Something About Nothing ... #12

[Monykalyn]

Lots of coffee for me. Thankfully the ice/sleet missed us (SW MO macraven) so the highways should be clear. Freezing rain during morning or evening commute is the worst Lynne-be careful!

Glad to hear you are on the mend Schumi- hope others who have this crud are as well.

Started rereading Wrinkle in Time again- not sure how that's gonna translate to a movie but we will see...

And off to Joplin-bout an hour away-just long enough to listen to a dis podcast

 

[Lynne G]

Glad to hear the bad weather missed you MonyK, safe travels.

I think I read Wrinkle in Time long ago, not sure if I want to see the movie of it or not. I'm trying to get little one to come with me to see any movie. No current ones seem to interest her. Older one is waiting to see Black Panther. I may go to see that one too.

More tea. Later.

Good morning everyone

Glad to hear our Carole is on the mend and hope buck and everyone else who is feeling puny gets better soon.

I'm just sitting here in the candlelight waiting for our power to be restored after thunderstorms came through this morning. Yesterday it hit 70 so this is the price we pay for the beautiful day.

I think I might read a wrinkle in time before we see the movie...I may or may not have read it in the past ...my old brain plays tricks on me sometimes

Happy camel day to all

Long day for me again
Think we will go out for dinner tonight instead of hitting a grocery store and cooking this evening


Since my surgery been doing blood work and hope I finally pass.......lol
Today’s draw was ....ouchie!

No rain here as predicted
Temps are rising soon will be upper 60’s and almost 70

Main reason I moved South was to avoid ice, sleet, frigid temps and snow


For the homies North of me, hope your weather warms up and no more ice storms

 

[Lynne G]

Rain is still falling. But, ice is gone. Here is hoping most of the wet is gone by morning, as below freezing tonight, as another arctic blast will blow the clouds out to sea, meaning clearing skies and dropping temperature.

Well, DH will sleep in his office and little one went over her friend’s house. DH to not fight with the crowds to get to work tomorrow and little one is going to the parade with her friend’s family. She better get some good pictures. Me, lucky that traffic not where I go, and will see highlights online from local stations.

Quiet night.

 

[Monykalyn]

Snow mostly melted except in shadows-with high in 50's to near 60 on Friday-then wintry mix Saturday and Sunday. Chickens tired of being in coop and braved the snow to get to sunny part of yard. Well except the diva. She will try to get someone to get her -must have worked- Came home to her napping on my chair, with DD on couch doing homework.

Soccer tonight. DH was supposed to take him but got stuck in walk through and meeting for chili cook off. Just got my team names yesterday and need to have contacted them by Friday. Was going to do that tonight -so either I'm up late now or attempt tomorrow...they have to have their bean order in by then (free beans). But I think all my teams were there last few years so they should know the drill.

Is it really only Wednesday?

Oldest DD finally advanced to web interview and now has phone interview the 16th- she's hoping for the internship in Disneyland this summer. For summer alumni program. not sure what she'll do if offered back at Florida instead...

 

[Lynne G]

Haha, my cousin just posted on Facebook a YouTube of a kid getting chased by a rooster. Yep, when we were young, my uncle had a farm, and yep, roosters would chase us. That, and the goats would try to knock you over. It was where we got the first dog I remember.

 

[Squirlz]

Who beside Keisha is going to get the snow and cold?
Lynne?
Monyk, are you Missouri?
Some parts I saw in the weather channel you will have the sleet
Ugh

Think that is worse than snow

My area is fine
Now raised up to 56
(60’s for weekend)

And great chance of rain tonight and tomorrow night

We need it!

We're being warned of "the biggest Winter storm of the season" for tomorrow. Of course this is the same station that predicted a dusting last Sunday and then we got a foot of snow.

 

[macraven]

Hope you don’t get blasted again

Just looked at a pic you showed on last snow

Hope no one gets blasted with cold, ice, snow



Hey it’s 2:00.....where’s Waldo/Charlie?

 

[KStarfish82]

 

[macraven]

Missed you again
At the rate I’m going, I could be here at 6
Lol

 

[schumigirl]

Yep, weather forecasts can sometimes be unbelievably wrong..........if they predict the apocalypse we know it’s going to be pleasantly warm..........

Hope all don’t get it too bad........

MonyK, good luck for your DD that she gets what she wants to do..........


Still working on this cold.........but, managing to sleep which helps.

And now I’m starving which is a good sign..........chicken soup for lunch.......and maybe a donut my husband picked up for me this morning.......

Cold here but snow is gone again, just a damp cold........not pleasant.

But.........33 days till we leave for overnight at airport..........

Have a great Thursday

Love the diva pic monyk...looks like she's enjoying a glass of wine and watching tv

 

[macraven]

Agree Tink

I looked at the picture twice until I realized it was the grand hen just sitting in the couch like she belongs there

I am guessing they don’t eat a lot of fried chicken

Growing up, the parental units raised chickens
Us kids would gather the eggs from their nests
The day the parents decided to get rid of them and their coops, was when I stopped eating much chicken

You mean she isn’t?

 

[Lynne G]

Spoiled hen. MonyK, she's a lucky lady. LOL

Hope little guppy's bottle is done, and mom's got a break.

Morning Tink! Hope you are having a nice cup of coffee so far. Maybe lucky too, and have breakfast made by DD.

Schumi, yep, we have not so nice cold now too. Not as damp as I thought it would be. Lots of rain yesterday. Glad to hear you got a better night's sleep. I hope you are over your cold quick. Oooh, donut. That sounds good with my tea, that is almost ready.

Ah, 26, with a feels like (wind chill) 11. Per our weather guy, flat out windy, and warning, between the high rise buildings, it will be a wind tunnel. to those waiting for the parade in the city today. Oh that's right, one of them will be little one.

Per traffic guy, at 5:15 am today, some of the train stations had crowds that did not get on the train. Train left at maximum capacity. Why my DH slept in his office last night. Hi early morning train is never full.

Per traffic girl, oh my. Her starting remark on the traffic entering the city.

But, the clouds are clearing, the horizon is bright, a pale, washed out pink. Local channel showed a beautiful sunrise over the city. HeHe, might have seen some green on that horizon.

Yay! Parking lot looks like a holiday Friday. Yeah, I am lucky. Though had to yank the car door open, and peek out the front windshield. Not scraping, but hurry up defroster. Oh, looking kinda shiny, is that ice? Why yes it is. Roads mostly did a good job drying out. Thankful, was not near the accidents where the roads were a bit icy.

 

[Lynne G]

Mac. Good Morning!

 

[macraven]

Morning Lynne!

Now I understand why your spouse slept at his office last night!

Though you two had a spat yesterday so he stayed there

HeHe, when we don't see eye to eye, which is not very often, never go to bed mad at each other. Hope you are feeling better and not in pain. Hope you did get a passing score on blood tests the other day.

 

[Robo56]

Morning everyone. Sun is shining and coffee is good.

Monykalyn love the chicken photo.

Sending hugs and get well thoughts to all who are sick.
