Something About Nothing ... #12

[pattyw]

Middle had a "friend" over-she didn't mention the friend was male when she mentioned friend. NOT ready for this!

I understand! Have a second margarita!

 

[pattyw]

 

[Charade67]

Music recital- sounds nice! What was B's performance?

Her piano piece was Chim Chim Cheree from mary Poppins, For vocal she sang How Does a Moment Last Forever from the live action Beauty and the Beast. She also sang a duet (with the guy from the creepy Phantom song) Do I Love You Because You’re Beautiful from Cinderella.

 

[pattyw]

That sounds amazing, Charade! a proud moment for you and DH!

 

[schumigirl]

Thanks for the belated birthday wishes for DH.


MonyK that sounds like such a lovely night on Friday..........apart from hurting your toe of course!!! Nachos is always a good choice!!!

Yes, when the friends suddenly become girls/boys........it’s quite the difference. More when it’s one on one......we were used to a load of kids around our place, but when it suddenly becomes “that one” it’s a little different......but nice......


Looks nice this morning but horrible weather forecast later..........DS will drive us round to friends Mexican night.......even if it wasn’t raining.....I’m not walking round with poncho, sombrero and fake moustache on anyway......would look even more odd as both ponchos are exactly the same! Twins!! They were supposed to be different, but online company sent both the same.........wasn’t worth sending one back........

Breakfast soon..........then ironing and watching my favourite F1 Grand Prix circuit, Spa in Belgium.

Have a great Sunday...........

All the snake talk...…………………….

 

[schumigirl]

Well, I’ve thrown our old, 16 year old cat in the garage & told her to “do your job” so hopefully she will run the snake out for us!!!

Well, I hope the cat did it`s job!!!!

Our garage is attached too and leads into Utility room......but our biggest worry is spiders. We are surrounded by fields and trees so come autumn when it starts to get cold they all want to escape inside...….lol......not welcome in our house at all!!!!

Snakes...don't get me started on snakes. Most of you know my snake in the bedroom story otherwise known as why I slept on the couch for a week Good luck getting rid of it tgrgirl I never saw mine again although that is disconcerting too.

Sorry about your friend patty

My alarm just went off to remind me that I have 20 minutes to get ready for work so I'll play catchup later.

Have a wonderful day homies

 

[Lynne G]

Ole and hola Schumi. Have fun tonight with your poncho wearing friends. Love the fake mustache. Hope your weather is not too bad when going tonight. Enjoy the F1 race too.

Patty, so sorry to hear of friend.

Charade, must be so proud of B. Still amazed our kids will be are seniors in high school.

MonyK, yeah, asked little one to wait until she was 16 to date. She has, and now, has only brought a boy home once. With her, all seem to be boys and girls hanging out together, more as friends. There may be more pairing off as college kids.

Up today, some Studios time, with a check in to get a wristband for AP fun at night, from 8 to 12am Studio AP only fun. Depending on the weather, in the afternoon, we may change into bathing suits, do the water rides in IOA, then fun at the pool. Then wash up, chill and go back to the Studios around 5 or so.

Enjoy your Sunday all! And hope that snake has left Tgrgrl’s house.

Tink, hope your coffee was plentiful and work today goes quick.

RIP senator mc Cain a true non-partisan American hero who will be greatly missed sigh

Who released the hounds? Present and accounted for; but struggling with no ipad keyboard excuse the typos (come on amazon) and both feet now having issues. Hope podiatrist waives her magic wand tomorrow

Hope all enjoying summers end

Bacon i love but not of the Kevin variety. Yes I know I’m in minority lol. Do like the 7 shades of tho

Safe travels and happy packing Lynne!
BACON! and i did have some this am as the home I am at today had extra from breakfast mmmm.
W
13 year old doggie not doing well today. He was breathing heavy this am, wouldn't get up, just laying by water bowl. Won't eat. DH went and got canned food, and tried giving him some leftover steak-not interested. If we did hospice for dogs it would be time. Not sure how DH and kids are gonna handle this when he goes. He doesn't seem to be in pain, just not interested in moving or eating. Middle had a very bad day Saturday (that reminds me I need to call to check on counselor appointment) so losing her dog is going to be rough. May just go ahead and book the Universal trip and tell her about it so she has something to look forward to, we can run by Central Florida campus so she has excused days for "college visit". Frontier flights are $30 each way today, have an accommodation certificate for 2 bed condo ( for a week although won't need all the days). Need to discuss with DH later.

Monday memes needed!.

. Good luck; poor pooch

Just don’t send those lost pounds to me

I have enough already


Send them to Janet as she is not here to defend herself

Jk

aha so that’s why my butt feels bigger haha

Thank you Tink! Hope you coffee is hot and plentiful. Still gray and not so nice out light rain started too. I need more tea.

Happy happy Lynne. Sorry can’t link a pic but close ur eyes and think of ur fav thing. Hmm in Orlando; scratch that open them!

Up and perky today.

Happy Hump Day!

So all can do the math: Plane landed at 9:55pm, after leaving 40 minutes late, luggage, wet from setting out in the rain waiting for someone to move it, on the luggage carousel at 11:25pm. Solution: long day.

A little yay in there: Hyatt now does online check in. As we were waiting to board, got email with q code. Though was not a long line at check in, we went right to a little kiosk. Held phone up to it. Why hello, here is your key. Two seconds later, we were up to our room.

So now the fun begins! Well shower, car then food. Both of us are starving.

Tea? Eh soda or coffee for me.

Later homies!

Hope u asked for some LUV re the luggage

View attachment 345581 Yay, room ready just after 1pm, and we have a balcony! Chairs in closet fit on the balcony, so opened the wine, and relaxing for a few minutes. Little one took this picture from her chair.

Bell service just gave us our bags. After checking in, devoured pizza for lunch, then quick rides in the Studios. Upgraded little one’s ticket to a seasonal pass, renewed mine, not too bad crowds. Hot with is special a passing shower, so resting up, then Islands, with a train ride and dinner with some Irish food. Little one loves their burgers. May stay for light show, maybe not.

MonyK, glad to hear dog is still here, and kids getting in the back to school mode.

Will catchup with all later. Chao!

Believe we had a room to right of that one balcony score there

So I just went to CVS to pick up my Trulicity prescription (CVS isn't my regular pharmacy, but certain drugs I have to get there cause my prescription benefits are through Caremark), and the pharmacist tells me that there isn't a charge, even though I was totally expecting to pay $75 for the pens. I'm not complaining, but huh????

Our ins forces us there after 3rd refill. They suggested getting dr to write a few for 90 days for same copay!

Well, after a bit of a delay today, our new extra large shed is now up and looking rather grand. We were a bit worried, even though it is sat on its own away from the main house, we would think it too big.......but it’s fine!! Looks good too........for a shed!!!

Now to fill it........not my job...........thankfully!!!

Decorating almost finished........looking fabulous though already........I used to enjoy painting, but seeing the experts do it is so much easier and they do a much better job than I ever could..........

House is dusty though........will be like that till it’s all done I suppose.........

Tomorrow is last day of painters, and made a hair appointment today for cut and blow dry.....can’t wait another almost three weeks.........think I’m going to get layers cut back in again......... Hope I like it..........

Now to think about what’s for dinner later.......hmmmm. No clue..........

Oh and Christmas cards on shelves in card stores here..........

Hmmm a shed could be a perfect time out place lol or sheshed. Becoming popular here

MonyK, good to hear dog still has some spunk.

Always happy to see dobby

Robo, this one is for you. Pumpkins making their appearance in the park.

Morning all. Just some park time before spending the night with Mickey.

Storm came around dinner last night. So what did we do around 7:30? Yep, caught the bus to Volcano Bay, waited out the all clear, and just before 8, all clear and an hour of no line slides and the last 2 sliders to close the park down. Then a 10:30 dinner in City Walk, with little one remarking why so many eating at this hour. Short line for a donut to enjoy as waiting for boat.

Later homie, little one just got some iced coffee. Time to people watch as little one getting ready to ride with Hulk.

Ooh pumpkin trail!

Evening.........

Had the best day today.......

Tom’s birthday........didn’t plan to do much, friend called and asked if we fancied some brunch at theirs.........so he said he’d pick us up.......turned up at theirs and a load of our friends jumped out shouting Happy Birthday when we walked in........it was lovely!!! Around 16 of us altogether..........

Lunch was in a local restaurant after some champagne and light nibbles before hand........I was starving by now as I was expecting brunch when we arrived.......lol........they drove us to local restaurant around 1 and lunch was their treat......nice.

Spent the afternoon back at their home in the garden although it was a little chillier as the day went on.......and enjoyed lots of champagne..........

Tom got lots of lovely gifts and tonight we are having a special champagne I ordered for him......a Pol Roger he loves!!! And although we had lunch out, Kyle wants pizza......he’s not out tonight, so will order one for him and we’ll share one.........a smallish one!!

Pizza and champagne???? Who knew.............

So that’s our day..........we have the best friends!

Hope everyone’s doing ok and having a great Saturday.............

Nice pictures Lynne...........

Ha pizza & bubbly! Love it

Tell the Lord we wish him many more! Cheers

Yea, where is our Keisha!

I was lost but now I’m just clueless

A late to Tom. Anything is good with presents, pizza and champagne.

So cute penguins. Dodging the rain drops and hoping to see the night show. I thought the park was busy.

Bobbie, I did not think our party was that crowded, 30 or minutes for mine train and space mountain, everything else less, with Buzz and People Mover a walk on. After watching last castle show, made it in Buzz’s line as the clock struck 12. Candy given at end as thank you for ending the night for us. On way out little one got a charm with no wait.

Lucky u on no crowds. Wanted to ask re ur DDs shirt in u pic. Is that her soccer club shirt?

 

[macraven]

Back home homie

 

[Charade67]

Good morning everyone. I’m getting ready to head out to church. Each week someone volunteers to bring food to Bible study. It’s our day today. Im thinking bagels from Panera.

Back later.

Yes, sad to hear of his passing. He seemed to be admired and respected from all points of view.

You`ll be glad to get new keyboard...…...and good luck with the feet tomorrow...….not a Kevin fan!!!! I`ll forgive you on that one......just cause it`s you.....

The Lord says thank you M`lady………. yes pizza and very good bubbly do go well together!!!! And no one will ever convince me otherwise...…...

You was missed!!!! Nice to have you back...……..


Horrible cold and miserable day here...…..heating is on...….

Not going out till around 7 I believe...….will try and get some pictures with fake moustache on with sombrero...…...looking forward to it...….and the rum!!! Not very Mexican of course...…..but nice!!!!

I ended up making an apple and plum pie as an extra dessert to take tonight...….we have an abundance of plums grown this year...….loads already dropped off to farmer who turns them into "stuff"...….but they are delicious...….so many more on the trees!!!

Off for a cuppa……...

 

[Lynne G]

Ready for AP night tonight. Wristbands easy with not too bad a line. Now, little one wants a bigger pool fun, so off to the third park.

Ole! A sombrero just cries for a pic or two lol. Have fun at the fiesta

Stuff hmm intriguing. Don’t think I’ve ever had a plum in anything but raw form. Well plum sake but that doesn’t count

We will take pictures......probably before the rum bottle goes down.........lol.......

She makes mainly chutneys and preserves. She has a little cottage industry going with her produce, we only give her a small amount of produce compared to others......she also makes pies and always makes sure we get a few of them, she is an amazing baker ..........and she recently started making a plum liqueur which I can imagine will be incredibly sweet!

Very traditional farmer lady........all rosy cheeked and wears her hair up in a bun all the time........

Good afternoon!

Hop everyone is having a great weekend!

Lynne- loving the pics you are posting!

Like Schumi I am having Mexican tonight- but from a restaurant.

I also made chicken tortilla soup today for lunch this week- its a theme!

Waving hi to Tgrgrl, Tink, Lynne, Mac, Robo, Charade, Schumi Patty, Keisha,and anyone else I missed!

 

[Charade67]

Good afternoon.
Just woke up from a short nap and now I’m a bit groggy.Still need to get to the grocery store. We will most likely end up eating about almost every night this week. B and dh have theater rehearsals Monday-Thursday from 6-9. No time for a meal at home unless we eat supper really early.

Keisha - I think I have replaced the keyboard case for my ipad at least 3 or 4 times. I somehow manage to keep breaking them.

Schumi - Can’t wait to see pics.

Got some good news today. Back when B was in 6th grade we started a Kroger rewards account for band fees. Well, since she doesn’t march, she has never had to spend any of the money in the account. I requested her balance and found out that she has almost $700. This can all be applied to the Orlando trip in the spring.

Aloha! Beautiful afternoon fun in the sun.

That’s a nice windfall!

I’ve had this zagg case sine 2015. Had to lol when I repurchased it on amazon yesterday, more than double original price supply & demand I suppose as manufacturer no longer makes them
