Something About Nothing ... #12

[tinydancer09]

I'm in the process of cleaning the entire house. I've barely been home in three weeks and it's a disaster zone upstairs. Downstairs holly has kept in order. Almost all laundry is done... Kind of. It's in a holding place in the laundry room until I clean everything else upstairs. I have suitcases And luggage EVERYWHERE! As well as Halloween decorations I haven't had time to finish putting up.

Also how is it 1130 already?!

The boy is coming into town tomorrow so hopefully I'll get it all done before then. Otherwise it won't be done until next week. Better get a move on...

Also it's Harry Potter weekend and I just went grocery shopping for myself for the first time in three weeks. I plan to have a weekend without having to leave the house.

 

[schumigirl]

This homie is now home

Going to rest and do very little tomorrow

Kind of like having a vacation from the vacation .......


In no way will I be Carole's twin and do laundry toMorrow and then get the suitcases emptied

Probably have all things put away next week

Why change what works

Lol..........quite right too.........I'm a bit odd like that with laundry and stuff.......or so everyone tells me

Get your feet up and watch trashy tv and cuddle cats......take out food is good too. Saves cooking. Hope you get a good sleep too, that always helps........


Haven't gotten up yet, DH left very early this morning.......but looks like it's still raining........we did get some sunshine yesterday, but, not much.

Grocery shopping this morning........think we'll have lasagne for dinner tonight........will make double cheese sauce and make macaroni cheese for DS, he doesn't really like lasagne.

Have a good Friday...........

 

[Kivara]

Happy Friday all! Glad everyone is getting home safely. Take care, Mac...hope the doctor can get you feeling better!

Kiddos have the day off from school for some reason (Continued education, I believe it's called)...I call it "Clean out your own hamster's cage" day! Will also be spending a chunk of the day working on Halloween costume...very excited by that! Usually they are almost done by now, but I've need the kiddos in the base clothes this time to get started, so I am WAY behind!

If I don't make it back here til Monday, have a great weekend all!

Terri is was so awesome saying a quick hello! I wish it had clicked that the MIB meetup was the same day as our HHN dinner. Next time!

The start of our week was solo rushed with flight cancellations and having to drive in, but some how we made it work. My DD's 21st Bday dinner was great, and our three parks in one day at Disney went remarkably smooth. Universal is always a relaxing trip for us. Toothsome was fantastic and will be a much for return trips, and Kong was better than expected. HHN was an absolute blast! Krampus is my favorite house and Dead Man's WARF my favorite scarezone.

I hope those still at the parks are having a great time, and that everyone who has traveled home has arrived safely!

 

[SharkyGoddess]

Schumi you are correct
My schedule was late Friday night to return home but with a medical issue I am having, switched the flight and returning tonight

I can contact my doc on a Friday as they are off on Saturday

My side effects from a med I am taking has become a problem so coming home early to discuss it with doc

I have to take the next pill Oct the 28
This way doc can let me know if labs can be pushed and know before the 28 th if I continue on it

Sad to leave today and still trying to see Lynne before I leave
She has another day in Orlando

I'm sorry to hear you're having problems Mac! I hope you and your Dr can get things sorted for you soon!

 

[SharkyGoddess]

Oh yea.... I AM NOW AN AP MEMBER!!!

 

[Robo56]

Mac I hope the doc can come up with a plan to make you feel better. Sending some healing thoughts and prayers your way . I second Carole's instructions, put those tootsies up and hug those kitties and chill


I did try to remember all the things my sisters and niece could possibly tell my husband I was up to on vacation and spill the beans to him first much to his amusement. The pillow fight was started by my older sister and my possibly mooning them through the deluxe room window opening is purely conjecture and the result of them having to many cocktails that's my story and I' am sticking to it

Ok......you gotta keep that mooning story for next year.........I want to hear the whole unedited version................have you thought of doing a trip report...........

 

[macraven]

I like the part of you mooning the sisters.....

 

[Lynne G]

Home sweet home. Kids were fighting from the time they picked me up. Yep, it is good to be home.

Bags all unpacked, but too tired and dark to do wash.


Now to plan my winter vacation with the kids. Ah, let the planning start to pick up.

Have a good Friday night. And gosh, have to wear pants and a jacket now. Pretty fall colors as the sun set.

Time for tea and relaxing. Mac, I hope there is hope for good health today. Just keep hugging those kitties. Sending hugs.

 

[macraven]

I was wondering when you would get home Lynne

Kids fighting so all is back to normal

Hahahahha

Sounds like regular life for you is back


Mr Mac said to me around 6:30 this w evening....

What are you fixing for dinner


Looked at him and said, you're on your own

Life is back to normal for me too

Made two calls to doc and no call back
Did talk to her nurse and she said the doc had to talk to me
Disappointing.....

Time to find new docs in my area

 

[schumigirl]

Happy planning your next trip Lynne.........glad you had nice time on this one.........

Mac, that sucks! Yep, find someone local..........


Slept so late this morning..........went to bed around 11.30 last night and slept till 9.45 this morning........can't remember last time I slept so late. And didn't even have any wine last night that I can blame........lol......

So, a lazy start to the day. Have to write a reference for friends daughter, the book group I've been a member of for years is having a lunch today I'd forgotten about.......oops! Then, few jobs to do........trip report I think will be postponed till tomorrow.........will get there eventually!

Been raining all night, but looks a nice enough day.........definitely time to wear new boots.........yay!

Have a good Saturday...........

 

[macraven]

She wins the blue ribbon of the week from the sans

I only wish I could have a routine sleep

Most of the homies are back home now

Have a great weekend and many thanks to schumi for including the day of the week for me

Doesn't happen often I sleep so late..........how much longer can I use jet lag as a legitimate excuse for being tired.........

Have added a few pics to HRH and PB threads today, not too many but a few................found a couple more Portofino ones earlier so will add them if I can find them again.........Photobucket loves me

Keish got home last night I think........

Hot, hot hot Thai Red Curry tonight........with coconut rice........lush!!

 

[macraven]

The homies will be over at 7 for dinner






Wait.......
I think all of us will miss your dinner at with you being 5 hours ahead of us, the food is gone now

And I do not want to arrive just to clean the kitchen and be on dish duty

 

[schumigirl]

Lol.......hey good timing ..........I'm just checking in..........yes, time difference sucks!


Dinner was lush, Thai curry was so good, hot and spicy........DS had pizza again............oh don't worry kitchen was tidied hours ago........I can't abide mess........I'm so sad a times.....lol..........so you'd be ok to visit.....would never put you on dish duty....... Have you decided on dinner yet tonight? Something nice I hope........

Watched Suicide Squad tonight.........was better than I thought it would be, wine helped with a superhero type movie.....now watching a spooky dooky one........it's only 10.30.........love a good scare!

What did you get at Toothsome? I haven't ventured inside yet and am worried I'll be overwhelmed by all the awesome options.

I arrived home last night - and did get right to getting the laundry washed. I hate letting dirty clothes sit. That's the only thing I'm a neat freak about though. Our third hotel did have a washer/dryer in our room though so I only had to do one load for the entire family. Though that clean laundry is still sitting in the dryer. I need to go fold that this evening.

Our current house will have its inspection on Monday. It was built in 1955 so I'm a bit nervous. It's a good house, but still an older house. Fingers crossed all comes back good - especially since my husband is great at fixing things and he'll be in Orlando. He drove back with us yesterday and is head back tomorrow morning. He'll fly in two weeks though for a quick visit.

It's a bit chilly here. Well, chilly for me. I'm wearing a lightweight fleece though still in shorts and t-shirt. It's only 73 in my house. We keep the ac closer to 80 so that's a big difference.

I had the brisket and mushroom meatloaf, it was fabulous! My dd had the fettuccine and loved it, I forget what my hubs and oldest ds had but I know they liked it, my youngest ds had a regular burger. He's kinda picky

We each had a different flavor shake (red velvet, coffee, cinnamon, double chocolate & bacon) and they were all light & fluffy, not heavy at all.
