And NowFor The Hard Part...


The easy part of planning this vacation is done. Making reservations and figuring out what to do each day? Piece of cake. The hard part is packing. I am not the lightest of packers, neither am I a diva who must take everything I own with me, just in case. I fall comfortably in the middle, I think. Still, trying to pack for 4-5 days in only two carry-on bags presents some challenges to me. I am treating this as a challenge and I hope to be victorious. Ooh! I think I may have to go shopping for new clothes or shoes or something for this trip! I feel better already!.

Your Dreams Come True


Just finished making the reservations for our much-needed getaway to the land of the mouse, AKA Disney World! We will be there from April 22nd to the 26th and I just can't wait! It's been almost 2 whole years (!) since my last visit and I sure do miss the place. The last time I went my soon-to-be husband was with me and he had never been there before so I showed him EVERYTHING! Since I have been there so many times, the list of things I will do on this trip will be much shorter--Splash Mountain, Expedition Everest, Kali River Rapids, a hot dog at Casey's Corner, and relaxing by the pool. Ahh, sounds like heaven!

When You Wish Upon a Star


I defy anyone to tell me how this isn't the happiest place on earth. Just you go ahead and try. Hopefully within the next few days I will know the definite travel dates, then I can really start packing! Can't wait!

Leavin, on a jet plane...


Well, not for a while, but at the moment it's all I have to look forward to. The winter doldrums have arrived and the only thing that keeps me sane is the thought of being somewhere warmer. A lot warmer. That's me in the middle window, waving to you!

A Day Early


Happy Groundhog Day! What's that? You don't celebrate Groundhog Day? I can think of no better reason, or time, for such a silly holiday. Christmas and New Year's have faded from memory, and the only thing to look forward to now is warmer weather, which seems so awfully far away. So have a little rodent-inspired celebration! Heck, there's even a movie to go along with the day, what could be better?
