Something About Nothing.......#4

im building an ark tonight.



weather changed.
ducks would love to live where i am now....

hey tennis pro..........my ark is closer to you.
i'll stop by and pick you up in an hour.....



i wish i could complain about the heat.
well, the only heat i have going is when i turn the furnace on.

we are due to have some high humid and heat this week.
i am so looking forward to it.

it makes me want to eat less.
when i eat less i can lose weight.
when i lose weight, i can wear clothes to universal this fall.

if not, it won't be a pretty sight....



morning homies.....

Lori:

Sounds like you better keep it and I will build a new one. So how long did it take to build the ark?....

I have my own rescue boat, which I will be taking with me, and I can only legally hold 6 people.

Yesterday it took me 6 hours (normally 3) to get home from Indianapolis, so i am wondering how long it will take to get up there? I am leaving within the hour.
I will have my laptop always on, so keep me and my family in your prayers.

It didn't take to long. Came in handy too!

Will keep you in my thoughts & prayers.

This is not my first flood. We had a tennis tournament in French Lick (I know, what a name), Indiana. It rained for 2 hours , "hard" and the flood gates opened and people were trapped in their cars, homes, etc. I did the same thing I am about to do and went up there and helped. I pulled 23 people from their cars in the mucky water to safety. the only reason I remember the number is the date was the 23rd.
So, whoevers ark is closer or ready to use, maybe I can pull it behind my boat. Thanks for all the help!

i just love the way youse say McTag Fairy....


hey taminator, i think you feel asleep on me.....

in case you didn't know, i won the game of uno this morning with youse!!

Congratulations on your big win! You should feel very lucky.

You crack me up! I love the word "fierdyness". I still haven't seen Silence of the Lambs, and don't plan to. And that's saying a lot 'cuz I LOVE Anthony Hopkins.

Hey Youse.....

DH put on shorts yesterday and found a IOA map in one pocket and a MK map in the other......it brought on flaskbacks and depressed him soooo much ( no vacation this year,moneys tight) he spent all last night pricing Hols !!

Looks like 09 is a goer !!!

The boys has his first Street dance show tonight and i am beside ma self with excitement.He is so calm but ma butterflies are kicking in already.

Barb: What is this Hersheys place.....a theme park AND chocolate...HEAVEN ?



Suns oot again so am going to have ma lunch in the garden.

Hope the weather gets better for all youse guys suffering,and have a great day.

Hooray for the vacation plans!!!!!!!!!! When are you planning to come?

Hope you get lots of pictures of your kid dancing and post them.

Hershey is a theme park in Pennsylvania. I get to visit for the first time in September, if they're still open then. You peeps in PA - is it open most of the year?

Ok who put the OVEN on ?? I am baked enough now . It is too early for this heat here in NYC. I am thinking that global warming thing may actually be happening ...I think I need a loan to pay my A/C Bill this month .


SO off to return DH's shorts I bought for him and then I am going to the school to pick up the kiddies a little early . It is just too hot for them in that building . Just wanted to say HI .


Gotta run see everyone later .

We're broiling here in MS too. Yesterday it hit 100, so today I'm sitting inside. Unfortunately, I'm feeling really unmotivated and haven't gotten anything done. No laundry, no printing, no studying, no cleaning. Bad me, oh well.

Lori:

Hows is that Ark coming? We are fine down here in Evansville, but the people north of us are in DEEP (get it) trouble. Being the fireman and EMT that I am, I am voluntering to go and help. My work hates it, but sometimes there is more to life than work. If I can save a life, I am doing it.

So, I am off to go up north with boat in tow and pray I can be of service.

Best, best wishes and good luck in volunteering and giving your time and abilities to people who need you! Kudoes, hugs, and prayers coming your way.

Taminator

Sounds like we didn't have it as bad as everyone else! Even though it stormed pretty much non-stop for the last 3 days. Matt's tournament was cancelled yesterday, and just found out his game in Fond du Lac for tonight (closer to Milwaukee) was cancelled as well due to flooding. Talked to my folks in the Detroit area and they said 250,000 people without electricity and temps in the 90's there as well. High today here is supposed to be 75 and overcast so I guess I can't complain! We still haven't flipped the switch on our thermostat from "heat" to "cool"!

Yay!!

7 degrees of arena football
sorry, my trash talking sports mouth tends to do me in

what did the doc say....congrats on beatin' my team

Keisha: its a 9 1/2 hour flight......but worth every minute !!!

Oh My! I can just about handle the 2 hours it takes us!

Same here the heat index is already 93 Hate to see the old eletric bill next month cause it will be due right after we get back from orlando

I know the feeling, we are leaving in two weeks and wondering how hot it is going to be. Should I turn the thermostat up and hopefully it won't be too hot, or should I turn it off all together and then play catch up when we get home?...hmmm

It doesn't really matter, cause we leave in TWO WEEKS!

We turn our air up to about 82-84 degrees while away....that way, it keeps the humidity out of the house It's more efficient to keep your air UP than turn it off...you'll use it MORE trying to cool a hot house. (Another reason to put it on early in the morning before the house heats up or late at night when it's cooling off.)

We've got 4 inches of rain since the middle of the night.

i wish i could complain about the heat.

Well...my summer hours at 1 job start now.... as in = LESS of 'em

Off to take care of dishes....

 

[marciemi]

Well...my summer hours at 1 job start now.... as in = LESS of 'em

Me too! Yay! Mine started last week actually and now I'm working 4 hours a day instead of 5.5 and it seems SO much shorter. Makes so much more sense because I just don't have that much to do so now they get to pay me less and I actually work while I'm there instead of DIS'ing and I get to spend more time with the kiddo's at home! Win/win!

 

[donaldduck352]

Hey goodnight homies.Hope eveyone be safe in the wierd weather we are having.Between the heat and the severe storms,our thoughts and prayers are with ya.Dis tommorrow,I'm out

yea, just a bit north of me got hit bad.

the lake that used to be where tommy barlett/dells did their show, is now part of the river.
the lake flooded and wiped out 4 private homes there.

no lake anymore, just a wider river now.

racine is about a 30 minute drive from me if i don't speed....


if our power would go out, we are doomed.
our sump pump has run every 5 minutes the last 3 days.
we haven't had a bad disaster with a flood since 93.
it wiped out part of a town 10 miles from us on that one.


tennis pro, sending you prayers and mummy dust for your helping the others.

 

[keishashadow]

.

no speeding! u may hydroplane scary, watched what appeared to be pricey real estate tumbling into river @ wisconsin dells area...hope they had flood insurance

mummy dust for the electric to keep humming

with the extreme heat here we've had several power surges, enough to throw off all the clocks, etc.
barb - do so luv the banana counting the hours

too hot for me, catch ya tomorrow

 

[cbdmhgp]

Oh man, what a long day, it seemed like.

Looks like it's about to storm here. Better check the weather channel.

Talk to yall in the morning

 

[macraven]

some people always have a radio on when they are in the house or music on when they are on the computer.


me, i have the weather channel on all the time.
i just love that station.

and the history and bio channel also.

and can't forget true tv.....

 

[RAPstar]

evenin all. I jinxed myself by saying that we had no rain here. it has stomed on and off all day today. But at least it wasn't a terrible day. I had my favortie chicken taco salad from Taco Bell. Yum!

 

[macraven]

taco bell is good.

i go for the chalupas.........supreme style





has anyone noticed that scotlass's tag is a different font and in bold print?

she must be special.......

Update:

I have no idea what small town I am in (between Terre Haute and Indianapolis). Used the boat to go house to house and take the people to safety. This is a very sad thing, worse than the last flood I worked. There are many more homes and property gone than the last one. This flood is so spread out. I went through 4 tanks of gas and had to stop due to darkness.
I am now thankful for my home and family. To see the people's faces when you pull up with a boat is priceless, but to see their faces as we pull away is very sad. It will be a long time before they can enter their homes and then it will take forever for them to get back to normal. I know I am rambling on, but here in Indiana, we usually don't see this type of flooding. More towards the south.
I will be here for another 2 days (my days off from work) and then back to my regular job. I will keep everyone informed and PLEASE if you live near a flooded area, DO NOT be a hero, and try to get into the home, car, etc. Is your life worth it? I rescued a person who thought he stereo was worth it.
