Something About Nothing..........# 9

[ky07]

I am alive and well. OK....alive at least! Yeah.....our area got nailed really bad! Lucky for us (but not so for the others), it was about 20 miles north of our house. We were in the basement twice on Friday night. There were two huge tornadoes on the ground, one just north of us and one just south of us. It was not such a "good Friday".

The north storm was an EF4 with winds around 200 mph. When it hit the airport it was an EF2 but it was on the ground for 22 miles and did tons of damage. I really feel for the families that got affected by it.

There is bad weather coming at us again today and tomorrow. The flooding is going to be horrendous!

I wish you all a safe and Happy Easter.

So glad you and your family are safe MH and hope you continue to be safe

Happy Easter Again Everyone

Glad you are safe MH

Hot tub is fantastic and yep it is salt sanitizer--relatively new idea for spas and we got it at cost since we're the first in the Burgh area to get installed on a hot tub. You put salt in and the generator turns it into chlorine. Cool.

And I was just thinking this is just like being on vacation and then I realized it's EXACTLY like being on vacation. DH has been grumping all afternoon while I've been running around picking up wet towels and throwing into the washing machine while slurping down massive quantities of wine to drown out the grumping... yupp just like vacation

i thought like keisha thought.......

Hope everyone had a good and happy easter!

Just got done eating round one of left overs. Been eating easter candy for about 2 weeks now... and will probably continue for the next month

I feel like we all need to go to a theme park to work off this meal, What do you say?

Besides using most of the apartment as his bathroom and terrorizing his big "brother".....not much surprisingly. He's only 7 weeks old.

DD's BF just came to the house with two free chinchillas

really cute, but come on, the kid has SIX dogs

Hey, Homies!

Long time no read or post. I forgot I needed to tell the board to forward emails from the new SAN home.

Happy Easter!

I may have the chance to go to Orlando several time this year for dog shows. I went to the Universal website to get prices for annual passes, but the only links that worked were the ones for the Florida residents. Does anyone know what the annual passes cost if you're NOT a FL resident?

oh my! How do you possibly leave for theme parks with all those animals! We only have two and we have problems!

Unless you're saying the boyfriend has 6 dogs..

 

[Tinker-tude]

Mad, so glad you're okay with all the tornadoes in your neck of the woods.

We had constant tornado sirens going off Wed.-Sat. down here, too. Luckily, we avoided anything more than tons of rain and wind. Unfortunately, we had lightening strike close enough to our house that we lost our internet and the brand new fridge hasn't worked since then. We lost most of the stuff in the fridge before we realized it wasn't going to "reset" the way the owner's manual said it would. So we're keeping a few things in coolers until the Samsung guys get around to our house. The warranty had better cover this....


On a better note, we adopted a new Ridgeback dog named Roo from a breeder and we're fostering another one named Honey until we find the perfect home for her. Roo is a show dog whose first owner lost her job and couldn't afford to show her anymore. So she was returned to the breeder who has her hands full with three other dogs she's showing, and two retired female dogs who won't let Roo integrate into the pack. I'm going to try to finish her championship this summer/fall. Honey is a 2 y/o whose owners were getting ready to have a baby and just didn't want to bother with her anymore. Grrrr.... Their loss is someone else's amazing gain. It's so great having a house full of playing dogs again. Rock was lonely without Brodie, and now he has two friends to keep him company.

oops....
i left a trail of popcorn for homies to follow.
dang birds.


i renewed my AP, the preferred one at the older cost.
$155.xx or something like that.

to buy them new, first time, i thought it was up to $249.

i am probably wrong but couldn't let your question go by without making a comment on it.



some homie here will come in and correct me.

i am so glad you have been found.....

happy easter!

That's twice that I've forgotten to subscribe to the thread.

Three times is a charm....

Strange- usually people just cant find the link. Was about to post it for you when I realized its REALLY not working like you said! ha.

Last checked, which was only a month ago, the preferred passes were $229 plus tax. Preferred $349 plus tax. Renewal to my knowledge is 155, or 170 with tax. If you don't know much about the difference between passes I have a topic around here somewhere that has all those answers... The premiere really isnt worth the extra bucks unless you really like "free" 8 bottles of water, HHN ticket, free valet parking on non peak and non special event nights, and an extra 5% discount on food/10% on merch.

We had a Premiere 2-3 years ago and didn't renew because we knew we couldn't get back for awhile. It wasn't nearly as expensive, even just two years ago, so the extra discounts really added up for the whole family. Not this time! The preferred will be perfect. Thanks for finding the prices for me, tiny!

Good Morning from a warm and sunny UK

MH.........saw your weather on our news......how awful it looked and glad you and yours are safe.

Minniejack.....glad the tub is fun........and if you need any help with the picking up of towels, and of course the wine.......I`m available

Tinker-tude...........

Mac.........sorry about the loss of a loved one, and hope your son is ok too. Cars are replaceable.

I too am an elephant fan.............I have loads of them dotted around (despite the fact I hate clutter) Particularly the Tuskers range, so cute.

http://www.collectorsaddition.com/tuskers_elephants.htm

Not the biggest selection on that page, but the store I normally get them from, that has the whole selection..... their website is down. Beautiful intelligent animals


Well had a lovely week in Scotland with my mum. It`s so nice to spend quality time with her, as I only see her maybe 4 or 5 times a year. Weather was in the high 70`s every day and we had fun. Managed to see all the family and a few friends as well. Although I missed Tom and Kyle, it`s still a wrench to leave everyone in Scotland........had a few tears leaving, but good to see my boys again.

Bought some new bathroom scales this morning.........think they must be faulty I did eat out every night and most lunchtimes last week........but goodness me Back to salads!!!!!!

Trying to decide whether to do some gardening........or have a walk on the beach this afternoon. Tom`s on his days off........think the beach wins

Morning All

Tiny, the BF has 6 dogs I just have the 2: Minnie and Jack And sometimes I wish I didn't even have two. Hair, dirt, yuck. I'm starting to sound like DH--the ol' grump.

Tink Did you ever find your dog?

Don't you just hate those faulty new bathroom scales? IMHO companies automatically add 5# at the factory.
