@sincerely__ivy So over these people. Disney said no mask, no entry. They said they won’t go. Ok. Mission accomplished. I’m so tired of them stealimg this “my body, my choice” bs. I can’t with these people. Maybe the parks will finally be full of people who want to be there, and not entitled.

At 2pm this afternoon my beautiful mother passed away at the age of 95. We were lucky to spend 5 days with her last week and I was able to have a call with her yesterday to tell her I loved her and that she was the best mother a boy could have. I’m gutted and heartbroken.

I found out late last night that my brother Jeff passed away suddenly. He was 65. There are times I feel that I can’t breathe. They just told my mom a bit ago. I just got off the phone with her. Mothers should never out live their children. That was so hard. I’m heart broken.

When you see posts about Disney adults, how we shouldn’t love what we love, putting us down and making fun, just block, scroll past or ignore. Don’t retweet it, don’t give them clicks or additional attention. Don’t waste your time. We know who we are and we’re not ashamed.

Another thing we noticed from the weekend is the use of the word “friends” by cast members. This caught us off guard as I swear we’ve never heard (or paid attention to?) being called that by a CM. “Hello Friends, welcome!” “Hi Friends, what can I get you to drink?” Is this new?

@LissaBriana @DHSWI It’s called Mett and it’s a German and Belgium thing. Usually has lots of spices and onion. It’s not widely eaten anymore but the Midwest was settled primarily by Germans and brought the tradition with them. No I haven’t tried it. 🤣

Table behind us, the woman has massive dietary restrictions and is pissed this limited menu doesn’t accommodate her. Um, review a menu prior to coming if you can’t have nuts, dairy, gluten and meat. Chef came out for 10 min to figure out what she can eat. People are insufferable.

I wanted to thank everyone for all the kind words this past week and especially today, which I will say was really hard. The funeral was beautiful. Family and friends made it better. But I’m glad that part is behind me.
