Oh trust me, my dear, there's a lot of things us tough guys (🤣) can't do without looking like idoits. Like cooking, dancing, crying, wearing high heels, asking for help in a store... You name it.
Everybody has his (or her) own strong suits and kryptonites. I for one am terribly afraid of heights. Being almost two meters tall, that's quite ironic, eh? 😉
Can't dance because wooden hips.
When I sing, paramedics knock on the door.
Math is black magic to me.
The list goes on and on...

digseatrain

Redline_Diesel Yes, but what would we do without each other's strong suits. The new generations will figure it out, but I think we will still, for the most part, depend on each other. BTY I really hope you don't try wearing high heels...I just don't want to fathom that. (You working on your bitch diva while wearing high heels....noooooo😖😫😩😰)

She'll get better soon. Believe in the good things in this world.
Were I live, we have a saying that roughly translates to "keep your head up, even though your neck is dirty". Fingers crossed. 🤞

Don't worry. Ain't got no legs for that.

@digseatrain
Hey digs, how's your sis going? Hope all is well. 🤞

digseatrain

Redline_Diesel Hard to tell...the hospital is so short staffed that I can't get any info. No visits allowed. And the last time I got her on her mobile, it was running out of juice and there was no one to help her find an outlet for her charger or find her room phone. Here, like I assume everywhere, the hospitals are running on fumes. It is what it is. I just keep busy playing the games...much easier than meditation. Thank you for thinking of her. She is one of millions going through this.
Edit: And I am one of billions going through this as a family member. I don't feel sorry for myself, I am a realist. "I am just a flea on the back of a dog". I read this somewhere, can't remember where but it stuck and made sense. We move on one step at a time as long as we can. 🤣 You have to laugh about it in the end.

digseatrain As one of many of your northern neighbors, I am worried about that whole situation too.

Very quiet here today on the Forum. A solemn day for our country (US). I Just wanted to let you kind people know that I brought my sister home tonight. It was confusing and messy. But I can handle it. She needs a lot of care and I am getting help with that. Still using the games to focus my mind on something else when I need an escape. Thank you PF.
Edit to add: If anyone else is having a similar situation with family or friends, please feel free to express yourself here. There are many compassionate players who will support you.

Glad you could bring your sister home. As you know, I am there, doing it, and actually wearing the T-Shirt 😉. And, I hope you don't mind me saying that, being reminded that I am not the only one, but there are many others dealing with a difficult situation like this, makes it easier to NOT feel sorry for myself all the time 😘

Good to hear.
Dad had a major heart surgery just before Christmas. Two bypasses. Went to rehab this morning. We'll see. He's harder to remove from this earth's surface than f#&%ing wallpaper from f#&%ing drywall... 😉

CynthiaF Need to reply to your earlier post again. I am now totally understanding how you feel. For me the feeling sorry for myself is coming out in anger at anyone and anything. I am really having to draw down on my old yoga memories for relaxing and breathing. And CynthiaF please vent all you need to. I can only get a visiting nurse twice a week, but everyday I have to do things I never thought I would or could do ie: clean and dress a surgery wound, flush a drain that is inserted in her belly next to said wound and empty and measure the bag attached to the drain. Plus all the meds, making her eat, etc. etc. Just typing this out is giving me stress. And Egg , I'm not sure exactly what you do, but I know you are a hero for doing it.
Edit: the hospital wanted to send her to a rehab center, but I couldn't do it. She was at one a couple years ago and it was totally disgusting. I wanted to vomit every time I went to see her. So it was my choice (or fight really) to have her come home. Plus with this new Covid outbreak, I think it would really have been a horribly death sentence.

@Egg
Now they are really testing you restrain. A SUB for sale? And a britisch one at that. Oh boy! 🤣🤣🤣

robertg2

CynthiaF A SUB

@Egg 😀 happy new year

Egg

CynthiaF Now they are really testing you restrain. A SUB for sale? And a British one at that. Oh boy! 🤣🤣

I haven't got that offer 😭

Egg

robertg2 @Egg 😀 happy new year

You buy it and I'll come round to your place to play with it 😂 No sub sale in my game...................

I'm currently composing a 10 page support ticket to PF asking why not? Plus giving several hundred reasons for a having a Submarine Event (I might also be checking the size of my nose during this Pinocchio moment)

CynthiaF

In case any of you experienced captains is interested, here are the new locations of the material destinations 😉

Graylady

CynthiaF Thanks. Will take time to get used to LOL

Wishing I could but why I have always said those that can get one need to to protect those of us that can’t. Honestly, if I could get one safely, I would.

digseatrain
Double whammy for me is I cannot wear a mask either as I am claustrophobic and start having trouble breathing when I wear one and for some odd reason a face shield is even worse.

CynthiaF
That stinks as no more 4 hour locations really makes it hard for me as 8 hours is way too long sometimes and 1 hour is way too short. Same with getting rid of coastline as that is way better than small town. It just means I will have ships sitting in the dock going nowhere more often. Or I will end up spending gems to bring some of the 8 hour ships back early on my shorter work days.

Egg
Lol I was not tagged and I just found this a bit ago. Lol I am slowly catching up and responding now.

Egg
ABBA is awesome.

CynthiaF

Graylady
Yep! That is why I am glad I started a new account a couple of months ago. Happy to be curious 😉😂

LockDog

I'm interesting at what levels and with what coefficients the unlimited will be. I have no one unlimited

CynthiaF

LockDog
We will see, my "little" account is far from maxing any location. My main account has all destinations maxed, but maybe this will change too. Only 4 more days and we will know 😅

CynthiaF

Redline_Diesel
Good for you! 😉 They might be testing our patience while they are alive, but when they are gone it is much worse.

digseatrain

Redline_Diesel Thank you. Good luck with your Dad. Glad he is a trooper. (Funny bit about the wallpaper BTW 😅). My sis used to be a trooper , but after I think it's now 6 major surgeries in the last five years she is kind of out of it. I really think it is the anesthesia that does them in. Also, many rehab centers are atrocious and do more harm than good mentally to the patient. Hope your Dad is in a good one. I had to fight tooth and nail over these places in the last few years.

LockDog

CynthiaF Progress does not stand still... Small Town and Riviera I had unlimited, but a month or 2 ago they became limited again and continue their upgrades

CynthiaF

LockDog Progress does not stand still.

Which I welcome. Just sometimes I wonder if progress for the sake of progress is really necessary 🤔
A new/changed UI with the change of the destinations and their locations is most likely necessary in order to implement new things. I am curious If they focus on minor unimportant details again (at least this is how it often looks to the "non-developer" eye lately) or on the big picture
