Something About Nothing ... #12

where are all the night owls tonight?

 

[schumigirl]

Congratulations to you and your daughter. My sister was accepted to Florida State and enrolled for the fall. Proud brother and that's my school. Big brother is right around the corner so I can "help" her out if an issue arises!

Congrats to your sister!! My daughter was accepted to Flagler College! Funny that we upgraded our tickets to APs on vacation and came home to the acceptance package

Congrats to both family members!!! Always nice to celebrate...........

Lynne, glad the winds have died down for you. Family is on mend, thanks......always a worry. (I quoted you not sure why it didn't show up)

where are all the night owls tonight?

Well, morning owl here..........

Should still be sleeping.........DH just left, and it's DS day off so I don't need to get up......but, I'm awake anyway...........can't get back to sleep......DS just got up too......he's not one for sleeeping late, gets up at same time whether he's working or not. I'd still be sleeping given the choice........lol........



Got my friend who comes from NY coming for lunch today........flying visit, but always nice to see her........

WD was better, definitely better than first half of season. Was nice to see a smile last night..........

Where's Vicki............

 

[pcstang]

I'm here! Night owl present.

 

[schumigirl]

No bacon for us this morning pc........boring old yoghurt and fruit here on offer.........

Come back Saturday and DH will be grilling the bacon..........pancakes too........

Can't sleep?

 

[pcstang]

No bacon? That's blasphemy! Going to bed soon. I'm just a night owl, hate mornings. Great to hear the siblings are on the mend. I think I'm in trouble now, just found the movie "A Few Good Men" with jack Nicholas on demand.

 

[schumigirl]

Lol.......I know!! Banana anyone no, maybe not..........

Have a good sleep........

I might as well get up...........

 

[Lynne G]

Yes it is, and a Tuesday too. No night owl for me. Was up early, apparently DH read 3:30 as 4:30. I've been awake for hours. LOL

Well, the saying is red sails at night is a sailor's delight, red sails in the morning is a sailor's warning. Well, the sunrise was a deep to lighter pink this morning. Beautiful color. Thankfully, though 28 degrees, the wet stuff will be north and south of us. Just a cloudy day, with less wind. No matter though, they're saying the wind will pick up again by the end of the week. Bad hair day alert.

Happy Anniversary to the homies who got married today.

Hey, TinyD's alive and working her butt off again. Spring break is in March for the older one. I doubt he's going anywhere. He's a poor college kid.
Hope you get away for a very long week end next month. Vacations are important.

With that, PC's probably sleeping, or awake with the kids heading off to school.

 

[schumigirl]

Janet and your Mister..........Have a wonderful 25th Anniversary..........many more too!!!


Lunch went well......Soup and challah were lovely, first time I had made that bread for her.......had some smoked salmon too or as she calls it lox. Nice. And always lovely spending time with her as she`s so busy!

Although my husband is the most romantic guy on the planet, the one day we don't do anything like that is Valentine`s Day, no flowers, no meals out, no cuddly bunnies............hate the fake hype of romance. Bleurgh.......I`m glad he`s like that the rest of the year without waiting for the hyped up commercialisation of Valentine`s Day.

But, if you are celebrating it have fun......

 

[macraven]

Happy Tuesday homies and VD

We don't celebrate today either


I gave up on pc this morning and got hooked on Csi Miami
Found out law and order has a marathon today

That show was on for 20 seasons and watched it one time and said bleh...

Now it is my go to show when insomnia hits

Happy anniversary to Janet today!
Hope you got the gummy bears

Lynne 's weather still stinks

And that is all I know so far

Happy Valentines Day comrades!

25 legal years for us. We had agreed not to buy each other anything. I went for the 5# of gummie bears (some may go swimming in a bottle of vodka), 3# of York Peppermint Patties and 2 # of cashews. What would I do without Amazon?

DH gave a smooch Sunday before heading out to work for afternoon shift and said to book another cruise for our 26th next year. Have been up to my ears since browsing lol

You know you are old married couple when the leftover fried chicken in the fridge may just trump going out for lunch and fighting the crowds.

More used as a Scottish term Lynne for weather........old Orkney Scots word. Relatives in Ireland use the word Hooley more as a party term.


It's still wild here today, but not as bad........least we saw the sun today for a while.

Another hour or so till dinner when DS gets in from work just after 6........spiced chicken, potato wedges (sweet potato for me) and a selection of roasted veg........I'm hungry tonight! Just had a black coffee to take the edge off.......trying not to nibble before dinner..........

WD for us tonight.......macraven has convinced me to give it another try, got fed up with the storyline before the break.........

Can smell the chicken cooking........delish!!!

Making matzo ball soup for a friend who is coming for lunch tomorrow........never made it before and it's her favourite dish ever........doubt I'll make it as good as her mum does though.......

"Orkney Scots" is that the same as ornery Scots lol

Enjoy your visit with your friend. Have a feeling everything that comes out of your kitchen is a winner

Thanks! We plan to be there more than her 9 days of passes she will get LOL-already talking august, thanksgiving and christmas, -if we get AP then prob next spring too. Condo exchange available (DH already checked )

Thanks!

Congrats, enjoy the magic! Lol Yes, those freebie tix will go fast.

You know its been a day when you pull up after work and all of your deck chairs are in the yard. Wind was brutal today

My 2 seater swing (heavy) in backyard went airborne. So glad it didn't wind up in pool. Don't think it's salvageable. So many trees down, electric out in areas. We have an eagle nest here where there's a web cam. Sad to see the tree fall live. Another closer one still intact though.

Congrats to your sister!! My daughter was accepted to Flagler College! Funny that we upgraded our tickets to APs on vacation and came home to the acceptance package

Wonderful news! Do you think that'll be her choice?

I'm here! Night owl present.

You "young" hoot! Lol. Toying with the idea of upgrading to a King size bed. I started to casually look and retreated back home. OMG way too many options. At the risk of admitting it's been close to a decade since I bought a mattress, Whatever happened to a normal firm bed, no memory foam or pillow top? Can you share what brands/models might be good to check out?

Stearns and Foster. Almost all the beds have some amount of memory foam these days. Stay far, far away (see what I did there) from Simmons or Serta! PM me if you have specific questions or I'll give you my number and can walk you through the process. Happy 25 legal year anniversary!

Lol yes I did catchI always have bought Serta, force of habit, and those cute little sheep lol. Next trip will look for Stearns & Foster, thanks. Just so many choices, I'm putting more thought into this than last car I bought!

It can be daunting for sure. Don't let those devil sheep sway you! By the way, I've carried Serta and Simmons for years. What a nightmare! They got bought by the same venture capitalist company a few years ago and are complete junk now.

 

[Lynne G]

ooh thanks for the tip on matresses PC. We'll be searching for new one of these days too. Have to see who sells that brand. I have Serta ones too. Sheep fan apparently. LOL

If you decide to go with tempurpedic I can hook you up and drop ship it. That's what I have. I'll be happy to answer any questions for anybody. Stearns and Foster pillow tops are in PBR, RPR and SF. Not sure about hard rock and not in CB.

Thanks PC. I may very well take you up on that. We like a firm or harder mattress. I may even convince my DH to do a road trip. He has a truck. Either way, will call when I am ready.

 

[macraven]

Now if he delivers pizza and crown, I'm signing up

Been out of the house for 5 hours doing errands, banking, food shopping, drugstore, etc

Taking a break and about to start dinner

MrMac just told me he does not want the bacon wrapped pork loin for dinner as he is tired of it

Since it is already in the oven, I ignored his comments

 

[Lynne G]

Yeah, poor Mr. Mac. We ditched the pasta for boneless honey bbq wings and fried up some onion rings. Ok, we did have cucumbers and celery too. Ice cream and pie for dessert. Well, pie was appetizer. Yeah, I guess the lame Valentine dinner. Oh well, there is not much left.

What!!!! Bacon wrapped pork loin! I'm starving! You know I'm down for pizza and crown, too.

Don't hesitate, I've got 15 years in the business.
