Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃 We’ve already celebrated with DH’s family last Saturday (our tradition) so I’m cooking a prime rib for us later today. I'm still playing catch-up on reading the fleet report/daily. My goal is to catch-up before I leave on my Discovery Princess cruise with DD in 9 days. But I’m working, going to a craft fair (Harvest Festival, last of the season), and then of course packing. So I’ll do the best I can. (The good thing is I’ll have Wi-Fi this cruise so we’ll see how good it is.) Prayers 🙏 for all on the Care list. And a big woohoo 🥳 to those on the Celebrations/Shoutout list. Happy heavenly birthday to Jose @kazu🤗😘.

I’m still trying to catch up. I was down to 5 days, but now back to 7. 🫤 We have our family Thanksgiving tomorrow so I think I’ll be more behind. But I just saw this on FB and thought of my “other” family:

Hi everyone. I’m back from my cruise on the NCL Bliss, and am now in Vegas playing bingo. I didn’t have a chance to read the Daily and Fleet reports so I’m playing catch-up. It was a relaxing cruise, I only got off the ship in Cabo for internet service. We were in the Haven (my first time) and everything was wonderful except for the sofa bed. It took 4 nights before it was just OK. Great food, great service, I saw Jersey Boys twice, the Beatles Experience twice, and a band “Siglo” once. Didn’t see the comedians. I’ll be home from Lost Wages on Wednesday. We have “Friendsgiving“ with our bible study on Thursday, our family Thanksgiving on Saturday, and I need to go to the cemetery on Sunday to decorate my dad’s grave. Then in 2 weeks I’ll be on the Discovery Princess with my DD. I’ll be home for a couple months then will be going to Miami to board the NCL Encore for a Caribbean cruise with my mom and sis & hubby. After I get home I’ll be camping (annual fireworks shown Lake Havasu). THEN I’ll be home for a while. (I’m sure my boss will be happy. 😉) Take Care!

Good morning! Yesterday I dropped off my mail in ballot and did some last minute shopping for my cruise. DD decided we would go the craft fair this morning instead of yesterday afternoon. So after work yesterday I made a big dent in my packing. Friends are arriving at the cruise hotel today. I’ll be driving in tomorrow. I didn’t get a WiFi package so I’ll just have to catch up with reading while in port. Know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers especially those on the Care List. Remember to fall back tonight (if your area does that).

Rabbit, rabbit, white rabbit! 🐇 Have a wonderful day!

Busy week for me. DH and I just got back from an off-road trip to Laughlin. It was a nice trip with good weather and only 2 little breakdowns: Our friend’s tire got 2 punctures in the sidewall going through some brush trying to avoid a mud pit. He just plugged them and was good to go. DH lost an engine mount (again... happened on a previous trip). He put in a bolt as a temporary fix and it got us home. We try to do this twice a year but the last time was 3 years ago. I leave for my MR cruise with friends on the NCL Bliss on Sunday. I will only be able to pack a little after work each day. Monday is a nail appt. Tuesday we babysit our grandkids so parents can have a date night. Wednesday I babysit (weekly) so one grandchild can go the speech therapy. Thursday is bible study, Friday I’d like to go to a craft fair. So the main packing will be on Saturday. The day I return from the cruise I fly to Las Vegas for a bingo tournament. Will be there for 3 nights then fly home. Then 2 1/2 weeks after I get home from Vegas I leave on a MR cruise with my DD on the Discovery Princess. This a a reschedule from my cancelled Diamond Princess cruise in September. Somewhere in there I need to go to the cemetery to decorate my dad’s grave for my mom, and there’s Thanksgiving. And 2 more family birthdays and Christmas. I think I may be spreading myself a little thin. 😃

Bon Voyage! 🙂

I would love to know the shows schedule on the Mexican Riviera itinerary.

🙋🏻‍♀️ Hello!

I got the email today also. 😉

Check again. All my emails have the same date so I thought I had read all of them. Then I noticed that one was (slightly) bolded. This was the new email.

Good morning Daily family. I took my DMiL to get her flu shot last night then we picked up burgers for dinner. Stayed too long talking (imagine that!) so I didn’t get to the grocery store (need stuff for potluck at bible study tonight) so I’m going this morning before work. Luckily we have flexible start times (any time between 6-8:30am) and just need to work 8 hours. One more hour before the store opens. Thank you @richwmn for our Fleet and Daily report. And @rafinmd for our Care and Celebrations lists. Prayers 🙏 for all on the Care list especially those that have lost family and friends. High fives for all on the Celebrations and Shoutout list. 👏🎉 Have a great day all. 😘

Jacqui, just booked another BHB cruise. 🙂 Eurodam - 9-Dec-23 - 11 day Southern Caribbean Wayfarer

So do I. 😋 I hope it turns out to be a minor/inexpensive repair. 🤞 Goo job! 👏 This looked so good I had to get this for lunch today. 😉😋 (Not sure how I stuck these posts together.) @Quartzsite Cruiser prayers that DH’s surgery goes well. 🙏 @Cruzin Terri glad you were able to enjoy the sun for a bit. 🙂

Happy Thanksgiving to our Canadian family!
