I have asthma and have had pneumonia several times. I bet you feel great in 2 weeks. As I am sure your doctor husband (I am a doctor too) tells you that you feel better before your X-rays do. They take a while to go back to normal. That’s why first X-ray with pneumonia may not show much as the X-ray and illness don’t always line up. Thus pneumonia is a clinical ie. symptoms, listening diagnosis. Sit back and relax and heal. I hate that coughing too.

Everyone recovers differently. If you are young and healthy you may feel great in 2 weeks. You just need to see how you recover. I doubt you will be contagious. If bacterial, your antibiotics will help and it stops you from spreading the disease. If viral, 2 weeks is sufficient time to render you unable to spread. With insurance you have the luxury of time. For your own sake I would mask up on planes and crowded places as you may be a little more susceptible. My husband traveled a lot when he was undergoing chemo. He always masked up and never got sick.

For not much more you can add Club Orange if sailing in non suite cabin. This allows you to eat in a smaller more intimate dining area. I will be sailing on NS in May and added club orange. There are other perks with it and many threads on it. Certain suite cabins get to eat in club orange not sure which ones. HAL is not known for lots of kids. I would compare them to Celebrity which I have sailed on many times. I did not like the E class ships on Celebrity unless I could have a real balcony. Others love them. It is lucky we have so many choices. I plan on reporting back on my NS experience so I hope it goes well.

Thanks for the information.

Good morning, I hope everyone and their luggage make it to the ship. I am nervous for them. After my recent air travel snafus. I am glad I built in extra days before my next two cruises. I am heartbroken today. My best friends son died last night. He was the first friend my late son made when we moved to Kansas. He had recent leg surgery and most likely had a blood clot. It is just so awful. if I am silent for a few days you know why.

Thanks for your report. I will be sailing on the NS for 22 days in May and I enjoy reading about what my experience will be like.

Good morning, It will be another warm sunny day. I have not been to Monaco but hope to one day. I love to read and we had book mobiles in our neighborhood when I was young. Peach cobbler is one of my favorite and I make it every year when peaches are in season. My new luggage came yesterday. I think I will like it. I will take the carryon and one other piece. Most likely the middle one. I bought the three set to have more luggage for the Grand Australia cruise. have a great day.

Good morning, I love grilled cheese sandwiches and so do the grands. I have a brother who is a lawyer so I guess I am kind to a lawyer. Winds will be medium today with no big gusts. So I guess no big wind day here. A few weeks ago we would have qualified. I realized this morning that I leave in 3 weeks for my NS cruise. I am both excited and scared at the same time. I need to get serious about gathering together what I need. Jacqui I hope you have a better day. I may have missed it, did you get the hardware out of your elbow? I wish I could have met you on the NS cruise. Hopefully we will meet on another cruise in the future. Prayers for those on the care list. I hope everyone I’d having a great time on the cruises they are on. Have a great day.

Good morning all, A beautiful sunny day here in Kansas. A do worker of mine always greeted us with it was the “Best day of his life”. He was happy and a joy to work with. Thanks @aliaschief on the tip for bar soap. The shower gels wreak havoc on my skin. Prayers for those on the care list. I will sign off with one of my favorite pet photos.

Good afternoon, the rains found us. My son just sent me a video of my DGS playing with his new golf club. He is 5 YO. It is in slo mo. BCF1416B-5ECE-4132-AD2E-61BF86449C76.MOV

Good morning everyone, We were supposed to get rain but not sure now. We are still ahead in moisture so I am ok with it. I have 5 siblings and all have alpha personalities. It makes get togethers very interesting. I grew up in the city so no farm animals for me. Golf has never been fun for me. I took lessons but it is just to frustrating. I am off to be tortured and therapy. I swear she is going to break my bones. Have a great day everyone!

Ok, you guys have me hooked on the Port Everglades Webcam. I just saw two HAL ships depart. Getting excited about my upcoming cruise. I still have not lost those pesky 10 pounds.

Happy everything today, there is too many to mention. I plan on a quiet Sunday. I went to my sons early this morning and had breakfast. They will be celebrating with DDIL family later. They invited me but I am ok with a quiet day (they are a bit strange and I feel a bit uncomfortable around them). I am not sure what it means when the DGK’s lined up their Easter treats!!

Ask! I was issued a refund for the difference of $1800. This was after final payment. Others got upgrades and OBC. It never hurts to ask.

Good morning all. It looked like great weather for a while so DGS and I will clean off the outdoor furniture and bring out the cushions. Happy Birthday Sandi and thanks for getting us started each morning. Happy Anniversary Fred. May today be great for both of you. I splurged and bought attachable luggage. With two bad hands (one waiting for surgery and one recovering) I need help handling two pieces of luggage. I hope they are what they are advertised as I am sure I’ll need more than a carry-on for my next cruise. Prayers for those on the Carol list and for those suffering in the world. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.

Good afternoon everyone I made it home at 2AM. I was up by 7 to get to PT. It was a long day but others had even longer days from the stories I heard at the airport. Lots of cancellations due to crew issues. I will be right as rain by tomorrow. I have muscle memory from sleepless nights for the past 30 years. I do feel like I was on call last night. Have a great Weekend everyone. We will coloring Easter eggs tonight.

It happened again. Flight cancelled while I was in the air from Tucson to Salt Lake City. I don’t fly out until 9:30 PM and Arrive in KC at 1 AM. I am skeptical of this flight as all they have is —— as boarding time. A very nice gentleman gave his guest pass for the Delta sky lounge. Oh well, nothing I can do about it.

Good morning, All good things come to an end and I am on my home this morning. It was a nice getaway now I must go home to finish planning my May cruise. My DSIL did very well and it was good to see her laughing and having a good time. Prayers for those in need and have a great day!

Thanks, we have a driver. He has 5 stars so hopefully he is good!

Good morning, It is an early morning for me in Tucson. I guess I am still on CST. We are headed to Mount Lemon this morning. It will be a chilly one. We had a beautiful day yesterday. My DSIL is loving being here and she is moving around well with her cane,. This is not the most handicapped friendly resort but the staff is so nice and accommodating. My DGS wanted SDS to win last night and called me crying near the end of the game. Mind you he is 5 and does not know SDS but took a liking to them during the tournament. I told him I liked UConn so he started cheering for them. My DS thanked me and I reminded him like father like son! Have a great day everyone and prayers to those on the care list and to others that need it.

Good morning, I made it to Tucson after a long day. The weather is sunny but will turn cooler tomorrow. It is nice to be with loved ones. The rainbow picture I found was a double rainbow I saw on my first cruise with a friend post DH and DS dying. It is a double rainbow one for each. Have a great day, I am going to enjoy the sunshine and company.

Many phone reps are not familiar with CO. Just make sure you keep asking to speak with someone who is.

Good morning from Atlanta, Yes I said Atlanta. My flight from KC to Tucson was canceled last night. They rerouted me through Atlanta. Yikes , this will be a long day. No sense in getting upset as it does not change things. Planes couldn’t get to where they needed to go yesterday with all the storms. I hope everyone has a great day.

Rabbit, rabbit, white rabbit! I need all the luck I can get this month. The wind continues to roar outside and now my Internet is not working. I hope I can troubleshoot it before dear grandson gets up. I go to Norway in May and I am looking forward to seeing a beautiful country. Prayers to all of the care list and I hope everybody has a great Saturday.

Oh boy, all I had to do was click my heels and fly home today. The wind here in Kansas is crazy. I am in for the rest of the day. The mail can wait. The Grandkids are coming over and I will have to convince them to stay in.
