Something About Nothing ... #12

[Lynne G]

That's sad Tink, about your friend. Hopefully there's a local women domestic help place she can use. We saw the movie yesterday. I'd say, it was good, though lagged in places, but great CGI of the dinos.

Morning Mac, Charade, and Tink.

AC is so cool, that my hair on my arms are standing up. I'm so blonde though, looks like I have furry skin.

Is it lunchtime yet? I am hoping outside is warmer. Should be, 80 by this afternoon.

Oh, and apparently, little one took my Starbucks card. I have the app on my phone, so saw it was used early this morning. Have to have a talking to. Guess someone needed coffee this morning.

 

[Monykalyn]

My first thought upon waking this am was "I need more weekend". Bright and sunny this am. Hens scolding for being late to let them out (NOT getting up at 600 am when starts getting light out-sorry cranky ladies).

When I was 43 I had a 10 year old.

I had a 8 almost 9 year old and 12 year old. Surprise baby makes me an older mom in the class for sure!

We had a friend stay over last night on our couch due to a bad domestic situation..

So sad for her situation but how kind of you.

ugh work, coffee for sure, and surprise! Someone brought in a couple boxes of Krispy Kremes this am. Good thing as I forgot breakfast too.

Well one company I contract with I am getting pretty close to dropping. Shame as it is my in town nursing homes. But lack of communication and feeling like a punishment for taking a vacation is not an environment I am happy with. Told there would be coverage (after begging) and come to this home today to find 21 new admissions that need to be assessed. Need to focus but I had to take a break as stuff is starting to run together.

43 for me meant last kid started school
But 4 months after that my mini “vacation” was over as I went back to work

Monyk is that a good or bad thing you may have to drop the in town nursing home?


Had a storm pass through and temps dropped
Who am I kidding
It will be humid tonight and hot again tomorrow

 

[Lynne G]

You need our weather guy, Mac. The three H’s, not your two. Hazy, Hot, and Humid. Starting Friday. Bring it on.

 

[Monykalyn]

Another nice day today-too bad it was inside working, then meeting.

Monyk is that a good or bad thing you may have to drop the in town nursing home?

Well I like not having to drive an hour for work, but I am frustrated on lack of communication and support from this company. Going to give another 6 months, then re-evaluate.

tired, may be an early night for me...

Happy Monday everyone!! We're in Ft. Lauderdale this morning! We had a nice two days in Orlando! We visited with Troy and had a nice time at HRH! We didn't even make it to the parks because of the storms on Saturday and Sunday. But we had a fabulous time! We enjoyed the club lounge, went to the Velvet lounge at HRH and Strong Water at SF and enjoyed the entertainers. You can have a great time at Universal and not even enter the parks!! We're busy cleaning Kyle's apartment today.

Had a nice dinner on the beach! Having some wine and going to bed early ! We are exhausted!!

Lynne & Charade- Hope your work days went ok!(for a Monday!!)

Tink- you are a blessing to your friend that you had stay with you!

Mac-Hope the heat & humidity aren't too oppressive! But hey, like we say in Buffalo- at least you don't have to shovel heat and humidity!

Back to apartment cleaning tomorrow!
Have a great evening all!!

 

[Charade67]

Good evening everyone. Nothing interesting to report today.

Sometimes I can remember my bad dreams and other times I don’t

When I have bad dreams I am sometimes able to recognize I am dreaming and have been able to wake myself up.

If it will be hot tomorrow, water park should be fun charade!

I just checked the forecast - high of 73 and rainy. Good thing most of the waterpark is indoors.

We had a friend stay over last night on our couch due to a bad domestic situation...wish we had room to let her stay longer until she can figure out what to do but we only have 2 bedrooms. It's sad when a man controls all the finances and the woman gets left with nothing She will probably lose her car too since it's in his name.

Sadly I have seen a few situations like this at work. I hope your friend is able to get the help she needs.

Going to watch a little more Twilight Zone and then hopefully get a good night’s sleep.

Okay, I am six pages behind and beg your forgiveness. I am dealing with scheduling an all girl family trip to a play in the twin cities, installing ne w garage doors in a three car garage at my lake house because DH managed to back into one of them a couple of weeks ago into the double garage stall and some health related stuff I'd rather not discuss. I have some people, also, who need my support right now and I had to jump in. I will jump in and catch up and of course I care about you all....but Stuff Happens. And it kind of did....

 

[macraven]

Charade, twilight zone was a show I looked forward to each week when it was a regular on tv

I always liked the one where the boy wished people into the corn field

Monyk, now that you said it’s one hour drive for you to the nursing home, I’d think twice of keeping it in your schedule
It’s a long drive .....

pattyw, sometimes the best vacations are just staying in the hotel
With the heavy rain you had, I would have done the hotel surfing too!

I bet you are enjoying the time with your other son
I’m sure he appreciates you coming to help him get the apartment set up

Agavegirl sending you hugs
I know you have your surgery coming up
Still have you in my prayers

So your garage 3 door is now a temporary 2 door garage....

That’s what happens when you let a husband decorate
Jk
Hope all the things that need your attention get taken care of quickly without it draining you

Some times a lot of things happen all at once and it is very hard to juggle it all


Hope all the homies have sweet dreams tonight

If I neglected anyone, I have not meant to
I’m using my phone to read and reply tonight and have to scroll back to see what was posted prior

I prefer to use my IMac for dising
But have two cats on my lap and can’t get off the couch to use the iMac

My cats own me and I’ll be sitting here until I go to bed

 

[macraven]

Been getting website reloading and dread reading that message as I lose what I’ve typed out

Lynne, it’s always hot and humid here

But no complaints as pattyw said, it is better than shoveling snow

 

[Lynne G]

. Hey homies,

. Yep, eat a taco or two today, it's a Tuesday, and oh so beautiful start. Low humidity, some clouds, but bright sun, and light blue skies. While the rain is coming later today, I'm totally enjoying nicer weather. I hear ya Mac. Snow shoveling and ice scraping is not my idea of fun.

Agavegirl, lots of hugs and mummy dust sent. I hope you take care of yourself, while taking care of others. Enjoy that girls trip. And hey, at least you could replace the garage doors. When my little one was 15, we were clearing out the snow in our driveway, and since my car was up close to the garage door, my DH backed out his truck behind my car, and then she wanted to back out my car. She had never really drove before, so we said, to put your foot on the big long pedal, and put the car in reverse. She revving my car so hard, we were screaming at her to stop. Thankful she didn't know how to put the gear into reverse, and stayed in park. Yep, she thought when we said big long petal, we meant the accelerator, not the brake. Ya gotta laugh.

Charade, have fun at the water park with B. Nice it's mostly indoor. Even with 70 degrees, I'm sure the kids will have a great time in the water.

MonyK, yeah, I did at least an hour drive, sometime more if lots of traffic, for about 15 years. It's not the best. But, if you gotta do it, it's a long day, but at least it's one you wanted to work at.

Patty, so nice you had a good time, even if it was rainy. I'm of the opinion, at least I am on vacation, and why not treat yourself to club stuff. Nice momma to help DS get his apartment in order. Enjoy Ft. L.

Is Schumi home yet? If not, I hope she is still having a wonderful time with family and friends.

With that tea is needed. The AC is cranking once again. Blanket ready.

 

[Charade67]

Good morning. We will be leaving for the water park soon. It’s a 2 hour drive. Ugh. The last time we were there was 8 years ago when B’s Brownie troop went. I’m not a big fan of waterparks, but I figure I might use the lazy river and hot tub.

Agavegirl - Good to hear from you. Take care and come back when you have more time.

Lynne - Probably no tacos for us today. I hope the park has some decent food.

I think the Park has WiFi, so I will probably check in later today.

 

[Charade67]

Lesson for today - never assume anything. I assumed B had told her friend we would be leaving at 9:00. We show up at her house and she isn’t ready to go. Me: didn’t you tell her we would be here at 9?
B: Oh, I forgot.
Me: Silently screaming inside my head.)

 

[Lynne G]

teens - girl teens.

I get the opposite. Swears she told me. I'm not that old.

 

[pattyw]

Going to watch a little more Twilight Zone and then hopefully get a good night’s sleep.

Love Twilight Zone!

Sending prayers and We're here for you!!

I always liked the one where the boy wished people into the corn field

Billy Mummy is so scary!! I like the one where he talks to his deceased grandma on his toy phone too!

But have two cats on my lap and can’t get off the couch to use the iMac

That's because you made the mistake of sitting on THEIR chair! I make that mistake too! The furniture is only for us to pay for and clean!

Low humidity, some clouds, but bright sun, and light blue skies. While the rain is coming later today, I'm totally enjoying nicer weather.

Sounds like a great start to the day! Hope the rain holds out for a long time!

We will be leaving for the water park soon

Have fun Charade!! Hope you find a lounge chair in a quiet area!


Ok, my break is over- back to cleaning! And then we're doing a little painting! It's beautiful and sunny!

Tacos sound like a plan!

 

[Charade67]

Taking a little break after lunch. I put my hair up. Stupid me thought I could keep my hair dry. First time on the lazy river - I forgot there was a bucket dump. Yep. I got caught under it. I’m going to wander around and see if there is a hot tub. They have a warm pool, but there are too many little kids in it.

 

[macraven]

Bucket dumps, yuk
Not a fan

Hope the hair dries soon

 

[Charade67]

Well, apparently 5 hours in a water park was enough for the teens. They were ready to go by 4:00. We are now home and contemplating supper.

 

[macraven]

When I can not decide what to fix for dinner, I make BLT

I cleaned out the fridge from leftovers and also made a blt for me

Mr Mac finished the rest of the left overs

 

[Lynne G]

Chinese for us. Lot left over, so breakfast and dinner for tomorrow. Yum. Little one would eat at Mac’s too, as a BLT is the only sandwich she will eat. Likes it only on a roll.
