Quartzsite Cruiser Posted July 17 #77 Share Posted July 17 50 minutes ago, kochleffel said: Kinda sorta It gets worse! Some segments of the Jewish world (not mine) believe that it's unhealthful to combine fish and meat. This is why a fancy Jewish menu is fish-soup-meat instead of the European sequence of soup-fish-meat. In a household that follows this practice, the fish dishes and utensils would be completely removed from the table before the soup was served; the soup is a buffer between the fish and the meat. Paul, I understand some of the historical reasons behind the separate dishes and not mixing certain foods in addition to the prohibitions against eating certain foods, but the fish and meat separation is a new one to me. 25 minutes ago, HAL4NOW said: @Cruising-along Carolyn, @Quartzsite Cruiser Lenda, @rafinmd Roy, Thanks to all three of you for thinking of me a few days ago. My DW and I are doing well, just haven't been on Cruise Critic much for a few months. No cruises scheduled for now, but we did get to stay at our condominium in Westport for a few weeks. The coast is beautiful and being there was nice, but it is also nice to be back in the mountains. We really do feel blessed to live and spend time in places that many people can only dream of visiting. Tony, thanks for checking in and letting us know you are both doing well. We do tend to worry about our absent Dailyites. 23 minutes ago, 1ANGELCAT said: 💔Heartbreaking News, I just heard on Philadelphia tv station that an 8 week old baby was left in a closed car in Lakewood NJ for 4 hrs on Monday. She died on scene. The father has been taken into custody . Sweet angel RIP 💔🙏 That is just horrible news. I don't understand how a parent cannot know or remember their child is in the car even if the child is asleep. That sweet angel got their wings way to soon.

It has been a long time since we've heard from her. @HAL Sailer I hope all is well with you. Drop in and let us know how you are doing. Debbie, I've also been concerned about Melisa @HAL Sailer and her DH, and Linda @lindaler. I hope they have both been busy and are otherwise all right.

JazzyV Posted July 17 #80 Share Posted July 17 (edited) Good evening. We just got a nice thunderstorm and about a half inch of rain. Hopefully we'll get a bit more later. The temperature has dropped down to 74F after the storm and cold front. My stomach is feeling better. The worst time seems to be when I wake up and in the early morning. Once I eat something it starts to improve. That can be indicative of an ulcer, but I don't think I have one. @bennybear Great photos from the Guggenheim in Bilbao and the Pinxtos. @Nickelpenny It sounds like you're enjoying your project. @1ANGELCAT I'm sorry to hear of DH's accident, but happily no one was injured. So sad about that precious child's death, which was totally preventable. @superoma I'm glad you're feeling better, but concerned that your DH is struggling. @cunnorl I hope the weather doesn't play too much havoc with your flight. Safe travels. @HAL4NOW Thanks for checking in. We worry, you know. Edited July 17 by JazzyV 19 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things have changed some but I bought the insurance in case I have to fly home. Hoping that doesn't happen. I have missed everyone. I just almost never get my computer turned on so miss catching up with everyone. 11 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Boston Posted July 17 #85 Share Posted July 17 10 hours ago, Crazy For Cats said: Good Morning Everyone, thanks for today’s daily fleet report. It’s going to be another hot day. The weather forecast says we will get some relief tomorrow, time will tell. Thank you all for the well wishes. Today marks the first big date this year. In September we will mark 30 years while on the Zuiderdam. I’m taking the afternoon off from work and we will head out at lunchtime for a bite to eat. Then champagne later tonight. I got DH Lego’s Tuxedo cat. I hope everyone has a good day today. Happy Anniversary Jake & Juan! 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshhawk Posted July 18 #86 Share Posted July 18 (edited) @1ANGELCATAbout 10 years ago (gosh that long) that a man left his baby son in the summer Atlanta car, while he went to work. He went out at lunch to make sure that his guitar was ok, but never thought of his child? By noon the child was dead. And he didnt notice? He was sent to jail, but got out this past year? or earlier. When they were investigating the lets be real, murder, they found all sorts of sights on his personal computer about how long a baby would last in the hot car, and some porn with young girls....and off he went to jail, his wife left him (wise choice) and I saw in the news 2 weeks ago that he was arrested again, this time for sex with a teenager. They should have thrown away the key when they put him in the first time, and to think that he got out after 8 years because of a technicality is terrible. It was, premeditated murder, he even offered to take the kid to the day care that day, something he rarely did. @kazuI hope that all is well tomorrow, and that you will be getting better each day. I have been having a rough time juggling my hours. DH just doesnt seem to be improving post "test" surgery. He has edema in both arms, and in one leg, and his artery is bulging in the leg they ran the tubes down. He does ask for food, and if it is there, he may take a bite or two, and then forget that he is eating, and will light a cigarette, or start looking at his phone, and the food sits there. Uneaten. I did tell him today that he cannot complain about his rapid weight loss, when he wont eat. The show I mentioned my new addiction to on Netflix is Bodkin ( I left the k out this morning) but while originally he found fascinating, it is a thinking and high action series, and he got lost in the episodes tonight. When I talk to him, he pays no attention, and has very little interest in what is going on around him. I felt today I needed to be with him more, so I left work early. With the explanation to my boss, that since his surgery, I have not been to the store for cat food, and I would hate to have him see in the news that a little old lady in Georgia was eaten by her pets because there was no food for them in the house. I need patience. I need to remember that it wont get better each day, but worse, and I cant keep losing my patience with him. I can nag him all the time, his docs gave me the thumbs up on that, but to see someone falling apart more each day, and not doing everything they have suggested for him is very disheartening. So, if you can spare a prayer, please pray that I learn to be more patient. And @lindalerplease have a great cruise, and dont be gone so long from here. I love reading about your adventures in Mobile, and your new home. The kayaking on the water, and the boat parades. And thank you everyone who posted pictures of the Guggenheim and Bilboa. They were all wonderful. Edited July 18 by marshhawk 10 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
