Waiting, waiting and waiting some more.


It’s almost been six months and there’s only a few (that I know of) that are still on the waitlist L as positive as I’m trying to be it is so hard because I’m going through a stage where I just don’t think it is going to happen anymore. Waiting sucks when you don't know what you are waiting for.



A girl from the wait list emailed Yummy to enquire when we would get an update regarding places etc and she was told that Disney normally give out dates in June. June came and went so someone else emailed and was told end of August so I've been trying to think positive by using milestones in this year as check points, for example first it was 'I will have a date by my birthday' (25th August) and that passed so then I was like 'Well maybe by John's birthday' (7th September) and then I said to myself 'Right it's going to happen by the time I go back to work after my two weeks mandatory A/L' but as that is technically tomorrow now (can't sleep so have ended up very late night blogging) I think there is more chance of Mickey actually coming and piggy packing me all the way to Florida haha! The thing is I get that it's hard for Yummy too because they rely on Disney to give them timeframes so they have no control if that timeframe is kept to or not, so I've not wanted to email and keep on at them & am trying to wait patiently :)

There has been some very good news though :) on Monday 2 girls were offered dates starting in January and April 2014- they both really deserve it and I'm so happy for them :) Being on the waitlist is so hard and you can't help but wonder if it ever will happen but at the same time I realise how lucky I am to even be in this position. 

People tell you not to put your life on hold but I can't help but do that as I don't want to spend any of my savings in case I do get that special call but this doesn't mean I've quite got over the fact I've missed out on a trip to Disney this year because of saving so I'm feeling a bit Sebastian toward the CRP right now ;)
