Royal Caribbean Cruisers -- How Are Things Where You Are? (was "Routine" ​ 😁 ​day in lockdown... how was yours?)


Recommended Posts

Yay!!  it's working.   Apparently there was an issue when files copied over from old phone it set up main email address for an address that doesn't exist so security settings were blocking me until he changed the address to an  active working Gmail acct. 

He said some other samsung apps were not working due to this error but I didn't even try to use those apps.

Any lonely towels basking in the sun (aka chair hogs).


Some but many of the towels get put away as people leave the pool. At around 2 pm one of the pool crew went along and cleaned up towels on loungers that had no items or people present. I think many large pools and the beach people are scattered very well. It’s not at full capacity and today and tomorrow are big turn around days. Maybe T will be different on Monday.

We live about 600 miles from Galveston so we have considered driving.  Last time we went we flew.  Considering the cost of gas it would not cost much more to fly but I just remembered if we drove I could buy a bunch o gulf shrimp to bring home!  Last time we flew in the same day of departure and almost didn’t make it.  Not worth it anymore.  If we end up together can you imagine the live review!  

 

Yes we could do a dual combined review. Let me know what you decide.

They didn't have Pappy on my last visit but even if they did, too rich for my blood also.  Now if they have a Weller 12, I might seriously consider it.


Anytime you can find Weller 12 or Antique 107 if a reasonable price but it. I won the drawing to purchase a EH Taylor Small Batch Bottled in Bond. $46 MSRP. A good friend of mine got me a bottle for my retirement gift. He paid $170 on an internet liquor site.

Why didn't the sunset picture post sideways like the Windjammer one?

@Sunshine3601 Did you go check out the phone yet?  
Still somewhat windy today but getting warmer.  Just got some more dirt for gardening.  Time to go play.  I love when it warms up.  If this moves up to y’all like it usually does you should be getting warm in the next couple of days.  I was hoping to get some plants out this week.  Night temperature will be in the 50’s after tonight but forecast to drop back into the 30’s towards the end of next week.  Some of my tomatoes are getting too big.  Plan to re-pot a few again.

I am on my laptop now but when I jump back onto my phone I will send you some photos of my seedlings.    They are doing great!    I rotated them this morning as my tomato plants are getting rather tall but will be a couple more weeks before I can plant outdoors in my zone.    

Today was raining this morning then sunny this afternoon but a high of 49 and breezy.   I ran a bunch of errands today knowing tomorrow I cannot be far from a toilet as I prep for my colonoscopy Monday morning.   I am hoping tomorrow will be a little warmer without the breeze so I can get my hands dirty and start working on setting up core gardening for my beds.

this week we are suppose to be in the 60's and 70's with a possible high of 80 on Wednesday or Thursday.

Started a couple sunflower seeds beginning of the week since I had some extra pots left from when I picked out the weeks one of other seedlings.

Wow. The tomato plants are big!  I thought mine were getting tall. Mine grew to the lights so Today I bought pots like you have and replanted a couple AGAIN!  I will repot some more tomorrow.  I also adjusted my shelves to give them more space.  I didn’t know you did core gardening.

I haven’t seen a horizontal taken pic post wrong yet, only upright.  It’s like CC wants all pics horizontally no matter how they are taken.  What doesn’t make sense to me is why a little crop that leaves the pic pretty much upright and possible to post.  🤔

@Ocean Boy I thought I would try shooting low light.  I shot these in pro mode and did No editing. While in pro mode I was able to adjust setting and see the adjustments on scene.  Try it out sometime.

They look better on the phone.  I think CC downgrades the pics so they don’t take up as much space.

@Sunshine3601  I made no adjustments to the shelves in the first pic.  I basically separated them equally.  In the second pic the top shelf was adjusted half way down today.  Before the adjustments, some of the plants in the second pic were growing up to the light.  Thus the adjustments.  I ordered another light to help out. I think if I dropped gardening I could afford one more cruise! One week cruising or several months gardening…….. 🤔

It’s this exactly.  I crop the sideways photos just slightly and they work as they should.

We had a dinner at Sandals equal to Chops. Sideways food pics will have to work. To lazy to crop them, to upright them.  Salad to represent the vegetarians.  I had the pumpkin soup, and the oysters Rockefeller.  No pics of them.

We had to many sides to note, but thought I’d feature the lobster mac and cheese.

We split the Oreo cheesecake with nutmeg ice cream.

Poor guy!  That sounds painful.   Did they have to shave a lot of hair off?

 

I have a Mohs procedure scheduled next week for a tiny spot right under my eye.   I used florouracil cream for some other areas but they didn't want me putting the cream that close to my eye.  

Just a little in front of his ear. I think that’s the cream he had to use on his head and he said it burned like crazy. Wishing you the best with your surgery.

Update on Kenzie’s aunt.

She is out of ICU but as of yesterday she was not doing well.  She got to the point where she asked her doctor if she was going to die.  A small portion of the lung was collapsed and she has a lung abscess.  
Today it sounds like things are finally turning.  This is a text from her mom this morning.

 

She had a great night best one yet. Tube is annoying and sore but nothing like her chest hurt!!! She didn't cough much at all!! She is coughing some this morning but that's good!!! She says she feels so much better!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏

 

So thankful to get better sounding news from her.  Thanks for the continued prayers.

Glad to hear she’s getting better. Hoping that continues.
