Anyone cruise on Princess recently?  
 

I’ve just done some searching for July this summer and RC prices are insane and we are considering the Enchanted Princess. It won’t have the flair of the RC big girls but that’s OK.  One week on her is half the cost of a week on a Freedom Class ship, and her inaugural cruise was November 2021.  That would be in a comparable OS.

 

We have done 12 cruises with Princess but haven’t sailed with them in over 10 years.

I don't think Taylor Swift will be at the Super Bowl. She has a scheduled concert in Japan. 

Maybe they will move the SB to Japan to accommodate her.

No, but if you try Princess I'd love to get your thoughts.

Should consider MSc yacht club , way more perks that rccl , thousands less than celebrity suites, internet and drink package is included, private pool and hot tubs, lounge has nice entertainment.

Last one we did with them was 2017, but we are booked on the new Sun next January.  Their inaugural was supposed to be on 2/4, sailing the Med, but it got cancelled because the ship wouldn’t be completed. 
 

Royals prices were way to high, and we could get the new ship with all included, much less than Oasis.

Lucy, is that you?  

 

 

 

Yes, yes it is.  She’s staring at the bird feeder.

They belong to my son who lives in Colts Neck, I wish I saw them more often.  They are so much fun along with the older one Wendall. Poor Wendall is on medication for heart failure, he is thirteen years old.

Not really, just some high school-type pettiness from the local Mean Girls squad 😉😇  Some people can't let go of a, um, lets say "personality conflict" for lack of a better phrase.

Poor Jimbo. I think his words and how he says things are taken out of context sometimes.  Deep down I believe he means well.

I agree with you.  He reminds me of my FIL Art who has passed; the occasional comment could be worded better or just not made to avoid a situation. 

 

 

I agree with both.  Often times, it's a case of "shoot the messenger, not the message". People speculate all the times about all the things. Had you or I posted the exact same thing, nobody would raise an eye brow.

I really hope he's just taking a voluntary time out & has not been issued an invitation to play monopoly.  While some of this postings may not always be agreeable, I've never seen anything that breaks the rules. Unless the magic fairy dust gets sprinkled pretty quickly.

Someone is having a birthday today. Jade is two years old.

 

 

 

Once Leonard awakes from his 17 hours of slumber, he'll wish Jade a happy belated birthday.

my first cat Chelsea she would let me do that. Kylar won’t even let anyone of us hold him except for my son. He does like to be petted.

[helen haywood]

Well, cats are like women.  No two alike.  Extremely mysterious.  😁

All 4 cats that we had liked to be petted but agree they all had different personality.

I actually like the Chiefs, but sooo sick of the whole Kelce/T Swift media obsession. Never, ever been a fan of the Niners. Sorry to all the NorCal folks 🙂

Yes I wish the media would leave them alone. But I am very happy for them. Great love story.

 

 

Not just the media. American Airlines is getting in on the act.  Direct flights from KC to LV aboard AA Flight 15 (Mahomes)  or AA Flight 1989 (Swifts birth year). Return trip on AA Flight 87 (Kelsce)

Wonder which flight # will sell out first?🙂

I read where she can finish her concert in time to fly back for the Super Bowl. The last concert in Japan is the tenth so doable.  Her Australia tour is a few days after the Super Bowl.  She is young, she can handle the jet lag!!!

 

Maybe she can perform at the halftime show and Usher & Reba can be her backup singers? 😁

I do as well. She has grown up nicely.

I can pet Leonard until my arm falls off.  Not big on belly rubs but his neck, ears, nose, chin, throat, back, he can never get enough.  The fact he allows me to pet his throat is amazing, that's a very trusting animal. 

 

The mysterious thing is he refuses to sit on anyone's lap and only my step daughter can hold him. And that is only for a minute at the most  He was a 6-8 week old stray when she found him so maybe he had an early life trauma?  Otherwise, he's extremely affectionate. He recognizes the sound of her car when she pulls into the driveway & runs to the front door to greet her. He never does that with any other car. He will follow us from room to room, sit on the arm of my chair and head butt me until I start petting him. And if I ignore the head butt long enough, he'll gently bite on my shirt sleeve & pull my arm towards him as if to say "Pet me! NOW!"

 

It's been established he's the alpha male in this household 😛

United airlines doing the same thing Among the flight numbers are UA 1989, for the singer's album; UA 2287, a combination of Swift's hit song "22" and Kelce's jersey number; and UA 1587, which combines Kelce's jersey number with that of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who is 15.

 

I don’t have a problem with any of it. It’s all in fun and let’s face it the Super Bowl is all hype.

 

Wouldn’t that be a surprise if she performed with Usher.

 

And yes I think she is one of the most natural beautiful woman in this he world. I’m not embarrassed to say I respect her greatly.
