Something About Nothing ... #12

[keishashadow]

Kid made it to beach in record time. Not going to call that a good thing. Have to laugh, it'll be hotter here than there over next few days.

Yes, the Beats concert I'm going to is on the 5th. That afternoon, watching the taping of The Chew, concert, then dessert party in France. HeHe, I am hoping to get even a handshake from any of them. I will be taking pictures for sure.

I'm tickled, most of the D23 stuff is on the west coast, and sometimes a short fuse, and well, I am not in a hurry to cross the country. So, when the tickets opened up at 12 noon our time, for an event I would be able to attend, I grabbed mine. Doesn't surprise me it sold out fast. The private ride and food at the ToT in HS, which was another chunk of change that would be later that night, also went on sale the same time and day, but I passed. It sold out in 10 minutes. Since MK is open to midnight that night, I was going to go there after Illuminations. Illuminations start at 9pm, so I figure I can still have a few hours at MK. It's the only day MK magic hours at night are during my stay. Busy day, but like Mac, I can sleep later. I may even start at MK that morning, as then easy ride via monorail to get to Epcot, either that or I may just stay in Epcot most of the day. Still tweeking my schedule, as the stupid WDW has changed things around 3 times in the last couple of weeks. I guess some things set in stone will be on 3 August. Eeek, that means 60 days away. LOL

Yes, lost the TA update link to new hrs, all for MK seemed late those 2 weeks. Thought it was just me scratching my head that this trip is turning into a bear to plan. Even Universal part is tripping me up this year on dining decision. Ouch, thought ToT included in that pkg, didn't realize it was another. That's ok, I sort of have do it already. My first trip ever on Tot, we got stuck and had to climb down a ladder at the end. CM said to follow her for a couple of return FPs, so I did...right into the control room. The employees in there (small, narrow room) looked up in unison, turned pale and screamed at the same time "get out". Ooopsie

I wish Blues Traveler was playing on my dates...I got Sugar Ray, I can't recall any of the songs he sings.

Just wanted to watch my mileage turn over...only took me 8 years to get to 2000 posts and it's only right that it does it here.

Have seen him at least twice, not really a fan. Was surprised he's quite the showman, enjoyed the act.

2K has a nice ring to it, congrats.

You took me to my first trip to Biergarten. I went when I was down for my failed attempt to get hired last year. I felt bad for my friend cause she was having health issues so couldn't eat very much, and I had like 3 plates and dessert. I love sausage.

I am smiling...bad me.

Thank you x

Horrible news, sorry.

Sharky - brain's been slow, I'm still not gettting if you were able to book dining pre HHN night or you're talking some sort of package thing.

So sorry to hear of your cousin's news Real. I wish them comfort and peace. My sister in law lost her brother's wife to brain cancer that had spread after she had been battling breast cancer. Horrible. Left 2 young kids. I am so hopeful that a cure is found.

Very warm night, and all settled in after soccer practice and some errand running.

Not sure which concert time I have. D23 only gave me a confirmation and all website says is general and no time schedule. I assume not the latest one, and I assume we show up for the Chew show around 11:30 or so. I think the afternoon taping is starting at noon. I guess, like all the stuff this year, more details later. Makes hard to plan. I agree. Now, off to make some tea, it is that kinda night.

Later all.

We're planning BBQ Saturday too with family for hubs pre birthday as we won't be home on Sunday - we got rid of our huge gas BBQ and back to charcoal now as most of the time just the two of us.
I was just off to bed but had a sad call from my cousin - his wife has been battling cancer but he called to tell me it's now spread to her brain and she's deteriorating very quickly. Very saddened by the call and utterly sick of this terrible disease. They live a long way from us so I feel helpless about what I can do to assist - other than being here for him to talk x

Sorry to hear about your cousins wife. Sending prayers.

We did eat well there that day!
It was fun with you

RFF, such sad news about your cousin
Sending prayers

Quick drive by! Hello and hope all are well. Seems I missed some bad/sad news. Sorry to hear it.


This a bit sums up my day. Made it to the parents new house. Still a lot of work to be done, but it's coming along nicely! I'll try to snap some pictures and share before the weeks out

Keisha glad DS made it safely there.........hope he has a blast!! Stuck on ToT.........

Another hot one today........clearly not Florida hot........they win that one......but, for us.......its hot. Portable air units worked fabulous last night.......wish we`d bought them before. Supposed to have thunder this afternoon, but no rain.......hopefully.

Just saw some beautiful duvet covers, cushions for bed and bedroom chairs for winter, one design was purple-ish in colour and other two had shades of purple through them(of course) ......one was mainly silvery and shimmery........gorgeous!!! So I`m now sorted for winter bedding this year as I brought 2 pairs of gorgeous sheets back from NY........I really do hate shopping..........honest

Hope Friday is fun for you..........

 

[Lynne G]

Schumi, that bedding sounds beautiful. Hehe, my iPad corrected to Schumacker. Steamy day for us, should feel temps over 100. Oh, and the weather girl said random downpours as the day goes on. Joy. Once again we will play the storm roulette.

Good morning homies! Oh yeah, TGIF!

 

[macraven]

It's morning time again
And that means time for me

About the weather comments, I'll take the heat anytime over shoveling snow

Anywhere you go in the South, there is ac so it's doable and you don't have to hole up in your house

And i find I don't eat as much when it is hot
But come winter here, I'll make up for that

 

[RAPstar]

UTH tour booked for Sept 23! Can't wait!!

Yay first paycheck from the new job! I'm tired tho, brain didn't want to shut off last night.

 

[SharkyGoddess]

morning y'all

Woke up to overcast skies and minisculely (it's a word!) lower temps. It's the perfect day for some couch napkin!

 

[marciemi]

Marcie did you finally get your family to beirgarten?

That is great

I know when we went, it was not a place
That you frequent

Hope your fam enjoyed it

Just me & Royce went, but after seeing the handbells there I knew I had to get him there some time! (He was in a handbell choir growing up, as were my boys). He enjoyed it so thanks for bringing me there or we might never have tried it!

 

[Realfoodfans]

Great weather here again today. Spent the afternoon with the paddling pool and the littlies with my daughter in their garden then out tonight to DS and DIL - she has done me a manicure and pedicure - great girl she only returned from New York this morning having worked a night flight home, train back up to Cheshire from Heathrow, done some gardening etc but keeping awake to get back to UK time - oh to be young for that energy! We ordered pizza to save her cooking so a lovely day which after the news yesterday I am very very grateful for. Also grateful for your kind thoughts.

I love handbells Marcie - and church bells too.
We don't have AC - not regularly that warm - but big fans at night!
Just a quick visit off to bed now didn't sleep well last night x

 

[schumigirl]

It's the perfect day for some couch napkin!

I love that couch napkin!!! That going to be my new name for naps..........


Been sitting out in garden all night.......still out just now, but got air conditioning units on in 2 bedrooms ready for later........already nice and cool........should be another good nights sleep........

So still tonight, not a sound around us......just the way we like it........

Plans for BBQ tomorrow evening.......weather is supposed to be good again........yay! Loving this heat.......

 

[macraven]

hoping it will last longer than 5 minutes...

Good.........your garden will grow nicely..........

It's been threatening here for an hour or so........dark clouds rolled in before it went pitch dark........few weeks ago it was still light at this time........nearly 11pm........now it's been dark for more than half an hour........winter is on its way...........

Had some very berry Ciroc vodka tonight..........with lemonade.........lovely! Brought it back from duty free last year........we have two of them......well, one and a half now........lush! Big bottles too.........lol........

Nearly bedtime for us here..........but it's so warm......it's nice sitting out so late...........

Everytime I hear Ciroc think of puff daddy. Not sure if he owns a piece of the brand or just a spokesman but his face was plastered everywhere last big campaign. Never had it, mostly for aforementioned reason that the ads annoyed me. That variety sounds good. Might have to go off my brands and sample. Sounds berrygood

Mac - you are overdue for a good soaking it seems. Do you have an official drought in effect? Had some doozie storms roll thru today again. Odd to see it so dark at noon. Cleared up within an hour and in the pool we plopped, sure won't have to top off the pool this week. Cannot believe how much rain we got in just a few hours. The veggie garden is cranking out tomatoes & zukes since before 4th of July. Earliest I can remember. Nothing better than a fresh outta tthe garden tomato

Oh I can't stand P Diddy or whatever he's called now.........could put me right off it.........well maybe not altogether......it is rather nice.......I love berry flavoured things........love absolut Raspberry........never get a headache with that one!

Tom just showed me what was left of the bottle......litre bottle at that.......... It's been a long night........actually it's now Saturday here.........
