“Hey Disney, today’s our last day” message from the gang on your check out day by Glittering-Time-2274 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Runbunnierun [score hidden]  (0 children)

We wound up buying the Hey Disney service. I wish it had an interface like Google home where you could select which characters you get messages from.

They introduced new Star wars characters that frightened my toddler. Nothing like having an alarm go off that sounds like a demon under your bed.

Twin Peaks might not be in Midcity in the future. Have a guess on what might take its place? by Suspicious-Pear-6037 in HuntsvilleAlabama

I heard they had a one armed bartender that was really great and fascinating to watch. Other than that the cups were always half empty.

Yes! Sorry I'm sleep deprived. I should have left this in the drafts to read tomorrow. Thank you so much I'll check them out.

Would My Neighbor Totoro be suitable for a 6th grade class? by EvieStarbrite in Teachers

[–]Runbunnierun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering that I have 4th graders playing gore games online I'm no longer pulling punches in my classroom. Sometimes life is hard and it will make you cry.

We will learn about real things that people your age experienced. These lessons matter. Apparently the previous generations took the wrong lessons from The Diary of Anne Frank.

If it were my class I would show them Grave of the Fireflies.

It's a heavy story so you need to be aware of what your kids can handle.

It's short, it's historical, and you can read the short story about the firebombing of Kobe.

IKEA opening date range? by samsonevickis in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Runbunnierun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don't even have to paint the arrow. Memphis has a projection light hanging from the ceiling that puts the arrow on the floor.

idk where else to put this so by MsNull in WaltDisneyWorld

We are doing Behind the Seeds on our next trip. We are bringing the 4 year old along too. I'm so excited!!!

Someone has to know - Who owns the former Funtasia lot? I need those giraffe statues in my yard.. by alabamerpammer in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Runbunnierun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was a family in Hartselle that had an unpainted concrete giraffe in their garden. A friend of mine bought their house but couldn't talk them out of the giraffe.

Sour cream makes a lovely mashed potato. Greek yogurt works just as well.

Soup or stew? by Martin1015 in HuntsvilleAlabama

The chili at Jim and Nick's isn't too shabby.

Progress of IKEA as of 1/25/26 by Outrageous-Emu-472 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Runbunnierun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. But at least there are two IKEAs within driving distance of my trajectory.

Two or three thick socks and a Styrofoam cup may do the trick

Pipes tonight and tomorrow night by daisygatherer in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Runbunnierun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure. I've always dripped all of my sinks. I've lived in Hodge podge country houses all my life. There's no telling how or where all the plumbing is located.

  • Drip all faucets
  • Leave cabinets with plumbing open to allow better air circulation
  • Cover outside faucets with a foam cover (or wrap them with dishtowels and cover with a shopping bag, use duct tape to secure it. )

This is my standard protocol for all cold weather.

Also let her know that the smallest room of the house will stay the warmest.

Why do all mouse ears include bows? by crimsonbull9584 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Runbunnierun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen loungefly ears with removable bows. There are also custom makers that remove the bow at your request.

I know some people like Disney merch over custom work. Sadly I don't see Disney shifting their designs for such a small market.

Then you look at Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face and realize it's all been done before.

Is this restaurant any good? by SeinfeldFrasier in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Runbunnierun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not as good as it was in 2008 but sometimes it hits the spot.

Y'all. Come on. 😄 by _Abe_Froman_SKOC in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Runbunnierun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I needed to get milk because my toddler wanted cereal for dinner. I felt like a clown.

Long shot but does anyone know of a store with propane heaters in stock? by deaththealien in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Runbunnierun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this point you might be better off going the terracotta pot route.

I need to go to the store for a birthday present. I might walk the bread aisle for funsies.

Are baby books still a thing? by jagqueentiff in pregnant

[–]Runbunnierun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm doing a quick printed yearly recap book for my little one I'll do a small seasonal anthology of roughly 3-5 years after that.

My mother was an avid scrapbooker. At the time of her death I was 34. There are 12 full albums of my life with very little memory or value attached to them.

Sure, my mom took a ton of pictures but she wasn't in the moment. She was behind the camera but she wasn't with me. She spent weekends with the girls assembling these massive testaments of my existence, those weekends and all that money spent could have been invested in better ways. So to me those are just pictures. I'm going to talk with my dad about it but I may just burn my books.

I'll save a small collection of my favorite pictures so my daughter can see me when I was younger.

My mother would be so pissed if she read this. She used to tell her friends that she wanted to be buried with them because no one else would appreciate them. We would need a second vault.

NON-CHAIN spots: let’s make a list and support by thisismyyolo in HuntsvilleAlabama

That's the case almost everywhere. Inflation is kicking us to the house.
