Guest guest Posted January 11, 2002 Report Share Posted January 11, 2002 Hi Sue: I am new here on the list. > Howdy everyone! I'm back from Disney and have just a few minutes to check > in. I'll write my detailed marathon diary in a few days... Disney Marathon, that sounds cool. It reminds me of the Avon 3-Day Breast Cancer walk I did in 2000. The goal was to walk 60 miles in 3 days. I was also pulled at mile 6 & bused to the lunch area. After lunch I couldn't walk any farther because I was having back problems from walking so differently because of the blisters on my feet. So I went to camp early & set up my tent & took a nice long shower. Good thing because there was a tornado warning & we had to move. But that is a different story. I am proud of you for accomplishing this & doing your best. It takes guts to enter something like that when you are overweight. I know it almost killed me, I did the walk alone so I wasn't with anyone for support. When I did migle with other fell walkers, they seemed to be " skinny minnies " & were speed walking & I just feel behind. But doing it was a great experience. I wanted to do it this year but I don't have the money & it is too late to start fundraising now. Currently I need to start thinking about me first. That was my problem before, I put everyone & everything first & completely forgot about me. So once I come down in size I might join the walk again.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2002 Report Share Posted January 11, 2002 Thanks Kimee! I started my first marathon in order to put " me " at the top of the priority list. And then I fell into the same trap of giving more than I was getting! Now, I'm trying to pull back and concentrate on myself and my family (hubby) for a bit...

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 Hey Everyone, We got back from our Disney vacation last night. We had an AWESOME time. We got to meet and her 2 sons (Dakota and Tanner) got Abby to go on " grown up " rides, that I originally thought Abby would never go on. Due to the fact that I thought they would be to over stimulating and in turn scare the bee-geezus out of Abby. Such as, Big Mountain Railroad, Splash Mountain, Test Track, Soarin',and Mission Space. I might be missing some others. When the rides were over, Abby would say, " Lets try it again " . It was so funny and cute. My husband Steve and I were floored at her enthusiastic responce to the rides. Another thing that we all noticed was how Abby took to , like was an Aunt to Abby, that Abby had known all her life. And Tanner took to Steve the same way. As if the kids knew the other parent had experience, knowledge and passion for who they are, and what they are. It was very interesting to watchHurleyLuva999 this connection unfold. Ahhh the magic of Disney, (haha) As far as Abby's speech, we see a difference. She is saying words and expressions that we never heard her say before. For example, when we were driving, my husband said, I'm hungry! My daughter Alyssa said, " Me too " Abby then said, " ME THREE!!! " We all were in shock and laughed at the " joke " she made. Her behaviors were deffinitely off during our vacation. She has been very hyper,aggressive, and in need of something. Well, unfortunately, I realized that I had forgotten her fish oils. Luckily when we met w/ she brought us some for Abby. She is better today finally. However sitting in a car for 16 hours will make any child a little punchy. All in all, the kids had a great time! So more Disney trips are in our near future.
