Lenny- I am hoping that your dear Toby will recover from the accident in time. It was quite a shock for both of you. Be gentle with each other and gain strength from your children and friends. Such an accident could happen to anyone. Good that neither of you had serious physical injures. As it is often said- one day at a time.

Take care

MJ🙋🏻

 

 

 

 

 

I was not in the car.I was in Parkinsons Therapy and did not know anything until the building was being evacuated.

Thanks, I'll give it a try!

Bonnie, I don’t have to delete after I read things in my Favorites. (On my iPhone). I just hit the button on the bottom right to move to another Favorite. Or elsewhere. 
When I click on them again, I just refresh. 
I’m really inept on the computer, but this works for me. 

Mimi, thanks. I'm on a laptop but I'll try your suggestion.

Lenny, I hope you don't mind my post, but, I think some are concerned at why this happened and sometimes we think we're ok and don't want the bother of seeing a doctor.  Even though Toby is a nurse, self diagnosing might be difficult in this situation.   Glad she's home and able to rest after that horrible experience.

Because it is perfectly normal for people to just drive into buildings.

When I fell on Dec 28 and made the hole in the wall with my head, I said my knee was the only thing to worry about. 
my head didn’t hurt, so I was ok. 
Luckily, I guess I was. But what I didn’t think about was that I’m on Xarelto, and could have had a brain bleed. 
Toby knows all the ramifications, and feels she’s making an informed decision, but is her life, health and her back worth risking? I hope her loved ones let her know they need her.

Thank you for commenting, someone that has been in an accident that bad, needs to be checked out for injuries caused by the crash, but also for something that might have caused them to crash to begin with.  I hope she is fine and resting but someone should make sure she really is okay.

And several time in my career I have seen that happen to people on anticoagulants.

Whew, finally caught up again! I had Covid last week and got behind on reading this thread, and it moves so fast! I’m fine now other than the lingering fatigue, which is rough. Andrew had symptoms for only 2 days but tested negative, and my husband Brian escaped unscathed.

 

Best wishes to @Sea Dog this morning! Hope all goes well!

 

Speaking of surgery, our little rescue kitty Lucy is going to have to have a large bladder stone removed on Friday. You can tell it’s making her so uncomfortable; she’s in her litter box every couple of minutes. I’m so glad we have her now (we adopted her in October) so that we can get this fixed for her and help her feel better.

 

 

She has such a sweet face.   You are right you can see the discomfort in her eyes and the way she is sitting.     I'm sure she will feel so much better after they remove the stone on Friday.    She is very lucky to have adopted you😍

Give those cats a rub for me. That is, if they’ll allow it.

I’m embarrassed that I assumed I was ok and should have thought about the effect of blood thinners.

I have a question for those of you that have cruised since the restart. 
I called C&A and after a long hold was cut off. 
I cancelled my March 20 Harmony about three weeks before RCI canceled, so I had to take FCC. 
Booked Harmony with the FCC for March of 21. RCI  canceled. (It was it the CDC?)
I booked March of 22, using the smudged and tattered FCC, and by George we are going if we have to shimmy up the hawsers!

My question: do we get double points or does that only come with brand new bookings with no appendages?

If we get double points, we’ll be Diamond on our Allure cruise in August. 
If we don’t, I won’t be crying in my beer on Allure, because I won’t have drink vouchers.

If you did a new booking for March 2022 cruise and simply used a FCC from your cancelled 2020 cruise then Yes, the double points should apply as long as you booked within the dates the promo was in place.

We had our April Hawaii cruise canceled by RC that would of been double pts.  They offered us a couple of Hawaiian cruises in 2023 to move to but they didn’t sound good at the time. We then used that fcc to book our Alaska cruise in May.  I don’t expect to get double pts from it.

Our Gracie was a stray we took in 4 years ago, she is HIV Positive and  also will eat anything we  put in front of her even though she has a full mouth extraction( no teeth, doesn't stop her from eating anything)

 

I also call her our million dollar cat, which my wife doesn't like me calling her that. lol

That's so lovely that she found a loving home with you and your wife .

35 years ago we had a cat who got bitten by another cat and developed cat aids. Poor thing never recovered and we had to have her put down

No need to be embarrassed. Just learn from the mistake so that the next time you decide to use your head to make a hole in a wall....😉

That could happen at any time!

The funny thing is my knee. The black and blue is just below the knee now, and feels like pebble grain leather. I have never had a bruise that.changed the texture of my skin. 
Where my surgery scar from ‘99 runs vertically up and down  my knee, it now stands up like a very hard worm. It has been a flat white line for years. 
It fascinates me, how recovery crrates changes every few days. 
No pain, though, for which I’m grateful.

Here is my guess. When you booked for March 2022, if you got a new booking number on the reservation that was generated during the promition then I would say you get double points.

 

I recently changed ship and date and made sure I kept the reservation number that was generated during the promotion.
