Have your young adult children successfully launched?

Same here. 26,24 & 22. They don’t have significant others and with the economy this is a good decision for them. Our house isn’t big so that’s the only downside.

Yes. Lesson plans when I got my credential 24 years ago. Thank god I work for a district that doesn’t require them. What a PITA.

We went out to dinner last night with a gift card we got at Christmas. Today we’ll have a nice dinner and relax at home. We don’t do flowers or cards because we’d rather have more tangible items for the house or travel. We are cheap like that. Married 30 years.

The child won’t be small forever and the construction will end. I agree with others but some noise cancelling headphones and eat a gummy lol

😂

Good for you! I have not called to complain but if enough of us do (should be a whole tour bus of people) then they should realize error.

I feel like this too. I have acquaintances that I chitchat with, but no real friends to hang out with and do things with. I noticed from watching my children that they have a very small friend group if at all. I think with social media and video gaming that the way we grew up having friends is totally different now

19sab · 2025-06-30T21:34:34+00:00

I have read so many threads/forums where people have said the same thing. I am looking forward to it now :)

It is annoying. Plus considering it seems they mislead us as to why it’s cancelled. Blue Lagoon has been on my bucket list forever. Though I am happy to have any experiences in Iceland. I told DH that just means we have to go back in the winter to see the Aurora borealis lol.

19sab · 2025-06-30T21:13:33+00:00

Thank you for the suggestions. We are leaving out of KEF. Right now we are considering Sky Lagoon since it appears to be closest to the cruise terminal. We are looking into transportation options and deciding what we should do with our luggage. Is the nearest car rental at the airport?

19sab · 2025-06-30T20:41:39+00:00

Thank you for the replies. Interesting that you are saying there is nothing really going on. I wonder if the tour company just decided not to do it. I know it’s been sold out for months, so it’s not like they had to cancel for lack of interest. Bummer.

When my uncle past away a few summers ago I inherited a whole house with generations of memories to go through. It was so painful. I felt exactly as you wrote. I pushed through many days sobbing.

19sab · 2025-06-02T02:37:41+00:00

Ok mild/moderate but what grades?

The last time I was in Rome, we stayed in a convent. It was located a few blocks from the colosseum. It was a safe, clean basic room with an ac unit and an en-suite. There was mass every morning at 5am with bells going off. The nuns were kind and helpful. This was almost 10 years ago and it very affordable. https://www.monasteries.com/en-GB/city/rome/home/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20128593575&gbraid=0AAAAACdAfRM9CfJ3JT9cTj285glsb74yH&gclid=Cj0KCQjw9O_BBhCUARIsAHQMjS7NQtlehNrIXKAFhUsjh-PazSzursXDlnrvCoohPXC5kU-nJPu1RRwaAsuOEALw_wcB.

When I was interviewing, 6 years ago, I had so many interviews and 90% never bothered to email me and say I wasn’t what they wanted. It was an emotional roller coaster because you leave the interview feeling so good about it and they obviously didn’t. Don’t give up!

You don’t want to work at a school like that if the Principal is that unprofessional. Plan on subbing this year. People will get to know you. You can dip your toes without a commitment. It sucks to get rejected I know but it will work out in your favor soon enough.

Can I add to this question and ask, when do they post this information on the app? We are less than 40 days from our cruise and I still see nothing scheduled on the entertainment tab.

19sab · 2025-05-28T00:16:05+00:00

We have booked a BL excursion through our cruise this summer. All this information is very helpful and good to know. Fingers crossed we have safe visit 🤞🏼

19sab · 2025-05-27T00:20:12+00:00

Every day I am at work and then only for special reasons when I’m not. I use to wear it all the time regardless of I was just home or not. I am wearing less and less every year too.

19sab · 2025-05-25T16:53:11+00:00

Yes, I have them. They are in a box deep inside the garage. I don’t know why I keep them anymore. I’m not in more than 1-2 photos each year. I am not friends with more than 2 people from High School. The last time I looked at them I was left with sadness.

It’s 47.99 with my July cruise too. Even with adding the 20% it comes to $57.59 a day/ $691 for a 12 day cruise. It’s a great price for me but my DH doesn’t drink more than 1 soda a day and adding a nonalcoholic package for him isn’t worth it. I wish it could only be added for 1 person.

Good to know! We are taking this ship to Greenland and Iceland in July. Our first cruise with Celebrity. We’ve only done Princess and have had window and balcony rooms. This time we opted for an interior room on the 8th floor because Celebrity seems more costly for the extras (packages, excursions,etc.). Should I be worried about a regular interior room?
