People get very upset when other people have access to something that they don't.
If you can, but won't, give them access to it, you are a terrible personYou have also ruined their trip & crushed their dreams.
Milk and bread both freeze great but if you lose power, and your freezer stash thaws, the milk becomes useless. I'd buy shelf-stable cartons to store and just rotate through ever so often if having milk is a priority. I grew up on the gulf coast so we prepped for hurricane season. That was before bottled water was a 'thing' so my mom always washed and filled empty milk jugs and we always had plenty of canned goods on hand. Because of that, I still keep a lot of canned goods on hand for emergencies. Sometimes that 'emergency' is just that I don't feel like going to the store! I grew up with a 'preparedness' attitude and so I still prepare (though I'm never really sure for what here in CO lol).
I haven't lurked on the Dischurners yet, but I've experienced this on this board. Some people get really bent out of shape if you're entitled to discounts that they are not. In our case, it's related to our profession. I don't understand why people can't just be happy for other people's good fortune. We all have our share of knocks in life to make up for every positive thing we get. Sometimes I think people on these boards are a little too Disney obsessed to look at things objectively.
Lol Dh is mostly only like this with Disney. He’s constantly saying he doesn’t want to go back for awhile and then suddenly he’ll say let’s go next weekend. When we planned for Japan he was just like your Dh. I mostly did all of the cc stuff and kept track. I had planned a ton of stuff before flights and even after getting our flights it took him awhile to get into the actual planning. Once he got started he loved looking for places to go and things to do.This is sooooo my DH. He’s very much an out of sight out of mind person, so he rarely understands why I’d do things like accumulate Disney GCs or bank AA miles. While on our WDW honeymoon, he was talking about where he wanted to stay when we came back again and planning to take the (now real) trip to bring our parents. A month after we got home, he was like “we’re not going back there for years, there’s no reason to.” We’ve gone three times since thenIt makes me sound like such a mean/bossy wife, but I literally just plan things and tell him we’re going and then he gets on board and ends up loving it. Like Japan he’s just kind of been going along with me talking about it, but now that I’ve actually booked a flight there he’s all of a sudden like “did you know they have owl cafes there? We should go to the Pokémon museum. I want to stay at this Robot dinosaur hotel.”
He‘s only ever mentioned a couple trips he wants to go on, one of which is Hawaii at New Years, so I’m going to make it happen.
Great! I will check Dutch Wonderland.
I think we should be okay on ice since we can plug our fridge into our generator and it has an ice maker. Dh thought he could plug the generator into the house but we might have to figure that out because we were under the impression we could do it that way and still use the a/c.
We bought a big generator so we’ll still be able to run the fridge
Cat 3 is typically something you ride out. I don't think my family evacuates for anything other than 4 or 5 (don't think they've had any 5's going in on them...). Having said that, Harvey was really bad a couple of years ago and several of my family flooded. Like water up to the roof tops! I don't even remember what the category strength ended up being when it came over them but it dumped like 55 inches of rain in 24 hours or something crazy like that. It's not always about the wind.
I think my mom & stepdad can still run their a/c with the generator but not entirely sure. They are pretty far inland but lose power very easily and for weeks when a hurricane comes through.
Soooo many acronyms!!
Sleep is overrated. I'll just run on 1 cup of coffee per hour instead
I slept about 2 hours last night

I got it this morning! Surprised to see it. Just need Toy Story for DD2 and I can be done with this nightmare.
