However, to be honest, that is when I triple the amount of rum in my rum and coke; 😁 I would NEVER dilute my rum with coke. I would want the fullest medicinal benefit possible under such circumstances. But who am I to say what is best or works for you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nini Posted April 2, 2021 #1652 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Doug R. We are all pulling for you! Our two daughters are stopping at 2 each, so a total of 4 will be it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could possibly work with an adequate supply of rum (skip the coke). There's no way we would attempt it with our 13! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got off to a flying start in the grandchildren department with the arrival of triplet girls 12 years ago so with 4 daughters it was real easy to run the count up to 10, especially when one of them married a man with two children from a previous marriage.

Wow! That is pretty cool! At least I have the one to shower with girlie things. It is tough with the grandsons because we never had boys and DH had 3 sisters.

Triplet girls? I knew twin boys whose last name was Triplett. Thus, they were the Triplett twins. At the same time, I knew a set of triplets who mere named Moore! I don't think any of them were named, Les though. In Spanish, would that be mas o menos? This is getting very taxing! Maybe I need to open some of that Rum or a gallon of my favorite vintage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nini Posted April 2, 2021 #1661 Share Posted April 2, 2021 My Great Grandmother had 13 kids. Six of those were 3 sets of twins. I thought for sure that maybe I would have a set, but no.

I am scheduled for a follow up with the urologist on April 14th. My oncologist, who removed two large benign tumors from my midsection two years ago is watching over his shoulder. Spring has left us for a couple of days, but Easter Sunday promises to be spring beautiful! @nini, Congrats on the impending arrival of your fourth grandchild!! We have 10. You can never have too many grandkids. Prayers for a good report...waiting is so hard. Please keep us posted 🙏 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoriPhil Posted April 4, 2021 #1666 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Our county, which had a positivity rate below 5% is now over 7% and rising with hospitalizations also on the rise. Spring breakers and now Easter gatherings will slam us hard. Come on people, wear the stinkin masks for just a little longer! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently anywhere you go we have to wear masks 😷, I know it’s for greater Brisbane but may also be to the entire state. Once at home, in your own car with family or sitting down at a restaurant etc. you can remove your mask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky TGO Posted April 5, 2021 #1669 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Hi to all of my Cruise Critic friends, At this time I’m not doing well at all. Two of my very good friends husband & wife just died from the virus. They both got sick at the same time and went to the same hospital and died the same day within hours of each other. I feel awful at this time. Stay Safe My Friends, Tony 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
