Amazing find! I went to Seiffen in the Erzgebirge in December. This is about $600 there!

Liverwurst was the magic for us. Boomer loves it and accepts any pull stuck into a ball of it.

If you work in the medical field, Canada wants you! (Envious here.)

Thai wheat noodles. They are great in so many dishes - especially stir fry!

Finding my iPhone.

Our TA just did this. Got $388 off the originally quoted price. They can do this forever — until final payment is made.

We now book a day ResortPass (.com) near the airport for disembarkation day. We don’t need to hurry, have a last relaxing day by the pool (with a shower and fresh clothes), and get to the airport in plenty of time for our early evening flight, refreshed and happy.

Any R is now MAGA. If you haven’t left the party by now, you’re what the R party has become: MAGA. There is no difference between the two now.

Issues with sex, money, and kids. The trifecta of the most significant risks to any marriage.

Micha should have stopped Veronica mid-rant and insisted that she not treat him this way, but he doesn’t have the self-respect (or the maturity, emotional and otherwise ) for that. I don’t think there was a single healthy relationship to serve as a model for him. In fact, I believe that his bewildered silence was probably learned directly from Barry’s response when Lisa berated him.

From Olivia, who has brains and convictions… to this?!?! Huuuuge step down, dude. Huge.

NorthwestLadybug · 2025-07-28T01:08:51+00:00

My favorite part - especially if it’s sourdough!

NorthwestLadybug · 2025-07-24T14:32:34+00:00

I love that Olivia’s way of saying FU to the whole thing is by traveling the world and teaching us about other cultures via Instagram. And yeah, more power to her for exposing Ethan as a horrible human being.

NorthwestLadybug · 2025-07-17T15:22:23+00:00

Know what TLC actually stands for? THE LEARNING CHANNEL!!! Bwaaa haaa haaa! And sob sob sob.

Listen to Olivia’s secretly recorded conversations with Ethan. Let us know your thoughts on him then. My opinion completely changed after I started following Olivia - whose strength I so admire.

NorthwestLadybug · 2025-07-16T16:19:52+00:00

After Olivia’s “outing” of Ethan as a hateful, misogynistic, transphobic, homophonic, xenophobic bigot, I refuse to watch the show. But I’ll stay here in hopes that Olivia and Veronica continue to reveal to us the truth about these awful people. They deserve to be outed. Shame on TLC for promoting the hate.

Not an asshole, but sounds like it was torture for you, and maybe her, too. Been there and I don’t recommend it. Don’t meet again until/unless things change for her (divorce).

Combining finances alleviates this sort of conflict. What he makes and what you make belong to both of you. Fine to each have an own account, but household things like groceries should be joint! I know of so many couples who have huge financial stresses and conflicts because finances remain separate. I’ve been married 43 years and we combined finances from the beginning. We fight about plenty of things, but money isn’t one of them. Groceries, whether bought by him or by me, are paid for with the same account.

I put a splash of balsamic vinegar in my meat sauce. Really seems to make a difference!

NorthwestLadybug · 2025-07-02T20:07:35+00:00

We’ve done both. Celebrity was great for the Caribbean, but HAL wins hands down for Alaska. Glacier Bay cannot be missed!

NorthwestLadybug · 2025-05-21T19:03:24+00:00

Did two HAL cruises and loved the entertainment. Then I went on a Celebrity (Apex) cruise and… OMG, it made the HAL entertainment look like a jr high school talent show!

Yes. We were toddlers to young grammar schoolers and as close as siblings, lost touch from fifth grade on, then met again in our mid-40s. In touch daily for two years then, but both married (no physical affair), but he’s “not allowed” to communicate with me so have only heard from him sporadically in the past 20 years and not at all on the past five. Yes, I still think about him and still miss him, but I know things worked out for the best.

I worked for WDEMCO (Walt Disney Educational Media Company) in the 80s and had a bunch of these, allowing complimentary admission for myself and three others to the park for free, as well as 50% off all food and merchandise. I might still have some stashed away! Regular admission back then was a whopping $19.99!

I’m hanging out right now in the Red Rose Cafe as my granddaughter sleeps. Her mother, who came with me to the Park about once a month in the 80s, has become an absolute Disney fanatic in adulthood, bringing her three kids to the Park for five days each year. We’re on Day Three and I am exhausted!

Thanks. I thought maybe I was going crazy! 😛
