Something About Nothing ... #12

Nothing quite wakes you up in the morning like the sound of a car wreck happening almost immediately behind you as you're halfway through an intersection

Uh oh.....

When I had a knee infection it swelled
They used a big needle to drain it
I am scared to death of needles so I hope your dad does not have to go they that

My knee surgery for be meniscus was easier than the fluid draining

Hope your dad will be okay real soon!

They did drain the fluid at the Urgent Care on Saturday. MY mom actually had to cover his mouth because he was screaming so loud. Normally I would be sympathetic, but he has been just awful lately with his mood.

Kstarfish hope your dad gets better soon.

Thanks Robo!

Kfish, sending well wishes to your dad. Hope he gets over the infection soon.

We hope so too.....we are leaving in one week!

Hope your dad does better........he's certainly been through the mill..........oh ,mileage can you keep the weather decent for when we arrive........I need some sunshine and warm weather........

I hope the weather stays warm for ya!

Kfish I hope your dad gets better soon. I know all to well what you are going through .

Thanks MrsB! Getting old stinks!

The first comment. Been there done that. Hehehe

Hello all! Been a crazy week. Picked out my granite yesterday. Mom was in town until this am. Mom and sister are now at the beach and I have the house all to myself until Sunday. I will be in my house making no noise and pretending I don't exist. (I hope)

Have a massage tomorrow to get some of my trigger points worked out. Hoping I an enjoy it and relax a little.

Made homemade pasta yesterday and still enjoying it. Nothing like homemade noodles...mmmm

My sister started planning my birthday trip. We're doing it at the motherland since she's not a fan of universal. Have keys to the kingdom tour planned on the Monday, MNSSHP the day before. Will be in Epcot to get my birthday margarita mmmm. Mexico is my favorite.

Hope everyone is doing well! Any braves fans in here? Watching he game through and then catching up on greys.

I can make for 8 days in Orlando with $400, right? Hahahaha

8 hours...No problem.

... Picked out my granite yesterday...

Dang TD...Didn't even know you were sick.

i'm a Cardinal fan no matter where i live.
i will always love my Red Birds....


is your birthday in september?
when you talked about a birthday trip with your sister, i thought it was her birthday you were going to celebrate.

you should plan another trip in early october when a lot of us will be there at the darkside.
do the motherland and have fun with sister and do a repeat in october.
i'll buy you a beer, or a real drink if you come then.

OH NO! I didn't know either!!!
Just kidding. I meant counter tops! Though it's not a bad idea to recycle it one day... Can't take it with you OR CAN YOU!?
It's called "Giallo Ornamental" whatever that means.

Yes, my birthday. Her birthday is February and we went to disney for it too. I'm forcing her to go to Epcot and spend the whole day there. She WOULD go to universal, but I would feel guilty the whole time because she doesn't really enjoy it like I do because she can't really ride many of the rides... And she likes potter but shes not a potterhead or anything so sending hours upon hours of staring and sitting around diagon alley isn't really her thing. I like disney just fine and am looking forward to the tours we're going to be (looooove that kind of thing!) and the halloween party shoes and parades. Also get to do wine and food festival for the first time and excited about that. It's the 21st annual and my birthday is the 21st so it's meant to be right?

I might just do that in October. I have some friends going to HHN and I might tag along and just not do the HN part. Get my own room like I did last time and spoil myself. Will have to see what the finances are doing though. Going to big trip to Disney in September with tours and what not, universal trip in November which will be 3 nights on-site, and I plan on buying a car and starting a few of my long term financial plans by the end of the year. If the money's there I definitely will. If not then..
Oh, and I think I'm also going to Disney with the dance studio when they do the parade filming and spectacular this year. Haven't heard if they're actually filming the parade or not ... but the kids get to dance on the Beauty and Beast stage which is one of my dreams in life.. Ohhh how I wish we did this when I was in dance! That will cost a pretty penny. They stay on site. It's in December. And both of my passes renew in december. Let's just say I'm not spending my money just to spend it this spring and summer.

i see in the "upcoming" the september birthday now.

you really should try one night of hhn.
if you drink enough, all the houses will seem like the same and you might not remember any of it the next day.....

i have done a few of the tours at disney.
did the morning one 4 times, (keys to the kingdom) but different stays
got the special pin each time.
behind the seeds quite a few times for that one also.
went with different peeps as they wanted to do it.

the backstage tour is super!
takes over 7 hours but so much is seen in the parks.

hope you have a good time on the tour you will do.

day before yesterday something awful happened to my iphone.
i lost all emails in my gmail accounts

wasn't upset at first as i figured i could use my iMac to pull all my emails up.
well, you know where this is going.

wasn't the phone after all but the gmail account.

lost over 30 emails on the phone and iMac.


finally was able to figure out how to recover them even though they were deleted.
archives pulled most of them up for me and i have spent the past 2 hours moving the needed ones back to where i have access to them.

my printer has acted up so i did not print out the real important emails and had to recover those.

i had my two flights for this year booked, my car service, my shuttle service to atlanta, room ressies for both trips, etc, that type of needed info.
thrilled i was able to get those needed emails for all myh reservations back in my inbox.

now to figure out the configuration for the printer and i will print all of them out.

for flying and the hotels, i usually just use the app on my phone to show the scanning bar.
but in case that goes south, i will have paper backups.

life is good again.
but, i can't stay up for all hours to move over the stuff that i like to keep in the inbox.
for those that have been sending me emails, well, could not pull all of them up yet but will try another day for that task.


i'm still waiting for robbie to return and tell us more about the car accident this morning...

We've got keys booked. I love love to do the backstage one, but I don't think the sister is up for it. I'm the museum type person... she's the sit in from of a tv person. One day! I'm super excited about keys though. Will be a good medium tour to see how well we both like doing them. I think I'm going to love it and I'm hoping to bring her over the the educational... Idk if that's the word, side.

Mac I'm glad you've been able to get it all back up and running. Other than the printer. Printers are the worst. I show them office space and threaten them. They seem to perk up and work right after that. If you need any help let me know. Idk what good I'll do way down here, but if I were there I would gladly get you back up and running. It's like a puzzle to me.

I should go to sleep. Have to be up in a few hours for relaxing torture.

 

[macraven]

you bet i'll take you up on the printer help!!

is this the first time you are doing the keys to the kingdom tour?
i liked it so well, i did repeats on it......not each year in a row but spaced them out the four times i booked it.

a lot of it depends on how good your tour guide is.
i had a guy named Brick who is marvelous!!

had him twice.
one tour had an older man and he didn't like using the headsets so a lot was lost doing the tour with him.
other person i had was good but not great like Brick was.

Good Morning! Muggy. Did I say muggy? Yep, prior to the rain, we are nearly 60, but oh so humid. Both kids are taking coffee to school. Dropped little one at school already, 5 buses are ready to go to Hershey. I so hope the weather holds out so the kids can enjoy some of the park. Band trip.

Robbie - yep, will definitely wake you up when you see an accident behind ya, and I had that happen in Vegas. Pulled up at the stop light, car behind me did, car behind that car did not. Thankfully we did not get hit.




Enjoy and TGIF! The weekend is at hand. Been a long week.

 

[Robo56]

Morning everyone coffee is good.

Carole love Mr. Myers on the computer. That would be a office worker that would have my full attention in the am LOL

Lynne glad to hear you have some sun Hope the cold is resolved.

Mac computers are our best friends at times, then turn on us. Hope you get all your needed trip info back so you can print it.

Tinyd enjoy your trips while your young. You only go around once. Do things that make you happy

Going to try the Orlando Eye this trip. Made ressies for Sugar Factory. That's a busy place. Had to alter my original date to go there.

I have done a little more planning this year for offsite things.

Have a great Friday everyone.

 

[schumigirl]

mac.....so glad you got those emails back.......I was going to resend mine, but most of them were just babble......lol......printers are the bane of our life too.......don`t know how many we have had and they`re all rubbish!!! Bought various ones to try......the one we have right now is ok......but DS still prefers to use the "reliable" ones at University to print anything off that needs doing. Don`t blame him.

Robo........you will have to go to The Orlando Eye........fabulous place with amazing views........and glad you're trying The Sugar Factory.........only heard good things about it..........kids will love you for taking them there


It is cold today again. Grey and miserable and bloomin cold!! Heating is on. Spent an hour on phone with cousin in Canada......wow can she moan about the exchange rate!!! Told her guess what......ours isn't great either.......but that's life!! Should be fun meeting up with her in September

No real plans today........Spanish Grand Prix this weekend.......

Hope everyone has a great Friday.........

 

[Sparkly]

Looks like we're heading back to Disney and Universal next September!! Sadly a 1 nighter at a Universal hotel isn't in the budget (we're doing 7 nights at OKW with UK free dining then using our DVC points for the next 4-5 nights), but I doubt we'll need it in September right? And it's not that painful to just daytrip over- only 30ish minutes.

Looking forward to the Kong ride and anything new and shiny at Disney!!

 

[schumigirl]

Where is tink.......Vicki........haven't seen you post in a while.........

Decided on lasagne for dinner tonight........with some rocket (arugula) salad........and a nice red to go with it.......

Still thinking of something to do tomorrow.........

 

[schumigirl]

Tiny.......what date in September is your birthday?

Only reason I ask is there's not many of us in September.........loads in August though!!!

Why can't I multi quote today???
