Something About Nothing............ #14

[schumigirl]

That is a lot of snow Lynne........glad you’ve nowhere to go.


Almost bedtime here.......will be listening to rain bouncing down all night straight from the sea......it’s so heavy. I do like falling asleep listening to rain.

Trees are blowing around too.

Dentist appointment for both of us in the morning......first time since last year.

Have a good Tuesday evening.

 

[J'aime Paris]

Okay Paris, hate being this winner: 14.9 inches of very icy hard snow.

Just took a very long shower, more tea for me. Just a little more clearing, but getting dark, so cars back in driveway, sidewalks clear. Just widening the driveway needed, but will tackle that tomorrow. Thinking pasta for dinner. Chicken stir fry is what the kids made for lunch. Was tasty. Hmm, may cook some of the chicken fingers we have left and make them parm them. We did pick up fresh mozzarella, so pasta with chicken parm for older one and me. Little one will make her chicken plain, though cheese and red sauce will be on her pasta. No tacos here tonight. Oh well.

Not the contest anyone wants to win, lol! That heavy snow is the worst...
Food sounds good, maybe taco Wednesday?

DH sees the dentist tomorrow too! Here's to 3 positive reports

robbie / great news!

Our Keurig died yesterday, so I ran out immediately to purchase a new one. It would not have been a good morning without coffee!

If that isn’t the most astounding thing when it happens in the morning ugh

couldn`t get to grips with the movie, and I usually enjoy Bill Murray`s offerings.

Not a fav here either

Now I want mac n cheese.

Postponed, had leftover minestrone soup for lunch. Went with a chef salad, been ages, hit the spot

Bless him, he got his lifelong dream of going to Barbados before he passed.

Nice to hear, lovely island, hope they had a glorious time of it

Really? ABC news sold u guys short this am I was floored at the places around NYC pushing 30 inches.

I discovered our toke was ‘over my ankles’ on my back deck today, in crocs with no socks. Thot the snow had a hard enough layer of ice on it -not. Pretty sure the dog stifled a laugh

should I mention the upcoming weather forecast this week? Single digits always get my attention. I’m going to ignore possibility of two additional storms.

 

[Charade67]

A quick good evening. We watched Groundhog Day tonight. It's one of DH's favorite movies.

Oh my, worked up a sweat and still much more shoveling to go.

14.9 inches of very icy hard snow.

Yikes. This is why I refuse to move any farther north. There is potentially more snow for us on Sunday, but right now it looks to be very little if any.

Charade, Sunset Boulevard is a movie you only need to see once, the last 20 minutes are the best part, but you can see the build up nicely.

Hopefully I will get around to watching it someday. I'll look to see where I can rent it. There are so many classic movies I haven't gotten around to watching yet.

Dentist appointment for both of us in the morning......first time since last year.

I have one coming up in a couple of weeks. I need to remind B to schedule one for this summer. She was supposed to go last month, but had to cancel because it was during the quarantine period before the semester started.

Today I decided to order a new suitcase for my upcoming trip. Such a small thing to get excited about.

I`ll go for that!! Been almost a year since we had a check up, hopefully no issues for either of us. Good luck to DH too........it`s like a big outing for us today......lol.......

Single digits is never fun........oh dear.......wet feet in the cold is horrible!

Yes, I think they had a wonderful vacation by the sounds of what they`ve said, the pictures they`ve posted shows Capt Tom glowing and spoke of how rejuvenated the last year of his life made him. Amazing man who did so much for others.

One of the people I called yesterday was so upset by his death. She was only in her 60`s but I think she had been reminded of her father who had passed.

lol.......anything that gets us through the day Charade.....new luggage is always nice.

There are some classic movies around I have never seen. Some I never will, but love a good old classic whether it be a comedy or drama, and black and white movies are mostly clasics.



Rain is clearing although it`s supposed to be gone according to weather. Windy though.

We did joke this is the most exciting event this week.....going to the dentist! They called yesterday to check we were healthy and what would happen when we arrive....just the usual procedures now for most appointments.

Will need to think about food later.......might have some fish I think.

An oldie, but love it........

Photobomb mac????

Have a wonderful Wednesday whatever you`re doing ​

 

[Lynne G]

Ah yes, a snow camel. So fitting on a cool feeling day for so many, and a done with this snowy storm for many. Hump day indeed. I am so ready for the weekend, even if they are saying more snow this weekend.

Yeah Keisha, just North of me were closer to 30 inches. I’m in that just close enough to the City, I get the not quite more cooler than just North of me. Yeah, saw pictures of Manhattan. With a Nor’easter, not unusual to see double digit snow totals in my City and NYC.

We are shoveled out, and cars cleared off. Enough when little one moved the car into street, car went to Starbucks and back in time for spot where it was now seeing blacktop. Sigh, manual labor is not her want. But older one and I did most of the work, and we both relaxed after dinner. I think he went to bed before I did. DH did make it home in the wee hours last night. Said was some slippery roads, but he has a truck, and knows to go slow. Glad he is home, and he had the time to dig his mom’s driveway out.

Wednesday morning, have a Good Morning.

And hope Schumi’s dental visit today goes well.

Time for tea, and hope Mac is still having that fabulous family fun, even with a frost warning for Orlando. At least the cool should keep the lines shorter.

 

[macraven]

Mac is having a fun time !
Today is our Parry Hotter day at UO

Hoping for low line waits and if not, we stand in line and play on our phones

Have a great day homies
I know you will !

 

[macraven]

Schumi
Hope no surprises at the dentist today for you.

My jaw still swollen but with a mask on it’s not noticeable.

I’ll play ketchup on the thread later today.

We are off to see Mr Potter soon!

 

[Lynne G]

Woot! Have lots of Potter fun today Mac.

 

[macraven]

You can bet your bippy we will !

Waiting for our car service....

 

[Charade67]

Good morning! I am up and ready early today. That’s a rare thing for me. I am hoping that I don’t have to deal with any insurance issues today.

Schumi - Hope all goes well at the dentist today.

Lynne - Are you still getting snow or has that stopped for now? Ours is almost gone.

Mac - Have a wonderful time with Harry today. Hope you have low crowds.

 

[Lynne G]

Charade, it has not stopped snowing, and lots of snow piles in our yard from all the shoveling. We do have a sunny day, though snow showers to see, and 30 degrees out. Sigh, Winter is reminding us. And February is always the coldest month to me. And Keisha, eek, single digit temps. We had not see them in a few years, hoping not this year. Though we have been hovering below or at freezing for days. What will make the big mess, is mid 40’s on Friday, and rainy day it is to be.

Enough of crappy weather report. Tea for me. Important info. LoL

Hope all are having a wonderful morning.

Like the camel, very appropriate.......I spoke to my cousins in LI and yes, the snow there is dreadful, hope it clears soon for you..

Schumi

I’ll play ketchup on the thread later today.

Thanks mac....just a small filling.....I might have already told you that though......lol....hope the jaw doesn`t bother you too much today and yes, have a blast today again........

Lynne - Are you still getting snow or has that stopped for now? Ours is almost gone.

Mac - Have a wonderful time with Harry today. Hope you have low crowds.

Thanks Charade.....it was a very different appointment to usual. First time we`ve been since all this started.

Hope you don`t have too many issues today and hope you get some news about your mum soon.



Weather is foul here......it really wasn`t forecast so I`m surprised.

So, a nice quiet afternoon is promised. Made some phone calls for the last couple of hours and I`m done now for the day.

Chicken casserole with dumplings on top tonight......another winter warmer of a dish.......

Read on another board Barney is closed, but it is probably permanently.....I think many of us enjoyed or endured Barney with our children.......I did like Barney.

 

[keishashadow]

I promise, I’m done

Single digits is never fun........oh dear.......wet feet in the cold is horrible

There’s a trend, evidenced by Naomi Watts posting it out, where you don a bathing suit & flop into a snowdrift. For giggles, IDK, at least attach a challenge/charity to it.

We did joke this is the most exciting event this week.....going to the dentist!

Maybe you could find a snow drift, somewhere out there. Better yet, look for a sand dune, next to a beautiful beach.

Will be interesting to see if the lines there are as low as reported for WDW past two weeks. Good luck

I get the social distancing aspect but the park really cannot afford to eliminate offerings for children. Perhaps, they could re-tool it with Nintendo characters...well, if they legally have the proper right to do so there.

 

[macraven]

No crowds at IOA

double woot

 

[J'aime Paris]

Our dear Hatley is 8 years old today! She's such a good girl who is happiest outside, running around with a toy in her mouth!
I made a special breakfast of eggs, plain yogurt, blueberries and bananas for her and our other pup Barney.
She's snoozing quite peacefully right now

nah....memes are funny.......love em!

Yes, Barney was hugely popular at Universal, I was surprised to see it`s almost certain. Again, I`m probably in the minority, Nintendo anything isn`t for me, not a genre I`m fond of, I much prefer the more traditional kids shows.

Our beach is not so beautiful today......can`t even see it from here today.......

No crowds at IOA

double woot

Win win!!!!

Have a blast again today........

You have two of the most gorgeous dogs!

Dogs have the best ideas......snoozing........I always thought Hatley was a boy doggy.....but, she`s beautiful. And I did for a second think....where`d all her snow go......doh!



It is still raining here. No signs of easing. I now refuse to believe the weather people who told us it would be dry here today.

Dinner smells delicious already..........

 

[Lynne G]

Aw Paris, sweet dog. Funny, my golden colored yellow labs were Barney and Lizzie and I miss them so much. My DH keeps asking for another yellow lab. The much whiter colored lab up the street was named Angel. All three lived until they were in their teens.

Keisha, mac and cheese is never not a good choice. LoL Yeah, feel like Groundhog Day, with snow every day since Sunday.

Mac, woot woot for short lines. Have a blast at the Dark Side today. Get that cute gator AP pin too.

No lunchtime walk for me. Too cold out. Did see utility workers outside. Guess something has to be looked on with this snowy cold weather.

Ah, what for dinner? Maybe eggs and ham, and will make chicken noodle soup for little one. Plan, though may have to take family vote. Kids went out to mail letters and I am sure will find some food too. Seems they are gone longer than going to just the post office. Ah, if they come home with a snack, will surely eat it. Early lunch was grilled ham and cheese, peppered ham, not the ham steak thinking of using for dinner.

Afternoon is dragging. But no matter, sun still sets early, around 5:15pm.

 

[keishashadow]

Keisha, mac and cheese is never not a good choice. LoL Yeah, feel like Groundhog Day, with snow every day since Sunday.

I went with my Queso dip variation. Supposedly has less calories - ha. It’s setting up as it cools, family keeps texting...is it soup yet? . Nice day to head out to make deliveries at least. pretty sure it’ll be the 1st time i’ve Reached for my sunglasses this year.

What is peppered ham?

 

[Lynne G]

Ham that has a crust of pepper, Keisha. Deli has it. Just enough pepper around the edges to be a bit hot. Yep, always nice to wear shades even if not warm out.

And ack, Mac, hope you brought warm clothes. Saying Orlando to have another frost warnings tonight.

No frost warnings here. Icy conditions, yes. Saying more snow to come on Friday, well, a slushy mix depending on the temps as it falls. With our mostly sunny day, the snow showers did not stay around much. While we presently are just above freezing, you know a few more degrees, and icy anything that was melted. Our front stoop tends to get icy, so we scraped all the ice off them salted. At least then any new ice will not make us go flying when stepping out the door tonight or tomorrow morning. Good thing we tend to go out later in the morning and home before dark. And a sigh. Not Keisha’s single digit temp, but saying high of 27 in the 5 day forecast. Little one got a ski jacket for Christmas. She gets to use it now.
