    SSD advice needed

    Social Security's feeling is that if you are well enough to go to school then you aren't disabled. Her lawyer should have told her that.

    Birthday at Aulani

    You can order food type items and cakes. The only gift baskets I see are for kids. I checked the whole thing top to bottom since my son is celebrating his bday while we are there. The cakes they will deliver to the room. The basic one is $27. That's the one I am going with. I would spend more...

    Cars Land & BVS - June 15th!

    Awesome. We'll be there the end of July. Most likely will be our only trip for a long time so I am glad that we won't miss it.

    The points are the same but how are the crowds

    We go to WDW the first full in December every year. I was think that this year we should push it back to the second week in December to get APs and then go in '13 the first week so that the APs cover 2 trips. We would probably throw in a June '13 trip also. We love the crowd level the first week...

    Question about Sinus Infections and Surgery

    For a couple of years after my surgery my nose would randomly start running. Usually when I was bent down to put my son in his car seat. Sometimes it would gush. When ever I lost my voice I would get a same day appt with my ent and they would stick a mirror on a stick thingy (like at the...

    Question about Sinus Infections and Surgery

    I had surgery about 7 years ago. It was the best decision ever. The ent said I must have broken my nose several times and not realized it because that was the only explaination for my right side being so small. For about 18 months I was on heavy duty abx for 2 weeks and then it would clear up...

    Crowds first week of Dec vs 2nd week

    We traditionally go to Disney the first full week in December. The crowds aren't too bad. We are thinking about changing to the second full week this year and getting APs so next year we go our normal week and our APs are still valid. DH is worried that the crowds the second week will be a lot...

    DH is leaving the fate of our trip up to DS.

    Thanks Melissa. He always wants to go to Disney. Mainly I think DH wanted to make sure he was okay with it because he recently complained about missing a field trip because of last year's trip. We told him next time he can stay home if he is concerned about that. He immediately changed his mind...

    How bad will Presidents Weekend be?

    I know it's going to be bad but how bad? Will there be park closures? We will be staying onsite. We've been to Disney a ton of times so we know what we like and don't like. No need for us to hit everything. On the 19th there are evening extra magic hours at MK. 11-2. How crowded will it be? I...

    Aulani airfare

    We booked for the very end of July from Charlotte and it was about $3300 for 3 people. We are going to LAX and staying at DL for 3 days and then Flying on to HNL. On the way home we stop in Phoenix. If we didn't stop for DL it would have been $1000 each ticket.

    DH is leaving the fate of our trip up to DS.

    DS is 9. We travel a lot and let him be involved in the planning. We let him decide where he wanted to celebrate his 10th bday. He picked Hawaii. Which was a good pick in my opinion because of Aulani. That's just how we roll. DS was super excited about going to Disney. We usually go away for a...

    DH is leaving the fate of our trip up to DS.

    It's not the going that DH minds but it's the getting there and back. We drive down at night and will be driving home on Tuesday. I promised to drive home. He doesn't mind disney, it's just the drive that bothers him. We agreed that we needed some family time and some sun. Everything else I...

    Kidani ...

    I prefer to drive. Can't remember if there are 2 bus stops or one at AKV. I really don't like disney busses though. Part of the reason we don't fly and instead drive is because we want to have a car with us.

    How Much Cushion Money?

    Bank of America did that with my debit card once. I don't think I was traveling but I know one day my card stopped working. When traveling you should always let your credit/debit card issuer know where and when you are going. I worked in credit card fraud for a couple of years and saw many...

    How Much Cushion Money?

    Do you have a credit card? If so I would bring it just in case. You never know what could happen. Car could break down. Kid could get sick.

    DH is leaving the fate of our trip up to DS.

    I'm okay with it because I'm pretty sure my son will want to go to Disney. Pretty sure his choices are going to be stay home or go to disney. What kid in their right mind chooses stay home. He has 2 days off of school so he won't be missing anything. The only way he would say no is if DH...

    Buy Here or at Disney?

    I wouldn't buy all the stuff down there. What if you couldn't find their size or there isn't anything you like? Plus the previous comment of sizing in the clothes up thread. The goggle I get at Target. They sell speedo brand and they last a good while.

    Cheapest place online to get Disney tickets?

    It will cost the same no matter which way you do it. Non exp is a flat fee no matter how many days. You would just be paying for the 6 day ne ph up front and then the difference between that and the 10 ph ne when you get there. But you would pay the gate rate on the difference. So you might save...

    How much luggage does everyone bring?

    In our house everyone gets a carry on bag. If you can't fit all your stuff in a carryon they you don't need it. Even when we drive that is our policy. Our one exception will be this summer since we are doing a 10 night trip to DL/Aulani and we need to pack snorkle gear.

    DH is leaving the fate of our trip up to DS.

    After much coaxing I finally got DH to agree to a 3 night trip over President's weekend. First he didn't want to go then he said okay to 2 nights but I said 2 nights was too short. So he finally agreed to 3 nights. I asked him if he wants to tell DS or suprise him. He said that he is going to...
