I doubt there is at this point, as well. And even if there were, with the mortgage only in HIS name, I know he would just take whatever possible settlement there might be and run.
We're trying not to anticipate *anything* but simple knowledge with the military records request. A conversation with neighbors about the VA is what finally prompted me to look through his stuff again and then make an online request for info, so the VA stuff is in my head. But really it's just the info we are after. I mean, we haven't even mentioned it to MIL. He served during WW2 and Korea, and re-upped 5 separate times, getting an Honorable Discharge certificate for 4 of those. Then there's just paperwork discussing mysterious stuff that happened at some point, which ultimately led to paperwork about him being fit for separation based on his resignation. Now it's possible that resigning (even when you've had 4 other tours of duty, at least two of which were during wartime) IS a Dishonorable discharge, but we'd like to know. And since the story he told is nearly impossible to believe to anyone outside their family (who had no choice but to believe the man of the house), knowing the "rest of the story", as told by the Navy, would be good if we can get it.

We're dealing with the mentally painful situation of having scads of Alaska miles, an AP that expires Dec 6 (well, mine does...theirs expire in Feb, the stinkers), and a yearning for a cooler-weather re-do.
But we have NO desire for Candlelight Processional.
And WORSE, today I was sitting on the couch and got the strongest urge to just be in Epcot, just right now. OH if only the transporter beam existed and I could trust it...
I've been in Epcot while CP was happening, and aside from stopping to listen in for about 5 minutes because there was amazing singing happening when we happened to be walking by, CP did not play any part whatsoever in our holiday visit last year and is a non-issue in our upcoming holiday visit (as in we will not be seeing it and I have no interest in making it important, though that may be because we are Jewish and CP seems very... non-Jewish?).
Anyway, I say go for it![]()
I have no desire to do the CP either. Queen of enablers says go for it!!
Sherry, you're cracking me up.
And it's no coincidence that my AP expires just as you're doing a do-over, since I bought my AP for your do-over PPH stay after the miserable PPH stay!
I am fairly certain that the train doesn't run while the CP is going on, but the monorail does, right? There's no issue with noise from it running through the esplanade, right? One can bypass the crowds at CP and just get to the back of the park in that way?
It is definitely not Jewish in nature, that's for sure!
At Epcot it's kind of off to the side in that amphitheater, yes? At Disneyland it's right there, smack dab in the city hall area. And this year they are doing it for many more days than they used to.
Can't get rid of this cough. It's kept me up most of the night for two nights now, despite using various things to quiet a cough. I didn't know the bags under my eyes could get any bigger yesterday, until I got up today.
I haven't had the concentration to compare prices for hotels and flights-using-miles and all that, but there's still a trip floating around in my head! Sherry if we end up there during the same time period as you, I'll be sure to see if you want to be bugged for a few minutes or so.![]()
