Something About Nothing ... #12

[tink1957]

Yikes wags! Hope the boys get better before you leave.

Robo...glad you got your shot, you should be rash free soon. It's been a few years since I had to get a steroid shot thankfully...used to get them every year as I could look at poison ivy the wrong way and be covered in blisters. I outgrew it I guess since now I only get an occasional rash that's easily treated with technu.

I keep meaning to check out the unmasking tour and somehow skip it every time...hopefully not this year if my budget allows.

Carole...never done Disney with small children, don't think that I would want to either. Maybe one day if I ever have grandkids...

The hand is improving and the swelling has gone down a little each day.

Bedtime for me...good night my friends at this point I would usually post the sleepy cat...but I'm still mad at cats in general so I'll leave you with

Night Tink. Glad to hear the hand is doing better .

Benedryl has kicked in. Time for beddy whites party for me too.

Left the lights on for the night owl's.

 

[macraven]

Guess you are talking about me

Thanks for leaving the light on
Can't take a chance and fall in the dark

You feeling better Robo ?
Pray that you are

Oh no tink!!
Not the cat... he/she did not mean it bite your hand
It was the chicken she wanted
So bring back the cat smiley

Wags.... if I said the preds are shining would that make you smile?

Seriously, pray the kids improve greatly and quickly on the meds

Is the antibiotic they are on have a warning about too much sunshine?

Hope you have safe travels and healthy kids the day you start your drive to Orlando

Teo night owls we are missing are tinyD
and pc this morning

I'm here! Finishing up some packing and out in a few hours. Popcorn bucket and red cup were in the truck first along with our lanyards. Priorities right??!!

 

[macraven]

Of course they were in the truck

You are always going up and down the highway to Orlando!

Keep them in the truck so you always have them

Wag......congrats on the grad and hope they feel better soon.........

Robo, glad you're on the mend and ready for your trip.......yep, little kids just ain't fun unless it's your own.......

Vicki, glad you're on the mend too........I don't like cats........much.

pc......have a fabulous time........I know you will though.........

Mac.........you're still up again..........


Both of mine are leaving early this morning.........DS has the new Managing Director coming in to meet them and DH has a very early meeting........if it saves a trip to Saudi he'd go in in the middle of the night........

I need tea.......and bacon.......although it's pancakes and fruit this morning......no bacon till Saturday.

 

[macraven]

Yup

 

[schumigirl]

Pancakes and fruit on offer here.......

Gorgeous day here so far, although it isn't even 8am yet......load of laundry to do so will get it washed, dry, ironed and put past.........I'm such a sad person........that makes me happy!

Good Thursday Morning to you all!

Only 9,936,000 seconds until my vacation!!!

Tink, I hope kitty gets back in your good graces.

I've done Disney with little kids.. it's kind of amazing. To see the fascination and wonder in their eyes is incredible... until they either get over tired or over excited.. then.. not so much incredible as 'get these %$#^ kids away from me!'

Thirsty is surely the word today. Hot and Hazy are the other words for the day. No heat wave for us. 91 yesterday, 92 today, and rain overnight, sadly 80 tomorrow. Bad hair day too as that humidity is not my hair's friend. Poofy hair anyone? Yesterday at 6am it was 64, today at 6am, it was 72. Yeah, I wanted warmer air, but this jump to a summer day is not what I had in mind.

Well, booked my December flights. Not being a SW hub is getting to be really annoying. Very few direct flights now. Sigh. But at least I am booked, and within 6 minutes, higher fares shown. It's going to be a rinse and repeat for both the rental and airfare. At least that now means almost all the pieces of the puzzle for the holiday trip are done. That darn 180 is on a Saturday. Yes, I will be up early, trying to get those coveted ADRS. For Universal, not worried about that until closer. Seems I reserved via Open Table Margaritaville the last time, but now they are not doing reservations and are not on Open Table any more. Wonder if they'll honor hotel priority. Also wondering how far in advance have to reserve either chairs or cabana in VB. I'm tossed, but may splurge for the cabana. It depends on how long we intend to be in there. We can certainly share 2 chairs between the 3 of us.

So, have a great day!

Those ready for the road, safe travels my friends.

Wags, sorry to hear of the strep throats. Hope the kids feel better soon. How about that hockey!

Drink up, it's Thursday!

Do you hire out?

Good morning

Still holding out for cheaper flight prices although I'm tempted to book each leg separately since my departing fare is low ($49) but the return fare is still high compared to last year ...guess I'll just wait a few weeks to see. I could always add another day if it's a break even

Did someone say bacon?

Thanks all for the well wishes. It hasn't hit the youngest as hard as it has the oldest. He has gone in to try and take his last 3 exams. If he doesn't get through them all, he'll still have tomorrow to finish. The oldest has been running a high fever with it (what a way to celebrate your week after graduation)...thinking that might have broken during the night, normal temp this morning...but we'll see. Yeah, pretty much all antibiotics can cause sun sensitivity...by the time we get to the parks, they will be 7 days into dosage (of 10)...they do not normally wear sunscreen, but we will be insisting this trip...I can't live without the stuff. We were planning to head out to Bridgestone Arena and join the Preds party, tonight, but doesn't seem to be in the cards...oh well, we'll be glued to the TV, instead.

For those hitting the parks, this weekend, have fun and be safe. We hit Orlando Sunday afternoon, but don't hit UOR until Tuesday.

I have very reasonable rates....................I hates housework!!

$49 a flight!!! I won't scare you with our flight costs this year..........

Bacon on Saturday Vicki........don't be late hope the hand is better!


Quietish day today.........chatted to friend who lives in Saudi for 2 hours after lunch........she wants to come home. Another year left to do out there. Bless her. Did get all laundry done though.....

Tonight's dinner is home made beefburgers topped with spicy pulled pork in a bun and baked sweet potato fries.......onions for DH......extra jalapeños for me.......DS is just having the burger and fries.......made a cheesecake for dessert.......while to go yet though....

Been a gorgeous day.........

Before we had kids, we said we wouldn't take kids to Disney/Universal until they were out of strollers. Then the in-laws scheduled us all to meet at Disney/Universal for their 50th anniversary. (They didn't know I was pregnant at the time they scheduled it). So, we ended up doing our first with-kids trip with a 2 month old and barely 3 year old. It was a week that went over Memorial Day weekend too, so not low crowds. We did a lot better than we had expected and learned a lot. We then wanted to do it right so we went back 6 months later! Hubby and I went to Universal/Disney for three years in a row pre-kids. I'm glad we didn't have to give that up once we had kids. (Though, I am loving that we can finally sometimes go without the kids!)

BELLO Sans family. Having a sit down for late lunch.


Something scary for Chucker's since we can't get him in a haunted house at HHN.


Oh and one for Schumi

 

[Robo56]

For Mac, Tink and Wagman67 fella's and all who are ailing get well soon.
