We've been back a little over a week and I'm still adjusting back to the "real" world after another magical Disney trip. It's always a bit of a let down. The cold Maine weather certainly isn't helping things! I'm getting back into a normal sleeping pattern after that crazy race schedule. Things are settling down. But I'm looking forward to our next trip! I've decided that the best cure for what ails me is to keep the Disney magic alive!
The first Disney thing I did upon our return was to eat the Minnie Mouse candy apple we bought on our last day. I've brought home an apple a few times now, and I think it's something I'm going to continue to do. It's nice to have a little piece of Disney World magic to enjoy at home! Plus, they're delicious!!!
I've been learning a lot at my new chiropractic job. I have training this weekend and I'm excited to learn more! I think I'll feel more confident once I learn more terminology. Walt Disney loved to move forward, pave new paths and to learn new things. I'm definitely stepping out of my design oriented comfort zone, but I'm enjoying it!
Speaking of jobs, my travel agent job is going really well too! With all of the excitement for our trip I haven't had a chance to make the big announcement: I am excited to announce that Key to the World Travel is now An Authorized Disney Vacation Planner! We were given this special designation by Disney Destinations as a result of our ongoing commitment to planning customized, magical trips to Walt Disney World Resort, Disneyland Resort and Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa, vacations on board Disney Cruise Line and incredible journeys with Adventures by Disney. This is so exciting for our company and I'm really looking forward to what's in store for us in 2015!
When I haven't been working, I've been going to the craft stores to get supplies for Happily Ever Hatter. (I've had to get supplies for current orders and new designs.) If there's anything I can count on, it's that I'm going to come back from Walt Disney World with more design ideas. I sense a lot of design work in my future!
One perk of going to all of the craft stores is that I can also check out the Disney stuff. We've had a few finds over the past few days! I found a Disney Guess Who Game on sale at ACMoore. It was on sale for $4.99 (from $6.99). Then, we had a coupon and we got it for another 20% off! Woo!!!
The other night, I found a Thomas Kinkade Disney Calendar while Eliot was at Staples printing something for his Etsy business- Snowblade Creations. I've been looking for the perfect 2015 calendar and I finally found one!

My favorite find was the Disney Holiday Scrapbook Paper Stacks I found at JoAnn Fabric and Crafts. I'd heard about these paper stacks though my Disney Scrapbook group on Facebook but I haven't been able to find them. Our store finally got their shipment! I found them this week and luckily all scrapbook papers are currently 40% off! I threw my willpower out the window and completely caved getting the 12" x 12" and 8" x 8" paper stacks. (My Disney holiday addiction is in a happy place right now.)
Finally, I can't forget the news that's rocking all of New England! Our beloved Patriots are going to the SuperBowl again! Yay! I've always been a huge Pats fan. I follow football more closely than the Celtics playing basketball or the Red Sox with baseball. The only reason I'm somewhat up on the Bruins is because Eliot's a huge hockey fan. (Even then I know more about his team- the San Jose Sharks.) The Pats and football are my territory. I'm pretty excited for the big game in a week! That'll definitely give me something else to look forward to.
Things are really looking up! I think I'll be able to rid myself of the post Walt Disney World trip blues. All it takes is a little bit of faith, trust and pixie dust!!! °o°
