"Q" - A to Z Challenge - Walt Disney World

"Q" is another pain to come up with ideas for, so I'm straying a bit and doing famous Disney World quotes!

I quote things allot, sometimes movies, but most things that come out of my mouth are Disney related. I'm either singing it or speaking it, but the people around me are used to it (even if they don't understand), which is why I'm doing this post! Maybe it will explain what the words that come out of my mouth actually mean!

I've already mentioned "Yo, ho, yo ho a pirates life for me, I use a knife to stir my tea". That comes from the infamous family trip of '04 and my wonderful brother-in-law! We had just ridden Pirates, and for the first time were managing to have a meal without Mr. Grumpy Pants step-dad ruining it in Cinderella's Castle at Cinderella's Royal Table. our Mother, not having a spoon on hand, used her knife to stir her tea when she sweetened it, and Matt goes to singing! It sounds silly when I type it, but it's one of the best memories from that trip and we still laugh about it!

"Bear with us till the Bear end and Bear-ral around to see us again" - Taken from Country Bear Jamboree (bet you thought I just didn't know which form of bear/bare to use, right?).

I can quote the entire speech from the Haunted Mansion's ghost host...and often do!

"you were a lovely group, the best audience ever!...now please...GET OUT! You know the drill, check for personal belongs, take small children by the hand, yada yada...". The ending of the Festival of the Lion King, Timon's final speech!

The old wake up call (that most people hated BTW) with Stitch is actually one of the ring tones on my phone as well as my alarm! "Good morning, no sleeping!"

After the hold music (which is the opening song to the Magic Kingdom, BTW), you'll hear it:


Am reminded me of one the other day..."up, up, up Chuck, up Chuck, up Chuck"...from the preshow to Muppet Vision 3D.

And the most famous quote of all - "Please stand clear of the doors - Por favor manténganse alejado de las puertas". It's on T-shirts, mugs, posters...it's the only Spanish I know!

We loved the Stitch wake-up call! We'd take turns answering each morning. I didn't even realize until this last trip that Stitch is both of my kids' favorite Disney character (that's some excellent mothering, eh?)

Oops, forgot to comment that I love the tea song your brother-in-law made up -- those random moments of silliness are the best. :)

And hooray for dumping grumpy pantses! They really know how to drag down a trip, don't they?

Happy 13th Blogoversary to the worst blogger ever!

Yep, I'm still here. This is the first time I've touched any blog in months. My focus has been in the "me" world. I have a new therapist and it's still early days, but I'm doing much better both mentally and physically. Work always sucks, so that's already a dead horse. And both pups are still hangin in there. My last post was probably the last time I stitched or at least my last Instragram post was. Maleficent still isn't framed, she's still in her ziploc baggie on the kitchen table. Bad me all around. I'm getting worse at this whole social media thing, what little I do. My job is tech burnout, so by the time I get home, the only tech I touch is my TV. The thought of creating a blog post or human communication in any way is just too much. I do have two vacations coming up, so that's exciting, right? I haven't felt like sharing, so very few people around me know about these. The first is a birthday trip to Boulder, j...

A to Z Challenge - B

PART 1 - JANE AUSTEN ALPHABET-COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BRANDON A much better hero than Edward Ferrars in my opinion PART 2 - MY DISNEY COLLECTION-BOOKS Obviously the age limit on books means very little to me: Do magazines count as books? Well, they are on the book row and they are Disney related, so there you go! There are several more shelves of these and they get more movement than anything else because their weight tends to kill bookshelves rather quickly. It helps to shuffle them around upon occasion to give the poor shelves a breather.

A to Z Reflections Post

I'm going to try not to be as wordy as previous years (but no promises). I did two challenges this year, my Jane Austen Alphabet Cross Stitch project, which is now complete: I haven't gotten it framed yet...heck, I still haven't gotten last year's framed either, so there is no telling when it will get done. Thanks to my friend Tiff for her suggestion of the blue fabric over the brown...she made the right choice I think! There is really nothing more to add on my second challenge, My Disney Collection, other than I have realized that my OCD apparently isn't strong enough to focus me in one particular direction. I like to think I have a Duck Room and a Princess/Villains room, but it's more like a Duck/Stitch/Parks room, a Mickey Bathroom, a Disney-themed kitchen, a living room filled with various objects, and a Princess and Villains bedroom. I don't think as a whole, they look so bad, it just looked a bit hoarderish when I divided them up into categori...
