<--hopes Shannon gets the intense work out she craves.
<--hates it when that pesky thing called LIFE gets in the way of <--'s work outs too!x(

<--missed Shannon
<--is lazing today, but will be gone most of tomorrow
<--will have breakfast with niece and friends tomorrow and then head out to Long Island for Father's Day barbecue
<--isn't too thrilled about the barbecue but will behave for DT who is looking forward to being with his fam damily
<--must consume mass quantities of coffee
<--thinks it's so cute that the Georgia DS's are putting so much time and effort into making Dad's day special
-Ms. Whineypants
 
<--tells TiG <-- is now looking for a little cruise to take for a little relaxation that leaves from New York
<--loves the idea of leaving from New York to save time and money on airports :D
<--says DT and I really need a break
<--doesn't love the food on cruises, but loves that there is no planning except to pick the cruise and go!
<--is looking for a 4 or 5 day cruise and is leaning towards a Canadian trip
<--doesn't want to sit in the sun too much
<--says DT loves biking excursions and we both love sight-seeing
<--is thinking late August - early September
<--is having fun shopping for a vacation!
-Ms. Pants
 
<--is happy for Nancy's potential cruising.
<--hopes she picks a great cruise and has a ton of fun!
<--wonders if she is partial to any cruiseline in particular?
<--has only been on one other cruise and had no complaints in the food department...
<--was THRILLED with the amount of choices and LOVED the fact that one could eat 24/7 if so desired!:9 }( :+
 
<--tells TiG she took one cruise to Alaska on a Princess ship and the dining room food was okay, but the buffet was rather low-quality
<--reminds TiG that <-- is a food snob :+
<--has been working on the cruise for the last few hours, and has decided on a 5-day Carnival cruise to Nova Scotia
<--says it's one of the few for 5 days, which is what we want
<--says the prices are fabulous, and the excursions are fabulous, even if the ship's rating is so-so
<--says for 5 days and great rates and fabulous scenery, so what if the ship is average?
<--likes cruises because you just pick your cruise, pay and you're done
<--doesn't have time or energy to plot out vacations the way she used to with guidebooks, maps, and endless hours of information-gathering
<--is getting excited at the idea of relaxing for a bit! :D
<--now wants to know every detail of TiG's cruise :p :+ :D
-Ms. WhineyPants
ETA: <-- agrees with Bobbi! Also hopes it's a very long, slow weekend!
 
<--has heard that the Princess cruiseline is one of the worst...<--has no clue if that is true...but <--was told stay away from it.
<--is going on Carnival cruise as well...heard it's a party line. <--has been told that it's a popular cruiseline for the young partyin' folks!
<--was also told that the food on Carnival is so-so.
<--wonders if Nancy now wants to find another cruiseline to book with?
<--is just repeating what <--has been told.
<--'s ship departs on Wednesday at 4pm for a couple days at sea...arrives in Puerto Rico at 3pm on Saturday...leave PR at midnight...arrives in St. Thomas at 7am Sunday morning...leaves St. T at 6pm....arrives in Tortola at 7am Monday morning...leaves Tortola at 2pm....is at sea for another couple days and arrives back home in NY, NY at 9am on Thursday morning.
<--went on Norwegian for HM and loved it!
 
<---is completely delighted to see Bobbi Chick posting here
<---waves happy weekend to Nancy for the first time
<---tells TiG <---isn't one for a cruise but the thought of food 24/7, lying in lounge chair on deck with drink in hand is mighty tempting
<---is a dizzy drunken woman today thanks to first dose of increase BP medication
<---can only sit still and read or type without moving head
<---must rise sloooooowly from seated position
<---says DSs are making fun of <---
<---says not to worry this was first day affect when <---began the original BP medication cause body is adjusting to lower BP
<---wonders if <---is talking to self
<---edits to wave again to Nancypants ^ and v:7
 
<--thinks TiG's cruise sounds wonderful!
<--just looked it up and TiG's ship is MUCH more highly rated than the ship <-- chose, which is important because yours is a longer cruise
<--thinks that more elderly decrepit (sp?) types go to Nova Scotia so DT and <-- will be right at home :p :+
<--takes advantage of almost none of the activities on the cruise ship, just takes the excursions and is otherwise reading on a lounge chair or going to the gym
<--LOVES the opportunity to read and really savors it
<--keeps asking but still doesn't know if Joey is going or staying with grandma???
-Ms. Whineypants
 
<---comes back to tell <---noone is here to talk
<---slowly rises from chair to see what DS and DH are doing
<---waves bye bye:)
<---comes back to edit note to Shannon
<---strongly suggests you get the book "Framework" by Dr. Nicholas A. DiNublie (Cathe's doctor) and read and follow in revamping your exercise routines
<---is reading it and it addresses physiological, psychological issues (as stress factors and relief advice), nutrition, prevention, alterations for those of us already dealing with framework issues, etc.
<---highly recommends it, but that's just <---viewpoint
<---bye bye again:D
 
<---hopes everyone is having a lovely Saturday
<---will be here on and off for awhile
<---hopes someone else is here too....
<---just finished a lovel workout - SB and CM 3!
<---feels fantabulouso!
<---must be completely looney
<---rearranged furniture today so that the comfy seating is in the tiny office, the desk is in a corner of the former living room and...... a HUGE area of the living room is now open for workouts only!!!!
<---did this because <--- plans to get some sort of aerobic mats to cover a very large area and simply couldn't think of any way to arrange the furniture to make it fit
<---thinks Tig is very close to a mere THREE days on the countdown now
<---hopes Melody adjusts quickly to the BP med and is darned sorry to hear she had to increase the dose
<---kind of admires Nancy for being a food snob because <--- simply doesn't have the food exposure to be one!
<---will poke around and do bills and stuff, but will be back later
<---is having so much fun posting!!! :7
 
<---loves to "hear" Shannon having fun
<---thanks her for the BP-well wishes and assures her <---is still on a low dose
<---loves the furniture re-arrangement plan as it shows Shannon's priorities are in order:7
<---hopes Shannon considers reading the ^-mentioned book
<---has to take <---'s dizzy-drunken butt outta here for a bit
<---hopes to catch Shannon in and out
<---hopes to catch everyone in and out
 
<---is glad Melody is still on a low dose!
<---has wondered about the ^-mentioned book and thought about getting it
<---is glad to hear Melody likes it and may follow her advice
<---wonders if the book is available locally or only on Dr. Nick's website
<---thinks it's very weird to see this big open space in the living room....
