Something About Nothing ... #12

[schumigirl]

Haven`t quite caught up with everyone.....but nice hair for your daughter Charade, you did it well......and congrats to Keisha`s Granddaughter again.....she is a little superstar....

Big hello to everyone else……..


Wedding was beautiful.

If there was a perfect day to be had, it was the wedding day. Weather wasn't perfect, but the sun came out for the outside pictures and they had the sea behind them for that....lovely.

Did get some beautiful pictures and we have some lovely memories of the day with everyone in the family.....but here`s a couple of Tom and I...…..

​

Came back late last night after a long drive back from Scotland......slept like a baby all night. Wish we had stayed one more night now.....didn`t really need to be back till today...….

I have an appointment for a root canal at dentist......there`s something to look forward to!!!

Anyway, hope everyone is good...….

 

[macraven]

Your pictures are absolutely beautiful!

 

[schumigirl]

Your pictures are absolutely beautiful!

Thanks mac...….it was such a gorgeous wedding and I was so happy we weren't away on a trip and missed my lovely nephew getting married..….

 

[Lynne G]

Love your dress and fasinator, Schumi. So glad you had a lovely time, and sorry to hear of tooth issue.

the mom get up yelling will sound

I Used to be good at that!

Patty, goes for you, too. Hope no or not as much as predicted.

Thanks! Last night they predicted the worst will stay south of us!

Kids got tickets for next Monday’s game. They are stoked.

Yay! Hope your team wins!

but here`s a couple of Tom and I...…..

Beautiful picture! Glad you had a nice time! Weddings are always so fun!

Lazy Sunday, indeed Lynne! Slept in and enjoying coffee. We'll make brunch later- Troy is NOT a morning person! Doing my grocery shopping via Instacart- we'll go pick it up later! So nice to be able to just pick up the groceries rather than dodging the Sunday crowds at the store! And the laziness will have to end as yesterday nothing was accomplished!


Hi Mac!

Happy travels Buckeev!

Have a great day all!!

 

[Tygerlilly]

Tygerlilly how long have you been in the land of the okies?

Um... Around 20 years. Far too long in my opinion. Can't wait to get out of OK and into a new adventure somewhere else!

Carole, you guys are so cute!! I'm glad you had a great time. No fun on the dentist appointment.


It snowed here! Driving home from work this morning was rough. I'm going to leave extra early tonight so I can drive nice and easy and not rush. The ground was still warm enough that it was starting to melt in some places, but the high is only 23° now and will be around 8° when I leave for work around 11pm.

 

[Lynne G]

Raining steady right now. Will change to snow around 6 pm, with early morning snow to come at over an inch an hour. Now saying 4 to 6 inches as of noon news. Guess I will listen for tonight, to see if any changes in rain/snow line. Ugh. Unless we just get rain, fully expecting to telework and no school for the kids.

Some Flower Show, Flower Power pictures. I will post more when I can get little one to size them right for the Dis.

 

[keishashadow]

Oh snow. All i can say is march better darn go out like a lion. How bad is it you ask...i made steaks in cast iron skillet vs grilling. No way was I going out in that mess

Carole - you two look downright regal !

Mac - that was a nice, uplifting post earlier. Always nice to get that here.

Sorry to hear about the bad weather! We have Directv and Joe sprays Rainx on it to keep the snow and ice off. Usually works pretty good! Yay on GD!! You can be a proud Grandma on vacay!! Congrats on completing tax returns! I can't even get started on mine or the family's until I get work financials done!!



TRIED to, You're one step ahead of him!



How nice of you to adopt your friend's dog! With him and the chicks, your house will be full- of lots of love!



Yikes!! We have only flurries! Supposed to get 3-5 inches by Monday morning, but the worst is supposed to stay south of us in the ski areas and N. PA. Good idea to telecommute!! Stay safe, Lynne!



Yay on the new furnace! Now you'll stay toasty warm- for a long time!!!



Morning, Mac!



I need it!! Glad you're having a great time!!



Love that place! The portions are HUGE!!!!



So sorry about that- sounds like he brought joy to many people! That's a special gift!



Glad to hear!!

Happy Saturday all!! Flurries here- snow expected all weekend! Lots of work to do!! I have accounting work to do as well as housework! So a hibernation due to the nasty weather is very necessary!

Hope Schumi had a fantastic time at the wedding!

Have a great day all!!

Hmm never thought of using rainex...yinz guys are smart. And your hockey team crushed us the other night too boohoo don’t think we’re gong to make the playoffs.

@pattyw

House full of teens-middle has bunch of friends over, they are giggling like mad playing apples to apples. Did a pizza and snack run so they are a happy bunch now. DH fled to the lake a day early to avoid snowmageddon and having to drive in it tomorrow. Will actually give him some additional network time as he decided to stay at same hotel where convention is held instead of his moms. Chickies all tucked in, plastic on run restapled, food/water replenished and meal worm cake hung so they have something to do (besides dig holes in straw and bury their food and water.).




You are kinda living my dream retirement life Glad that you had such a great time!


Wow he really had an impact, and goes to show how every single person can make a huge difference every day. Hope it is a comfort to his family to show how much he will be missed.
May the odds be ever in your favor!

Ah yes dry shampoo-with two daughters I've learned to hide MY stash of dry shampoo or else it is gone when I need it. And a friend who shows horses showed me a long time ago the different kinds of braids-she was an expert from braiding manes!


Now that is an awesome boss! Sounds like you really needed the sleep too! I slept til after 9 this am and was shocked to see time when I woke up.

OOOh bets that is pretty!!
She is as nice IRL as here! Hoping our paths cross again!
We need a SANS family meetup!!

Ok now you are making me blush!
I am a firm believer that our animals find us-she seems to be a good fit, but we will see for sure when the visits start. DH really wants a puppy, but um no, not with baby chicks. Compromise may be older dog now, baby chicks now, and puppy over the summer when he is home to spend more time around animals, and babies will be big enough to fend for themselves better. I am ok with 2 dogs. We have the space and yard for them.

@Charade67 -have you seen Thor:Ragnarok yet? Good and funny too. Captain Marvel is a week away then another month? to Avengers:Endgame.

DH was trying to see when his UOAP expired...I told him the date but he wouldn't say why he wanted to know. He already knows I am renewing mine and middle DD's...hmmm wonder if he is thinking another holiday trip??? That man can BS everyone else but he could never fool me...so he usually tries to avoid any mention of anything he is planning. He did manage to totally surprise me with Lion King tickets for Christmas though, only 5 more days to that!

@Sue M bet you are ready for spring too!

Struck me funny re the horse groomer having an edge.

MonyK was posting while i was posting. Yes, I have seen Ragnarok. I was annoyed that they cut off Thor’s hair. We will be watching it again probably later this week because B hasn’t see it yet. We watched Dr. Strange today. Tomorrow will be Guardians 2 and possibly Spider-man (B’s favorite superhero).

I’d take him bald

Beautiful!!

And your hockey team crushed us the other night too boohoo don’t think we’re gong to make the playoffs.

Sorry! Pens are still way ahead of us in points! They look in good shape for wild card status! Sabres are-still!- in rebuilding mode I guess!

 

[macraven]

Waiting for walking dead show!

Had X-rays done again before the weekend on the foot
Some issues so seeing another doc tomorrow

I’m okay with it as long as no needles are involved
Lol

Have been watching the weather channel
I’m concerned about some of the homies here as it does not look good for youse!

Hope all stay safe

My weather has been heavy rain all day and colder
Southern GA had talk of a tornado

Looks like right now Florida is having a tornado

Sending healing wishes that your doctor visit goes well tomorrow!

Hoping that all are well with the severe weather! Tornadoes are very scary!

Stay safe all!!

 

[Lynne G]

Well, 2 hour delay for little one, and 10am start for me. DH just came home and said roads are barely passable. Still snowing. I think my delay may not change, but will check about her school early tomorrow, thinking they will end up closed. City schools already said closed.

Hunkered down, and I agree, we better see warm end of March. Next week, wind chills in the teens. What? Sigh, still Winter, yes?

 

[macraven]

Lynne hope you and all the homies stay safe on the roads when you have to go out

Many of you have dangerous roads due to the winter storm

I can’t imagine how scary it will be for the school bus travel
Hope the school districts close school tomorrow

Tygerlilly, tell your boss Mac said you can stay off work and still get paid due to dangerous road conditions

 

[Monykalyn]

Well our snowmageddon was only a couple inches, but flurries most of day til sun came out late this afternoon. Very cold though. Checked the hens a couple times, offered to let them out for a bit-um no-got quite the scolding from them for the snow and holding door open! They will stay in covered and sheltered run all day tomorrow too due to dangerous cold. Kids hoping for no school but will depend on the windchill. Roads clear now.

Carole LOVE the pics of you and Tom!! Gorgeous and love love the dress and fascinator!
Hope tygerlilly has safe passage to work tonight!
Mac-hope that foot heels soon! and Ugh-saw about the tornadoes - sounds really bad in Alabama.

Nice flower pics Lynne! Love garden shows, and sooo ready for spring. Looks like after this cold we will warm and stay in 50's.

Some work done, laundry done, binge watched Psych between stuff. Greek Chicken for dinner, Moscow Mule drink of choice as I found I still had a can of ginger beer in drink fridge!

Almost bed time...

Thanks so much!! Yes, weddings are a joy to attend...…

We sometimes use the home delivery options for grocery delivery, saves even leaving the house.....anything to avoid the crowds....which is why we do love grocery shopping on a Thursday....our main weekly shop anyway......ideal!!

Carole, you guys are so cute!! I'm glad you had a great time. No fun on the dentist appointment.


It snowed here! Driving home from work this morning was rough. I'm going to leave extra early tonight so I can drive nice and easy and not rush. The ground was still warm enough that it was starting to melt in some places, but the high is only 23° now and will be around 8° when I leave for work around 11pm.

Thank you Tygerlilly…...we really did have the best time...….yes, not looking forward to this one today!! Hope you had a safe journey to work.....

That`s what ginger beers were designed for!!!!

Thank you......I did like the outfit a lot...….

Another one I hope the weather doesn't impact your days ahead...….I do believe we are all ready to have spring shine on all of us!!!!



We haven't had the storm that hit the UK yesterday bad at all......lots of rain and slightly higher winds, but nothing compared to some......going to be cold and breezy......not time to put the warm jackets away yet.....

Lazy morning of some housework then leave around 11ish for dentist appointment...…. I have a great dentist, but still......would rather be doing something else.....anything else!!!

Have a great Monday...……

 

[macraven]

Schumi, all three of your cartoon sayings had me laughing this
morning
Hysterical funny!

Where in the world do you come up with these things??!

Can’t pick my favorite one
I read one and howl and say, this is choice
Read the next one and
Say the same, read the last one and get same howling over it

So damn funny

Dreaded dentist visit
Hope it al goes painless for you and no owies

 

[Lynne G]

Hope the dentist visit goes quick, and no pain, Schumi.

Yeah, we just got 6 inches of snow, that had freezing rain on top. Delays, but roads are much better than were last night. Sigh, high temp on Wednesday is 28. That camel better be inside this week. One frigid March day coming up.

Took a few minutes to set up my telework, so happy to be in casual clothes, and will be doing my get up yell around 8:30. Little one is still delayed until 9:30. Going to make older one drop her off. He also has class today, but I don’t know if he has any cancellations.

Ooh, hear neighbors shoveling. Might have to wake older one earlier, to shovel.

Later homies. Stay warm and safe.

Hope those not accounted for in Alabama are found safe. Terrible line of tornadoes. Prayers.

 

[pattyw]

I have a great dentist, but still......would rather be doing something else.....anything else!!!

Yuk on dental appointments! I dread just a cleaning! (And my dentist is a nice, young, attractive guy!)

Delays, but roads are much better than were last night

Glad the weather is improving! Nice to tele- commute! We join the group of those seeing arctic temps this week!

Morning Mac!

to all just getting started this morning!

Happy Monday!!

Afternoon all

Jr, who didn’t chance the uncleared roads yesterday had his leftover steak dinner when he stopped by on way to work

Moving slowly, between TWD viewing and an extra day off this weekend had ruff time falling asleep last night normal time. First snooze garnered me maybe 3 hrs. Let’s say i made up for it when i crawled back into bed this am.

Decided to look at white noise machines on amazon, liking the idea of various sounds. Thinking the beach sounds should be soothing sans sea gulls.

Feel as though I should be somewhat productive today, probably will knock off an easy tax return and be satisfied.

Making burgers for dinner, easy peasy. Lent starts Wednesday, a challenge as the mr (who not of the faith does the meat less drill with me or he’d starve) doesn’t eat any fish. Will do shrimp, doesn’t like fried. No red sauce on pasta, looks like it’s shrimp scampi for him till it comes out of his ears...or peanut butter sammie if I’m mad at him
