“This
is counting down to 4:45 am the day we leave. So, we’ll be together when it
goes off!! Woohoo! Tomorrow is 33 days!!!
Love
Anabelle”
Grandma’s answer: “You are Awesome. You are definitely a chip off the old block with a little of me in there too. OXZ”
The
Grid does not fall far from the tree.
I called
All Star Sports and found out I could call in on August 8th to
confirm room togetherness requests made on booking.
Grandma-
I think this sounds fine. Just one thing, you are calling on the 8th . That means everything will work out great.
Because My Mother – Your Grandmother will be
overseeing everything. OXZ

Astro
Orbiter closed yesterday, thank goodness it will reopen before we go. It’s a great crowd sucker to pull people out
of our way in Tomorrowland. We’re certainly not riding it.
One
Month from Today…
Stupid
o’clock in the morning will be a time of celebration!
Grandma-
“ I don’t think I’ll even sleep that
night. I’ll be too excited. OOO XXX ZZZ”
Kim-
“Same here. WooHoo!!!!!!!!!”
Me- “That's what makes the ‘Who will pass out on
which ride first’ pool so amusing!”
Anabelle-
“WOOOOOHOOOOOOOO”
The
one…ONE bad thing about leaving before Star Wars Land opens. Kylo Ren is leaving the Launch Bay and Darth
Vader is coming back on August 29th.

MagicBands Shipped!!!!
We’re
checked in. I sent Mom and Kim instructions to check in. I bet they’ll make me
do it when I see them Sunday.
[Later edit- A yup, they did.]
[Later edit- A yup, they did.]
One
Month from Today…
We'll
be watching Princesses wish Grandma a happy birthday while eating fish and potatoes in Norway.
And
probably catching our breath even though we have a Frozen FastPass+ right
before it, because no matter how hard we try, we always end up rushing to just
barely make the reservation time on this one.
This
time my money's on drying off after an unexpectedly soggy "backwards in a
boat."
[Later edit- Or squeezing in an Anna and Else meeting, we're so predictable.]

Kim’s MagicBands come!!!!
And
of course, after I sent the Grid out, some hours changed again.
One
Month from Today…
We'll
be singing along to the end of the Lion King show and dancing around Africa on
the way to the Tusker House to stuff our faces with an awesomely varied and
African infused buffet...
AND
CORN DOGS!!!!
Anabelle-
YES CORN DOGs . Hopefully no random
children throw up this time👍🏻😋
Aurora-
I agree with that statement. About the corndogs and the kid throwing up.😋
Additionally,
I couldn’t help myself and made a file of our table service menus again.
I
also tried to highlight my jokes in "bold" to make them easier to
find,
(my
jokes can be stealthy sometimes)
but
there are some non bolded ones as well.
because I did it late at night and was kind of loopy.
Anabelle-
YAYYYY THE MENU THINGGG
get
your highlighters out everyone
YEEHAW🤠
Grandma-
Sometimes, I feel I’m too compulsive.
I fixed everything so it was more connected pages and then printed them one at
a time so I could put everything on one side or 2 sides the way they fit.. I’ll bring my book
tomorrow for you to see.
Me- Nice
to know my family is just as excited, and just as obsessive as I am!

One
month from today…
We'll
be somewhere in Frontierland at the beginning of what is likely a fifteen hour
day in the Magic Kingdom...
I’m
sure we'll be fine.
Grandma-
I wonder how many places I’m going to fall asleep that day. OLD AGE is
definitely not creeping. Its running rampant OXZ
Me- Yes, but think about what a wonderfully
happy, peaceful and contented sleep it will be.
Anabelle
set up a Disney themed dinner for the family, and wrote a play the kids did about
finding Infinity Stones to save Disney World, nametags based on MagicBand
printing and an awesome Tiki Room cake.
She
also got her name on allears.net for getting the “Where in the World” correct.
The student has surpassed the master. I read it all the time but never entered.
Update
from Grandma on the menu list:
The
dining info is great. Your jokes a very funny and very apropos. I spent
the night looking at everything and boy did I get HUNGRY.
I
have picked out some very definite choices and a few double choices that I will
have to prune down when the time comes. But my mouth was watering for it
all. Thanks for giving us the heads up. It will make dining choices go
easier. I used red pens and blue pens and highlighter for the very special. OXZ
Me- Thank you, I’m sure enough will change to allow some on the fly surprise
decisions, but like you said, its all about the enjoyment of
anticipation. I know Anabelle has her highlighter ready too.
