Look for a policy which has a pre-existing condition waiver if you purchase the insurance within a certain amount of time (usually a couple of weeks or so) after your first payment for the trip. There are quite a few companies out there that offer this. We just signed up with Allianz for a...

On our first trip to the Big Island, HI, DH and I were sitting at a romantic waterside table and decided to order a good bottle of red. While we were checking out the wine list, the waitress told us she had a great recommendation--it was a really "fresh" bottle of wine. :duh:

Another Tauck river cruise fan. We did a French river cruise and it was first class all the way. I'd love to do another one and take some friends.

Retired 8 years and I still dream about w*rk. I used to travel quite a bit for the job and most of my dreams are about rushing to airports, looking for gates, missing planes, desperately trying to get home, finding rental cars, losing my way in strange cities, etc. Most of them are...

That's beautiful! I love the top pull-out 'breadboard' shelf. (I searched and found another online.) And the curved top which would allow easier access to the shelf below. Our challenge is we now have an adjustable bed, and when it's elevated a bit, it positions us too far away to easily...

We got our 2nd Pfizer shots yesterday (Friday) afternoon. Both of us were super tired last night, and I slept in til 11 am this morning. Took a late nap from 6 to 9 pm because I was still wiped out. Late tonight I feel close to 'normal' again. Upper arm is still a bit sore.

For St. Patrick's Day last year, I cooked our corned beef dinner in my new electric pressure cooker (similar to an Instant Pot). DH, whose family made great stovetop corned beef dinners for years, said it was the best he's ever had. As I recall, it took about 90 minutes.

For hands that are very dry, I prefer Aquaphor Healing Ointment seen HERE. It feels a bit greasy at first, but if you continue to massage into your hands it will absorb fairly quickly. Also great for cuticles and nails.

One of the funniest things I've seen in a while. Thanks for the laugh.

The available slots were all gone by the time we checked in. I'm looking each day, and I'll call them if something doesn't open up soon. My understanding is they want you to go back to the same location. SIL & BIL were at another pharmacy of the same chain a few days earlier and they were able...

DH and I both got our Pfizer vaccines on Friday at a local Albertsons and neither of us had side effects other than sore arms. Mine kicked in as soon as an hour after the vaccine, in spite of exercising the arm off and on the rest of the day. DH only noticed his arm soreness overnight and just...

And another of theirs. First heard this when I was 13 and we moved next door to 'older' teens who had a great collection.

ERD50, the Vanilla Fudge was also a really good version. Remember it well.

What a great legacy. My sisters and I used to listen to all their songs and knew the lyrics to most. I loved Motown music...Smokey was another favorite.
