It is good to have goals ;) Could I recommend a Peace Lily. If there is a way to kill one, I've yet to find it. Seriously though, It is funny how difficult it is to find like-minded folks. We were at supper with two other CF couples & were talking about how all the couples had met, and...

Disneyland has some great restaurants from what I'm told. I totally agree, how can you sit & really enjoy a nice meal & a good bottle of wine with kids there? Our next trip will be to WDW and Victoria & Albert's is top on the 'to-do' list. I'd love to go all out & do the Chef's table with...

That doesn't surprise me. I also don't see how, between unemployment, underemployment, stagnant wages & the erosion of benefits how those kids will ever really be able to own a home, a nice new car, or retire in their lifetime? The idea of them having time for luxuries & hobbies.... not...

That was not a factor in our decision to never have children, but i agree 110% with that. When I see what is going on in the world (unemployment, violence, overcrowding, lack of access to good healthcare, cost of schooling, etc) I'm so grateful we aren't having kids. I honestly believe...

That wasn't our reason for making the CF decision, but I have to say the more I hear people talk about the stuff going on at schools, college costs, unemployment for college grads and the challenges ahead for kids I am so grateful we don't have them. I honestly believe my nieces & nephews...

That is so true (crazy or not). I totally see things from my grandparents in my Mom, which I then see in how my siblings & I behave. I hate it when I catch myself saying/thinking certain things. But after a couple decades of that, it becomes ingrained in you.

Maybe instead of doing a new thread each month do one each quarter or twice a year. There are fewer freebies out there so may not need a new thread as often.

We love having sit down meals in Epcot & actually being able to talk to the servers about their home & the food we are trying. Always interesting & easy to do with a party of 2 adults. We also find last minute tables are easy to get with a party of two. And many places have bars you can eat...

Where are you staying? You are right, some of the resorts are attractions! Animal Kingdom Lodge, The Poly, etc. Each has so much going on with tours and the grounds & the pools that scheduling a day to just hang at the resort is really worth it. And if you are there for 5 days or more...

It is true... you do see a lot of miserable people @ WDW. I'll confess we had one rough trip - trying to do it command almost killed us. Up early, go go go, late to bed, eat on the run, hit every show & every headliner ride. Had to get our monies worth out of it. Then I got the best...

Wasn't it Dear Abby? Or Ann Landers? Who did a readers poll some years back & something like 20% of the people who responded said given the chance to do it again they would have kids?

Next time your sister tells you you are selfish drop this one on her... "Was Mother Teresa any less compassionate because she never passed a mucous plug? Is Oprah's empire any less because she never soothed a newborn through colic or argued with a teenager about poor life choices? "...

For a long time that was a big sticking point w/my Mom. I was lucky because one day my Dad sat her down & explained if she kept on going she was going to drive her daughter away. Evidently it sank in, now we just don't touch the subject much. Until that point, the more she harped the more I...

We are in our 40's now & find that some of our friends who did have kids are now getting to the point where the kids are old enough/out of the house that we are reconnecting, so while it will be a long time, stay in touch if you really want to because eventually the kids grow up & you can...

The tips have been out of the Dining Plan a few years now, I doubt that will be put back. It is too bad. I don't think people are stiffing their servers on purpose, I think they just don't realize it isn't built in. Just like they don't always realize not all menu options are included...

WDW really messed up Le Cellier unfortunately. It really did used to be a gem! Good food, great staff. Once management figured out how popular it was they kept tweaking & changing stuff until they messed it all up. It certainly isn't worth the price (OOP or Dining Plan) any more. As...

If you have found a good place that he likes & is comfortable with then I don't see any issue w/kenneling. You have to do what is best for them.

Amazing how much we miss them, isn't it? I usually need the first 2 or 3 days of vacation to get over worring that they are okay w/out us (despite the fact we have a fantastic cat sitter who I think they like more than they like us).

Congrats on your anniversary & Happy Birthday! It is always so much fun to celebrate @ WDW. They really know how to make things special. pixiedust:
