Something About Nothing ... #12

Hi all - not been here for a few days as had a busy few days for hubs birthday. Barbecue with the family Saturday afternoon and hubs son and girlfriend even put in a visit so that was good as we don't see much of them.
Then Sunday early I took him on the surprise trip to stay at a country hotel and spa not far away. I think it's done him good to have the break though we are both very tired this evening - perhaps too relaxed!
 
It's rumbling out now. Know how I know a storm is coming? Our Great Dane/St Bernard mix suddenly becomes a frantic, panting, fur blowing lap puppy. 93*/ feels like 108* .... blah

sounds like my sister's dog, he goes crazy and has to find a closet or anywhere and screams like he's being killed. I warned her round two is coming tonight.

What a nice birthday for DH. Relaxing is always good. Went for a walk at lunchtime. Too sweaty. Had to come into the air conditioning. I'm ready for a nap. LOL

Sounds lovely........BBQ and family visit, then Spa Visit........my kind of weekend! I just mentioned the other day I hadn't done a spa visit for a while........my friend that passed away was the one I went with most often.......although I'm sure I won't be stuck for someone to go with for a day trip or longer.
 


Why is it I only get busy and have to run around when it's H-O-T? You know it's bad when u don't want to get out of the car's AC

Is the new HP book a book or screenplay? Not sure whether to order it or not?

Tink no idea how you survive that humid heat in garden center.

Middle DS's BD is Wednesday, today only day he doesn't work the 2nd job so it's happy BD dinner of crab legs, stir fried steak/lomein noodles & garden fresh cucumber/tom salad. Cheated & got a big choc chip cooked lol

:wave2:

I'm here...I've been doing some trip planning, I was considering doing MNSSHP on either 9/20 or 25 depending on whether I could get the coveted BOG dinner reservations. Well I'm happy to report that after many years of trying...I got a pre-party adr :woohoo:the only problem is that it's on an HHN night. Am I crazy for considering doing both in one night?

That's a lot. Do you do the website that alerts when an ADR pops up. Another of those you can mention it things I believe?

Have fun when you do go........my treadmill is rather shamefully needing a good dust before I get back on it......lol......


Washing is in.......rain is chucking it down now. Looks like thunder maybe.

Mine gets used every day, just not by me:)

i'm booked at a value at the motherland on my fall trip and was lucky enough to get a discount on the room.

can you believe that the base rate for a value is $145. + tax.

All Stars has really gone up since last year...


so when i read about peeps complaining about a deluxe room at the darkside for $175, makes me not understand why would anyone complain about that price

Remember when anything over $60 a night was 'a lot'.

I remember staying value 9 years ago and it was under $100/night.

You can still get those prices, I'm paying under $400 for nights @ AS mid August.

Robo as long as there is life, the coffee will be on and ready when I am out of bed

Have a Bunn coffee maker and clear water turns black within 3 minutes

I read Bunn wrong, that's all I'm sayin lol

Thanks Mac. Yeah, I was gonna say just google it. Sorry.

The Voldemort agency lol
 
Keisha.........crab legs, steak and noodles!!!! You're definitely cooking on my birthday.........you're hired :D

Starting to watch Die Hard 2 for some reason........always think of that as a Christmas movie.........

I'm a little peckish surprisingly, and don't want to eat anything........trying not to think about the Parma ham, different chorizos and cheeses in fridge..........:sad2:

Water is good.......isn't it?
 

Beautiful blue eyed Nana


She never leaves her ball behind


Puppy approved ice cream

Beautiful!!!! What a gorgeous girl.......

So, she's a Great Dane mix with St Bernard?? Never seen one of those ever......love both those breeds.......gorgeous eyes!! She looks so affectionate :cloud9:

Aww thanks for posting her pic........yes I can see she would be ultra hot in this weather and of course if she wants to sit on you........lol........

She is a lovebug that's for sure. She's so huge, but the most gentle girl ever.
 
Well, lucky me, within a mile, some large raindrops started to fall on my windshield, yep, a very rainy ride home, but I am not sure what was worse, the increasing amount of rain or the large amount of steam coming off the road. And joy, more to come, including possible 50 to 60 mph winds. Not raining as much at home. But, it does look like more is coming. We will hunker down, and watch a movie. Either that or annoy my DS and put The Batchelorette on. :P

Think soup and grilled cheese. AC at home is working nicely.

Keisha, you can cook for me any day too!

And beautiful dog Sharky. Love the blue eyes. I am a softy for large dog breeds. While I loved my boxer, I still miss my labs. Yes, my 85 pound male lab was my lap dog. He was a gentle lover of anyone who paid attention to him.
 
Remember when anything over $60 a night was 'a lot'.

I can top that. There has literally not been any CM discounts open for any of the values since May. Or any discounts open. At all. I think there was a deluxe available for a bit. I looked for one night at Disney during my trip so I could leave on Tues with a cheaper flight, and the cheapest I could find is one night at Coronado for $133. Like, really?
 
Yes keisha, I did use the other site that may or may not be named but the adr disappeared before I could get it. I just lucked out after trying numerous times. I still think it's funny that it says congratulations when you get it. Maybe it says that for all the adrs and I haven't noticed.

Sharky...what a beauty Nana is, I used to have a German shepherd named Buddy who was terrified of storms...he would jump on the bed in the middle of the night if he heard a rumble of thunder, usually right on top of me and dig his claws in until it was over...not fun. I finally got something from the vet to calm him down but it took 30 minutes to kick in which didn't help during our pop-up storms.

Time to fire up the grill...hot dogs, burgers and grilled chicken tonight.
 
I remember getting POP and free dining with regular meal deal for $110 a night, including tickets for a preferred room for me, a junior kid, and child kid. That was awesome. But, my kids refuse to stay there again. Oh well. We did a split stay with the Yacht Club and Wilderness Lodge, they preferred the WL. I thought they would like stormalong bay pool, but they were more into the style of the hotel. But neither want to visit the motherland any time soon. Universal, they still want to visit, as well as the Busch parks.

So far, a large line of storms, including hail, is traveling 50 mph heading east, just annoying those north of us. Just overcast and muggy as all now. After chicken noodle and BLT grilled cheeses, all are stuffed. Soon, will be looking for something sweet. I think DD made mashed or mac and cheese, as she did not want a sandwich. Both enjoyed the tomatoes we bought from a roadside stand on the way home from the games yesterday. Just picked earlier that morning the seller said. Lush.
 
Line of storms have drifted south, so man that was a huge flash. We are rocking and rolling with small hail. Up, that huge flash hit something. Fire whistle just sounded. Hunkering down for sure. On weather map, we are red and pink. Stay safe all in the storms way.
