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

[Cdn Friends of Pooh]

Evening all ...

Well the rain stopped for the most part today - just weird dark clouds and cool ... but more rain on the way for the rest of the week. Had some tornado activity about 75 miles south of us on Sunday - thank goodness it touched down in a field and not close to any cities/towns.

As much as I hate the rain and storms, we could have it worse. My heart goes out to those families affected by the flooding in the US midwest!

 

[Motherfletcher]

Morning!

 

[ky07]

hope you feel better st L.

is the eye improved?

are the allergies to the doggies acting up again.?



hey andy, i love all the chalupas but my usual is the supreme.

The eye is feeling much better Mac and still can't get to close to the dog without itching and the reason I said dog was because DW couldn't stand watching me suffer and gave the new puppy back to the lady she got him from plus he was chewing up alot of her stuff .
But anywho Good Morning Homies

[bubba's mom]

Morning! Today is the last day Bubba is a 3rd grader....

They have 12:30 dismissal, but a lot of the skools in Phila. are dismissing early due to the heat...heck, some are even closed! I can't remember when skools around here were 'closed' due to HEAT?

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.

Marcie...when i said my hours were less...I meant LESS! I went from 3 days/week to 1 day/week and instead of 7 hours a day, now it's 4.5 I managed to get 2 days off for the summer!!!

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.

sending YOU the mummydust

barb - do so luv the banana counting the hours

i know Not many 's left for us....lookit those tickers go

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

she must be special.......

I noticed....

Used the boat to go house to house and take the people to safety.

I rescued a person who thought he stereo was worth it.

Be safe....you are a true hero to help other (stupid) people in a time of need. A stereo?? Yeah....THAT's important....

Good night homies
Not feeling good but good news is we got our rebate check so I guess thats some stress off cause now we will have a little spending cash for our Universal trip next month

Don't forget to save some $$ for the electric bill when ya get home

Mac, I can't believe mine is going to be 21 in August, that's why I have so much gray in my beard now

That means he'll have a "real" reason to hit on the shot girls at HHN in October, oh my....................

Hard to imagine that he and I can sit together at the Alchemy Bar on our next trip, I'm feeling OOOOLLLLLLLDDDDDD right now

 

[the Dark Marauder]

It rained yesterday!

My corn needs more rain. How else am I supposed to grow my own gas?

 

[Motherfletcher]

Beans?

 

[the Dark Marauder]

The gas from beans is the kind that should be used to make biological weapons. F(art) bombs, anyone?

Update:

1:30 EST...and there are still many STUPID people out there. Water covering a road is not a good thing. While in my boat I rescued 3 cars with people in them. They were trying to cross a road that had water going across it. Now granted, they were screaming and shouting to get over to them and help. But to even try and cross the road was stupid and did I make them aware of that. They had no excuse.
It was a very dangerous situation with a floating car/boat. SO, pleople heed warnings when they say stay off the road, PLEASE.

Other than that, it has been a very hard 16 hour day. So hopefully the weather will calm down and the water will go down back to normal, if there is such a thing.

Thanks for letting me vent!

21 !

i can remember when he was in school............

i think you should be thrilled and relax now he will be 21 and legal.

i prayed a lot for mine to turn 21 as i just knew they would end up in the slammer due to their under age drinking.........and false id's.......

they take after their father not mother


about the gray hairs, well, i found my first 3 yesterday.
i pulled them out.

you're a man, you can color your beard.

HAVE TO VENT ....


Back from a gross day at work for the NYC Department of Education or as we called it today HELL . The mayor and his idiot that runs the schools had them open today after it was 98 degrees yesterday and well 97 so far as i know today. We had kids who were throwing up and just sick from the heat. I had gotten a call from my DD who was in the local JHS and had my dear FIL pick her up at 10 AM because she was dizzy from the heat. It was so HOT I don't understand how these kids are expected to learn anything . After starting with 21 in our class we ended the day with less then 15 . I am so glad I am just a sub and don't hav eto go in if i don't want to it was just insane . I hope it gets better as the week goes on ... OK rant over...

Hope eveyone else is ok . I hear the flooding is bad in parts of the middle of the country I hope that everyone is safe. i know there are many reports on the weather station to NOT cross flooded roads but we can all see how people just don't listen.

Off to go do the wash , get lunch going for the morning and just CHILL out in the basement for awhile . it is nice and COOL down here and the kids are not around me at the moment .

I was totally thinking about the city teachers today! I was in Great Neck and it was HOT. My kids were taking their last exam for me and I had to let them go after they finished because my room was one of the worst in the school.

I thought back to my old school in Brooklyn and felt so bad for the people there. They should have shut down the schools...it was really bad.

 

[macraven]

we don't have ac in our elementary schools.
we just allow them to bring water bottles in and teachers bring in a few fans.

always been like that.

only our high school as air. that helps keep the fights down.....


there are many schools that do not use or have a/c.
the ones i went to downstate illinois never did and still don't.

and we started school in mid august....



the east coast had a heat wave a few years back that was a killer.
hope all of you on the east coast are hanging in there.
