Something About Nothing ... #12

[macraven]

We are currently here at MK....and will be also at the Last MVMCP tomorrow night. My connection has been "hit-or-miss"... (mostly miss!). If someone would send a PM to Shelle and have her email me to confirm what we can best do, that'd be awesome. My phone locks up when I try to PM....Mac also has my cell #.

Thanks. He was a very cool British guy that I spent lots of time and shared many a pint with. He was a fixture at the Microbrewery I used to work with. He had so many stories. Friends have created a Facebook page for him if you'd like to check it out.

What a lovely read.

Yes, real men do wear pink! He sounded a real nice guy and quite the character squirlz. Always the good ones that seem to go first. Again, I'm so sorry, it's awful losing a friend.

Keisha I love snickerdoodles too........hadn't ever heard of them till I saw them mentioned on an episode of two and a half men.........Michael Clarke Duncan's character made them.......very funny episode...... But very nice and simple.......



We are freezing today.......went out with DS to get last minute things for taking up to Scotland........but, shops were just too busy and I hate crowds like that. Got a few things and left. Will venture again before we leave tomorrow......I forgot something for one of my brothers..........

Planning a quiet few days in Scotland. Booked into a lovely little hotel and got 2 rooms so we don't need to share...........Friday night is meeting up with friends. Christmas Eve daytime will be visiting with mum and mooching around a bit seeing a couple of relatives then Christmas Eve is meal out with mum and couple of family members then Christmas Day is breakfast in the hotel, over to mum's then head to one of my sisters for the rest of the day. Nice and relaxing not hosting anything this year...........

Hope everyone's good.......

I'm slower than usual today, not following along but sounds like mac deciphered...

She's a Mod, they must be be invested with super powers when it comes to thread interpretations!

Safe trip Carole, have fun!

My family is dropping like flies, both a bad cold (courtesy of me) and now a messy stomach virus running thru 3 different households. They can keep the tummy troubles, eek. Watching GD later today while her 'rents wrap her presents. Wonder how long I can hold my breath?

Everybody ready for Xmas? Surprised yesterday that it was rather dead in the stores - hooray. Had hoped to finish up including grocery run but Ran out of steam. My stitches had to come out early as dr's office closed till the new year. It wasn't quite time. Literally, holding myself together with tape/nee surgistrips/butterfly bandages. There must be an art to applying them properly that I haven't mastered.talk about all thumbs.

Got me hair colored & vigorously chopped off...I'm told it's a lob. Took off the blunt bottom so not as heavy and now ever-so slightly angled longer in front. It's the first 'big girl' haircut I think I've ever had lol. Just so sick of long hair taking forever to dry. Jury is out with the mr . Ever get your hair cut and you walk in the house and they look like this, then try to regroup saying it looks 'great' LMAO.

We also partied with Mickey last night. It was a great calm, not cold night. Hehe, popcorn Santa Mickey was used to hold the cookies we did not eat. Nice he is on a lanyard. He will join our popcorn vampire Mickey. Went and picked up older one's order from an Amazon locker near here. Easy. Then had breakfast and are now ready to wake the kids in about a half hour. Need to be out of the room in a timely manner by end of checkout time. We will hit the Poly pool before we head to Shamu. Started off the vacation with an almost 4 hour flight delay. An arrival of 3:40am we did. I don't rember taking off and woke up right as landing. Time we got out of the airport was after 4am. Then made the kids eat with Gina Gina and her DH at the PBR restaurant at 10am. Not too bad to park at CityWalk, then caught the boat. Nice spread and we were full. Then room had a dead reader that was not resolved until the wee hours. Needless to say, we were not in the best party mode, but we still had fun. Next, lazy day that I had planned, and now that it is here, I am a smart mama. Teens do run out of steam sometimes. Rookies!

Will post a picture or two. DS got a great shot of the castle, so I will ask him for it. Hope fully he clouded it, but I did not see it in there yet.

Oh yeah, and it is FRIDAY, and the need for a funny:

[macraven]

I'm at Walmart buying groceries
Not a bit crowded here and all check out lines have staff and no customers in them


Such a difference from Christmas shopping where I came from up North
Unbelievable!

Peeps walking around in the store with shorts and tees
"What's wrong with that picture "?

Hope Lynne is having fun on her vacation

Having a lazy day at home with football this afternoon and steak dinner tonight, loving the holiday weekend in the 70's.

Happy Christmas eve homies!

Keisha hope you and the family are feeling better. Get well soon. Love the minions Christmas rock show.

Tink enjoy your day of rest and football. You and Trey have a Merry Christmas.

HAppy Holidays y'all!



Question - I'm thinking of going to the park on the 30th solo. I've never done it solo before. I know some of you have. Is anything special that you usually like to do on your solo visits?

 

[macraven]

I go solo all the time

You can do whatever you want at any time

Once you do it a few times, you'll enjoy it

You can do repeat rides with no one saying oh no, not again
You can do the surveys and get money and food as you will have the time to

Most I was paid for the tv show test was $40.... Which was spent on sweets and butterbeer


72 now
Thought it was in the 69's yesterday but after I watched the 11 clock news last night, found out it really was 70 yesterday also

You know the bottom will drop out in January
But last NYE it was 79 here.....

I'm guessing I'm not allowed to do the surveys. They did try to get me to do it last time I was in the park and it would have paid $25. They even tried to get hubby to do one that was $15. We told him we didn't think we could do it since my husband works there but he brushed it off - I think he was desperate for women in my age group to do it so he was going to ignore that detail. We didn't want to risk it nor spend the time reading the fine print so we didn't do it. However, since it's just me and I don't work there, I'll ask to see the fine print if they're approach me again.
