Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily @richwmn. I like football (Go Steelers!). I don't do Chinese takeout, but eat at Chinese restaurants with BFF sometimes. No red hair here. Good quote. I like the meal and wine. Pass on the drink. I have been to Kona. it's going to be a nice day. Unfortunately too early to get leaves to the curb, and the next 2 days are supposed to be windy. Well, another bad night. I woke up after about 2.5 hours of sleep, with pain. I sat up in bed to try to ease it. Still awake, about 3:30AM the power went out. I looked on an emergency services app I have and saw that a nearby transformer had blown. So I had to get up and put my CPAP on the backup battery. Power was restored about 5AM, so I didn't have to go downstairs to put the fridge on battery backup; the freezer and alarm system stay on backup all the time. Later, standing up to brush my teeth started the intense leg numbness and pain, causing me to hobble around. It's settled down a bit now. I'm going to attempt to go to the big box store, and will take a cane for some support, although the shopping cart will help hold me up. I really dislike not being able to do much. @Lady Hudson Bon Voyage! @grapau27 Thanks for the info on Guy Fawkes. @StLouisCruisers Congrats to Ren and his team for the win. Lovely Kona photos. @smitty34877 I was thinking about you all day yesterday. I'm sure all the kind remembrances by those who knew Lou was very touching and of some comfort. Hugs. @GTVCRUISER Thanks for the photos. @rafinmd Your meal is something I'd enjoy. @kazu Good job on getting all of the clothes together for donation. That is very kind of your guy to help out with getting rid of some things. I'm in the same situation with trying to get rid of heavier things, although luckily my haircut guy is interested in a lot of my woodworking tools. @aliaschief It sounds like a wonderful cruise. @dfish Aww, it sounds like River loves spending time with you and Sue. @Quartzsite Cruiser Great photos as usual. Are you trading in your old motorhome? Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for those Celebrating.

Nice early toots!

There are boxes to the right side of the screen. On the second box at the bottom, you'll see something like 2m. Click on that to refresh the map.

Me either!

There she is.

Checking in.

Good afternoon. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. I'd celebrate candy day with chocolate. Community service is important. We should all use common sense daily, but many don't. I like the quote. I like a good chicken pot pie, but have never made one. Pass on the drink and yes to the wine. I haven't been to Horta. 3 good days in history. It's partly sunny and going into the low 60's today. I took a muscle relaxant before going to bed. I had thought I slept better. Although I awakened multiple times due to pain, I didn't think I was awake as long. But my watch shows about 4 hours of sleep total; better than 2.5, but not great. And I had strange dreams, that I can't remember now. I'm back to a lot of pain and tingling when I stand. I'm trying to parcel and vacuum seal some meats I bought, and I have to sit down every 5 minutes or so. @smitty34877 Thinking of you and the family as you remember and celebrate your dear Lou. @seagarsmoker Enjoy St. Kitts. Sorry to hear of a passenger drowning in St. Lucia. @StLouisCruisers Good luck to Ren today. Thanks for the Horta photos. @kazu Oh no on Ivan getting out. I'm glad he knows where "home" is! @aliaschief A spa visit sounds nice; although I don't like when they try to sell you all kinds of products. Thanks for the info on the motion sickness device. I don't usually have that issue. Wow on that Galley buffet! @kochleffel Sorry about the itinerary changes, and the lackluster gala dinner. @Quartzsite Cruiser Nice photos. Good job on getting those heavy batteries in place. @dfish I'm sure River felt very special. Thanks for the recipes. @Nickelpenny Love the meme. @travelnap Oh the picture that paints in my head! 😁 Prayers for the Care List and Cheers to all those Celebrating.

Good evening. Thank you all for your concern and prayers. It means more than you know. After taking the muscle relaxant, and eating a bite, I managed to find a tolerable position in the recliner and napped on and off for about 3 hours. I sure needed that! The working diagnosis is a bulging disc plus nerve impingement from arthritis in the "facet", both seen on a 2021 MRI. So I have to have the MRI and some x-rays repeated, to see if it's worse. That's not until the beginning of December and I see the Neurosurgeon December 19. I suspect surgery will be the recommendation. @Seasick Sailor Your Christmas gifts sounds delicious. My DM was from GA and made something similar, mainly with collards and mustard greens. @Heartgrove I'm glad the phones are getting straightened out. I back up my phone to my PC, using iTunes rather than the cloud. I can just transfer all the info to a new phone. Although these days you can just put the phones next to each other and they do their magic and transfer stuff. @StLouisCruisers I'm glad you asked about the Kong, as I had no clue either. @Cruzin Terri I'm glad DH got looked at by Orthopedics UC and that there was no fracture. Also that they are treating him and will see him back to follow-up. Sounds like a good place you went to. @Vict0riann I'm sorry to hear about so many changes to your cruise itinerary. @cruising sister It's important DB's doctors identify the organism, so they can get him on the right IV antibiotics. Such good news about Murphy! She's been through so much; I hope she continues to progress. @dfish I don't have pain pills per se, just the muscle relaxant and the Gabapentin which may help nerve pain in the long run. I had tried a higher dose years ago, and had trouble with staggering. But I'd rather do that, if I can decrease the pain. @Quartzsite Cruiser I hope you get the motorhome's new batteries in without too much trouble. Time for dinner!

Good afternoon. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. I'll salute Dominican independence. Does paying my copay at the doctor's office count? I have occasionally had a stout beer. Nice quote. Pass on the meal (fish), maybe on the drink and yes to the wine. I've never been to Liverpool. 2 good days in history. It's 56 and sunny now, the start of a few nice days. I don't know what to do with myself. I had the same almost 3 hours of sleep. After getting up I had the usual leg/back pain, but it didn't subside or wax and wane like it typically does. Driving hurts a lot, keeping my leg on the accelerator. I had my appointment with the Neurosurgery PA. I had to park a ways away, and it was agony walking to the office and just sitting there. So now I'm scheduled to get an MRI and lumbar spine x-rays. I'm increasing the Gabapentin again and ordered a muscle relaxant. I'll see the surgeon in mid-December. I'm to continue PT and working on losing some weight. I stopped in at PT to schedule and they felt sorry for me and put hot packs on my back and leg. I had planned to make a couple of other stops on the way home, but was just in too much pain. I finally got some relief sitting at my desk now. @seagarsmoker Cool to be visiting Dominica on their independence day! Thanks for the photos. @Heartgrove I hope you got your phones straightened out today. @StLouisCruisers Great photos from Liverpool. @grapau27 Thanks for the photos, and history of stout beer. @superoma I'm glad the surgery went well. @kazu Enjoy being at home; I await that this weekend. @aliaschief It sounds like you've had a lovely time on this cruise. Very nice sail away photos. @kochleffel I admire you trying to continue your course work while cruising. Nice photos. Sorry to hear of the missing ports. @dfish Early Happy Birthday to River! @ottahand7 Ouch! I hope you can get the tooth situation taken care of quickly. @Quartzsite Cruiser Lovely photos of Liverpool. @Cruising-along Thanks for sharing your photos. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for those Celebrating.

Thanks for letting me know. Are you doing the maiden voyage of the Celebrity Ascent? @aliaschief Nice photos! @Quartzsite Cruiser I'm not sure about insurance requirements, but I also suspect most patients want to try something non-surgical first, in hopes it works.

@57redbird I'm sorry to hear your improvement was so short-lived. @Cruzin Terri I understand the position you're in. Hugs. @seagarsmoker I'm glad you had a good day in St. Lucia. @Quartzsite Cruiser Thanks for the info. I didn't realize the good responses to the epidural shots were so low. You get the impression that it can be a miracle treatment. But I'm sure they have to try non-surgical things first.

Good afternoon. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily @richwmn. I will remember my DM on this All Souls Day. BFF occasionally will make me dinner, but not today. I'll delay planning my epitaph, although I do want to make arrangements in advance, one of these days. Good quote. I'll pass on the meal. I like the drink, which can put you on your rear quickly if slurped too quickly. Yes to the wine also. I have not been to Kochi City. An important day for Indonesia. We almost broke the record for low temp (25F) on this date. It was 26 this AM and is going up to 46F. At least it's sunny. And 60's for the weekend. Same old issues with sleep; I got about 3.5 hours. At least I managed a 1 hour nap yesterday afternoon, in the recliner. I saw the PMR (rehab) doctor today, as a follow-up. I'm going to increase my Gabapentin by 1 capsule a day to try to help the nerve pain. Also she sang the praises of the Neurosurgeon, whose PA I'll see tomorrow. And she filled out paperwork for a handicapped placard for my car, but I read it takes 6-8 weeks to get it. @grapau27 Thinking of you and Pauline on this 12th memory of your dear mam. @StLouisCruisers Thanks for posting the drink recipe today. Sorry you didn't sleep well either. @kazu Enjoy your lunch with your BFF. Ivan is a lucky dog to have ended up with someone as caring as you. @Heartgrove It doesn't sound right that it would take that long to transfer data from the old phones to the new. And transferring stuff to the wrong phones! Oy! @aliaschief That meal looks delicious. @cat shepard I hope your electrical work passes with flying colors. @Seasick Sailor I'm sorry to hear of your sleepless night. Enjoy girls' game night. @Vict0riann Sorry you missed Cartegena. I stopped there once, and unfortunately my knee was so bad I couldn't do any walking. I just got off the ship to say I'd been there, and got back on. @smitty34877 I'm so glad you have heat. The thermocouple on my boiler tends to go bad every few years. Your soup sounds good. It's great that DD and DS have done the organizing for Lou's remembrance; hugs to you all. @Nickelpenny I do hope you get some answers before your cruise. @ger_77 I'm glad DH got a good report from the Cardiologist, and the ok to cruise. @bennybear Great Kochi photos. @Sharon in AZ Enjoy your time with the ladies group, and then Craig. @Cruzin Terri Sorry to hear about Jim's knee. It would be good to at least get an x-ray, if he'd go. That way maybe no surprises on your cruise. I'm glad you're sleeping better. @cruising sister Thanks for sharing the good news about Murphy! I'm so glad to hear it. And also that DB is feeling better. And best to you for your surgery. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for those Celebrating.

Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. Rabbit, Rabbit, White Rabbit! I'll salute authors, no pet to cook for, and family literacy is important. It's also Dias de los Muertos. I like the quote. I've never made a spatchcock chicken. Pass on the drink and yes to the wine. I have been to Juneau on the Ryndam in 2009. The diphtheria vaccine was an important breakthrough. There were bands of snow showers here earlier, with some areas getting 4" and others (like mine) only getting a few flurries. It's 32F with a high of 41. I'll be staying inside; it's the first weekday without an appointment for a while. I took a Benadryl last night and crashed around 10PM due to being so tired. While it helped me fall asleep, I still only got about 3-1/2 hours total, as I couldn't lay down due to pain. I came downstairs early and tried to nap in the recliner, but the leg pain was just too much. I have a check-in call to pain management, but the next big step is seeing the Neurosurgery PA on Friday. Tomorrow is PMR doctor. I have some stuff I need to do around the house, so I'll make an attempt. @kochleffel @Vict0riann @ocean sounds Bon Voyage! @seagarsmoker Enjoy your day! @aliaschief It sounds like a fun Halloween onboard. @StLouisCruisers Great photos. @Nickelpenny I'm glad you're getting the MRI. @kplady @GTVCRUISER Nice photos. @ottahand7 I was in Glacier gardens; not sure if that's the same place. @Quartzsite Cruiser Excellent photos. Prayers for the Care List and Cheers to those Celebrating. A few photos. Arriving to the dock area in Juneau. They were celebrating 50 years of statehood (2009). Being greeted by a moose on debarkation. Mendenhall glacier. We were supposed to do a helicopter ride and land on a glacier, but the weather was not good and it was too windy. So we went whale watching instead.

Good evening. Before going for my haircut I was so sleepy, despite coffee, that I had to munch on a few chocolate covered espresso beans. The trip to the salon (only around the corner) was somewhat eventful. I walked there slowly, aided by a cane. When I got into the chair for the shampoo, with my legs elevated and body reclining back, the right leg started to hurt really bad. It continued while I was in the chair, and it was all I could do not to moan out loud. I went out their back door, which is right across the alley from my garage. By the time I did that little walking, it was easing a lot. Then BFF came by to pick up something and just chat for a bit. To console myself with how I've been feeling, I did a little retail therapy. I ordered the new Apple Watch 9, and will trade in my 7. I think I'll also try some Benadryl tonight to see if that helps me stay alseep. @Sharon in AZ Condolences to you on the loss of your Aunt and your DM on the loss of her sister. Enjoy the trip to San Diego. @Overhead Fred Wow on that snow; I'm glad you didn't have to drive through that for long. @smitty34877 It warms my heart to know how committed you all are to having the teenager have a great young adulthood, especially given the circumstances. @durangoscots I hope your heat is fully functional now. Good luck with your clearing projects. @Quartzsite Cruiser I'm glad you got the golf cart in working order. Handy that you have an engineer around! I'm glad there was nothing of concern on DH's CT scan. @seagarsmoker Too bad about so many of the businesses being closed. @cruising sister Thanks for the update on DB. I'm glad he did well, and can get his antibiotics not too far from home.

That's great news! I hope it continues. @superoma You all look great!

Good morning. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. Happy Halloween! No pumpkin here to carve. I don't know if I have any psychic powers. I'll salute the Girl Scout founder. A quote from one of my favorite books. I'll pass on the meal, drink and wine. Dinner will be stuffed pepper soup. I haven't been to Guernsey Island. An important day in history. It's cloudy here, and we may not get out of the 30's. Possible dusting of snow later. I have an appointment for a haircut this afternoon. I usually walk as it's around the corner, so I hope it won't be too big a challenge these days. I had less than 3 hours of sleep; whenever I'd get the pain to settle down, as soon as I laid down it was back. My leg really hurt this morning, but has settled down a bit now. I may try to do a little raking later. Not the yard, just the walkway and sidewalk, as curb pickup is tomorrow (or maybe Thursday due to Monday's rain). @Vict0riann Sorry about your walking issues; I can relate. Back in May on my TA I really couldn't do any excursions with a lot of walking (although I did in Normandy because I just had to see things). @StLouisCruisers Great photos from St. Peter Port. The book you mentioned is on my radar to read. @kazu Be careful when you go out! Thanks for the port photos. @Quartzsite Cruiser Lovely photos from St. Peter Port. @Cruzin Terri I'm glad you feel better today; I had something similar yesterday, I think due to my RA injection. Congrats on the Caribbean cruise! You two deserve some relaxation time. And very nice of someone on the roll call to invite you to join them for dinner. @smitty34877 I am glad Tana is feeling somewhat better, but sorry to hear that she's so weak. I hope that you are doing ok, as well. @ger_77 Yay on the cruise final payment. I'm glad the Ninja air fryer is working out. @cruising sister Prayers for a successful surgery for your DB. Hugs to you for getting through your DD DH's birthday. A very cute little one all dressed up. @superoma Prayers all goes well with your cataract surgery on Thursday. @RMLincoln Prayers all works out with the movers! Enjoy the visiting family. @Lady Hudson Good news. @ocean sounds Enjoy your getaway! Prayers for the Care List and Cheers for those Celebrating.

Brrr. The temperature continues to go down. @Quartzsite Cruiser You're a talented cake decorator! I'd take a slice of that too. @StLouisCruisers DD is very talented. @HAL Sailer Thanks for checking in. Quite a cool memory! I hope DH is relatively stable at this point.

Good afternoon. Thanks for the Fleet Report/Daily. I'm not a candy corn fan. I dislike mischief night; one time home from college someone egged my car and tried to sugar the gas tank (luckily the gas cap was tricky and they couldn't get it off). I frequently make checklists so as not to forget things. Funny quote. Maybe on the meal if no actual coconut, only coconut milk. I like the drink and wine. I have not been to Belfast. It's a rainy day here, with dropping temps. We were in the 50's this morning; now 47. Possible flurries tomorrow! I'm tired of not being able to do much. Can't lay or recline or stand. Trying to make my soup yesterday, I had to keep sitting down. My night was the usual. I went to PT earlier, and came back home, as I was in too much pain to do anything. It's eased off a bit now. @seagarsmoker Sorry to hear your cabin temperature is so high. @StLouisCruisers Thanks for the Belfast photos. @aliaschief That meal sounds wonderful. @RMLincoln It sounds like you're making good progress. Enjoy having family visit. @Quartzsite Cruiser Great photos. @cat shepard Nice shot of the full moon. @Nickelpenny I hope they get to the bottom of your leg numbness. @Mtn2Sea Thanks for the interesting photos. @kochleffel Enjoy the Prado. Prayers for the Care List and a Toast to those Celebrating.
