I hope your symptoms are mild. 
Indeed. But I tell you something...if they pull this no passholder discounts except on single night tickets in September crap again I will have to cut ties with them for good. Getting tired of losing discounts and spending more money...what's the point of having an AP?
Not going to HHN but am going to Universal at end of the month. I hope they make masks mandatory for inside places and rides, & queues. I’ll be wearing one regardless and hope it’s enough. In light of new variant that can bypass immunity from vaccine I think this will be my last trip for awhile.
I understand completely.
Yep, fully vaccinated since early February. I guess it could be a lot worse. If I wasn’t vaccinated my symptoms would probably be a lot worse than they are now.Charade I’m so sorry you tested positive.
Were you vaccinated? I am a little behind news! Scary about break through infections. And now on morning news another variant they’re watching, MU. This one does infect vaccinated people. Started in Columbia.
Good morning all! Sunshine here too, but weekend is going downhill of course for the last long weekend of the summer. I can’t complain though because we still have fires burning around the province
Having my cup of coffee, a must to start the day. Only with milk. I don’t like creamer in my coffee or tea. And never sugar. By afternoon I switch to tea! Lots of Bubble Tea places here. Not for me. Way too sweet.
Since we’re sharing, we were married in 1981, 40th is next one!
Happy Anniversary to Schumi
Lynne do you have one coming up too?
Lynne I always buy bottled water in Florida and must use to make coffee or tea otherwise that water makes it taste awful yuck.
I hate the time changes. Wish they’d just decide on one time, standard or daylight savings.
Schumi, referred to my hunt for new kitchen lighting. Hope search isn’t too long. Going out again today.
Nice long walk for you today! I should get out before the rains come tomorrow.
chai- I once had the best ever chai at a farmers market booth. A woman was serving it up, told me it was an old family recipe that’s been passed down. And it was delicious..
Charade I’m so sorry you tested positive.

Right now Virginia is only offering them to people who are immune compromised. I will get it when it is offered to the general public.
I hope so too.
They are offering them down here but after the side effects I had from the second shot in January I will think long and hard about getting a booster.
everyone it's starting out sunny and warm today. We are suppose to have rain move in this afternoon early evening. Ususally it doesn't last long and we can walk, so hoping that is the case. Our walk got rained out last night but I was able to make it in the pool in the afternoon.
...it's all good though and I won't complain.
I'm waiting on DH to see if he can clear his work schedule....otherwise he may be bumped by a friend.I just cannot…as a fisherwoman, in my mind I see salmon eggs, often used as bait.
It is a tough one tho lol
The outcry over Tim Tracker not being invited to media night has been deafening.
No idea he had such an enthusiastic fan base. To each their own, absolutely not a fan of his videos.
I fly them frequently. Have enjoyed my share of $27 flights to FL for bonus trips as well as many freebie ones on earned points. There’s just something about getting a cancellation email a little over a day prior to my flight that has me pumping my brakes lol.
to distress my life, walked away from RT for 3of us re upcoming trip. We’ll book them again when the travel bug does bite us. I just will make sure to have cancellable SWA booked on points for same route
hope u do take the plunge!
Carbs are my absolute downfall....the struggle is real!I can see iced tea being hard for Brits. It's just not in your genes. It gets pretty hot here, so hot tea isn't always nice. Plus, iced tea flavors nasty tap water pretty nicelyThe iced tea I have now is passionfruit vanilla black tea. It's from a company called Tealeaves. They used to supply the tea for the Grand Floridian tea room at Disney. Their tea isn't cheap, but some of it is just amazing. I have had the tea at Harrods when we went to London years ago. That's one of my souvenirs when we travel. It was rather good and not expensive. I absolutely loved the food hall. I so want to go back.
We have really good peaches here in Central Texas too. When I was a kid, my great grandmother would grow peaches in her orchard. We would eat them sliced with milk or cream poured on them.
Being in the home of Tex Mex and also BBQ, it gets pretty tough. I am an all or nothing kind of person, so it's either all healthy or all bad. Waiting until the Formula 1 race ni town and Halloween to be bad for a bit.
I do keto for weight loss and health reasons. I started it to lose weight but soon realized it really helped with my allergies, eczema, digestive issues, and diverticulitis. My husband and son are good at accommodating me, when I cook. They get a break when we get to go food.
Ugh! Definitely get tested. Hope things are resolved soon.
Keto is so great for diabetes, from what I hear. I try to avoid things that carby, even when low carb, to help retrain my brain to not love the carbs and sugar. Otherwise, I would just go nuts and eat all the carbs
We are big on bacon here. I have to have mine almost burnt though. My son, who barely eats anything, can eat a whole package of bacon by himself. We have to fight him off to keep him from eating our portion. I think we will cook bacon this weekend, since it's a long weekend.
You would hate the bubble tea at the China booth for the Epcot Food & Wine festival. The boba are black!!
I am a bit surprised that they didn't invite him. He's really popular. I have watched some of his stuff but not much lately. My favorite Universal podcast, the Unofficial Universal Orlando Podcast, got invited for the first time this year. The founders of the podcast are in England and haven't been able to make it to the US in 2 years, so the other 2 US-based hosts are attending.
Bacon rolls need to find their way to menus around here!I don`t like Tim Tracker......never got the love folks have for him. But I don`t watch any vlogger anyway. I much prefer the written word than listen to someone prattle on.....I did try to watch a couple of times, but got incredibly bored, and add the kid in the mix.....not for me.
Wonder why he was excluded though.
I know TeaLeaves! They don`t ship internationally yet, but I have cousins who will send anything for me, haven`t looked there for a while as we have so many options, but I can see why you like them, they have some nice teas. Harrods have a good range of online offerings, not just what they offer in the restaurants and they have an excellent delivery service.
Yes, iced tea isn`t a think over here at all.
Good luck for today and hope the result is a good one and it`s just a cough. I hate honey, but for a sore throat, honey, large squeeze of lemon in hot water/tea/hot lemonade is wonderful.
Hope you got some sleep and feel better today.
Slept ok, it got quite hot during the night again even with the windows open, so hoping today is a nice quiet day like yesterday weather wise. Looks to be ok.
Never usually watch tv this early, but watching NYC and NJ and the flooding is horrific to see, such devastation too with folks homes being blown away.
Today, out walking this morning and meeting friends for bacon rolls in one of the cafe`s afterwards. It closes for the winter at the end of September which is a shame, but some places here are seasonal and they don`t open again till March/April. There are plenty of other places though.
Hoping I get an email to say what time my delivery is coming today and hope we`ll be in, we do leave the gates open and they can leave things in a safe place or they drop it in the farm. Either way hope the Champagne comes today.
Piece of toast this morning to keep us going till later, and yes, morning tea.
Looking forward to hearing reports from some friends who will be at HHN this weekend!!! TM preview sounded so good......saw a few videos from them and yep, will be fun.
Have a wonderful Friday.......
I always make my coffee and tea sweet. Usually honey and maybe milk in the tea. Always a flavored creamer in my coffee.Ah, a good morning here. And what does a clear sky in the overnight do this time of year? Ooh, 55 degrees out. I’d say a tad cool start. But not complaining. Glorious sunny morning, with a partly cloudy afternoon, and a most pleasant 73 the high.
Thanks Sue. There are some in my area that will have still storm clearing to do, and the flooding in the City will be around for another day, but as all those with flooding, the clean up will commence when no water around. I am very thankful we are good.
Ooh bubble tea. I have had some, but it does seem almost too sweet, and well, I just like my tea plain, though I do put a slice of lemon in it once in awhile. And not British at all, I am no fan of milk or any creamy addition to my tea. But a tea fan I am. My mom always had a cup of tea, my dad, coffee, never tea. I like both, but prefer tea most of the time. I will also drink iced coffee too. That I tend to add cream to, as I like it a little sweet. But as it’s that morning routine for me, the tea is hot, as a tea kettle whistle was a half hour ago. And I too bring a electric kettle on vacation. Making tea from water through the coffee maker? Um no. I also use water bottle water, as I’m not fond of tap water drinking in Florida.
Ooh still dark out. Yep, time of the year, the Fall flavors, candy, food, drinks, and decor start to appear. And shorter days until the time change, and then until the winter solstice, a nice gift right before Christmas. As by Christmas, we start to have that daylight stay around a few minutes later every day. Well. Until we loose an hour going back to that daylight savings time. Then dark when I’m done on week days, and a bit brighter starting. Ah but yes, this starts the time of year, I’d be commuting in the dark, and coming home in the dark. We will see. So far, not a good time to be inside with many, all day.
Charade, hope you get a negative result soon, and then can have your scan. Yeah, older one is sniffing at time, as he’s been on his allergy medication for at least a month. Pollen in the air sets off his asthma. Until a hard frost, he’s taking medicine most of the year.
And so, this week day routine is on its last day, that Fabulous Friday is here. Yay!
Ooh a little shorter day for me, and a half day for Metro. Perfect way to start the weekend early.
Champagne will be a nice surprise for Tom!!
A party with friends tomorrow. Not sure about rest of weekend...
Woo hoo! Another $200 in the vacation fund....always nice!
Glad you were able to sleep through the cat feeding, lol!
Sorry to hear Charade.....well wishes heading your way!!
We have our 25th anniversary coming in May. Supposed to go to Hawaii, but will see what the world looks like and buy travel insurance if we do book.Good morning all!

Were you vaccinated? I am a little behind news! Scary about break through infections. And now on morning news another variant they’re watching, MU. This one does infect vaccinated people. Started in Columbia.
We are just a couple months after you! Will be 25 years in May.
Breakfast was a bowl of oatmeal, I am now on a lower the cholestorol life style change, I have to do some changes but had made some smaller changes. Lunch will be a protein and veggies with a piece of fruit and almond butter for a snack. Dinner is going to be the hardest part because the kids are not going to want to eat what I am. Brian will do more of what I do, he got put into lifestyle change jail too.
I will share too....Brian and I will be 25 years in January and we are going to celebrate with a night or two at Portofino Club Level. We will also get the spa with it, which is a sauna, indoor spa and work out room. I am very excited!!
Charade I am sorry about your test results and not feeling good. I hope you get plenty of rest and feel better soon. I totally understand not making it public I have a few friends and family would be saying stuff too. I always loved PB&J as a kid. and sometimes PB and fluff.
Keishashadow I am sorry to hear about your mom in the nursing home. I don't understand how health care workers will not get vaccinated. I hope she stays healthy and safe.
Robbie I love your trees, they are beautiful. I absolutely love the pic of the fox on the rock. My house has a preserve accross the water but I don't know if I have them. I fo know that I have a bob cat, deer and alligator wandering.
Lori the round trip ticket prices sound really good it would be hard not to to plan something, decisions decisions! Liv and I enjoy bubble tea but we like the tapioca pearls the best. We have a good boboa shop near us.
Lynne I hope you enjoy your family get together, it's always a nice thing to do. I do miss it a bit. Glad you are able to do your lunch time walks, thought about that here with Brian but a bit too hot.
Mac understand the days and eyes blending together, I am glad you were able to make it on. Cat hearding at an early hour is a tough job.
Sonaim I thought I was the only one who enjoyed very dark bacon, it's a lovely thought. I am a tea drinker too like a hot cup of caffiene free at night. I do enjoy iced tea here, I usually buy it but I am going to try and make my own. I really have to do more of that watching what I eat.
Metrowest Have a great weekend. I agree with you on the AP holder HHN benefits, I was a bit disappointed this year too.
Realfoodsfan Glad there was a good first day of school. A bath and story sounded good.
Carole 9 miles is great! I told Brian yesterday I want to start working up to more miles, going to do it slow though. I love red anything in clothing, I hope it is what you want. I hope you enjoy your lunch with your friends this weekend.
Sue glad that you found a reliable customer service airline you like. It can be very stressful worrying about flights. No HHn for me either will enjoy meet ups and the parks.
A special hello to all the SANS family who is missing, hope everyone is well.
Have a great day!

I'm waiting on DH to see if he can clear his work schedule....otherwise he may be bumped by a friend.
I don't mind Tim Tracker, but his wife is annoying. Too much kiddo content now too.....he's a cute boy tho!
Carbs are my absolute downfall....the struggle is real!
Bacon rolls need to find their way to menus around here!
You can get a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. They are good, but not nearly enough bacon!!
I always make my coffee and tea sweet. Usually honey and maybe milk in the tea. Always a flavored creamer in my coffee.
Maybe I don't like either drink, and I'm just covering them up with sugar? Lol!
Champagne will be a nice surprise for Tom!!
A party with friends tomorrow. Not sure about rest of weekend...
Woo hoo! Another $200 in the vacation fund....always nice!

We have our 25th anniversary coming in May. Supposed to go to Hawaii, but will see what the world looks like and buy travel insurance if we do book.
We are just a couple months after you! Will be 25 years in May.
Anxiously waiting to hear back from DH, or I may invite a friend to go along.
Very dreary day with lots of cloud cover. These days make me sleepy....I'll need to do something soon or I may doze off.
Still hoping to book something to Florida or Las Vegas. Parents definitely want LV, but my annual pass lures me to UO. I may bring a friend to UO, if DH won't take off of work. First world problems and such!
Anyone ever try Pilates? I signed up for 3 classes and begin next week, but not sure what to expect. Trying to add variety to my exercise and figured why not give it a go?
I pulled out the Haunted Mansion D&B purse! It was the right move, and put a smile on my face! Never too early for Halloween
Definitely take care of yourself. Hopefully, it will be very mild, since you are vaccinated.Changing eating habits is so hard. Sounds like a great breakfast and lunch. I love oatmeal. I usually have to tell them to burn the bacon, because restaurants just don't get how much I really want it cooked....
