I would like to blame the wind on my score, but I was not very good. Second round this year. First round without pain, as I got a script for Voltaren and Celebrex. It was nice to not have pain. It sucked having a bad golf swing. There's a lot you can do to relief pain. There's also a lot that you can try to do about a bad golf swing (lessons, YouTube videos, new golf clubs) but I've found that none of that really helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully results are negative and arrive much sooner than previous tests😍 Thank you, Debbie. We were able to do the Happy Dance today, and way much sooner than last time! All 4 of our had our results within the hour! Shame on that woman with regard to the Canadian Club shortage. Some people have to grow up! I feel badly for the poor crew members that have to put up with people like that. I saw on FB that my cousin was on your Anthem cruise last week, playing the Wheel of Fortune with a group onboard.😊 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the converter that I use/suggest when someone post a .mov from an iPhone and the android phone can’t play them. You might want to bookmark the sight. When I looked at the sight today I couldn’t verify that the WMA files would convert but thought they would. ‘Before you go on your next cruise you might want to check what the High efficiency pictures option is set on. You can find it under camera settings-Picture formats. Although it says it saves space, it also notes that some apps and websites don’t support HEIF pictures. I still think that is why Debbie had problems posting pictures. Also under the same area there is an option to save raw copies. If that is on you will be saving both RAW and JPEG pics. I have mine off. If I get back to using Lightroom/Photoshop I might turn on RAW but for now I think the JPEG pics are great. Thanks for the camera suggestions. I need to start playing with it as the cruise is 22 days away. I am usedto taking JPEG photos. Occasionally I would take RAW photos with my Cannon camera. I take it the 50 mega pix camera in this S22 will take up more storage space and take longer to upload to Cruise Critic than the pics taken with my S8 (12 MP camera)? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We read there was a bad wreck not far from here and really tore up a telephone pole. In our neighborhood all wires are underground so when they went out I figured it was a wreck out on the main road. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also a lot that you can try to do about a bad golf swing (lessons, YouTube videos, new golf clubs) but I've found that none of that really helps. Yeah, I have tried most of those. When I was young, I learned to play golf with a ladies 7 iron hitting balls along the lake front at the lake house. When I was a bit older, I hit all of those balls with a driver into the lake off a point. Later after I got married and on the day Ronald Reagan was shot we went down to the lake house, and I got my fishing rod and waders out (around the first of April) and waded out and caught a pile of fish, and as I was walking in the lake with my waders on, I kept stepping on balls, so I put them in my waders, while catching a pile of fish. When I got out of the water and went back to the house with a couple of fish for dinner (White Bass were running big time), I dumped the golf balls in the drive. We watched Indiana beat my Tarheels in the Final Four (Isaiah Thomas), that summer we moved to Chapel Hill I went to the Economics department at UNC in the doctoral process, and life was never the simple same. At that time I was about an 8 handicap. While in Gradual School, I played rarely. The UNC course, was recently redesigned by Jack Nicklaus because his son was on the UNC golf team along with Davis Love. I became friends with the golf coaches at Duke thru my bowling skills (a sport I was actually very good at), and I was given Carte Blanche to play the Robert Trent Jones Duke course paying about 10 bucks to play anytime they had times available. Still didn’t play much for a long time. Moved back home and was still borderline single digit handicap. Then working full time at the bottom of the food chain. I didn’t play enough to have a handicap. Moved up the food chain played more golf and was a 12 for years. Then about 12 years ago got promoted to boss of the company I work for, and upgraded club, and I have ranged between 15 and 18 as a handicap ever since. I used to hit it 300 from the tee on my good days, now 250-260. My 3 wood and my 3 hybrid both only go about 220. I am still pretty long with my irons, 8 iron is about 155. That said the club I belong to is a beast, Payne Stewarts dad was the pro back in the day. I shot 97 I only had one par on the front nine and 3 on the back I hit back to back balls out of bounds off the tee on number 7. Massive hook. One of the reasons I went from a 12 to a super high handicap, was I always hit a draw that sometimes was a hook. To, score at the new course, you have to be able to hit a fade, I spent two years learning how to make the ball move right. When I am in the groove, I can play that nice fade, but it is so long, I am rarely hitting a wedge into the par fours, and I can’t reach any of the Par 5s in two. So….. it is hard. Still love playing, but it is hard. I know TMI jc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are using the Voltaren topically (you did not specify pills or cream) then I have no issue at all. Taking boths meds internally could be problematic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare xpcdoojk Posted April 1, 2022 #52822 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Definitely topically. Just the cream, rubbed on my right elbow and shoulder. I took the pill the first night, and my arm and shoulder woke me up just like without the pill. The next night with the cream, and the pill, it was a blissful night, I woke up thinking my arm should be hurting, and I was amazed it wasn’t. Since then I have weaned myself off the pill. Can’t tell any difference at night. I did take one when I played golf Tuesday with food pre-golf. JC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the 4 of you have a wonderful cruise with smooth sailing and beautiful weather.🥰 We have been very fortunate with such nice weather these past 2 weeks. We have 2 sea days back to bayonne. Tomorrow will be our last warm sunny day. Yes, it is difficult to watch people fuss over the stupid stuff. Especially when there are much better options. We continue to be spoiled by the Head Waiter. He told us to expect another surprise Friday night.. We did discreetly give him a nice tip last weekend. We ate at Wonderland for Eric's Birthday today. We both really enjoyed the food and the presentation. Lots of fun! Edited April 1, 2022 by Sunshine3601 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
