Something About Nothing ... #12

[schumigirl]

Hanging by the RPR pool right now enjoying some drinks. Kids are swimming, 85 degrees and its jumping here! 5 tiny ducklings are swimming in the pool among the masses! I feel the stress melting away!

Lol! That's hilarious!

Sounds like bliss right now PC.........wish I was there.........

Yes, my son has a very good sense of humour.......thank goodness!!!

 

[macraven]

long day here and no time to read back on what i missed out on today.

i'm thinking pc should be having a beer now and catching some rays.

 

[macraven]

oops, hit send too soon.


finally got a person out to our house for the inspecting and cleaning the ac and heat pumps.

our house sat vacant for 0ver 1.5 years and the units were on low operating.

good that they were on and not turned off...


we have two units so double the price for the work and freon today.
but, now we know it is in good operating order and will be ready for the heat that comes this summer.

one of my boys lives about one mile from our former house.
so the weather he gets is the same weather where we used to live.

they had snow and winds yesterday, which was the second round of winter storms for them.
was watching some weather news this afternoon and saw the storm with snow again hit my old area.

tomorrow doesn't look much better for them....


and here i was going to whine about having the heat on.....
sunny here but chilly compared to what we had all last week.

hope all the homies are doing well.

figure we will hear from St L soon to find out if it will be a check or bike his son is getting soon.....

 

[macraven]

Wahoo! PC is back at the darkside! Hope the crowds won't be too bad for you guys.

And I have never heard the word flat to describe wings. I'm with Mac, first thought is shoes. Ohh, I am not a big wing fan, so maybe that's why.

Yep, Mac. DD's hair actually does look nice. She keeps her hair in a pony tail most of the time, so it's not as obvious.

Good morning all! We're actually at 40 degrees, so yay! Not a freezing morning. Very overcast and rain on the way.

and:

Enjoy the day all!

btw, i just saw this and i could have sworn today was wednesday.

just reinforces i should start my day here for the homies to guide me to the day of the week.....lol

lynne, your weather will change soon.
it will warm up.

good thing is you don't talk about snow..
maybe tomorrow that will change but not today.

yea, shoes is the first thing i thought of when the subject of flats started in this thread.

Hey all......just dropping by. We are starting to pack up as we will be moving next month. Can't believe how much stuff I've accumulated in just 2 and half years

 

[schumigirl]

Hey goofy..........nice to see ya post.......been a while.......

Hope the move goes well........can be quite stressful.........

 

[macraven]

Hey all......just dropping by. We are starting to pack up as we will be moving next month. Can't believe how much stuff I've accumulated in just 2 and half years

hope you are not moving out of florida.......


wait and say you can't believe all the crap you have accumulated when moving after 31 years in one place......

 

[Lynne G]

I won't ask Goofy. Stuff just sticks around when you do not realize need to move. Where is the new place?

Just chilling in a windy, cool, rainy day. Unlike Pcstang. Looks like he is having a great time and perfect weather.

Barney.....LOL. Even my kids remember him. I feel like snuggling up too Schumi. Pizza tonight as I do not feel like cooking. Salad and I am done.

I went from everything except my bed fitting in my 2 door civic to needing the largest Uhaul they have, my 4 door civic, and my dad's truck when I moved in/out of college... 3.5 years of stuff. Now that I'm spread out between two different houses I don't even want to know how much I have when I go to move into one house and stay put. Aye aye aye! Happy packing! I'm not a fan, but it's a great way to declutter your life. Don't want to pack it? Donate it! That's my motto.

hope you are not moving out of florida.......


wait and say you can't believe all the crap you have accumulated when moving after 31 years in one place......

When I was little we moved 4 times... then when I turned 9 we stayed put for 15... in 4000sq foot of house and garage. OH. MY. GOODNESS at all the CRAP! When we moved out we had to put it SOMEWHERE because she was moving into an already furnished house. We currently have two storage units of it... BIG STORAGE UNITS. And mom likes to say its all our stuff, oh no ma'am one of those is COMPLETELY yours. I keep trying to convince her to let me sell a lot of it and donate the other lot of it. I'm whittling her down..... Think once the new house is done and she finally realizes she doesn't NEED any of it I can get her to let me sell it to someone else who can genuinely use it instead of holding on to it all and letting it go to no use in the storage. She always taught me growing up to clean out and donate unneeded things... clothes, toys, books, stuff... Now I'm having to re-teach her!!!


Weather is warm here.. I was sweating earlier in a shirt sleeve T. AC is on and running and I have it set to turn on at 75... Nothing but sun here... apparently there were some tornadoes last night. When I went to bed at 2 I didn't even know it was supposed to rain! Had to go to the store and get stuff to do cupcakes tomorrow. Best friend's kid's 1st birthday party is Saturday and she has a GIANT family! Everyones divorced and remarried- everyone! on both sides. So I'm making 60-80 cupcakes.... Should be fun. Love birthday parties! My sister is excited she gets to taste test all the frosting. After cooking all of it my taste buds are usually anti sugar. Think I'm also going to roast that turkey tomorrow.

Lynne.........Lol.......I'm so cosy tonight...........feels like a real winter night..........enjoy that pizza........

When my son was about 4 or 5 when you asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up it was either a trash man or..........Barney!!!

I need some sunshine............


Crikey I've moved 12 times..........not including short temporary stays abroad..........not done yet either.........

 

[tink1957]

Checking in...

PC...RPR sounds like heaven right now...drink a pool drink for me and enjoy

Carole... Barney...gotta love our son's...they tell it like it is.

I now am educated as well about chicken wings...you learn something new everyday.

We had fun in Atlanta here's a few pics of the Skyview...

It was all good until we returned home to hear that a friend and co-worker had died suddenly...she was a few years younger than me. She died of a heart attack. So sad It makes you want to cherish every moment with your loved ones because it could be your last.

Lol neither still trying to figure out the closest WalMart to him and just see if he can pick the stuff up or the last option is to let girlfriends grandmother buy the stuff he needs and then send them a money order

Are you speaking spanish? I got CCL and TA... and RCCL. And glad to know about the texting! Do they do free wifi now or something? It's been so long... I'm dreaming of midnight buffets. I've been itching to get back on a boat. Best friend I were just talking about it. We've postponed our fall cruise and swore on our lives to go next spring. Shes a teacher and I hate having to follow school calendars! That's why I wanted to go this fall.. her fall break is different than most and not everyone gets a fall break.

Hola
Sorry PVP - personal vacation planner works for carnival. OBC - on board credit
Ps midnight buffers r thing of past but there's always from service and 24 hour pizza
They sell Internet pkg on board. Even if u have international package/roaming U have to switch over to whatever ship provider as in cellular at sea. Would need to ck with cruise line to determine rates
Mac big fronts r coming thru again. The idea of accumulating snow is disturbing

Tink that had to be shocking to hear. Good advice for us all

Carole woohoo new duds! You'd be surprised how often places try to Palm off chicken nuggets ATMs wings as long as they drench them in some sauce.
There's times I wish I could get away with adding sugar to what I'm told is fine wine.
At the risk of outing myself, fond of making a spritzer of half ginger ale and riunite Lambrusco lol. Otherwise a bottle of Asti Spumante is my go to

 

[RAPstar]

I'm tired even though we were super slow today

 

[tinydancer09]

@keishashadow they took the midnight buffets?! THE HORROR! Actually that's okay. All I ever really ate that late was pizza anyways. I don't actually eat as much as I talk about... I just like food and it was a special thing to do on the cruises. I just enjoyed all the sculptures and such on the night buffets. Are the shows still good if not better? Always enjoyed those.. and the newly wed game. And bingo. I wont $315 dollars playing bingo when I was 13. Mom had to sign for it but she let me keep it. My sister won $100 during the same game.. one of those 10 game ones. Love it.

I still drink sweet bubbly wines. I'm starting to branch out and learn to have a taste for more sophisticated wines... But I'm only 25 so I have time to mature into my tastes right? My go to is red moscato or mimosas. My mimosa's are with pineapple orange though. Not a huge fan of just orange.

PC Hope you're having fun! It was a warm one today, but you're used to it. Have fun in the parks tomorrow!

Also I'm enjoying how helping teach everyone things with others. I especially enjoy the pictures to help! I never knew a chicken wing had three parts.. just thought it had two. Forgot about one! Anyone catch my jimmies vs sprinkles?

 

[macraven]

for someone that looks like she is 5 ' tall with heeled shoes on and weighing about 90 lbs, i have no idea where you put all the food you eat tinyD.......

 

[macraven]

aw vicki that had to be hard to find out your friend passed while you were out of town.

from your homies here

 

[tinydancer09]

for someone that looks like she is 5 ' tall with heeled shoes on and weighing about 90 lbs, i have no idea where you put all the food you eat tinyD.......

You're exactly right! I'm 4'8'' and I wish I weighed 90! More 110ish on a bad day... Ideal is 100. Before anyone rolls their eyes just remember I'm the height of a 10-12 year old! I can technically ride pteranodon flyers without a child with me...(if the TM didn't question my age)

 

[Bluer101]
