Rare puppycanducruise Posted June 24, 2022 #3 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet and Daily Report. Happy Friday! Another cool morning, only 8C but supposed to get to the low 30s this afternoon. I don't think I've ever seen a faerie or fairy or faery. I like food trucks. I don't go to work and Bertie Woofster is with me. I love the quote. I think I'll pass on the meal suggestion. The drink sounds good. I'm sure I'll like the wine. I've never been to today's port, thanks in advance for the pictures. Prayers for everyone. I hope everyone can find something to laugh about. Stay safe. 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MISTER 67 Posted June 24, 2022 #4 Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) Good morning from beautiful Southwest Florida. Like the quote. Pass on the food and drink. Copper had a nice thread yesterday on the old Westerdam, she was a beautiful ship and our first HAL cruise was with her back in 1997, unfortunately she has reached her final destination at the breakers. Off to the Golf Course, earlier tee time today. Thanks for The Daily, stay well and have a great day. Edited June 24, 2022 by MISTER 67 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Boston Posted June 24, 2022 #7 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Happy Friday everyone. Thanks for the daily report. Hats off to fairy’s and food trucks. No dog to take to work with me. I like the quote for most days but sometimes it doesn’t apply. I think I’ll pass on the meal suggestion but the drink sounds nice. I have not been to today’s port. Prayers for everyone on our prayer list. Cheers to everyone celebrating happy events today!🎉 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Crazy For Cats Posted June 24, 2022 #8 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Good Morning Everyone, thanks for today’s fleet report. I’ll pass on today’s meal suggestion but I wouldn’t mind lunch or dinner from a good food truck. It was so nice to cancel two weeks worth of meetings yesterday! Everyone was warned that if I passed my test I’m out. Today’s project in between meetings is to finish the prep work for the pet sitter. I do like today’s quote, the cats seem to give me a reason to smile and laugh each day. @kazu safe journeys and I’m glad you’ll have friends around you this weekend. I hope everyone has a good day today. 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rafinmd Posted June 24, 2022 #9 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Thank you for the TGIF report, Rich. No dog and not really work to take one to anyway. Fairies are a myth with a great history. Interesting that there's a food truck day. Many Methodist related churches are using "Food Truck Party" as their theme for Vacation Bible School this year. Love the Chamfort quote. I know I've been to Alter Do Chao on the Prinsendam. Will pass on the fish head curry. My alternative is Chilled Lingonberry Soup and Prime Rib of Beef au Jus as served on MS Prinsendam May 25, 2015.

Rare richwmn Posted June 24, 2022 Author #10 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Over the last few hours I have received several messages that appear to be from Facebook with a code to reset my account password. First, I didn't request the reset. Second the emails came to two email accounts that I didn't use to set up Facebook. Everyone be careful about clicking on links in your emails and on social media. 21 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshhawk Posted June 24, 2022 #14 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Good Friday Morning! I'm off to my endocrinologist today to get yelled at for being the worlds worst patient. I always have the best intentions, but life and poor excuses keep me from being the best I can be. I am not going to work when I get home, I am actually really just going to take the day off. I have always thought that cats can see what humans cant. Something about the chemical make up of their brains. Stay cool. Dont stay out in the sun too long, wear your masks when you are with others, and have a great day! 30 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapau27 Posted June 24, 2022 #15 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Good afternoon. It is currently 75°F and sunny but rain is due this afternoon. I woke up this morning and for the first time in months my right knee was not painful after the steroid injection yesterday. Walking up and down stairs is okay with a slight pain on movement. Thank you for today's fleet reports and Daily Rich. A very good quote today. I will give today's food and drink a miss. Prayers for Sandi's @StLouisCruisers husband that he tests negative tomorrow to get out of quarantine and for everyone on the care list.

Sharon in AZ Posted June 24, 2022 #18 Share Posted June 24, 2022 A very early good morning! It’s 4:30 am here. Still can’t sleep more than 4 hours, so instead of tossing and turning I decided to read the Daily. @grapau27 Graham, so happy that you are better after your injection! Great news. I hope everyone has a great Friday! 27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cat shepard Posted June 24, 2022 #20 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Thank you for today’s Report & Daily Rich! Today is already a warm humid mess. Last evening a storm to the South and 10 minutes of rain made it a bit more bearable. Guess that didn’t last long. Thank you for keeping our lists, Roy. Morning Dailyites! Things are back to normal here, though the house feels empty. Bindi keeps going to “The Boys” room to see if she can find them. 😎 I will say that cocoa brown carpeting does not hide loose litter well. Heading off to the gym. Then I am on the hunt for some frozen mini pastry shells to use for hors d’oevres tomorrow evening. My Publix is out of them. I may have to rethink what I bring to my friend’s get together. Prayers for all who need our support. @kazu hoping your getaway brings you some comfort. Cheers to all who are celebrating! Stay well everyone! ************* Husch 2019 Estate Bottled Pinot Noir I would like to taste this wine. I gravitate towards fuller bodied PN. But I am always searching for another good wine. Several online distributors with prices starting at $21.99. 93 Wine Enthusiast Elegant and luxuriously smooth, this finely balanced wine pairs ripe and round black-cherry and spice flavors with tangy underlying acidity for great balance. Mild tannins add to the sense of palate-cleansing freshness and help create a lingering finish. 28 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfish Posted June 24, 2022 #23 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Good morning, everyone. It is a cold start to the day today - 55F but sunny and bright. It will end up being a very nice day. Nothing on tap today other than my morning laps and the pool later this morning. Today's meal is interesting, but I doubt I'll be running out to buy fish heads to make it. I think I'm going with Roy's alternative meal today. I'm sure the Fish Head Curry is flavorful, but I lose my appetite thinking of fish eyes staring at me. Or, what if they fall out of the fish head and into the curry? Would I be able to find them to fish them out? Well, here is the first recipe for those who are brave enough to try it. https://www.nyonyacooking.com/recipes/fish-head-curry~HyPIdPjvf5-Q Ok, this next one says go ahead and substitute fish fillets for the head. Now, that I may try. https://www.foodelicacy.com/fish-head-curry/ And we have one more to choose from. I think I'd like the sauce on a nice fillet. https://www.thespruceeats.com/fish-head-curry-3030407 Thanks, Rich, for keeping the meal of the day interesting! Prayers for all who need them, especially Ukraine, victims of gun violence, and our Daily family members struggling with challenges. May this weekend be the cathartic @kazu Jacqui needs to continue healing. Special prayers for Tana, Buddy, Curt, and @Heartgrove Jack's DB. Cheers to those who are celebrating. Wishing a Bon Voyage to all those embarking on a BHB. I hope everyone has a great day. 24 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smitty34877 Posted June 24, 2022 #25 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Good morning from a humid and warm environment today.I encountered a lot of dogs and their owners early today as it gets just too hard to walk in the "soup" later. We try to have a good laugh around here most days and usually succeed. I had a great Aunt who told us many stories involving fairies and kept us entertained as children.I think my dog Fred goes to work with me every day and I appreciate his help. The Graduation took place outside and was very nice.DH stayed with Tana and they watched on the computer.DD and I shed a few tears and remembered the day our young man was born.I can always count on her to be sentimental with me. I think there would be a revolt here if fish heads appeared on the table.We will have to come up with something later. I got this picture last night of Camilla and her Grandpa. . 44 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
