Hahahaha! :joyfull:

My DD and I just laughed so hard reading this! Love the correlation to the disappearing benches, :eek: want to sit...it will cost you $650. Too funny!
Not funny for by butt. I still need a bench. Disney needs to provide those along with the stupid tent's. If I had a million dollars, I won't get a very hot tent.....people don't know how silly a tent will be in the summer. Maybe a few heat stroke's will be the deciding factor. Stupid is as stupid does...lol

Yep, we think alike. We always used all of our rooms too. But shhhhh....my formal dining room it a family room-always. A better use of the space. My dining room furniture is at one end of the Great Room closest to the kitchen-the formal dining room as designed is off in another room off the opposite side of the kitchen. Figured we need the family room more than we needed a table to have its own room. Then again my formal china my Mom insisted I must have is still in its quilted zipper containers. Never used. My Mom is trying to unload her formal china on my DD. DD keeps finding reasons not to take it 'just yet.' :cyclops:
I have two sets of formal China. In the basement....I'm giving those to grandson's to sell....I've never used them I can't get the formal china use for family or friends. Seems silly to buy this junk. But, I got this Formal China from family. I think we used a couple of china cups for coffee. Didn't keep it hot...So it went to the basement!

The research of this decade is showing moderate drinking especially Tequila helps slow and also in some cases prevent dementia. Good news for @betty rose Doesn't help the liver but at least the brain might know the liver is hiccuping. :p
Thanks, I knew my former Dr. was right about tequila. My Mom was going bonkers by this time, she didn't approve liquor of any kind. I just take it day by day!

No rules for how to live our lives. Where did these silly rules come from....I wear white in the winter. I must be going to he... That was a big rule never to break!:happy: I just love breaking rules!

At least my China COULD go into the dishwasher. My Mom's which is a very popular style cannot. I use to hate to go to BIG dinners where my Mom, my MIL or my SILs would drag out their China. Needing to pitch in and wash the China, dry the China and dry the silverware, always in fear I'd break something or not dry the silver well enough. I really love Chinette.

Yea, I'm a bit flummoxed (OK, I just wanted to type "flummoxed", but, I still am ;)) by this latest move, too. So high-priced and so unattractive. :confused:
The only thing I can figure is that this is a relatively inexpensive (OK, flat-out cheapo :cyclops:) test, trying to determine if there is actually enough "demand" :rolleyes: to put in more permanent, themed, units later (for even more money)...?! o_O
I wonder what it would be like sheltering in one of those tents during one of those infamous, vicious, Central Florida summertime pop-up t-storms...?!
Actually, I don't hafta' wonder...
I remember sheltering in Innoventions during one of those on one of our early trips with the kiddos. The automatic sliding doors kept opening with people flocking in to take shelter, and every time they did, in came the wind-blown rain plus the flash and crack of the thunder and lightening right on top of us.
I kid you not, there were kiddos (and even a few adults) crying all around us.
We were OK, 'cause we're kinda' used to it (even so, it was pretty intense), but, I can't even imagine riding out one of those in a tent that I paid $650, in a WDW theme park of all places :rolleyes:, no matter how well they say it's battened down...!!! :hilarious: :cyclops:
On this decision I will call Disney bonkers. No amount of money would tempt me to do this.

Lord said to Noah there's going to be a floody-floody....

It has been pouring all day here and on and off over the weekend. The river is spilling over tonight.

We should be fine, the ground isn't frozen yet and it should end soon, it was really coming down the last 5 hours. On the upside this will be real good for the trees before the ground freezes.
I'm glad there's a silver lining but stay safe!

In my house it's Corelle. It hardly every chips or breaks and is inexpensive enough when the boys break something I don't cry

Have a great time I love a long Christmas break...so many things to do...ice skating, seeing the lights and the local parade, and going to the botanical gardens along with a hay ride...I should love winter more than I like too....But, fun over rules the cold...
We were going to take a small trip to Florida with my ex but the broken ankle sidelined us. They're still going. That's more money for us to save for a cruise next holiday. I'm thinking we'll be at the movie theater three or four times. We want to see Sing! when it comes out.
