That was one of the companies I was looking at. Thanks for the info. :)
I bought a one year policy once through Allianz: Allianz Travel Insurance. It was recommended by a friend who was also a travel agent and had purchased it for himself.

Good morning! By now Liz is almost to Florida and Peps is enjoying a morning at home.
Blissfully quiet here. BFF was leaving for work when I got up. I had my tea on the porch, but it's actually a *****illy, so I'm finishing the paper inside. But while I was out there, a few little finches blessed me with a visit to the birdbaths. I especially love the yellow finches, but all of them are charming.
I'm dressed to go work out, which I will do shortly. This evening DH and I are going to a baseball game: Minnesota Saints. They play in St. Paul. It's U of M alumni night, for what it's worth. I don't have a Gophers t shirt, just one hoodie representing my alma mater. Not sure if I care enough to go buy a t shirt today. DH can rep for us with his Minnesota Gophers polo shirt.
Irish Fair on Saturday. We might check that out.
I'm sure hoping nephew is moving into his condo this weekend. He's sleeping in my office/closet/guest room. I need to start prepping for my trip pretty soon. To do that, I really need to be able to go through my clothes, and lay things out on the bed to get a visual on what to bring. I need to pack for potentially 2 climates: I anticipate sweaters and layers for Scotland, but back in Massachusetts in September, the weather could be anything, hot, cool, rainy, sunny so I'll need some light weight clothes too.
Has anybody bought medical insurance for overseas? I'm looking at a few policies, and they sound reliable, but it's always a bit of a gamble. I could purchase through Delta, but I'm hoping to find something for future trips too.
116.4 but we leave for Florida today. Likely more eating there! DH weighed today and won't disclose the results because they must be up. He has been snacking a lot so I can't say I am surprised. He is adamant that he doesn't need help but he can't stay out of the snacks when he tries to maintain. I understand it completely because that was always me in the past.
We leave around noon today and in the meantime sheets and towels have to be done. Other housecleaning was completed yesterday. I will pack my personal toiletries up and stow them in a plastic crate so they won't be in the way of any company DSD and DBIL may have at the house while we are gone. They arrive here later today.
A Florida friend offered to pick us up at the airport which saves us from having to get an Uber. Very nice of them! We should arrive there by 7 if there aren't any thunderstorms. This is the time of year for them but apparently our part of Florida has been very dry this year so who knows? Hopefully the drought doesn't break while we are there... Though they need the rain.
Welcome home Peps! Have a thoughtful Thursday!

The zucchini bake sounds tasty and healthy. Maybe it will grow on DH?
Weird that your neighbors constantly remodel though I have seen that especially when one spouse is in the remodeling business. Though when that is the case it always seems like everything is half done all the time. It would drive me crazy to live that way. Hence I prefer that that type of work get done when I am not there.

You have been working hard! I bet your shoulders are going to feel it tomorrow.
Funny remark but not. It felt cloudy here yesterday but it was all the smoke haze. It is supposed to clear here after today but we will be out of it in Florida by then.

I have the same issues of income bracket in Florida. In Massachusetts we are on par more or less with our friends. Some have more, some less, but not a broad spread. In Florida most of the people in our community have scads of money either via very high level jobs in their past, family money or both (though often it seems to be the latter). I know they don't care but sometimes our one car seems very small as does our condo. Even though we love it. I know they definitely don't care but...
Enjoy the peace! I look forward to times when we have company but we are always happy for the quiet after they leave.
