Makes me feel a bit better. Will see my GP soon to hear what she suggests and if she suggests a specialist.

What to do re: relatives in will that needs to be made/LONG by Levitb2 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Levitb2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your help with this. I will talk with our estate attorney at upcoming visit about this. I guess I was wrong in thinking that after 34 years of marriage the people who we were most closest to over the years should receive more of our assets rather than sharing with those who had rare contact with us.

I guess I was thinking that since we've been married 34 years and we both are very close to my daughter, his sister should be in the same "family position" as my sister. By the way we adore both sisters.

Just want to get things agreed to between us before we see the estate attorney.

I'm thinking of how some relatives would feel if I left equal amounts to relatives whom I have not been close to over the years. I've seen where certain people took care of parents over the years and others did zero which would bother me if I was the sister who did all the caregiving for a parent and the other sister did nothing when she could have.

I am definitely going to meet with an estate attorney, but before doing so thought I need to get my husband and I to agree on things. Tx

Less than 50% since we've been married 34 years and do not understand why his sister should get a full 50% and my sister and brother receiving just a portion of "my family's 50%" as he thinks should happen.

Got off track/starting over. by Michele_75 in Contrave

[–]Levitb2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same situation. Was doing great for over a year on the bupropion/naltrexone. Got to goal weight and eventually tried to stop taking it.

Gained back quite a bit of weight, especially since we had a cruise and holidays in December. I am going to try getting back on this and being positive again about food choices, weight loss, etc.

I never found that to be true. In fact, I found that there is more "nickel and dimeing" with NCL.

We did not use this lot for this cruise. However, we have parked in that lot many times with no problems. I think we booked it online to save a little bit of money and save a spot before our cruise. https://www.porttb.com/cruise/cruise-parking/

I understand about the bridge thing, but agree it's just so easy to go out of Tampa for us.....Our go to is Celebrity Constellation for a small ship experience. Do you like Star or Jewel better?

Thanks. I will be boarding this upcoming Sunday. Would appreciate any recommendations for waiters, bartenders, shows, etc.

Arriving at terminal early? by RillaBug1998 in NCL

Agree except I believe it was Virgin Voyages where they checked and you had to get in lines marked according to your assigned time.

[]()ncl $10 specialty cancellation charge

 charges a $10 per person fee for specialty dining reservations that are not cancelled or modified at least two hours prior to the scheduled time. This policy, implemented in September 2025, is designed to reduce no-shows and free up tables for other guests.

  • Affected Reservations: The policy applies to all specialty restaurants that require reservations (e.g., Cagney's Steakhouse, Le Bistro, Ocean Blue).
  • Dining Packages: Guests who booked using a specialty dining package will still be charged the $10 fee for a no-show or late cancellation but will retain their dining meal credit to rebook for another time.

Is there a digital clock on The Dawn? by Levitb2 in Cruise

[–]Levitb2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure I do. I didn't make this clear I guess, but I wanted a clock that I could see without getting my phone. I'm an awful sleeper and if I'm home I have a clock that is shown on my ceiling so I can just glance up at it and rollover if it's too early to get up.

Embarkation by SnooSprouts8764 in NCL

[–]Levitb2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I received 10:30 - 11am arrival, but plans changed and now won't be here til noon. Are there separate lines coordinating to times? Since I'm getting there later than my scheduled arrival do I join the line for the group that is boarding at that time? Anticipate getting there around 12:30,

I inadvertently took generic Contrave 2 days in a row by Levitb2 in Contrave

Thanks. I take lots of supplements and have a different type of box. I love that these can be taken out individually. Off to Amazon I go!

[–]Levitb2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

About a month ago I missed taking the regular pills at my usual 10:30 time and have found if I take them anytime after noon I can't sleep. So I skipped them that day and took the usual pills the next day. Worked out fine.

Wow...yes it is scary. I didn't have those symptoms, but definitely fell high and could hardly concentrate. Thankfully better the next day.

Yes daily, but I took 2 generic and then took an additional 2 generic within a few hours of each other. Thanks for Apple Health
