    Carousel of Progress

    My "kids" (28,24,20) do this every time, come ride with us! Usually everyone in the theater (all 12 of them ;) ) joins in. This is really one of my favorites but not so much my family's...last time we were there I was so beat and ended up sleeping through it. When it was over, no one was...

    Anyone have or heard of someone who has POTS syndrome?

    My niece has (had?) this, seems to have thankfully at 22 "outgrown" it for the most part. We also have a family friend whose 17 year old has been fighting this for a couple years. She also seems to be getting past it, so I don't know if it's something more likely to strike teens and get better...

    Ladies...I need some info please.

    I think everyone here has pretty well described the range of experiences you might have. One thing to add: take a couple ibuprofen or acetaminophen about an hour prior to your procedure. Will help with any pain!

    Family Reunions

    DH and I planned one about 10 years ago and it was such a blast! It was the first one ever. We chose a spot that was as equidistant as we could make it then scoped it out one weekend. Picked a hotel, got bulk rates, found a local park for the picnic, and figured out carry-out food. Since...

    spoiler warning. .. Downton Abby

    Perfect! :thumbsup2:lmao: Unlike some of you I had NO CLUE this was coming! And I am plain irritated instead of sad! Seems like a cheesy move, just a lazy way to turn the plot. More like a soap opera kind of thing. I have really enjoyed this series but I am done! I watch TV to escape a...

    Sausage bread?

    I'm not sure what you mean by sausage bread, but I've made something like that before and everyone loves it. You just take a loaf of frozen bread dough and let it thaw. Then roll it out, sprinkle cooked sausage on top (extra easy now that they make those already cooked sausage crumbles!), then...

    What Are Your Plans for Thanksgiving?

    We usually spend Thanksgiving with my sister and her family. They lost their teen daughter on Easter so we are struggling to figure out exactly what to do. Someone offered them a vacation home in WV so we will join them there. I still don't know if my sister wants to do a traditional dinner...

    Downton Abbey

    I did a month trial with Netflix streaming and watched the first season on the Wii...I think you can do it with any gaming system? Then I did the week free trial of HuluPlus to watch the second season. You just have to have a block of time to fit in all 9 episodes in a week! :rotfl:

    Animal rescue????

    Like so much on the DIS, it's based on what's familiar to you. Where I live, there are NO fenced yards (except for electric ones). If your dog needs to go out you either take it out or walk it. We have an electric fence and we let our dogs out as needed. They are never out alone more than...

    Is this "bullying"?

    My sweet 15 yr old niece hung herself a few months back due to bullying. SHE was bullied. This situation makes a mockery of real bullying issues. Oldest DD is a varsity coach at the local high school and we have been horrified at the issues some parents take to the board...and have often...

    co-worker had miscarraige

    Wow is that ever the truth! Just want to stick up for the "yellow sunshine" bag a little...if that were given to me I'd hope I could accept it in the manner it was offered, as just a kindness freely given, someone trying to make things better. I wouldn't care if it was "appropriate" or not...

    Alzheimer's has taken my Mom

    Jacke, I remember your Nov trip with your mom because we were there at the same time, staying at the Boardwalk concierge as were you. Wish we could have met! Also stuck in my mind because we went through this with Dad and it was so difficult. Now we are facing the same thing with Mom and my...

    Alcohol in Grocery Stores-Gas Stations

    We must really be in the minority because you can only get beer, wine, or liquor at a liquor store, which are private. None whatsoever in the grocery store, gas stations, or convenience stores. We only recently (within the last few years) have had liquor stores open on a Sunday in our...

    When will it stop?

    I'm sorry your family had to go through this and glad you still have your DD. Hope she is doing well! :hug: Our family was not quite as lucky. My darling, sweet 15 yr. old niece hung herself on Easter morning. She was like another DD of mine and I can't begin to express the pain involved...

    Disney Debt

    Huh. I just cashed in two months worth of reward points on my credit card for $200. It usually takes me a little longer but this new credit card has 5% back so it adds up amazingly fast. It's literally free money. I don't use my debit card at all unless it's to withdraw cash once in a blue...

    The crazy people are here

    DD teaches in Frederick Co and while the schools are closed for the kids, teachers are still working. I'm a little concerned for her, especially since her school is very near Ft. Detrick. We love Catoctin and often enjoy a leisurely ride through the woods past Camp David. Bet we can't do...

    anyone grow apple trees in their yard?

    Oh my gosh, what memories you've stirred up for me! I grew up in a neighborhood called The Orchards because, well, it was an orchard prior to being a neighborhood! :lmao: Most of the neighbors cut theirs down but we kept five and I hated summer with all the apples! We had to pick up every day...
