Something About Nothing..........#11

[schumigirl]

It was faulty Janet. They`ve apologised and my blister has cleared up....thanks to Neosporin.......I bring that back from the States in bulk........better than anything we can buy OTC. Accidents happen so I`ll go back there, been going for years and I really like the girls who work in the place.

Agavegirl.......have a lovely break in the Caribbean.....sounds lovely just about now


Still blowin a hoolie outside today again.........raining just now.

At the very end of our driveway we have an area that's just shrubs and soil. Never ever had flowers and it sits on it`s own really. Yesterday I noticed that one single flower has grown in the very centre of the soil........it`s purple too. Very odd. Very pretty flower and DS said oh it had to be purple....lol.....

OK - the Wednesday camel is ready for Spring. 9 more days until Spring.

Foggy morning. At least the rain is gone until this week-end. It's starting the April showers early.

Mac, hope you are feeling better.

Keisha, hope you are feeling better too.

Cool, so time for a cup of tea.

thanks for thinking of me LynneG, i haven't seen you here the past few days so i am guessing that means you have a job and a life....

tea?? pffff
coffee will relax you


not sure what part of the country you live but checking out the eastern side, is doing better.
no heat wave but no more snow and some decent 40's and 50's now.
weekend for the long forecast lists some snow but nothing like they have been through up to now.

foggy, ick

sweet.
camel kitties

now i know it is wednesday

 

[macraven]

prettie kitties

mac u will be a very skinny Minnie soon eek must be starving! mending, even slowly, is a good thing...hang in there.

now I'm dreaming about mythos' 'old' pork dish, still miss it. so many loved it, wonder why they took it off menu?

no idea hot wax could get that 'hot' as to burn the skin? that salon needs to check their equipment, might be faulty.

uh, i wouldn't go as far as saying the word skinny in the same sentence with Mac..........lol

i remember the old pork dish and it was great.

mythos changes their menu frequently.
i wish they would bring back some of my favorites.

hope your ouchie gets better soon.
i bet it hurts like when you accidentally burn yourself when ironing.
not that i iron but i once did 20 years ago and know iron burns hurt like a mother.

Yep, a shorts day. We are so ready for warm weather, as 50 degrees now seems warm to us.

Well, working on my rental car rate as I patiently wait for SW to open flights at the end of the year. So far, have got the rental down $80. I hope it drops even more. Otherwise, not too bad a rate. I hope the flights will be reasonable too.

Got a short survey from USO, wanting to know my spring break plans. Hmmm. Is isn't too late? Though all schools/colleges around us have different times and lengths. Some are now and some are in April. We are just doing day trips as my kids only get a long week-end.

Have a good night all.

Glad to hear Schumi's burn healed. I did not know you could not get some of our standard OTC drugs as OTC ones where you live.

 

[keishashadow]

lynne my DS is on spring break now. the survey ended when I said no plans for spring break. Did I miss the blurb about name being entered into a contest? most of the colleges here call it quits the week of St Patrick's day. Good luck stalking the rental car. you know it's bad when you have memorized all the codes and coupons from the never ending search lol.

carole - glad things turned the corner quickly. It is interesting re the Neosporin availability issue. switched over to neomycin a few years back upon recommendation from dr, supposed to be gentler on skin...beats me lol I just go with the flow.

did somebody say Caribbean?

 

[macraven]

now i know what schumi wants for her birthday......
neosporin or the other one keisha stated, neomycin.

 

[macraven]

just wondering if you were at City Walk, wouldn't you still be up.
it's only 10 more minutes before the place closes down.

 

[schumigirl]

Yes it's funny what we can buy OTC in places like walmart that we may need a prescription for over here. Lansoprazole is one of them I think I brought back for my friend who has to pay every month. Loads of other things too. But neosporin is fantastic and not available to get here at all. There are burn things you can buy, but not as good as that.

Customs must giggle when they see what stuff us Brits take back by the boatload. I use Aussie shampoo, conditioner and lots of their hair products. We do get it in the UK but the US formula is better and much nicer. So I buy at least 8 of the shampoos and various selections of the other stuff to do me a year. Sometimes I am generous and give some away.........sometimes!


It's fairly mild here today, around 66f.....positively tropical! But bit misty.....can't see the sea again today.

Happy Thursday

carole do u have amazon in England? I buy majority of toiletries (including Assusie shampoo lol), laundry detergent & paper products from them. Between Prime/subscribe and save option, it's reasonable and so nice to find the box on doorstep. DH is addicted to haribro gummie bears, I buy them in bulk 5# packages, makes it easier to keep up.

 

[Bluer101]

I did the spring break survey, it was very short as I answered we are going to Universal.

Happy Thursday everyone. 2 days till the weekend.

Schumi,

That neosporine is good stuff when DW makes me use it. Lol

oh , i remember now. you are a dude and dudes never complain of pain, aches or discomforts...........

 

[marciemi]

carole do u have amazon in England?

They do and I can even use my Amazon Prime from here in the US to send things via Amazon UK to my son who's studying over there for the year!

 

[schumigirl]

Janet....I love getting parcels Do use Amazon but not an awful lot. I've never eaten a gummie bear......lol.......my niece likes to steal the stuff I bring back when she visits as she likes the American formula better too. Strange. Plus you get more than double the amount for half the price or less probably. And my DH tells me I never look for bargains.......


Won't be around for a few days.......heading up to Scotland to celebrate my mum's 80th birthday. We are having a party on Sunday with around 40 family and friends, nice meal in a beautiful restaurant and catching up with relatives. She's as fit as a fiddle for her age.....always on the go. She certainly out walked me when we went to New York last year.......I was the one with sore feet.....

Anyway........hope you all have a great weekend....catch ya soon

 

[Lynne G]

Safe travel to Scotland Schumi. Nice way to celebrate your mum's birthday.

 

[Bluer101]

oh , i remember now. you are a dude and dudes never complain of pain, aches or discomforts...........

Just stubborn like most men.

[macraven]

schumi, have a great time at the celebration and take lots of pics which you will enjoy for years to come.

marci, i knew that as you showed pics of him and his gf, so cute.

keisha, you are the master with online ordering and always come out great.

LynneE, are you finally having some spring type of weather?


i left before noon and back this afternoon.
son had surgery the day before i did and today he had to have the staples removed.
he said it didn't hurt at all.

i think that's because he is a man.
(just like bluer stated)

Hi
We're back home and to make myself feel better I booked our fall trip today. We decided to go with Cabana Bay to save $...we will probably add a night at RPR when the AP rates come out.

We had a really good trip in spite of the unexpected crowds.The beauty of going so much is we don't feel the need to ride every ride multiple times. I like enjoying the little things ...soaking up the atmosphere while sitting in the yellow chairs around Margaritaville with a beverage of choice....exploring Diagon Alley while drinking my butterbeer....etc.
We always find something new to do or a new place to dine...this time we tried Lombard's and Antojito's...both were good but the mex place was the winner.

Carole, glad to hear your burn is better...I burned my leg with a curling iron once..ouch. Tell mum happy birthday for me.

Mac...hope your mouth is on the mend...we can't have you silent for long.

Oops...I forgot to add more clothes to the wash....gotta go for now
