We made it a family event at my house! All 3 of us got our flu and Omicron boosters at the same time in the same arm. We're all great, no side effects. I was even sick with a cold and was able to get it. I'm terrified of needles, and was instructed to look away as the shots were given. I honestly didn't even feel the Omicron one. I looked over after what I thought was the first shot and saw them cleaning me up. I was like "So when are we going to do this?" and the immunizer was like "All done"! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanted to get it done before we cruise end of October and with long enough buffer for flu shot. Did not want to take them together. We will have to compare who screams loudest! 😁🤣 We got our second booster last month. Mike opted to get the covid and flu shot together, but I wanted to wait. Got my flu shot 3 days ago. Definitely wanted the booster and flu shots before this trip. 6 hours ago, George C said: Got it from ship When I asked they said they were out. Guess they will have to mail them since I probably won’t be on the Allure again. 😥 Won’t fly to Galveston and won’t drive to Port Canaveral for her when she will be doing 3 and 4 day trips. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are called “ Church window cookies” Some recipes call them Stained glass cookies. I used my electric chocolate pan melter and it was so easy. Finished product Directions My husbands mom used to make and the spouse cannot wait till I make them. First time for me. Now that I know I can do it I ordered the colored mini marshmallows from Amazon. Be safe. That looks delicious ! It is the same recipe that you would use for chocolate bark except for the stick of butter . I’ve seen it with 1TBS of shortening or none at all . You can add crushed candy canes , M & M’s , or dried fruit for the holidays. Spread to desired thickness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not messed around with mine too much except for change some settings. Got a new magnetic mount. I hope it works better than the failed suction cup mount. I plan on taking it in the water today. I’m the kind of point and shoot person so I don’t do all kinds of settings. I’ll have to see how it works and go from there. 55 minutes ago, h20skibum said: Daughter picked it out locally. The kids had written personal notes to accompany Lucy on her journey.

Frequent showers and no sun. This weather may impact our next cruise. Much the same in Aruba today. Full cloud cover, and intermittent rain. But I was in the ocean already, I didn't care if I got wet! Higher seas now than we've had the first part of the week. I love finally feeling the ship move, but I feel sorry for anyone who might have motion sickness. Just because *I* love the motion of the ocean doesn't mean that everyone does. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the difference between the game back then and now. I don't disagree with you. I think back then, players & managers had more integrity for the game. The old Joe Demaggio quote when asked why he always played so hard: "Because it might be some kid's first time seeing me play & they might never see it again". 5 hours ago, Jimbo said: Still can't believe the Mets Blew a 10 game lead.

You are correct. The manager asked Ted if he wanted to sit to protect his .400 average. Technically, it was 3995 but they round up. Ted replied something to the affect of "I want more than my toenail on the line for 400". He went 6 for 8 in the double header & finished with a .406 average. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HBE4 Posted October 6, 2022 #73489 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Isn't the new Love Boat basically a *ahem* reality dating show? Basically nothing in common with the old show. It never occurred to watch it & I used to watch the old Love Boat show all the time. And Fantasy Island. Now that would make for a watchable dating show. Probabl would need to be on HBO.😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother in law has Parkinson's and has for about 5 years now. He is still able to hunt, fish and drive. He tells me that they have come along way in Parkinson's treatment that help minimize symptoms but they still have a lot more research to do if there is ever to be cure. He is part of walkathon fundraiser that the Parkinson's society does each year that we happily contribute to. They raise an amazing amount money each year. Hopefully one day soon they will have an effective, permanent answer. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to Parkinsons and other illnesses I have not been able to walk unassisted since 2016 .I am getting worse in that regard every day. When I was able to walk I did an annual Parkinsons Walk in NY..The last Walk that I attempted to do was in September 2019 with my wife holding me but I could not complete it.I get weekly e-mails from the Michael J.Fox Foundation and I am an online member.We have message boards and post there.I do not expect to see a cure in my lifetime.I hope I am wrong.. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like I’m not going to miss anything. I missed out on an hour of sleep watching that show that I can never get back. You truly are not missing anything. It was so disappointing. They didn't really show any parts of the ship. And the captain being involved with the nonsense that was going on was so ludicrous as if a ship's captain has nothing better to do. It is all about some stupid dating game. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BonTexasNY Posted October 7, 2022 #73500 Share Posted October 7, 2022 The original Love Boat Show was instrumental in opening up cruise industry popularity. It was an iconic show, and we welcomed the cast into our homes and looked forward to seeing them every week. I don't watch much TV now but watching a re-do of one of my favorite shows would not be on my agenda. Capt. Stubing - stern with a heart of gold Julie - perky Doc = womanizer from the get go Isaac - fun guy, best smile Gopher - cute as a button And, nobody can sing the opening Love Boat song like Jack Jones.
