  1. I think HBE's intent was that George and I are in TX and are still Yankee fans. But of course, Bronx = Yankee fans, and, Brooklyn = Dodgers fans I wonder how many Brooklyn folks remained Dodger fans after the Dodgers left Brooklyn. Many at that time switched to The Mets.. Lenny, were you a Dodger fan before they left Brooklyn?
  2. More like Aunt and Niece? How is Jim feeling? I hope any residual pain is minimal. I had my gall bladder out the invasive way approx 33 years ago and as OB stated, longer to reecuperate. My friend had it out the laproscopic way and was back to work in 2 days. Your comments about Adventure don't surprise me since Voyager class ships are probably aging gracefully (I hope). We're treating this cruise as our getaway and duct tape won't deter us from relaxing and enjoying our time on the sea.. I'm sure we won't go hungry and will find something to eat. Truthfully, our last cruise was 3 or 4 years ago and even then I detected a slip in food quality but as you stated, food is very much subjective. Our expectations are not high so hopefully, we won't be disappointed. I'm glad to read that the crew gets high marks. I'm looking forward to sailing one of the "big girls" for the first time in March on the Bella cruise and meeting you, Jim and so many others will be wonderful and extra special..
  3. So glad to hear Jim is feeling better! Any comments about Adventure? We just booked a cruise on Adventure out of Galveston in Feb.
  4. Thanks for the head's up. I quickly went on the main board to add her thread to my other ":Lives" that I bookmark.
  5. Maryann, I am so sorry this happened to Jim. You must have been stressed, worried, etc. beyond belief, but for the most part, it seems that you encountered caring people to help lighten your stress level. It sounds like Jim got good care and that's most important. I hope Melanie is better and that your son in law does not develop the symptoms she had. Try and relax now that you're home! You were missed.
  6. I remember @TravelGirlinDallasBethany mentioned it as their favorite place. We'll be in Galveston on Feb. 5 pre cruise and if timing is right, we'll try to be at Sunflower for a late lunch.
  7. I'm so glad I found your review. Another heaven on earth resort. You'll be visiting exotic places I've only read about. I am so very happy to follow along. Enjoy every wonderful moment.
  8. Oh my, how terrifying!! So glad you were able to duck in that alley. I think I'll pass on the Fair! Beautiful pictures of a beautiful family. Very beautifully displayed. I could eat every item on that board in a NY minute.
  9. @Ozark_Kid I'm following along. Have a fabulous cruise. My time on CC will be very busy reading 3 Lives. Your's, Greg's and @John&LaLaJohn's. I'm not complaining! Carry on.
  10. Greg, so sorry this happened, but hope you won't be in much pain and can enjoy your cruise! Not sure but I think I read (on this thread maybe) that Kraken is good to drink for medicinal purposes!
  11. I can imagine how hard it must be to leave heaven on earth. Hoping for no more delays and safe travels home.
  12. I just can't keep track of all the shifting of ships to different home ports. Allure, Aventure, Ruby Princess and a host of others are coming to Galveston.
  13. So after saying we would never take a cruise less than 7 nights, we have a 5 night one on hold. Very favorable rate was the deciding factor PLUS Quality Inn is $80 per night and no charge to keep the car for the duration of the cruise. Adventure out of Galveston in Feb. Will be good to warm up for our March Bella cruise. No suit for Jack, no fancy shmancy outfits for me. We just want to relax. We probably won't leave the ship. We aren't seasoned cruisers but after multiple times in Cozumel, we've had enough.
  14. We've been in the Dallas area for 19 years and still have not made it to the Fair. Are we missing much? I posted my worry about Maryann @Luckynanaa few days ago. I hope all is well and she's just catching up on post cruise stuff. Hope your recuperating quickly! Just when I think those kiddos can't get any cuter, you post pictures like these! No doubt, Kenzie drove to the mall!
  15. Hope it all goes smoothly! Any target date for completion? Double WOW. I love your calendar. Doesn't sound good. Hope it's corrected soon. Uh oh. Debbie so sorry you got covid with all those symptoms. Hope you'll be feeling much better very, very soon. It seems as soon as they come out with a new booster, another covid variant pops up. Hope Eric stays healthy. Jack took the "covid pills" as soon as he tested positive and he thinks it helped keep the symptoms mild. I didn't take them because of kidney issues and I had very mild symptoms, just a runny nose. If Jack hadn't tested positive the day before, i wouldn't have tested myself thinking it was TX allergies.
  16. Beautiful! Also beautiful! My aids have a built in microphone. I can hear people clearly and they hear me as well. Mimi, my hearing aids are also Phonak. I have a phone app that manages settings but I rarely use it. Mine are 11 months old. I have no idea how it works since my Audiologist programmed bluetooth for my phone and computer audio. My previous hearing aids were not compatible for bluetooth technology.
  17. We took our daughter to Disney World when she was 5. She insisted rather strongly that she wanted to go on that boat ride "It's a Small World" as often as possible. Fast forward a few days later when we were back home and strolling in the shopping mall near us. Well we had to go into the Disney Store and what did we hear playing all through the store? Yup, "It's a Small World". The clerks greeted us with smiles and perky welcomes. I honestly wanted to puke!!
  18. Amazing photos and video. If I had a bucket list, Hawaii would be at the top especially your heaven on earth resort. Continue to have sunny skies and many more happy moments.
  19. I think I misunderstood? You were talking through your phone and not your hearing aids? I know with bluetooth in my hearing aids I can leave the phone quite a distance from where I phone chat. I also hear thru my hearing aids when listening to you tube online, instead of wearing earphones when Jack is next to me watching TV.
  20. One wonderful feature of my hearing aids in addition to...hearing, is that my phone calls come in through my bluetooth enbled hearing aids. I never have to hold a phone. Just press one button on my hearing aid to answer a call. If the person I am speaking to hangs up I need not press anything to end the call on my end.
  21. I am so sorry you couldn't be helped. How did the doctor end things? I'm glad you aren't giving up on other doctors. I hate to get personal and you don't have to answer but often you posted you're always in extreme pain. May I ask where your pain is? Nobody should have to live with excruciating pain especially sitting in a doctor office.
