Something About Nothing ... #12

Waiting for Sunday night for twd

 

[Lynne G]

Ooh, it is Sunday, and another early start. Foul mouth is slowly stirring. I am wearing my fleece pants and shirt, and will be wrapped in a blanket shortly. What we do for our kids!

Got pelted with hail last night. 40 to 50 mph winds. Joy.

Wind advisory until tomorrow morning. Outside sounds like you are in an airplane.

Wish me luck no damage to car today. So far, the roads are clear, but with this wind, stuff will fly.

Music everywhere now. Santa has arrived at the mall, before the turkey. Yep, that holiday traffic is on the rise.

Enjoy your Sunday all. Time for me to put the tea and hot chocolate in a to go cup.

 

[marciemi]

Morning all! Believe it or not, I'm working on Christmas cards. Mac, can you please PM me your new address since I'm still showing IL? Anyone else who wants a Christmas card, feel free to PM me your address as well. Warning - once you get on my Christmas list you may never get off it!

 

[macraven]

You got it now Marcie

Lynne sent you a pm for help on the military exchange for UO tickets thread


Yes
Cold here too
Put my new electric blanket on last night.... Brrrrrr

 

[tink1957]

It was an electric blanket night for me too...I'm not ready for winter

I say we all move to Florida.

We decided to see the regular version of Fantastic Beasts after I get home from work today...I can't wait.

Have a great Sunday everyone

 

[tink1957]

Where is everyone? Must be getting ready for turkey day.

Loved Fantastic Beasts, it was nice to see the wizarding world, American style.

Coffee time for me

 

[Lynne G]

Wahoo, another windy day, and a great hairdo day. So much for any styling. Still blessedly cold, 20's wind chill temperature. But, at least there's some sun starting to try to brighten the day.

Done my tea and ready for more. Feels cool inside now too.

So glad you enjoyed the Fantastic Beasts movie Tink. Was fun to relive some of the potter lore.

Come on now, yep, Turkey Day is getting close. Then the Christmas music in the stores makes more sense. LOL

and another funny:

But,

Gotta go all, have a great Monday!

 

[marciemi]

It was an electric blanket night for me too and I'm IN Florida! What're everyone's plans for the holiday? I fly out to Matt's in DC on Wednesday (BRRRR!) and we're doing Thanksgiving at his new girlfriend's family's house - should be interesting! Otherwise, probably hunkering down in the cold to watch football (on TV) and playing with a Corgi. Royce will unfortunately be here alone working the whole weekend (Amazon).

 

[macraven]

40 now and going to 53 around noon today

I believe the sky has fallen here......
But nowhere near the temps from where I moved from

My electric blanket was my best friend last night


My first Tday in two years and ready for it
Only the 3 of us but fine with me

Cats will be whining for turkey...
And they will get their share also

Have a great week homies!

 

[Lynne G]

- - in Mac's house. LOL

 

[macraven]

- - in Mac's house. LOL

Absolute hoot!!!

I sent a few pics to a couple of homies when my cat got in the oven and just sat there

If I can find that pic, I'll post it

Or if whoever I sent it to still has it, they can post it

I have wifi again! I still have a lot of boxes left to unpack but not having wifi helped me focus on unpacking for a bit at least.

I'm envious of those who saw Fantastic Beasts. I can't wait to see it but am not sure when I'll get a chance. I still don't have phone service or FL car insurance, or FL license or a million other things yet. So, I suppose I need to do some adulting and do that stuff before I go out to the movies.

We're going to do T-giving on Saturday. We've driven down to Orlando twice on T-giving day before so my kids are used to us changing the day on them. (It's a great day to drive down!). We are going to spend Saturday at my parents house. So, I suppose I'll spend real thanksgiving day unpacking more.

I'm not sure what the current temp is. It's supposed to get up to 68 and was in the 40's this morning. My house was only 66 when I woke up for the upstairs temp. (Downstairs was 68). I'm back to fighting not turning on the heat. It's supposed to be in the 70's and even hit 80 this week so I don't think I'll need heat this week.

Evening all.........

Made it back from the wilds of nowhere...........absolutely fabulous weekend and actually enjoyed having no internet access for 4 days........very strange.

Lovely weekend with some lovely people, and made some firm friends for the future........we all reminisced individually about our much loved friend and it was funny, poignant and at some points hilarious........learned a few things I never knew about her..........but super weekend. Most importantly her husband and children loved us all getting together and having fun. Lots of alcohol and games too.........

Back to the most horrendous weather.........we have gales, torrential rain and so cold! Our heating is definitely on.......38F and sounds dreadful outside........glad we are in and have nowhere to go tonight.........definitely a lazy night while we recover from not being in bed till around 3.30am last few nights.........was fun though!!!

Hope everyone doing ok...........

 

[Lynne G]

Yay! Kolby's getting settled one of these days. Opening the boxes is half the fun.

Yay! Schumi had a great get away and enjoying fond memories.

That's so funny Mac. I'd like to see that picture of the oven cat if you can find it.

Ok, it's just cold out. And that wind. At least the snow stayed north of us, just flurries that said, yep, winter is coming. Count down is 31 days. Eeek. That means Christmas is just a few days later.

 

[Lynne G]

PSA: Dogs and cats can enjoy the turkey. Just sayin'

 

[Lynne G]

Yep, start that dreaming of a white Christmas. Well, for me, an unusually hot and sunny one.

Good morning all you homies. Helloooooo. Any one awake?

 

[macraven]

Awake and drinking coffee

 

[Lynne G]

morning Mac! Hope the coffee is hot. Cold again and windy again. On my second cup of tea.

 

[keishashadow]

Weatherman was way off yesterday, in teens when I went out yesterday. Dressed for it all except a hat, my ear lobes were freezing lol. That first cold day is such a shock to the system. Fingers' crossed it breaks 40 degrees today.

Where's Robo? Thought of her when I Finally found a decent 4 ft 'holiday' tree yesterday @ Michaels yesterday. Family thinks I've lost what marbles I have left...hmmmph

Kittie in the oven sounds wrong but picture is so cute.

Lynne Years ago one of my dogs helped himself to one of the turkey breasts I had cooling on my island. Don't ask if I cut off the 'sampled' parts & served it to my in-laws.

Well, since Marcie made the mistake of asking...

I'm up to 20 people on Thanksgiving, put the 1st 25 pounder in oven this morning. Tomorrow, 2 huge breasts (let's see if that makes it past the filter haha) & the spiral ham on Thursday. I do a big buffet, nobody goes home hangry.

By the time the last dish is put away, my steelers will be stuffing it to somebody @ 8 pm EST I hope.

 

[Lynne G]

Sounds like our family Keisha. Family has been known to feed an army. We're 16 this year, and no ham for us, just turkey breasts, as no one will admit they like the dark meat.
Bet your house is smelling tasty. Hehe, your dog story. Seems one time my DH left his just cooked steak on the back of the counter top, and turned his back. Dog snatched that steak and ate it so fast, DH couldn't figure out where the steak went. Dog got the title of giraffe lips for that stealth move.

Morning Marcie! Hope your coffee is hot today too. Keisha, I'm assuming more than one coffee consumed this morning. LOL
