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

[Lynne G]

Taco Tuesday is here. Yay!

At freezing now, but cloudy, so very dark. But sure little one will be in shorts, 53 will be the high temp. Hopefully seeing more warmer days, but as still in Winter, so some still cold overnights. But yay, weather lady said in our 4:30 am news, not only said will see a high 53 today, said there is a high of 70 in our 10 day forecast. That weather news’ high of 70 deserves a woot!

But as such an overcast, 50’s high degree day, it will certainly be warmer one for Mac, who may be on her Taco Bell run for dinner tonight.

And so, that tea and actually was looking forward to getting to my salon visit today. Usually I go on a Tuesday, but for whatever reason, I looked at the calendar, and it’s tomorrow. No matter. A wonderful Wednesday visit is just as good.

Oh no Keisha. Guess one to many shots? My dad had singles, very painful. Hope you feel better soon, so sending very gentle hugs and you’re always welcome to chat to vent. I could get that shot, and oddly you posting getting that shot, as was talking with my youngest brother the other day, as he called as was thinking of getting that shot, and wanted to know if I got it yet. We both remember getting chicken pox when we were very young. I think my mom got that shot and don’t remember her having any other side effects than a sore arm. Don’t think was available when my dad got his shingles.

No Timmy coffee spots where I live, but do get the Timmy coffee pods box in most of our local stores. Eh, as long as the coffee is not so bitter, looking at you Starbucks, I’ll drink coffee black. Bitter coffee, I tend to add a good amount of cream, and a shot of vanilla, to sweeten it up to hope mask that bitter taste. But at home, from our pod machine, no matter what brand we use, I drink it black.

Ah, back to routine I’ve been, so have that most Terrific Taco Tuesday today.

 

[Charade67]

Quick hello before I need to get ready for work. Nothing interesting going on here.

We are going to be flying out of Norfolk when we go to Disney. I had heard that there was a Tim Hortons there. DH likes the coffee. I looked it up and found out it was on a naval base. Oh well, so much for that idea. I have heard that Target sells it here. I may stop by after work and see if my local store has any.

Time to get going. I have an exciting day of client billing ahead. Woo-hoo.

Taco Tuesday it is!
Will be going there twice today
Lunch and dinner time

can’t decide which of the two main favorites I really want so going for lunch and dinner
I prefer hot and fresh so that is why I’ll hit the place twice today

There are two Taco Bell’s in our town/ area
Both are now open for inside eating

 

[macraven]

Mr Mac had shingles some years back and it was awful!
Painful for him and a long time to recover

Hope keisha does not have that happen to her

 

[keishashadow]

Morning all! Cloudy day but will flirt with 50 degrees, perfect day to go out & about to stock the larder & hit up Ross . Easter’s right around the corner, baskets to fill.

Laughing at the irony of me being excited to get a call from Endontist they have a cancellation for next Thursday. will allow me to take first step in next dental marathon - a root canal. Not my first, some have gone easy, others have failed, I’m rootin’ for option #1.

charade - are you talking Tim Hortons restaurants or just buying the coffee? That they sell in kcups at Sams club (for a very good price but lots of it) & also on amazon. It’s a good, basic cuppa I do prefer Peet’s (especially a winter blend - Chalet) & Tullys by a hair.

Sonia, I think many are booking their rooms around the hhn period early as read they wanted a place holder and will adjust later

Rates are high this year but can always drop if the hotels don’t sell out
But I was not going to chance it so booked early like others have done

agree. Also, think the regulars have seen the low rates for mid September & adjusted trip dates to try to take advantage of the 20 - 30% lower rates that have been reported During that time period.

lol....your son is so funny!! But to go from a sore arm to shingles!!!! He might be right Janet....... Glad you`re doing better now though and raring to go.....

oh, goodness no shingles for me, God forbid. My Mom looked so bad, hospitalized etc. just the 1st dose of newer vaccine for them. They’ve decided previous one i had was a bad thing. file it under go with the flow

Mr Mac had shingles some years back and it was awful!
Painful for him and a long time to recover

Hope keisha does not have that happen to her

electric, awful sort of pain I’m told & that it can re-occur if the infected don’t get the vaccine after their bout with it.

Janet....ignore me!! And you also need to ignore my sympathies in the email I just sent you........lol......I really do need to read posts better at times!! Something I`m not normally guilty of........and I knew that was the shot you got!!!

I`m blaming seeing sunshine and no high winds for the mix up......gotta blame something!!!

I had it very mild once, 2 weeks before we were due to fly...of course!! Thankfully I started the huge horse tablets in time and it was fine. I didn`t even know they made tablets so large for human consumption. I was glad they could be dissolved. But, even though it was mild, it was still painful. I had it on my left side just where the waistband of trousers and skirts sit. Ouch. I just realised I never got a vaccine after I had it??? Now wondering if I should have.......

Still loving Wordle!!!






We managed a walk today after all. Waited till a little later till the ice had melted and we did manage our 6 miles, but my legs aren`t half complaining now.....but it is a gorgeous day here!! No wind and blue skies all round which is very unusual for us these last weeks. So, we made the most of it as it could be pouring down tomorrow.

Busy birthday month for us this one, not as bad as September, but we have a few and we also have UK Mother`s Day this month too. So, spent some time online shopping this afternoon. Did ok.

Popped the tv on in the kitchen this afternoon.....watching one hit wonders from the 80`s......some are so crazy that they are complete classics!!!

No lasagne tonight after all, decided to have fish instead, got some lovely huge chunks of cod loin. Will simply roast for a very short time and maybe just squeeze some lemon on it and not bother with a sauce, it`s so beautiful on it`s own.

Is it dinner time yet?? No....... ☺

 

[keishashadow]

No lasagne tonight after all, decided to have fish instead, got some lovely huge chunks of cod loin.

all good

reminds me, Did have an amazing piece of breaded cod at steakhouse77, not at all greasy. That’s a real shocker! If anything is was nearly 1-1/2 inches thick, overpowered the soon to be abandoned brioche bun.

curious, if you found any that meets your approval in the park area? tend to avoid any sort of battered or fried fish in Orlando as more often their’s is a soggy & limp mess. finnegans has been decidedlly hit or miss for me, Lombards a bit better. Know many do love it at both locations. me thinks maybe they just need to change their fryer oil more often

 

[Sue M]

Taco Tuesday already! Where does the time go!
Robo hope you had a nice birthday.

Brother in law got out of the hospital yesterday. He’s still testing positive but breathing much improved. He’s glad to get out of the Covid ward. While he was there 3 people died. Very sad.

On Sunday we enjoyed a lovely lunch with friends. They always put on a nice spread.

Yesterday went to be squished for mammogram yuck. 6 mo recall. Today have to go for my bone density scan. Lots of fun. At least this one doesn’t hurt!

I know I’m missing a lot. But…

Welcome home Pumpkin! I do pack tea when I travel. Although coffee in the morning is a must. Then I switch to tea. What hotel did you take those pics from?

keisha sorry you had a bad reaction to Shingles shot. I seems a lot of people do. I had the old shot and felt really odd after.

Mac I don’t know the truth of it regarding higher room rates, and can’t remember which blog site I read it on but they were saying Universal deluxe hotel rates are going higher to match wdw deluxe rates. I hope this is wrong. Maybe why HHN rates are high? I know my Aug dates for deluxe are high.

Schumi 5 guys here in Canada is really good! I wonder what the difference is in the UK? Love Lasagne! One of my favs, so sad I can’t eat it anymore.

Charade let me know when our trips coincide, I’ll be happy to bring you more Tim’s! When we were in NYC I was surprised to see a Tim’s in the big train stain 34th St across from Macy’s!

Keisha I get Tullys Hawaiian blend when I nip across the border for day trip shop at the Costco in Bellingham. It’s been a long time since we’ve been able to do that
We enjoy Lombards too, but disappointing that some of the dishes were taken off the menu or changed when they changed chefs.

Sorry if I missed anyone it’s hard catching up! And once again only got a few hours sleep, ugh. Getting to sleep was not a problem but staying asleep sure was!

Quick morning stop in

I blinked, and it was time to go to bed. I had a few things to do last night. I had placed a grocery order, and picked that up, whipped up some supper, folded the last of the trip laundry, and applied to a job posting.

I am almost caught up at work now. Yesterday was busy sorting through the piles that were arranged on my desk, emails answered, and papers filed away. Still a few loose ends to tie up, but the bulk of the work is done now.

Sitting in my comfy chair watching a squirrel outside try to find the perfect spot to bury his peanut. My coffee cup is empty.

We had dinner over at another friends house out in their screened in porch. It was a lovely evening. She is a wonderful cook. We had a nice time visiting.

I had lots of phone calls. It is so nice to hear from everyone on my birthday.

I bring my own tea and electric kettle when we travel. I have to have good tea every morning to get going. Some of the TS at Disney have good tea, but most don't. I have also been known to bring my own tea bags to the parks and get hot water.

Hey all! Bouncing back from weird reaction to shingles vaccine I got last Thursday, worse than what I had with covid vaccines. Thinking change in maintenance Rx didn’t help on that front. Of course, the mr just had a sore arm from his given at the same time. As one of my DS said in way of comfort “…that seals the deal, You’re weak

Ah, back to routine I’ve been, so have that most Terrific Taco Tuesday today.

Routines are a good thing. I'm having trouble trying to get back into the swing of ours. I hope you have a terrific Taco Tuesday!

Laughing at the irony of me being excited to get a call from Endontist they have a cancellation for next Thursday. will allow me to take first step in next dental marathon - a root canal. Not my first, some have gone easy, others have failed, I’m rootin’ for option #1.

I hope it goes well for you! Just thinking about the dentist, makes my anxiety sky rocket!
We didn't stay in Daytona. We just had a home base in Orlando and drove everywhere. We were at the Daytona 500 race one day, then we drove to Kenny Space Center and Cocobeach in the same day. One day we went to Clearwater beach and Pier 60. THAT...was a beautiful beach and did an amazing dolphin watching excursion. I might do a little trip report. We had an amazing trip and LOVED every moment!

We managed a walk today after all. Waited till a little later till the ice had melted and we did manage our 6 miles, but my legs aren`t half complaining now.....but it is a gorgeous day here!! No wind and blue skies all round which is very unusual for us these last weeks. So, we made the most of it as it could be pouring down tomorrow.

I will need to get my butt to the gym and get walking again. I am glad your winds has gone down so that you can get back outside. I am not a wind person either. Growing up in the prairies where it is always windy!!!!

Welcome home Pumpkin! I do pack tea when I travel. Although coffee in the morning is a must. Then I switch to tea. What hotel did you take those pics from?

I was going to pack some tea along...then decided I didn't want to be " that crazy lady" lol. Next time I will be bringing my own and asking for hot water.
We stayed at the Best Western on Universal Blvd. It was super close to soooooooooooo many things. It was clean and the beds were amazingly comfy. Dh tends to book hotels for his work crews when they work out of town, and he tries to use Best Westerns, and collects the points - which is why we booked with them for our trip. For us, it worked great. They have a small pool and two little hot tubs as well. The restaurant for end of the day meals was good, but NOT for the buffet breakfast. I only did it once. Not worth the $$$. I've been told I am picky when it comes to breakfast

Well, I should get started shuffling some papers and filling out spreadsheets. Same old boring stuff.

Have a great day everyone!!!

 

[schumigirl]

all good

I love Brioche buns....

Nope, never found any deep fried fish to be decent in Florida. To be fair we prefer fresh seafood not fried, but we have tried it. Everyone raved about 3 Broomsticks fish and chips, so we tried it.......annoyed it was wedges and not chips, but the fish was as you described. Lombards was a disaster for me last time, it was floopy which is worse than soggy lol.....Kyle quite enjoyed his Lombards fish and chips a few visits back, but said it wasn`t as good as we get back here.

So, no, haven`t found one worthy of recommending to folks. Best fried fish I`ve had in America was in Long Island.....oh lordy I`d fly back for that alone......but generally I prefer dishes like stuffed flounder and so on.

Glad your brother in law is home and improving, must be a big relief for you.

I don`t know the difference but they just don`t taste the same at all when American chains appear here. I don`t think we use quite the same amount of salt in dishes here, so might be that.

lol....yes growing up in the wild and woolly West coast of Scotland, we`re used to wind......but never for so many weeks on end! It`s not done yet, but hopefully not every day for the next four weeks.

Yes, hope you get back into your gym routine and walking soon, it does make you feel so much healthier when you start following a routine again.

I found a Tim Hortons in our County, but.....it`s 72 miles away......and as I`m not really a take away coffee/drinks person I doubt we`ll make that journey. So many folks seem to like it for coffee though.





Well, dinner was delicious, fish was lovely, I did end up making a lemon butter sauce in case anyone wanted it, only a little was used.

It`s Pancake Day in the UK today, so we did make some pancakes tonight for dessert. We didn`t toss them as you`re supposed to, so maybe we`re a little dull, but they were nice. Choices of maple syrup, vanilla ice cream, blueberries, cream, lemon curd and some golden syrup which is my favourite.

Both our legs are complaining tonight, so feet up on both sofa`s and tv is on tonight.....but weather permitting, we`ll be back out walking tomorrow.

 

[macraven]

If you keep walking daily, your legs will be in a marathon shape for when you are at UO

You are a wise woman!

lol......unless they give up on me first!!

It`s certainly easier to walk when the weather gets nicer......it`s not fun in the cold. Tom and I certainly encourage each other if one of us doesn`t feel like it some days.....I don`t think I`d walk half the distance we do together if I was walking on my own.

Did you enjoy lunch??? And is dinner Chinese?? I`m craving Chinese now after you mentioned it earlier......might do that at the weekend now.

 

[Sue M]

Pumpkin I know exactly where that BW is. One trip we did a split stay with Hard Rock and The Doubletree just up the block from the BW. It is a great location.

Well off for the Bone Scan.

Lombards was a disaster for me last time, it was floopy which is worse than soggy lol.....Kyle quite enjoyed his Lombards fish and chips a few visits back, but said it wasn`t as good as we get back here.

We had a amazing meal when we were in Coco Beach. We ate on the pier there at this little restaurant. I had the fried grouper sandwich and dh had the fish and chips. We started with a cold crab and shrimp dip with chips. I could have licked my plate it was all sooooooooooo delicious. And I figured since we were eating on the pier that the prices would have been inflated...they were very reasonable and not priced higher at all. I'll see if I can link some of my pictures of that meal.

I'm sure that the Tim's in other countries doesn't taste the same as here. I know that next time I will be packing a few tea bags for me, and probably some coffee for dh. He drank what was offered, but never found one that he liked. And we don't drink Starbucks. It's too bitter.

I hope your legs get a good rest tonight

One of the many things I love about Florida is the fresh seafood, especially shrimp, crab and lobster. There are so many marvellous places like you mentioned and yes, we find prices are so reasonable in America anyway compared with what we pay in the UK....and usually we have much smaller portions over here.

Cocoa Beach is lovely, we had a lovely day in Cocoa Village a couple of years ago, beautiful place.

Would be nice to see your pictures.

 

[Pumpkin1172]

I believe I had a Bahama Momma beverage . I seemed to have a theme of beverages this trip. They were usually very strong filled with lots of rum and fruity . DH was laughing at my choices as he could guess which ones I was going to pick! Gosh I want to go back already

 

[keishashadow]

Carole I will Defer to one who dwells in the land of fish & chips!

Brother in law got out of the hospital yesterday. He’s still testing positive but breathing much improved. He’s glad to get out of the Covid ward. While he was there 3 people died. Very sad.

Good news for your bro, hope he rebounds quickly

Yesterday went to be squished for mammogram yuck. 6 mo recall. Today have to go for my bone density scan. Lots of fun. At least this one doesn’t hurt!

That table got cold & uncomfortable rather quick for my scan. Girls gotta do what they gotta do. Now, it’s time for a treat for being responsible Always works for me

keisha sorry you had a bad reaction to Shingles shot. I seems a lot of people do. I had the old shot and felt really odd after.

I didn’t realize it did cause issues. I try to stay away from that coms when it’s something I really want to do, in all things lol.

old shingles shot given incorrectly & pooled in my arm, ouch

Tullys Hawaiian blend

Oooh that’s my favorite of theirs

Yesterday was busy sorting through the piles that were arranged on my desk

Dripping in positivity…at least they made piles.

One day we went to Clearwater beach and Pier 60. THAT...was a beautiful beach and did an amazing dolphin watching excursion. I might do a little trip report. We had an amazing trip and LOVED every moment!

TR is needed, never did one of those from shore.

it’s not my fav FL beach TBH. Spending 4 days there in April as it was combo of closest/best property option for us. Was booked at an OF BEstW there. Seemed nice. I was happy to find a place further north in Ormond beach (that is past the drive on, hard pack sand). Better to hide from the national cheerleading competition in Daytona I somehow missed when planning this trip too!

We stayed at the Best Western on Universal Blvd. It was super close to soooooooooooo many things. It was clean and the beds were amazingly comfy.

That’s good to hear. I’ve wondered about it and the doubletree

I had the fried grouper sandwich and dh had the fish and chips.

not sure if ive tried grouper or not. Is it string flavor

And we don't drink Starbucks. It's too bitter.

many of their blends are roasted burnt for flavor, bleech Although, I am fond of pikes peak when I can find it at a reasonable price

 

[Sue M]

Keisha we liked the Doubletree. We did a split stay between that and HRH. It was a long time ago during Tropical storm Fay! We were also doing SeaWorld and Aquatica and Doubletree had excellent bus service to both Universal and SeaWorld. More busses than the other hotels nearby.

I love the Gulf Coast. We go to St Pete Beach.

Love Coco Beach too! We’ve had dinner at the pier too! Have stayed at the Hampton Inn. My daughters loved taking the surf lessons at Ron Jon’. The last time it was the same guy that gave the lessons at wdw wave pool at TL.

 

[Charade67]

Quick post before I fall asleep. Nothing interesting to talk about except we are 12 days away from vacation.

Laughing at the irony of me being excited to get a call from Endontist they have a cancellation for next Thursday. will allow me to take first step in next dental marathon - a root canal. Not my first, some have gone easy, others have failed, I’m rootin’ for option #1.

The words easy and root canal just don't seem to belong in the same sentence. Hope it goes well for you.

charade - are you talking Tim Hortons restaurants or just buying the coffee? That they sell in kcups at Sams club (for a very good price but lots of it) & also on amazon. It’s a good, basic cuppa I do prefer Peet’s (especially a winter blend - Chalet) & Tullys by a hair.

I was just looking to buy a bag of coffee. I went to Target today and they do sell it. DH is happy.

Brother in law got out of the hospital yesterday. He’s still testing positive but breathing much improved. He’s glad to get out of the Covid ward.

Great news.

Yesterday went to be squished for mammogram yuck.

I did that on Friday after my dental appointment. The joys of being the daughter of a breast cancer survivor. I had to start getting them earlier than the normal recommended age.

Charade let me know when our trips coincide, I’ll be happy to bring you more Tim’s! When we were in NYC I was surprised to see a Tim’s in the big train stain 34th St across from Macy’s!

Will you be there in September? My dates are 9/20 - 9/24.

I am almost caught up at work now. Yesterday was busy sorting through the piles that were arranged on my desk, emails answered, and papers filed away. Still a few loose ends to tie up, but the bulk of the work is done now.

This is the one thing I dread about going on vacation.

Goodnight everyone.
