Something About Nothing ... #12

Not really Robo. Just that DH picks some really odd ones to watch. I feel ya, that wind is biting and some rain, though looked like snow, was falling. HeHe, news guy said to have a hat and gloves for the baseball game today, clarified to mean winter ones. Hope your coffee stays hot and plentiful, and happy to hear you survived the traffic and weather and made it home safely.

I bet Patty and Charade are not enjoying this cool weather either.
 
Greetings everyone. I am at work and have nothing to to. It will probably be very quiet here for the next 2 weeks. One of our therapists is going on a long vacation.

I may leave a bit early today since I am so bored. This afternoon I am taking B to her first SAT prep class then we have to drive out to Roanoke to pick up her prom dress. We tried getting it last week but I was not satisfied with some of the alterations. Hopefully they have resolved the problem.

Lynne - You are correct. I am not enjoying this cooler weather. There is the possibility of snow in our forecast on Saturday.

Macraven - We may be looking at patio furniture this summer. We need to get our deck repaired first. I am also looking forward to getting a grill.

Patty - You will enjoy Miami winters. I can remember being at the neighborhood pool with my daughter while my northern friends were shoveling snow.

Hello to Schumi, Keisha, Robo, Tink, and anyone else I may have missed.

It’s almost lunchtime. I think I’ll go get a pizza and take it home for me and B.
 
Charade, good luck with B's prom dress. I was lucky, little one's fit her perfect except the length. My Dsis in law, expert seamstress, hemmed it, and it's just the right length now. Pizza for lunch sounds good. I'm not sure what I am having. Have a doctor's appointment, so leaving a little early too. And we also get snow on Saturday. With a 9 am soccer game scheduled an hour and a half away that morning. Good think my car is an AWD.

We go from clouds to sun, and it still feels cool. That wind.......
 
We went to Roanoke year before last
Nice town
Hope the alterations are correct
Prom is so much fun for the teens

We have a screened in porch with full roof and an open deck
Our deck needs work done on it but that will be dealt with next year

I only use it for the grill

Lynne, pizza is good anytime of the day
 

Woke up to 20 degree wind chill and snow showers this am. Not going to improve much for next week as weatherman states. Lock him up :)

High winds yesterday & night before, a barn was literally flattened by a ‘microburst’. We kept losing power, I gave up on taxes and polished them off this am. Sun is shining now at least!

Good sleepy morning everyone. The cat decided that I needed to get up 30 minutes earlier than I had the alarm set for.
Today I am regretting not planning some sort of trip for spring break. B is already bored. Most of her friends have plans for the week. One of them is on her way to to visit a college today - in Hawaii. Poor B, the only things on her schedule this week are a hair cut today and starting an SAT prep class tomorrow. She does have some weekend plans that should be fun though.

Patty - My husband really liked teaching at Barry, it was just south FL that we were tired of. After 6 years in FL we were ready for a change. I do miss being just a few hours from Orlando though. We are in Virginia now.

Keisha - Sorry about the tablecloth. Any chance the sharpie can be washed out?

MonyK - Happy birthday to your son.

Robo - I miss Atlanta, but do not miss driving in that traffic.

Buckeev - I hope you have an awesome trip. I keep dreaming that I am back at Universal. I guess I want to go back more then I realize.

Lynne - Hope you are feeling better. Sometimes sleep is the best thing.

It’s now the time I had my alarm set for. I guess I should get up and start gettting ready for work.

I’m going to embroider her ‘mistakes’ and give to her when she has her own house

Definitely will share my chicken parm. 37 degrees-rain- winds gusting to 50mph. Think I saw hail at one point!

Lynne, I'm going past the tea to needing a Long Island Iced tea. I did look a little drunk driving to work this morning as the wind kept blowing my car from side to side!

Polish girl here- pigs in the blanket were my mom's specialty. Dad wasn't a cabbage fan- she made them without cabbage for him-a tasty meatball at that point. Maybe your little one would like that?

You had me at chicken parm! Drool . Nobody here will eat it besides me. Order it out whenever I get a chance.

Halupki Double drool. I make roaster full & freeze individual portions.

Morning everyone :wave:. Nice cup of hot coffee in hand :surfweb:.

Was interesting drive back to southern Indiana. Traffic getting through Atlanta, Chattanooga and Nashville was heavy. Then we went through severe wind, rain and and a impressive lightening display on the other side of Clarksville. Was glad to pull into garage at the end of the trip.

Mac right after I sent you the email yesterday evening the Tornado warning sirens went off here. Then temps dropped another 10 degrees with rain, thunder and wind, but no major storm.

It was 35 this morning when I woke up. This is not the Flordia warm weather my bones are used to.

At least the sun is shining this morning :sunny:



Lynne do you have any favorite TV shows you like to watch?

Talk about a homecoming!

Leads to my frame of mind day-dreaming re HHN but Didn’t the AHS house feature Roanoke? I have yet to pick up watching the series, couldn’t get thru the 1st few episodes. On that bucket list tho lol mostly because HHN is so focused upon it.
 
Yes they did

Good house also

I did three nights prior to the private tour that year

Once the tour guide explained in depth about the house, I really understood it and more enjoyable for me
 
Lynne - you are so fortunate to have a seamstress in the family. B’s dress had to be taken in a bit in the top and also shortened. The skirt has 3 or 4 layers. It was the last layer that we had problems with. It looked like the sesmstress just waded it up ad stitched it. I wish I had taken a picture.

Macraven - I would so love to have a screened in porch. Caspian (my cat) would really enjoy it. I am thinking of going him some sort of catio when we get the deck fixed.

I left work early, Now I’m thinking about a nap.

Thirsty Thursday!
Now I want pizza. May stop on way home- currently at hair appointment getting the grey covered:D
left work early, Now I’m thinking about a nap
Naps are always good

Will be fairly nice today, although high cloud cover. Still some blue sky before front bringing the snow rolls in tomorrow evening.

Soccer tonight. Saturday's game should be interesting in the cold (if it's not cancelled).

Happy Friday eve!
 
Hi everyone!!!

It's been a crazy morning at work today!

Even crazier to keep watching sun/clouds/SNOW!! I saw yesterday that many flights out of Buffalo were cancelled with the extreme winds!

6 more days until Orlando! I will probably bring a cold front to Florida! Will be glad to see younger boy! We're planning to do some non-theme park activities when we're there this time as we're taking my elderly mom. Can't see her on The Mummy!!

Charade- love your cat's name- Caspian! and a catio! never heard that before-how cute. My cats have various condos/cat trees all over the house.

Monyk- enjoy your salon appt! I make sure to go every 5 weeks- don't want to know if there's any gray!
 
I’m with you Patty.......every 5 weeks or as near as for colour and cut......I don’t want to see the grey come through........assuming there are any of course.......:rolleyes1:rolleyes1:rolleyes1

Keish, your weather sounds like ours last night........felt like a horror movie howling wind! Today is beautiful.



Speaking of naps........I had one today too........DH said one minute I was texting, the next I was asleep......slept for an hour and it felt great!!! So Charade I can agree naps are good.........

Dinner was roasted salmon and roasted cod for DS........lush!!

But.........5 weeks today till overnight at airport...........:)
 
That's it!! HHN needs to add a house- Northern Weather! Scariest one yet!

schumi- you have the best dinners! I think it's pizza night here!

Lol........I love old Black and white movies set in old huge huge houses with the wind howling around it........I’d love a house like that.........

I adore pizza....... but we are trying to be good as we both put on a ton of weight in Orlando.......not quite sure how that happened.........:rotfl:

Enjoy your pizza though! Not jealous at all..........:D

He preferred cod over salmon?

Blink & it’ll be here :). Think it’s 3 weeks for us. Yes, i’m Still switching things around :)

Hmmm wonder if they could use glasses (akin to 3-D) and get that desired B&W effect? Those rooms years’ past with heavy strobes along those lines were pretty cool!

Two of the sleeper houses have ahem revisited me over the years. Alice (where if you timed a room near the end just right it was unexpectedly but mighty gory) & La Larona (general subject matter & especially church scene).

Lol.....yes, he’s not fond of salmon, I buy cod loin where there is not a single bit of skin and bone in......I prefer that cut of cod too, very chunky.........

I loved La Larona house.......it was very creepy! Alice must have been a year I missed I believe......don’t recognise that name.

I loved Psychoscareapy house in The Bloody Mary year.......08 I believe.......that one spooked me to bits! Poor Todd almost gave me a piggy back in that house.......Tom and Kyle were howling with laughter, I wouldn’t let go of him.......:rotfl:

Oh 3D glasses with B&W effect.......that would be cool..........

You still switching things around..........:scratchin
 
Salmon is one fish Mr Mac refuses to eat
I don't make fish at home, so he will order fish when we go out to eat.
Always do one night a week out and another if he does not like whats on the menu at home.

I'm not about to cook just for myself.
Easier to get something out then.


Yea....Larona house was a good one!
 
Back from Roanoke and ready to crash. We got to the shop around 6:15. B tried on the dress, I carefully inspected it, it looked good so I paid for the alterations and we left. We decided to stop by the mall since we were so close. Did a little shopping and then got dinner. We went to a restaurant that B says we have been to before, but I don’t remember it. We both ended up ordering from the “light” menu. By the time we were done it was 8:30 and we had a hour drive home.

MonyK - The nap was nice. I just wish it had been a bit longer.

Patty - It took us a little while to come up with a name for the cat. My husband kept suggesting ridiculous names. We had decided that all 3 of us had to agree on the name. We started naming characters from our favorite movies. Dh suggested Aslan, but I didn’t think it was a good fit. Then he said Caspian and both B and I agreed immediately.

Schumi - One of B’s favorite foods is salmon. That’s actually what she had for supper tonight.

I am envious of those of you who have Florida trips planned soon. I really want to go back. It looks like we aren’t going anywhere until 2019.

Lynne do you have any favorite TV shows you like to watch?

Glad to see you survived the potholes in Nashville. Our roads are absolutely horrible right now!
 
And the winds are back.........so much for spring!!! Least it’s not raining........

:wave2: To houseofthrees.........nice to see you here........



So, thought about going back to bed this morning.......DS left for his office around 6.45.......I didn’t want tea so early........but heard DH up and in the shower so thought ok we’re up......no back to bed this morning.

Going to get another piece of furniture for our sitting room today........there’s a guy who makes oak furniture to order and he’s usually pretty quick despite a fairly small workforce. It’s just a small side piece we want for a large table lamp.

Then a weekend of the Bahrain Grand Prix..........practices, qualifying then the race Sunday! Yep......not much work done this weekend.........

Have a good Friday.........:D
 
Lunchtime for Schumi. Sounds like a fun week-end with car races watching. Nice end table too.

Yeah, older one will eat salmon, and most other seafood too. Me, no way, though I did have a small piece one time I was in Alaska. Little restaurant deep in the woods, and cook told me it would not taste fishy. It did not. I am sure that salmon was caught not that long before. Silver salmon were running while I was there. My colleague stationed there, went fishing at 10pm at night, right in town, and was not the lone fisherman. Ah late summer days, most of the people were out all night.

Agree Charade, a late night school night is not my idea of fun. Lucky, the soccer practice was scheduled for 1/2 hour away, then 10 minutes away, then 5 minutes away. Little one drove herself to practice. And came home with coffee and munchkins. Yes, a DD is not far from the field. She said she was cold from practice. Yes, did you not see we were in the 30's, with 20's wind chills last night? You have under armour stuff.
Hey, Houseofthrees, yep, this time of year, we have pot hole dodging too. Seems the 4 Nor'easters and icy winter we had, needed lots of salt brine on the roads. I'm waiting for Spring. :daisy:


th


Yep, glad it is Friday, and pizza for lunch.

Rainy start. And wouldn't you know, figured I could run from the car, and not use my umbrella. Within 5 steps from the car, my shoe unties. Eww, wet shoe laces. One thing I hate feeling. And it's cool here again, 38 out, but less windy.

With that, I need tea. And heated seat in my office. LOL

It's a wet Friday, and a fun, and frisky Friday, homies.

:rockband:
 
Good morning Schumi, Lynne, Mac, Monyk, Pattyw, charade67, Keisha, Tink :wave2:

And a dancing chihuahua for Friday celebration.........LOL......:laughing:


Good morning :wave: houseofthrees........Nashville has gotten to be bit of a nail-biter to drive through over the past few years, but it is the most direct route for me to travel back and forth from Southern Indiana to Florida. Used to be that Atlanta was the only hold up on the route now Chattanooga and Nashville are to.

Nashville has grown a lot over the years. I do like to take a trip down there with daughter-in-law and granddaughter sometimes to shop. We went to Green Hills Mall last time we were there and had a nice time shopping.
