Yeah Squirlz, I was playing on the hotel website to see if I really wanted to pull the trigger on October. So far, with those prices, no. But then I got that 10 percent email too. Sent me to a stay I was looking at for Miami last year. Clearly they don't care. I have had my AP for several years, I vaguely remember getting snail mail asking me to renew last year. I have always called to renew. I remember my expiration date though, I had got it on my birthday.
MonyK, Disney charging for parking may very well put me off site. I like to drive to all the parks except MK. While Shades also charges for parking, their fee is much less, as are their room charges. I always thought parking costs were part of the cost, as are the bus costs, of the room. I doubt they will reduce any of the room cost, and people will still bring their overnight cars. More money in fees does not sit well with me. I guess they figure Universal does it too, though Universal does not own its parking lots. I bet the car care center and limo/taxi services may see more business, and I wonder how much it will effect the airport car rental. It also makes it costly for the area locals, or those who choose to drive to save.
MonyK, wow, that is good news. So nice you will get a chance to see her while in Florida.
Keisha, that is a big TV. Yeah, I am not good with those remote for those fancy TVs. I usually ask the kids, they are quick to learn them. Yeah, tulips and daffodils are the only 2 bulbs that have survived. Critters have ate all my other bulbs, and I had some really pretty ones too.
And man, I hope that was not a black cat that I almost hit this morning. Out of the corner of my eye, I see something long and black, or maybe not totally black, run across the street in front of me. While it was very dark (thank you clouds), there was not much traffic in that part of town, so I swerved, and did not hit it. Sigh, almost as bad as the car without its lights on, that got blinked at several times, but did not put on its lights. When so dark, even the blue car it was, was hard to see.
Sick bay alert. Both kids have launched their lunches. 3:30am yesterday, little one told me she threw up in the bathroom. 5 am today, older one told me he threw up in his bed. Sigh, early morning clean ups. Good thing older one is not going to school today. He can put his bedding in the dryer. DH did not feel well Monday, so am crossing fingers and toes, and washing my hands much more, so I don't get whatever they got. I think at least it was a 24 hour bug. Little one did go to school yesterday, and did not bring up anything else yesterday. She fell asleep around 4pm and woke up around 10:30pm, to eat dinner. No matter, there was dinner left over, as I knew DH would be hungry when he came home last night, as he also went to bed early Monday night, and came home so late yesterday, he went straight to bed.
Schumi is probably enjoying her stay and the Sunshine, so wishing them beautiful weather and fun in the parks.
With that, time for tea. And a Thursday reminder.
and
with a cat funny to end:
- think that may have been one of Mac's cats, after getting her up for a morning snack.
LOL
