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

Quick morning stop in

Had an amazing dinner last night. So tasty but was disappointed that they prime rib roast/steak was sold out by the time we got there - that's my favorite there. Still had a tasty meal. We took the boys, and were joined by his dad, sister and niece. We didn't get to see them much over the weekend - so it was our thankgiving get together with them. The boys were surprised we took them with us. We typically don't take them to this place, as it's a little pricey - especially for teenage boys who would probably rather have pizza, burgers or tacos lol. They enjoyed it!

DH headed out of town this morning for work for the rest of the week. So it's just me and the boys. It's left overs all week. I have lots of turkey and ham left yet. Tonight I'll probably whip up older ds's favorite meal - a ham/corn chowder and biscuits. I will have to freeze the rest of the turkey and ham to use at a later date.

I just booked another Disney vacation. We haven't mentioned this to B yet. I'm thinking of surprising her at Christmas. Just haven't figured out what to do yet.

How fun!!!!

Love the Harry Potter room!! We opened up the area under our stairs and it`s a little sitting area, well, it has two little chairs and a lamp. It was closed off when we moved in, they used it for vacuums and things like that, but we use a cupboard in the laundry room for those things, it looks much prettier this way. But, extra storage is always ideal. You`ll be so glad to see it all finished.

That sounds like a lovely spot!!! I love little corners like that!!!! I have a small home with no corners to decorate like that. Maybe some day

But a repeat of a day is our weather this Wednesday. Cloudy day, with mid 70’s the high. Did put shorts on, but house feels a bit cool, so throw over my legs.

I put my capris away finally, and pulled out my long pants this morning. I put on my first pair of socks and wore shoes - instead of cute little kicks. My feet were screaming as I slid the socks on this morning. It's cool here now, with us only getting into the high single digits the past couple of weeks. It's only going to get to 48F here for the next couple of weeks. Hopefully that S-word stays away for a bit yet. It's always great when kids don't have to bundle up in snowsuits to go trick or treating.

I have a 90 minute massage booked for this afternoon and I am excited!!!!!!
I'll get there early, to sit in the salt room for a bit. And after, I'll hang out in the eucalyptus shower until I just about doze off.
I hope to leave the spa feeling like jelly!!

That sounds AMAZING!!!! Enjoy your time there!!!!

derm appt stretched on yesterday, wound up with 3 dings on my face. Taking great care to keep them doused in ointment & bandages to avoid dreaded scar. Have been lucky there, the expected lack of pigment issues typically fade within a year or two if I keep the sunblock applied

set up for procedure early November that requires stitches etc. mandatory at practice to use their outpatient surgical center. Glad we have great health insurance lol

spent remainder of day at body garage. Had a gentle reminder from that insurer to handle the repairs from when the idiot backed into me at WM parking lot end of July

I had gone back & forth on doing repairs. Car had subsequently passed state inspection. Thot it just needed scrapes rubbed out

nope, there’s a cracked bumper & grill. The front panelIs questionable ? they have suspicions something going on they won’t be able to verify until they rip it apart. Again, glad we have full insurance

WOW That was quite a bit of situations to deal with in one day! I hope you heal fast...and get things sorted with your car.

Well, I should shuffle some papers - seeing as they actually pay me to do that

Have a great day everyone...stay safe!!!!

 

[Pumpkin1172]

Can't focus today...I'm doing everything but shuffling papers lol

Good thing there are not big piles of papers to shuffle and file

 

[Charade67]

I’m going to leave work an hour early. I have nothing to do. I’ve been researching Disney stuff in my phone.

 

[Lynne G]

Haven’t had this in awhile, but made my own meatballs and cooked them with my made red sauce, with spaghetti noodles and fresh grated parmigiana cheese. Full I am. Was perfect as house felt a bit cool, but kitchen heated up nicely.

So glad I missed the rain when running out to buy the meat for the meatballs.

Hope all are having a good night. And eek, Keisha, hope all is okay with all those medical appointments. And car accident too. Never a dull moment in your home.

 

[keishashadow]

Charade - lol, never want to be a red shirt on ST

My feet were screaming as I slid the socks on this morning.

seriously, they feel like they are suffocating after free-ranging all summer.

that ‘they ran out of prime rib‘ is horrible. Careful with developing the boys’ palates to the fancy stuff Lol. Sounds like a lovely dinner

WOW That was quite a bit of situations to deal with in one day! I hope you heal fast...and get things sorted with your car.

Always seems like things go in cycles here, including medical appointments, almost there crossing off the backed up to-do list. Good thing U sent me an email it was last call to renew my AP or I’d have forgotten

Never a dull moment in your home.

lol keeps my blood flowing. Now I’m hungry for spaghetti & meatballs. Pickings are decidedly slim here. mr working a double, thus far today I’ve eaten a package of ramen noodles i found in back of cupboard & the rest of a cucumber from salad the other day with cheese/ham/couple of crackers.

wish i had cooked at this point. believe i hear the Halloween candy calling to me From the dining room. time to do some quality control & sample a Reese cup, maybe a peppermint patty too. Snack sized, they don’t count, do they?

 

[Lynne G]

Nope already had a peppermint patty, with my evening tea, Keisha. DH is teaching online, and all have to be quiet. Hence watching with my ear buds in.

 

[Charade67]

Quiet night tonight with just me and Caspian. Dh and B should be in Williamsburg by now.

I left work early today and took a nap when I got home. I woke up with an upset stomach. For supper I decided I would just have some crackers and ginger ale. I went to Kroger and there was not a single box of saltine crackers on the shelf. So weird. I can't imagine why there would be a run on crackers. I had to go to Walmart instead.

Wow, what a day you had, Hope the medical appointments go well.

I put on my first pair of socks and wore shoes - instead of cute little kicks. My feet were screaming as I slid the socks on this morning.

I must be odd. I still wear socks in the summer. I need to have something between my feet and the shoes. I mostly wear no shows.

Haven’t had this in awhile, but made my own meatballs and cooked them with my made red sauce, with spaghetti noodles and fresh grated parmigiana cheese. Full I am. Was perfect as house felt a bit cool, but kitchen heated up nicely.

Sounds really good. I have some meatballs in the freezer that I should do something with.

Charade - lol, never want to be a red shirt on ST

B's dance studio has a spirit week each year where there are themed dress up days. Several years ago one of the themes was outer space. I dressed her up like a Star Trek red shirt. She had no clue.

Nothing worth watching on TV tonight. I think I will see if I can find a movie to stream.

 

[Lynne G]

Hope B and her dad have fun today. And hope Charade has enough work to make the day go fast.

Schumi’s probably back from a nice long walk, and ready for lunch.

Julie probably had Louie out patrolling the yard.

Keisha probably is sleeping, at least I hope so.

Metro’s probably up with me, as early bird homies we are.

And so, even if no alcoholic drink in my hand at this moment, a cup of tea is. Hence, join me in having a terrific Thirsty Thursday.

 

[Lynne G]

Ooh, and I bet Paris is feeling fine after her massage yesterday. Hope all is good, and having a terrific Thursday.

 

[Charade67]

Bored again at work today.

Ooh. Just got a call from my local Hallmark retailer. My wish list items will be available on Saturday. I ordered a Doctor Who ornament and one other. I have already forgotten what it was.

 

[Lynne G]

Aw, Charade, sorry not a busy day for you. Guess more time to plan your family Soring trip. And interestingly, little one does not get a Spring Break this coming Spring session, though they end early and will still have 3 of those silly random days off. She is getting Thanksgiving week off though, with finals starting when they return from that Fall break.

 

[J'aime Paris]

A massage sounds heavenly, Paris. I think I would use cuppa more for tea than coffee, but I do use a cup for both. Eh, I’d rather fall back in time than ahead. But starting to be that time of year, left in the dark, home in the dark.

Still gray looking out. DH once again asked if AC on. Um, no, but cool air coming through the vents. With 60’s the high predicted next week, I guess this weekend, heater will be turned on. That time of year. October is such a transition month. More cooler days than warmer, but can be everything from warmer then cooler, with days of rain, and one year, even snow that disrupted Halloween.

And so, a Wednesday it is.

I have the ability to "sleep in" and really enjoy the darker mornings. But I understand it stinks when a person barely sees daylight due to work schedules/commute.

Trekkies among us can now rejoice

90 y.o. William Shatner made it back from this morning’s space launch with only one minor side effect

View attachment 612731

William Shatner is such an icon! Love that he went full circle and flew to space!!

Hello everyone. I am at work and bored out of my mind. It is super slow today.
Dh and B are leaving this evening, so I want to go home and get the house cleaned so I don’t have to worry about it this weekend.


We will probably use it as a coat closet. Dh has more coats and jackets than anyone else I know.

November 7 for us. I wish we would stop doing this.

I’m just happy that she still wants to go to Disney at her age.

Same here.

Sounds like a great way to spend the afternoon.

I am watching the clock and waiting for lunch.

I'd take DD to WDW for Spring Break in a heartbeat!! This year she's talking about Spring Break with friends. I get it...she's almost 23 and wants to do her thing with peers......someday I'll get her back!

Never did cross off all the to-do’s yesterday. Going to concentrate on household & financial stuff today & chill in leggings & an old HHN tshirt

I 2nd that emotion!

She was a true Studda Bubba, complete with perpetual pristine white apron & a babushka. I make a mean soup or two, her’s were heavenly

I lament nobody bothered to write down her recipes

Need to Google that roast. Tried the Arkansas one with pepperchini. Not our cuppa despite enjoying the jarred peppers otherwise

Lol it’s the hime improvement version of Columba’s…just one more thing

Nice! When are u planning on visiting.
There always seems to be a post or two running on WDW side of boards here where people share their surprise announcements

Aaaah enjoy

Still mid 70s. Will be sad to see it s finally drop down to mid 60’s. Won’t be turning that heat in anytime soon. Would like to avoid firing up the boiler for another month if possible

I'm way to close with my dermatologist as well, ugh! Thinking I'll end up with a few dings too in the years to come. Too many days of lifeguarding and chasing that perfect tan with pale skin and blonde hair.

March 13-18. It will be a quick trip and we are staying at the most budget resort. We are also thinking of going back to Disneyland when B graduates.

Quick morning stop in

Had an amazing dinner last night. So tasty but was disappointed that they prime rib roast/steak was sold out by the time we got there - that's my favorite there. Still had a tasty meal.

No judging here! Candy anytime as an adult is A-OK! Don't have to ask permission from anyone, lol!

I'm having my second cuppa coffee! Happy Thirsty Thursday!

Ooh, and I bet Paris is feeling fine after her massage yesterday. Hope all is good, and having a terrific Thursday.

The massage yesterday was incredible, and I slept like a baby last night!!!

This gal did a few different things, that were really good. She asked if I'd like an aromatherapy scent under the face rest. I chose peppermint, and it was so nice!
She also put heating pads on different areas to warm them up before working the muscles. And after massaging an area, she put a hot wet towel for a few minutes.
It really elevated the whole session!!

Had some strawberry tea in the lounge after my massage before hitting the sauna and eucalyptus shower. Treated myself to a few new products and one for DD.
Left the spa feeling a bit like this, lol!!






I'm going to the mall today. I'd like to get a new outfit. My BFF is having a 50th birthday party next weekend. She's 12 looooong days older than me.....and I reminder her of it, lol!

Have a feeling the shopping is gonna go something like this!


Have a super day!!!

 

[Lynne G]

Good luck finding that outfit Paris. Yeah, little one still likes to come with me, with mom paying, but that may soon be a friends trip as she finishes her undergrad classes.

Ack, with such an early start, so is my breakfast. Already ready for lunch. Nothing leftover from last night. And I assume older one will be wanting lunch soon too, as he works from after lunch until closing at 10 tonight.

 

[Pumpkin1172]

Early morning stop in before the paper shuffling starts

Came into work a little later this morning. Good thing no one cares or holds me to the time clock. The one good thing about my position. I can set my own hours. Had to take dh's truck to get a truck box liner sprayed on today. It was a gift from his siblings for his birthday. We were just talking about doing that - and then he got it as a gift for his bd. I sure do like driving his truck. I like the seat warmers on these cool mornings

Not much in the plans for today or tonight. Probably head out for a walk tonight. It is supposed to be a pretty decent day today. Hopefully the wind stays down. Guess I should look into pricing for a membership at our city rec center. I am wimpy and want to walk inside. We don't have any big malls here - we have one small mall and it's way too crowded for me most times. I had trouble going into there pre-covid lol.

@J'aime Paris - good luck with the shopping. I would rather pick my eyes out with an ice pick than shop for jeans. I'm glad your spa day was sooo wonderful.

@Charade 67 - Enjoy the quite time with Caspian. It sounds like B and your dh will have a wonderful get away.

@Lynne G - our dd at 27 will always come along if we are paying Kids

Well...I should get started on shuffling some papers and creating spreadsheets. I'm still not totally focused on work. I keep getting side tracked with things to look up for our Florida trip!!!

Have a great day everyone

 

[Charade67]

Home from work and trying to do a little cleaning. Our contractor just stopped by to measure our fireplace. I am so excited about getting a mantle. It’s going to be very simple, but I am just happy to have somewhere to place pictures or hang Christmas stockings. (Note to self: google ideas for decorating a mantle for Christmas.)

Aw, Charade, sorry not a busy day for you. Guess more time to plan your family Soring trip. And interestingly, little one does not get a Spring Break this coming Spring session, though they end early and will still have 3 of those silly random days off. She is getting Thanksgiving week off though, with finals starting when they return from that Fall break.

Bummer that she doesn’t get a spring break. B gets today and tomorrow for fall break,Thanksgiving week, and spring break.

I'd take DD to WDW for Spring Break in a heartbeat!! This year she's talking about Spring Break with friends. I get it...she's almost 23 and wants to do her thing with peers......someday I'll get her back!

B will be 21 when we go to Disney. I am happy that she still wants to do things with us. I know it won’t be long before she wants to take trips with her friends.

Well...I should get started on shuffling some papers and creating spreadsheets. I'm still not totally focused on work. I keep getting side tracked with things to look up for our Florida trip!!!

I know what you mean. Im already looking at stuff for Disney. I made our park reservations already.

I guess I should get back to cleaning. I have laundry to do too.

Saw this on the UOAP Facebook page. The math nerd in me loves it.

No luck with the outfit yet. I rarely find something I like on the first trip.

I'm also a wimp outside when it gets too cold. The little dog agrees with me, the big dog does not, lol! She gets plenty of snowy zoomies all around the yard when I won't walk.






I didn't spend much time at the mall. It was sprinkling when I left the house, and beautifully sunny when I got to the mall. I looked at a couple stores, and thought "what the heck am I doing inside right now"??

I went back home and took the dogs for a walk.
We took a short break for Barney, and Hatley occupied herself with rolling around in the leaves. She can entertain herself easily whenever outdoors!

 

[Lynne G]

Well, what do you do with red sauce leftover? Cook chicken up and bacon, so chicken bacon parmigiana. And no pasta left, so over mashed taters. Happy little one, as she’s not only a pasta and noodle fan, but also mashed taters too. And so, with both men working late, leftovers of all but not much taters or bacon left. No matter, we have bread, so I can see them both making sandwiches out of the chicken.

Does not help where your mom is, Keisha, but for the first time both state and City have 70 percent vaccinated adults.

And starting to get that Friday feeling:



Yay! Yay! Yay! It is good news Friday is tomorrow.

And will be a cool overnight, as finally a clear enough sky to see the moon so bright in the night’s sky. But when I wake up, those pants are not going to be worn. Yay for high temp to be a close to record breaking 82 degrees as the high tomorrow. Double woot: Woot! Woot!

 

[soniam]

Finally getting time to post. We got back late Monday night, and I have been busy with chores and errands. I arrived Thursday morning without any issues. I got up at 2am, left for airport about 4am, flight left at 6am, sort of slept on the plane, and landed about 9:30am. Got to Hard Rock, checked in (room wasn't ready), rearranged stuff to take into the parks, had bell services watch my bags while I changed into shorts, left my bags with them, and got a bunch of tickets and new APs. Around noon, I met up with @Sue M in the lobby. We talked for a bit. It was great to meet you Headed into the park for lunch at Today Cafe; I hadn't really eaten breakfast. Got the big apple cheese. I walked around and took some pictures, then headed to San Francisco Bakery for the pumpkin puff. It was really good. I didn't do any rides, just walked around, took pictures, went to the Tribute Store. I bought some additional fog candles, since mine burned way to fast at home before the trip. I was going to go to IOA via Hogwart's Express between 1 and 2pm, but the regular wait was 90 minutes. I figured it would still be long with EP. I killed some more time at Studios. I killed more time in City Walk at the new legacy and park stores.

I wanted to do Stay & Scream and get into the park before it closed at 5pm; otherwise, I was going to have to wait until closer to 7pm to enter due to long lines at the gates. It was around 3:30, and I still hadn't gotten the text for my room. I decided to hang out in the AC in the Hard Rock lobby until the official 4pm check in time. Saw @Sue M again, and we chatted. It was a little after 4pm and still no text. I was getting anxious and thought I was going to have to switch out my stuff, keep bags at bell services, head to the park for HHN, and check in after HHN. Sue talked me off the ledge and convinced me to try the Rewards desk. It was just about 4:30pm. They got me a room within about 5 minutes. I ran to bell services, got my bags, and booked it to my room. Dropped my bags in the room and switched out gear for the night. I made it into Stay & Scream 10 minutes before the park closed.

Did Hill House via Stay & Scream. It wasn't a good run. Too many scares not happening (maybe actors weren't in place yet) and too dark for my eyes. I have never had that problem before, but Hill House is very dark and very detailed. I had HHN Express Pass or an RIP tour for the whole trip. I did more houses via EP and tried to take pictures. I had forgotten my poncho in my haste, so I had to buy one at the Kwik-E-Mart. Luckily, I bought one, because it started raining pretty good at one point. I actually had to pull out the rain cover for my photo backpack. I got the pumpkin guts and bog slime drink at the Wicked Growth food booth. The food was excellent and felt kind of healthy and light. The tombstone cake I got from the Tribute Store was horribly sweet. It had a bunch of chocolate marshmallow cream in it. The cake part was good, and it needed more of that and less of the really sweet stuff. I only ate about half of it. One of my local friends met me after 9pm. She didn't have EP, so we did a few houses with shorter waits. She headed out for work the next day. There were only 4 houses that I hadn't done, so I went ahead and did them with EP. I ended up leaving the park about 1:30am. I didn't get to bed until 2:30am, because I wanted to get my stuff organized and ready for the next day. So, that was a little more than 24 hours up. I slept in until about 10:30am.

Hope everyone is doing well. I will update more later.

Seems like a million years since I was at hhn….
And I have been gone a week now from my trip.

As I read how those at the park now talk about the parks, makes me realize I missed out on a lot of the rides on the past trip

Guess since I was there back in February, did rides and shows the entire time back then and took a pass on many of them this month

Playing catch up tonight on how all the homies are doing.

Still have the ac on at home but humidity is not bad here
Temps are now holding at mid 80’s but due a cold front to change that on this coming weekend

I don’t plan to go back to UO until next fall but hope to meet more homies next year when I go

It was great fun to meet many of you this past trip

Have your people call my people when you are going next fall
Would love to meet up with you.
