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

[Bluer101]

Just doing a quick flyby again. Been very busy at work and home. Plus my back is giving me problems now. Just keep moving forward.

Hi to everyone, is it October yet?

But we are going to se Nelly in 4 weeks at US. DS wants to see him, me too.

 

[Heluvsme]

We had some rockin' thunderstorms last night!! The dogs (scaredy cats!) were in bed with us terrified. Huh. They are the biggest chickens ever!

keishashadow, thank you for the nice compliment! She had a great time at prom! The little spaghetti straps I sewed on for her... busted about an hour into it and she ripped them off. I had a feeling that would happen.

So, my littlest little has had a tummy bug. It's strange though, he was pukey on Saturday, then nothing happened all day Sunday, nor all day Monday, then overnight Monday into Tuesday he got sick again. I've never seen that much time pass in-between. Yesterday he didn't feel good but he never actually got sick. This is strange for my kiddo.... neither one of them has ever been a "tummy bug" kinda kid. I think they've both only thrown up like twice in their lives before, and they're almost 14 and almost 17!

Not fun. And homeschooling is taking a little break while he's sick, so hopefully today is better so we can get back on track.

Hope everyone's week is good! Happy hump-day!!

 

[keishashadow]

humpty hump, i'll drink (another cup of java) to that! Can't seem to get it in gear today despite having a full schedule.

heluvsme - spring/summer bugs are the worst, hope kiddo regroups soon

bluer - careful with ur back bustin' a move to nelly

 

[macraven]

it's hump day already ??????


wow.

my days are blending together.


when i can, i'll be back and do a quick "hi ya" to all the homies i have missed the past two weeks here.

had spitting snow yesterday but it didn't last.
some april fools day, eh....


does anyone know which airport in florida is closest to Ocala?

 

[Kogo Shuko]

*pokes my head in*

I hope everyone is doing well. And I hope spring is beginning to show up on everyone's doorsteps.

We had about ten centimeters of snow just DROP on us over night Saturday/Sunday, but since then the weather has been a bit warmer and sunnier. So the snow is melting, finally.

I hear birds chirping in the morning. I'm no longer wearing my toque.

But yesterday I got a real treat: I saw a Snowy Owl... right here in the big city!! It was a really cool thing to see. But we were driving, so I only got to look at it for a few seconds.

I have a week until my planned vacation to Houston! We've got so much planned, including trips to the zoo, two museums, NASA, horseback riding, and a day trip out to the beach. And we've also been told of a 35 acre flea market that has a midway.

All this plus the wedding we're attending.

Is it Tuesday yet??? lol

does anyone know which airport in florida is closest to Ocala?

I could be WAY wrong, but I'm leaning toward Orlando.

Ocala isn't that far from Orlando, perhaps an hour, an hour and a half at most.

My friend in Florida (the Carol you met) lives about a half hour from Ocala, and it always makes sense to fly into Orlando, if that helps.

 

[Lynne G]

Mac, I think the closest is Gainesville Regional, but even that's a bit away. My friend that lives near there usually uses Tampa or Orlando or Olando-Sanford. She likes Orlando the most since the highway to get there (the toll road) is easy to use and about an hour drive's from, and the prices are better.

It is Wednesday, and we have rain again, with snow to be later this week. I am so over with cold weather. So, happy Hump day all!

Bluer, hope your back is better when you go to the concert. Have to be able to move with the music!

Heluvsme, sorry to hear about little one having a bug. I hope feeling better soon.

Off to drink another cup of tea. It's cool and damp with it still raining.

 

[schumigirl]

Still cool here.......fog slowly clearing.......then it comes back!

=)

snow is melted but ground is saturated. Went out to rake up some left over leaves and sunk up to my ankles. Way too wet to plant here, may get our 1st tomatoes by the time we leave for HHN at this rate.

We're doing a movie marathon again tomorrow. As a perk DIL's employer buys out local complex from 8 am to 6 pm once a year for family. Planning on seeing new capt America and noah, might sneak in mr Peabody too lol.

what's everybody else doing this weekend?

 

[Cielei]

Can someone please tell me where I can find someone to make winter go away - pretty please. This is a little much for this southern girl. We got 9.5 inches of snow last night. We had finally gotten to the point where we could actually see the ground - Mother Nature fixed that! I haven't caught up too much and I need to! I did see where a couple of others booked the Star Wars dinner like me! I think the boys will love it. Anyone else there on may 19?

Birthday, making birthday party happen, visitors from out of town, spring break and more hours at work make for one busy momma. Hope everyone is doing well and has a great weekend!

i did a run to Hardy's to get burgers for dinner tonight.

none of it stuck but it gives me the willys just watching it happen......again....

 

[schumigirl]

It was lush.......nicest takeout we've had for a while........did set you a plate

schumigirl You have tuned into the Icelandic weather we are having rain also

I hope yours has cleared now.......we have a lovely morning here now that miserable fog has finally cleared......I can see the sea again!

Will you have the midnight sun soon in Iceland miss mikki? Something I want to see one day along with the Northern Lights......will have to plan 2 trips for that. A friend went to Norway to see them, said it was spectacular!



First time today I've managed to hang out my washing this year........it's kinda warm and breezy so it all dried in no time Although it's nearly lunchtime and starting to dull down a bit.......typical.

Watching free practice and qualifying for Grand Prix today.......and more ironing

Hope everyone has a great weekend

 

[schumigirl]

Can`t believe the weekend is nearly over again!

Had spicy Chinese chicken for dinner tonight....stir fried with noodles......was nice. Having mini pavlovas with no calorie cream for dessert

Gorgeous day apart from 2 cloudbursts of hail which both cleared in minutes........very weird.
