Something About Nothing ... #12

[SharkyGoddess]

They are! I'm sick of being so sluggish though so this little band reminds me to move when I've been doing my best impression of a rock

AAAck not used to working 40 hours a week-these 2 part time jobs are gonna do me in!! Gotta get rid of one of em...would love to use the extra money for a quickie trip somewhere over Christmas break but afraid to book as will have one going off to college this fall...sorta afraid of extra expenses.

Watching the weather and we are in an "active pattern" and could rain some every day now through June 10th!!!! The chickens are gonna need to grow webbed feet.

these "active patterns" are concerning too as we are full blown heat/humidity one day and and next a cold/wet front rips through-->prime for tornadoes. 5 Years ago this week the EF5 ripped through Joplin MO-the pics are showing as "memories" on facebook...We went to help feed the volunteers several days. Was in Joplin today actually and almost drove down the road where the pics where taken to update them.

As to the cars-I have an '01Toyota 4Runner - still going strong. And DH just bought a new fully loaded CRV (the one with lane correction etc) a few months ago. It's OK- I like my SUV so driving his car is different. No key just the fob thingy and a push button. Weird.

Allergies has made all of us miserable here. Hope everyone has a good night sleep tonight and feels better in am!

Tornados are scary
Five years ago this month a tornado destroyed parts of the town I live in now

Hope that was the last of them for here

It is tough to be working two jobs monyK

Flip a coin to decide which one to keep

Happy Thirsty Thursday all.

Keep safe all in tornado alley.

We are hot and steamy today. Chance of severe thunderstorm, but mostly west of the city, so time to close the house down and turn the air on. Poor DS is not having fun with the high pollen count these next couple of days.

MonyK, working one job is enough. Hope you get the job situation just how you like it.

Hope Schumi and DM are enjoying this burst of summer in NY. Safe travels.

Kitty pictures Tink? Just born kitties are so cute and small. Hope momma cat lets you see the kitties.

TinyD, hope the recital goes well. Kids are so fun to watch, and I give ya a lot of credit teaching them.

With that, I am getting a large cup of tea.

Wake up homies, the sun is out.

Well, yesterday after work I did the pressure cleaning and we are all ready. Who is coming?

 

[keishashadow]

johnny depp is back on the market, single ladies start your engines.

& so it begins, skools out & GD will be sleeping over tonight to start the season.

my DR table that already outlived it's chairs was pronounced dead by the mr yesterday. Have been tightening up the legs for years but just too wobbly at this point. i love to shop except for furniture.

I think it is easier to buy larger clothes sizes
That is how I deal with getting extra steps in

two of the greatest inventions - spanx & lycra

wine o'clock! i'll drink to that lol

My middle son bought a HRV last June and has been really happy with it, especially for the price. However, he warns that it's totally designed for the driver, not passengers. Having ridden in it a few times even as a front seat passenger, I have to agree. But it does have reasonable storage compared to say an Accord without the 50% more cost of the CRV.

our town refuses the hydrant tap in...all the better to collect extra sewage fees from pool owners. Often people will get their 1st fill trucked in to avoid the gouge. really enjoying the nice weather here

Yep illegal to tap the hydrants here too. My Dsis has a well, so it takes a while to fill her pool, but nice and icy cold when coming out of the well.

We finally got the bill from the water company from filling our pool. It really wasn't bad at all! I will have to look again - but I think it came to $200 and then we got a $160 credit for the waste fees. woot woot! It took forever but was easy just filling it with the garden hose.

 

[tinydancer09]

we opened ours a couple of weekends ago - Open to ALL HOMIES! water is still a bit chilly - but it can be a stop on the world tour of homie pools (@tinydancer09 can make us an awesome travel playlist!)

@tinydancer09 - how are the headaches? sounds like those 90 min massages are working! Don't forget Leaving on a Jet Plane, MIA Paper planes (ha ha). Our recital practice is next weekend.

@SharkyGoddess I had never heard of LGI - Little Gaspirilla Island or IRB - Indian Rocks Beach. The things you learn from SAN.

@LynneG hives??!!! bless her heart. that sounds awful. hope you are getting better sleep. as for small suv's my mom LOVES her CRV. She is on her second one. My dad convinced her to go to a car after we said farewell to the massive family vehicle - but she ended up going back to the SUV because she likes being higher up.

@keishashadow i LOVE that twilight zone episode. years ago - 3rd rock from the sun did a nod to that - i wonder how many people got it?

My girls lyrical dance is actually leaving on a jet plane. They're doing leaving on a jet plane, walk like an Egyptian(edited with traditional Egyptian music,) 99 red balloons half German/half English, and Irish step dance from LOTDance. I don't think paper planes would be well received by our parents! Lol I did do that senior year as an in class routine though

so far I'm surviving rehearsals. Have to be at the studio in about an hour and rehearsals don't start until 3... Yikes. Long day. Dress rehearsal day.... Good thoughts good thoughts good thoughts

Good morning homies
Oldest DS and gf started out at 12:30 am to Florida for memorial day getaway and DW had me and him rotf by asking if she could hide in his suitcase and go with them

sending good vibes for your dress rehearsal! i love the song selections BTW. LOL on you actually doing a routine to Paper Planes! That is what i get trying to be sarcastic.

last year we had a torrential downpour / crazy storm on recital day. DD was 3 and i had to grab her out of the car and run barefoot to the back of the theatre where the dancers were dropped of. Everyone was soaked! We still laugh about it.

Another slow day here. Due to an herb shortage we are out of our #1 selling product. Orders are stacking up and my Wife spends most of her time answering e-mails from customers asking about it. When it arrives, hopefully next week, all heck will break loose! In the meantime she's trying not to worry herself to death.

Morning homies

Ok that's funny Mac.

Morning everyone from Universal. Sun shining, nice breeze. So far as weather is concerned it's turning out to be the best May visit yet.

Happy car hunting Lynne.

Congrats Mac on the new bed. Hopes this helps with sleep.

 

[macraven]

Woot!
Robo is gonna have a greAt day at the darkside!

Take a butterbeer for the team back home

 

[marciemi]

Speaking of Butterbeer, I got my new pins in the mail yesterday! Got the first 2, but thought you guys might like the third as well!

 

[pcstang]

Well, yesterday after work I did the pressure cleaning and we are all ready. Who is coming?

Pick me! Pick me!
We still haven't found new pool deck furniture. Living in a small town sucks. Guess I'll have to shop online.
