Something About Nothing ... #12

[Lynne G]

Why yes it is, so throw back a drink and stay dry and safe.

Bobbie, per 5:30am weather lady, Saturday will be dry, but mostly cloudy, with high humidity, Sunday, will be also humid, but brighter than Saturday, with the week-end being the only 2 dry days in the 5 day forecast. Yep, that's right, the rain arrives on Monday again. This tropical low just does not want to go. Now, trees are down blocking streets. The roads and all are wet, from overnight rain. And, yes, another round of afternoon rain is predicted, like another downpour or two around dinner time. I'd like to get out of this groundhog day of living the same day over and over, rainy day. Glad the week-end, while still cloudy and humid, will have no rain. Means time to get out without taking an umbrella. Woot! So ready for the week-end. Decided since I wanted a really short week, took Friday off too. Yep, gotta take short weeks between vacations. LOL

So, all the homies in South and North Carolina, particularly those along the coast, sending good thoughts that all are okay, and safe riding out the storm. I agree with Mac, things can be replaced, homies, no.

With that, another Happy Birthday Schumi! And safe flight this morning, great time once you land.

I'm ready to throw back some tea. Yes, AC I know it's humid and wet outside, but no need to ice box air. Sigh, sweater promptly on, and tea is ready. Later homies. Have a terrific Thursday, and keep safe those in the storm's path.

Good morning Sans

Last night while trying to feed the two outside fur babies a representative of a skunk family and a raccoon family showed up on my porch for the food . The cats had some and so did they. I am going to have to try and feed them earlier. We left the door open a little and one of the cats popped her head in a minute. I am hoping we can do this without trapping them. I just have to figure out where to find them a home.

I have to try and figure out tonight's menu.I am

Lynne Thank you for the forecast update. We are going to go I think. As longs as there is no rain it's good. I know what you mean about "Ground Hog Day" we are stuck with all this rain all the time. It gets very depressing. I look forward to some dry and any sun.

Patty - Thank you I am so glad that Brian is just like me. I would be in divorce court by now if not!!! Having kitty pillows of any kind is awesome

I am off to venture into the unknown of cleaning and laundry! I hope everyone has a great day.

Now that I gave Schumi pre birthday wishes, it is time for her official greeting




It is now Schumi day who is on the plane coming to America!

Not much you can do on the flight but politely accept free drinks from the crew

Hope you can walk off the plane
Lol
It’s a long flight and hours of celebration

 

[macraven]

Hope all homies in the path of Florence are safe out of harms way

Help will be on the way once Florence leaves town

Wishing a good day to all our homies and readers

Feel free to drop in and join us anytime

Good Morning!

Its Impact Day here at work- all of our sites all over the world go out into the community and do volunteer projects. So today Im off to the food bank to pack snacks up for kids at school. Should be fun, and gets me out of the office!

Patty- Happy Anniversary!

Bobbie- good luck catching the kitties!

Lynne- I agree about the weather for sure. Im sure the sun is still out there- but it feels like its been weeks since I've seen it!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Oh! I almost forgot the most important thing! Single digit sleeps until vacation! 9 days to go!!

MAC! We posted at the same time! Waving Hi!

Good morning everyone

And to a lady so nice we had to celebrate twice to you Carole. I thought it was on the 13th but I figured mac knew better.

Now I have to go drink coffee and get ready for work.

Have a great day everyone

Well since her bd was the 13 and knew she would be on flight that day. I posted I was doing an “early” bd greeting so all would be ready for the 13th

With the difference of their time to ours. They would be on flight and no idea if any WiFi for them

 

[Tgrgrl]

Good morning everyone!! Happy birthday to CaroleSchumi . It’s my mom’s birthday too, such a great day to be born! Happy belated Anniversary to pattyw also!

I am sitting here watching hurricane coverage on CNN, stress eating for all those in the path ( anyone else eating along with me?) and trying to keep two playful kitties off our new leather couch. I cringe every time I hear their claws scraping on the couch. Sigh....
Dudette, (kids named her, go figure) goes to her new home on Saturday. She is going to a home with an 11 year old girl, only child, who has been wanting a kitten for years. She is sooo excited so I feel really good about Dudette’s new Family. I hope Tipsy won’t be bored out of her mind with just me as her daily entertainment beginning Monday.
Can you still cook tofu that is expired? Hubs requested “healthy” dinner tonight & I don’t feel like a grocery run. I have enough to cobble together a stir fry. Maybe I should cook the tofu separately just in case?

Morning Sans Family










A Happy Birthday to Schumi on her actual birthday.




Safe travels to Schumi and her hubby.






Sending out prayers and hugs to all in the path of Florence stay safe


Mac first night of HHN with Q&A and Houses.......17 sleeps away...

 

[keishashadow]

Morning all bopping in before i head out on last minute errand for one of my spawn. Was hoping to chill for a few quiet hours but a mama bear’s work is never done

If i missed a shout out to patty & her hubs, hope you carved out some time together on your day...sans cats & kids

The storm is morphing into a scary monster, hugs to all in it’s way.

While i was searching for carole’s BD greeting, jogged me that i wasn’t able to post one for mac as i was having ipad issues at the time.

Better late than never, save me one

 

[keishashadow]

Carole, hope you have a wicked birthday trip...why limit it to just one day is my motto

 

[Lynne G]

Tgrgrl, I do the smell test. If it smells like it should, then I'd use it, even if after expiration. I love stir fry. Easy dinner in my book. Left over steak is usually our add in, though sometimes chicken, but little one likes the steak better. Sometimes, I just do it without meat, but more like for a side. Which reminds me, maybe steak sandwiches tonight. Picked up some nice rolls, and chipped steak. I am sure I have cheese in the frig. So that, and maybe steam broccoli, as DH picked that up from the produce place this past weekend, and time to use it up.

Yep, momma bear always, Keisha. Hope all went well today. Will be nice to see ya again next month.

Oops....my bad

I blame lack of sleep

 

[Charade67]

Good afternoon the floor installers are here. I’m trying to keep Caspian out of the way.
My friends in North Carolina have been posting hurricane memes. I’m glad they are trying to keep a sense of humor.


Lynne - I like the Groundhog Day reference. It does seem like the same day on endless repeat. I want some days of sun and low humidity.

Bobbie - Yikes. I don’t think Inwould like skunk and raccoon visitors. I think raccoons are really cute, but they can be very mean too.

Ckmiles - How cool that your company encourages volunteering.

Tgrgrl - I have never cooked tofu. I once had a roommate who cooked it in soup. I think that was the only time I ever ate tofu.

Happy birthday again to Schumi. This time on the correct day.

I’m typing on my phone because the installers needed to disconnect the internet cable while they work. This is a real pain.

 

[Robo56]

Keisha love those Rocky Horror cupcakes.

 

[macraven]

For some stupid reason, I thought it was Friday and sent out payments by mail that wasn’t to be sent out until Friday

Only good thing about that is mail always comes late to the recipient

Mr Mac not home and sent me a text and said he is glad it is Friday finally
So I blame him that it caused my wrong actions

Lol

Been tied up most of today and now finally have sometime to check in here and read

Looks like it has been busy this afternoon

I got up early this morning and finished up errands that I had put off until today

Hi to all the homies!
I need to read all the posts and will be back later to chat

 

[macraven]

Took a quick glance in order to be current and hope I include everyone with my speed reading above


Schumi birthday and she and Tom spent it on a plane ride.
Not a bad thing since it lands in Orlando and a few weeks at UO!

Its also a day of celebration at the tgrgrl homestead.
Her Mom celebrates a birthday also.

hooray for her Mom!

because of her, we have tgrgrl here with us!


And lets also remember it is pattyw and Joe's big day.
31 years of sweet marriage....


Hope she does not have to cook tonight
.......chinese take out is always good.


Robbie
I just adore all the minions that you come up with.
I have a real thing for them.

Yea, I'm excited we are doing the UTH tour and the private tour
If it wasn't for you, i would not have signed up for the Q & A session for AP holders.
When I first read about it I thought, it is probably too late to get a seat for it.
But once you mentioned it to me, got signed up and looking forward to it.

I read in other threads the day after I signed up, all spots were filled.
So a big thank you for lighting a fire under my butt to get me moving on filling out the form.

Dammit Janet
Those pictures are just too kewl.
Rocky Horror Picture Show .......
I still miss that show they did at hhn...
and I knew all the words which embarrassed anyone I was sitting with at those shows....
I believe in audience ...participation....

Lynne
Fridays should be part of everyone's weekend.
Your 4 day work weeks are the way to live.
Sounds like you do your dinners the same way when my boys lived at home.
3 or 4 different meals on some nights.

Tink
Lack of sleep is always the best answer
It works for me.

See you on Wednesday at Epcot


charade

I'm in the same group as you when it comes to tofu.
Never ate it, never will
Just make a meatloaf and call it dinner

Hope the installers do a great job on the floor and your daughter loves it.

Stay safe if you are near the area where Florence has and will hit!

Oh, typing on a phone is not easy.
I'm finally on my imac and don't know how I have managed so far using the iphone to do messages and posts.
So time consuming to correct typos so I usually leave them as they are in posts.


Now if I missed anyone, I will catch up with you later.

Hope all stay safe where you are.
Good thoughts and prayers for all in the area of Florence.


Some days I am busy from the time I get up until I get ready to go to bed.
Today has been busy for me and I feel like I have another day to handle house stuff before the weekend.

I usually stay in the ac house once it heats up outside but not today.
The high today hit 92 and now has dropped to 90.
Nights are cool but that happens around 2 in the morning
I'm sleeping and never know the temps until I look them up the next day.

I'm in northern georgia and no change of weather here until Monday.
Should be getting rain that morning and could go throughout the day.
Weather so unpredicatable at times and could be a rain that is over after a few hours?

When it rains, that means the grass grows more.
This summer have had the yard done every 6 days.
A few weeks did manage to go 7 days without a mowing..

 

[Lynne G]

Eh, with our soggy days, yep DH better mow the grass, looks like it needed it the other day.

Chipped steak or my style of Philly cheesesteak was great. Now getting gas for the car. Up 5 cents from last week.
