I hope DD and family have a good day honoring her mother. It can be really helpful to hear other people's memories of our family members. Take care of your Dad, DD. When everyone is gone he will need a support system (someone to talk to at minimum).

We got relatively tired at Universal yesterday. We spent 7.5 hours there, most of which were in Harry Potter. I learned to discriminate between rides after I went on Hagrid's motorbike ride and found out it is a real roller coaster. I spent the entire ride with my eyes closed and was a bit nauseous afterwards. We decided we were done at a little after 3 and decided to head home vs eating dinner there. We were able to pick Justice up just before the place closed vs this morning which I am sure he was pleased with. We had a nice meal out at a local place DS and I had been to a couple of times but DH had not. He really liked it.

The sinus infection which started sometime before Christmas has kicked into high gear again. Just in time for our trip. I need to talk to the doctor - might be bacterial this time.

This morning I have water aerobics, then bocce this afternoon. In between there is laundry, errands, and packing. We leave at 8:15 tomorrow morning. Tomorrow we get on the ship around noon, have lunch and dinner on it as well as a christening ceremony (first real trip). The ship leaves Miami at around 9 pm. Will need to bring layers for the christening as it is supposed to be in the low 60's at that point. Mid-80's at our destinations in the Caribbean and in Puerto Rico for the rest of the trip.

Have a worthy Wednesday!

Sounds like you are ready. Lucky you to have such a good support system right now. It will be very quiet and empty for your Dad when everyone departs. I hope he finds some things to do.

I'm sorry, Paula, that sounds miserable and expensive!

Greetings all

Another sunny day. The drive to Scrabble was beautiful as the bay was sparkling ad calm. But Scrabble was not so pretty - I lost all my games though they were close. These people are just getting too good for me! So I continue to whine.

DD you are on the home stretch. Good on BFF for listening to your Dad. It is what he needs. And nice that there are pasties. Can;t say I have ever had a real one. Hoping all goes well so you can soon catch your breath.

So Liz, is there a quidditch ride? What a great way to get tired out! Enjoy.

Saw Ann's home remodel pictures today. Fabulous and so fitting. What a place!!

Agreed Paula. Don't go to water aerobics if it is cold. That is why I quit my pool walking. The treadmill is warmer. Also drier. And feels safer.

Peps have you stepped out of the house yet? Hope the pain continues to decline.

So I stopped in at the studio and did some glazing. Also have tax stuff to run to and from the accountant for the studio. W-2 stuff for staff. Reminds me that I need to think about that stuff soon. And yeah CC what is this post office crap about posting mail at such time as they feel like it. Not cool.

I got an Asian sub sandwich for lundh. Quite good but huge. Two meals. Makes me want to skip dinner entirely.

120.2, up a pound!

Skipped out on water aerobics due to still feeling punky and it was pretty chilly too. I don?t foresee going for the next week or so unless we get a surprise warmup. I took a nap instead and still feel like I could go to bed for the night right now.

Dental appointment today and the news isn?t good. At a minimum I will have to have a root canal, might need 2, and the 3rd and most likely possibility is a root canal and an extraction with implant. I?m looking at thousands of dollars! Wish I had signed up for the premium dental plan during open enrollment but wasn?t having any problems then!

After the dentist we did a Costco run. The Costco in Fort Myers is always crazy busy (think pre Christmas crowds). $430 later, we are well stocked for our proteins! I cancelled our Hello Fresh subscription so will be needing to do more planning and ingredient shopping!

Hope you have having fun at Universal Liz! Great pic if Mike you posted!
