JazzyV

Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. Jeeps can be fun. Interesting that Victims of Violence Wholly Day marks the anniversary of MLK's assassination. I will honor all victims of violence. Vitamin C is important for health. Interesting quote. Oh no, I have no leftovers here! Pass on the drink and wine. I haven't been to Galway. A good day in history. Today also marks the tragic loss of 3 police officers here on 4/4/2009. It's cloudy and cool here, with rain/snow showers. Still lots of roads closed due to flooding, especially downtown where there are 3 rivers. Also lots of creeks flooding, threatening some businesses and homes. I'm fine. The person is here cleaning the rooms affected by the radiator leak. I've been up since 3:50AM, so I hope I can get a nap later. @aliaschief Thanks for taking us along on your adventure. @Haljo1935 Tough decisions between your eye procedures and your shoulder surgery. @Heartgrove Good to hear you've come up with alternative cruise plans. @summer slope Nice to hear that Mike is making some progress. @dfish Sorry it's going to take a few days to see improvement with the eye. If it doesn't improve, go get seen again. I have some ham in the freezer that I was thinking of taking out, so maybe the first recipe. @smitty34877 Good to hear you all had a decent night last night. I hope the calmness can continue and that Tana remains stable. Prayers for you all. @Seasick Sailor I hope Allen gets some relief soon. @Quartzsite Cruiser I'm glad you made it home safely last night. Great Galway photos. @Lady Hudson Your great grandson is adorable! @grapau27 I'm pleased to hear that Sarah is doing well; and a new boyfriend doesn't hurt! @Vict0riann Safe trip to the airport tomorrow. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for those Celebrating.

Rainbow over Great Bay Phillipsburg

Terry, I had tears reading your post. It's good that Tana could participate in the discussion and make her wishes known. I'm glad you are getting the help so that all of you can get some rest. Prayers that she will stabilize. Please know that you have many people holding Tana and the family in their hearts and prayers.

Too late to edit my post, but I inadvertently called @USN59-79 Ray Jack. And I also wanted to add @Horizon chaser 1957's DD in our prayers. @dfish Debbie, I'm glad you got a diagnosis and treatment for the eye. And that you're proceeding toward the nerve ablation. @Quartzsite Cruiser Thanks for checking in. I imagine you'll be home soon?

Good afternoon. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. I haven't seen a Fan Dance. I love rainbows. I'll salute film scores as they add so much to movies. Yogi Berra just being Yogi. I like the meal, pass on the drink and yes to the wine. I haven't been to Quepos. An important day in history, but there's good and bad to cell phones. It's been raining and raining here. The big rivers and creeks are high. Some schools closed due to flooded roads. I made it to my Cardiology appointment, leaving early before they closed the parkway. I came home a different way. Lots of walking again, as I had to get a CXR after the appointment. By then my leg was on fire, but I survived. Now I'm sleepy and hope to get a nap in, after a 3 hour night. BFF just texted that he had 3 biopsies done at his skin check; let's hope he won't need Mohs again. I heard about the earthquake in Taiwan. I worry about @USN59-79 Jack and his family. @SusieKIslandGirl Bon Voyage! @aliaschief Thanks for the great photos. @kazu I sure hope your acupuncture helps you and alleviates the burning and pain. @cat shepard I so appreciate your prayers for my pain relief. @dfish I hope the eye continues to improve. I hope your appointment results in your getting set up for the nerve ablation. I'm glad you're getting your eye looked at. @Heartgrove Sorry to hear about the cruise cancellation, especially after you had gotten your flights and hotels. What did they say was the reason? I hope you can make a satisfactory substitute. @smitty34877 I am so sorry to hear that Tana's condition has progressed. I would imagine it's hard not having much you can do to assist her. I hope she can be kept comfortable. I'm glad you were able to get some rest. Prayers for Tana, you and the family. @marshhawk I'm glad you are safe from the storms and hope your friends were as well. I hope you can get DH's weight up some. @RMLincoln Tough times for your DSIL's family, having to make decisions. @Seasick Sailor Prayers that Allen gets relief from the Dupixent and that it gets covered. @Vict0riann Woohoo that DD got a good report from the Ortho doc and that you can go on your cruise. I hope we get to see you at sail away. @Nickelpenny I'm glad you mood is better, and congrats on being a 4-start Mariner! @Cruzin Terri I hope you're doing ok. @HAL Sailer Thinking of you and your DH. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for those Celebrating.

Lots of warnings on the news about storms tonight. There has already been some flooding. Supposedly the most rain in a single day since 1977! I just got an email that a section of the parkway I need to take tomorrow (called the "bathtub" because it floods often, despite pumps to avoid that) for my Cardiology appointment, will close at 10am or earlier due to anticipated flooding. Everyone stay safe!

Great photo of Ren! I've only been taking Gabapentin, which is supposed to help nerve pain. My PCP added Cymbalta, another med for nerve pain, but it gave me headaches and dry mouth, so I stopped it (I also read horror stories of people on it long term trying to get off. It's also used for depression). Ibuprofen doesn't help it. And I haven't had anything stronger, like a narcotic type medication.

Good afternoon. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily @kazu @richwmn and maps @rafinmd. Ferrets are ok. I don't know the produce manager at my usual grocery store, but they have a nice assortment. I like the occasional PB&J(am) sandwich. Good quote. The meal sounds yummy. Pass on the drink and yes to the wine. I haven't been to Townsville. It has been pouring rain here since last night, with thunder at times. There are flood watches. This afternoon late and tonight are expected to be worse, with rain, hail and higher winds, and possibly a tornado watch. At least it's not snow, like the northeast is going to get. I've been up since around 3:45 AM. I had an early appointment and knew the parkway would be bad with the rain. Luckily there was a little lull when I left, but raining hard when I got to the hospital. No handicapped parking spaces to be had. And the elevators near the office were out, supposedly since last Wednesday! So much more walking was involved. My hearing and tinnitus are about the same. Then I went to get lab work, some of which is already coming back. I ran home for a quick minute, then off to PT. Oh the pain - too much walking, rain, who knows? @seagarsmoker You can have some of our rain! @StLouisCruisers Ren and his team seem to be doing well. The stocking is gorgeous! @cat shepard Good luck with jury duty. I'm sure Bindi wonders what's going on. @dfish Sorry about the eye. I'd think allergies would affect both. Could you have pink eye? @smitty34877 I'm sorry to hear that Tana had a rough night and is coughing. I hope it's not pneumonia again. Good that the hospice nurse may take a look at her. @aliaschief Beautiful pictures. I'm glad it's such a great cruise for you. And you're sharing with Dailyites who want to see! @summer slope I'll add Mike and Sue to the Care List. @Nickelpenny Sorry you didn't feel well enough to watch the launch last night. And to hear your knee x-rays report. Sadly I'm there with you, with a recommended left knee replacement.I had many steroid injections which stopped working. Then Synvisc, which didn't help. And because of my issues with the right leg, I've abused the left leg lately. I hope your other knee can qualify for the clinical trial. @marshhawk I hope your appointment with the oral surgeon goes well. @RMLincoln I'm doing the happy dance about DH's eye results after surgery! @bennybear I'm drooling over those chocolates. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers to those Celebrating.

Good afternoon. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. Rabbit, Rabbit, White Rabbit! No Tom Foolery here, and no April Fool fooling of anyone. Kind of sad Marilyn quote. I could like a charcuterie board. Yes to the drink and pass on the wine. I haven't been to Tokyo. Being an Apple person (except my PC), I'll salute today in history. It's been cloudy and raining, although there's a break in the rain now. Good sleeping weather, if one can sleep. Also storms tomorrow and Wednesday, and snow flakes Thursday and Friday. I have an ENT appointment tomorrow, and Cardiology on Wednesday, plus PT 2 days. I'm trying to get laundry done today, and also still sorting in the dining room. I have a lot of depression glass. I've already gotten rid of some when I had my DM's belongings auctioned, but still have too much. Also I need to find a riser for the upstairs commode, for after surgery. @cat shepard I used to want to do jury duty and was never called. @StLouisCruisers I'll support sourdough day, although I haven't been able to make any bread since last summer, since I can't stand for any length of time. I take my sourdough starter out of the fridge about once a month to feed it. I like your rabbits! Thanks for posting Lenda's photos. @kazu Yay for sunshine and for finding a sitter for Ivan. It is hard having someone new in your home, but prayers it'll be ok. @ottahand7 April 1 is a sad memory day for you. Hugs. @RMLincoln I hope DH Richard's eye appointment goes well. Sorry to hear that DSIL's family need to make hard decisions. Condolences on the loss of two people who were like family. @quilty964 The only hard part of sourdough can be getting the starter going at first, so that it's good and healthy. There can be activity at the beginning, that then disappears, but that's from bacteria you don't want. Once you get a good starter, it can usually be revived, even if neglected in the fridge. @1ANGELCAT I'm glad you had a nice brunch. While BFF and I were at one yesterday, the table next to us was already scheduling for Mother's Day! @bennybear Excellent photos from Tokyo. @ger_77 So sad about Gord. Bless you for dropping everything to be there with Ollie. Condolences to his family and friends. She is very lucky to have you and Maurice as friends. @aliaschief It looks like you're having an amazing time! Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for those Celebrating.

Good evening. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. Happy Easter to those who celebrate. I haven't used a bunsen burner since college. I'll salute Cesar Chavez and don't know any medievalists. Interesting quote. The meal sounds ok, pass on the drink and yes to the wine. I haven't been to today's port. After a cloudy start, it's gotten partly sunny and up to 60F. Then rain tonight and the next 3 days. I had a late start to the day. I slept about 3 hours, and then fell asleep sitting up for 2 hours. It was 10:30 when I woke up. So after a shower, I watched services online. BFF and I went out to a buffet for early dinner. Now I feel like a nap after that large Italian meal. It's been a bad day pain wise, so maybe some time in the recliner would help. @sailingdutchy Bon Voyage! @RedneckBob Welcome Home! Great sunrise photo. @kazu I hope you've found the right sitter for Ivan. @dfish I hope your beef wellington turned out well. I've always wanted to make one. @aliaschief Gorgeous photos yesterday and today. Thanks for sharing. @Nickelpenny I'm glad to hear your cold seems to be leaving. @cunnorl Happy Birthday to your DS! @ger_77 Sorry there isn't better news about Gord; continued prayers. Easter at your house sounds like fun! @kochleffel I hope you continue to feel better every day. @Vict0riann I hope DD's appointment goes well, and that you are able to cruise. @Quartzsite Cruiser Nice photos. Safe travels tomorrow or Tuesday. @bennybear Excellent photos as usual. Thanks. @Cruising-along Thanks for sharing the photo of you all. @lazey1 So good to hear that you had a good cruise and are feeling well. Sorry about the weather for embarkation and debarkation, but it happens and those people yelling need to understand it's mother nature, not HAL. Prayers for the Care List and a Toast to those Celebrating.

NA toot! Only one 😞,

just made it in time!

Good afternoon. Thanks for the FR/Daily @kazu @richwmn and maps @rafinmd. I will salute most doctors and Earth Hour/Day. I always fold laundry as soon as the dryer stops, in order to minimize any wrinkles. I'm not sure what to make of the quote, but it is from Oscar Wilde, so I'll take it with a grain of salt. The meal sounds good. Pass on the drink and wine. I haven't been to Rio. A good deal was had on buying Alaska. It's cloudy and gloomy looking here, 48F. Rain almost all of next week. I slept a couple of hours, then a couple more later this morning (I had taken benadryl for my injection). Mornings seem to be the worst. Once I get out of bed, I have lots of leg pain, so I've been staying in bed until quite late. It eases up a bit later in the day. I am so tired of not being able to do anything. Sorry to whine. @ocean sounds Bon Voyage! @Suslor Happy Birthday! Welcome home. @cruzn single Happy Birthday! @USN59-79 Happy 61st Anniversary to you and Sara! @lazey1 Welcome home! @summer slope I'm glad you're starting to feel better. I hope DH's bruise isn't too painful. @aliaschief Thanks for the great photos from Angkor Wat. @Denise T I hope Chase doesn't require any more treatment for the sarcoma and that it doesn't come back. @StLouisCruisers Lovely Rio photos. I'd like to get to see the Christ the Redeemer statue one day. @Seasick Sailor I'm glad Allen got his prescription approved. And good news that Oliver seems ok. @ger_77 Ollie is lucky to have you in her life. I hope Gord is able to be extubated soon. @ottahand7 Thanks for sharing the Rio photos. @Nickelpenny I can sympathize with you about your cold; feel better soon! Good news about the cruise. What procedure are you having done, if you don't mind sharing? Nice photo from Angkor Wat. @RMLincoln Sorry to hear that DSIL was transferred back to the hospital; I hope it's nothing too serious. @Quartzsite Cruiser Great photos from Petropolis and Rio. @luvteaching Hugs.

Good evening. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. Blessed Good Friday to those who celebrate. I think we take virtual vacations looking at everyone's photos of the different ports. I salute Mom & Pop businesses. Mermaids are fun creatures. Typical Capote quote. I like the meal (nice and low carb). Pass on the drink and the wine costs too much. I haven't been to Nuuk. A good day in history - I enjoyed seeing the terra cotta warriors when I was in China. It's a nice sunny day, 51F, quite windy. Rain tomorrow. I didn't get much sleep, but stayed in bed watching tv and fell back asleep for 2 hours until 9:30. Then I had to hustle to get ready to go to PT. I really didn't feel like going, but I went. Then picked up some meds at the pharmacy. I had to use the rollator going into the pharmacy as a cane wasn't enough. Then BFF came over. I didn't feel like going anywhere, so he picked up fish sandwiches from a nearby church fish fry, and we had an early dinner. He helped me move a few things and put the swags back up in the DR. Bon Voyage to @Smmessineo, @POA1 & @Huskerchick! @StLouisCruisers Great Nuuk photos. I'm glad DD is safely home. @summer slope @cat shepard @dfish Thanks for the drink, wine and meal postings. @kazu Sorry to hear of the flooding and power outage. Thank goodness you have a generator. I hope you can find the perfect person to dog sit. @Seasick Sailor Oh no on Oliver being sick and throwing up that dental placker. I hope he's ok. So sad to hear about your friend's Mom and your other friend with lung issues. I heard about that cement truck driver; I hope he gets the harshest sentence available. @1ANGELCAT I hope the injection went well, with no headache. @ger_77 So kind of you to be there for your friend during this stressful time. I hope Gord (and Ollie) will be ok. Enjoy the family time! @Nickelpenny I hope your cold is short-lived. And congrats on the shout out and the duck. @Quartzsite Cruiser Lovely Nuuk photos. @summer slope I hope your aches ease soon. My DM used to recommend an epsom salts bath to relieve aches. @marshhawk If the numbness is the pinkie and ring finger, it's the ulnar nerve, which can be injured near the elbow. I had issues many years ago, and they thought they might have to move the nerve (it's unprotected near the elbow. It's the nerve that's the "funny bone" when hit accidentally), but luckily with doing some of the things you were recommended, it cleared up on its own. @smitty34877 Enjoy your time in NH. @SusieKIslandGirl Wow, there will be a lot of Dailyites on that cruise! @doobieb Welcome to the Daily! And to HAL. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for those Celebrating. From China 2005

Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Dialy. Blessed Holy Thursday to those who celebrate Easter. I'll salute MLB opening day, although we always have a bad team. I've never been in a hot tub. Good quote. Maybe on the meal, pass on the drink and wine ($$). I've never been to Zadar. It's sunny and going to be a nice Spring day today. I'd like to get some things done in the house, but it's tough. I can't stand more than a few minutes due to leg pain. I'd forgotten how bad it was before those 2 weeks of relief! BFF wants to go to a church fish fry tomorrow, but I don't know if I can tolerate it; we'll see. @summer slope Gentle hugs for your distress from soreness and bruises. @Crazy For Cats At least it's only a 2 day work week for you. @MISTER 67 I'm a hockey fan too, although I don't think the Pens will make the playoffs this year. @StLouisCruisers How far along is your grand nephew's pregnancy? @kazu Prayers that the financial issue and Ivan's away home work out. And I hope the river won't flood. @aliaschief Thanks for sharing your photos. @Haljo1935 Sorry the work situation is so stressful. @cunnorl That's a clever idea with the pasta bowls. @Lady Hudson I hope your DH's health concerns improve soon. @Mr. Boston Enjoy the train trip, and time with family. @ger_77 Prayers that Maurice qualifies for the AVR. I haven't heard of presenting a case before a panel, as here if the doctor thinks it's needed, it's done. Safe travels for your family this evening. @RMLincoln Sorry DH's appointment got cancelled. Bless you for discussing all the hard things with DB in regards to his DW's ongoing care. @bennybear Great photo. I always enjoy seeing bald eagles. Prayers for the Care List and a Toast to those Celebrating.

Oh my, what a morning! I'm glad your tests were ok, and I do suspect you'll feel it more tomorrow. I think you deserve one day on the Care List at a minimum.
