    What does “financially stable” mean to you?

    I think we are ok. We live fairly cheaply. Do all the things we've done for years, Check sales, have no fashion sense, eat leftovers, live happy boring lives. But there is always the fear, we are only one major medical issue away from problems. We hope to die with enough in the...

    Tips/ideas for couple trip - adult with mild mobility and cognitive issues

    Yeah, I didn't think they were really for pushing around. I know that wouldn't work at all with my DH. Maybe on a super smooth floor. The iphone thing is beyond my tech range, so ok. I just know sometimes you think you are standing in the bus line for POP but really standing in line for...

    slo’s TUESDAY 4/30 poll - Whipped Cream vs Cool Whip

    I need a 99% whip cream /1 % cool whip level. We always have whip cream in the can. Never tried to make it. I buy maybe one tub a year of cool whip. When there is a pumpkin pie in the house, I like cool whip. Real whip cream melts too quickly. That's the only pie I would add a topping to.

    slo’s THURSDAY 4/25 poll - Bologna

    Ate as a kid, it was cheap. On cheap white bread, cold , I think with mayo. Haven't bought that type forever. Maybe a few time "fancier" bologna, but not the 300 slices for $2.98 type.

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    This has nothing to do with DAS nor disney. But just to say, a situation can mean 20 different outcomes or needs for 20 different people. With one of my broken ankle episodes....I went from hard cast, to air case to a laced up thing that looked like I was going figure shaking without the...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    I wonder what if the grandparents, one has DAS, brought three grandkids along. All booked into same room. Just thinking, not a case for us.

    Add one feature/change one thing from each resort to make it perfect

    BLT - have an ice machine on every floor. AKL kidani - Have an elevated walkway over the savannas to make the walk from the end of the wings to lobby shorter. Not really sure how much shorter it would be, but great for viewing if they put in lots of windows.

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    So true. Of all the iffy maybe new rules, this doesn't faze me a bit. Most people, it seems, are worried the end times allowed of DAS (none) vs Genie + ( 1 hour).

    Plantar Fasciitis

    Is this a new issue? I had a mild case for maybe 6 months. Hurt like crazy when starting to walk but then pain went away. Sit down, and start cycle over again. In my case stretching the muscles , a shoe insert and ice helped a lot. But I'd say EVC too. You walked a lot lot, sounds like...

    Tips/ideas for couple trip - adult with mild mobility and cognitive issues

    And to sound like a broken record. How about a rollator? Not as big as a wheel chair, but bigger than a cane chair. I may be reading too much into your post, but you say you feel his could take the bus back to room. Would something like an apple tag be helpful? That way you could be...

    Send email to wdw guest solutions bring back FP for onsite guests

    We have never stayed off site due to not feeling safe to drive around, but I've seen through friends or trips reports amazing places for 1/2 the price of a disney room. Back back to genie plus, we haven't used it. Due to health changes with DH, we applied for DAS. But I think it's crazy...

    slo’s MONDAY 4/22 poll - Disney Parks Dining 🍽️

    Another back in the day comment.....so 10 or so years ago...we maybe 5 TS in a week, at least one QS a day. Now maybe 2 TS in two weeks and 5 or 6 QS. The costs have gone up and food value gone down, double whammy. Last few trips we spent more and more time in resort, so just make...

    Golf Cart Rental at Fort Wilderness

    DH wouldn’t be able to climb into carriage, so not for us, but still a good suggestion.

    Unpleasant experience at BW

    They should post it on the page where you look to get your room number. We were there once with no electricity for a few hours during the night, so not that big of an issue. But if I was told no water over night, I'd be filling every cup/plastic bag/ and or tub. Like if might occur during a...

    Golf Cart Rental at Fort Wilderness

    I like the idea though. If only during the Christmas time when people put up all sorts of decorations.

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    Curious, everyone thought preselects were gone. I was thinking if the preselects were dropped and the number allowed (aside from close family) to 4 would open up enough space in lines, and not change the other rules too much. Our last trip was 2 weeks, but only 7 park days. We got...

    DAS changes coming WDW May 20/ DL June 18, 2024

    I wish we could have a tip jar for the mods. No one thought a week ago, 172 pages and after tomorrow's new info, there will probably be another 50 pages. Thank you many times for your work. May you get tons of pixie dust on each and every trip you take.

    First time to Disney as a diabetic! Also have traumatic brain injury……

    Not sure when you're going, but fan and small umbrella. Between the cement and blacktop, so much hotter than just air temp. If using scooter, bring some extra clear ponchos or huge trash bags to cover the electric parts of scooter in case of rain.
