Something About Nothing..........#11

[macraven]

Anybody else have a love-hate thing going on with Southwest Air this morning?

sw doesn't have a great sale going on for my route.
it is only $2.70 cheaper than united.
and united has better flight hours for me.

i'm not booking yet with SW but did go thru the booking process and did a hold on it.
united usually drops the price later in the year and then goes up again on it.

i'll decide later on what to book.

What's the issue? Your post reminded me to check - how do people know what they're doing that far out? Debating jumping on reasonable fares to Boston for October (Family Weekend at college) on SW that include connections or deciding if I should take JetBlue nonstop for about the same price but no changes then if anything happens.

marcie, i booked my room last year for this october so i have my dates etched in stone.
so when "sales" for flights come out, i book right away.

i have to juggle my schedule around hhn..........

So when are you here again? Any chance of us joining you guys for just a normal HHN or in the parks? We should have one Mon or Thu or whatever it is free with the Premier passes (or whatever pass we have!).

Evening all..............

Janet.......hope you're feeling much better today.........sucks being ill!!

Had a woman come to the door earlier trying to sell something......quite unusual round here, we don't usually get anyone like that where we live.....Jehovas yes but not cold callers.....after I politely told her I wasn't interested she got bolshy........so I became frostier than a frozen chicken with her......she took the hint and left. It's bad enough these people come to your door despite having a no cold caller sign up.....then they give you grief when you politely decline their wares!!! Made me grumpy for 10 minutes

Anyone watching Better call Saul? Not sure about at all. Loved BB, but this seems much slower. May watch one or two more episodes to decide.

Hope those with bad weather are surviving ok.......we saw some amazing pictures of Boston and Niagara Falls today........wow.......

Just stopping by to say HI. It's been a hell of a week for us. My FIL is back in the hospital and today Mr bluer and I had to put our cat to sleep. We had her for 18 years so it's been a real bad day. She was one of my babies.

 

[Lynne G]

Aww, so sorry to hear about the Bluers' cat. It is always hard to say goodbye to a loved pet. Hugs to your family. Also sending strength and good thoughts to dear FIL.

Well the 0 weather will be tomorrow. Kids are hoping no or late school. Not sure. I love my heated car seats. I am such a weenie polar bear. I am not liking these low temps.

Marcie, glad to hear your cruise was good.

Enjoy Friday! Have a good night all!

So sorry to hear FiL is poorly again.......warm wishes for his recovery and sorry you have lost the kitty too.

 

[tink1957]

to the bluers ....sorry about your kitty. My thoughts and prayers are with you for your loss and a quick recovery for dad.

After hearing about -10 temps our 17 sounds like a heatwave....but I'm still cold sitting here under my warming blanket and refusing to leave till it's lunchtime....dreaming of the darkside in 2 weeks

Love the new avatar marcie!

Good morning all you cold weather people. It was 41 this morning and now 52 still cold for us. I still have shorts and a sweatshirt on though.

Yesterday was a rough day. As DW mentioned our female cat had to be put to sleep. She was 18 years old to the day. Yesterday was her birthday and passing.

For the past month or so she has become thinner and not herself. Then since this past weekend we noticed not eating as much, thinner, and not really getting comfortable. So we made an appointment at the vet yesterday. I kind of knew it was going to be a one way trip as you just know. After blood work it was apparent that she was suffering kidney failure. We could have had her admitted to the vet for 4 days to flush and treat her. Then from there either do it at home or in vet everyday the shots, supplements, and under skin hydration. With being 18 and not wanting to put her through the pain and trauma we decided it was time. It's not fair to keep her around for our want or love. She is now free of issues and got to spend some time with us for a few hours in the vet room. We were very fortunate with her as this was the second visit to a vet since all her kitten shots.

Here she is being held and comforted for the last time. Very peaceful and well protected after blood work in a strange place. RIP.
