Something About Nothing...........#8

[minniejack]

Just met a guy at the Honda repair shop and he had a Margaritaville, Orlando shirt on...I kept trying to talk Uni with him, but he only wanted to talk about his car and mine! Can you imagine that?--a man only wanting to talk about cars and not coasters? Eeks what's this world coming to??

aw, so sad to hear

To go back to my generic winter whining, tomorrow's forecast warning:

LATE SEASON SNOWFALL EXPECTED ON FRIDAY NIGHT...

AN UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER EASTERN MONTANA AND WYOMING WILL DEEPEN AS IT MOVES THROUGH NORTHERN WISCONSIN ON FRIDAY NIGHT. THIS SYSTEM HAS THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE 2 TO 4 INCHES OF HEAVY WET SNOW ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL AND FAR NORTHEAST WISCONSIN... WITH LESSER AMOUNTS FARTHER SOUTH AND EAST.

PERSONS WITH TRAVEL PLANS ON FRIDAY NIGHT SHOULD EXPECT POOR DRIVING CONDITIONS ACROSS NORTHERN WISCONSIN...

Just what I was hoping for for Mothers' Day!

And I was thrilled that we have no outdoor activities this weekend - no track, tennis, or soccer (although we have kids in all these sports), until tonight at tennis when they were told they scheduled a special tourney for tomorrow night. Hm, I'm going to guess at least with tennis (unlike soccer or track) that if it's snowing, they're not going to play!

Hey homies don't forget tomorrow is Mother's Day!!

 

[donaldduck352]

Hey homies,here is a poem for all the moms outhere.Enjoy!!

You were there when we took our first steps,
And went unsteadily across the floor.
You pushed and prodded: encouraged and guided,
Until our steps took us out the door...



You worry now "Are they ok?"
Is there more you could have done?
As we walk the paths of our unknown
You wonder"Where have my children gone?"



Where we are is where you have led us,
With your special love you showed us a way,
To believe in ourselves and the decisions we make.
Taking on the challenge of life day-to-day.



And where we go you can be sure,
In spirit you shall never be alone.
For where you are is what matters most to us,
Because to us that will always be home...

UPDATE from Mac:


Both parents are hospitalized and gravely ill. Your continued good thoughts and prayers are requested.

 

[Tinker-tude]

Oh, poor Mac.... Prayers for her and her parents.



Happy Monday - is there such a thing? I'm taking the van to get the air conditioner fixed today. Hope they actually manage to do it this time! Third time is supposed to be a charm, but this is an expensive charm.


Hope all the lovely ladies had a great Mother's Day.
