Something About Nothing ... #12

[cam757]

Good Morning All, been a while since I have checked in but I have been keeping up. Leaving for Orlando on Friday. Can't believe it is already here. I have so much to do. I have not packed the first thing but have at least pulled the suitcases down from the attic. Eventually, I am going to learn that I need to take off from work the day before a vacation. Checking into RPR Monday. Cannot wait. First up, 2 nights at AKL.

Really hope Toothsome opens up while we are there. Bummed my nephew is not coming but some good friends will be in Orlando the same time as us so DS will have someone to hang out for a few days.

Thinking about doing an airboat tour. Any recommendations?

Have a good one!

Cam happy to see you here

I know life gets busy and thrilled when my homies return here to share

So exciting your trip will be here in a few days!

I pack like you do and it works every time for me

Usually pack the last minute and with the thought if I need something that was not packed , I buy it there after arriving

I have no experience with the air boats tour but hope someone does that can fill you in on that

48 hours and counting for you

Welcome back too.........and you leave Friday.....yay.......look forward to hearing about it when you get back.......I'm a last minute packer too........usually day we leave for our overnight at airport......don't see the point packing before.......

We did Spirit of the Swamp years ago, but still gets fabulous reviews........friends and relatives still go there and have all loved it. Not as far to go as some of them as it's pretty close.

Hope that doesn't last.

Hi everyone checking out whats going on this afternoon . Had my coffee, eyes are open.

Thanks everyone for the Happy Birthdays wishes for my son. We will have him over for a proper birthday dinner this weekend to celebrate with his favorite .

Happy birthday Ky07

Raining here again today. Wish I could send some of this rain to you Mac.

BagOLaughs glad to see you back on the Sans.

 

[schumigirl]

Sorry Rachel.........cleared my plate.......event the salad!!! Lol......

Hey Robo..........


Been glancing through some other threads and I'm constantly amazed how much personal info folks put into their posts........financial and personal!! Really?

Watching the final 2 episodes of Game of Thrones season 6 tonight........can't wait, but dread when it's finished as we adore it! Never in a million years did I think I'd be saying that..........hate having to wait till next year! Least I don't need to avoid spoilers after tonight and can google everything about the show tomorrow.......

Enjoy rest of your Wednesday........

Hot here

Makes you wonder how peeps survived the South before ac

We got a bunch more rain today. I got the lawn mowed Monday just before the rain came. It was about 87 degrees but I'm glad I got that out of the way.

Hey all-quick "hi"!. Probably my only day off and all day at home for next 3 weeks. So decided to do a bunch of freezer meals for slow cooker-have 10 meals ready to just thaw and dump in pot. Took me longer than I thought it would-did the shopping right after took DS to his first day of 5th grade (middle got herself off to bus for HS just fine-did get up at crack of dawn to see her though-freshman this year). Poor dog followed me everywhere today-everywhere! Like having a toddler again (even into bathroom and he generally won't go in the bathroom-bathtub and baths ya know).

Move in for oldest went fine. She is all set up and settling in. Lots of welcome week activities going on-most revolve around food so she is quite pleased!

Been gorgeous weather for past couple days -low to upper '80's with low humidity.

Hope all are doing well and happily counting down to trips!

@cam757 you pack like i do! seriously - as long as you have tickets, an id, and some method of payment - all will be well! a co-worker laughed at me once and said really? let me know how it goes when you get to orlando with no undies! me: HELLO - there is super wal-mart, 2 outlet malls, millenia mall... heck - i bet they even sell them in publix - and don't get me started on amazon prime!

@BagOLaughs thanks! i pretty much suck at all things mom related though! my mom had four children and i ask her all the time how she did it? i only have two and between traffic and life i feel like i get nothing done.

@schumigirl YAY for GoT! We will have to start a convo when you are finished. I would love to get your thoughts!

@macraven it is crazy hot for no reason. like - i think i spotted the devil on my lounge chair with an umbrella drink saying "dang its hot here" kind of hot

@Monykalyn what an awesome idea. where did you get your recipes? also - i always say having a dog is like having a perpetual 2 year old.

Found out I needed 4 new tires today. YAY!

Enjoy!! Come back when you've watched em. Love me some game of thrones!

Darn about steak... even though I did have an amazing burger over the weekend, with avocado, salad, garlic mayo and the best sweet potato fries I've ever had.

This, this right here made me LOL on the train. People looking at me like I'm crazy, well they're not wrong!

Cold and misty again this morn. But looks like once its cleared it will be another glorious day. Fingers crossed it will stick around until the weekend. Very busy day at work planned but hey, it's nearly the weekend!!!

In other news, got the seating plan sorted for wedding. 1 evening, bam, done. Naturally some complaining from the family but I'm just saying, it's only dinner people! I'm not chaining you to these people for the whole day! Ive Kept partners together and children with parents so I don't know what they're complaining about.

Glad the move went well........will make it easier for you knowing she`s settled..........I love my slow cookers. Recently bought one of those Instant Pots........it`ll grow on me.

@schumigirl YAY for GoT! We will have to start a convo when you are finished. I would love to get your thoughts!

I thought for years I would hate this show.......but we adored it straight away. Despite my phobia I adore Peter Dinklage`s character......best in the show........so many favourites though especially the gorgeous Kingslayer Jamie......he grew on me Loved what happened to Ramsey Bolton and Joffrey......amazing episodes. And so many brilliant characters......tempted to watch it all from the beginning again........although some are hard to watch!

Enjoy!! Come back when you've watched em. Love me some game of thrones!

Burger sounds lush!!!

Wedding seating plans.......can`t please everyone, so we didn`t even try........don`t like where you`re sat? Leave.......lol.......I made it plain to all who I thought would complain they would be wasting their time so don't even try.......no one complained......to me.....


Beautiful day here again today......been out to do some gardening and that`s about it for today so far..........got some nasty weather coming over the weekend apparently...........

On the plus side........4 weeks today till we fly..........

Wahoo, Cam leaving soon, Schumi leaving in a month, BagO getting married a little later.

BagO, if some of the family doesn't complain, it's not a real wedding. LOL

Rainy, gray start to the day. But, no matter, we'll still be 90 by the afternoon. A 70 to 75 mph line of thunderstorms arrived around midnight. Some quick rocking and rolling, and then a quiet early morning. This morning's rain is just a shower, so apparently, I've had 2 showers. One with clothes on, and one without.

Good morning all! It's time to put on the coffee and tea. Yep, it's gonna be that kinda day.

Yep, trips are coming around........this year has just flown past!

Hope your weather isn't too bad........though I do love a good thunderstorm..........

 

[macraven]

I'm no longer going to whine about the weather

Me stomping my feet hasn't made it rain yet
Lol

40 days for me and the diet has not worked yet.....maybe I'll work on that next year


I can remember when schumi was not interested in WD show
Now she is hooked and also hooked for game of thrones

Good girl!

Hope all the homies are doing well

Only a few more days and the weekend and wine start

 

[goNDmay9]

@BagOLaughs that burger sounds yummy! oh - the dreaded seating chart. like @Lynne G said - it's not a real wedding if someone is not complaining.

@schumigirl love the memes for today! so excited that you are loving GoT.

@macraven i will start stomping with you - maybe that will help.

@Lynne G sending good vibes for your day

Think that "next year" diet may be my only option too mac.................. Although I like the sound of weekend and wine

Yep, I'm usually late to the party when it comes to epic TV shows.....WD, GoT and even Breaking Bad........watched that one after it was totally done.......lol........GoT is the winner though of them all for us.........although I am looking forward to WD again. Think we get it 2 weeks or a week after you.........



Home made beef burgers with jalapeños tonight and sweet potato wedges roasted in spices........
