Something About Nothing ... #12

[pattyw]

Oh my goodness so glad she is OK!!! Can recover from soreness and aches and things can be replaced, how incredible scary.
Mac please let us know if there is anything she needs that we can do. It's funny how I may have not met people IRL but feel like I know y'all.


Pics of how to make grumpy kids happy- ocean, sun, boogie boards

I know Monyk- I haven't met any of you in person but I feel like I know you all the same! We do bond here!

Nice picture!! I'm not brave enough for boogie boards! Just some wading is all I can do!!

 

[macraven]

Homies, thanks for keeping Robbie in your thoughts and prayers.
She had her second surgery afer Mothers day and was not healed completely up yet.
The car accident was not a good thing.
She said in an email to me she aches so bad now

Anyone that has been in a car accident usually really feels the bruising and aches that next day.
So I assume this is par for the course.

Don't know if it would bother her if I shared this, but she wrote to me that it was scary to see a truck coming straight at her and she could do nothing.
It happened so quickly.
Semi went across the middle section of the highway and hit a car, then bounce back and hit her car.

I'll let her share the details.

Oh, she did ask me to remember prayers for the child and man that were hit harder than her.
He has broken bones and the child she thought was okay

 

[schumigirl]

Well that's a way to start a morning!

Love the pics MonyK! I’m not brave enough to go in the sea.....ever.....unless it’s paddling at Clearwater.......

Yep, great way to start the morning.


Mac, she knows we have her in our thoughts I’m sure........must have been terrifying..........she will be in so much pain!! Bless her..........




Highlight of tonight........I stabbed myself in the thumb with a knife......a little knife.......I should stick to bigger knives, they are much safer and easier to use. So much blood!!!! Finally stopped.........

Trying to decide what to watch now qualifying is off.......our guy got pole position!!

Looking forward to race tomorrow..........

Wow-that is scary and a blessing that she is ok. I know there's still healing to be done, though.

Robbie- when you read this please know that you are in my prayers and wishing you speedy healing! I know that I've not met you yet, but all of us here share so much about our lives, that I consider everyone here my friend!
And I'll absolutely pray for all of the others involved and touched by this accident!

Sounds like the Halloween trailer that you saw has wreaked havoc on you today, Carole! First, Tom and the laundry room scare, now knives and blood!! Hope this evening is calmer for you- a few cocktails perhaps??

pattyw, we all are so happy you joined us here.
It is a nice group of people and everyone plays nice.
(really seems like you have been with us for years.....)


I have had this thread in continuation since April 2007

Part 1: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1416196


Have met in person many homies that posted in the first year and throughout the years of this thread .

Some come and go and some return after being gone years....
And we pick up more peeps frequently



Always a delight to have all homies to drop back in and play ketchup with us.



When someone new posts here, the others, sooner or later will welcome you.
When someone from the past returns, many times they share with us how they have been doing to catch us up with them.



I tell everyone, once you post in the SAN thread, you are a homie and always one of us!

Robbie - oh dear, was so sorry to hear your accident. Praying for you!

Started the day weeding flower garden, chauffeur duties, helped the mr finally get his truck tonneau placed , jumped in pool before TS rolled thru and can’t wait to dig into my ribs that have been cooking all day in crock pot. House smells dive. If I could get some divine intervention and my longshot wins in the Belmont I’d be happy lol

Thinking about going to see Hereditary again after work tomorrow. But I'm also seeing the Mister Rogers documentary Saturday morning so I don't wanna overdo it lol

We miss that ‘neighbor’ in the ‘burgh. A great man indeed.

It is almost midnight and I am finally here.....

Had a busy day and sat a long time at the hair salon.
Yes, had the works done.

So now I am playing ketchup here.







Kohlby....you're back!!!

woohoo.....

you've been missed here.

for those that don't know her, she was very active with us before.




Since I want to be in bed before midnight, I'm just passing by for a moment and finish up reading emails before i go to bed.

I will leave the light on so no one will stumble over the dogs or cats when they come home tonight.

Didn’t eat after midnight did you? Gremlins & all lol

It happened yesterday and reason I guess it was on the news with video is that the highway was closed down

The one thing she added to me when she sent me the email was....

How much do I send you for the hhn private tour
I’m good for it

She has been hit by a semi and her worry is mailing me.....

No broken bones, very very sore and bruised
Hospital sent her home where she is now

Please keep her in your prayers

She got that new caddy suv about a week ago but cars can be fixed or replaced
I don’t think she is upset about the car but wants to heal and feel better

Glad you shared the news, keep us posted please

You won’t believe this.......well, knowing me so well, you might ........I have never seen Gremlins!

Tom and even Kyle love it.......but I lasted 31.5 seconds.........and declared it a duff!!! Actually there’s a few movies folks don’t believe I’ve never seen............Star Wars anyone.......I’ve heard that’s quite a popular movie......

Loving the sound of those ribs........

We’ve had wine and now onto champagne cocktails.......but got the munchies now........

 

[Lynne G]

Oh Schumi, you have had a day, and hoping you are still enjoying some wine.

Little one had training today, just called, said she was starving. Guess I had better make dinner, or Chinese or Pizza.

Happy thoughts may all homies have, and a restful Saturday evening.

 

[pattyw]

Done with our housework, etc. Going out to dinner tonight. Feeling like seafood- so we're off to Red Lobster!!

Have a great night all!!

 

[Charade67]

Good evening everybody. I don’t know where the day went. I slept in today getting up around 10:00. We went to the movies late last night to see The Muppet Movie. We have a theater that shows second run movies for $3 and they are doing a “classics” series. The theater had mostly adults. I guess we were all there for the nostalgia.

It looks like we are finally going to get our deck repaired. DH got several quotes and today we chose a contractor. Once we get the deck repaired we are going to get a grill. I don’t think I’ve ever had a grill.

We had thunderstorms again this evening. When they finally subsided we decided to go to Olive Garden for supper. The closer we got the worse the rain was. We finally just turned around and headed to a restaurant closer to home.

Charade - I'm impressed you had so many of the dance DVD 's.

I have every video since she was in first grade. I regret not buying the videos from her first two years.

Received good news about Kyle's fiancee and her job search in Ft. Lauderdale. She got a job offer from Plantation General Hospital for a labor/delivery nurse!! So, they have a place to live and she has a job! Next, the big move!!

Congratulations to her. B was born not too far away at Coral Springs Medical Center.

TGIF! Just sitting here with my coffee and browsing through the recent posts and wishing I had a summer vacation plan. No such luck but I will just continue my mini vacations every weekend. Schumi (was it Schumi?) I stole your "bored minion meme" I need that one.

No summer vacation plans here either. We have a mini vacation coming up next week after we visit my mother. I don’t count her visit as a vacation since she lives in the middle of nowhere.

Shopping done, and older one has declared there is nothing good on TV. Hence cable Spongebob. I need to check cable on my iPad, there is only so much of that cartoon I can take.

I looked at B’s yearbook and several of the seniors had quotes from Spongebob. I asked her not to do that next year and she said. “I’ve never watched Spongebob.”

Came inside for a break and am drowning in paperwork!! I have mail to go through from last week, bills and such to sort, and I have to organize my travel folder! I have a few trips worth of information, receipts, etc all together!! I've been putting this off as my job involves paperwork- I'm an accountant so I look at paperwork & spreadsheets all day so I don't feel like doing my own when I get home!! It got cloudy anyway!!

I used to be an AP clerk, and now I’m stuck with all the family finances and paperwork. I don’t dare let dh handle it though.

I know Monyk- I haven't met any of you in person but I feel like I know you all the same! We do bond here!

I’m one of the newer members here, but I did get tto meets Lynne very briefly back in December. Hopefully one day I will have another vacation that coincides with someone else in this group.

Highlight of tonight........I stabbed myself in the thumb with a knife......a little knife.......I should stick to bigger knives, they are much safer and easier to use. So much blood!!!! Finally stopped.........

Yikes and ouch! I have a little scar on my pinky finger where I foolishly used a food slicer without the finger guard.


Continued prayers for Robo and the others involved in the wreck.

 

[Charade67]

Missed one.

They are lucky kids- had to drag them out to eat. They will be crashing tonight. Hubs and girl child going parasailing tomorrow, trying to convince son to do helicopter tour with me.

This sounds like something B would want to do. I’m too much of a wimp when it comes to heights.

 

[macraven]

Had no idea what I wanted to eat tonight after I did a food pick up for son at Panera

Ended up picking up food at Krystal for me

Hope all the homies are doing fine

 

[RAPstar]

We went to a restaurant called Celebration. It's home-style/country/comfort food. I had pot roast. The table shares 3 vegs and we had mashed potatoes, roasted squash, and a sauteed vegetable medley. Then I got gelato on the way home.

I just noticed I passed 5000 posts. Woo!

 

[macraven]

Now you are running with the pack Andy.
Congrats on the 5000 mark...

 

[tink1957]

Wow, I missed alot today.

Robbie is just as wonderful in person as she is here on the SANs ...praying for a quick recovery for everyone involved but I know it takes a long time to get over the mental trauma of an accident. I still think about getting t-boned every time I pass the place my wreck happened on the way home from work a few years ago. I can only imagine how terrifying it was to see a semi coming at her. It's a good thing she was in a Cadillac as they are well made.
Sending lots of hugs

Patty, I had seafood tonight too. I made fried shrimp and curly fries for dinner. I don't eat fried very often but I'm starting my diet again in a few days so what the hay.

Congrats on reaching 5000 Robbie
I have a long way to go to catch up with you.

Have a great night everyone...time for me to try to sleep since I have to get up at 6 am

 

[schumigirl]

Yikes and ouch! I have a little scar on my pinky finger where I foolishly used a food slicer without the finger guard.

Tom hates watching me using the mandolin...…..I always user the guard, but he still hates me using it...….that would have been a sore one...….


Vicki, hope you slept great...…..I adore Shrimp too!!!! Good luck with the diet....it`s never ending at times isn't it......



So, off out to the Mercedes showroom where we buy all our cars from and have done for years...….....they have an S550 and an S65 AMG in for a short time so we have to go and get a drive of them......

All other plans for today straight out the window...…..glad the Canadian Grand Prix isn't on till tonight now...……


Have a great Sunday...……..

 

[Monykalyn]

Supposed to be a sleep in Sunday, but I awoke with stuffy/runny nose and cough- yep kiddo shared his cold with me. So I got up to take more cold meds (actually started yesterday but I felt great on beach-all that Vitamin D?). Finally got around to dinner last night, we were so tired that none of us were hungry- or so we thought until we found this Italian place. Smell hit us as soon as you walked indoor- garlic and basil and tomato sauce simmering and yeasty pizza dough baking-mmmm. Calzones were monster sized- split one with my son, I felt I ate a ton and still had so much leftover it barely fit into take away box. The red sauce was soooo good I could have just drank it. Place seemed a favorite of locals too, and was pretty busy- all good signs. Did some shopping at Ron Jons Surf shop before dinner too.
Parasailing today, then hearing back to Orlando. Dinner tonight with the newly discovered daughter and her family. If we have enough energy maybe pop into a Uni park for an hour or too and upgrade tickets to Season passes...


I don't use a mandolin unless I need potatoes sliced th and really even (like for a gratin). I prefer my sharp kitchen/chef knife instead for most things. I feel like I could easily slice a finger off with the mandolin even with the guard, safer for me to stick with just a knife lol!

You know those "suggested" threads/sites at bottom of page on the iPad here on disboards? There has been some.. interesting "suggestions" lately.
'How to get banned for life'
'Why men lose interest'
'Pancreatic cancer sign' What is the universe trying to tell me????

 

[Lynne G]

Hehe, I get all sorts of suggested ads here and in Facebook. Some I chuckle at, but most I ignore, MonyK. Hope your cold goes away quick.

Hehe, weather guy said, some of us are hot and some are not. That sums up our national weather. For us, high is 70, and heavy rain throughout the night. Phone says 90 percent chance of rain, starting at 3 pm. So, some shopping this morning. Little one left for training a half hour ago, I had to holler to get her move faster. Both my kids better copy my yelling for an alarm, when I am not home or they aren’t, and have to wake up.

With that, I hear older one up, and the smell of the bacon I put in the oven is wafting in the air. Time to get breakfast started.

Robo, I hope you are feeling less sore today. Sending prayers and mummy dust to you, and all involved in the accident.

Schumi, enjoy the test drives on those cars. Nice your dealership got them in, for you to try them out.

Super sized Sunday to ya, homies. Take care, and enjoy your coffee, tea, and lots of good food.
