You do have a resident artist so perhaps you two can come up with something. Looked up Capt. Kate and she has an on-board cat . A small painting of her cat ? Next to last PT session for my husband this morning. Hopefully done and finished with knee rehab a few days short of one month of his surgery. Almost perfect bending and a few points short on straightening. He’ll have to continue a lifelong exercise program to keep those muscles strong . No pain or nerve irritation, fortunately. Watching Depp V Heard trial and feel sorry they have to resort to this public display of their marital issues. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I weighed in this morning at 185.8. Lost over 5lbs! I feel my best between 175 to 180. Looks like I should of booked a B2B. My wife loves weight watchers, goes to meetings every Saturday. She doesn’t really count points but eats very healthy, her only vice is wine . She been going for years. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kate gets lots and lots of pictures, clothes, you name it for her cat [she is called "Bug Naked"]. In our "correspondence" she raved about her one and only visit to the port of Haifa, and visiting sacred places for the Christianity. She also has in prominent display a statue of St. Nicholas [patron of sailors]. That's the reason I lean towards finding something "faith-related". So glad Steve is progressing so nicely. Quality of life is so important. Every painless day counts. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never been to a WW meeting but I do follow their food philosophy - low calorie, low fat and high fiber. Although not so much on a cruise! Wine & cocktails are my vices also. I’m really not much of a sweet eater, I’d actually rather have fresh fruit. Except Key Lime Pie - but that’s almost fruit?! 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I owe my wife Linda big time for all the work she did for me. I was very fat at one time ,bordering on obesity. I was working for a health insurance company that had a Nutritionist on staff,something truly unique at the time.She restructured my eating habits.I lost 66 pounds and never gained the weight back.I keep a picture of myself in my wallet of how I looked after losing the weight.I also convinced myself that the foods I used to eat may have tasted wonderful when I ate them but the end result was not worth it. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravelGirlinDallas Posted May 25, 2022 #58409 Share Posted May 25, 2022 (edited) Y'all. This morning was my boy's graduation from 5th grade. He's headed to middle school in the fall. While we were waiting for the ceremony to begin, another couple came in and sat next to us. They had a baby carrier with them. The lady immediately started fussing with the carrier to take the baby out. Only it wasn't a baby at all - it was a large pug dog!! She then began dressing the dog in a shirt that matched her own outfit! All in an elementary school cafeteria. It was... unusual.

I haven’t been online much as someone tried to hack me on this hotel network so staying off wifi and sleeping. Fever finally gone and breathing better so hope to get out of here as planned. I know I have missed a lot on this thread and will catch up once I have my laptop at home. @DaniDanielle I am so sorry for your loss. Sending prayers to your family. @Luckynana sending prayers for baby Ginny. Pleased to hear you are feeling better. I am always wary on hotels free WiFi and even on their encrypted WiFi. Take care and stay safe. Graham. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arzeena Posted May 25, 2022 #58412 Share Posted May 25, 2022 I have had the pleasure of meeting Lenny and Toby on NCL, Marietta and Charlie on the Anthem. And I remember well enough to pick all four out of a lineup. 😄 I also think I have met or run across others....I see pictures and say hmmmm where have I seen them? Definitely have seen Deb. But I was associating Deb's Andy as somebody else's hubby. 🤣 Ok so I will be quiet before I get anyone into any trouble. LOL!😜😁 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides WW my wife goes to camp gladiator 4 days a week at 5 am , only time I worked out that hard was in basic training which was way over 50 years ago, I also am fond of key lime pie . Maybe I can think of my gin and tonics as healthy since I do get a wedge of lime in them 😁😁. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since our inlaws will be abroad [they got an offer to visit Normandy which they couldn't refuse 😉] and our "mutual" grandson was 4 years old today, we'll celebrate more than a week ahead, and I volunteered to bake.... surprise... a cheese cake.

Part 1 -- Your cheesecake looks absolutely delicious. 🥰 I cannot wait to see when topped. We love cheese in our house and would enjoy any holiday that includes lots of cheese and dairy items. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUR GRANDSON🎂 4 yrs old is such a sweet precious age. I loved when our boys were this age. Walking, talking, (done potty training) and really starting to show their personalities. Enjoy and savor every moment you can. Is it Shavuot that you will be celebrating? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want get the NBC Peacock App and watch all the Below Deck Sailings from Below Deck, Below Deck Med, Below Deck Sailing and Below Deck Down Under with all their seasons. You could watch 24/7.
