Hi-
Kate- I would wait until the first week in November to get your flu shot; that's when my family and I will get them. That way your antibodies last thru the end of flu season.

Kathy- my park is usually deserted, so not fun!

Have a good evening!!

Martha, even if I have to go to Europe next week? They may already be into the flu season.

Kathy, go for it with the hotel. It can't be all that bad. I like the price, and it seems pretty decent.

Working again today. I have to take it while I can to pay for my cruises. See you later. Have a good day girls.

Kate- the flu shot won't help you if you go to Europe next week anyway. It needs to be in your system at least 2 weeks to build up your antibodies.

Kathy- a lot of people believe that, but it's inactive virus so you can't "catch" the flu from the vaccine anymore. Back when, they used to use a live vaccine and a lot of people got the flu. Better now..
I am so impressed that you are walking like that.... I worked today so I guess that counts!! Hope so anyway; I am really tired.

Later......

Wow Kathy 4MPH. That is great. I need to get back walking. I have been working too much, but at least I have not gained weight.

OK Martha, I will take your advice about the shots and wait a few weeks, maybe before I go to barcelona.

At this time it does not look like I will be going to Scotland next week as I have not heard back from A. I asked him to book me but it looks like he does not have the balls to have me there at the same time as him.

All this economy stuff is so depressing. Its all gloom and doom in the UK as well from what my sister tells me. Oh well we have to get on as best we can. I am off to work. Did we get the Sleep in booked. It seems fine to me.

Hi- I'm alive!
Feel really washed out, but I'm back............ya can't keep a good woman down!!

Now the bad news; the price of the Freedom cruise increased $200 pp.!! (td)
Not sure if we can do it; it's a ridiculous amt to pay for 7 night cruise. The price of the 11 night PC cruise is just about the same as a 7 night D1!!! What's wrong with that picture?? We are still planning on booking while on the JOS, but we're talking hard about going at all. I really am sorry, but we're worried about what's left of the economy. I figured it would go up before we booked, but didn't think it would be sooooooooooo much.

What are you doing this w/e? Me, I have a hair appt. and then that's it. Too washed out to do anything else.

Enjoy today!!

I know right now Anne & Bill are on the fence about the cruise. Never say never, but we are going to be very careful next year. Still planning to book, but gosh, the price for it is astronomical!! Blows my mind it is just about the same cost for the PC cruise. I guess that's why I've always heard cruising is for the rich!!

Martha,
I am so sorry you are sick. Did you catch a virus? I hope you recover very quickly. It is horrible to be so sick. You are right about not being able to keep a good woman down though. You go girl.

I think we are all nervous about the economy. I know I am with all the uncertainty I face right now. I am beginning to think I should have taken A's offer even though it was ridiculous. It might get even worse. Lindsey thinks I should not be spending my little saving on cruises and she is probably right. I am also going to hold off on the Freedom cruise till we see how it shakes out. On the other hand everyone is affected by this and I think the prices will have to drop as no-one will be spending their money.

Meeting Lindsey for a coffee this morning. I will probably be in for another lecture.....already did my walk this morning too, so I feel good about that.

Kathy, there is something therapeutic about getting a haircut. It really does make you feel better. Enjoy.

Hope you are feeling much better today Martha. It takes so much out of you when you are vomiting and sick. How is Lee? Anymore news about his meds.

I agree Kathy, the treadmill is so boring. I have started walking the neighbourhood instead early before it gets too warm.

Heard from Marilyn yesterday I have arranged to sit with her Barb and Gerry on the VY Also with Andrew (tocanada) who I sailed with on the PC. So at least I am set for some company.

Got to run Lindsey, just called and I am meeting her this morning as we did not get together yesterday.

Have a good day

Morning.........

So Kate-did Lindsey give you what for about spending your money??:lol I hate walking around my neighborhood........its a subdivision that just goes in one big circle and its 1/3 mile around.........so I would have to circle it several times to do any good...........thats why I go to the park.....


Martha-how ya feeling today???? Bet you're getting excited about your b2b cruises..........it will be here before you know it...............

One thing I have noticed about doing this diet and drinking LOTS of water......my skin is not dry anymore........Im moistening myself from the inside out..............before I would NEVEr drink water............still not a big fan,but I know its important.........


Have a super day all.......

Hi-
Kathy- I've let my hair grow out and finally it is long enough to wear it in a bob! Lee thinks it is cute, but not sure if I can manage it. I'm so dumb when it comes to my hair. But, it looked good yesterday!!

We opened our house up yesterday and it is beautiful here today. Windy and maybe in the 60's. I love this time of year.

Kate- good luck today with Lindsey! I hope she doesn't lecture you. You have so much happening, you need her support, not lectures at the moment. Children mean well, but sometimes, they think they need to parent the parent!! =huh

I am feeling better today, and I slept better last night. Lee is heating homemade chicken soup as I type.

Have a good day................
