Something About Nothing ... #12

[Monykalyn]

zHoly crow batman! do I have a lot to catch up on!
Oh and sorry Mac-I just blew up your email

A good team helps to bring a diverse city together. I have a FB friend from South America who moved to NYC, then was reluctantly transferred to Nashville. despite knowing squat re hockey she enjoys hanging out in the sports bars/watching the games and says she was surprised how much she likes the city.

Love love a good sports rivalry!
Good sports fans from any city are a ton of fun! This coming from a diehard Bball Cardinals fan that has attended games in other cities. True love of the sport itself always shines through.

Korean places have been known to serve dog.

ahhh yeah. DH old fraternity had a great Korean place down a block from them. Never any strays around. The place was shut down a few years later. Draw your own conclusions...

Soccer ends this month, then calm July, then soccer takes up in gusto in August. Yay! 4th of July trip. How nice is that! What a great time to visit the mouse.

Wish we had slower summer schedule-DS has soccer clinic (thankfully just once a week), middle has 2 days of band camp every other week, end of july and first full week of august is mandatory. Plus she is in PE summer school 8-11 until July. Oldest has summer school (physics and calc 2) M-th 8-4. Bonus dtr has work (2 different jobs). DH is off for the summer but has conventions and summer meetings starting week after 4th of July.
I just printed my schedule through September. OMG. Summer is gone.

Good evening homies
Hope everyone is well but as for me not so good cause DW is still having episodes of being disoriented but at the same time she is doing well enough not to be hospitalized agian and seems like the medication she was put on isn't helping her anymore.
So it looks like I may have to cancel our trip to the dark side

Hope she is doing better now! Vacations can be rescheduled, and something to look forward to. I know this has to be tough for you guys...

BC is lovely, SSR...well, it's always nice to still find rooms available there when I'm booking a last minute trip.

LOVED BC 2 years ago-but got amazing rate. And we have studio rented at SSR for August? Hoping proximity to DS is enough to make up for shortcomings?

Orbitz also have the discount codes that help the cause too

Just booked CSR for first part of August trip through orbitz this am. Have to call them though to get the reservation number to link in MDE-had to explain to the dude in customer service how this worked LOL. It is always a chuckle when I can teach someone a part of their job. Bonus is I booked all our FP+ for 2nd part of split stay today (FP+ window otherwise didn't open until Saturday). Middle is very excited about Flight of Passage.

I will admit SSR was better than i had expected

yay!

BC/YC SAB pool is amazing. It's difficult to book there.

Stormalong Bay is amazing. We spent an entire day just hanging poolside. I hear HH now has Sunken Treasure back on drink menu due to so many of us asking for it...

They have tweaked the Butterbeer recipe since the soft opening of Hogsmeade. I did not like it then butterscotch flavor was very strong. Have not tried it since until this trip

I have an amazing "adult" version of this

Monyk are your chicken babies liking their new home (coup)?

They are great! New coop is amazing. Pecking order among the hens is brutal-tough to watch. It is what it is though. All is well though. My baby just hopped up the stairs and is sitting on me right now on as I enjoy beautiful weather on the deck.

They're about 15 minutes south/west of the airport (I'm not sure if more south or west).

STL is very confusing with "west county, south county" etc. The metro is nice and reliable though.

My 50th Birthday present is a trip to New York!! So thrilled to be going back there again for the 4th time, and my husband hasn't been to New York so I`m very excited to show him the City I love so much...

WOW! What an awesome way to celebrate!!!!!

Have a great day all, stay hydrated.

Does cranberry juice count (with vodka and triple sec)?

Have 2 of the Fuel Rods from Disney, a super-powerful one

Are these worth it? we have a few different kinds of rechargable packs

. My last phone had one leg in the grave and the other on a banana peel

This is how my geek DH and oldest DD describe my tech!

going to celebrate Christmas with the mouse there this year.

What are your dates? We have to pick DD up by 1/6/18...trying to convince DH that NYE in Epcot just us is our Christmas present!

The cleaners press shirts

One blood clot not visible and that vein is now 100% open and clear

sooo some good news?? Argh that stubborn 2nd clot!

Off tomorrow-oil change for the truck, than walk/exercise scheduled with former boss who is also a good friend (haven't been able to catch up for a few weeks). Then it is 3rd friday (doesn't matter if it is actual 3rd friday of month or not-just our "code" to get together) with the usual gang, and night out listening to band celebrating a bday with a Sertoma Sister. Saturday will be spend recuperating .

Scheduled FP for August trip today. It is why I am out of vodka. Uni has it done right-stay on site, no worries!
Sweet and sour chicken for dinner tonight. Leftovers scheduled until Sunday-then it is Brisket and all the sides. Miss Schumi's meal descriptions! Sorry your trip is done, but selfishly glad I get to read (hopefully) of your wonderful dinners and desserts you plan!

 

[Lynne G]

MonyK our dates are 21 to 28 mouse and 28 to 31 harry. FQ then RPR. Other than a mouse xmas party last year, never been in any of the mouse or harry parks only Busch ones for the holidays.

 

[goNDmay9]

Wow! Y'all have been a BUNCH of biziee bunnies!

Quick fly-by to send prayers to KY07's wifey. Take good care of her!

Looks like my son and I are gonna take the "quick" trip into the belly of the inferno...errr Orlando in the summer. Got AP rate of $90 for 4 nts at AS Sports, we've stayed there once and it did the job. Of course, I'll be watching for a "deal" to op up at POR or FQ, (boats would be nice, since he wants to go to Disney Quest on June 3, July 1 & 2...Wants to close them down!) Might hafta sneak over to Minionville for a day or two also...Hate to not use those APs!

Everybody get well that's ill...and get Happy that's sad. Good grammer, Me knows.

Robert

Let us know if you end up at DQ. We are definitely planning on closing her down. So many great memories.

 

[goNDmay9]

First of all. Iron?? What's that?? I never use ours. I need to see if I can send you all this battle I posted on Instagram between a Bow and myself. Let's just say I found the iron and the starch and I won!

@Monykalyn what is this Sunken Treasure you speak of? And an adult version of butterbeer? Do tell!

@macraven so excited to hear the update on clot 1! Clot 2 is already on its way out! sending mixie dust your way (mummy + pixie = mixie) I'm an analyst. We love all facets of you BTW. drJ And Mr H!! You should have seen me Pre-Recital on Sunday. PS: have you ever watched house of cards on Netflix?

@schumigirl gleaming?? Please send me your secrets!

 

[schumigirl]

MonyK........thanks! Over the moon doesn't begin to describe how we feel...... Oh don't run out of vodka.....lol......love it with cranberry juice and various other additions.........love a cocktail night!!! Or a wine night......I'm not biased against one or the other......



Feel so tired this morning. Definitely need a couple of strong black coffees to wake me up.........

But sun is shining.......

 

[buckeev]

Macster...Sure hoping you get all them 2000 parts playing nice with each other!

Good luck with a WDW deal in the middle of summer! POFQ is my favorite resort.

We've actually snagged several pretty good deals during some peak times over the last few years. Gotta check the website frequently though! We're trying to be a little more "thrifty" with our trips, but we (read: I) suffer from OrlandoFiscalItis.

Let us know if you end up at DQ. We are definitely planning on closing her down. So many great memories.

Will Do! I'm trying to talk my 16 y/o daughter into going with Gage and I. I'll lose my mind if I hafta spend 3 days in DQ. There are SOOO many eatin' (and-unfortunately-shopping) spots at Disney Springs...Not good for that OrlandoFiscalItis...

 

[Lynne G]

Friday! Alert, Friday. Yay! Ah, little one is still not a morning person. Get moving, that means faster than you have been doing for the last hour. Yay! Older one has agreed to do some errands on the free day.

Gotta go, no late to school.

 

[Metro West]

Woke up this morning to cool temps and NO rain! WOO HOO! Unfortunately it won't last...high rain chances for the next 10 days. So if you're coming to Orlando be prepared.

 

[Robo56]

Morning everyone .





Trying to get the old body moving this morning. Coffee in hand.

Mac hang in there. Praying that other clot dissolves soon

Congratulations Schumi on your extended trip plans. What a nice surprise from hubby for trip to New York. He is a thoughtful guy.

Looking over ticket options for HHN that will work for me during the time I'am there. Will ponder a few more days before I decide on what will work for me during the time I'am there.

 

[pcstang]

You're a puddy cat, even with the pain a classy broad, not sure u have a mr Hyde inside - you

Lol Initially used another adjective in front of cat that was promptly censored, who knew?

LOL!!!

What are your dates? Really sorry we missed you last visit.

 

[kohlby]

Happy Friday y'all!

I have way too much to catch up on but wanted to say hi!

I see schumi has a new quote under her name. I'll have to see what the story behind that one is!

Mac- glad to hear that the clots are improving. Did they have any trouble getting the coumadin dose correct? That can be a very tricky thing.

 

[Chuckers]

I think I've lost my mind... I could have sworn I posted something and now I can't find it.

 

[keishashadow]

I forgot the joys of sitting on bleechers for practice. 3 hours & note to self to come early to get the top row w/the back on it. At least it's indoor in a gym even if non AC, over by noon, how hot can it possibly get in a metal warehouse?

Before i forget, MCO disney store stopped selling those battery packs arrrgh. Noticed they put the machines in our local airport, think they're the same one. Basic, small sort but if i can exchange it in the parks will be helpful for us to share. I bring a monster sized one and a few smaller. Would like to be worry-free when traveling. Galls me those who crow when they cruise they put their phones in the cabin safe & pull them out a week or so later. Must be nice to be so footloose & fancy free lol. being PoA for mom in nursing home & other family members with serious medical conditions, i need to be reachable. Technology is a good thing IMO

We apparantly are in the distinct minority in dubbing pandora a giant snooze. Interested to see in GD likes it better than we did upcoming trip. She has never heard of Avatar. I did a horrible job trying to describe the plot haha.

Cranberry juice just screams for vodka.

 

[Robo56]

What are your dates? Really sorry we missed you last visit.

If all goes as planned should be 10-1 to 10-10.

 

[Robo56]

I think I've lost my mind... I could have sworn I posted something and now I can't find it.

Dis has been acting weird for a couple of months. Your mind is ok. Have a great trip to see your sis. So nice of her to make you a lovely meal.

Tink thanks for the welcome back.

 

[Lynne G]

A nice day after all.

It is the what is for dinner day.

Steak maybe.

Yay! Robo, another October travelor.

A weekend with no soccer. Little one and I are going to watch pirates instead.

Have a great Friday night homies.

 

[Robo56]

Yay! Robo, another October travelor

Was hoping to get to say howdy to you too in person Lynne. What are your dates for Universal? I remember last year they had a date thread for everyone who wanted to post it.

[macraven]

Long day and will play ketchup here later tonight
