A woman I work with had to cancel her ski trip next week. She got credit for a year but said she would rather have her $5,000 back.
My sister always gets trip insurance.
We've started doing it because of my father's fading health. Prior to that, we rolled the dice, so to speak.
I think my parents next scheduled trip is either late July or early Aug. They were going to Germany to see the Passion at Oberammergau. It is only put on every 10yrs. Even being very optimistic, I don’t think they will make the next one.
My dad turned 79 yesterday. I think my Mom said they did purchase the travel insurance. Our 8th grader is supposed to go to DC in June, that one is still up in the air.
I hope the trip happens for your parents. It was tough on my father/stepmother when they had to acknowledge that their cruising/traveling days were over. That happened in their 80s.I think my parents next scheduled trip is either late July or early Aug. They were going to Germany to see the Passion at Oberammergau. It is only put on every 10yrs. Even being very optimistic, I don’t think they will make the next one.
My parents usually come visit over Memorial Day weekend, but with my job duties, it's been pushed to mid-June. I'm hoping they can still make it.
MIL had a fall yesterday, couldn't get up, and was also exhibiting shortness of breath and a slight fever. Turns out it's "only" rhinovirus. But, she's in the hospital, and step-FIL can't even visit her.
I feel bad for couples that have weddings planned for the next couple of weeks.

Yeah - I've been seeing a lot of that recently on FB. We will likely have at least one family funeral in the upcoming days...I don't know HOW that will be handled. I'm guessing it will be a very small graveside service, with a larger memorial service later on. But she has 7 kids, 4 living siblings, and dozens of grandkids in the area...so "small" is relative (so to speak).
Apparently people are coming into local clinic and askingm to be tested because they were going to do some traveling
The dumb is not for you...it's for the people. Matter of fact, I rescind it so that you don't get a negative balance.
The Kansas governor just cancelled in-person school for the rest of the school year for K-12.
Posted in the I'm Fat thread but some cheap at home yoga if anyone wants it.

Just got back from a five mile walkabout. Too many peeps out. Lots of peeps walking and lots of kids out.
I spy:
I spy:
- One corgi
- Two peeps 'mocking at Cedar Lake. Air temp is like 43 and it's not sunny out like earlier and was not expecting to see two hammocks out already.
- One odd looking giant poodle
- No beagles, no eagles
- Ducks on ice (not skating)
Lew was going to pick up powdered milk in case we have to start baking our own bread. No joy. I didn't think people would think of that, but I guess it lasts longer than the fresh stuff in desperate times.
Wondering if I can collect unemployment on my side gig? I work 20-50 hours a week depending the week. Have been busy. Does it matter that I can’t really show a paycheck for this year yet? I mean, how far out was Labor Day?
With everybody WFH or quarantined this week. It would be an EXCELLENT mailbag weekend. GTO and pants are missing a big one.
