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

[Charade67]

Tongue in cheek, you could buy DVC & get the “privilege” of buying the Sorcerer’s pass.

Wait...the idea is to spend less money.

Seriously though, we will probably only do the Disney AP for one year. There are so many other places we want to go to, so we wouldn't get our money's worth if we got a AP every year. We are going to attempt to make 2027 a year of Disney. We will probably do a couple of week long trips, and a few weekend trips. I will probably take a couple of solo trips.

Woot! Above freezing today. Yeah, 33 the high today. Break out those shorts. Clouds arrived today, thus making it not as cold overnight last night. But we will pay for it, as every day the rest of the week, drops that temp, until the high on Sunday is 19. Ugh.

 

[Charade67]

Quick hello before work. Today is cloudy and cold but will at least be above freezing. We are supposed to have highs above freezing all week.

Dh has booked his first solo trip as a pass holder. I need to remind him to keep checking hotel rates, because they might go down. He is going in May after graduation. I would go with him, but I'm already taking 2 weeks off in June.

I just looked out the window and see snow flurries. I hope that's all we get.

Wonderful Wednesday to all.

We had another gorgeous winter full sunny day, and if it wasn’t for that cold feeling breeze, was nice feeling out. Again, at least a degree above freezing today. Though with a clear sky, down to 11 degrees overnight. But ugh, saying the low on Sunday is 4 degrees. And, going below freezing the highs until Tuesday next week. Ugh. Rest of this week, and starting next: 29, 29, 25, and 19 on Sunday. Brrr. Cold February weekend coming up.

But yay, saying snow chances right now at the end of next week. We leave soon to do job search and seeing if the town where older one wants to live, is really where he wants to be. Think we will go through towns around that one, to see if he likes or not those too. And hopefully, miss that snow if does do next week, by the time we come home. Looking forward to much warmer weather next week.

Ah, camel says he’s too cold to make an appearance, but always that reminder animal to say, get over this hump of a day feeling day, and fabulous Friday feeling then a day away.

Woot! Into February now, with Super Bowl Sunday this Sunday, and the week after is Sweetheart Sunday. Then we will be half way into February, our shortest month. No leap year either this year.


And already plotting and scheming, with hmm never been in July before. And maybe a September and December trip. With maybe a west coast visit still this Spring. Yay, glad to be that lady of leisure, now.

It's snowing again. Nothing is sticking though. Next week we are supposed to have a couple of days in the 50's. It will be nice to have some of this ice melt away.

never been in July before.

That's one month I am happy to skip along with August. Mid November is the next planned trip for B's birthday. I would like to go sometime before that, but I doubt I will get the chance since we have a 2 week vacation planned for June.

I think I am going to spend most of the rest of today cross stitching. Dh put this cookie skillet in my Christmas stocking.

The pan is a 4 inch real cast iron skillet. I will never use it for cooking again, so I am thinking of putting a small cross stitch project inside of it.

Charade, we had light snowing starting around 6 pm tonight. Supposed to have been a snow squall, as said tonight those snowy squalls seen around the city on the evening news. Enough snow, to be annoying given how cold it felt as we went out to do a Target run after dinner.

Ugh, so cold lately, and local weather news said our temps will plummet later tonight until Tuesday, when high temp will finally above freezing. I know, we are in that coldest month in the calendar, February. Ugh. At least the Ides of March, start a weather changing month, where warmer days are sprinkled with cooler ones. And yes, we even had snow one Easter Day. But at least a day closer to the first day of Spring. And to the time change to day light saving time keeping.

Ooh almost time for my quick trip with older one. Wish him luck he finds a job when we are there. And hoping the town he thinks he wants to be in, is really a nice neighborhood when we visit it.

TGIF, even if I’m not working anymore. Funny, when we went out, we thought the traffic was light for a Friday night. Kids went out late morning and said the same thing, was more quiet in the traffic than a normal Friday. I guess many are on vacation, to CA for the Super Bowl, this weekend.

Hope all are doing well. And have a most wonderful weekend.

Super Bowl day, no dog in the fight, I’m more about the commercials & half time.

Would say food, but appears I picked up a bit of a stomach bug when out & about this week. Rarely, does the smell of food make me cringe. On a positive note, might lose a few #! Will make the wings as promised and just light sides/munchies for the family stopping by.

Again have my granddog here for weekend while his family is off doing indoor track competitions out of state. He’s a real brute to handle

lol

Will say, I have to agree with Ms Carpenter as her choice for the perfect man…well, if I didn’t already have one who happily puts up with me.

We are going to attempt to make 2027 a year of Disney. We will probably do a couple of week long trips, and a few weekend trips. I will probably take a couple of solo trips.

Smart, back in day we’d schedule a trip at both ends of it, then let it slide until the next one.

Worked in the long weekends when the kiddos doing their own thing as adults. Starting that back up again, but weekdays (cheaper getaway usually, especially flights)

I’m sure you will steer him in the right direction. Do you expect your DD to hitch a ride ?

And already plotting and scheming, with hmm never been in July before.

Oh, I cannot describe how hot it is. What’s worse, swear half the guests there don’t use Deoderant. Yuck yuck. That said, we’ve gone over 4th of july for a week or so with the ‘lil solo since she was a tot as she loved the big booms.

That said, it’s like childbirth. A real pain when going thru it, you forget as soon as you get back home & ‘raring to do it again lol

Next week we are supposed to have a couple of days in the 50's. It will be nice to have some of this ice melt away.

We are thrilled to be forecast to hit mid 40’s Wednesday. Currently, 1-1/2 feet of snow still on the ground. Would be nice to see some of it melt.

The pan is a 4 inch real cast iron skillet. I will never use it for cooking again, so I am thinking of putting a small cross stitch project inside of it.

Great idea. For some reason I seem to accumulate a few a year. They usually go straight to goodwill, unopened

It was horrendous here. Got another 4 inches. Mr was picking up DS from work @ 10 pm, on turnpike this night and snow squall hit/white out early. Good thing he has experience/CDL in his pocket and knew how to drive in it (slow & steady)

At least all the semi trucks were pulled over, probably as a fatality earlier with 18 vehicles due to truck. Lynne - you’d prob know the spot from your school days…I-70 on the big downhill curve just past Zelienope exit. It’s one of the worst spots on that stretch, banked very badly on a good day. Hard to tell until you’re right upon it tho if not familiar with the area.

Mr had made the same run the night before and Penn dot was out salting, roads were clear. What a difference a day can make!
