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

[schumigirl]

It is VERY interesting!

I love how people are pointing out how she tends to dress the next day in some way the way Johnny dressed the previous day. For someone who says he is a " fat, boring old man" and who has no fashion sense, even though he is working with Gucci - she is dressing like him! She is a freaking nutty narcissist. #teamJohnny

Yep, teamJohnny here too......don`t believe a word she has said over the years.

And yes, folks that copy and mimic like that, well, there`s something amiss with that too and she certainly has something amiss with her!

Makes me want to go watch PoTC movies......

 

[Charade67]

Somewhat slow day at work today. I spent part of the morning fighting with an insurance company, but haven’t had much to do since then.

Tomorrow after work a friend and I are headed over to Busch Gardens. She has never been before. As a pass holder I get a few free guest tickets each year. We should have a really nice day on Friday.

Well, this morning, I’m still annoyed with this head cold. I did take that virus test, and it was negative

Good to hear. Hope the cold goes away soon.

Woohoo! I managed to get Napa Rose at Disneyland for Father's Day dinner.

I went to look up that restaurant and got stuck in an online waiting room for almost an hour. Are you staying at the Grand Californian? We are considering the lead expensive of the Disney resorts when we go next year.

Cough is FINALLY starting to lessen and loosen up. I'm giving it one more day before heading to the dr to see if it's bronchitis or something else. I hate that my lungs take longer to recover from cold/flu. I believe it is because of my allergies. Ds is the same. Our lungs are always fighting some sort of inflammation due to allergies...so a cold just seems to make things worse.

Glad you are starting to feel better. Hope it is nothing worse than a cold.

That's awesome! We have never been to Disneyland. We want to take gd there when she is old enough. I can't wait to take her. It will require me to lots of research when we go there.

We really enjoyed DL when we went. I thought it was going to be a one and done trip, but we all want to go back again.


I have an hour to kill before I get off work. I need to find something to do.

Oh, I'm sorry. I should have warned you. World of Color Dessert party reservations opened up today. I think it starts showing on 4/22, so people are freaking out trying to get them. I got in before that mess, because they didn't release as early as normal Disneyland dining. We are staying at the Disneyland Hotel. We stayed there once before. We haven't stayed at the other two. I really want to stay at Grand Californian, but DH really likes the Disneyland Hotel. The Disneyland onsite hotels are pretty nutty expensive. Well, that's what I thought until WDW and UO/Loews starting upping their prices. We ended up at a pretty bad hotel right off of Harbor across from the main gate the first time we visited. It looked like it hadn't been touched since the 80s, including towels and bedding They have since changed owners, built a new tower, and did some remodeling, but we are a bit gunshy now. Once we stayed at Disneyland Hotel, DH didn't want to stay anywhere else. I don't mind

I suspect there are shenanigans going on with both Depp and his ex. It does take two to tango. However, I wonder what the point of bad mouthing him is. If he committed crimes, then file charges. It reminds me of the OJ trial. I watched the chase and the whole trial, so I can't bring myself to watch this stuff anymore.

Well, that was a nice nap. Woke up around 7 or so, to hear little one say she ordered those cheap on Wednesday dumplings for dinner. And they were very good. Then saw we had chocolate ice cream in a small tub. Looked like someone ate about a third of it. Well, I ate the rest of it. Was just perfect sweet after those fried items.

Now, that later evening tea. Warned DH, I will be passed out sooner then him tonight. He and the kids are watching whatever on their screens, with DH’s being the closest and loudest. When I am truly tired, I can sleep through almost anything. Including whatever noisy movie DH is watching. And a hehe, he’s been known to watch with his eyes closed at times.

And so, if ever a good day for me to stay hydrated, it’s a Thursday tomorrow. Not feeling well or feeling well, it is good to keep your body hydrated enough. And with that cold front slipping ever so slowly away, that still clear night will dip the temps near freezing again. But even with the clouds arriving in the later wee hours, and predicted to be a mostly cloudy Thursday, the high temps are starting to be warmer. Tomorrow, thermometer will show a high of 60 degrees. Nice. Winning weekend day? Sunday predicted to be a full day of sun, with 84 the high. Double woot if that prediction is true. Woot Woot! Though even warmer would be nice. Just saying.

So a good night from me. And a light on, even though it’s very dark out, and the moon is not full yet, light is needed. No stubbing toes as waking from that slumber, to take a wee or get a snack.

 

[keishashadow]

‘Lovely‘ morning at the eye doctor, pretty sure I was the youngest person there. That rarely happens these days used to take an hour, maybe 1-1/2 for the appointment, depending on the different tests. Today, it just drug on for hours.

Practice was sold to one of the huge hospital groups. My doctor (co-owner) is still there. Told me he sold the business as he didn’t want to do surgery any longer. Surprised he’s still practicing at his age TBH. May be time to shop around for a new practice.

I did take that virus test, and it was negative.

yea! file it under captain obvious but, I was initially amazed how long of a swab could fit up one’s nose We have our appts for booster #2 (#4 shot) tomorrow. just a half dose this time, hoping for only mild side effects this time!

I think the only advantage of staying at the Disneyland Hotel is that you are more likely to make it back from your room when you have been drinking all day at Trader Sam's

Nwahahaha. Their drinks are strong, One usually does the trick for me…lightweight I am. It is more of an experience than the WDW version, ‘fer sure.

Once, tromping back to GC from TS (via a rather dark parking lot ‘shortcut’), nearly face planted after tripping over a speed bump.

before they remodeled the last time & substantially trimmed back the tropical landscaping at DLH, we ’sorta’ got lost trying to find our way back to our room in the main building our first visit. Again, after visiting TS.

That’s what I like about DIsney, the constant adherence to a theme

Still had to trudge through snow this morning

Oh my! All melted here, thankfully. Our low 50’s this afternoon felt absolutely balmy after the last few days.

Makes me want to go watch PoTC movies.

absoutely One of the alerts I got from TMZ today was rather disgusting, didn’t open that one up

Tomorrow after work a friend and I are headed over to Busch Gardens. She has never been before. As a pass holder I get a few free guest tickets each year. We should have a really nice day on Friday.

Wow, that sounds like a blast waiting to happen. Enjoy

We are considering the lead expensive of the Disney resorts when we go next year

we never tried PP as it’s the most far flung. I’m told many of the properties on Harbor are a faster walk to the front gates.

We did great wolf offsite there, not as far away/Uber as I expected in traffic & they dropped us right on Harbor. Somehow, we managed to miss all the traffic the way it came.

We haven't stayed at the other two. I really want to stay at Grand Californian, but DH really likes the Disneyland Hotel. The Disneyland onsite hotels are pretty nutty expensive. Well, that's what I thought until WDW and UO/Loews starting upping their prices.

We‘ve only done the DVC studio portion of GC. No FW view etc, the fir trees of grizzly run ?mostly As a view Walk is short, nice to have the private entrance. However, I definitely give the nod to DLH’s poolscape. We do make sure to visit their lobby and have dinner or lunch one day to enjoy their vibe.

is DLH under construction now for the DVC tower?

I do love the pool and history at DLH. We are going to eat at Napa Rose for Father's Day dinner, so we will definitely get to visit the GC.

Yes, DLH is under construction. I am a little concerned. I have read some reports of noise, but people said it was during the day. We aren't going to be napping during the day, unless we had way too much at Trader Sam's, then we won't even notice the noiseI think it was the noisiest when they were tearing down the AMC in Downtown Disney though.

I am always a little gun shy of construction, since staying at Poly during the pool and Great Ceremonial Hall construction. We had a balcony that faced the pool. They were doing loud construction with bright lights until midnight every night. I sent an email when we got home, and they basically gave us a free night. It was much cheaper then though.

 

[Sue M]

Schumi thanks so far she has no symptoms. Fingers crossed.

Lynne hope you’re feeling better now. We’re having a very rainy night here and rain beating on window. So socked in I can’t see anything out the windows but a vague outline of mountains. I’m glad I got my errands done earlier. Bought fixings for Nordstrom tomato bisque. Perfect on a night like this. It came out really well.

Keisha add me to the never heard of Logan’s list. Taxes ours are due at the end of the month but we had ours prepared by our accountant April 1. A suitable day for it lol!

Schumi now I have a pic in my mind of the Griswald turkey! Always have to watch that around Christmas time!
My turkey came out quite well. One of the couples remarked they had a terrible turkey Saturday at his family’s dinner. Very dry. So they were very happy to get our invite lol.

Glad we have a 4 day weekend here. Even though we’re retired, things are quieter, less people on the road etc.

Pumpkin sorry to hear you’re under the weather too! You need to move to BC! No snow here. A good thing since I had my snow tires off for weeks. Feel free to pick my brain anytime about DL!

Soniam yay for Napa Rose. sounds like a great trip! Are they doing the World of Colour dessert party? That was so much fun!

Tomorrow sadly I have to go to the funeral of a past workmates husband. So sad.

It reminds me of the OJ trial. I watched the chase and the whole trial, so I can't bring myself to watch this stuff anymore.

I listened to the tapes, hours long at times.....she`s a fruit loop and I`ve never heard someone being screamed at so calm as JD was. She`s changed her stories so many times in regards to how he lost the tip of his finger and so on and how she challenged him to claim she was abusing him and how no one would believe him......horrible woman. His story has been consistent all along.

I love trials. I watched every second of the Casey Anthony trial and many others too, and worked our meals around that one with the time difference......then completely gutted as they let her off.

lol....yes, it`s nice when we are the youngest anywhere now......

Yes, there were some horrible moments today I wish I`d never seen. I did find somewhere screening it without the ads of Court TV which was dreadful.....so whatever I do get to see of it now I have no ads......just wanted to give JD a big hug!!!

Schumi thanks so far she has no symptoms. Fingers crossed.

Tomorrow sadly I have to go to the funeral of a past workmates husband. So sad.

Glad to hear your daughter is symptom free, yes fingers crossed.

Funerals are never nice, but hope it goes as well as can be expected.




Beautiful sunny and surprisingly frosty morning today, sunrise was stunning so it is going to be a gorgeous day I think, maybe not warm but if the sun shines, all is good.

Another day with not much going on, have a parcel being delivered that I`m expecting sometime between.....7am and 9pm........yes, that narrows it down thank you very much! They`ll give us an estimated time in an hour or so hopefully then I can track it. Much prefer if it`s in a 2 hour time frame delivery.

Some kind of fish for dinner tonight, Sea Bass if we can get it I think, if not whatever looks nicest. Lunch is turkey noodle soup I made with the beautiful stock from the turkey and will buy some bread as I have no time to make any this morning. Heading out to do some shopping this morning.

Happy Thirsty Thursday




​

 

[Lynne G]

A happy thirsty Thursday. With that nap, I went to bed even before my usual bedtime. Woke up around 1 am, said it’s crazy, go back to sleep. And so, my body clearly needed even more deep sleep. Next thing I heard was the alarm go off. As not commuting, so took a few more minutes to get moving.

Those ringing ears are annoying, but at least my nose doesn’t seem as runny, and my throat is still not sore now. But still have a thumping headache that is making my tummy unsettled. Ah yes, huge telework perk when not feeling well? Access to your own bathroom. Puking in private, at least I have that.

DH is out the door, but he’ll be back later this afternoon. Local part of a huge university system has had in person classes all semester. So, DH goes in, even if he finds no kids. That has happened every so often in the two classes he teaches. He doesn’t care. He has been teaching online and in person for many years, even before the virus times. So far, no other family member has what I have, thankfully.

I think I’m on my third cup of tea. Feel very thirsty for some reason. As, and so, with this headache still thumping after pills with my tea, I am thinking might take one of older one’s allergy pills. While I don’t have that virus ( yes Keisha, icky and eww that went where?) with that stick up the nose test. I was pretty sure was not that virus, as between little one showing allergy reactions and older one sounding asthmatic, the fact that my sinuses are sounding the alert, makes me think just a generic sinus bug. Hope your 4th shot is easy. Eek, to that long for a eye exam. Yeah ours take about an hour and a half. I try to get either a late appointment or first one, as the guy I go to, does not manage his work flow well at times.

So, confess, not interested in seeing TV shown legal cases. Though such are usually in news clips, so I will sometimes read or watch those.

We have been West quite a few times. Three times to SD area, and three times to LA area. Twice stayed at the GC and once at DL hotel. The one at the DL hotel is where they messed up my reservation, and I got a Downtown view. Was fun, as kids were young, and we did a 5k around the parks that year. But GC standard room stays were almost over the building. The one, I could clearly see my rental car in the parking lot, which was across the street. But that access to the park was awesome. One afternoon, older one wanted to hang in the pool, but little one wanted to do that water ride. So with tickets in a plastic bag, we rode that water ride more than a few times, then went for pool fun, meeting up with older one. I agree, as long as I can afford it, I will stay at a Disney hotel at both coasts’ parks.

But as still a routine day, I’m highly thinking of taking some sick leave. With tomorrow off, and not having to drop the car off until around 9 tomorrow morning, more time to relax is what I probably need.

Terrific Thirsty Thursday homies. I’m keeping that tea down so far, so all keep hydrated like me. Particularly when your body says you need a drink.

A hearty good morning. And with all that tea, still need the loo. Later homies. Start that smile. Friday is one sleep away. Yay!

Clear sky is starting to end, but yay, we are at 40 already.

 

[macraven]

Lynne, sounds scary what you have !
Get In to see your doctor.

Three days of feeling ick and no improvement can be a concern for you

 

[schumigirl]

It is dull, misty and downright cold here. That seafret brings a lot of cool air in with it.....not quite fogbound, but it is rolling in.

Had to go out twice as we bought Tom two polo shirts today, got home and wanted to get them washed straight away.....security tags still on them. So, back down for them to remove them. Ironically the alarm set off as we entered the store but not when we left this morning.

Got my friends watching the Depp/Heard defamation case too.....we watch and txt as it goes on. Yes, two quite troubled people, only the darn lawyers will win out of this one.

And warm cuppa tea time now we`re home.......heating is on, dryer is on as there`s no point in hanging any washing out, it wouldn`t dry.

Yep, tea time......

 

[Lynne G]

Thanks Mac. If I’m not feeling better tomorrow, will ring the doctor. Did take older one’s allergy drug to see if any help with headache. Just not a nice sinus bug.

Ooh, hate that Schumi. Had that happen a few times. At least the last time, it rang as we left, and promptly went back to checker to remove tag. But the one, awhile ago, we walked all through the mall, entering and exiting more than a few stores, only to find a tag on an item we bought in the first store we entered. You wonder if those tags all work right or scanners not set always right to detect. Pain in the butt to have to track back to store for removal.

Ah, a nibbling of plain toast seems to have stayed down. I turned all electric items, including the light, and just relaxing with a bag of frozen carrots on my head.

I rarely am sick and even more rarely have such a bad headache. But when I do, I’m not the best patient.

But yay, warmer weather, though with more of those soaking April showers. And took a little walk outside thinking fresh air good to breathe, and yay, the two bushes I planted, poor little sticks right now, are still alive and growing. Glad, given the hard freeze night and close to freezing last night temps.

 

[Charade67]

Today is going to be a very long day. I have already completed almost everything I need to do today.

Oh, I'm sorry. I should have warned you. World of Color Dessert party reservations opened up today. I think it starts showing on 4/22, so people are freaking out trying to get them. I got in before that mess, because they didn't release as early as normal Disneyland dining. We are staying at the Disneyland Hotel. We stayed there once before. We haven't stayed at the other two.

Once we stayed at Disneyland Hotel, DH didn't want to stay anywhere else. I don't mind

That makes sense now. The last time I had to wait in an online DL waiting room was when I was trying to get reservations for the new Star Wars land.
The last time we were at DL we stayed at one of the cheaper hotels within walking distance. This time I am hoping to splurge a little and stay on property.

Practice was sold to one of the huge hospital groups. My doctor (co-owner) is still there. Told me he sold the business as he didn’t want to do surgery any longer. Surprised he’s still practicing at his age TBH. May be time to shop around for a new practice.

That happened with my previous eye doctor. He sold his practice to a group that is literally called My Eye Doctor. He retired a year or 2 later. I found a different practice.

Wow, that sounds like a blast waiting to happen. Enjoy

I’m not sure how much of a blast it will be. My friend can’t ride many rides due to a back condition. We will be doing a couple of animal encounters and maybe a show and then probably calling it a day. We should have great weather tomorrow for it.

Tomorrow sadly I have to go to the funeral of a past workmates husband. So sad.

So sorry to hear that.

I love trials. I watched every second of the Casey Anthony trial and many others too, and worked our meals around that one with the time difference......then completely gutted as they let her off.

I could not stomach the whole Casey Anthony thing. I still can’t believe she isn’t spending the rest of her life behind bars.

A happy thirsty Thursday. With that nap, I went to bed even before my usual bedtime. Woke up around 1 am, said it’s crazy, go back to sleep. And so, my body clearly needed even more deep sleep. Next thing I heard was the alarm go off. As not commuting, so took a few more minutes to get moving.

Glad you are able to get some much needed sleep. Hope you are back to your usual self soon.

Had to go out twice as we bought Tom two polo shirts today, got home and wanted to get them washed straight away.....security tags still on them. So, back down for them to remove them. Ironically the alarm set off as we entered the store but not when we left this morning.

Something similar happens to me once. I bought something for B at a kid’s store in the mall. I walked down the the other end of the mall and exited through JC Penney. The alarm at Penny’s went off. I had to go back to the kid’s store to get them to remove the tags. No alarms sounded at the kid’s store.


Just over an hour and a half until lunch. Could this day be any slower?

 

[Sue M]

Lynne I agree with Mac, go see your doctor! Do you have home Covid tests? I’d do that too just in case. Hope you’re feeling better soon.

Schumi I haven’t been listening to the JD case, just what I hear on the news. I think she’s a wackadoodle. And don’t understand why she is persists trying to drag him thru the mud.

Last night it sure was blowing and foggy for awhile. Rain beating on windows. Yuck. This morning pretty grey out there and a light rain. Weather app says rain for the next 24 hrs. Worst spring ever!

Daughter still symptom free so guess she didn’t get it. She did have the virus in January and vaccinated so guess she dodged a bullet.

Our gardener moved to Saskatchewan so husband found another one. It’s a woman in early 40’s. She came yesterday and did a good job. Only thing I wasn’t happy about is she doesn’t take away the grass clippings so uses our green bin. She doesn’t have a truck. Just a trailer for equipment. But guess I can live with it. She’s very nice, and a single mom.

No bacon this morning. Oatmeal. DH says he’s going out to the butcher today

Have a good Thursday everyone.

 

[Pumpkin1172]

It's thirsty Thursday!

Just waiting for some papers to arrive on my desk. Seems the guys out front are busy with other things this morning. Customers seem to be demanding items that are on order. It's not like we have little steel cobblers in the back who can magically make material appear . I'm just waiting for the next nasty phonecall where I am barked at as well. I'm as sweet as pie when they try to bully/push me on the phone to talk to who they want to!

Not much to report today. After a big coughing spell this morning and moving some crud out....my cough hopefully is on the way out. But I did get to the gym to get some steps on the dreadmill last night. AND...hopefully today it warms up and the snow melts. Roads are now dry...so that's a bonus.

I can sleep through almost anything. Including whatever noisy movie DH is watching. And a hehe, he’s been known to watch with his eyes closed at times.

That's me as well I've had to learn to sleep through things, as dh is not a great sleeper and would wake me. And dh watches tv through his eyelids too

Pumpkin sorry to hear you’re under the weather too! You need to move to BC! No snow here. A good thing since I had my snow tires off for weeks. Feel free to pick my brain anytime about DL!

I would love the mild weather of winter, but the cloudiness would almost be worse for me. I NEED the sunlight. My emotional/physical stasis needs to have sunlight to function. Even dh notices the differences in my when we are in our different seasons - or like when we were in Florida this past trip. We have been discussing how we are going to be able to spend more time in the sunshine during winter months.
I will be taking you up on the offer of Disneyland tips and tricks We really can't wait to take gd there!

I did find somewhere screening it without the ads of Court TV which was dreadful.....so whatever I do get to see of it now I have no ads......just wanted to give JD a big hug!

Your very right. No one is going to win in this case. I want to wrap him in a huge hug as well. I hope that after this is all done, he is able to find some peace and start to live his life the way he wants on his terms.

I think I’m on my third cup of tea. Feel very thirsty for some reason. As, and so, with this headache still thumping after pills with my tea, I am thinking might take one of older one’s allergy pills. While I don’t have that virus ( yes Keisha, icky and eww that went where?) with that stick up the nose test. I was pretty sure was not that virus, as between little one showing allergy reactions and older one sounding asthmatic, the fact that my sinuses are sounding the alert, makes me think just a generic sinus bug.

((((( Lynne ))))) I wish I lived closer to deliver a blanket, tea, meds, and a couple of meals for you! It sucks being sick. I can deal with pain, horrible colds, migraines...but if there are stomach issues, I'm DONE!!!

Got my friends watching the Depp/Heard defamation case too.....we watch and txt as it goes on. Yes, two quite troubled people, only the darn lawyers will win out of this one.

I've got it steaming on my computer at work. You can see how much pain and embarrassment he has over everything. NO ONE should have to hear such private details of someone life.

Just over an hour and a half until lunch. Could this day be any slower?

And those days go even slower! You will get through it. At least you get paid for it. I used to say to the young peeps when I was working at TJX about having to do door screening. If they are willing to pay me " x amount" of money to say hello to people walking into the store...then I will do it. Easiest job in the world.

Well, I should go seek out some of those papers.

Have a great day everyone

Yes, I still hold a grudge that she got away with murdering that beautiful baby.

Yes, I think it happens a lot according to the lady in the store, she wasn't surprised we had left without the alarm sounding.

Hope your day passes quickly…….

Lynne I agree with Mac, go see your doctor! Do you have home Covid tests? I’d do that too just in case. Hope you’re feeling better soon.

We said the same, worst spring ever.

What a coincidence…….we nearly lost our gardener too. He was planning a change of lifestyle, but decided to keep doing what he’s doing, we are so glad as he is a really hard worker and does a wonderful job. Hope you’re happy with the new lady.

It's thirsty Thursday!

It's not like we have little steel cobblers in the back who can magically make material appear . I'm just waiting for the next nasty phonecall where I am barked at as well. I'm as sweet as pie when they try to bully/push me on the phone to talk to who they want to!

Not much to report today. After a big coughing spell this morning and moving some crud out....my cough hopefully is on the way out. But I did get to the gym to get some steps on the dreadmill last night. AND...hopefully today it warms up and the snow melts. Roads are now dry...so that's a bonus.


That's me as well I've had to learn to sleep through things, as dh is not a great sleeper and would wake me. And dh watches tv through his eyelids too

I would love the mild weather of winter, but the cloudiness would almost be worse for me. I NEED the sunlight. My emotional/physical stasis needs to have sunlight to function. Even dh notices the differences in my when we are in our different seasons - or like when we were in Florida this past trip. We have been discussing how we are going to be able to spend more time in the sunshine during winter months.
I will be taking you up on the offer of Disneyland tips and tricks We really can't wait to take gd there!

Your very right. No one is going to win in this case. I want to wrap him in a huge hug as well. I hope that after this is all done, he is able to find some peace and start to live his life the way he wants on his terms.

((((( Lynne ))))) I wish I lived closer to deliver a blanket, tea, meds, and a couple of meals for you! It sucks being sick. I can deal with pain, horrible colds, migraines...but if there are stomach issues, I'm DONE!!!

I've got it steaming on my computer at work. You can see how much pain and embarrassment he has over everything. NO ONE should have to hear such private details of someone life.

And those days go even slower! You will get through it. At least you get paid for it. I used to say to the young peeps when I was working at TJX about having to do door screening. If they are willing to pay me " x amount" of money to say hello to people walking into the store...then I will do it. Easiest job in the world.

Well, I should go seek out some of those papers.

Have a great day everyone

It’s horrific. For such a private person with adhd and other issues I cannot imagine what it must be like. Yes, no winners here. People keep saying they deserve each other, but no one deserves this.

Glad you’re feeling better, hopefully you’ll be back to normal soon……





Managed to get some Sea Bass for dinner tonight, will lightly poach it in some white wine, lemon, garlic and cream, few parmentier potatoes and cauliflower roasted and we’re done for dinner. I’m starving, won’t be too long till we eat now.

Fog/mist seems to have cleared, but still cold outside. Glad I’m not going out tonight.

Hey all. A King Kong Kat set off my security alarm at least 8 times last night. Biggest one I’ve ever seen. At first thot it some mutated raccoon hybrid with strange coloring lol. He won’t be long for the world, just too many scary things roaming the woods looking for a free meal.

Schumi thanks so far she has no symptoms. Fingers crossed.

Good to hear!

His story has been consistent all along

Absolutely, the best in their field haven’t been able to rattle him one bit.

Sea Bass if we can get it I think

Don’t think i’ve ever tried it, regular stream bass yes…it’s good, just can’t say it moved me. same with brook trout, i just ate far too much of it as a child of the stream to table sort, why are we having fish again the 5th time this week complaint During trout season.

the mr hasn’t had a chance to get out in the water this year yet. I tell him to catch & release, just have grown adverse to fish heads & those accusing eyes at this stage of the game.

the fact that my sinuses are sounding the alert, makes me think just a generic sinus bug.

It’s ironic how now most of us tend to compare their regular ailments to covid and are ‘glad’ To have the former, not the latter

But GC standard room stays were almost over the building. The one, I could clearly see my rental car in the parking lot, which was across the street

oh geez, I’ve seen those ones literally right above the DTD area & wondered if noisy

Ironically the alarm set off as we entered the store but not when we left this morning.

you really have to wonder

Just not a nice sinus bug.

sinus infections if not totally cleared up, often come back with a vengeance and twice as hard. Keep an eye on it.

He sold his practice to a group that is literally called My Eye Doctor.

That is hysterical, talk about name recognition

We will be doing a couple of animal encounters and maybe a show and then probably calling it a day

Well, enjoy the company and grab a nice bite to eat. It’s been years but, i remember the food was pretty good there. Still?

And don’t understand why she is persists trying to drag him thru the mud.

There is no such thing as bad publicity to a narcissistic actor

Our gardener moved to Saskatchewan

In our area we are surrounded by towns, rivers etc. with long names of Indian origin. Able to rattle off the spelling easily in the primary grades. Will freely admit that the spelling of that name has always stumped me

Not much to report today. After a big coughing spell this morning and moving some crud out....my cough hopefully is on the way out. But I did get to the gym to get some steps on the dreadmill last night

i’m guessing the ‘dreadmill’ (lol love that term) may have loosened up the crud…a good thing?

Managed to get some Sea Bass for dinner tonight

I meant to mention...the market price for it in Daytona was astonishingly pricey. More than beef filet Perhaps due to not being local catch or in season?

after our shots, we will be ‘celebrating’ the mr’s retirement at McDonald…McDonalds works for me (today). Not especially hungry, think i finally hit bottom after the Easter leftover feeding frenzy

Did not know what I wanted for dinner
Quick decision on bbq plate that is a short drive from our house

Damn good food….

Pizza night. Little one’s request. Good choice, as both guys will be home later tonight, and neither cares if the pizza is not hot.

Still have a dull headache, but at least the upset belly is no more. Think older one’s allegory pills helped, so took another dose after dinner. At least no alarm needed tomorrow. Though I expect to be up early anyway. It will be a coordinated schedule with my car in the shop. Littke one will follow me, then drop me off at my sister’s, as she’s closer to the shop then we are, then go back home, and then take older one to work, and hope my car will be done by the time little one is coming back to my sister’s after his drop off. If not, little one and I may run to the outlets, as her place is even closer to those closest ones then us. Last time the car was done not much after lunchtime. Hoping that is true or even earlier this time. But on our way to whatever we feel like doing, we will drop off older one’s car at his work, after I get my car back.

Decided to make an evening pot of tea. One without caffeine. Think a lemon flavored one. One of my favorite. House almost feels cool, but the heater is still on. Most likely will hear it run later tonight. So some hot tea is perfect.

Hope all have a most lovely Thursday night.

And yeah:

Hope whatever ails you Lynne, will be gone by the time you wake up tomorrow morning!

You have a busy schedule tomorrow and hope you can zip and zag and rock and roll when out.

A quiet day at my house
Trying to catch up with busy work I had put aside last few days


A shout out to all the homies !
One more day until the weekend
( our weekend begins each Friday)
