and we did it before 3:30 pm Eastern time. That's not bad!

I'm up, I'm up - nine hours of very good sleep.

Ordered a chicken Caesar salad from Stanley's and added cashews to it - thought that might add a little something.

It definitely added two dollars.

Good afternoon.

I am back from Indiana, which was cold, gray, and rainy.

Laura · « **Reply #98 on:** March 25, 2025, 02:26:31 PM »

It is 95 in Phoenix currently.

We packed our stuff in carry-on bags -- one was an old rolling computer bag I never use any more. Plus my backpack and a couple of sling backpacks.

Laura · « **Reply #100 on:** March 25, 2025, 02:29:11 PM »

They pushed people to gate-check the bags, so we checked the roller bag. Saved us $40 each way.

Laura · « **Reply #101 on:** March 25, 2025, 02:30:17 PM »

We had (sorta) argued about checking a bag. When I pointed out it would be $40 each way, he agreed to pack lighter.

Laura · « **Reply #102 on:** March 25, 2025, 02:31:21 PM »

I have not caught up.

Laura · « **Reply #103 on:** March 25, 2025, 02:34:37 PM »

Oh, Ginny! I was so sorry to read your news. Hugs.

DR LAURA congratulations on your escape from Indiana.

DR FREDDIE at almost $1000 a ticket - how could a profit not be guaranteed?

I hope that author of OTHELLO was able to negotiate a profit percentage, too.

The Palace of Versailles was most excellent. We had started the day with a lunch at a cafe that is all pink, its interior filled with pink flowers, each table dedicated to a famed romantic pair. Ours was Edith Piaf and Jacques Pills. Anyway then we took a cab out to the palace and nearly missed our tour. But we caught up and enjoyed the apartments of the palace, the hall of mirrors, the gardens, then a nice ride back to our spot in the city.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #110 on:** March 25, 2025, 04:23:16 PM »

Our tour guide was a most enlightening and amusing fellow.

Now it is your tomorrow.

I will take your thoughts to heart, Freddie, and start polishing up some old plays.

For short trips (even up to two weeks) we don't check a bag. It is harder when you need to wear nice clothes or have to pack heavier, warmer clothes.

Thanks to a cancellation I finally saw my primary for my yearly check. He has ordered an inhaler for my chronic covid cough.

It’s been 45 years since I was at Versailles. Glad you enjoyed it, Rodzinski.
