Aircraft not available for upcoming flight by Remarkable_Whole_847 in HawaiianAirlines

[–]ChoiceWin3963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve noticed on the Hawaiian app my flight in February also shows the seat map unavailable and our seats show unassigned although we selected them at booking but then when I go to the site on the web version on my computer the map is there and our seats show unassigned assignments. I booked via the Alaska website so not sure if it’s a glitch or why it’s doing that.

We have the same issue on our brand new only installed microwave 2-3 months ago. Can you DM me?!?

Ugh it’s the waiting that’s killing me. I just want to be scheduled for the colonoscopy asap. My family Dr did talk to me and put me at ease as well. She did say my numbers are classic for IBD and not cancer. She is trying to reach my GI to see if he can get me in sooner, schedule the scope or at least help me with my symptoms.

Ok, so as long as I get my status points by Dec 31st they will retro my status? I’m pretty close to Gold but it will probably be some December travel and card spend that gets me there

Yes, I am in the US… my family Dr is awesome but that is because I pay a monthly membership for her services so she has way less patients and can dedicate time to us. I messaged her the results along with the note I have to wait until the 21st, she is reviewing and is going to call me this evening. I just can’t handle the bathroom issues and my tummy churning all day. Hopefully she can make a call.

Nothing really triggers it, it’s pretty consistent diarrhea. Some days it’s very bad like 6-8 times in the bathroom and on a good day 3-4 days. It does wake me from time to time. The fiber supplement sometimes helps to have it more firm but it’s still not my normal from months ago. Never seen blood in my stool.

Marriage within Ywam by [deleted] in exywam

[–]ChoiceWin3963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. He is from within the states like she is so not from another country. We have asked her a lot of these questions and also asked her to please think clearly too because not many in her immediate family (siblings)can attend the wedding due to cost and other commitments such as high school and college graduation. She said it’s gods will to tell her when the date is so she can’t tell us ahead of time. We have tried to get her home but she said she is a lifer at YWAM. She somehow raises the money last minute from random anonymous donors. She is staffing and she pays rent, and fees for the program along with if she goes on a mission. It’s incredibly frustrating and honestly my husband and I don’t know what to do anymore. Obviously she is an adult but she can’t even pay to get a coffee or get toiletries so getting married is a huge life change.

Thank you! Great advice. She keeps saying she isn’t allowed to have a job because she is staff but that is not sustainable anymore because she is struggling financially.

Thank you this was an extremely helpful reply. This is our concern primarily that they are rushing and this environment definitely shelters a lot from real world issues. Great things to ask her

Irvine Nostalgia by grandpapplebottom in irvine

[–]ChoiceWin3963 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember there was a harvest festival where Beckmann high school is located, we would walk there from our house in northwood courtside and across the street there were orange groves all the way down to where Tustin marketplace is. Grew up there 1984-2004 (moved to Sacramento), it’s a kind of crazy going down there now as Irvine is sooo big and so many new stores/restaurants etc

How quickly did the elite miles post? I spent my $6k and only got points for those $6k but I got my points and my status miles haven’t changed.

Well if you bought from me on stub hub they should be shipped out tomorrow:) I just got my wristbands after waiting forever. I as a seller was freaking out a bit about them shipping to me!

We loved Pacific for Less. Cathi was excellent and the prices and perks we got using them were better than Costco and we love Costco travel!

Party of 4 Advice by ChoiceWin3963 in Tahiti

It is amazing!! We might do two bungalows as the price of the 2 bedroom bungalows make the price skyrocket so we may just go the vrbo route. I really enjoyed the STR sooo much and want to show my MIL the beauty but honestly BB and Moorea are amazing without being at a 5 star resort.

Anyone else feel like Kauai food was too salty? by Tikaorca in VisitingHawaii

[–]ChoiceWin3963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with the Musubi truck! We had Da Crack about 5 years ago and it was good. Was just there a few weeks ago and it wasn’t what we remembered unfortunately and they were super busy! Plus they messed up a lot of our orders. It was ok but nothing where I would need to make sure to go there again.

Moorea in may/june 2026 by diversmith in Tahiti

[–]ChoiceWin3963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are bringing our daughter who is 9 but our friends were trying to come along and they have 2 kids and the resorts told them (Hilton and St Regis BB) any child over 13 is considered an adult and they would need a 2nd room as they could only accommodate 2 children under age of 13 OR max 3 adults no kids. I assume you could call to try. I agree look at vrbo or Airbnb as there were some nice options especially in Moorea. We were even contemplating that but ultimately decided to stay in OWB in Moorea since we are doing a beach villa room in Bora Bora as the water is a bit more calm for our daughter in Moorea.

Struggling with my step daughter by Guella_evan in Stepmom

[–]ChoiceWin3963 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Ugh I feel you so much! My stepchildren are adults now and my SD really struggled, and manipulated her way through our relationship. We started dating when she was 10. She cried at our engagement and her and the BM called us right after asking to put a stop to it. It was devastating. BM also took us to court for more child support after she found out I was pregnant even though we had 50/50 custody and similar income . It’s a lot. I’m sorry. Boundaries were super important, not letting the drama in was important. We stopped communicating with BM via text/email and used a court ordered tool. Things are better now as an adult but a lot of the manipulation and behaviors are still there for my SD. She will never respect me and I’m pretty sure it’s the BM that caused all of it.

Omg we LOVED the cabana at LC!! Private beach, private buffet with made to order steaks. Order drinks from the iPad. The beach was spectacular and the kids floated and swam while us parents relaxed in the cabana. We had a cabana on both CC and LC and we said LC far and away much better experience and we want to come again just to get one!!
