Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck This morning I called the mover. He is going to come and give me a quote on Wednesday. Then, I called the man who will remove everything else that I am not moving to Napa. He will come the day before the movers. Then, when the movers come, they...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck I agree that many Americans like the "Disney" version of other countries. They like to go to the Ballagio and Paris Hotels in Las Vegas, but many of them have never seen the real thing. Americans are the same way about...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - Sharon has not even reached Alaska, yet, and she is already complaining how cold it is! Her ship is docked today at Victoria, Canada. She did not get off the ship. She did step outside onto the outer deck and then sent me this...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - Every day I am taking out more trash bags full of things I do not want or need. Why did I collect all this? One of my daughters will be visiting here in about 12 days. She said she would help me throw things out and take them to a charity. That...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - Today, I threw out a big trash bag full of stuff. It came from just a few of the drawers I need to empty out. You are so right that most of the stuff we put in drawers ends up being things we never use! Such a waste. Today, I basically furnished...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - Sharon seems to be doing OK. She docked in Seattle today, and took an Uber to a store to buy a few things. She thought the store was very crowded, so she made it a quick trip and returned to the ship. During the next month, she is going to be...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - I'm so glad that your move has worked out. It has encouraged me to believe that my move will also work out, once I get through the next two months! I think everything is going smoothly so far, and I have hired a young man who occasionally does...

When I took my South Pacific cruise, the ship stopped first in a couple of the Hawaiian Islands. While we were on Oahu, I took a tour of Pearl Harbor. I had been to see the Arizona Memorial in the past, but not the rest of Pearl...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - Yes, if you find someone rich, then getting married is a good idea! . My sister lived with her second husband for about 10 years before they got married. Then, he got cancer in several organs (his colon, pancreas,...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - I chatted on the phone with Connie today. I told her that I think Sharon's trip is going to end badly. Either she is going to get sick or hurt and be stuck in a hospital in a foreign country, or she is going to be unhappy with the ship, or...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - Yes, I know many people who have lived together or dated for decades without being married. In fact, many people in my retirement community live together without being married. That is because women often are relying on the Social Security...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - I agree that there is no reason to get married. Oprah Winfrey has dated the same man for something like 30 years, and they never married. I see woman my age who keep getting married, and I do not understand it. Why would you get married in your...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck Yes, I thought the same thing. The hotel manager will be happy when Sharon is gone! I'm sure everything is not going to be "perfect" on the ship, like she thinks it will be. The room could be...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - I have heard that couples in Europe often do not get married. I am sure that the strict divorce laws are one of the reasons. I'm sure that is not the result the Church and governments expected when they made it so hard to get a divorce. We had...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - I think some people in the US who are Catholic still have problems getting the church to accept their divorce. Sometimes, they ask for their marriage to be annulled, but that is difficult if they have children. I confess that I do not know all...

Deborah-Diane @LadyDuck - It would be miserable to be married to someone who wanted to divorce you. I understand te viewpoint of the church, but it also forces many people to remain in terrible marriage. I'm glad I have never been through a divorce, but I understand why...
