MJSailors Posted February 24, 2022 #49752 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Again,catching up with all the posts and new conversations. @singinalotCrystal- You are being so helpful to your sister as her wedding planner. Your organization skills will help make the wedding day less stressful for her , her fiancé and her family. She is fortunate to have you ! Before Covid, I helped out at weddings at our church.Two women served as a team at the rehearsal and on the wedding day. We helped out with many things,from providing a lipstick to the mother of the bride who forgot hers to coating reluctant,but cute, flower girls and ring bearers to walk down the aisle. The most relaxed brides seemed to be those who had someone ,either a family member or a hired wedding planner deal with the details. Wishing your bride and groom a lovely day ! To all the other posters who are dealing with medical issues, I hope you have healing soon. To those traveling for vacation,bon voyage ! To those who have returned from a vacation, I hope you are thinking of your next one and planning that it happens soon. To those facing yucky weather,stay warm and safe. To all those that none of this applies to, I wish you good days ! MJ🙋🏻 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite sure if it's going to be just a wintry mix of sleet & ice or 5-8 inches of snow. Fingers crossed I get to play with the snowblower one more time! ✌️🌨️❄️ You are more than welcome to take a side trip to RI to tackle a few houses. I'm sure none of us @Momof3gurlz@Ocean Boywould mind a bit.

That last trip you and Nate had me thinking it wouldn't be long. Plus you probably (fingers crossed) won't have to go through all the logistics of testing. Speaking of drinks, has anyone tried the Lavender Lemon Drop? Right up there with an Expresso or Chocolate Martini! Celebrity has them, not sure about RC but they go down so nicely. Speaking of pain killers, have a bush whacker! DH tried it for the first time a few weeks ago, he was surprised he hadn't had one before.

I shudder to think how much snow has to fall before it becomes unplowable !" LOL I was thinking unplowable would be more like a dusting to an inch, hadn’t really considered the other extreme. But like you, I don’t want to find out! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapau27 Posted February 24, 2022 #49762 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Good evening. In England all men aged 65 are invited for an Aortic Abdominal Anuerism scan. I had mine yesterday and fortunately I don't have an Anuerism. Busy work day today. It was a high of 42°F and cloudy today. Our legal requirement to isolate in England ceased today. I hope everyone had a great day. Prayers 🙏 for the good people of Ukraine. Take care and stay safe. Graham. 15 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This list is a list of ones I’ve had and ones I’d like to try. Most of the frozen drinks most pool bars can make them. All the others depends a lot on how good the bartender is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very interesting ingredients. The Bushwacker is a cocktail invented in 1975 at the Ship's Store, Sapphire Pub at Sapphire Village in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. It is similar to a creamy, chocolate piña colada.Wikipedia Ingredients: 1 ounce Dark Crème de Cacao, 1 ounce Dark Rum, 1 ounce Kahlúa, More Preparation: Blend all the ingredients together in a blender, including the ice, and then strain into a hurricane glass. Place cherry on top of the drink as a garnish and serve. Whipped cream can also be added as a garnish to the top of the drink before the cherry. Served: Straight up Standard garnish: Maraschino Cherry, Nutmeg, Whipped cream 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I’d love to live in a house with a ground floor master bedroom…) I had a 90 year old friend who still trotted up and down the stairs. When she packed for a cruise, she would lock her suitcases (plural) roll them to the top of the stairs and give them a push. They stopped at the front door, and her limo driver would come and get them. When she came home, she would tip the driver to bring them upstairs. She always had $20’s and $50’s in her purse for tipping. Edited February 24, 2022 by jagsfan 8 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly is fun to go around the lakes and do tastings I enjoy red wines when I’m in the mood, but none of the color goes to my stomach. It all goes to my face! 5 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s funny when AR tries to make it look like the couple in last place has a chance to catch up in the end. It was more than obvious last night. We've gotten used to the show trying to make it look like a close race between the last 2 teams. I can't recall EVER having the last place team beat the second from last place team to the mat. We actually rewound the show last night to see how different the sky was between when Arun and Natalia finished compared to when Ryan and Dusty finished. Even though they tried to make it look like Arun and Natalia got lost, we're guessing that Ryan and Dusty were at least an hour after them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
