Something About Nothing ... #12

[agavegirl1]

Sorry I'm late but....
Happy anniversary to Schumi and agavegirl1!

Been keeping busy with work and home. Still counting down for our trip 30 days.

Thanks Mrsbluer101! I wish I had a trip in 30 days.

Congratulations kohlby!
This is what you were hoping for and now it is happening

 

[tinydancer09]

Congrats @kohlby !!!
Do we have a TM homie? Maybe we have over the years.
So exciting!

Good luck with the movie, getting house, ready, etc.
Drinks at your new house when we're all in right.... kidding

Congratulations @kohlby...you're living the dream

 

[agavegirl1]

Congratulations @kohlby interesting times ahead!

 

[keishashadow]

Kohlby will be livin' in the land(s) - cool! Of course we expect to hear. All the inside dirt pronto lol

 

[Monykalyn]

Congrats to @kohlby family! The funniest stories come from TM at Universal (and I am an ex Disney CM).

Soreness from high flying tubing incident better today. Motrin helps!

Shark safety tip of the day... make sure the hand you reach into a 350 degree oven to grab the pan out is the same one wearing the pot holder. Trust me on this!

OWWW! A hot water burn is how I found out I am allergic to neosporin (the dermatologist my GP was finally able to get me into had only ever "read about these cases in a textbook"-glad I could help his education along - even though he'd been practicing 20+ years). Aloe is a wonder plant. And I have had minor burns from pan handles while still getting used to my gas stove.

Six flags fright fest sounds fun Mac! I worked the STL Six flags for a couple years in high school but they didn't have Fright fest then-believe it started in the next year or 2 after I left.

Possibly going to see Magic Mike show in Vegas next spring. Need to find a couple more girls to go along before my friend and I can book for sure. Allegiant finally has flights out, condos available and tix on presale.

For Schumi-tried a new recipe for beef roast-cranberry and apple with seasonings in slow cooker. Was quite good and easy for those busy shopping days (or working days as the case may be)

Wahoo to Kohlby. What an exciting time to move. And a great job for DH.

Nice night.

Interesting going to six flags Mac, as we have one in NJ,and after being there when the kids were younger, no desire to ever step foot in there again. Kids have no desire either, and they both really like coasters. Dorney and Hershey parks are where they would rather go. Both are open with Halloween events, but we have never taken part in either. You will have to let me know How it goes Mac.

Lynne that minionion is a hoot!!

I started taking my boys to great America/6 flags when they were littles for entertainment during the summer

When they got older maybe 9 yo, we started doing fright fest

Every four years we would drive to St. Louis and do mid America six flags and stay down there

It filled the void for the summers we did not do Orlando


Now for going to Atlanta six flags will be something to check out how they compare to the other two I have done

 

[Robo56]

Love the minion booty pic Lynne....LOL

Have been home all day. Saw the UPS truck go down our street.....didn't stop at my house. Went to my Disney Experience to check on Disney bands and checked the tracking number and the UPS driver said he attempted to deliver my package at 10:54 this morning and left a ticket.....Not!!!!!!!!......did not stop.....did not leave a ticket

I requested that it be delivered again tomorrow. That guy is going to get a piece of my mind tomorrow

Congratulations kohlby on your upcoming move.

Thanks all! Looking at housing prices, we're going to have to go with something much smaller so maybe I'll need to go out for drinks instead of having y'all over. Right now, I'm a bit overwhelmed to say the least. The realtor is coming over tomorrow to give us an idea of what we can ask for our house. Husband has so many projects to finish up. We have so much stuff to do - and I'm going away this weekend with some friends. It's my first ever post-kids girls weekend ever so I wasn't about to cancel. We're going to Hilton Head for a couple nights. It's totally the wrong time to take off based on all I have to do. But, it's also the totally right time to take off to manage stress.

Hehe I was only teasing anyhow. Though we were talking about a SANs cookout one time....
Nah, I think we'll stick to citywalk universal meet ups.

Good luck with everything. Just take a deep breath and remember universal will be in your back yard... it'll all work out!

 

[tinydancer09]

Well it's official. I've started theme park training. Considering the results I should have started about 3 weeks ago.
It has indeed been a hard summer in the office. My legs are like

Things have a way that will work out for your move

Last October I was at the darkside when I found out our offer for a house in Ga was accepted

Spent 4 days of my vacation at rpr at the business center there handling the documents that were sent to me

Once I was home found a realtor to list our house
Sold it as is

Nerve racking experience but all worked out quickly

It will be stressful at times but all will fall into place quickly for you

You have a new future ahead for you and it will be fun

Have a fantastic girls weekend !

Sounds lovely.........I adore anything with cranberry in.........I`m lucky I have the time to cook and experiment......had some disasters though!!!! Still love my slow cooker though..........

Sounds like a fun place to be..........my cousins have been to the one closer to where you used to live and always enjoyed it........one day..........

Hate when that happens.........if we don't leave our gate open they claim they couldn't gain access...........annoying!! Hope it gets delivered today anyway.........

Enjoy your weekend........stuff will be there when you get back..........my DH surprised me with a week in Paris a month before we got married........everyone was like.......how can you disappear for a week right now.........easy!!! We had a blast........hope you have fun anyway........



Quiet day today..........not much going on.......friend called 10 mins ago and asked if she can drop off her grandson while she goes for a doctors appointment.........he`s around 4 months old and I cant wait!!!! A little baby.............will only have him for an hour or so, but still.......he`s so cute...........

Ah Wednesday already. Camel and coffee. Check.

No sight of the purple band yet, but I guess it should be here soon. Can't believe now in the 20's count. That's less than 3 weeks, and Schumi is on single digits!

Another nice cool morning and another 90's day. Kid came down with gym like clothes for her first day. Told her to get back up there, collared shirt and jean shorts. Hair up, is okay though, the school does not have AC in most of the classrooms. Older one was groaning. Seems online playing with his friends wore him out yesterday. Umm, college kid, you'd better be ready for class. The joys of having teens.

Wow - Paris. That would be a nice distraction.

Enjoy your time with the baby. That sounds like a fun hour. Babies are just so cute. Not so cute that I want more, but cute enough that I need more friends with babies willing to come by.

It's nice to hear someone else has a kid who doesn't think things through when getting dressed. My eldest just picks out whatever is on top - whether it matches or not. The exception is if I sneak nicer shorts on top. Then he digs to get other shorts. He doesn't care how he looks at all - won't comb his hair unless I tell him. I'm hoping he'll start caring at some point.

Congrats to the @kohlby fam! How exciting. Have fun at your girls weekend. If we all pushed out trips etc to wait for the "right time" we would never leave our house! You just have to carpe the heck out of the diem sometimes!

@macraven did you snag the six flag annual pass special? It comes out around now and is a great deal. I am going to wait until next year when the girls are a little older. Our weekends are so packed I don't know when we'd go.

@Robo56 and @schumigirl I would beg to have a slow weekend! My whole life is just flying by at warp speed.

@macraven @tinydancer09 i vowed to pack early this trip. We will see what happens. My Mom has been packed for a week!

@keishashadow did you post a pic of the zombie flamingoes yet?? I think I missed a page or two somehow.

@Lynne G ha! Love those memes!! With all girls I am literally scared of the teenage years.

Running so slow this morning. I just want to take a nap.
