10 days for us. We did 7 on our first trip and realized that it wasn't enough, so the next three were 10. We go off property a couple of times during the 10 days and spend a day at the waterparks, so it works out perfect for us. Plus, we drive down from Canada and after making that long drive...

I'll trade ya's...I've got 764 :(

31 up here in my neck of the woods and the ground is covered again (finally had melted away earlier in the week) thanks to a system that came through last night. Last year at this time I went out golfing twice with my buddies thanks to a mild spell on our March/Spring Break. REALLY getting sick...

Awww, thank you very much, Deb! I'm hoping that as well. Heck, hopefully we'll all be around for another 50 or so years! :D Have a great weekend!

Glad it was just the one and that they were able to clear it up for you. Scary that it can just creep up on your like that. I was eating way too many processed foods and my stress level has been through the roof the past year. I think if I can get them under control and try to eliminate them...

Thanks, Figgy! :)

Thank you very much, brinneydee. Sorry to hear about your father and I truly hope he is doing okay now. I've been through 3 with my father and know how scary it can be on family members. I am glad to say that I am feeling pretty good and have started walking again to get back into shape. My wife...

Oh man...did you ever find out what caused it, Steve? To have a massive one like that at 40 when it sounds like you were pretty healthy and exercised and watched what you ate before it happened is scary!! Does heart disease run in your family, like it does mine? REALLY glad that you listened to...

We usually pull into the Pop Century around 1pm or so, check-in and then throw our stuff in the room before taking a quick stroll around the Pop grounds. After that, we usually head to DTD for the night and then head back to our rooms to get a good night sleep so that we can wake up and hit the...

So I decided to pop in and finally check out your inspiring thread (and to thank you all for the pixie dust), Figgy. I have to say I am pretty impressed with what you have going on here. This was a really good idea for a thread. It's funny how something like a WDW vacation can motivate people to...

Here's what we usually do while down there, hatter, and I honestly can't see us having to change too much really even after my recent heart scare. We drive down from Canada and always stop at a grocery store near WDW either just before we get there or after we've checked in at our resort (Pop...

Thanks! And you are right...it never hurts to ask for a second opinion if you aren't happy with the first diagnosis, that's for sure. Better to be safe than sorry. Thank you, will do, and can't wait!! Thank you, and I know what you are saying. I usually stress about the smallest things to...

Thank you very much! I like your idea about the treats too. I think/hope I can stay true to whatever diet I am on for meals when we do go, it's the treats that are the hard part! I usually fancy a Dole Whip float or two over our 10 day trips and maybe one or two Mickey Premium Ice Cream bars, so...

Thank you very much, ladies! Agree that WDW is the best medicine to help, bethymouse! Sorry to hear about your dad's heart issues. Hope he is well. Sounds like he has the whole vacation thing down now though. Only wish we were going down sooner. But at least it gives us something to look...

Good for your husband and mother on the smoking front! I WISH that my dad would quit, and he did try to once, but with my mom being a heavy smoker as well, it was too hard for him to keep it up. He is turning 70 this year and smokes more now than ever. The weird thing is his brother and sister...

I'm hoping that I'll be able to stay committed to this healthier way of eating too. So far, so good...but it's only been a few weeks. My wife and I are hoping to make an appointment with a dietician so that we can discuss what type of diet would best suit the situation. I'm just going with...

Glad to hear that the meds got your blood pressure and cholesterol under control. I, too, am on pills for those two things now, along with an 81mg aspirin a day. Just taking a bit of getting used to considering I never took pills for anything before all of this happened. But they seem to be...

Hope you get well soon, hatter!

Awww, thanks Figgy! Will have to check out that other thread, for sure!

Glad to hear your father pulled through everything okay and is healthy today!
