We are being hit with bad news today.  First, Charlie’s sister died after a long battle with Alzheimer’s.  Now my friend from Michigan called to let us know her husband is in the hospital with liver and esophagus problems.  They inserted a feeding tube and did biopsies.  We are praying for all.

Getting caught up today, and was sorry to read this.  Prayers to your family. 

[DaniDanielle]

Thanks.  Prayers are appreciated.

I am so very sorry to hear that Charlie's sister has passed away.  May she Rest in Peace.🙏

Prayers for Charlie's sister, and for your friend from Michigan and her husband.🙏🙏

(((Hugs to you and Charlie, Marietta)))🌹

Thank you, my friend just messaged me that it is stage 4 esophageal cancer spread to the liver.  I wish I could be in Michigan with them😢

I’m hoping to spend some time at St John’s Town Center either before we check-in or the next day.  

We had lived in Fernandina Beach for over a year before a friend took me to St. John’s.  OMG!!!  The Dillard’s there is better than the Lenox/Phipps Rich’s and Neiman Marcus in Atlanta in their heyday!!!  I LOVE that store!!  I bought a $300 dress I have absolutely nowhere to wear…except on cruises…😆

They are just saying Hint Hint, book another cruise.😁

We are on the Equinox March 4 and I looked port timetables to see if our ships would be neighbors at any port, but no such thing! We could have said hello or had a cold drink.

Bummer, that would have be awesome❣️

Thanks Bob!  Your memory is correct, we’ll be at the Margaritaville Hotel.  TacoLu sounds great as does Casa Marina. I’m a sucker for a rooftop bar so we’ll definitely try to get there. I’m hoping to spend some time at St John’s Town Center either before we check-in or the next day.  

Safe travels, Deb and Andy!  The two of you sure pack a lot of visits on your journeys to your cruises.  Our friends Carol and Andy went with two other couples to Margaritaville just two days ago to check the place out.  They said it is beautiful!  Their Margarita's were pretty good too, as well as their lunches while there.  Have a great time in the next couple of weeks!🥰

Sorry to hear of Charlie's Sister passing.   May she RIP🙏

Prayers for your Friend too.

And big hug for you and Charlie ((((((❤️))))))

Update:

 

I’m home after a successful surgery. The rip was a large one and I had some intestine poking out. I am sore but pain is doing ok. I have some good pain meds.

 

On another note my heart is heartbroken that what should be a day of celebration of our hometown Chiefs winning the Super Bowl got a dark shadow casted over us. While we don’t know all the information 1 is dead, multiple shot and injured. Thankfully our brave law enforcement ran towards the chaos and even citizens pursued and restrained the shooter. Still an active crime scene now as the investigation is ongoing. Any pain I have from the surgery is nothing compared to the pain, sadness, anger  and depression I feel that this happened for what should have been a great celebration.

Happy to hear your surgery went well.

Thanks. I’ve got more pain today but it’s tolerable. Just trying to take it easy.

I think one of the saddest things is in the beginning they know what’s happening to them.

I hope your pain goes away ,Greg.Have you ever tried meditation ?I have been meditating since I was in college.I have a mantra that I have been using many years and I meditate at bedtime.I am in a relaxed state and able to sleep pain free.

I watched the movie Oppenheimer today.My granddog who came here this afternoon for his week stay had no interest in watching the movie.I thought it was very good especially the last 40 minutes.

I know Fish Lips is said to have a great happy hour and where to get fish tacos. Lol what else do I need to know. 

 

Well hopefully I can get spectrum set up fast or I'll stay in a hotel room! I have lots of questions without answers. 

Sorry Jane, but I really don’t know anything about that area.

Thanks! I missed the Barbenheimer craze last summer. I finally caught the Barbie movie on MAX this past January & now I'll watch Oppenheimer this weekend. Then I'll finally be caught up on my summer viewing.  Just finished "Who is Erin Carter?" as well

I saw the Erin Carter last year .It was very good.

And probably asking people sitting out at the beach was biased lol. Oh we love fish lips for happy hour comment from those beach dwellers. I stopped in one place and no help, they ha died me a tourist map.

 

The people I was talking to just come down in the winter. Snow birds. I wasnt sure how to meet up with people who live there year round. Just assuming it will all work out. Me and my cousins are looking at trails and where to see birds. She comes down every march. I said come stay with me. 

 

None of it particularly informative, but I'm sure someone will know how to get set up. 

 

Meanwhile I gotta get thru taxes this year. One thing at a time. 

 

And again happy anniversary.
