  1. Old white woman is late to the party, but has enjoyed catching up. So happy you are experiencing star class!
  2. Congrats on retirement! My hubby retired the end of December. I suggested we split household duties, or he finds a part time job. That motivated him to secure an awesome part time job, that will require us traveling to different places. The job starts in February. Since he is not working right now, and I had a stomach bug, I sent him grocery shopping before the big storm is due to hit. I gave him a list and told him how the grocery store was laid out. The man has an aerospace engineering degree from West Point, so he is not bat ass stupid. He faced time me as soon as he entered the store. Seriously! Drove me nuts, with questions like: I don’t see the tomato sauce, while pointing the camera at the tomato sauce. I’m like hubby, look at all the men shopping, you look as smart as they do! I know hubby is playing a game with me….act stupid and I’ll never have him shop again. My motto is: Paycheck or grocery shopping, his choice!
  3. Old white woman is late to the party, but has enjoyed catching up on the blog. Gotta say I love the picture of the two looking in the mirror. Your hubby is looking really good. I can say that, because I’m old. It’s just too bad I don’t know how to do the flow rider, just saying.
  4. Oh my, thought the old white woman, when she visited her Carnival Celebration page. Carnival is trying to swoon me over from royal by offering me a free room and $1,000 free play. I’m skeptical already about Carnival, but this new group on our sailing has about done me in! It’s a pineapple group and we can choose to go all in, or play it a bit soft!
  5. You “ain’t” cheap….you smart!
  6. The amazing thing is I usually get balcony room offers, when my certificate says interior. Somehow, carnival picked me up with a free balcony, two hundred onboard credit,free drinks in casino, and get this, $1000 free casino money.
  7. I believe in tipping, but you lost me at tipping someone to give me “my money”. Pretty soon we are going to feel obligated to tip an employee who goes that extra mile by saying, ‘Have a nice day’.
  8. I’m prime, but consider myself low prime. Usually, I leave a cruise with 2500 to 3,000 points. I have two free balcony rooms booked, and could have several more with all the offers I receive. Somehow, I’m on Royal’s send an offer every single day. I don’t know how they decide who and when to send to. The key is I can’t just pick a cruise out (could get a discount) I have to pick from the list they send me. Sometimes $125 free play comes with the room.
  9. Are your 20 booked cruises thru the casino? I get an email every single day from Royal’s casino, and receive mail offers about every day. It’s unreal!
  10. This vintage goes to bed after one in the morning. It’s a good time to be in the casino because all you young people are fast asleep. Lots of machines are open. Looks like your cruise is off to a great start.
  11. How does the point count work at the card table? How do they keep count on what you have exactly spent?
  12. So, how did you do, with the balancing,, not the drinking?
  13. I’ll be 68 in October and definitely do and say some “old lady” stuff. My daughter was talking about a 401k, and Im thinking who could run a 401K….heck, I can barely run to my mailbox. I still don’t know how to call for an Uber. I just mastered turning my TV from regular to Netflix. I can’t remember my passwords, for even this site, so I just stay logged onto the site as well as many others. Sometimes I get kicked off, so have to find the password that is written down somewhere, but have a hard time remembering where that somewhere is. I have whiskers growing just above my lip, and forget that I do, until I look into my magnifying mirror. All above is true with the exception of the 401K. On the flip side, I work out with weights at the gym, and walk a few miles everyday. Here’s your vintage test: stand on just your left leg (right leg bent at knee) cross arms across your chest…so far easy, right….but now close your eyes. Stand like that with eyes closed. If you are not a vintage you should easily be able to do it for 30 seconds or more. I’m a vintage.
  14. Lesson your son has obviously learned…..pick your friends carefully. Spend your time looking for people with suite cards. Star class would be better, and easier to find, as those people (me included) are always whipping that card out. Once you spot one, zoom in and become their BFF. That newly formed friendship could come with some awesome free perks!
  15. Exactly how old before one becomes a vintage? Asking for a friend.
  16. I’m going to book the MJ brunch for our cruise this January with the idea that my ass is going to knock over table lamps on the way back to the room!
  17. All the pictures at MJ (not MJ the genie but the Mason Jar) looked like desserts. My kind of brunch….did you feel ok after eating all that?
  18. I think I should slow down my reading! Thanks.
  19. MJ is moving to the Allure? He was our best genie ever!
  20. Old white woman has booked the same cruise in January. It’s a free guarantee balcony thru the casino. Have one booked on the utopia (balcony room) right after for four nights thru the casino too. Just hubby and I will be going so the rooms should be fine. My play “close to what the room” would of cost works well for me. I do have a genie cruise in 2026. Please let me know about the Mason Jar, as I’m thinking about booking brunch there! I’ll be following.
  21. I just booked a carnival offer. I’ve only cruised with them a couple of times, so surprised to get a casino offer from them. It was too good to past up. It’s tied to some famous casino guy. I got a free balcony, free drinks in casino for two people, and a $1,000 free play in casino. We own carnival stock, so $100 to spend onboard. It’s on the Carnival Celebration ship. I’m not a fan of carnival or their food.
  22. I have a genetic hearing lost, so totally need sub titles too! It’s a game changer for me.
  23. Love hearing someone “won” in the casino. Table or slots?
