trying to catch up here and I’m late in checking in
Some of you are having it bad with the cold and snow
I lived in the north with long cold winters a long time so I have not forgotten how hard some of you are having.
Once you get past this month and next, I hope you have a early spring and can enjoy being able to not be bundled up
It’s kind of a challenge to me trying to buckle down and make set plans for a fall trip
Been looking at hotel rates and possible flights that seem acceptable.
i rarely book anything 9 months out but have started looking now.
Don’t have a problem locking in a hotel room but hesitant for booking flights as Delta has changes made up to about 3-4 months out from my trip time
Figure I need to follow others and get plans etch in for this fall
Don’t laugh but usually I plan where to eat in the parks/hotels asap once I lock the basics in for travel
I will start to walk more and diet 3 months before my trips so my clothes will fit
Lol
But if I fail to reach my goal, I fall back on my chubby clothes I have.
Do have various sizes for that …
Sweet dreams to all
check in when you can as I’ll be counting noses at midnight
We aren’t doing Thanksgiving this year. Not sure about HHN. It’s hard for DS on just a long weekend. Plus, I might be going to Disneyland in September with friends for the D23 expo. DH and DS won’t be able to go. I probably won’t do 2 trips without them so close together.
A quick procrastinating Mondau morning stop in lol
I blinked and the weekend was over. Even though we didn't get to the city to see the kids, it was a good weekend. No rushing to get onto the next thing we had to do. I got caught up on some cleaning and tidying, groceries were purchased and some baking and other things made. Even a trip to the gym and took advantage of a hydro massage after.
Seems like weird weather is happening all over North America this weekend. Today Ontario (east) is currently getting heavily dumped on. We are another advisory and had about 2 inches of fresh powder fall and it is not pouring rain on top of all of that and our temps are supposed to drop into the -20's again...so this should make for some lovely roads. Hopefully the forecast is correct and we will be back to warmer temps again by Thursday.
The kids tested positive for covid on Friday night. They are on the mend now. A few more days, ,then they can be out in public again lol. They were luckily not too sick. It is just soo weird how it affects other differently. Hoping to video chat with gd tonight for her birthday. Not that she really knows what it is...but she definitely loves her Grammie and Pappa.
Checked on our flights. Seems they have made some changes...and now to wait and see if they change yet again. The change on the way down ( the one we were worried about has been cancelled) and we now have a very narrow window to catch our connecting flight in Toronto. Going to sit tight and watch flights. I would really hate to add another day onto our trip so that we know we will make the connection
It is so weird how it affects everyone so differently. I hope your ds starts to feel better soon.
Yikes....stay safe!!!!!
We have experienced the same thing. My sister and fil's wife (and NO she is not a step-mom) have both voiced over and over again we are crazy for traveling now. In the capacity that we work daily - and have since day 1 of this whole thing, our perception of this is different from others. It kind of falls and deaf ears
Yikes....stay safe! I seen you posting about your dh driving on less than great roads. I hope it turns around fast and that your roads and sidewalks return to non-icy state.
Those are the best days!!! I still miss the woodstove that was in the " cottage/cabin " at the family lake lot. It made going out there in the winter worth while
Sooooo cute!!!!! DD puts sweaters on the granddogs as well. Especially the smaller one...he HATES the cold. He runs out, does his business as quick as possible and back in.
Well, I should probably get started and shuffle some papers.
Have a great day everyone!
Evening check in. It has been a lazy snow day. The only thing remotely interesting I did today was add another ADR to my Disney trip. We now have Raglan Road scheduled for the night we arrive.
Yuck. I haven't measured either, but I am guessing around 4 inches here.
Hope it gets returned soon.
Wow. Any ice or were you lucky enough to just get snow?
I think dogs look cute in sweaters. One of our former clients had a raincoat for her yorkie.
Glad to hear it is not to severe for them.
Here is my driveway and street tonight. My driveway is solid ice and the street has not been scraped. Looks like I am staying home again tomorrow.

Charade all fluffy stuff but enough of it my middle DS said did feel heavy. Snowblower did it thing
so true although my earlier pooch pets would never stand for it.
not sure what that is but, sounds divine. Oh google
aw, glad to hear they are soldiering thru it well
hehe love the way u think
that is so true. What’s weird is I know of several muscle bound male weightlifters who didn’t survive it. Unvaxxed but they looked so healthy. You just never know.
it seems the little ones do tend to lose body temp quicker

I too have chubby clothes. Wearing them now, while I work off holiday weight. I usually wear them to the parks too, so that I am comfortable pigging out
The first few days of October weren't bad. I'm thinking maybe September 20-24 this year. Can't do the following week because of my anniversary.
Nobody that close to 6 foot tall fence I had installed many moons ago in back yard has paid for it’s self over many times . Do have to go out & be ready to shoo away any predators (hawks & coyotes…might be a werewolf or two lurking in the woods at this point).Who has to walk your dog outside for “doing his business” time/ needs.
waiting to see if the 5G mayhem will ensue in the next few days here.Been looking at hotel rates and possible flights that seem acceptable.
soon as the snow lifts, I plan on increasing activity level too.I will start to walk more and diet 3 months before my trips so my clothes will fit
nice trip. I’m still gunshy on the thot of cruising. Not being able to enjoy the ports of call is problematic we may first pick DCL again as at least CC is offered, barring bad weather.July trip for UO, WDW, and Disney Cruise Line.
super nice. we enjoyed their fall party but hit a surprise heat wave there late September a few years agoPlus, I might be going to Disneyland in September
haha have a theory so many big ones secretly yearn to be lap dogsSo they got him a coat and she said he had a smug look to the other dogs when she put it on him......now he loves it.
like the ring of that! Canada is in a whole other stratosphere Vs here.Not Cananda or Keisha cold.......but cold for us.
wow, secret talent there! Have never seen or tasted a fritter btw.This is Tom`s classic dish he cooks so well.
if he buys that $10 Taco Bell pass, he can go every day for a month for one of seven options. not my thing, do know many people who are planning to work itAnd so, a back to week day routine. But yay, already a Tuesday. The day Mac can do a Taco Bell run.
i wish even a couple of the onsite hotel restaurants would offer it for lunch service. prefer being in park by 3 pm for HHN nights to stake out a piece of turf to wait vs being squished in the throng. Non event nights we tend to go offsite for other dining options.Plus, it’s magical dining month, usually, and a great way to support a local charity, with a good priced meal. And last year, included some of Universal hotels’ restaurants.
Off my game today. moving slowly despite being up since 4:30 am. the mr had to head into work very early as snowflake co-workers called off for several days due to weather. He won’t be home until 8:30 pm, talk about a long day there.

Even reliable SWA now cancels flights & changes times on a regular basis. I’m seeing 5 am departures with often just one other NS when the dust settles, disappointing.

My kids hightailed it out of Erie a day early when there was a quick break in the weather yesterday. They got over 2 feet of snow. their pooch is still here, road off the highway to our house scares them in the winter.
Can’t say I blame them. Typically, will drive twice the distance myself to avoid when it snows. It’s a two lane, no street lights, with springs that cross it/forms ice easily. many hair pin turns with steep gullies, although a very picturesque drive when it’s not snowing.

That would be cool. The more I think about it, the more logical thone days seem.We`ll get to say hello then.
Don't they also usually have passholder appreciation days? I missed them by one day last year.Nice that Charade got a day arriving ADR. Yes, I find I like the last two weeks of September now. I plan to be there at that time this year. Plus, it’s magical dining month, usually, and a great way to support a local charity, with a good priced meal. And last year, included some of Universal hotels’ restaurants.
I'd be moving slowly too if I woke up at 4:30.Off my game today. moving slowly despite being up since 4:30 am.
What is the 5G mayhem?waiting to see if the 5G mayhem will ensue in the next few days here.
Pilots & a few airlines are rumbling about flight stoppages, believe it’s in two days?What is the 5G mayhem?
