Something About Nothing ... #12

[Lynne G]

Such a good mom, Patty. Glad to see they are settling down in Ft. L. FLA residents now, perks for them. Hope Kyle's flight comes in on time.

Oh you too can have weather guys like me: Periods of heavy downpours again, this afternoon into evening, and high is 89. This kind of weather pattern makes us look like Florida, with heavy rain, then clear skies. Severe flooding in the middle of our state, as Hershey Park is closed again today. The park is flooded, with the parking lot, and a restaurant under water. Kids were seen riding trash cans in the water, to get out of the park. News guy following that weather report, with a laugh said, new kid's ride, trash can floating. Laughs, then the news of day.

Ah, nothing like a Thursday thirst to make you want to drink. Mac's been enjoying a night cap, Robo, Tink, CK, and all those coffee drinking homies, and tea drinkers, like me. Drink up, it's Thursday.





and a hehe,

 

[Lynne G]

See, some are ready for Thursday.

 

[pattyw]

You find the best pictures, Lynne!!

Hope you see sun soon!!Hope Hershey Park is ok! It's a lovely place!

We're supposed to dry out by tomorrow here! Temps are back to our normal- high 70s. I kinda liked the 90s- made for great pool days!!

 

[keishashadow]

So foggy earlier this morn yet idjits still driving Ike mad ugh

Keisha, How long you staying after arriving on the 15th of August? We fly out night of the 21st until 31st.

A quickie if spirit shows up we leave on late flight the 20th

I can always count on Janet to tell it like is is

Lol

I enjoy her wit

Half tho it may be

Ended up going to Logan’s for dinner

Nothing caught my eye on the menu so got a burger/fries and Caesar salad.

Pushed the food around and ate half of it
Watch me be hungry at 10 tonight

Wasn’t all that great but it beats cooking dinner


Had to be home at 8 so I could watch the planes in the sky
Hope Schumi saw me ...

Always wanted to try Logan’s none here. Glad we did work in Miller’s ale and sweet tomatoes years ago during a trip. Yummy and cheap too bad not up in our area, would be regulars

Sounds good! You're getting there!



Aww! I wouldn't mind a hen that isn't into laying eggs anymore! I prefer egg substitute!



Although it HAS been many years since I've heard that song and it is fitting!

We could just jump to passing a wine bottle around!

Or go with 99 bottles of beer in the wall

Another run south? Should that do it for a bit?

wine, rum or Knob Creek...
View attachment 339532 Nightly cuddle session. Who needs a cat?

Cute. Not a whiskey gal but knob creek cocktail was one featured in the trader sams F&w event (RIP). It was tasty and went down smooth but could tell after I drank it that it’d hit hard later lol.

So much fun but they shoved way too many full size high test drinks at you in a relatively short period of time. No wonder the event disappeared lol there’s buzzed then there’s full on tanked

Ok I just had a flashback to school field trips where we sang 100 bottles of beer on the bus! Wow- that was a looooooong time ago!

Nope- have one last road trip from Orlando to bring Troy home in August!

Robo- glad hubby is doing well and I REALLY need to get into shape for the fall trip!!

Good Morning!

Very exciting!!

 

[Lynne G]

Woot, sorry I'll miss ya in August, Keisha, but save some fun for me. See ya in October, hopefully. No fog for us, just a very gray sky, and damp feeling outside, and in.

Patty, glad to hear the rain is moving out. Yeah, we like Hershey Park. It's about a 2 and 1/2 hour car ride away, though have family a stone's throw away, so we go every so often.

Tree is sad looking, no leaves upside down, just droopy from all the rain, and a gray sky. Oh well, no wind chill here, though a climb up the humidity scale is more routine this time of year. Sweater on, and more tea needed.

YaY, will meet up with Robo, again this year. Almost same times, though 1 to 12 for me, with mouse 1 to 4. Is Dsis coming too? Was very nice to meet her as well. So happy to hear your DH is feeling better, and you're in strength building mode. Sending mummy dust that you'll be in good shape by the time you arrive.

Good luck with your lecture today CK, and will send sunny thoughts so no rain for you.

Patty, my dates are October 1 to 4 with the mouse, and 4 to 12 with Harry.

Talk of cocktails.....





Closing time - - - As this version of the SANS thread comes to an end, remember that every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end. I hope Mac is feeling good, and ready to open our new home. I know to put my request in order now, balcony room, with daily tea service, and a view that never has snow.

 

[pattyw]

Lynne- Thx- I edited my post with your dates!

Those drinks look yummy!

 

[macraven]

She is just so cute!!! Yep- most cats won't cuddle! My Smokey is a cuddler- but he's the only one!

[/QUOT

I have just the opposite.

Whenever I sit down, both cats jump into my lap.
They constantly fight over who sits on the lap and who sits across my knees.

And they like to hide under my bed.....when the lights are out, they sneak into my bed and ly on top of me.

No wonder I have sleep issues.

Had to ban my brood years ago when the boys were born. I usually had at least one kid in bed with us- couldn't have cats, too! Yeah- I'm not a great sleeper either! (i.e old age and snoring hubby!)

 

[macraven]

I always read that when you have a kid sleep with you in bed, you usually only have one kid.

Well, not in my case.....

Same here! It got better when I got bunk beds so they could sleep in the same room!

Going out for lasagna night at our local Italian restaurant- $6.99 for a huge plate of homemade lasagna! YUM!

 

[Lynne G]

That does some lush Patty, and very reasonable.

Think we are doing Jewish deli. Large plates, and good food. Always buy a slice of cheesecake to go, talk about lush.

Hope all have or had a good meal for dinner homies.

Learned our lesson after our 2 dogs, last dog got no bed privileges. Kids rarely were in our bed, and if they did, carried back to theirs.

 

[bobbie68]

Just stopping by to say ... Busy day with the teens and thought I would have time to catch up but hubby worked late so I got dinner duty. Taco night with tofu it is. Off to finish dinner than the teens want to finish the anime so I will indulge. Tomorrow is another busy day at 6 flags up and out the early. We hit the water park first, less crowds. What's nice is we have a dining plan so we eat up there and I have the night off from cooking. Any night off from cooking is a treat!

I hope everyone is doing well and having a good week. I quickly caught the list of people going soon and I so wish I could be on that list for a Dis meet. It sounds like so much fun! Thanks pattyw for that.

Have a great night my sans family

WLV 9/29 -

RPH 10/4 - 10/7

Annoyed, today didn’t catch APH rates till 3 pmishdidn’t get notification re rate thread. Had PBH in my cart not once but twice & it disappeared. Not even an APH rate, just seasonal. Will be keeping a hawk eye on that.

Others have advised me they had issues with not seeing available rates on apple products. Could be, but I didn’t see anything different when checking on desktop or if in private mode. Did have the reservation disappear X2 as I was submitting CC info online though.

 

[tink1957]

Add me to the list for a meetup we are at Universal 9/18 - 25 and WDW 9/25 - 27.
Wish we were staying later since it looks like I'll miss Robo, Lynne and keisha again

Thanks for the list patty. Glad Kyle is getting settled into his new place and yay for a nice visit before he leaves.

Made chicken nachos for dinner tonight, easy peasy with rotisserie chicken.

I had some other stuff written out but I seem to have lost it looking between pages...too tired to remember what I wrote.

Have a wonderful night and sweet dreams everyone

I looked and saw that ap was good for a few of my dates at Rpr
But, I am better staying with smsm for my nights with a 35% discount.
Need to have 7 nights or more to keep the smsm rate.
Still looking for a room to add one night

Been on the phone with the motherland reservations.
(I always lose at least one hour of my life when working with reservations at disney)

Found a better rate with ddp package and switched to that so I changed hotels.
Since I already have the tickets in my account, did not have to rebook with at least a 2 day ticket pass.

I'll keep watch for you dammit janet in case I see anything pop up that is a deal for your dates.

 

[Lynne G]

Beached whales, with 2 giant clam shells filled with food, and a half pound of coleslaw — all left over from our meals, and a loving large piece of cheesecake also toted home, waiting for tea later tonight or tomorrow morning. Always good food there.

Sorry to miss ya too Tink. I am thinking of last week of September with the mouse next year, then first week with RPR. RPR already reserved.

Keisha, yeah, when I booked RPR next year, it disappeared from my account. When I got my cc card statement, they did charge me the one night. A call to the hotel got me two emails, conformation of the next year booking, and this year’s one, and that one, the guy helping me, seemed somewhat annoyed that he could not see my rate (well yeah, as booked with a TA, since I could not, over 12 months before, get any discounted (SMSM) rate, and the rates just kept getting higher). He said they were using new confirmation numbers, and on a new system. Whether he was full of bull or not, don’t know. Either way, happy to know both reservations are on RPR’s books. The only one I see in my account is my PBR for next month. That I did get a SMSM rate, never saw a lower AP rate, and now not even the room selection I have is now available. Glad I have the express passes.
