Hi, my name is Debbie and I am a control freak!
UPDATE: This has become an ongoing thread where people can come and talk about their worries, anxiety, control issues, trip planning, holiday complaining, anything you want to vent about thread!
There is also our trip check list included in this thread.
Now back to me.....
Anyone else out there like me? I can't stand when things are out of my hands. I worry about everything too! Please join us so you don't feel alone. We can all crab about stuff together and talk to someone who understands how we feel.
WDW is kind of good for our kind. We can make reservations, look at schedules, and have a plan for the whole trip but.....
don't throw any curve balls our way like refurbishments or a bad view or God forbid someone gets sick!
We might go crazy, out of our minds, coo coo.
Because I am a control freak this also adds up to "worry freak" too.
Worrying that stuff is going to go wrong that you can't fix!
Am I alone?
Maybe we should make it our goal to compile a list that we can keep, cut, and paste, etc. that would serve as some sort of check list that leaves nothing out. I am sure someone has already done this but we could do it again....
We are crazy though so we can put EVERYTHING on ours!
I'll start and then whoever wants to add on can just copy, paste and add on then repost....
I bet we could get the ultimate list for us worrying control freaks so that nothing, I repeat nothing can go wrong....
