Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[TammyLynn33]

I am so sorry to hear that. Everyone is skittish these days. I think you are in my area (I could be wrong) and the case number is so low, as you mentioned. Maybe the family will have a second thought and back down.
Hugs to you.

I think if they aren’t comfortable now, September with class “cohorts “ of 25 and worse ventilation won’t work either . And no way would they be happy with our trip in Disney . So sadly it’s my time to move on I think .
I feel relief , the stress level of being told if you get it we will all die was simply too much the past year .
and so far ive picked up a few volunteer shifts at the community vax clinic which makes me feel better/productive ( tho won’t pay daughters braces July 22 lol)
Thanks all for your support

Sounds like a blessing in disguise.

I got a strange 10 AM bonus, I actually got two, one says it's for shopping on amazon, which is odd because although I shop on there all the time, I rarely use the portal when I do. I was expecting 10 AM for spending a certain amount at Global petfood, but it normally says the store doesn't it? Not that I don't like getting some extra miles, just trying to reconcile my spreadsheet. Strange....

So sorry to hear about your job. You should be in high demand. I know here in the Ottawa area they can't get enough nurses. Hope it isn't long before something else comes along.

I also got 10AM this morning. Not sure what it was for. I haven't shopped on the portal in forever. I'll take it though.

Shopped at Sobeys this morning for their Max A Miles week. Got a whopping 205AM. I miss the good old days when I would net 700-800AM on one of those days. Their return is something to dream for going forward.

Hugs TammtLynn33 ... much better days are ahead Hon.

I think I might be up to a Sobeys trip tomorrow.
I am going to get some chicken fit bowls and some applesauce.
It should be good for a few airmiles.
Max O Miles this time around is a Min O Miles for me.

My washer burst a hose last night so I ordered a new one from Lowes today,,, I forgot they no longer do airmiles ,,oh well at least I got some credit card rewards.
P.S there seems to be a covid shortage of appliances ,,, I checked at many places and kept getting told late Aug delivery dates.
Mine should arrive tomorrow ..... fingers crossed.
Be kind to your appliances.

Quick trip back to Sobeys as the cashier only charged me for 3 applesauce instead of 4 that I bought.
Refunded me the 3 and then charged me for 4 and the 50 airmiles showed up.
Picked up a few other things I saw ,,,citronella Off candle----mosquitoes look out, white vinegar---ants take a hike, bypassed the donuts ,,,yes it was hard but still recuperating here.
and grabbed some more applesauce.
150 airmiles in total

Happy Sunday!

So I know the answer is probably no but thought I'd ask.
If I buy Gift Cards at Staples in store will I get any airmiles?
Thanks

It's July and you know me it's time to start stockpiling Gift Cards for Christmas. (Only 6 more months)... lol
It makes the total cost of Christmas so much easier for me.

O/T (off topic) Just sharing
I got a gift today.... from my youngest son
He booked the Niagara Falls Hilton Double Tree Hotel/Spa (yeah the one that gives warm delicious chocolate chip cookies when you arrive).
We are going in Oct for Thanksgiving. (2 nights)
My sons love the outdoor spa/hot tub.
We are getting a 2 bedroom suite with flexible booking rebooking if necessary.

****We’re a 10-minute walk from the Falls, Fallsview Casino, and Clifton Hill neighborhood. Our rooms and suites offer views of the city, Niagara River, or American Falls. We have a cedar sauna, fitness center, hot tub, two indoor saltwater pools, and an AVEDA spa. Enjoy our restaurant and lobby bar with Starbucks, convenient on-site self-parking, and free WiFi.***
They have In Room Dining but there are a ton of restaurants we can Uber or pick up from or Patio dine maybe.

A nice little treat to look forward to.
I know Disney will happen someday but this helps a lot till then.

Since the travel rewards site doesn’t want to have DLR tix, I made a request through a personal shopper.

I have no plans to go until they bring back a version of annual passes. But, want to get my ducks in a row.

I assume DLR tix will be available because I think some of you have bought holiday party tickets? But who knows.

That is actually really cute, and looks nice for touring the parks, just enough room to carry a few things plus a water bottle.

Yesterday was quite the day I must admit. Stocked up on exercising footwear (long overdue). Can't wait to use the bag and water bottle at Disney preferably but around here until then. I used DS AM to make the purchase

 

[TammyLynn33]

When it rains it pours.. like I’d isn’t have enough stress this week the ex wants to come up for ready “ an hour “ on DS birthday on Thursday . I’m like no he’s readjusting to camp and getting in a routine and we have plans and are even away this weekend . A little advanced notice after 11 months maybe. He actually told me “ it’s fine you are away this weekend “ thanks I’m glad after 5 years you approve.
I wonder if it’s because of testing of he tests there and does a one hour visit he can get back and use the same test both border crossings .
More than happy to plan a visit for him but like a friend said wha been clearly watching too many GMA military family reunions and wants to do this for the “moment” and his Twitterfans to say what a great dad.. one hour would be so disruptive . Who wants to see their kid for an hour only after they haven’t seen them
In almost a year ..
Covid is going to be the end of me ..
