Good Morning. Who's rocking the boat?

lol I think this must be what people refer to as getting your sea legs...in reverse. Feels like the room is rocking a little this morning.

It's great to be back but I missed you guys and spoke of you often. Just so you know, the LWs were well represented on the DS cruise. I may be the only one that posts here regularly, but there were 2 others there that claim LW status and I hope I was able to recruit a new one to come join OH and get on the LW board. I promised her no flaming and we don't eat our young.

Y'all have a great Sunday!

Glad you had a great time. I didn't realize it was a DS cruise, that must have made it even better.

I got home last night from my clinic. The weather cooperated and we had great days to be out playing with the pony. The instructor was very impressed with my little Chili and he had great fun playing in the creek and doing the marathon obstacles. Me too. It was also fun listening to all the folks who hadn't seen me in a while talk about how skinny I am. Not skinny yet but on my way.

Today I need to get caught up on all the stuff I left behind last week when I left, but it us suppose to be 72 so I will have to fit in a ride or drive with the big pony, Poppy. Sure do hope spring sticks around but I find it hard to believe we aren't going to get another blast of winter.

I've always wanted to go on a cruise but it isn't something I would ever be able to talk DH into. I can't wait to hear all of the stories and see some more pics.

Relax today because it's back to reality tomorrow.

A few folks came without their spouses and shared rooms and costs with other DSrs or family. Get his attention and tell him you'll go without him.

I'm glad you're back too! I've missed you in the morning. You're up at the crack of dawn, like me. (Old habits die hard, right?).

DH and I have been considering a cruise for years, but tend to opt of the all-inclusive hotels instead. Would you mind sharing your top 3/bottom 3 on cruising?

I loved the pic yesterday! You guys looked like you were having fun!

Hi Kay,
My DH and I cruise nearly every year, and have been to Alaska, the Caribbean, Europe, and even a Transatlantic.
My top & bottom are:
Top
1. Tons to do: exercise, sunning, swimming, gambling, lecture-attending, shore excursions, spa visiting, afternoon naps with the hubby, ...but no cooking or cleaning
2. Wonderful dining experiences: excellent food, lots of healthy choices, good service
3. Exploring a new exciting port nearly every day.

Bottom
1. Even though the value for the $$ is high, it's still spending $$$
2. The 26 foot waves in the transatlantic storm we encountered were not my cup of tea.
3. Having to come home and return to work

Yeah, I was up early on the cruise too. It was so nice and quiet. I enjoyed sitting out on the balcony in the early morning and evenings.

Top:
1) Get a reserved table and early time for evening dining.
2) Go on the shore excursions if you want but come back quickly and enjoy having the ship to yourself.
3) Order room service for protein coffees every morning. A tip is a small price to pay for having your protein covered every day.
4) Upgraded to get the balcony suite with a fridge and VIP treatment.

Bottom:
1) We had a couple with a crying toddler at the next table. Someone finally had to complain to get them out of the dining room or somewhere else.
2) Very crowded.
3) still thinking....

I would love to go on a cruise, dh won't so I guess we won't.

Glad you are back, we missed your good morning post each morning. Place wasn't the same without you. Glad we had a few LW's on the cruise even if you are the only one who posts here.

It's raining/thundering here so our day has been modified. We were gonna grill a steak out on the grill but it's going to have to be done on the indoor grill. Oh well. At least we can grill.

I've heard a lot about you since I came to this board. I'm glad you had fun. A cruise... it's a dream of mine. But it feels like we'll be forever "too poor" to do it.

You told the LW gal we don't eat our young? Darn it! I love to nibble on my son, he's just so tasty!
