Nice of you TinyD. Yeah, she is a fashionista. A petite one though.

Have fun watches the races Squirlz. Safe travels.

Morning Mac. Hope the doctor visits go well.





Enjoy your Thursday all! Morning y'all!

good morning and happy friday eve homies!

@Squirlz @Robo56 safe travels to the both of you. Robo - did you and the fam shut the park down?

 

[pcstang]

Hope you made it by now mac. I have dealt with delays in ATL but I never understand the complaints about the airport. I have to connect there on all my flights. Never an issue getting around the terminals. /

Tomorrow we leave for Detroit for 4 nights. It's the Detroit Grand Prix, featuring 2 Indy Car races. We get to do the Cadillac Corral, open to all V-series Cadillacs. We get to park right on the island outside of a hopitality tent with food and drink for 3 days, plus excellent reserved grandstand seating. We stay in a hotel in Greektown that we have been going to for years whenever there is an event in Detroit. Everybody there knows us. This is our second-favorite annual event next to the one we did 3 weeks ago! Washed and vacuumed the car this afternoon, have to pack tomorrow and we'll be off. Can't wait!

that sounds like a great time! I'm a car guy too although it's always been mustangs. Have fun and post some pics!

"goNDmay9 lol
not sure if tree pollen is doing an end run around my flonase or i'm toying with a migrane but have had arful headache all day. took a nap and, as my norm, woke up really disoriented. home all alone now, nice & quiet - yea. Settled on couch with a long, cold iced tea & thought i'd drive by here & catsup. saw your post...for a sec thought i slept thru to Friday

for those travelling, have fun & be safe. Not sure if Carole has another week or not in NYC but bet it seems her trip has flown by. Always seems the way it goes when you're on vacation.

pcstang - re ATL, it used to be a royal PIA for many of us here (AT & SWA) and having to switch terminals with often less than 30 min time after late starts on the 1st leg of connection. Our last flight a few weeks ago, it sure was nice to stay in same terminal. we have done our share of sitting on the tarmac there when forced to book connections. We're spoiled flying out of our tiny airport (PIT)

Has Mac checked in yet, other than to say good morning?

I am soooo hoping our rain holds off until next week. I have made plans for my Minions to go to a local theme park this weekend and really don't want to see their plans get ruined. C'mon sunshine vibes!!!

I'll take your rain if you'll take our sun! I think it only rained twice in may. We need it!! Mac passed on her lack of rain curse. Supposed to rain this weekend though... and hurricane guys are saying there's a low out in the gulf that 40% likely to develop. We shall seee.....

BUSY day! Busy couple of days. Around midnight last night I realized I hadn't taken the time to eat dinner. Right now I'm about to go make some pasta, but having trouble tearing myself away from the 800 things I need to do. Mom is MIA in the business again so I'm a one man... tiny woman show!

Good Gravy TinyD-no wonder you need vacations! Too bad you can't bottle that energy and sell it. I decided wine for dinner tonight is enough for me (had a large late lunch and then the corporate office had treats...

I will! We get to drive on the track Sunday.

OMG this sounds fun!!

One more day of work (old job/hospital job-I am actually the "extra" person tomorrow unless a fulltimer decided to take off). Then off to MIL at Lake Ozark to pick up the boy. Prob spend the weekend. Supposed to be partly cloudy but smaller chances of rain.

Pulled weeds out of my garden tuesday and pulled up what I thought were onions-turns out the garlic that was sprouting in my cabinet that I tossed in a garden box GREW-have 4 large bulbs that I harvested and more to come! Never did get around to getting tomato plants but turns out darn chickens good for something and their scratching must have scattered seeds-have several plants coming up among the beans. The apple tree (only 5 years old) has so many dang apples on it already I may be shipping applesauce to ya'll later this fall LOL.

Took the middle kid to dinner and to see Captain America:Civil War last night. She very much enjoyed being the "only" past couple days. Oldest kid due home from girls trip any minute now. Love that the kids are so independent enough to travel and stay away from mom but dang-makes the house so quiet!!

Safe travels to all on the road soon! Hope Schumi is having a great time too!

Freshman Formal. Ms. Mouth looked nice, has my jewelry. She will return it as soon as home. Do not trust completely. Girls in sky high heels wobbled as the walked. Sore feet by the end of the night I bet. All looked dressed up. Nice. Late night, so I am hoping DH gets home soon. He can retrieve, I need my sleep. Darn electric company tow truck was beeping and noisy at 2 am. I am a light sleeper sometimes.



Have a good night all. It will be Friday, wahoo!

 

[Robo56]

good morning and happy friday eve homies!

@Squirlz @Robo56 safe travels to the both of you. Robo - did you and the fam shut the park down?

Yes we did. Took our walk through Hogsmeade as we were leaving. It was empty. It was both beautiful and spooky.

Flying with grandchildern back to Indiana tomorrow. Early flight.

 

[Robo56]

Took the grandkids to Juno beach today to the Loggerhead Marinelife Center. It's a rescue and treatment facility for injured turtles. Worth a visit if your in the area.

Good Gravy TinyD-no wonder you need vacations! Too bad you can't bottle that energy and sell it. I decided wine for dinner tonight is enough for me (had a large late lunch and then the corporate office had treats...

I've had trouble getting out of bed lately. I could use another vacation. I kind of got one in April for a few days. Had one in February but I was sick the whole time.... Was "off" work last week but I was doing dance work... I could use a real week off work. That day will come again right? Seems I get one a year on my birthday! lol Wine sounds nice. Think I'll have a glass tonight.

mm garlic. I bought a head of garlic at the store the other day and the outside is purple. I've only ever seen them all white. Any ideas? They were all like that so I assumed they were okay... I've always been lazy with garlic and bought the already minced stuff in a jar! haha...

@Robo56 TURTLES! I love turtles. Thats our family animal.. "be the turtle" my dad says. We had near or over 100 nests on our beaches last year! Record breaking year and I'm hoping for another this year! Wanted to volunteer but mom and dad's house isn't ready yet so no go..

My garlic is streaked with purple on outside as well. Just the variety.
and yeah-you need a REAL week off. Groupon has these fab all inclusive getaways...err so want to get one LOL

Send that sunshine! I can come make it rain for you, all I need to do is get in my order of fly predators and put the poor things out. Instant rain.

Sounds like y'all had an incredible trip! Safe travels!

Delta is my only option. For years I would fly into terminal D and my next leg would be terminal A. No issues but it was tight sometimes. Last two flights this year to Vegas and Lexington, my flight in was terminal D and my second leg was the very next gate over from my arrival. More time to hit the bars! Lol

 

[Robo56]

Allegiant sent out a text alert that our flight was cancelled at 12:45 am this morning Was on on hold for over an hour trying to get things sorted out. Then had to call the car rental and extend. If they try to charge me for the extra bags under my eyes tomorrow I'am going to be pissed Have to laugh about LOL......First time for everything.

Oh well grandchildern get one more day on vacation in sunny Florida. Don't think they will be to upset about it.

Hope Mac reached her destination and is having fun.

Sounds like Schumi is having fun in the hot weather in Manhattan.

Happy trails to all our other homies on the road.

Friday - hip, hip hooray squared. It's national donut day, grab 'em while you can. believe i'm going to pass this time. so hot food has lost it's appeal lately. Rain has thus far only made it more humid. looking forward to cool front that's supposed to come thru this weekend.

lynne - any pictures of the princess?

tinyD - be glad you still have the energizer bunny quotient that comes with youth lol.

My garlic is streaked with purple on outside as well. Just the variety.
and yeah-you need a REAL week off. Groupon has these fab all inclusive getaways...err so want to get one LOL

I bought a groupon getaway (cancellable no less, who knew?) to one of the waterpark hotels @ Cedarpoint. Used a coupon and went thru ebates for even better deal woohoo. had to pick a weekend, will keep an eye on it and cancel if poor weather forecast. That park sits on a narrow spit of land, last place you want to be in a storm on lake erie with all the metal.

TURTLES!!!!!!

yertle!

I love to see people post pictures of their kids/grandkids enjoying 'real' florida along with the man-made wonders. One of my favorite experiences there was Crystal River & snorkeling with the manatees. Need to plan a cooler weather trip to enjoy it again

eeee we've had delays ranging from an hour to 3 on several flights since last November. i was of mind just happy to take off since they only fly to our market a few days a week. Curious, was flight cancelled due to weather or equipment issues? Spirit cancelled on us once after we sat in terminal all day thru delays. All we got was a 'so sad-too bad' a refund will be forthcoming unlike majority of others we've dealth with you throw gimmies at you. Any love from Allegiant lol?
