Something About Nothing ... #12

[Lynne G]

My DS had me watch Ride Along 2. Wasn't sure about it, but really liked it after I saw it. Some really funny, some not as funny, but overall good movie.

See Schumi, was a nice gift. Enjoy the wine.

Hi Klo! Yep, we now are expecting 17 to 23 inches. Brother has a snow blower, so we will keep him busy! Hope you get dug out fast. Have a great weekend!

Keisha, yeah, went shopping today, more to get out of the house. Busy and crowded parking lots. Right, we would not even make news with an inch or two of snow. Our friends in NC rarely put snow or all weather tires on their cars, and no one knows how to drive in snow. Kinda like Washington DC was like the other day. Rookies!

Goofy! Nice to see ya stop by. Hope you will enjoy your weekend!

Ok, enough typing on my iPad. Did I say I hate typing on it?

Guess I should make dinner now.

 

[schumigirl]

Yep, Lynne was a lovely gift knowing the reasoning behind it...........we are desperate to see Ride Along 2.......loved the first one........waiting to find it on this digi box..........love Kevin Hart......

Heading to bed soon...nearly midnight for us over here...........enjoyed the wine.........

Quick drive by.....

Hope all is well with everyone!

Just passed the 32 week mark and baby boy is going strong! Haven't picked out a name yet....we are really stumped!

Now we are bracing for the blizzard....hope we don't lose power! Good luck to all those who are in the line of fire here on the east coast!

Morning all.




Looking out my front door. Cannot open it due to the blowing snow.


Here's looking out the back:


Time to start shoveling, even though it is still snowing.


Oh, and a cup tea first.

 

[macraven]

Sorry but I can't compete in this years contest of snow ..........

But I can show pictures of past November snow fall and join in the reindeer games here
️

 

[Lynne G]

I am sure Mac! It is still snowing, so blizzard conditions for the next. Joy.

Kfish, such good news warms my heart. I wish you the best with the little guppie and bigger guppie, Christopher.

right now, i am back upstairs in my blue room.
i claimed this room when we moved into the new house.
it is a place where i keep my travel journals, disney and universal trinkets, parents' belongings, all my genealogy which was 15 boxes until i sorted through it, and my iMac.
bought a curio cabinet to show my disney/universal pretties, two book cases for geneology folders, another one for books and my St Louis Cardinal collection, a desk and cat toys.
yes, the cats always love to sleep in here in their little cubes i set up for them.

don't spend a lot of time upstairs as still trying to organize and set up the downstairs of the house.

you can tell where i am posting from based on the purple color for the text.
mostly been using the iphone or ipad when downstairs but not lengthy at all when i post from them.
fat fingers on a little screen is not my strong point.

have so much catching up to do so if i over look you and your comments, it is not intentional.

now, where to start....
weather, i feel your pain for those with snow and cold.
i lived in it for years and hope never to be in it again.
we did get a tad of dusting here and the temps are below normal but that's okay.
no snow equipment for the city, or limited trucks here which makes most stay in with the dusting.
will have to get used to that.......

nice to hear Kfish is having another boy.
baby names are fun to think about.
i got stuck on the second one so i just gave him the same second name as the first son.
well, after two more, scratched that pattern.......lol
wasn't it george foreman that named all his sons George?
i can remember when we had the baby lottery for her first one on delivery date.
i lost the contest and can't remember who the winner was......but i'm sure Kfish would know.

soon we will be having another guppy to add to our group.
not that long to go for her.

schumi is going to be our expert on what movie to watch for the weekends.
i was trying to make a list of the ones she said were great so i could check them out.
with our dish tv set up, i can never decide which movie i want to see so i end up watching the game show a lot.
so far, haven't seen repeats of family feud.....
late night tv does get boring....

Bluer family, hugs for the boy.
getting a visit to the er can be scary and getting stitches even scarier.
hope he is doing fine and in no pain.

oh, we have a wedding coming up this year with one of the homies.
i think Tink needs to get the bus set up and keisha should get Mr Keisha a map so he can drive the bus to the wedding.
now if anyone else has the cdl license, we could consider you also for the driver.

hope all are doing fine.
will catch up again here later.

 

[Lynne G]

Little one in our backyard. Snow was up to her knees.

 

[schumigirl]

Kfish.......glad everything's going ok.......can't wait to see pics of the new little Kfish.........Heard LI is being hit worse than most other places........hope where you are, you're all warm and cosy.

mac.......I've watched more movies in the last two weeks than I've watched in months........these android boxes are brilliant......every new movie you can think of........and millions more.......sports galore too.......watched Strangers on a Train today........love that movie.........you know I won't go to the cinema, my idea of hell.......lol......so this is perfect for us.

Lynne....looks cold.

We are having a mild spell right now.......weird after the icy blast we've been having last few weeks. Not complaining........raining right now.

 

[keishashadow]

woke up to 5 inches of fluffy snow, topped with another inch throughout day of wet stuff. Odd, then the sun came out and saw the most beautiful sunset this evening.

so glad not among those 500 some cars who have been stuck on PA turnpike since yesterday afternoon out by the Allegheny tunnel i.e. middle of nowhere, on a ridge perched on a mountain.

lynne - hand daughter a shovel while she's out there lol.

couldn't talk family into my broth, tried to order pizza and told delivery suspended...that's when you know it's bad out. Poor babies had to flip to see who would 'fly'.

mac - yes, George did bestow his good name upon his sons. Least he wouldn't get the stink eye from them calling by another kid's name, of which i am prone to do for some reason. good to see purple glow eminating from the blue room. Careful with the cats, they may just claim it for their own lair

i caved & called DirecTv to add Starz just for the next season of Black Sails (yes, i am addicted to it at this point). They offered it free for three months.Maybe i'll get lucky when time to add HBO in April for Game of Thrones

 

[macraven]

I did that with four sons
Used one name at times which was a sign to them I was very unhappy with one of them

Did see that horror on the turnpike
Goodness that was awful
Kentucky having big problems on I 75 still
We are okay here

 

[macraven]

When we moved in the first thing we called to set up was Internet and tv

Went with dish due to the package
You guessed it...... All the sports channels

 

[Lynne G]

My DS would be happy to watch sports with ya, Mac. We still do not have cable.

Hope all are having a good night.

 

[macraven]

Well he would be welcome to come on over but I watch the Bulls games for these months. And all Chicago or St Louis teams

Have to get used to the teams in the South

 

[damo]

Any homies going to RPR soon? There has been a report that the ticket kiosk is no longer there and I was hoping someone here could check that out. @Bluer101 @Mrs bluer101

I would imagine that if it is no longer at RPR, it isn't in any of the hotel kiosks. It would be helpful if someone could confirm this.

 

[Lynne G]

Darn drifts and more than 18 inches more snow. Have to dig out the doors and car again. More pictures to come. We are sunny, though still below freezing. Winds still 35mph. I love the snow when the sun is shining.
What's that? Neighbor's snow blower is out. Time to look desperate and grab a shovel. Later all!

I noticed you were posting on that thread about it

I suggest that they call the hotel directly to ask then call again so if they get the same answer twice, it would be correct
Or send the hotel an email if they have changed the system w/kiosks

Haven't read here of any homies going in the next week to rpr

Damo have you tried the other sites you are on?
I would think they would have mentioned it by now

I'll try to call someone I know today and see what I can find out

 

[Lynne G]

Hehe, time for the kids to shovel. DS actually cleaned my car off. Guess I cook up some brunch.

Enjoy your Sunday homies!

And Damo, I really wish I could do the research for you. Hopefully the Bluers or other like Tink or Kevin.

 

[macraven]

Now I really feel like the red headed step child as I didn't get snow

So, I'll just enjoy Lynne's pics of it

Me too..........we have 56f today!!! Dull and miserable though......no sunshine here.........hoping my family on LI are doing ok with what they have been dealt with weather wise.........friends in Orlando are complaining it's so cold!


Got a gammon/ham joint in oven cooking away.......plain old mash and veg with it tonight..........DS is studying, DH is preparing a power point thingy for big meeting tomorrow.......house is quiet. So, I'm sat watching a rather poor Midsomer Murder episode while clutching iPad! Trying not to disturb anyone.......lol........
