  1. Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. No kids to hug here. Some sour candy is ok. We should all listen more. Typical Marilyn quote. I like the meal, pass on the drink, and yes to the wine if someone else is buying ($$$). I remember watching Nadia get that 10. I haven't been to Mare Island. It's still a bit hazy here, but better than yesterday; high of 82F. We're code yellow at AQI of 95, but likely to go into orange later. I think we'll finally dry out, so I can mow the lawn tomorrow. I'll be heading to PT early afternoon. And, yay, mammogram and bone density tests were both normal! I was in a study called TMIST for the past 6 years looking at 2D vs 3D mammograms (I got the latter), and this was the last year for that. @StLouisCruisers That should be a fun time in Dallas with Ren; and hopefully cooler by then. @Mr. Boston Your work days are dwindling down! @Cruzin Terri I'm sorry your tour wasn't what it was advertised to be. I have to try to find things without too much walking too, due to my knee issues. I hope tomorrow is better. @Denise T Exciting to be considering getting another dog. @marshhawk It sounds like it would be good for DH to stay a bit longer, if he can. @aliaschief I just spent time the last couple of weeks watching the whole Jack Ryan series on Amazon Prime. @Quartzsite Cruiser Unreal that it's taking so long to get things scheduled for DH. @smitty34877 Prayers for DH and you as you go through this process. @kazu I heard that Canada had lost areas to fire that is the size of Ohio. Good news that Ivan was so perky yesterday. @dfish Sorry to hear about the drain backup, especially when you're busy trying to get ready to leave. Thanks for the recipes. @ger_77 Love the Mandevilla. @cruzn single All that downsizing and purging is a big undertaking. @Horizon chaser 1957 I'm sure you're over the moon to have DD home from Taiwan this summer. @luvteaching I hope you are doing ok. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for those Celebrating. Stay well everyone.

  3. Good afternoon. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. No tattoos here. Wrong way Corrigan flew across the Atlantic not by mistake, but he hadn't been given permission as his plane was considered not safe enough, so he made the "mistake". I like emojis if not excessive. Interesting quote, especially about love. I'll pass on the meal (don't like pesto) and drink. Yes to the wine. I haven't been to Molde. I'm back from my mammogram and bone density tests this morning. Mini rant about the cost to park in hospital garages; it's gotten so expensive! It's warm and hazy. We're in the red zone with an AQI of 156, from wildfire smoke. So I'm in for the rest of the day. There's some things in the yard that need to be done, but I was bothered before, so I won't chance it. Then thunderstorms later. The bad air quality isn't supposed to be as bad or last as long as last month's. It's the birthday of my DD friend Ruth's DM and it doesn't seem appropriate to wish her Happy Birthday. I just sent a message saying I was thinking of her. @StLouisCruisers Thanks for starting up the FR/Daily for @richwmn. @Crazy For Cats Happy Anniversary to you and Juan! @summer slope Hugs to you as you pick up Bailey's ashes. @rafinmd I hope all your medical appointments go well. @kazu That's a lovely idea to set up an honorarium in Jose's name to help future NP's. Wow on all the blooms on your clematis. @Quartzsite Cruiser Thanks for the photos from Molde. That bridge is interesting. @ottahand7 Nice fish and flowers! @aliaschief Happy Birthday to your DS! Nice photos from Molde. @smitty34877 I hope all those appointments go well. @Nickelpenny Good luck with your tests. @marshhawk It sounds like continued family drama for DH, but as you say, maybe easier decisions with 2 rather than 3. I hope you get the reservation straightened out. Many years ago I was traveling to London, and when I checked on my reservation there wasn't one. It turns out my October reservation, say 10/6/1985 was interpreted as June 10, 1985 by European style of dating. I've noticed most online booking now uses the month written out to avoid this confusion. I did get it straightened out and got a room. @ger_77 Condolences on the loss of your friend yesterday. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for the Celebration List and anyone celebrating something.

  5. Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. I'm not a fan of spinach, fresh or cooked. Snakes have their place, just not near me. BFF had a large one (nonpoisonous) in his backyard last year, and whenever I go there I look around carefully! I remember seeing woodie wagons when I was growing up. Let's not forget National Ice Cream Day!! I agree with the quote, to a degree; some things need to be memorized. Maybe on the meal, no on the drink (basil) and yes to the wine. An important day in history. I have not been to Busan. It's another hot and humid day here today, with possible thunderstorms this evening. Also we're supposed to get wildfire smoke tomorrow, but they can't say how bad it will be yet. I'll be inside today, watching Wimbledon tennis and doing stuff around the house. Tomorrow AM I have to get going for appointments, mammogram and bone density. I'll try to remember to close the car to outside air when I leave. @StLouisCruisers Thank you for starting us up today, and @richwmn for laying the groundwork. Excellent photos from Busan. Sad about so many shootings with people killed and injured; every morning on the local news there seems to be new ones here. Stay safe! @grapau27 Thanks for the link to Fr. David's sermon. @dfish What are spiedies? @smitty34877 I hope DH's appetite picks up, but probably not easy if his diet is limited. So sorry to hear of the weather's impact on Tana; but good that she is still participating with meal choice and prep. @kazu Thanks. Your jam sounds great; my mother used to make jam that she put wax on top of (I gather this is no longer considered that safe). @cruising sister Continued prayers for baby Murphy that she progresses in her recovery. After several times losing refrigerator and freezers full of food, I have a couple of indoor power sources to keep them going about a day. It's terrible, plus trying to sleep in the heat. @ger_77 Congrats on your 1st cruise Anniversary! @marshhawk Good to hear that DH got his luggage! I hope the brothers can get things straightened out about their DM. @Nickelpenny Yikes on the snake on your neck! And the big one. You're braver than I am. @RMLincoln I hope DH's physical tomorrow goes well, so there's no impediment to surgery on August 1. @RedneckBob My favorite ice cream is the hazelnut gelato in Germany (see pic below). I've tried to replicate it by making my own, but haven't gotten a satisfactory batch yet. Commercially, my favorite is Haagen Dazs Rum Raisin. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers to those with something to Celebrate.

  7. Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. Pet fire safety is important; I've seen people put decals on windows so fire departments know about both kids and pets in the house. A salute to Canada, our neighbors to the North 🍁. I am putting stuff in a box for donation today. Good quote, whether the book be physical or electronic. I like the meal, although it's a lot of carbs. Pass on the drink and yes to the wine. I saw the Rosetta stone in the British Museum. I haven't been to La Caruna. Another hot day here, with a possible thunderstorm this evening. I had hoped to go back to sleep after posting the Cares list, but couldn't fall back asleep. I should do some edging of the lawn, but I don't feel like it. So I'll continue to sort through stuff in the house. @StLouisCruisers Thanks for starting us up today Sandi, in place of Rich. @Cruzin Terri That's outrageous about someone stealing your internet onboard, but scary that they had your information to do so. I say go for the necklace, if it's something you'll wear. @aliaschief Fun times ahead with the DGDs. @kazu Sorry to hear about the electronics woes. I usually get every other edition of the iPad. I have the 8th gen and the 10th is out, but I usually trade in my old one with Apple, for a credit towards the new one. @ottahand7 Too bad about the Monarch larva. I've tried growing butterfly bushes for them, but the bushes just died here (not sure if a soil issue or the wrong place in the yard). @rafinmd I hope you can find a replacement battery for your laptop. @cruising sister Wow on that storm. and I'm glad you have power. Thanks for the update on Murphy - she should be more comfortable with the chest tubes out. @Quartzsite Cruiser Thanks for the A Caruna and other photos. @grapau27 Thanks for sharing the celebration of Fr. David's birthday. @Seasick Sailor I'm glad everyone enjoyed the party and thanks for the pictures from it. And of cute Oliver! @marshhawk I hope Chuck's luggage has shown up. @luvteaching I hope you're doing ok. Prayers for the Care List and a Toast to those Celebrating.

  9. Good afternoon. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. I'll salute Bastille Day. Sharks are great creatures, I just don't want to meet one up close. I hope for no pandemonium today. I like some mac and cheese. Good quote. Pass on the meal (fish) and drink, and yes to the wine. I haven't been to Kiriwina Island. We had storms last evening, and my lights flickered but power thankfully stayed on. It would have been very hot inside without power, although I do have a rechargeable floor fan. This morning it started off very foggy. And it is so humid! The least little activity and you're sweating. Threats of thunderstorms later. I had an early start with a haircut at 9:30. I thought I had the time wrong as they don't open until 10, but I looked out a back window at the lot of the salon, and there was a car. My guy starts an hour before everyone else comes in. Then there was PT at 11, and a quick grocery store stop since it's in the same plaza. @Seasick Sailor Happy Birthday to Allen! Congrats on Ollie coming home on Monday. Have a great party today to celebrate Allen. @rafinmd Happy Birthday to your nephew Keith! @kochleffel When I read the name of the dorm complex, the word meshuggenah came to mind. @StLouisCruisers Thanks for the photos of Kiriwina Island. @kazu It's good to hear that Ivan is feeling better today. Nice flowers. @Nickelpenny I hope your tooth can be saved! @cruising sister So sorry to hear about baby Murphy's scan results, but I hope it turns out to be a finding that is not consequential. Continued prayers for her. I'm glad you booked the spa. @marshhawk Safe travels to Chuck. Sorry about all the family drama. @Heartgrove Best wishes for Sam to not be in pain. @ger_77 Sorry to hear about all the smoke where you are. You've made so many things; I'm sure the recipients will be very appreciative. @Crazy For Cats I hope the pill fixes Jasper's pancreatitis quickly. @smitty34877 Good news that DH is gradually improving. I'm sure it was sad to see the NH family go back home. Prayers for the Care List and a Toast to those Celebrating.

  11. Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily @richwmn. Barbershop music is ok. I embrace my geekiness! I'll pass on Fool's Paradise Day. Funny quote. Pass on the meal (fish), maybe to the drink, and the wine sounds good but is too expensive for me. I'll salute Captain Cook. I haven't been to Moorea Island. Another hot day, with possible severe storms this evening. When I went to put out the trash last night, I realized it was a bit cooler with a nice breeze. So I decided to mow; I usually don't like dusk due to mosquitos (who love me), but I put on repellant and did it. I had to stop halfway through due to my back, and take a short sit/hydration break. When I finished my hair was dripping wet from the humidity, but I got it done! So I'll relax today. I don't know what's going on here; shootings every day. Over the weekend, a 14-year old and a 15-year old were shot and killed. And the shooters were fellow teenagers. Something has to change. @kazu I hope you feel better today, and Ivan too. @StLouisCruisers Prayers for Amy on this sad anniversary. Thanks for the Moorea photos. Sadie and Milo are so cute! @smitty34877 I'm glad Lou enjoyed himself, despite it tiring him out. Woohoo on the new hip functioning so well. @marshhawk It is tough that your therapist is always changing. Mine is going on vacation on Friday, but the replacement is someone I had the first week. I think they're both good. I only go twice a week, and do try to do the home stuff, as I want this to work. Good to hear that Chuck's DM is home from the hospital. And my 2 cents is that he should go to visit her before his chemo. @Quartzsite Cruiser Great photos, thanks. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers to those Celebrating.

  13. @cruising sister Wonderful to hear that baby Murphy is off ECMO. Speaking of cows, it reminded me of the 2015 National Park trip BFF and I did. Each day we tried to be at the next destination by dark. But on the day we did Bryce Canyon, we were running late. After Bryce we were at Kodachrome State Park. Then we took Highway 12 through Grand Staircase Escalante. And the sun started setting. And we encountered these fellows.
  14. Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. I appreciate cows, not only for their milk and meat. I used to have an Etch a Sketch. I remember growing up and using paper bags that would break, especially if it rained. Now I use washable reusable bags. Typical Hitchcock quote. I'll pass on the meal (fish), drink and wine. The Habeas Corpus is so important. I was in Puerto Chacabuco on my SA/Antarctica cruise on the Zaandam. Thanks to all for the condolences on the passing of my friend Ruth. BFF and I spent last evening trying to send flowers to her parents. He was trying to do it online and it wouldn't complete, so he called and got someone who was hard to understand and got the spelling of the names wrong, so he had to call again. I constructed the message for the card. This AM I got a WhatsApp from Ruth's DM, so had to again send my condolences. 🥲 It's going to be hot here today and tomorrow. I need to get the lawn mowed either today or tomorrow, as we're supposed to have bad storms tomorrow evening, with high winds and possible power outages. @ottahand7 Nice photos. @Cruzin Terri Sorry you're having rainy weather on your trip. @smitty34877 I'm so glad DS was able to help with DH's appointment yesterday. Good luck with all the upcoming appointments. I'm glad you're able to spend time with the NH family and relax a bit. Also good that Tana's nursing friend will stay with her. @Seasick Sailor Busy, busy. I hope your friend's DH feels better soon. @sailingdutchy Great photos, Tony. @Copper10-8 Fun memes! @marshhawk Oh my on the therapist and the work issues. I hope Chuck's DM Norma will be ok, and agree he should go see her before he begins his new treatments. @kazu I hope Ivan is doing better. @luvteaching Thinking of you and Jeff. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for those Celebrating.

  16. Sadly, I got an email this afternoon from her DM saying that my friend Ruth passed away this morning. She was only 60 and put up a brave fight against her cancer. Her parents are in their 80's and she was their only child. BFF and I are very sad as we send our condolences to her family across the pond.
  17. Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. I'll try to cheer up anyone lonely (I've been there). I like blueberry muffins. Had never heard of Bowlder before today. The quote is ok as said in jest. I like German recipes for cucumber salad, some of which aren't creamy. I like the wine. Ah, Henry VIII. My last cruise before the pause had the British musical comedy SIX in production. I have been to Cabo San Lucas on my Panama Canal cruise from LA. It's going to be hot (86F) and sunny today. Ugh, my eyes feel like they want to flare, so I'm using extra drops and will keep dark glasses on. I'm about to head out to physical therapy in a little bit. @grapau27 The rabbits are cute, as long as they don't eat anything you're growing in the garden. Please add my Birthday wishes for Fr. David. @StLouisCruisers Nice photos of Cabo. @kazu I hope the "cupping" works to loosen that scar tissue. I'm glad Ivan's blood work looked ok. I can empathize with the arthritis. I hope the injections do the trick and he can get off the meds. @Denise T Congrats on the cruise booking. @ottahand7 Lovely flowers. @cruising sister Great news about baby Murphy! Continued prayers for her. @Quartzsite Cruiser Thanks for the Cabo photos. @GTVCRUISER Great photos. @dfish Sorry you had a bad night. Thanks for the recipes. @0106 I agree that recent attempts to ban and censor books is comtemptible. @RMLincoln I'm glad DH's reaction to the drops has abated. I'm glad your family is ok; the flooding in Hudson Valley and Vermont is terrible. @durangoscots Oh my on your friend being down for a couple of days after a fall. An alert device would have been a savior. Or I have echo dots on all floors and could yell for Alexa to call a contact. Also my Apple watch lets me call for help. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for those with something to Celebrate. Only a couple of pics since mine are similar to others posted. At the glass factory in Cabo

  19. Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily @richwmn. Kittens are cute, but none here. I really like Pina Coladas. I have an old teddy bear around here somewhere. Good quote. I'd take the meal with some meat, and pass on the drink. If I could get the wine, I'd drink it. I'll salute the Episcopal Church, of which I'm a member. I haven't been to Scotland. We're finally dry today after several days of rain. It was foggy this AM, but the sun is coming out. More rain later in the week. I'm still hobbling around due to knee pain. I have PT tomorrow, so maybe that'll help, although it's more for quad and hip flexor strengthening. @StLouisCruisers I hope all is well with the mammogram; I get mine next week. Thanks for the Scotland photos. @kazu Hoping that Ivan's tests are ok. @cruising sister Good to hear that baby Murphy showed good signs over the weekend. Prayers that her tests today show good results. The wellness spa for you sounds like a good plan for that week of DS's death anniversary. @Denise T Keep up the good work. If you need medication, maybe one of the older generic ones can be prescribed, or the doctor has a copay card to help with the expense of newer ones. @cat shepard Enjoy your visiting family. @ottahand7 Congrats to your niece on her engagement. @Seasick Sailor Awww, a new fur baby addition to the family! And you've got a very busy social schedule. @marshhawk I hope DH doesn't have a new eye infection, but if he does that it responds quickly to drops. I'm glad you got a new campaign. @dfish That's odd about the Red Bay issues and possibly not stopping there. When I was in Germany there are a lot of Middle Eastern places for take out, and we had wraps that looked like those but they had lamb or beef in them. @Quartzsite Cruiser Thanks for the great photos. @RMLincoln Congrats to your DGD on her engagement! @grapau27 Congrats on another cruise booked. @smitty34877 I'm glad you were spared the worst of the terrible rains. Prayers for good reports at the appointments. And nice to have DS there to help. @kochleffel Aw, Fergus was such a cute kitten. Prayers for the Care List and a Toast to tall those with something to Celebrate.

  21. Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. Sugar cookies are ok, but not my favorite. I think the horizon calls all of us cruisers. Since being retired, I stick to comfy clothes and don't dress up much. Interesting quote. I like the meal, pass on the drink, can't afford the wine. I'm watching Wimbledon tennis now. My SA/Antarctica cruise left from San Antonio, as there was a strike affecting Valparaiso, but I only have pictures of the port. It's a rainy, gloomy day here today with thunderstorms. I'm glad it wasn't yesterday as there was a big Ed Sheeran stadium concert. So I'll be inside. My knees are hurting from all the steps to do laundry yesterday, and the rainy weather doesn't help. @grapau27 Thank you for the link to Fr. David's sermon. @aliaschief Great job on the weight loss! @smitty34877 Sorry to hear everyone was up during the night. This weather is conducive to naps, so I hope that can happen. @kazu Good to hear that Ivan seems to be doing somewhat better. Fingers crossed for good test results for him. @0106 As usual, thanks for the context of the quote. @cruising sister Good to hear that baby Murphy is stable. Happy Birthday to DGD. @ottahand7 Nice that you got to meet the folks from across the lake. Thanks for the photos. @cunnorl I hope you get the ok to resume playing golf. @ger_77 Your Summerfest sounds like it was a grand success! Prayers for the Care List and Cheers to those Celebrating.

  23. Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. Face painting can be fun - I sometimes had it done at Penguins hockey games. I like blueberries and eat them like a snack. I'll pass on motorcycles, as I don't think they're safe in traffic. Interesting quote. I like pad thai. pass on the drink, and yes to the malbec. I've never been to Omaezaki or anywhere in Japan. It's going to be another warm day, up to 86F, 67% humidity. I'll be doing stuff inside, mainly laundry. The going up and down to the basement won't be fun for my knees, but it's helping strengthen my legs hopefully (I go slowly and hold onto the handrail). BFF's pool pump pooped out, so he's not a happy camper; a new motor is on order. @grapau27 Your garden room is lovely and inviting. @kazu It sounds like Ivan is starting to improve, thankfully. @smitty34877 I hope both Lou and Tana are having a good day, as well as you and the rest of the family. @cruising sister Continued prayers for little Murphy and the family. At least the test of the repair was good. @marshhawk Some of your symptoms sound like carpal tunnel. The pain/numbness can go down into the hand and up to the elbow. Have they checked for that? It's especially common in people on keyboards all the time. @Denise T Good luck on getting the sugars down. @Quartzsite Cruiser Prayers that the NPH gets fixed soon and DH is good to go! @ger_77 Have fun at the bbq, once the work part is out of the way. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers to those Celebrating.

  25. Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily @richwmn. Yes to Chocolate Day! I wish we could have global forgiveness. I never had a father daughter walk as I was raised in a single female household. Funny quote; some stuff I put off for too long, like sorting through all the stuff I don't need any more. Pass on the meal (fish), drink and wine. A salute to Martina. The cancelled 2020 NA cruise would have gone to Civitavecchia. Thanks for all the photos. I've been to Rome, but on a land trip. It is hot and sticky here. I'm popping in between appointments. I was up and out earlier for an Ortho appointment to check on my knees since the fall. The right one is still quite painful. I declined a steroid injection today. We talked about eventual left knee replacement and maybe using a cane at times. I cancelled my haircut, although as it turns out I could have made it there in time. Then PT in early afternoon. @mamaofami Prayers for your friend Judi, that her passing is peaceful. And hugs to you. @StLouisCruisers I hope there is something that can be done for Mark. @cruising sister Many prayers for baby Murphy that she overcomes the complications and has a good surgical recovery. @smitty34877 Excellent news on the pathology report! @ger_77 Your Summerfest sounds like a fun time. And so sweet of DH to get that purse for you. @marshhawk Sorry about the work situation. I hope the PT starts to help your pain. @NextOne Prayers for only good results from your test today. @kazu I'm glad your vet was so thorough, and I hope the new meds help Ivan. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers to those with something to Celebrate.
