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

[Lynne G]

Hmm, heard some thunder, phone said lightning in the area, but we got about 10 minutes of light rain. If my weather radar didn’t show a light green over us for those 10 or so minutes, showed dark green, and yellow all around us, would have thought what? We really didn’t get much rain at all. In fact, just heard the AC go on again. 76 degrees at almost 10 pm. Will be a warm night. Thunderstorms watch expires in 4 minutes, so I guess little one still hasn’t got her wish for a good thunderstorm to downpour rain on us.

Ended up with pasta. Easy dinner for a Monday night, where all were just not feeling much to eat. Finishing up my tea, as getting ready for bed shortly.

Yay for Schumi to order a new car. Yep, even here, cars are on order for many months.

When I leave for work tomorrow, should be still warm. Saying low tonight is 72 degrees. May have to use the AC in the car on the way in. Certainly will on the way home though, as should be fully sunny and oh so humid 92 degrees at 4pm tomorrow.

A nighty night to all. Hope all have that very good sleep. Light on, for those that need that little bit of light.

 

[Lynne G]

Quick enough commute. Darn entry was like click, I’m open. Not. Guy behind me said door was being annoying yesterday. Another scan, click, no issue. Stupid door. But then very quiet where I am.

Weather lady said it’s going to be a hot and humid day, with 94 degrees the high. And sunny conditions will be all day. Get those sunglasses out, and carry a bottle of water.

Hope Mac and Mr. Mac are felling good enough to enjoy some Taco Bell food today.

Yay, it’s a Taco Tuesday here. Hehe, kitty is right, Tacos and a good morning to all.

And yeah, where’s that sun?


Sunrise still early, like an hour ago. Good thing I travel East before that sun up.

Thus, didn’t need that night light. Was tired, as was falling asleep, heard little one say she was getting more medicine. Told her, if still painful ear, call the doctor. Will check on her later today. Then I was out like a light. Next thing I heard was the alarm. So I guess I had a good nights sleep.

Let’s hope this commute home will be not nearly as long taking as last Tuesday.

Finally, hope all are doing well. Sending good thoughts to all that need some. And yeah, wonder how Dix is doing? I hope she found a good job after graduating. Nice to hear from all the homies.

 

[schumigirl]

Greetings everyone. Nothing much going on here except my boss is driving me nuts again. I swear she never reads the emails I send her. Last week she got an email stating that she needed to verify some information for one of the insurance companies. She sent it to me and I verified the information. She got another email stating that the update had been completed by (my name). She forwards that to me asking for the user ID and password to the site so she can do the update. She also got an email from our phone company stating that we will have to start dialing the area code with all numbers including local ones. She sent that to me asking what we need to do. I responded that we just need to start using area codes. She sent it back to me asking the same question. I have decided that I am going to start replying to her emails in very large, bright red font. Maybe then she might actually read them. I'm not holding my breath though.


I don't think that will happen, but at least I have Photoshop to balance the boredom.


Anatomy & Physiology. I never thought I would take an anatomy class, but it is a prerequisite for my medical office management classes.


Don't even get me started on English classes. I am a math person. Don't like English at all. The worst was the required speech class.
Years ago I took an online biology class. The professor who recorded the lectures had such a soothing voice. He could have had a second career recording audio books of bedtime stories. It was so hard to stay awake while listening to his lectures.




Congratulations! Sorry you have to wait so long to get it. I hope we don't have to wait that long when we buy a new car next year. Right now the plan is to give B dh's car when she graduates and he will buy a new one.

Time to think about dinner. DH just woke up from a 3 hour nap.

You might be ok. While there are waits everywhere for cars, Porsche limits the amount of cars they have for sale every year, so we knew it was always going to be a longer than usual time. I`m sure your daughter will be thrilled with the car when she gets it.

I`m the opposite.....hated maths, but loved anything English related. I did get worried about the maths content during the Engineering degree I did, but it was fine in the end, but didn`t enjoy that part of the degree.





This is a nice view to have......

We have 104F here......crazy hot! And that`s in the shade.

Walked around 6am this morning for just over an hour and did just over 4 miles, but it was too hot and felt airless too, so we got home, showered and went to a friends house for the morning.....she has an airconditioned part of her home, so we sat in there and had morning tea with her and her husband, then stayed for lunch which was nice.

Back home and we did plan to sit out, but, it`s far too hot out there, even in the shade with a fan in the gazebo......so inside where it is cooler. This weather is so crazy for us.......but it`s not too bad for us as we`re used to the heat.....just not here!! We`ll go back out tonight when it has cooled down a little. We have the bifold doors open in the kitchen and there is a rather nice breeze blowing in which is pleasant.

We plan to grill some chicken later for dinner, have some salad to make up and bought some potato salad to save making it.

But, we`ll certainly make the most of it while we can........unlike Florida and the South, this won`t last too long over here.

Have the best Tequila Tuesday ​

 

[keishashadow]

Morning all, back up into 80 degree weather we go here. Was a nice break.

Soon off to get blonde at new place. Seems I’m the curse to stylists. In the past 5 years or so all have retired, quit to change line of work or need surgery. mostly younger girls, think their work ethic is such the rigors of the job burn them out. So many of the older gals quit for fear of covid Here.

Then, directly to eye dr appt, then it’s looking to be McD as I’m sure I’ll be beat. Fell asleep on couch at 8:30 pm last night. napped for 2 hours and the mr cajoled me upstairs. Can’t believe the amount of sleep I’m requiring to function. Slow & steady i guess.

kiddo coming after her basketball camp tonight, then will be on road tomorrow for 5 hours re her gymnastics. Usually, shop while she‘s there. I may find a comfy bench in mall, set my alarm on watch and close eyes lol.

So, has anyone here gotten those transitions/photochromic glasses lenses? on the fence, usually don’t get the long distance vision filled in my RX So no need in past. This time, pretty sure I need them for driving In order to read the road signs lol.

have a great day all

You`ve been through a heck of a virus Janet.....it`ll take some time for you to get back to normal after that. Sleep when you need to...you will be fully back to normal for your trip coming up!! I can`t wait to hear about that accommodation, sounds gorgeous.

Good luck with the stylist......a good one is worth their weight in gold. And enjoy that nap after such a long drive!!! Heck we could be in another country driving that length.....lol......






Still too hot to sit out, 108F in our garden, outside general temp is 103F. As Brits we are just not used to these temps. But, it is nice. Our beaches are mobbed, not my idea of fun at all being down there on a day like today.

Made up some rum punches this afternoon......dark rum, pineapple juice, ginger beer and fresh lime juice....lots of ice and frozen cherries. Nice.

Well, no plans to go anywhere anytime soon, so drinking a cocktail is a nice way to pass a lazy day.

Will grill out later, but no real appetite right now although Tom is looking for a snack right now........hmm.

 

[Lynne G]

Keisha, older one has had those transitions lenses for awhile. But last year, he said he’s rather have prescription sunglasses. So that stinker got me to buy not only his regular glasses, but 2 pair of prescription sunglasses. As wanted a sporty pair and a regular one. This year too, as his prescription changed. Only thing he did not like, is that they were not totally clear when inside when he had those transition lenses. Maybe that has been changed, but something you may want to try first. Yay for being that legally blonde, and hope eye doctor visit goes well. Hehe, I’ve been with the same hair lady since before I was married. She’s just a few years older then me. Yeah, I’ve heard even when over virus, get worn out fast. Take it easy, and have fun with GD.

Ugh, what an early start does. I’m ready for lunch and it’s about an hour form now. Have that sweater on, as office feels too cool. Will not complain though, heat warnings issued. And ack, in my news feed, saw English airport having its runway melting. That is hot. At least where I live, it’s so hot in Summer, our blacktops and airports have never had such news. But every Summer, you do see in news, someone try to fry an egg on their paved driveway.

 

[schumigirl]

At least where I live, it’s so hot in Summer, our blacktops and airports have never had such news

That is something to be proud of for sure!!






I was reading Arizona had issues with tarmac melting too......of course, it`s really, really hot there!

Enjoying some rum punch........very civilised way to spend an afternoon......beats doing anything else for sure.

Almost 6 weeks till we`re back in the wonderful USA!!! Love that countdown......

It's a happy taco Tuesday!

Beautiful, warm but breezy day today. My nail girl texted me asking to reschedule as she is having car trouble today. I hope it's not too long of a wait. I did loose one nail as it lifted off. I have resisted filing them down to make them easier for me at work with all the keyboarding I do, but I can resist for another day or two, but that's about it. I don't like my nails too long.

We were glad of a good breeze to go through the house yesterday to cool it off. I whipped up some muffins last night and prepared some cinnamon buns that I baked this morning. I took them to dh's work this morning. I walked past the sales guys, and I must have smelled like the buns as they asked if I brought any for them. They had some words when I told them I took some to dh's work It's good to know others like them too.

An ATV is that what we have but are called Quad bikes over here? I`m sure they are now I think on it. My guys love theirs and yes, if something went wrong with them, they`d pony up the pounds to fix them in a heartbeat!

We do call them quads here too! Most US peeps would know an atv vs quads. But the guys definitely don't like it when their toys are down. Dh is ocd about maintenance on anything with a motor. Some days, I have to bite my lip, and other's I'm thankful for his ocd tendencies.

Another Porsche SUV, same as the one we have, but the updated model, bigger engine and an array of extras he fancied too! I like it.......downside is.......we don`t get it till next year......maybe March/April. Seems a long way off right now, but it`s not too bad a wait and timing suits us just fine. But, we love this car and the newer one looks even better!!

NICE!!! Sounds like it will be a sweet ride! The wait will be worth it.

pumpkin - you bait your own hook? With squirmy wormies? Way, to, go, girl!

No worms here. We use minnows and just a simple jig head and wiggly tail. I know that some people will use worms, but minnows are more popular around here. I know for trout and some other fish people use grubs and leeches as well. Minnows seem to work the best for us. I even take most of my own fish off the line too except for slough sharks...aka...pike/jackfish.

Hmm, heard some thunder, phone said lightning in the area, but we got about 10 minutes of light rain. If my weather radar didn’t show a light green over us for those 10 or so minutes, showed dark green, and yellow all around us, would have thought what? We really didn’t get much rain at all. In fact, just heard the AC go on again. 76 degrees at almost 10 pm. Will be a warm night. Thunderstorms watch expires in 4 minutes, so I guess little one still hasn’t got her wish for a good thunderstorm to downpour rain on us.

You sure get lots of storms. I guess I need to move south,, then I would maybe tolerate storms better.

Can’t believe the amount of sleep I’m requiring to function. Slow & steady i guess.

That is not unusual! Slow and steady!

Well, I should shuffle some papers.

Have a great day everyone!

 

[Charade67]

They finally released AP rates for my September visit. Unfortunately the only rooms available at Sapphire Falls are hospitality suits. I guess I will just stick with my savvy traveler rate for now.

I don`t like long nails either, long as they`re tidy I`m happy.

Yes, you`ll have been very popular with cinnamon buns......

We can`t get too excited as it`s so far away right now, but yes, it is a dream of a car, we love this one a lot, it`s wonderful to drive and a lot of fun, so the newer one.....yep, looking forward to it.

Hope you`re doing better and having a great day...

They finally released AP rates for my September visit. Unfortunately the only rooms available at Sapphire Falls are hospitality suits. I guess I will just stick with my savvy traveler rate for now.

I`m glad you have a room booked as it is filling up and will only get busier from now.






Cooling down a little......going to be mid 70`s during the night so it will be easier than today.

Ended up with pizza being delivered tonight instead of barbecuing, it was just too hot...and it was lovely, we cleared the lot surprisingly.

Not long till bedtime for us, up early as usual in the morning then DH has a dental appointment, then a few things to pick up. Then we`ll see what we get up to......

Almost Wednesday again.........

 

[Lynne G]

Oh my, today was hot, but tomorrow is to be even hotter. Clear sky, but even at 9 pm tonight, it still 85 degrees out. Just heard our AC go on again.

And talking about blacktop, heard the last wooden bricks street in our city, was paved over. Sad. At least some of the clay brick and stone streets are not paved over. I guess, yet. Oldest parts of our city, and at least most of the buildings are still standing.

And so, with a very clear sky, still dark enough, a light on for all that need a bit more light in the overnight.

Yep, camel says going to be a hot feeling Wednesday. He’s ready. Evening news says feel like temps will be 105 or higher, with actual temp high to be 96. Muggy anyone? Oh so humid, you’d rather have it rain. But nope. To be a full wall to wall sunny all day mid week day. And lots more hot weather before another chance of rain. Pair of 98 degrees to end our week. Hello Summer.

Abd yay, another day closer to Sue and our trip. Sue, we will be coming in a day early, due to no nonstop flights on Sunday. So, booked CB for our first night, and with a before the sunrise flight, we should have a full day to try to meet up with ya, unless you are leaving early morning.

 

[Charade67]

Good evening. Nothing exciting going on here. I have an appointment to see a podiatrist on Thursday. My MRI showed that I have bursitis in my little toe. I swear I have the strangest ailments.

We have 104F here......crazy hot! And that`s in the shade

Wow, that's insane. High 80's here today, but we are supposed to see 102 on Sunday.

Fell asleep on couch at 8:30 pm last night. napped for 2 hours and the mr cajoled me upstairs. Can’t believe the amount of sleep I’m requiring to function. Slow & steady i guess.

You're still in recovery mode. I think your body still needs the rest.

So, has anyone here gotten those transitions/photochromic glasses lenses?

I had them once, but didn't care for them. I also had prescription sunglasses once, but got tired of switching glasses. I now have a pair of fit over sunglasses, but rarely use them.

And ack, in my news feed, saw English airport having its runway melting.

That's crazy. I have never heard of that happening before.

Almost 6 weeks till we`re back in the wonderful USA!!! Love that countdown......

Two months from tomorrow for me.

I don't like my nails too long.

I can't keep long nails. Mine are so weak and break so easily. I just keep them super short.

Guess I should try to get some sleep. I anticipate a slow work day tomorrow.

 

[Sue M]

Great photoshop Charade! I just had my podiatrist appt today.

Pumpkin your so right about the electric grid. So far we haven’t heard anything about how they’re planning for electric cars. I went for a walk with the friend who’s husband ordered it! The continuing saga! While getting my 10,000 steps in! My hip is killing me very glad I have massage apt Friday. We walked the inlet trail. Saw 2 bear scat. Looked pretty fresh!

Schumi here I’ve heard both names, ATV or Quad used. Congrats on new car, now the important part what colour! Lol.
Sounds like you’re having the heat dome we had last summer. Crazy weather. So many fires in France, Spain, & Portugal. My friend down the lane has 3 older siblings in London. She says they’re melting. Using ice blocks in front of fans. It was tragic, so many elderly here died with the extreme heat. Most lived alone and didn’t have family. So sad.

Keisha wonderful pics! Looks like it was a great trip. Glad you’re on the mend. I’m a bit worried about getting the virus too. Scary you got it even with masking. Did you wear mask in wdw too, in stores, and ride queues?

Mac how’s it going?

Lynne I’m glad to report the bear didn’t get in my garbage this Monday!

 

[Sue M]

@Lynne G someone just posted on the Canadian board AP rates are out for late Aug! Have you checked your rates?

Bursitis can be very painful, hope you get some relief.

Yes, insane weather for us....we never have anything like that usually, and glad it`s gone to be honest. Yes, Brize Norton and a couple of other airports had melting tarmac....our country prepares for much cooler weather as it`s what we`re used to. We`re lucky here we don`t usually get extremes of heat like the South or extreme cold as you see in Canada. This is very unusual.

And yes, nice countdown!!

Lynne I’m glad to report the bear didn’t get in my garbage this Monday!

It`s a dark grey colour Sue this time, one we have now is black.

The fires have been horrendous. Even outisde of the main headline areas, so many grass fires are affecting everywhere. The hills a couple of miles away had a fire burning last few days, we could vaguely smell it Monday night. Hopefully now they`ll get them under control. We`ve barely had a drop of rain for weeks, so grass is dryer than timber and they don`t want us using sprinklers or garden hoses right now. It`s amazing how many folks ignore that advice though.

We were in France for a trip just before the horrible heatwave in 2003 that killed thousands of people that year. It felt incredibly hot even when we were there earlier in the year, we were back in Paris in September 2003 and it was also much hotter than would be normally expected.






It has turned cooler this morning, big relief for so many who don`t have the means to cool their homes down. Homes here are solid brick or stone usually, we have cavity wall insulation, roof insulation, double or triple glazing and any other number of ways to keep our homes warm......then this hits every now and again.

Always amazed you get folks who like to still win with their temps though......"oh we`re warmer than that"......they`re welcome to it, quite funny though.

Tom has an early dentist appointment this morning then I`ll head off as our book group is meeting, and won`t get together now till October as a lot of us have trips planned between now and then. It`s at one of the other ladies home so I have nothing to do except bring along something nice for the table. So, as it`s cooler I have cherry and vanilla muffins in the oven, they are quite large, larger than I planned, but will look and taste lovely.

Croissants with marmalade and some fruit this morning, won`t need lunch and dinner is going to be pulled pork burgers tonight, we will still be getting 80F mid afternoon so we should be ok to barbecue for dinner tonight before the supposed lightning will hit, if it does of course.

Have a wonderful Wine Wednesday




​

 

[Lynne G]

Ooh, hello camel on this oh so hot hump day. Yay, already a Wednesday, a mid week of a day, when yay, Friday is two days away now.

Sue, have never seen AP rates so far. In fact when I checked lately, no rooms even available for PB, and only rooms at RP are the most expensive ones, and much higher rates at HR now. If you want the lower tier ones, they do have some AP rates. But I’m sticking with an AP rate at CB for the first night, then a lowest, well highest ever for August, SM rate I got back about a month ago, for the rest of the week at PB. I will keep checking though. And for my September trip, only the ES and DS are available now. Um, I don’t think I’d stay in either of them, unless we are going to other parks besides Universal’s. No desire to be that far away. So happy I got SF for most of my stay, even if double what I paid last year. I’m still thinking of doing a couple of days at Disney before I arrive. So my first 3 nights are still not booked. I will get them booked soon though.

Ah, I think the AC is quiet for now. Was on most of the night. Warm, as was in the low 70’s degrees overnight. And a bright predawn and sunrise. Sunny day. Yep, lunchtime walk will be with hat and water bottle. While I don’t walk far, still good to be prepared to have something cool to drink when it’s sticky hot out. And I’m not very fond of hair sticking to my neck. And while I will also be wearing suntan lotion, any help with shading the face, is why I tend to wear a hat.

Thus, a good morning. And yay for Sue to have no bear trash raiding. That is kinda scary. We don’t have bears, but we do sometime have raccoons make a mess of trash. Our cans are thicker lidded ones, so I haven’t seen a raccoon into the trash lately though. Hope all are doing well.

Schumi, glad to hear cooler morning for you. Yum, muffins sound good. Nice to get together for your book club this morning. Hope Tom’s dentist visit went well.

Back to that early routine. And sipping tea. Not from an office water bottle spigot. Yay, from my tea kettle, where lots of hot water fills my teapot, not a just a cup at a time from that water bottle. I don’t keep a teapot at the office.

Wonderful Wednesday here. Let those Summer heat days be enjoyed. And a good morning to you all too.

 

[Charade67]

Super slow day at work today. Thankfully it will be lunchtime soon.
This has been a weird week. We’ve had a couple of people call wanting appointments and they live 1.5-2 hours away. Most people don’t want to travel that far for a therapy appointment. We’ve also has a couple of parents call in wanting to make appointments for their children. One of the “children” is 27 and the other is 34. I told both parents that since they are adults they would need to call and schedule the appointments themselves. One of them did call to schedule his own appointment. I haven’t heard from the other.

My boss’ husband just called to ask me about some payments that weren’t in balance. She must have told him about my upcoming Universal trip because he asked me about it and was surprised that I was going alone.
A lot of people are surprised when I tell them I’m taking a trip by myself.

I’ve figured out the balancing error. Now to try to find something else to do.

 

[Lynne G]

Crazy Charade. I’ve traveled with and by myself for years. Like a woman can’t go by herself, in this day and age. Yeah, I’m ready for lunch.

Heat Advisory issued from 11 am today, until 8 pm Tuesday. Yes, almost a week. Humid, so not even showing my hair. Hehe, yesterday, had a hump in it, where my hair tie was.

I guess a yay, did pick up AP rates for my first three nights in September at SF. If I put in all my time, only the two lowest hotels are available. Good thing I booked the other 10 nights at SF, though at a good amount more. Hoping if I like my room assignment, they can keep me in that room the whole time. But at least got a few days at a lower rate. Still may cancel and do Disney at the beginning of my trip. Have to see hotel rates at the mouse first. And nope, for my August trip, no AP rates, except the one night I got for CB, due to SW not offering the nonstop flights on the day we were to arrive, and PB not being able to give me the rate I had for an additional day earlier.

Lunchtime. Yay! Time to go out in that heat.

 

[Charade67]

Crazy Charade. I’ve traveled with and by myself for years. Like a woman can’t go by herself, in this day and age. Yeah, I’m ready for lunch.

When I lived in NC my supervisor thought it was weird that I would drive by myself to Raleigh to go shopping. It was just an hour and a half away.
