Something About Nothing ... #12

[Lynne G]

updated the sticky, checked & re-checked but some of the pricing between AP/FL seems wonky still to me

have a hoagie calling my name

lynne had 4 blankets on last night, tomorrow supposed to hit 90 degrees. what's it doing out your way?

Mostly same as you. Storms brought cool air in pushing the steamy air out. Yep, 60 degrees mornings. However, the steamy weather wants to revisit, so the battle of the cold and warm will be a late afternoon line of thunderstorms. Then, the 70 degree day we just had will be close to 90 tomorrow, until the storm, then mid 80s to start the new week. We tend to get what you get, unless the mountains break it up. Oh, and on Mac's stickie, I will be at the motherland starting on the 2nd of October. If you'd like to say hi, just text my phone. Oh, and awesome to extend your trip to 2 weeks. Since I have one of those $50 Alamo ressies for October, I will contact customer service and ask about it too. I hope they do honor it, as it is a great rate for my 2 weeks.

just paid for (my share) of RIP tour & renewed DH's U PAP - ouch lol.

I work the numbers and try to stagger trips to Disney wherein I rarely renew our APs there. anything over a few months & it's more advantageous to let it drop and just buy a voucher to use whenever.

I need a WDW AP in place mid August, but on fence whether i'm going to start up the mr's our 1st week @ WDW (will be @ U on 10/2, and wanted to do a party night either that week or the next, as well as activate our SW/A APs). Might just wait until Monday 10/10 so i can squeeze those APs to cover next year's Oct. trip. Will let you know once I settle upon best decision. We'll be @ BWV, the mr is lobbying for them to start up since F&W will be in force lol and we can just roll on over. Will let you now once the dust settles.

re the Alamo $50 coupon. I tried to checkin to our rental end of month @ MYR. Was unable to do so, had to retrieve it and got an error message the coupon was removed. Problem was at that point, still couldn't touch the reservation to add another coupon back on it ($25).

I emailed them via the contact section, received a quick reply that i had to call into their main #. Very easy process to tell the rep what code I wanted to use. Then, I signed into my account and verified the reservation was updated. Printed off a confirmation jik.

while i could've just made a new reservation, I couldn't match the weekly rate i found some time ago...a week, all in now $90 for a midsize.

You know what the CSB AF base does? It's got nukes doesn't it. I can never decide if I think it's a safe or dangerous place to be during war....

don't know how i missed that statement.

before i moved south, we lived one mile from a nuclear plant.

anything go wrong, we wouldn't know what hit us.
boom.....

never thought twice about it.

 

[cbsnyber1]

cbsynber, did they let you play on the orange truck and use the scooper?
i think that would have been kewl....

Not a good idea - remember, there's a live gas line right there that likely would have to be replaced a second time with me in control of that digger.

Can I say this? I GOT GAS!! (finally).

anyone watching the cardinal game?

Just saying bottom of the 12 th and another home run...

Man what a week. We finally got our main product that we have been out of for 3 weeks. We got 1000 pounds Tuesday and I've shipped 400 pounds since then. It was a world wide shortage of Hyssop herb that caused it. So now we still have about 200 orders out because of this and our typical output is 40-45 orders per day. Molly is spending too much time answering "Where's my order?" emails when we need to spend all our time putting stuff in boxes. The trials and tribulations of having your own business. But It's still the best gig I've ever had thanks to her!

 

[macraven]

Is this an herb that can be baked?


I think you should Molly a raise

 

[macraven]

Hey guess who won that cardinal game......


Woot!

 

[SharkyGoddess]

GOOOOO CARDS!!!!

 

[macraven]

knew i could count on Sharky for the Cardinals....

i love my Redbirds...

Went to Teds for the first time tonight and then finally got to see the Jungle Book. So glad I have the friends I have. Was spent with the friend who has the 1 year old tonight. Her mom kept her daughter so we could have a night. She's the one that's doing Universal with me in November for her birthday. She learned about the wand shop and interactive wands over dinner tonight. Pretty sure Ive never seen her more excited... and I was her Maid of Honor! (DONT TELL HER HUSBAND!)I've known her since 3rd grade and we became friends out of... We danced together and we became dance bffs. So convenience? lol! Not like that anymore though.

We realized this evening we're going to be down there right around when the new Fantastic Beasts movie comes out. We shifted our dates so that we'll be there when it does... Do you guys think thats a bad idea? Our thoughts were that we'll go see the midnight premiere while we're there rather than coming home a day and then her husband having to have ANOTHER night alone. (She is ONLY 1! first trip away from baby for mom.) I've heard not amazing things about that AMC at city walk..... Anyone been?

 

[macraven]

i'm still thinking of "don't tell her husband" that you were the maid of honor.......

i'll read it again later after coffee.
sure it will make sense then or i'll see the letters correctly.......

No, but I do joke that I'm finally putting my college eduation to use. Putting herbs in bags and selling it!

The business is all hers. She developed the products before we met, when she was raising dairy goats in Tennessee. I work for her and I don't get paid, per se. Less paperwork that way.

I wondered if anyone would catch on. Don tell her husband she's more excited about interactive wands than on her wedding day! I was there through every step of that and... Yeah Harry Potter takes the cake ​

Morning to all the Sans family. Been reading back a few pages. Have been making some drive my posts on the dis and working on trip report since getting back from trip. Had a few foggy days.

I fell while I was down in my sunken garden and hit back of my head pretty hard. Had to have a scan...LOL...I kept praying my head was as hard as my mom always said it was IT IS

Mild concussion, scratches and bruises and a lump on the back of my noggin, but I have all my marbles

Then I woke up with sore throat and cough this morning. I think I' am on a role here. My vitamin C has failed me.

Excited about all the news on HHN. Sat down and figured out what tickets our group is going to need for HHN last night. Waiting for reponse so we can get the RIP tour date locked in.

Sounds like everyone here is busy with plans for their upcoming travel to our fav place Universal. Looking forward to the trip with my sisters and niece in September.

Thinking about some special plans for my baby sisters birthday. Her birthday will happen while we were there.

There is another birthday that happens in September also.. Who could that be? Hope she had a safe journey back home across the pond. Looking forward to hearing about her great time in New York.

Keisha great job on the HHN sticky. Great planning information.

Mac as always the mother of Sans is always helping all and watching over her Sans family. I appreciate all your time and effort and knowledge on all things Universal.

Squirlz glad you and the Mrs recieved your shipment of herbs.

Tinyd you will meet the right guy when you least expect it

PC saw your pics from Candy Factory. Glad we went during lunch time. We went to the one by the Orlando Eye. Not a cheap experience, but you only go around once in life. Nice to try new things. Nice your Uncle treated everyone. That for sure set him back some serious coin. How sweet of him. Grandson wanted one of the sequined handled lollipops. When I saw the price $ 26.00 I decided that's were I draw the line. He was happy to fill a container with assorted candies from the wall.

Sounds like the Bluers and the PCtang families are planning their upcoming Universal trip. Should we call ahead and warn then have a great time.

SharkyGoddess grandkiddos seen baby shark while we at the ocean. Needless to say Nana made them stay out of the ocean for the rest of the afternoon we were there.

Buckeev, Marciemi, Monykalyn, Lynn and everyone who had babies graduating. Congratulations on your children's graduation. Behind every graduate on the stage are the parents who loved and supported them both emotionally and financially.


Ky07 single digits on the upcoming trip woot woot. Hope the meds are settled in and you and your wife have a much needed fun time at Universal.

 

[SharkyGoddess]

First... OUCH!!!! I'm glad your noggin is ok! Now about that baby shark... that's jawesome Robo!!! I would have made my crew stay out too, you can't be too careful!

In her defense it IS Harry Potter!
