Something About Nothing ... #12

[schumigirl]

Why did I think she was home yesterday?? She did say as well..........my brain is fried at times!!


Yes, friends are lovely really........they found it very funny they didn't notice eventually........lol.......we were fairly engrossed in what was on table.........didn't end up in a coffee house after all mac........ended up in a restaurant so won't be eating again today I think!!

Going to book my mum and I for the Rockefeller Centre and Empire State Building tonight........we got in easily to ESB last year, but queue for Rockefeller was massive.........so goes against all my non planning instincts but want to make sure mum gets to experience it this time.........she loved Empire State Building last year........she has no fear of heights like me.........such a high building

I have already sucked down 1/2 pot of coffee so really no excuse now to not get up and do stuff...

you need to have more coffee before you even think about housework........
but if it is shopping, you will have more energy to do that.
shopping is more fun than cleaning.

i speak from experience

 

[schumigirl]

yeah that "no desire" minion is calling my name this am. I have to get to housework though-started laundry last night as everyone out of clothes...so far this am I've played with the chickens and ordered a new comforter set. My current one is over 10 years old and falling apart. I hate spending money on that stuff and can never find anything I like anyway

I am chili'd out now but if you make a batch Mac at least it will freeze well. Had Shells n Cheese last night ( i make cheese sauce from scratch) - son thought it was "best ever". But he thinks that about most food

I have already sucked down 1/2 pot of coffee so really no excuse now to not get up and do stuff...

Lol.....I know that "no desire" feeling well!! Most days........lol........

You have chickens??? I'm kinda scared of chickens a little bit........well, not scared just never been around a live one.........do you name them?

 

[macraven]

i'm thinking chickens are not pets but for food.

when i was growing up, we had a chicken coop in the back yard and ......well....they didn't live a full life.



i think MK has them for eggs.

 

[schumigirl]

Ah, that would make sense.........DH goes to a local farm to buy our eggs, as the chickens roam free I won't go.....I'm actually a bit wary in case I drive of the top of one!! Wouldn't make me popular with Farmer Bill.

Don't mind eating them though..........


Had half a tub of Ben & Jerry's instead of dinner tonight.......wasn't hungry.......made them lasagne, well, made DH lasagne and DS Mac and cheese as he doesn't like tomato in any form.

Now watching WD again........we have rain, heavy rain.....

 

[ky07]

i'll skip the muffin and take a bakery pastry.......

are you getting snow again?
back at the former home, they have more snow ....again.
better my kids have it than me.
they used to love the snow when they were under age 10....
that is when they found out how to use a snow shovel




i've seen the weather for kentucky .....wow, those temps really dropped again.
big news down here about I 75 closing.
hope you don't have to use it

stay warm!



Happy belated
will the coffee still be there if i start driving by noon?

Ok Lynne WHERES THE CAMEL?

think keisha will be home tomorrow, if not later tonight.
but only in the body form, not in her mind...

your homie friends didn't notice your hair probably because they were too busy with the food and drink.....

you know when you are among friends as they all have the same priorities....



another shot out to goofy !
2 cups of coffee is just a start tink.
we all need at least 4 cups each morning to get moving.[/QUOTE][/QUOTE]
Yeah those temps really dropped and yes we use I-75 to go to the dark side and hope it is reopened by June cause if not we will have to figure out a detour

 

[macraven]

St L, there is a current thread on the transportation board.
check it out.
some are given alternative ways around it.
there is more specutlation on the reconstruction in that thread.

the only section of I 75 that is detoured is in kentucky.
rest of the way is fine.

now when you are going through Georgia, let me know and i will go stand on the side of the highway and wave to you when you go by.
.....just in case you didn't get the memo, we moved south
(and i am minutes away from that highway)

 

[RAPstar]

I sent 200 emails today. 200. Emails. Today. The other 4 people sent out 50. And they wonder why were behind 4 days in response to the emails (which a is about 2400+ emails we have in the overdue box)

 

[macraven]

Do you have a supervisor that knows the count of each employees production?

 

[RAPstar]

Do you have a supervisor that knows the count of each employees production?

yes

 

[macraven]

Maybe you'll end up being promoted to supervisor eventually and you be aware certain jobs can be done when effort is out into it

How in the world can your company keep employees that don't do their job?

If you are sending out 200 emails and the others only manage 50 a day, you'd think your supervisor would weed out the slackers

Robbie I know it suxs when you do your job and the coworkers don't
Sending you hugs

 

[schumigirl]

 

[schumigirl]

Robbie........don`t let it grind you down........other people suck sometimes!!!


Good Thursday morning..........sunshine and frost today after having rain all last night........

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday.........

 

[Lynne G]

Thanks for the minions Schumi. Yep, we're below freezing, but have an absolutely beautiful sunrise. I think the weather is fooling us, we're to have several inches of snow by tomorrow morning. Thankfully, won't start until later in the evening tonight. Hoping I don't have a messy morning commute.

It is. And, since it's ONLY Thursday:

So raise a cup of coffee for the death of my 2011 ipad. I had to retire it. Not enough memory. Who knew we'd need so much on our tablets. Guess I'll have to join my kids and get a newer ipad. Obsolescence in electronics at its best.

Robbie - that's a lot of emails. Yeah, I hate that, tells ya who cares and who doesn't.

KY, have a great trip.

TinyD, have great trips too.

Take care all!

 

[macraven]

Love Thursdays minionion

 

[Kivara]

I'm around still, just now caught up on everything missed (I think...man, you all were chatty while I was away! haha)

Robbie, chin up; hopefully things will get better soon!

Lynne, I hear you on those pesky electronics. When I got my iPod, I thought, how can possibly need 8GB of space on this thing...ready to get a new one here too.

It's my middle boy's 13th birthday today...I'm off to try making him a Butterbeer cake, but I'll be popping in occasionally!

Happy Thursday all

 

[macraven]

Thrilled you came back to us Kivara!

We miss our homies when they take vacations from us

I love how all that have ever posted in the sans before can come back to post and know they are welcome

 

[schumigirl]

New iPad is always good........I have two iPads on the go and if one died, I'd get a new one........quite sad I suppose, but hey ho...........yes treat yourself Lynne!!

Happy Birthday to Kivaras middle DS.......hope he has a lovely day and enjoys his cake

Yes mac there's a few I wish would come back...........


Watching trashy tv this afternoon...........while sending out emails......nice quiet day......

 

[Lynne G]

OOOOH a newly minted teen! Happy Birthday to Kivara's DS!
So nice of mom to bake a cake for him.

Yep, probably will treat myself to a new iPad tonight. I hate typing and looking at things on my phone more than my iPad. I'm sure my kids will help me set it up. And most likely a 32GB. Apparently, with sharing my kids stuff in our cloud, there was so much more than my 8GB one could handle. And the update too, they are much larger nowadays than in the past.

And if you're in the mood for chocolate, see this minion:

 

[tink1957]

Lynne...I'm always in the mood for chocolate.

to kivara's DS.

Crazy weather here...the thermometer on my porch says it's 38 and we're having a thunderstorm complete with small hail or sleet it's hard to tell. All I know is a big clap of thunder just shook my entire house. Funny thing is the weather channel says it's 51 here...I think they missed it.
