Something About Nothing ... #12

[schumigirl]

Feel better Charade.......awful when things don’t clear up but get worse.......and very odd sounding guy in pharmacy......

Squires have a great time........sounds like a lot of fun......

Pattyw........we have to have a high of 44f today, if we’re lucky........it is cold as the wind is coming straight in from the North Sea.........bliddy cold!!! Wind was wild all night....still is unfortunately.

Mac, glad you made it back home safely............


Monday again.........today is shopping for a new phone for me.......I hate the one I have right now........so will go have a look to see what’s on offer......

DH wants to buy his new camera........then this afternoon empty out the two rooms that are being redone next few days........dreading the mess.....but will be glad to see the work done again.

And having a clear out of clothes........going to go through all closets and drawers and get rid of anything that is no use anymore...........

10 more sleeps...........

Charade, hope you are feeling well.

Squirlz, hope you have fun with all those mini coopers. Putting some miles on your car.

Schumi, busy day for you. New phone, new camera, and Spring cleaning, and a decade in days countdown. That certainly deserves a Wahoo! Hope your lunch is lush, and your afternoon of cleaning out is quick.

That's right, a Monday. The start of the work week for most homies, and it's a lovely 45 right now. But the warm is coming. We're playing the rising temps, and I hope it's not a sliding down thermometer. Today's high, in the 60's, tomorrow, in the 70's, Wednesday through Friday, stuck in the 80's, with Friday trying to tickle 90. Bring it on! The flip flops and shorts (even with my pasty white legs) are ready. Oh, and fashionista sunglasses. Oh yeah.


and it will be sunny hopefully soon, so you may see this:

he he.



So,

homies. Make it a Monday much happiness day.


I need tea, late homies.

... this has been a dogcentric post.

 

[pattyw]

Happy Monday!

Lynne- Here's one to complement the dog pics!


Schumi- We just did our closet clearing a few weeks ago. It's amazing how many clothes we accumulate! Then when we're ready to pack for vacation, there's not much we want to pack!

And in honor of Buddy the squirrel-

I've been thinking about that little one all weekend!

 

[Lynne G]

Well, that lunchtime walk was cool. Not like nice. Glad I had my winter coat, zipped up. And my hair! Bad hair alert. Blustery is what the noon time weather report is. Seems the 53 out temp, with wind chill, is in the 40's.

Patty, I hope you had a good amount of hot coffee today. Cute pictures.

Mac, hope you are home safely, and had a fabulous anniversary trip with the Mr.

I guess Schumi's all worn out from shopping, moving out stuff, and clearing closets. Hope you are enjoying a glass of wine before or after dinner. Eh, before and after dinner. LOL

It's the tea for me, and happy that's it is actually nice inside.

Older one's last classes are this week, and next. I think he only has 1 final. Time is flying. 2 yeas of college almost done.

 

[Chuckers]

Yup it is the day

Headed to the tour bus now


And thank all the homies for their posts to me this weeki You all!

Happy belated anniversary!!!

I spoke with the rehab lady, Jean, and Buddy is doing very well. In one night he went from 92 grams to 100 grams. She says he's still on the small side, but getting better. I am going to actually go see him on Wednesday after work. It was truly amazing to be holding such a tiny, fragile life and knowing that I was helping him really made my day. She says he's going to fit in well with two other squirrels she currently has that are about his age/size.

 

[Lynne G]

So nice of you Chuckers, and now that squirrel has a chance to be the wild animal he deserves. Pictures of it again, are always good to see. Hope you are enjoying some coffee too, on this gray, cloudy, windy Monday.

So happy to hear this!! Please tell Jean- the rehab lady that she's an angel (as you are too!!)! and get more pictures!

Lynne- time for another cup of coffee!! Need my afternoon energy boost!

I’m home and put the ac on
79 today and in the 80’s tomorrow and this week


Thanks for the anniversary good wishes homies

Catching up on mail and kitty hugs

 

[Lynne G]

But Luna was happy to see ya, Mac. Blue too. Glad to hear you are home, and settling back in.

No AC needed yet. I am liking the more green I am finally seeing.

Quiet Monday night. That is fine with me. Sixers game, so maybe that will be on the tube, have to see if older one is done with his game playing.

Ooh, that was a noisy helicopter overhead. Shoo.

 

[agavegirl1]

Hello everyone.

Chuckers, I am so happy to hear Buddy is doing well.

Mac, missed the opportunity to wish you happy anniversary. We were up at the lake without internet.

Schumi, decluttering is my next assignment and I am being lazy.

Charade, I hope you feel better soon.

Should have used the AC today. Temp got to 83F and I foolishly had the system in the "off" position.

Lynn, hope Hubby feels better. The prom picture is lovely. I am also fond of purple. I had leftover pizza for breakfast.

Thanks for the Minion Love Robo...I just love them.

Will try to keep up this week a little better.

I have an appointment with a neurosurgeon on Thursday. No emergency, just a consult per my regular sports medicine guy.

 

[Charade67]

I don’t know if I should say good evening or good morning. It’s after midnight and I should be asleep. I got home around 4:00 today, sat down in my recliner, and the next thing I know it was 6:00.

I didn’t get to see the doctor today, but have an appointment tomorrow morning. I seem to have stopped wheezing, but still have an annoying cough.

Speaking of annoying, this morning we got 5 phone calls in less than an hour that I think were from collection agencies. They were looking for a Robert (my very common last name). We don’t know of any Roberts in the family. Four of the calls came from an 843 area code which is the part of South Carolina that dh is from. The fifth call came from an 803 area code which is the part of SC where my mom lives. Four of the calls came before 8:00. I think by law telemarketers and collection agencies are not supposed to call before 8:00.

Schumi - I need to swap out my winter and summer clothes. Should probably also do some closet cleaning while I’m at it. `

Chuckers - Glad to hear that buddy is doing well.

Hello Lynne, Patty, Macraven, agavegirl, and everyone else.

I should probably try to get some sleep.

 

[agavegirl1]

Well Charade, if it's any consolation, I get collection calls for my stepson from 10 years ago still.

[schumigirl]

Charade....hope you are doing better today. It sucks being ill......and not being able to sleep doesn't help.....a good night`s sleep does help on occasion, but sounds like you need checked out properly..........

Agave.......I was incredibly pleased with myself yesterday.........had the best closet clear out I`ve had since the last one....... the charity store near us is getting two large bags of clothes, shoes and bits and pieces.........now I have a load of space to fill in closets and drawers.........



Did get new phone after all.......another Samsung which I`ve been happy with for a while......the latest one has an amazing camera by all accounts.......

Didn't get our new Camera as it`s so new they didn't have it in store yet......so picking it up tomorrow.

Got our workmen here doing out both utilty and laundry room.......not as much mess as I thought......all cabinets worktops and shelves are out without all the dust expected......will take them all day today and tomorrow. Bacon sandwiches on order for them soon and copious amounts of tea.........

Have a great Tuesday........


9 MORE SLEEPS TILL.....................

 

[Lynne G]

Charade, I hope the doctor finds out why you are still coughing, and can give you some help. I hope you get a better night's sleep tonight. Yeah, they are not to call late, Charade. You can report them. Since our phone now says who it is, or the phone number, we rarely pick up with a name or number we don't recognize. I sometimes have to laugh, as the phone announcer doesn't always pronounce names that I can understand. I hope they stop calling you.

What a nice morning. Out the door, and a beautiful white moon in one horizon, and a ball of yellow very low on the horizon. A perfect Spring day, with an afternoon high of 75. Oh yeah, and tomorrow, we can welcome a burst of summer temps. YAY!

Schumi -sounds like you were industrious yesterday. Bacon, yum. Hope you have a lovely afternoon.

Agavegirl, that's good the appointment on Thursday is not for an emergency. I hope you are feeling good now. Glad you could get away to the Lake. It's good to relax, away from all, sometimes.

Mac, now that you're home again, the cats need their breakfast. Good Morning.

Robo, hope you are feeling well today. May your coffee be plentiful.

Yes, that's right it is May today. Here is hoping it's warmer than April was.


and yes, it is a Tuesday, so that means

Yep, tacos. A prelude to Cinco de Mayo.

So have a taco or two to talk about, and enjoy this sunny Tuesday start to the month of May. The month that Schumi gets to write another trip report. Wahoo for that.

Tea, so later homies.

 

[Robo56]

Charade get well soon.

Chuckers great to hear that buddy is thriving at the squirrel rescue center.

Agavegirl1 hope you are continuing to heal and your visit with the Neurosurgeon goes well.

Schumi always Nice to clean out the closets for sure. Your upcoming trip is getting close.

22 sleeps for me and the grandchildren. We are really looking forward to our trip to Universal.

Lynne the coffee is hot and good this morning thank you. Hope your tea is yummy.

 

[pattyw]

Good afternoon all!!

Mac- Welcome Home!
Schumi- -glad the construction is moving along with not too much of a mess!
Lynne- Nice temps here today too!! 70 Yay!!
Charade- sorry about those annoying phone calls! I have apps that block most telemarketers but some get through anyway! Hope your all better soon!

Eating lunch at my desk- microwave mac &cheese (how boring!) But 2 more days until Orlando

 

[macraven]

Now is that two more sleeps or one more wake up before you leave

No one sleeps much the night before you leave for Orlando


I’m out running errands
Still have to hit the grocery store or it will be Taco Bell for the second night

 

[Squirlz]

Our home for the week. Yeah, we didn't drive a MINI. The Cadillac is more comfortable and everyone loves it.
