We received our second boosters in August of the old vaccine, because we are sailing at the end of the week, and I wasn't sure if the new boosters would be out in time. But they really rushed them right out, didn't they? 😃 I'm getting a little tired of all the royal family/Harry & Meghan speculative reporting. 😄 Where are you sailing to at the end of the week ? No , I don’t think they’ve rushed out the vaccine. They are not starting out from scratch every single time . I could ask my husband however I would get a long-winded and complicated answer with mRNA thrown in for good measure. Still feeling fine . 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time we flew down we brought Sabrett hot dogs and onion sauce! Every now and then he tells us some New York Italian moved there and opened a halfway decent pizzeria. I love the chicken fried steak so I would survive😳 It’s been years since I’ve had chicken fried steak with white gravy. My 2 requirements last month back in Texas was a Whataburger and a chicken fried steak. 😃 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years later I would make sure I got some while visiting my sister in Cincinnati. A couple of years ago, while in Ohio, We stop so I could enjoy one for the memories. After eating a couple bites I told Sharon to never let me do that again.... 😆 I guess our taste can change. In 2004 when I was working in Advertising I was at a Trade Show with several co-workers.One of the guys saw a WC and when we were leaving for the day he bought a Sack.I cannot recall how many were in the bag but he was the only one to buy any. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There Are 2 that I could walk to if I so desired. My weekends were spent in Bay Ridge and Bensonhurst. One of my friends lived and still lives on Bay 19th St. We sometimes went to the "Penthouse" in Bay Ridge. Ah yes, Wetsons! A couple of people on my Adventure Roll Call have been talking about going to WC when they get to NJ for our cruise. So crazy that WC is being discussed on both this thread as well as my RC We have cousins in Manalapan and when we get off the GSP we pass a WaWa .I have had many friends and co-workers who lived in Bensonhurst and I was always there.On our first date Toby and I went to Jahn’s on 86 St. We bought our first living room carpet on the other side of the street. The son of one of my friends was the house DJ at Peggy O’Neils and his future wife was a bartender there. I knew people who lived on Bay 19 St and moved to SI later on.In fact nearly everyone I knew in the area either moved to SI or NJ. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had several on Staten Island. We have 3 diners right here where I live in NJ When I was in my teens and early 20’s ,every Friday night and Saturday night everyone seemed to be in the neighborhood diner to discuss everything that happened earlier in the evenings ,similiar to the movie Diner. When I was living in Canarsie there were three Diners that were always mobbed on Saturday night.One is still open.We have good diners in LI and have been to several in SI and NJ in recent years. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They served in the service and that’s what the uniform is about imo. What about non-Royals? If someone was in the service can they still wear their uniform to a special event? That’s exactly what I think. I am afraid the rules are set by Buckingham Palace and are well known 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Momof3gurlz Posted September 20, 2022 #71722 Share Posted September 20, 2022 My procedure went well today. One very small polyp removed, Dr said it didn’t look like anything to worry about. Should have the results in about a week. I’ve just woken up from a 3 hour nap after very little sleep last night. Looks like I have some catching up to do here. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Anniversary 🥂 7 hours ago, h20skibum said: Yesterday was, what has become a new normal weekday for us. We spend every weekday, all day at our daughter’s house, helping her with anything she needs done. We have all been going for walks at the lake, but we do not get there before sunrise any days, because the grandkids need to get off to school. They say it is important that she keeps up with exercise. Speaking of exercise, I know I have mentioned here before that I use a Fitbit tracker. Well, yesterday was seven years since I began wearing one. I have to admit, they do give you a little more incentive to keep moving, and I have a “family”, much like this one, that does daily challenges. Anyhow, it appears that in three more months time, I will have walked the equivalent to one time around the world. (No wonder I go through so many pair of tennis shoes) Even the last month, I have picked up the pace a little. Today, more of the same. Heading out to walk with our daughter. Better to do it now, when it is 57°, than later when it is 80°. That’s quite an accomplishment! 25 minutes ago, Ourusualbeach said: I finally got through to my Dr's office this morning after trying to call them all day yesterday.

Andy goes every 3 years due to polyps, while I’ve been on a 5 year schedule. I guess now that I’ve had one removed I can look forward to this fun experience more often 🤪. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
