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

[schumigirl]

After a very rainy morning, steak on the grill. Cool day, only in the 70's.

:

Lynne..........hope today was better weather wise for you.......

taking break before I need to marinate my 'shrooms for dinner.

Ok, I surrender, I want to retire to Florida lol. we are land-locked beach bums at heart, often drive to Lake Erie 2+ hrs away. If we squint hard, can pretending we're beaching it

even in the winter we can't stay away from the water, yes that is ice

Spectacular pic...........I love living next to the water too........even though I can't actually swim ............hope the food was good today

Wha....????

I don't think I could ever grow tired of the beach. The sand... sounds and smells... ahhhhh bliss

Yep we live 5 minutes from the sea and we walk on the beach a lot.......not as nice as the beach we used to live near on the other side of the country though......we're on the cooler East coast of the Uk........I miss the West coast......much warmer.......but I've been lucky to always have the ocean on my doorstep.



Quiet Sunday today.......slept late.......watched the GP...........made dinner........spoke to my friend who was burgled.......she's doing better, but very angry. They found one of the burglars......he was wearing her husbands Tag watch.........he must have liked it and not got rid of it But she felt better after we chatted.........

Hope everyone's doing ok

Bumping us up top again..............

We are being so spoiled by this glorious weather..........so hot I had to come inside for a while.......glad I have nothing much to do this week

I think we have all our trip clothes that we need now.........just a few bits to pick up. Going tomorrow for a mooch round the shops in case I see something........you know.........just in case.......


Janet........how was the food yesterday.........did you get a cake after all?

 

[Lynne G]

It's Monday!

Nice day so far, mid 80's for the high. Still humid from the nasty lightning storm we had last night. Lots of trash and branches in the street, the storm also brought high winds - about 50 miles/hour. Lucky, we didn't loose trash cans or power. Our garden looks a little sad though. Need to clean up the yard later today.

T -24. I can't believe we'll be in the mummy world in less than 4 weeks.


Hope all are enjoying a good Monday.

hi schumi, hi lynne G


hope all the homies have a great week!

 

[SharkyGoddess]

Happy Monday Homies!

We had some gorgeous light shows going on over the weekend as well, with one huge crack that was as beautiful to watch as it was LOUD. I love storms, I just hate the muddy mess they leave behind in my yard and the nasty humidity. Today we have much better temps... 75 for now!

Wishing everyone a good week!

Long time no see!!
We have spent the last week in Chicago and The Mall Of America.
My son got to plan this trip.... and of course he chose shopping! He loves to videotape escalators and elevators, and let me tell you--- there's no shortage of them at the MOA!!

My souvenir from the trip? A cold. A yucky, mucky, sore-throat-sneezing-coughing cold. Thank you Mall Of America!

And now... the remaining two weeks before school starts.... we rest and start planning for a new year. My daughter will be a senior (in public school) and I homeschool my son... he's 14 and I will be buying his curriculum next week.

Hope you all are well!!! Here in Kentucky, the weather is unbelievable for this time of year!! 72 is our high today, unheard of!! So crisp and nice and pretty! The sun is shining and the sky is clear!

Love the Hitchcock image ........ouch on the knife attack..........

Wow......Elton and Billy Joel........there must be a story to that

I can`t pick one........I mainly love his 80`s stuff.......Nikita, Kiss the Bride, Sacrifice and Blue Eyes.....but my favourite I think is ......Don`t let the Sun Go down..........although I do prefer Gorgeous George Michael singing it

Been listening to REO Speedwagon today in the car......Heard it from a friend...who.....

Heluvsme.........LOVE the sound of The Mall of America.......shame about the cold though......hope you feel better soon



I went out with a list today.........and got one thing! Shops are getting the winter clothes in........NO!!!! Far too early for winter coats!!

And some of the greetings card stores have cleared space on their shelves..............that can only mean one thing............

............................................just NO!

Hope everyone`s good

Sharky needs a tag!!!!

 

[Heluvsme]

SharkyGoddess.....Kentucky neighbor, hi! I hope you aren't near Lexington, where the high winds and tornadoes hit a couple nights ago! And if you are, I hope there was no damage.

Are you a homeschooler as well?

Kstar- small kids seem to pick up every bug, helps build their immunity. everything goes into their mouths, I still cringe when I have to take GD for checkups and see all the toys in pediatrician's office.

I had thought it was a reaction to the Chicken Pox he had received two weeks before. But as soon as the doctor looked in his mouth, she knew it! I'm certainly not a germaphobe....but I felt so bad when he got all blistery!

Poor little Chris. Yep, years ago, my younger brother got a skin rash, impetigo, when he was very young, that he got from swimming in our township pool. That's the issue with public pools, you risk sharing stuff you'd rather not have. I hope Chris had fun anyway.

Oh, and my Christopher was happy you call your son Chris. Ever since he learned to write his name, he complained to me that I gave him too long a name to write. So, to this day, he's also Chris.

Have fun in the mountains. My DD had a tournament up there last year, and most of us parents were enjoying the scenery of where the fields were. I like going there when the weather's not bad. I think only chance of storms in the evening. The weather's been nice up there lately.

Thanks Lynne! He is getting back to his regular self and should be back in the pool this week. PA was great...weather turned out to be really nice.

KFish.......poor little mite.....can`t be pleasant.......enjoy poconos I have to go look that up.....only ever heard Rachel and Paolo from friends mention it But then I thought Sheboygan was a made up place till very recently.

Schumi - The Poconos are a pretty piece of mountain range in Pennsylvania. Air is very clean and clear, very pretty in the fall...lots of foliage....and just a nice little escape from the hustle and bustle of New York.

 

[schumigirl]

Yep KFish.............I looked it up on inter web when I saw your post, and yes it looks absolutely beautiful........they have several webcams you can see.

Glad the little one is getting better

 

[keishashadow]

webcams, drones, lots of pictures taken these days without consent. Did you all see the video of the drone buzzing the seattle space needle?

messrs john & joel did a tour together back in the dark ages Pretty cool, did their own thing then some dueling piano stuff. Believe I saw GunsNRoses the same year.
aw, it's a horrible feeling to see loved ones miserable
