Hello sunshines
. Really a lovely trip, believe I may do some sort of pictorial TR, maybe file it in under Aulani. Will post link here if i get up a head of steam. Busy week as always coming back from travel. Unexpectedly, had one of my DS admitted to hospital, migrane of all things but really laid him low. Seems fine now, thankfully with a med adjustment. I don’t suffer from them but have 2 sons that do, along with my departed MiL, seem awful to with which to deal.
Love the pictures!!!! You both look so happy and relaxed and I love both your outfits.......love the dress!!
The view is beautiful........I think I need to think about Hawaii........although we’d need to take Kyle for all those observatories......lol......no romantic trip for two for us then!
Look forward to more pictures........
Thank you, believer it or not, that’s a Ross Dress for Less special @ $10 less 10% senior discount lol. DH said it probably his favorite dress on me of all things.

Charade great news you snagged a ressie for Galaxies Edge
Monykalyn love the cuddle chicken pictures.
Thanks again for the pics you sent me what seems a long time ago of Pearl Harbor, helped a lot in organizing our visit there, which I really enjoyed.
Hello homies!
I’m home and trying to catch up on the boards
Great trip we had and now back to everyday life this week
Schumi, hope you and Tom have safe travels and get all the sunshine and no rainy days in Orlando
Your trips are always awesome and you top each one of them with new things you share with us
Also sending hugs to all that are traveling on vacation soon
Thinking of all the homies here and hope all are doing fine
Missed you all while I have been away
Hope you were able to enjoy the trip.
Happy Tuesday afternoon Sans family
Forgot to mention to everyone heading to Orlando and anywhere near the ocean. The lovebugs are out this year. They are starting to get pretty bad. We noticed them by the pool while at The Resort.
Every few years they are very annoying. They hit the cars while your driving and it you don’t keep the bug debris washed off the car they can damage the paint.
Seriously, first time I saw the love bugs oh-so-long ago the first thought that came to minds was OMG it’s a plague of biblical proportions lol. Never heard of them beforehand. We do get cicadas every now & again but on schedule and they disappear quickly.
Hi everybody
Patty...your dinner sounds good to me...I lost my appetite when I was coming home from work tonight and my battery light came on...stopped by my ex's house and it went dead. We got it cranked but he thinks it's probably the alternator. Guess I'll have to visit my mechanic tomorrow morning before work. Sometimes it feels like I can't catch a break
Sorry to be a downer....
Hope all who are traveling this week are having a great time and continuing prayers for real's mum.
Good night to all...I think I'll have a glass of wine.
Oh no, your car repair mojo has been awful lately. Hope it all is settled now. Believe I have a slow leak in my breakline on car. Seems to run dry within 2 weeks (time it was sitting in front of house while gone). Prior to would just give it what seemed to be an increasingly more often glug of break fluid when the light came on the dash. No idea what that costs or how long it takes, need to put it on the short list I supposed.
I did have a target heart rate to hit- and they kept increasing the speed and incline- I had a death grip on the railing afraid I was going to fall off as the incline increased!
Thank you all for the good thoughts and wishes - much appreciated!
That *%# target heart rate. Though i was going to pass out after nearly 20 minutes and how they kept raising the treadmill elevation my last test. I called uncle and said I was quitting lol. They did wind up having to shoot me with dye in the end regardless. Why they didn’t just do it earlier is beyond me.
I almost did the one unforgivable sin
Did not send MIL a card for Mothers’ Day
So did online FTD flower order this evening and it will be delivered Saturday morning
Costly mistake as I had a $40 extra fee for weekend delivery
Sat/Sun charged the same
Hope all the homies have a great weekend !
Haha I once again got read riot act I wasn’t home for mother’s day. When i booked cruise, assumed we’d catch a red eye to PIT home on Saturday. Ha, was lucky to get home late Sunday evening with series of connecting fights. Didn’t help SWA cancelled our leg out of SAN at 1 am Sunday. So glad the mr checked his phone when he work up or wouldn’t have gotten home until Monday. Fall out from the Max plane issue is understandable but an effective 2 hour notice of cancelled connecting flight is not acceptable IMO.
Went out to late lunch with Jr today, good home-made meat/spinach ravioli yum for me. Then the pokemon movie which we enjoyed being fans since he was little kid. Saw avengers very early in am day before we left on trip to avoid spoilers. It really seemed to drag first 45 min and still could’ve used some judicious editing but nice resolution to that series.
Mr on 4-12 this week. It’s killing me waiting to see last week’s GoT, hard to avoid spoilers on the tube lalalala
. Hope to work it in with the mister tomorrow eve.
Good afternoon everyone, I’m ba-ack lol! Wonderful trip, daughter had a blast. Loved RPH. Finally got to try Mythos, something that’s been on my radar but never gotten around to. We both had the Fork and Spoon Grilled Cheese with pork belly in tomato soup. Really liked it.
I’m so glad I bought the photo package when they offered the Mardi Gras 1 yr AP special. We got a lot of fun photos.
Still tired from time change. We landed @12:30am Friday. Had a bit of a rough flight, left Thursday evening. On the MCO to SeaTac segment I dozed off, woke up dripping in sweat, dizzy, nauseous, vision blacked out and I was incoherent for awhile. Sure glad my daughter was with me. She buzzed flight attendant who gave me cold compress and gingerale. After 15min or so I started coming around.
Yesterday morning I phoned my doctor and got in. He said it sounded like my blood pressure dropped, made worse being strapped into an airplane seat unable to lay down. He sent me for blood work just to make sure. Feeling better except for the usual jet lag now.
My husbands cousin and partner are in town from Nova Scotia, staying at brother-in-law’s. We went out for Chinese food yesterday, today we’re hosting a bbq. Dry rub ribs, roasted nugget potatoes, and 2 salads.
Wow, that is scary to hear. All good now?
If you are not a cat person, you won’t understand this post
I could have made a deposit on a new car compared to what we have laid out on Luna
She had a basic two top teeth canine extraction Thursday
Simple surgery as no jaw bone involved
Those teeth had chipped and nerves were exposed so she only ate canned food last full year
She never complained about pain when she ate but would chew food with her head tilted to the side
Figured as long as she regularly ate, no problem
At the check up at the vet weeks ago, we were told she needed them extracted before more of a medical issue came up
So had it done before the weekend
She has not done well two days after surgery
She stopped eating yesterday morning
Took her in for follow up with vet this morning
Called vet Monday and he said wait another day (today) before he needed to see her
Infection and it has spread to the bone
Now on meds twice daily
One of vets staff will come to our house to give her the meds for the next 14 days
Vet will do reconstruction surgery after infection is gone
He said he has never encountered this situation and feels like he failed her and us
He is a fantastic vet surgeon and know this was a fluke that could have happened to anyone
We are so appreciative he will have staff come to our house so she can stay at home
And when her next surgery happens, he will keep her housed at his vet office for after care
We hit the jackpot when we moved and had to secure a new vet
Now I am working on finding a new dentist for me
Too bad the vet does not do people....
Haha a good dentist is hard to find but that’s pushing it. You’ve had poor luck with your kitties teeth. Good thing they have responsible parents to fund their treatment.
Good morning to the homies
Friday means end of the line for work
Anyone have plans for the weekend?
Those with kids will be busy I assume
as no school or work days then
So you think Monyk could have her chicks autograph the pic she shared with us
I don’t want to call one of the chickadees by the wrong name
I was known to call out wrong name when the 4 boys were at home and it always ticked them off
Lol
Hope all have good weather for today and the weekend
Finish opening our pool tomorrow. Mr. Told he’s working an OT day, I will be following orders. It’s tricky to get the chemicals right the first time each season. Thank goodness the water is clear but freezing, no way would I get in there to vacuum it.
Flag football game for GD Sunday. The pool issues give me a pass on her am softball game in far-flung locality tomorrow, phew.
Test results are in. The biopsy I had last week was negative which is a huge relief. The ultrasound today showed a couple of polyps that need to be removed. That procedure will be scheduled sometime in July.
Tomorrow I go to the dentist. I don’t expect any problems there.
Interesting story from work today. We have a new therapist who has been with us for a few months. A few weeks ago I received an email from a woman who was looking for that therapist. I figured she was a former client or a student she used to see when she worked for the university. I forwarded the email to the therapist and thought nothing more of it. Today the therapist told me that the woman is her daughter who she gave up for adoption years ago. They are now making plans to meet for the first time. I told her about how dh believes that he has found his half siblings and that we will be meeting his niece in California.
Hope everyone is having a nice night. I’m going to try to get some sleep.
Good luck with the procedure. That is an increasingly more common sort of situation re the kinship. I do wonder how many folks do the geneology tests though and get unexpected news from their past.
