Ivory Tower Squabble EST 2011. WINDMILL SURVIVOR
Open until 3 am for resort guests. She's got time.

Currently raining, so we'll save our TT DAS slot and get on the Seas.

EDIT: Got rid of TT slot in favor of Soarin'. We'll eat , maybe ride Living with the Labd, and then go.

Hope you got on. She did pretty well at the MK today and was going back tonight. She has visited many times but don't really know the ins and outs of Disney. My DD had to educate her on MME & FP+ along with the MB over the last few months. Had zip clue.

Yesterdays funny texts were, Did you see EO? No. You didn't miss anything, wierd. We never go to the WS at Epcot 'cause there is nothing back there to do.

Today they were dealing with auto texts for broken attractions scheduled for FP+ Splash Mountain down, so we will wait to see which of the places they offered that we want to go. We went on Stitch. Did you go on Stitch? No.
It made Captain EO look good.

When the kids were younger, we used to keep them out of school for the first partial week of class, and traditionally vacationed the week before and week after Labour Day. It was like night and day.

Now that we don't take Beavis and Butthead, we go in either October or November.

Case in point, this year. 11/1 - 11/11. Still hoping to meet up with a fellow Sageteer.
Beavis and Butthead. Nice. :D

My parents' anniversary is in Sept., so they went then as part of their anniversary for 9 years. Then I was born and along for the ride. We added a winter trip after my parents bought into DVC in '98. After I started school, the trip got moved to August. This is just a quick trip after Hilton Head which we've done several times. We go home Wednesday. But we'll be back in 6 weeks.

We ended up just hitting Soarin' and SE and Living with the Land. Then we went to MK. We're leaving now.

Anyway, finally got my suit..
but I had more issues there.

I had my mother accompany me to give her OK on the visuals.(she also wanted the excuse to go shopping to the store lol).
Anyway, they gave me the new "fixed" suit and I proceeded to test it. ( A lot of people just pick up the suit and leave, not re-testing it.. .which is a big mistake) because: The jacket of the suit was NOT FITTING WELL.
(Note that I tested the full set before buying it and send it to get modified for my size.)

But when I tested it fully, I noticed I could not raise my hands.. they claimed they would never touch the jacket main body.. only touched up the cuff links area of the jacket.. and I said BS. the jacket was too short for the arms as well.
I say BS because the thing had something near the armpit seams that made it too tight!
I am the one testing the suit and it felt NOTHING like the original one I tested a week ago.

My mother took the side of the tailor and insisted that I was mistaken.. I had to stand my ground. I kept repeating that I was not mistaken.. the feel of the modified jacked was completely different from what I had tested( I could no longer raise my arms!)
After a few 10 or 15 minutes of back and fort and insisting that the Jacked was different...
The original vendor who sold me the first jacked ( and a secondary vendor) suggested and agreed to test a normal unmodified jacket with the same size.. and go figure.. it did fit perfectly and I could raise the arms fully. The flaw was in the modified jacket.

Once everyone seen how I could raise my hands perfectly fine with the unmodified jacket and couldn't even lift the arms above my chest with the unmodified one; Mother finally took my side.
The tailor still tried to defend her work, claiming she didn't touch anything else than the cufflink area of the jacket suit.

So something of these two happened:
  • she(the tailor) DID change and modify the jacket too much.
  • someone changed the perfectly fine jacket to a jacket with fabrication flaws(the one they were trying to shove to me).
Anyway, I took the new unmodified jacket and everything is as well.

You wonder why I am riled about this.. There is a reason:
As soon you leave the store with the formal suit.. the store no longer accepts refunds or changes. So if you accepted a damaged suit or an altered suit without testing it.. you're on your own!

Once its out, You cannot complain and any changes will be charged with full cost ( a few hundreds for sure).
So, the pressure by the tailor, to shove the flawed jacket as fast she could, was very suspicious. Thanks god the original vendor was not like that and suggested to try another jacket.


and that is the adventure of today!

(edited for clarity)

I don't miss retail. At all.

*Eats a dozen for breakfast*
I'll admit it - I ate 2.

Funny story. I usually give Mom a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast (doctor's orders) with some sliced bananas on a plate on the side with her pills for the day. This morning I replaced the bananas with a muffin to surprise her. She looked at the oatmeal and said "I don't think I can finish all this" and grabbed the muffin. DH wrestled it out of her hands and explained the concept of dessert...;)

Nope! @PUSH is telling the truth when he says we like to have bonfires in Wisconsin! Here's one of ours from last summer! We have to notify the fire department before we light them off. View attachment 57023
Yes, the flames are about 30' high! Now that's a fire!!! :D
Ummm yeah, never said PUSH was lying. I live in the middle of country farmland. I totally know what he's talking about.
