We had a huge gust yesterday morning. We have a large birdcage out on the deck. It was the one our birds used(obviously). Now that they are gone we brought it out to clean it. The thing ways a good 30-40 pounds. It got blown over onto the picnic table we have on the deck!:eek: I didn't get it either. It is a cage and the wind should have gone right through it. o_OWe also have a large plastic trunk on the side of the house where we store stuff. It is heavy also and it got blown over and the stuff inside fell out.:rolleyes:

Good grief!
Blowing over a 30+ lb. bird cage...?!
Now, that's a gust...!!! :confused:

Good morning to everyone! We came back late yesterday. My sister was in a really great mood, and we had so much fun. We had an afternoon margarita each day. The bartender gave us seconds free, he was awsome and really funny. The ship has changed a few things, that I didn't like Kate Spade went in where the cupcake place was. I missed the little cupcakes. The shows were top notch as usual. Now, the disappointing....the cabins are really beat up, and the carpeting in the halls is dingy... like Cesar said, they are trying to sell stuff pretty much none stop. The cruise director was very boring. Nothing like the first cruise....Mr. Scary was on top of his game and all over the boat, and was so funny...he made that cruise. We will do more research before we take another cruise, definitely not on the Oasis, it needs to go back to the port and have some things fixed. Mainly the cabin bathrooms, the water in there smelled...awful....same in sister's cabin. No cold water to brush your teeth, I went to bottled water to brush. The cabin stewards were wonderful, but way overworked, the same in the dining room, great servers. They were very nice and funny too. I would love to see that the head waiter would not get after the servers, right in public. This server wasn't ours...but that ruined that meal for us. Do that kind of stuff after the service is over. Not in public. That should not be for public display. Just my opinion. There are better places to review someone's performance. Hubby, we all call him Mr. Lucky...won 500.00$ in the casino, and he won a 6 day cruise in the casino too. He has this special touch I guess, as I have mentioned before...he won in Las Vegas, 13,000$ playing Keno...he got 9 out of 9 numbers, his Mom was very lucky too. That's all for now. Pictures will be coming later today....hubby has to download them . It will take me time...but I hope to do ketchup. Later...it's time to do as @Figment423 says start on the mountain of laundry. I hope everyone is doing well...xoxo missed you.

Despite some disappointments, sooo very glad to hear y'all had a great time...!!! :)

Happy Halloween! We had our trick this morning, hubs missed a step going into the basement and took a tumble down the stairs. He can barely walk. So we are at the hospital and he is waiting for an x-ray. Hope nothing is broken.

And it sounds like all you east coasters had your trick yesterday with those storms! Stay safe everyone!

Sounds like we all need a treat now!

Sympathy like.
Reading ahead...

I went to my 2nd followup visit after my cataract surgery, and the surgeon says that my eye is looking really good. I passed along my primary doctor's request about delaying my 2nd cataract surgery, and he then told me to return for my next visit/appointment in 4 week's time.

That's great! (I mean about what your cataract surgeon said, I don't know if you are happy about what you said at the end) :)

On a completely random note, when do you start to wear Uggs, Winter Boots, etc. Since it's very cold outside I want to wear them but it is so early in November!!!

So DH took DS to school this morning for his first day in the new school. (I had a thing at DD's school) So he apped me that they got there and a girl DS knows from Chess came up and just took him under her wing, telling him where he could put his bag, and inviting him to come play tag with her and some other kids. Already a great start. I picked him up and asked him how his day was and he smiled so big and said "GREAT!" and I almost cried because I don't think he has EVER had a "great" day at school before. He made 4 friends...one of whom was assigned as his buddy to help him get used to the rules and the agenda, etc. So far, so good.
And my FIL got to go home today. YAY!!

THAT. IS. AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! :joyfull: :)

So... how was everyone's day?

I got a text from a random number today saying "See ya tomorrow"

I assumed it was the wrong number so I said sorry wrong number.

Later today I find out that "random number" was one of my best friends who just got a new IPhone 8.

Welcome to the thread! :)

My day was good, thanks for asking.
How was yours?

Funny about the "random" text...! :)

We just put out a bowl, it worked well. We still had a bunch of candy left which I will take to school.




Thanks! Mine was the one with pointy teeth.



When we stopped at church yesterday for hubs to get some stuff to work on the quilting ladies were there and they jokingly asked what I had done to him.

@StarWarsGirl hubs might not have the best story about falling but someday we can laugh about how when I got to him he was only concerned about me getting his jeans and switching the laundry. Which is why went down there in the first place.

And laundry one of the jobs hubs does because I hate it will now sadly go to me for 6-8 weeks. @figmentfan423 i guess I'm
Part of the Mt. Laundry club now.

I'll say a prayer that they give him a walking cast or a boot!

Is that like...a nacho bar? Can you just help yourself? Or does it come with certain things? I'm going to have to look up where they are....might be something for us on a future US trip!

I pulled that one off FB. I'm guessing it is a serving station for wait staff???? We ate on the porch. I only had one of that and our food as we were not indoors so I pulled the few photo's off their FB Page for Donaldtoo

I know they have Chuy's in Orlando, multiple. A possibility. I recommend it.

Just saw your post after I posted...
It is indeed a free "help yourself" nacho bar.
We have utilized it many times, especially when waiting for a table.
I usually only get a smidgen, others not so much...main reason we always take home so many leftovers from Chuy's...! :hungry: ;) :)

OK gang...!
Y'all be cool..!!!
Gone again...!!!!! ;) :)

Well that is nice if patrons are correct in food handling anyhow.

On the porch the server brought us free chips and various salsa's and cheese to our table. They came with a metal shovel to refill the chips at the table.
