Cuteness Alert!

When you have two new puppies it's hard to get one if not both to sit still long enough to take some pictures. Finally after about 3 weeks I got some decent shots of them. Here are Sir Charles "Charlie "(brown & white) and Lady Elizabeth "Lizzy." (black & white) sitting just long enough to have their pics taken.

 

 

 

 

 

Potty training still a little bit of a struggle, but with these faces we are more patient. They will get there.

Charlie has such a sweet, innocent face. 
Lizzy does, too, but with a touch of determination. 
Y’all are so fortunate to be living with those two!

Found out our state health department is distributing free test.  DW was able to pick 2 up at the library.  We are wanting to test before we are around the kids tomorrow night.  Caden has his first basketball game.

We arrived home this morning around 11 am from our cruise.   My neighbor came over to tell us that our County Health Dept was giving out free covid test kits today at a local park.    They gave out 4 kits per vehicle.     Sat in a huge line of cars that moved pretty quick as they had it very well organized.     Plus we ordered the 4 kits online from the federal website and we still have 3 kits from emed left (save them for the next cruise).     

How is your Daughter feeling today?

Good luck to Caden with his basketball game.     I am sure he will shine as he does with everything else🥰

Another cuteness alert....new profile pic.  Our pup, Stevie Nixx (the double x is a naming thing we've stuck to with our last few pets).

@singinalotThank you for sharing your Awesome photos.   I suspect your Grandmother's house will sell quick.      I guess you will miss your hikes in the beautiful trails near your home in CO but will enjoy lots of new strolls along the beaches when you move in coming months.

Debbie, I'm thinking of you, of the previous cancelled cruises, and how you were both looking forward to those 2 cruises...

 

If it's any "consolation", may be now you'll know the challenges in working from the ship and adequate solutions will be found for your next [and hopefully many many more] cruises.😘

OMG!    They are so precious, such sweet little faces that could never do anything wrong (at least not be in trouble for too long).

"Sick leave" or not, you gotta earn your keep 🤪

Thank you. We’re going to a neighborhood steakhouse probably more for me than for Dick. He’d rather eat toast at home than sit in a restaurant!

When the sick have recovered and Jon has gotten off his crutches, we’ll have our feast. Dick enjoys family celebrations. 

Enjoy whatever you do.    Happy Birthday Dick and I wish him many more happy healthy birthdays😍

That's great to see him feeling better and helping out with chores.  He looks very intent on doing a good job too!    Adorable😍

My husband takes Levodopa.  That’s why I asked. 

My mom started on that a few months ago, so far it seems to be helping.  Time will tell.

What does he take it for  and has he experienced side effects ?

Besides being the greatest thread in the history of cruise critic, I think one of the main reasons this thread was allowed to remain in place was for the clicks and traffic it created during the beginning of the pandemic when traffic was relatively low.  Im sure the traffic on this thread and “To add some humor” helped with the advertising income the last two years.  
 

Although I have never sailed on RCCL before, (elite on Princess and quite a few on NCL) I am now looking at it for future cruises due to the wonderful people on this thread.  
 

Hopefully this thread will remain for many years to come.

I have a friend who only cruises on Princess.He posts on CC.I am trying to convince him to read the posts here and to consider an RCI cruise.

Thank you Dani.     Yes it was sad to get off the ship today but at the same time we were truly happy with the 11 days we did have onboard.     

Eric couldn't believe the amount of work he has to catch up once we got home and he got the laptop set up in his office in our house.    I probably won't see him for a couple of days 😄

I will get back to work tomorrow.    

Next week he will take the laptop into the office for one of the IT people to check it out and see what they can do to make sure it works for our next b2b we have scheduled for March 20th. 

 

Since we originally planned to be on a 22 night cruise I had emptied out the fridge and cleaned it before we left but have plenty in freezer.    We will probably order take out tonight as I hate to cook after coming home from a cruise.  I will wait until the weekend to deal with the reality of having to go food shopping.

 

It was so cute when I opened up the front door I heard the cat's collars (little bells) running down the hall before I saw them.    Sparky peeked his head around the hallway corner and had this look like What is she doing here!   I wished I had my camera ready.   Then of course our luggage has to get sniffed up and down.
