Morning Steph - how are you this morning? Just catching up from last night, lots of Deathly Hallows talk and AI stuff.
I'm calling Disney this morning...want to switch my July trip to all four days on property.
Great idea! Were you planning on renting a car?

I'm good...ready for the weekend. :rolleyes: My little brother has his first day of competition at Epcot today :)

Yes, I need to rent one, but I was going to talk to Disney about that. I would prefer using ME to get to/from the airport. I know that you can rent cars through the car care center, I just don't know how that would work. So, we'll see.

Oops, forgot to add I hope your brother has tons of fun while he's down there.

Interesting, I didn't know you could do that either. Where is the conference going to be? And is it for the entire time you're there, or do you have extra days?

Thanks, he was really excited. He hasn't been there since the last summer I worked there, which was 98...he was only 6! I was teasing him because he got completely freaked out that trip by Delta Dreamflight (used to be where Buzz Lightyear is now) and threw a HUGE, gargantuan fit when we got off of it. It's become one of those infamous stories in my family. :lol: He was actually a little bummed that it's no longer there because he wanted to go on it again to see what all of the fuss was about.

The conference is at the Gaylord Palms resort off of Osceola Parkway. It's about 5 minutes from Disney property, or so they say. The conference itself is scheduled for Thurs - Sat. I am thinking of going for at least two of three sessions/day Thurs and Friday and going through all the exhibits. I may go again Sat morning, I'll just have to see. I'm still waiting on a more specific schedule, as to what the sessions will be. They were supposed to have those up on their website in Feb. :( I've got a two day after 2pm ticket for Disney, and I might purchase a third full day ticket after I get there for Saturday. :shrug: I fly down Wed, and fly home Sunday morning.

Wow, there's been a lot that's changed since your brother was there. I'm sure he's excited! And don't we all have those infamous stories that our families love to tell? Over...and over...and over....:rolleyes: :lol:

Need my shower, then I'm calling Disney...be back later. :wave:

Oh. Yeah, you'll definately need a rental then. But if you rent it on property, it may be easier to only have it for the days you need it. And you don't have to worry about picking up your luggage, or waiting to check it in at the airport if you're able to us ME.

:wave:Bye!

Prayers needed....my co-worker's 1 week old baby girl is going to be having heart surgery sometime in the coming days. :( She has a coarticulation of the aorta and something that closes around a week old closed improperly so that her heart and whole body was shutting down. She also has a little hole in her heart, but I guess that is less serious and more common, often those holes close on their own.

Thanks girls. So scary, because the baby has been fine and had no problems since they brought her home and had just had a great check-up w/ the doctor. Luckily her instincts kicked in and she realized she wasn't acting normal, after only 1 week of being a mom, and she got her in in time.


Hey, can someone post the linky for Dana's TR? I can't find that forum :o

Hello! :)


Katy! how have things been going...? :kiss: Is the dust starting to settle a little?

I guess a little bit, as far as people talking goes. I am going home on Saturday until Tuesday. His sentencing is Tuesday and as far as I know he goes to jail right after that.
On Sunday a lady from our church is having a get together for anyone who supports him. We are just going to have a meal and pray and just be together. My brother's wife opened up an account that my mother and her mother have access to. Several people have made donations to them to help with the cost of the jail. It is $35 a day to be in jail and they want the money 30 days after he gets out next year. Some people have offered to pay a little bit each month, some have just given a generous donation. It is amazing to me and I am so grateful. I am going to send her a monthly amount to try and help. Money is tight right now but I am going to give all that I can.
I am sure there will be another article in the paper after his sentencing. Not something I am looking forward to.
My work would only cover me until Tuesday. So basically I have to watch him go to jail on Tues. then drive 3 hours back home and go to work the next morning. Not what I wanted to do but I took the time I could get.
Thanks for thinking of me. I won't be around Saturday - Tues but I will be back Wednesday and will give you all an update.

Katy, you'll be in my prayers this weekend, no doubt about it. :kiss: And it must be wonderful to see that there ARE supporters of your family out there. :o We love you Katy.
