Still around

I have not posted in a long time. Too long, and I apologize. For those who follow me on Instagram, you might know that with some ongoing attempts to regulate meds after the heart attack, I am still around. MS fatigue is in high gear. Thanks for your patience; I am truly appreciative.

The cruise that almost didn’t happen

We were at the last visit with the cardiologist for awhile (🙏) when Sandy or I casually mentioned that we were had a cruise coming up and needed to cancel it. It had been booked for ages. He was immediately interested. Where are you cruising from? Port Canaveral. More questions, and he said by all means to take it. Relax, unwind, no stress. And most importantly, on a cruise there are two doctors onboard. What could be safer?

So off we went to Bermuda. The sign above is for The Frog and Onion Pub. We were told that it is world famous. It wasn’t open, so I’l just say that it is world famous in Bermuda. Then on to Nassau where the pier is long and under construction, so we stayed on the ship. The last day was a beach day. I recommend Captain Jack’s. ‘Nuff said about that. rofl👨🏼‍🦽

We never got out of sight of the ship, but we had a good time. The point is quality time together. We had a nice lunch for Sandy’s birthday and totally relaxed for a week. Then we met reality, and it took 4 hours to drive the 77 miles home from the port. Needless to say it was a bad traffic day in Florida.

There is a point to all this…

… most definitely. I don’t know how to express it, but maybe you will understand. I am thankful for my family and especially thankful to have been granted more time with Sandy. It is a bit like starting a new chapter. Please try to think of something for which you are grateful as you start and end each day. It makes a big difference.

Thank you for stopping by and being patient. Maybe I will have something more interesting to say next time. I sincerely hope so! My family is here from Thailand, but I will do my best to respond to comments and read more blogs ASAP. Again, thank you.

PD: Main photo. Close up of a hanging sign for The Frog and Onion Pub. It also says Beer and Ale. A branch partly obscures the sign. Small photo. George is at a table in a restaurant. He has blond hair. He is wearing hexagonal shaped glasses with medium green lenses and a floral shirt.
