I received a text in the last hour that our appointments for tomorrow are cancelled due to closure of the location. Hoped on their website and they are offering PCR tests are limited locations now. Hoped onto Walgreens site and booked 2 appointments for their rapid Naat test but the earliest is 4:15 pm. Eric didn't want to pack until he has results. Worst case scenario I still have 3 emed tst kits left but I am holding on them just incase Walgreens doesn't work out. Wow. I think we might be on your second leg on Anthem. We have CVS tests scheduled. Hopefully we will be OK with our appointments based on our proximity to NYC. We will also schedule Walgreens as backup. If we pass the tests, look for a woman with medium - long straight blonde hair and freckles. Ha. Good luck with the tests! ☘️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check and see if cvs in your area is still scheduling the rapid tests. Our Son told us their appts in Philadelphia were cancelled too. Same thing unable to schedule a rapid test at cvs in Philadelphia. Looks like they are only doing PCR tests. So he's booking with walgreens now.

I had a friend who bought the emed tests, and they accidentally shipped him the wrong product -- just the home tests, not the proctored test. (And yes, he showed me his receipt and the boxes he received, he did order them right and they sent the wrong one.) He didn't figure out it was the wrong test until he was in his hotel the night before the cruise. He messaged me b/c he couldn't figure out how to do the online part of the test, and I called him and was able to figure out that he had the "regular" test. Emed agreed to send him new tests, but that didn't do him any good for the cruise he was taking the next dady. He ended up having to go out that afternoon and paid like $150 for a test at an urgent care center. Spending ~$35 on the home tests is WAY cheaper than paying emergency out of pocket urgent care prices!!!! Wow, nothing is foolproof. Other than getting tests that didn't work had not heard of other issues with the emed tests. Still say it's one of the safest and you get the results right away, no waiting for anyone to get back to you. Thank goodness for places like cc where we can learn about others issues and take precautions. Double and triple checking is needed and yes it does take away from the pre cruise anticipation.

Sheal Posted March 18, 2022 #51733 Share Posted March 18, 2022 @dani negreanu I knew I would forget but I remembered just in time! Happy Birthday and too many, many more! I wish you (and your family) many more years of health and happiness. You certainly deserve it for bringing such a great group of people together!

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted March 18, 2022 #51734 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Talking of hair. Awkward when you ditch your long term hairdresser for somewhere much cheaper and your old hairdresser moves into your street. Always feel a bit guilty when I walk past his house on the days I get my hair done. Just got fed up with the escalating prices especially when I felt I was paying for the salon remodel that included massage chairs, coffee machine and deluxe TVs. Extras I don’t need. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ozark_Kid Posted March 18, 2022 #51736 Share Posted March 18, 2022 @Sunshine3601 You are 2" taller than Kenzie’s mom. Do you have any planes for the Orlando stop? Our cruise friends are headed to Disney right now. At the airport they ran into a couple we both know who is sailing on Wonder this week out of ft Lauderdale. I didn’t even know they liked to cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as the pita goes, calories be "darned". 😉 I make and eat unstuffed cabbage but I can't eat unfilled shwarma or felafel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That all depends on how the bum knee is functioning in Jan.. The good thing is it’s RT from San Diego which is our homeport , twelve miles west from our house.
