Something About Nothing ... #12

[schumigirl]

You wrote Saturday and I had to look at the calendar thinking, now what day is it really......

Ah, Thursday..

When you are retired, the days all blend together

They really do blend together don’t they...........I know Tom’s only been retired a year, but it’s been much longer for me.......so I’ve been in that “what the heck day is it” when I wake up for ages!!! Now Kyle keeps us right......lol........it’s fabulous!

Hi everybody

Bobbie...it's nice when your kids like to cook. Trey made chicken alfredo for my birthday dinner...it was soooooo good especially when you consider it was his first time making it. He also got a chantilly cake from publix. Danielle made a nice mango mousse for dessert a few nights ago....I'm a lucky mom for sure.

Sounds like it's raining all over in sansland...it was bad here today. Trey's friends fiance hydroplaned her car and totaled it. I feel so bad for her since she just got her license a few weeks ago. Luckily she only suffered a broken thumb but it will probably set their move back awhile. Yes, they are the friends he's moving into a new place with plus his friend is going with us on our trip next month.

I finished watching stranger things 2...now I'm really hooked. I can't wait to see season 3 and the house should be scary fun too.

Stay safe everyone

Glad she’s ok! It’s so scary especially for a new driver with limited experience.

Nice birthday food from your kids Vicki........yep, they look after their mum well!!!

[=][/ Hey all, it’s garbage day here . Most positive thing in days lol. New Rx is eating my guts bleech. They tell me tot give it a week. IDK if i’m Going to make it.

Tomorrow, busy day. Taking my dog up to meet my DSs kittens. Will determine if they come to my house next week or if I trek up there daily. Later, for an early BD treat, GD (and her parents) are taking me & Dave out to eat at Burgatory (yum) and then to see the new Winnie the Pooh movie. One of my favorite child hood books, long before the original movie came out. Best part, they pre-purchased the leather reclining seats. Hope i don’t fall asleep


You need to keep a suduko or puzzle book/pen in the car



Oh, please dooooo. Hasn’t been any good PWI posts here since one girl left the DIS. Won’t name names but prettty sure Mac knows who lol

Hmm, i think my people are ‘the guys’ lol. It never occurs to me to call in a pro unless it’s over our collective pay grade. Need new windows, ten years ago maybe, but too heavy for us to wrangle now. Helps that my middle DS worked for home flipping company and picked up some mad skills.



Seriously? I don’t get it. So many with issues. Did you start with you last day & move backwards?



Hope it all works out for you. Extra tricky when on FDP when it’s tough to switch both ADRs & FP.

That said, I switched times around for several of our ADRs in 2 weeks but crowd calendar says only 5’s. FDP starts the next week. Hoping it’ll be a ghost town.



Chantilly cake? My mom used to have a perfume called Chantilly. Going to guess not the same thing lol



Happy trails to you

Monyk - enjoy squeezing that APH till it screams.

Sounds like a lovely day ahead of you Janet......enjoy that meal and hope the meds aren’t going to cause you too much grief!! Hate when that happens......things that are supposed to help you end up kicking you in the rear!!

That is handy having a DS like that!! Tom “could” do most things........but chooses not to.....and thankfully we’ve found some local guys who are brilliant.......been in business a long time and it’s nice they’re local, lived in the village their whole life, everyone knows them and recommneded them highly. Guy who fitted our utilty and downstairs bathroom lives about 10 minutes away from us......reliable tradesmen really are worth their weight in gold!

Good luck with puppy and kittens.........leather reclining seats! I’d be asleep in no time.........



Why am I awake so early!

It’s was a hot night last night outside........looks bright and sunny and no rain for us today......more heat! Loving this!!!

Out this afternoon for some car fun.........although if I’d known it was staying as hot I’d have rearranged.......but DH is so looking forward to it.........so am I!

Boring breakfast this morning........don't make the drive over......not worth it..........

[schumigirl]

Safe travels!

It is Friday! Decided it is hot and oh so sticky, with rain in the early morning hours, hey, make it a three day weekend.

Hehe, little one came home from work just as the storm hit last night. Lucky girl. And promptly asked for food. Sigh, I think some think my kitchen is open 24 hours. Umm, dinner service tends to end by 8 pm, honey. The cook left. No, a mom is always on call. Made her soup and salad, with a nuked baked potato. Was not going to light the oven again.

It was so muggy after the rain, the house AC ran most of the night. Usually, that does not happen. The nights this summer have been mostly cooler.

With that, end of summer fun is now less than 20 days away. 18 and counting down.

Tea for me to start the day, then some errands, and a late lunch with my Dsis. Ah, a day off, when I get a little bit taste of that life of leisure some homies are enjoying. And I like it.

It’s Friday. I don’t work on Fridays, so I can sleep late right? No. I’m awake at 7:30.

I checked last night and we only had a small amount of water come in under our back door. I think we are very lucky. One of B’s dance teachers had about 5 inches in her basement. There are several road closures. A tree fell across the road that I take to work.

Safe travels for Patty.

Who has a birthday today?

Later this morning B and I are going to a Girl Scout event in Roanoke. We are going to learn all about dogs and dog shows by members of the AKC. I’ve got my Zyrtec and Flonase ready.

 

[pattyw]

Good morning to Schumi, Mac, Tink, Charade, Lynne!! And everyone else just getting started today!

Almost in PA!

Lynne- yep a Mom is always on call! Nice to make a meal for DD at that late hour!!

Have a great day off Charade! Have fun at the scouting event! Hope your allergies are in check with the meds!

Second cup of coffee down- need a rest stop soon!

 

[macraven]

Lynne we put the ac on in March
It hasn’t been off for a second yet so far

Even with the temps dropping to 70 last night, ac still ran
We did not turn it off last year until late October

It might not be really hot outside in the fall but still humid

We are living our life out in comfort

I need to run errands this morning before rain returns in the afternoon

Been driving the car near the empty gas marker
Fill up first errand i do today

Morning Sans family




Safe travels pattyw and monyk.


Happy Birthday to monyk hubby

Heck, being without a job, everyday is a Saturday for me
Minus the cartoons

It’s so nice to call your time your own for sure

And loved the shows in black and white too........The Munsters and Addams Family.......oh and Zorro........am I showing my age here.......lol.......

My favorites were the Munsters and Addams family too. You think that’s why we all enjoy HHN so much.

Bobbie...it's nice when your kids like to cook. Trey made chicken alfredo for my birthday dinner...it was soooooo good especially when you consider it was his first time making it. He also got a chantilly cake from publix. Danielle made a nice mango mousse for dessert a few nights ago....I'm a lucky mom for sure.

Tink your children are so sweet.

Happy Birthday Keisha






Charade you and B enjoy your Girl Scout event in Roanoke.

Lynne have a nice lunch with your sis.

Waving hi to Schumigirl, Robo56, Tink1957, Tgrgrl, keishashadow, ckmiles and any other friends on the thread I hope you have a great Thursday

bobbie68 have a great Friday.......you always seem to have some fun things planned for your daughter and her friends. You are the best mom.

Tgrgrl, ckmiles and everyone else

 

[Charade67]

Just looked at the forecast. We are supposed to get more rain today and tomorrow. Some areas have been evacuated. We have made the national news.

 

[Lynne G]

Hope you are feeling better, and have a very happy birthday Keisha.

 

[Lynne G]

That is terrible Charade. We have some road closures due to down wires and trees, but not the large flooding we could have had.

No matter, phone says 90 percent chance of rain at 1 pm today. Errands will be fine by then. Hope you got gas before the rain, too Mac.

 

[pattyw]

Rainy in Pittsburgh!! To Keisha and a long distance to Lynne on the other side of PA!!

Yep Mac - lots of rest stops for this oldster!

To Keisha! Have a wonderful day!! It’s your day- do anything you want!

 

[schumigirl]

Guys, it’s my friend’s birthday who reads this board but doesn’t post.......she’s a lurker........aren’t you Linda............ I wasn’t sure if it was today or tomorrow.......but called her and it is today.......

Janet’s birthday is the 9th



Charade hope that weather doesn’t affect you in any way........

macraven, yep gotta be comfortable!! That’s more important than anything..........I have a cousin who doesn’t put her heating on when it’s cold.......she puts a jumper on........when it’s really cold it’ll go on.......maybe.......I don’t visit her often anymore!!! She’s unbelievable. My heating is on as soon as it even remotely needs to be on.......

Robo, yes, I believe that watching those two shows started my love of horror....old time horror classics like Frankenstein and Dracula........love those movies!!!

 

[macraven]

Janet/Keishshadow's birthday is August 9.

We have Ky07 (St L) on the 7th, Lynne on the 21st and Tryna/Goofyigment on the 29th this month

Janet will have another round of bd greetings coming up....
maybe we can add another year to her age since she gets to celebrate twice this year.....lol
