I have been taking care of patient 3225, otherwise known as my wife. Everything turned out well, and we are back to normal. Lunch today was at a new Thai restaurant. We have been there a couple of times, and haven’t found anything bad. You get a couple spring rolls with your meal, but we ordered some extras. Susan had shrimp fried rice. I had Pad Thai I was hesitant to order it, because I got violently ill on some I had at Universal Studios last year. Much better outcome today. Off to work a funeral dinner at our church tonight. Happy to hear your Wife, aka patient 3225 is OK 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I vote for shelter. We have some great cats from a local rescue shelter. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted January 25 #113553 Share Posted January 25 6 minutes ago, WrittenOnYourHeart said: I personally always vote for shelter cats. There are always so many in the shelter that need homes. Barring that, look into seeing if there's a breed rescue you could adopt from. I don't know if they have them for cats, but at least for dogs they specialize in rehoming a certain breed that have been surrendered for whatever reason. Adopt, don't shop. I agree, we will get to kittens I prefer both from shelter, if not we will get at least one from shelter. Once we go to the shelter I think my wife will change her mind . 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen haywood Posted January 26 #113554 Share Posted January 26 Every cat I’ve ever had was either from a shelter or a cat that appeared and adopted me. ❤️❤️❤️ 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Momof3gurlz Posted January 26 #113558 Share Posted January 26 Nothing but gloomy, dreary, drizzly weather here with a little snow mixed in earlier this week. The high today was 55 degrees and we have more rain coming over the next several days. I’ll take it, along with the warmer temps, over snow any day, @Luckynana has it warmed up at all for you? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here in Michigan, although Tues and Wed didn't get quite as warm and we had a lot of icing on our dirt roads, thereby no school. A weird thing about living in the Detroit suburbs is that we do have dirt roads and they are considered exclusive (which makes no sense but just trust me) as they are in the "country" as opposed to the "city". 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted January 26 #113560 Share Posted January 26 Read in the paper this morning that singer Melanie Safka passed away. I liked her song "Beautiful People". I also thought she was quite beautiful herself back in the day. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted January 26 #113561 Share Posted January 26 I saw a video on the prep for the naming ceremony of Icon. It mostly featured Michael Bayley. However, it also had a fair amount if shots including Jason Liberty. Every time they showed him I would feel some contempt for what he is doing to this cruise line.😏 10 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve hit a very frustrating period in my knee replacement rehab. Dealing with a lot of pain and restless leg syndrome at night that’s driving be crazy.

Rare bobmacliberty Posted January 26 #113565 Share Posted January 26 The weather here was great yesterday but in the few weeks before...not so much. Lots of gray skies and temps that were even dipping into the 30s. While that's nothing compared to what many of you have been experiencing, it's still a little depressing. We therefore decided that we need to go someplace warm. We'll be flying down to Punta Cana (Dominican Republic) in 3 weeks. We were there 20 years ago when our kids were young (to address winter cabin fever while living in Cincinnati) but have not been back since. We'll be staying at Secrets Cap Cana, an adult only all-inclusive which gets good reviews. This will be a pure relaxation trip with no "excursions" planned. Just beach, pool, food, drink, repeat. Has anyone been to Secrets Cap Cana? 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted January 26 #113566 Share Posted January 26 I am looking for a recommendation from some of our friends here. Our plans for Summer of Fun 4.0 continue, and part of that is to take the grandkids and our daughter and SIL on the Utopia. I just booked all of our flights to Orlando MCO). Has anyone used a car service they can recommend. Since there will be seven of us, plus luggage, I would like to keep all of us in one vehicle like a van or stretch limo, instead of using a couple Ubers. We would be going to our hotel at Port Canaveral, since we arrive the day before the cruise. If anyone has someone they could recommend, I would appreciate it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I can offer is my sympathy and positive thoughts crossing the Med and the Pond towards you 😘 47 minutes ago, h20skibum said: I am looking for a recommendation from some of our friends here. @h20skibum Mark, I've used this company and recommended it to various CC friends along the year, all were very appreciative. Don't know about your airport, though, but I'm attaching their link, worth checking with them.

ValerieJo Posted January 26 #113575 Share Posted January 26 On 1/19/2024 at 2:09 PM, Arzeena said: @ValerieJo I hope your cruise is wonderful. I just wanted to know if you went to Trois Iselt and to the Bakou in Martinique and what were your thoughts. We will be there in March again. Hi Arzena, Sorry I'm so far behind on this thread. For Martinique we did a tour with a company called "Beyond the Beach" (we did the South tour). While we enjoyed it, I felt most of it was driving. First stop was a great artisan village with lots of art work, pottery and small shops. The problem was we only had about 20 minutes there, so not nearly enough time to check it out or make any purchases. Our 2nd stop was a beach that had fantastic snorkeling, but again we only had about 40 minutes there. Not nearly enough time there either. The 3rd stop was a Rum Factory for tasting. It was OK but we weren't big fans of the rum. We just felt there was too much time driving and not enough time to enjoy the stops on this tour. I think we would do something different if we were to go back to Martinique. Hope you have a wonderful time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
