Something About Nothing ... #12

[Monykalyn]

Morning! Got the baby chicks yesterday-2 of them. The diva breed Wyandotte already has us trained-she cries loudly to be held. The buff Orphington is much mellower.College DD slept on kitchen floor last night as they were cheeping loudly when she came home ~1:30 am. She slept with her hand in brooder so they could sleep on it. Both babies sleeping on me currently.The dog checks on them alot too-he is so funny and protective. Kids named the Wyandotte Malificent (Mal) and the buff Aurora (rory).

I had a health check last week and was told that I have high blood pressure too...I feel for your DH...I have bad teeth too so maybe the two are related.

yep- gum disease and heart disease are connected along with genetic component to both. Taking care of the bad teeth(inflammation) will help quite a bit with heart issues and to some extent-high blood pressure.

Hey all!

Anybody else pick the Bucky beavers over Villanova? Lol too bad majority of my other pics stunk

Brood coming for pasta dinner. Started red sauce/meatballs yesterday. Alfredo sauce today. Brownies & a banana split pie yet to whip up. GD staying over, that kid gets more days off school since no snow days this year!

So, guess what. I'm taking the plunge. I'm doing HHN17. YIKES.
The boyfriend loves HHN so I told him I would try it. We're going to go ON my birthday under the conditions that we also get to do the parks on the other days. He usually just goes for HHN and that's it. And of COURSE under the condition that we stay onsite! (DUH) He's never done all that so I'm excited to bring him into our luxurious world of hassle free enjoyment.

I think I'm going to weasel my way into the parks in may. He's got a wedding he's in on a may weekend and is going down on Thursday. His parents are flying in Friday AM and I think I'm going to grab them and take them to the parks with me while the boy is doing his best man duties. Then I think I'm going to stay an extra day after the wedding and go into the parks solo unless he doesn't have to report to work. Great way to get into the parks. Finances are a little tight right now so I don't have extra to spend on a full out universal vacay. My sister and I are going to disney first week of May though. That's where all the moo-la is going.

Anyways, I have a question for you vets. My best friend is completely head over heels for his girl and is making plans for the future. She graduates next year, so he doesn't want to do it yet, but is planning on popping the big question next winter/spring(EDIT*** At disney!). He's thinking January or March. I'm partial to March, however, it's whatever her class schedule will allow. He would like to stay onsite, but will have a budget to deal with so he's trying to get free dining deals etc if he can. Question 1) he's saying it wont let him book past December, so, when does that usually open up? Thought it was a year in advance.
2)Is there a set schedule to when they usually do dining deals etc? They are not and will not be APH and are not FL residents. I think they're both SC now actually. He might still be GA.

Thanks in advance for any help! He's been asking me for months and I haven't had much spare time to research for him. Was hoping you guys would know as I never stay on site there.

Hope everyone is doing well! Things are pretty great on this end. Business could be better, but personal is going fantastic. Glad to see many familiar names as I scroll through.

People stop mowing their lawns? I've been mowing every 2 weeks instead of 1 since "winter" started, but that's about it.

Google free dining dates past years, may see pattern. Beginning of jan/MLK weeks crowded, likely no deals. March spring break mid month, most of it busy.

Tech says wait, cats were not to eat after 10 last night..


How stupid can a man be when he has been told do not feed the cats in the morning......

.....

Go ask Alice, when she's 10 feet tall...

Nice Schumi. Hope your Wednesday is warmer and clear today. To see the sea, hope it looks lovely.

Well, narrow roads, snow from people clearing off their encased cars, odd parking places, and bitter cold. A lovely 21 to travel in, and a high now predicted to be 29, ooh I degree warmer than first thought. Frozen is the word of the day. But, thankfully, a rain soaked Sunday in the 40's will wash away most of the icy snow we got. And oddly, we are at least 1 and 1/2 hours drive from the shore, but sea gulls are happily squawking in the parking lot. Do they like salt brine?

And since today is Wednesday, Keisha needs that camel (hump day) reminder:

ha ha. yea, here's a real camel:

okay, another ha ha:

can you tell, I'm thinking of warmer weather? Le sigh, not even out of the 30's until Sunday.

Well, large cup of coffee drank, now looking for tea. Was so nice, with little one delayed, and me too, had breakfast out with little one, dropped her off and made my way in less time than I thought. Happy. And so is older one. Since he's on Spring break, let him sleep in. He'll retrieve the little one though, so I'm happy he's being a cooperative big brother.

Later all, it's Wednesday, and Friday get slowly in to sight.

LMAO!!!

I used to golf, I really enjoyed it...sometimes. I'm more of a NASCAR and drag racing guy but I like all racing!

I was more of the 4th person in family's foursome vs a golfer lol. My clubs have been gathering dust for years. No idea if the mr will want to pick it back up when he eventually retires and my services will be required again to book a tee time, guess they will continue to take up space in the garage.

Morning everyone . Sun shining and a nice breeze out of the west. Temps supposed to be 79. I will take that.

Been out to the market already this morning.....LOL....Went by Publix for Italian sub for lunch today.

Now everyone else will need to get their subs

MonyK
Hope the next chick you adopt will be named Mac

 

[Monykalyn]

ignore the squished double neck (trying to keep them from climbing) lil monsters are wriggly.

 

[macraven]

Adorable!

Here is little one, with her friends. All the dresses are a dark blue, not black.

So cute chicks. Love how they like to be cuddled.

Well, little one is back to her old self. Curse words flying around toward me and older one. Ah, family time.

Steak on the grill tonight. That clear blue sky just screams use the grill.

 

[Robo56]

Cute chicks monykalyn

Lynne...nice picture of your daughter and her friends.

Tell your daughter to fall at your knees and give thanks that you are her mom....LOL....my son stood 6'4" when he was 13 and he new better than to curse in front of me or his dad. The threat of a bar of soap in the mouth was good enough for him.

He brought one of his friends over for dinner and his friend decided to let the F-bomb fly at our dinner table. My son looked at him and said " man do not do that again. Trust me my mom is shorter than us, but you will be burping bubbles if you do that again". We all had a good laugh and his friend apologized.

Steak sounds yummy

 

[macraven]

What a beautiful pic of little and friends!


I gave up on sons cursing
It was 4 against 1

So all I did was stop handing out money then to them

They learned quickly
Or at least they were in the other room and could not understand who said what....

 

[agavegirl1]

Last day of winter! But likely not where I live.... I am looking forward to better weather ahead.

 

[macraven]

How is the weather in Kenosha and Milwaukee area this week going to be?

 

[macraven]

Just checking to see if the "new" night owl is still up


Talking to you Lynne...

Yep, I would never have cursed at my mother.....tiny as she is I would have had my mouth washed out too!! Burping bubbles.......that's funny......My son has never uttered a curse word in front of me either........in a jokey way some of the softer words of course........but not cursing and certainly not at me, none of his friends ever have either........wow, your son was 6`4 at 13!!!!! Bet you were constantly buying new clothes while he was growing........

Last day of winter! But likely not where I live.... I am looking forward to better weather ahead.

Yep, supposed to be spring here today.......it`s cold. And grey..........


Hoping my aunt has a wonderful 100th Birthday today.........she had a big celebration yesterday, today is a smallish family gathering and local paper want a picture......just spoke to her on the phone and she loved the gifts we sent, so I`m happy.

Housework and catching up again today..........had lovely visit with friends last night.......they are already wanting to make plans for my birthday and anniversary!!!!! Far too early........some of the suggestions were just weird.......

It`s Monday.......

Morning all!
Schumi, glad your aunt enjoyed her party and gift...wow 100!

Rather quiet here today (Mondays always seem that way though ) Lots of laundry to do today, and some baking! Happy Monday all!

 

[Chuckers]

Happy Monday All! Hope the week brings you all good things!

My neighbors just got back from their first trip to Hogwarts and they brought me a chocolate frog!!!

No Mac, was in bed after the news. Was tired. But, will be a member before the end of this week.

It is the first day of Spring! So happy, that means warmer weather. Yeah right, traveled in 34 degrees this morning. But, that sunrise, I was like:

but, of course, from the warmth of my car's heater and heated seat. LOL

need another funny as since it's Monday, can't have enough.

and just think:

and a big Happy Birthday to Schumi's Aunt.

What a wonderful celebration, times 2. Lovely that the paper wants a picture of her.

Oh, and housework is overrated. LOL Hope you are having a nice afternoon Schumi.


With that, I need a XL cup of tea. Off to find a tea bag.

Have a great first day of Spring homies. Good morning!

 

[tink1957]

Good morning

Just popped in to wish you all a belated happy weekend before I leave for work...sometimes I miss having weekends off, but I get to look at flowers all day instead of a computer screen so it's not a bad tradeoff

Happy 100th to Caroles aunt wow that's a lot of candles...I'll bet she has some wonderful stories to tell.

Lynne...It's going to be 84 here tomorrow I thought that my weather app had accidentally switched to Orlando.

Happy Monday homies
