+! @GTVCRUISER

Happy Birthday @JazzyV to your BFF 🍰🥳 I hope he's making good progress w/full recovery in sight. And hope PCP is able to quickly sort out your issues.🤕

@Seasick Sailor 🙏 for continued good recovery for your sister. @kazu good to hear from you; 🤞 and 🙏 you get better sleep and feel better as the days progress; please reach out to your care team sooner than later if your condition warrants it - we (including Ivan) need you healthy. @Nickelpenny the hutch looks great! My morning is not going well 🤨 - Rec'd a call from PT that I missed my appt - alarm didn't go off. Then rec'd a text from ATT they had detected an issue w/my internet service and were troubleshooting. Then rec'd a call from Oncore (electric provider) they are working on restoring service to my area and to call them back if it's not on in 2 hours. I wasn't even aware I didn't have power - I only turn the lights on when it gets dark, don't have TV on during work hours, only look at computer battery when the screen goes dark, and it hasn't gotten hot enough for the a/c to kick on, so I just didn't know 🫣Who knew internet and electric providers monitored services and reached out directly to customers when they detected issues? 🤷‍♀️ But now the I know, I want my power back, lol.

Happy Birthday @NextOne to your DS 🍰🥳

We've been in 5185 a couple times and consider it the best of the best. The balcony is much deeper than on other decks - these compare it to deck 4. You'll have plenty of room for eating and wildlife watching. We like 5185 because it's center aft, so you get a full view left and right.

@Heartgrove you cruise MSC, correct? If so, may I bother you with a few questions?

Yes still 60 days so long as it's outside final payment. You do need the form, cannot be done via phone call.

Splenda was available on NS Nov/Dec '23 on the Rome->FLL TA.

I'm sure not asking for flooding, but I'd gladly accept the rain if you'd kindly send it our way when you're done with it. What we've gotten is really no more than spittle (maybe 1/4") and certainly will not make a dent in the cracks 🫠 Glad it looked worse than it was and you did not have damage. ⛈️

I agree @Cruising-along the weather apps are easily confused. I'm listening to rain right now, but this is what Mr Weather says; maybe the little guy has his mask too high & it's covering his eyes🤷‍♀️ And rain start time has been pushed back to 2pm 🙄 Your flower and beach pictures are beautiful - thanks for sharing.

Welcome home @StLouisCruisers - glad you made it safely after driving 🚗 for a very long night. You may just be getting close, but you'll make it 😎 Happy we're sending @St Pete Cruiser off instead of bringing them home. Hope your cruise is super wonderful after what it took to get you there. Thank you @Heartgrove for your dedication to our freedom. Safe travels @aliaschief. We got a little rain last night. Just as I was taking a screenshot of the weather, it changed from "light rain" to "cloudy" and the person put her umbrella 🌂 away. Rain predicted to start again around 1pm. Prayers 🙏 and positive thoughts for all.

Your pictures are lovely - have a wonderful cruise!

Happy Birthday 🍰 @Sharon in AZ to your DH 🥳

This is why we go to Turks

Glad to hear you made it to Bar Harbor - one step from boarding the ship for some much needed rest! Have a great cruise.

Safe travels- enjoy your cruise!

Eeks @bennybear your tropical friend causes me anxiety. Thanks @SusieKIslandGirl I am posting a note hoping someone (including the mail carrier) does the right thing.

I thought of you @Nickelpenny when DH said these Orb Weavers are good spiders. He's amazed how quickly their webs get so big. We've had 1 in the back for several weeks and now there's 1 in the front in the Spider Lilly plant. *these are not "our" spiders; they're pictures posted on Nextdoor.*

I've not had it take more than a few minutes for the emails to arrive; you'll get one email for each card purchased. I'd check your spam folder then give 'em a call if you don't find them.

So exciting to see that count creeping down. 😎 I seem to be using your countdown as my reminder to look at my number, so please keep the countdown calendar coming 🤭

Egads! I've thought that a few times; maybe an oversight - slid under a seat or something, but so many times is unacceptable. I am know thinking she may scan as delivered so she can close out her day in a timely manner then actually put in the boxes on a later day. 🤷‍♀️ Never had a 6 month gap, though.

Lovely pictures @marshhawk Frustrated is not my preferred start for a new day, but here I am. I received notice 2 things I ordered were delivered - 1 Thurs and 1 yesterday. I have learned that most of the time actual delivery is delayed a day from what USPS tracking shows, so I waited to check the mailbox. Of course, neither delivery is there, but once again I have mail w/a different address. We have locked cluster boxes, so there's no way anyone took them - they were either not delivered or put in the wrong box. No way to go to the post office until Mon, but I don't have high hopes for successful resolution. Previously, I've been told they can't do anything since the packages were scanned as delivered and the shipper has to file a claim. Shipper is then told claim denied as they were scanned as delivered. Last time, I was told same thing plus given a number to call to file a complaint. The complaint is not a claim & doesn't get money back, it's just a complaint process. Emotional support is not what I bought or want from the PO - I want the docking & charging stations I paid for. I do have Informed Delivery - that also shows the packages delivered. 🤷‍♀️😪

Disappointing and frustrating, no doubt, but glad you've put together a plan to get there. Spiders and flight changes got nothing on you!! Safe travels and do enjoy the cruise 🛳

🤞🙏

No physical paper tickets anymore - you are scanned onto excursions. And the system will only apply excursion credit for the name it was issued.
