Fun in the Florida Sun

Real quick post here.

The weather is GORGEOUS!

We are having a BLAST!

3 more days till we're home. We'll rest then!

Love you guys. Hope all is well.

Now a preview of what you really want to see.

Almost there

Well today didn't start off all that wonderful.

I of course didn't get much sleep last night with all the excitement. So I was up pretty early and so was Calob. haha

Jacob woke up shortly after and ate breakfast right after he started throwing up. It was bad. He finally got to where he could keep some liquid down I gave him some nausea medicine and he was good to go. Phew that was close.

Richard woke up hurting. Pain patch wasn't even touching the pain.

We went and picked up the rental car this morning at 10.

2009 Ford Edge ROCKS! I now want Sirius satellite radio in my car please.

Anyhow we were on the road by noon. Rain soon there followed all the way to Atlanta.

Richard drove until we got through Atlanta and around the bypass. Then I took over so he could take some extra pain meds and rest.

We have arrived in Valdosta where we are spending the night. We have eaten dinner and had our showers. We are pooped. Time for bed.

Tomorrow Mt. Dora Florida and Birthday Dinner with loads of family. Promise to post pics then.

ACK!

Holy Moly!


Today is Thursday. THURSDAY!


We leave tomorrow.


YIPPEE!


I am sitting here while I should be getting ready for work. Not to worry, I will not be a Hot Mess.


The boys are at the table eating breakfast and singing songs.


"One more day,

Gotta get through today

Going to see Mickey

In one more day-aaaaayyyyyy"


The excitement here is something.


Richard is drinking his coffee and laughing.


Oh the fun is just beginning.


How will we ever get any sleep tonight with this kind of excitement?


Thanks so much to everybody for your tips and tricks.


Just because I thought ya'll would get a kick out of it. I tried my little motion sickness patch just to give it a try.


Needless to say I got a little disoriented. I'm better now.

I will not be using the patch while we're gone. So pray that I can hold in my breakfast.

Oh and be sure to come back later for the story of the

Disney 2001 Trip from H E Double Hockey Sticks.

Ponderings

Ok so everybody that knows me knows that I tend to over-analyze things.

I think way to much about stuff that just doesn't matter.

But it's me. Just keep reading ok.

As I know you all are tired of me talking about going to Disney you're just gonna have to get over that. All I have to do is get through today and tomorrow. ACK! I am so excited. We all are SOOOOOO EXCITED!

Now on to my questions. urgh Ponderings. yes! Ponderings.

What do I do with my camera and stuff while we ride rides? Do I just hold it and pray that it doesn't go flying away while I am on a ride going 60 miles an hour. Cause if it does I don't think yelling at the operator to STOP the ride is gonna do me much good.

Does anybody know if there is a site that gives you a listing of what is the best days to go to which park? It may be in the big book of Disney. But to just be honest here I haven't had a chance to read it much. Seems like Kat may have told me about this. Kat???? My Disney guru?

Will the Disney trolly/bus thing takes us to Universal too? Or do we have to drive there?

Does anybody know how long the battery life on a scooter is? Maybe I need to call the scooter folks.But thought I would ask you guys.

What about if it rains? There is rain on the forecast for next Wednesday & Thursday. UGH! If it rains can we use the scooter in the rain?

Snacks? Any suggestions on what is the best snacks to take? I was thinking fruit and trail mix. Ya know not a lot of sweets. Sugar overload can weigh ya down.

Do the Disney helper staff people keep an eye on your stuff while you are riding rides? Cause ya know it would not be pretty if I was to realize someone took off with the scooter and our snacks.

Maybe I'm just being paranoid. Geez somebody turn my brain off. I know we are going to have a wonderful time. I just need to learn how to relax.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Need Help for an Assignment for Jacob

Here is my SITS Give-away if your looking for it.

***** UPDATE ***** Found someone to help. Thanks again!

Now on to Jacob's Assignment.

My child is in all Honor's classes and sometime they get some weird hair brained ideas. Personally I think this is one of them. But I thought I would see if you guys can help me out.

Jacob has to interview a World War II veteran. Now grant it we could just go to the VA Hospital but seeing as how my hubby has a suppressed immune system I'd rather not.

And neither the Hubs or I come from a military family. So that's out.

He has to turn in the name of the person he will be interviewing on Thursday then his Teacher will give him the interview questions. The assignment has to be turned in on March 27th.

So here's where you come in.

I need a Veteran to be interviewed. So could you maybe ask your Grandpa or Great Grandpa if they are willing to be interviewed about WWII by a young 12 year old whipper snapper?

If so please let me know his name and rank as soon as possible in an email cferswife@gmail.com

Then once Jacob gets the interview questions I will then email them to you so that they can answer them.

Thanks whole bunches you guys.

SITS Spring Fling Give-a-way

Today is the day for some FUN with my SITSta's!

It's the SITS Spring Fling.

If you're not familiar with SITS you should go... GO NOW!

I promise you will love it. Love them. Heather and Tiffany are amazing.

So I know that most of you are not here for my rambling on's.

But that's ok I can completely respect that.

You are here to see what I am giving away. I know how this works.

Well wait no longer. Here it is folks... Made by yours truly during some of the roughest days of my life.

It's not real heavy nor is it real big. It's about average size for a throw.

Here is a close-up of the colors.

This is what I do folks. In my spare time. When I am stressed about everything going on and need something to keep me busy this is it. While Richard is at Doctor visits and we are waiting to be seen, for scans, for whatever this is what I do. I love it. Nothing but love went into this. And I probably shed quite a few tears while making it. Not to worry though I promise I didn't wipe my nose on it. Besides it's been washed.

My hobby.

Now this little give-a-way will be open till Midnight (CST)to U.S. Residents ONLY.

A winner will be picked and announced tomorrow March 11th.

So leave a comment to enter and Random generator will pick the lucky person that will receive this and quite possibly a few extra items may end up in the box along with it.

So go comment cause well that's what SITSta's do.
