It was not that long ago that whatever price you paid for the first day of your vacation was the daily price for the whole vacation. So you could start during low season and your vacation continued into higher season but you still paid that low season rate. That's gone too. We have a January...

My teenage grandson was at my house when my landline phone started ringing. Since he was standing near it, I asked him to answer it for me. He just stared at it and asked me "but how? How do you answer it?"

We did this in February of 2019. It's quite different from the version we did a few years ago. We went around the Magic Kingdom with a guide, stopping in various locations to solve different puzzles, and the solution to each puzzle led us to the next clue. At one point we also did the Ariel...

Thinking of you and your husband, and hoping this all turns out well.

We are going in October 2020 for eight nights, driving down and back. Right now, we have six adults and seven children - may add a few more as we get closer. One family (3 adults, 4 kids) will be staying at Fort Wilderness in their pop-up camper. The other three adults and three kids are staying...

Yes. Life is short. I've never regretted it.

I know I am getting old because more and more things irritate me. Here are a few: 1. I go grocery shopping on a Saturday morning and the store has decided this is the ideal time to restock the shelves, so you can barely get through the aisles because of the big pallets of food items being...

Animal rescue. I would love to be able to open an animal sanctuary.

I went with my daughter-in-law and granddaughter, age 6, who is a HUGE fan of the first Mary Poppins movie. She got really scared in the middle (don't want to give any spoilers, but if you have seen it you'll know what I am talking about) and wanted to leave and go home. We promised her that...

Sorry, I had to do the joke first. But I am thinking of you and hoping things continue to go well.

Luke and Obi-Wan walk into a Chinese restaurant. Ten minutes into the meal, Luke’s still having trouble with the chopsticks, dropping food everywhere. Obi-Wan finally snaps, “Use the forks, Luke.” Does that help?

I'm just back from seeing it with my granddaughter. We both loved it!!

Going back a long way, but I was really disappointed in the ending of Quantum Leap.

But even if you aren't worried about police intervening, surely anyone should be able to see that even distracting the driver WHILE GOING OVER A BRIDGE is not a good idea! Police might not respond, but gravity ALWAYS does!

I heard about this and wondered why on earth a passenger would fight with a bus driver especially when driving over a bridge! What was she thinking??

I regret not figuring out why my sister who is not speaking to me is mad at me and finding a way to be friends again.

During the Montreal Olympics in 1976, I went to one of the equestrian events. Princess Anne was riding for the UK. I had set up my chair to watch near one of the cross-country jumps (security was MUCH more relaxed in those days!) and saw her ride up to "my" jump - and she fell off! I think she...

Thank you for taking the time to update your Disboards friends. I agree with Christine that you should think about your work options - I know for my one friend who lost her son, coming back to work helped by giving her something else to focus on and because she had supportive co-workers. But...

I hired someone to clean up the dog poop in my backyard (I have two big dogs). She comes once a week and I so appreciate not having to clean it up myself. No top sheets ever: all beds have a fitted sheet and a duvet in a washable duvet cover. Having duplicates of some things: I have scissors in...

I was working at the University where my youngest son attended. On his graduation day, after the ceremony, he had to go return his cap and gown. I said I would go get my car and pick him up to take him home. Well, my usual workday routine kicked in. I got into the car, and drove home, completely...
