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

[macraven]

Well up until a few weeks I would have recommended the Hilton at Pier 60 for Clearwater but, have heard recently it's not as it was. So maybe not there. I think there's a few issues with it now.



We said the same thing the other day..........can't believe it's over half way through...........Last year ********* cards were in our stores by second week in August!!! I love December 25th much as anyone.....but that's ridiculous!

i'm trying to figure out what naughty word you wrote above......
with my limited vocabulary, i'll need a hint on the starred out word.

 

[macraven]

I like the way you think!

lol


and if you have a 2 headed nickel, you can win a lot when you call heads on the flip.....

Lol........Dec 25th.......didn't want to mention the "C" word in July...........Christmas of course.........



Just in from dinner.......it was Lush!!!

Scallops and langoustine to start then I had Venison with red wine sauce.......oh my it was gorgeous. DH had the steak and both friends had rack of lamb........I am so full. No room for dessert for me but they all ate one.......even my tiny little friend......don't know where she puts it!!!

Think I just cancelled out my five mile walk today.......never mind.

Going shopping with DS tomorrow........he is overjoyed. I need some things in town and he needs shoes and clothes..........he hates shopping about as much as I do. Fun morning!!!

 

[Lynne G]

Have fun shopping with DS Schumi. My DS only goes with me when I demand when he needs things.

@schumigirl that dinner sounds absolutely delish!!!!!! also - i checked the reviews on trip advisor for the hilton and it seems like it might just be outdated a bit. However, it does have a tiki bar on the beach - so I imagine there will not be a ton of room time.

Lol.....it was!! Have you ever been so full you're still not hungry when you wake up..........that's me this morning......very unusual for me.......

We did love the Hilton and stayed a good few nights there over the years we went. Staff were always lovely and the position on the beach was perfect. We never ate dinner in the hotel as we love Crabby Bills which is a few minutes walk away or Frenchy's Grill.

We had a suite and faced the Gulf so it was perfect. It probably is a bit outdated too.

I think Keisha stayed their recently.......when she is back on the boards she will be able to tell you how it was now as its been a few years since we went.



Looks to be a beautiful day today.........hope so. Sun is shining and feels warm even at 7am.......yay!!


And it's Wednesday........................

[BagOLaughs]

Hello everyone, hectic day.

Ummmmmm, Wednesday Camel, i'm guessing this is a thing on this thread. I approve, life is always better with camels.

Ask and ye shall receive mac...........Bluer was listening..........


Busy day........shopping this morning .....semi success with that.......and load of housework this afternoon for which it is far too hot to be doing.........but anyway, done for another few days......even ironed too!!

Did upgrade our airport room night before we fly to a suite as a surprise for DH.......think he'll be pleased

Think I deserve a nice glass of wine tonight.......weather is gorgeous out today......80s music in full swing

Have a great Wednesday.........

 

[schumigirl]

Back from another trip to dentist this morning........the infamous crown came loose again last night......called this morning and he could see me first thing thankfully.....so little sucker is cemented back in for another day....again. Looking at getting some bridge work done in the future......

Another beautiful day here again.........love this sunshine

silver dollar pancakes for lunch today and fresh salmon with salad for dinner tonight.......too hot to cook.

Happy Thursday........

That tooth just won't leave ya alone. Maybe some super glue instead?

Some more corgi pics - for both the Minion and Disney fans:

 

[Bluer101]

How cute.

 

[keishashadow]

Most folk I know enjoyed it.......especially my 31 year old niece......and it is breaking records.......I'll still watch it good or bad.........love a minion!! On DVD though...........I won't go to the cinema anymore..........im getting far too intolerant of certain things.

Yes.........S/O to miss Keisha............still being treated like a princess I'm sure .........


Went cool here again.......but humid.....think we are due a storm looking at the sky over the sea........

Spicy pork chops for dinner tonight again..........

lol I'm known as the 'empress' in some circles, something to do with my quiet, submissive personality I'm sure

finally up & at 'em. eyeballs ready to fall out & brain a pile of mush from watching so much tv. did enjoy binge watching last season's true detective. almost back in fighting form. Drs found bonus issues. Will be making the rounds of specialists over next few weeks, hoping to avoid more surgery. cynic in me terms it the 'she has great insurance, let's run with it syndrome', but assured I will be able to resolve things nicely, one way or the another. as long as it doesn't interfere with upcoming trip in October

Off my food but reading ice cream (which had been off the menu for a few years due to gallbladder issues), sushi, spicy, chicken wings & whatever else I've missed being mentioned here, is making mouth water lol. Not fan of Mexican food, never heard of that restaurant. is it in citiwalk?

cannot get over how damn cute Marci's grand pup is! great pictures. Cats, dogs, camels, it's all good.

re Clearwater Hilton, my lower leg was munched on during stay there in late June. Management swears no bed bugs, had to be sand fleas. I am very familiar with sand flea bites after a cruise stop in Honduras when I got bitten nearly 100 times as to their pattern and size, these were a bug of another color. Also, had a theft of items from poolside lounger while in the pool. On a positive note the hotel is in a very good location and, for an older hotel, nice enough but not up to Hilton standards in my opinion.

 

[Bluer101]

Janet, glad you are doing better, always good to hear from a homie.

 

[Lynne G]

Glad to hear you are on the mend Keisha! Yeah, I get that "this is not a bill" mail from my insurance company, but says what is paid and not paid. The dollar values sometimes are like what? That much?

Beautiful day so far. Rain is gone, and everything is starting to dry out. Almost cool, as we have a low humidity today. Mother Nature is not letting that coolness stay around, week-end is to be hot and humid. Ah, watching those soccer matches in the full sun is not my idea of fun. I have a change of clothes for DD when she's done, as everything needs a good wash afterward.

Marcie - very cute pups. Kids are now focused on another breed, but are willing to look at mixed breeds too. We're going to wait until the spring. Kids are worried no pups will be around. I told them breeders are year round, and the pound always has pups.

Hope all are enjoying the day, pay day Friday is on tap. Then the week-end! Wahoo!

I've been tempted on occasion to get the superglue out........it's a pest!

Welcome back Janet....................youse was missed!!

Glad you're almost back to full fitness..........empress.......hmmm. I like that......I only get Princess.....Empress sounds much more imperial........enjoy that ice cream and all things you've been missing out while you had GB.......once it's gone no looking back with food.......

If you mean Antojitos Mexican, yes it's in Citywalk.........may venture in for a cocktail this year as we are not fans of Mexican food

Marci........cute pups!!

 

[macraven]

welcome back keisha, you were missed.

that is awful getting bugged and mugged at that hotel.

i hope you spray painted the room you were in to get even....


don't worry
once you run out of insurance, the doctors will say you are healthy as a horse.

kidding aside, hope you do well in the future weeks with healing and no more boo boos to get fixed up.


marcie, cute little doggy!
