Was this quite literally the longest week EVER???

Lots of paperwork happening in my 7:30-3:30 job meant I needed a Disney water cup and coffee mug to make it through the day.

Then to the supper club in WI for a fish fry and old fashioned (brandy/sweet) for dinner.

Happy weekend friends! Any big plans for this weekend…we are starting to pack for our spring break trip!

Learning and growing as an agent to better assist my clients.

Tonight was more Holland America training (Caribbean, Panama Canal and Grand Voyages). Officially Platinum and planning to finish all the training this month.

Yes I’ve been a bit MIA in February…how is it that the shortest month felt soooo long. Likely has to do with that fact we have literally been fighting every icky bug know to man.

But there is a rainbow on our horizon…it’s officially cruise 🚢 month for my family. Looking forward to our trip to both private Disney islands.

Reach out if you’re even considering a cruise…I’ve been doing my research and will help you find your perfect itinerary and cruise line.

📚Book 6 of 2025📚

This one was a bit harder for me to finish…lots of thinking happening throughout. Also books about relationships hit differently now that my kids are getting older. I want to help them navigate relationships with others in ways that hopefully don’t negatively impact their mental health.

Cheers to it being almost Friday. These yummy coffees are found at Hollywood Studios (one has alcohol one does not).

With the snow yesterday and a house full of sickness we are ready for the weekend. I’m planning to live vicariously through my clients who are currently at WDW. While we are anticipating more snow in WI and needing to throughly deep clean our house this weekend.

We got some fun mail today…our cruise luggage tags for next month’s trip. Comes just as we are looking at a big snowstorm headed our way here in Wisconsin☃️

We are so excited to get on a new to us ship and our itinerary is 👩‍🍳 💋 (I spy both of Disney’s private islands)!

With all the sickness around lately it made me think of this wonderful product. While it won’t likely help with the tummy bugs going around it does help me with motion sickness.

A wonderful friend at work suggested this product to me. I was excited for my first cruise, but nervous that I would be miserable onboard. Well this device works like a charm (she had used while pregnant), it sends small shockwaves and NO it does not hurt.

So if you’re thinking cruising might not be for you due to motion sickness this might be just for you. I’ve also used it for rollercoaster rides and it seems to help.

📚Book number 5 of 2025📚

This one was fun as the setting was my home state. I’ve had an emotionally draining two weeks and this book was an easy read and just what my mind and soul needed.

🧙‍♂️This kiddo has become Harry Potter obsessed. We set a family rule that he needed to finish the books before watching the movie. 🎥

He stepped up and has been delivering for sure. Since Christmas he has finished book two and three. Today he got this Lego set from his uncle, aunt and cousin. He completed the set in just about an hour.

He is determined to complete all the books to go see the Hogwarts Castle at Universal Florida. He would love the rides and immersive experiences through out the Universal Parks.

🍪🎄I have something to admit…when we visited WDW at Christmas I finally went into and bought some Gideon’s cookies.

While I had received one before as a gift I had never entered. As you may know I’m not a sweets person (savory is the key to my heart) so never wanted to wait in the line. On busy days they do a virtual queue and we did that to reduce the wait a bit.

Due to not going into the parks during the holidays my son was bummed he would miss the Epcot cookie stroll…so we did our own with cookies from Gideon’s and Summerhouse.

Are you a Gideon’s fan?? If so what’s your favorite cookie? Mine is the coffee cake!

🚢🚢Happy plan a cruise day!🚢🚢

While I’m able to book much more than Disney Cruise Line you all know how much of a Disney fan I am. And they have some amazing deals for Disney Plus subscribers on certain itineraries sailing into early June. Reach out and we can see if any of the options work for your schedule!!

Tell me what’s holding you back from a cruise?

I was always afraid I’d feel trapped or would get motion sickness (which I’m prone to getting). Well a great friend from work suggested a motion sickness band (with electrodes) that seems to help whenever I’m feeling a bit queasy.

I’ve got lots of tip and tricks on how to best enjoy a trip on the open seas or winding rivers.

🚢I have a new lead for a 7 night Alaskan cruise….one of my bucket list trips!🚢

Starting off with a few options as client is new to cruising and was just not sure where to begin. Which brings me to my role-help her find the perfect ship to enjoy her trip with her extended family all while saying within their price range.

Quick search given the dates and price point I found multiple options on the following cruise lines….

#1 Princes Cruise line aboard the Sapphire Princess

#2 Carnival Cruise line aboard the Luminosa

#3 Royal Caribbean Cruise line aboard the Radiance of the Seas

#4 Norwegian Cruise line aboard the Jade

For those who have cruised before which would you pick and why?

For those of you new to cruising what is your “must have” on the ship.
