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

[drag n' fly]

bring Perry along.


it will be good fun..........



it will be a great attention getter................

You know you are right, it will make for some fun pics...Perry goes to the dark side to check out Hp to see what all the fuss is about lolz

 

[drag n' fly]

Although we don't have any kids, your house sounds like ours - my DH is a lawyer who works out of a home office (which by the way is taken care of by a certain someone ), plus we have 2 dogs, 3 cats (well 1 cat and 2 kittens) and 6 ferrets ...


I vote for Perry to go along ... heck on one of our first trips, we took Pal Mickey to Universal

... by the way, I just noticed your location and wanted to say "Howdy neighbor" ... we're actually up in St. Albert

Yes it does sound just like ours. After the big oil bust in Calgary in 2009 dh started his own consulting business (P.Eng) and also started a family business. He does quite of bit of international consulting so he isnt in my fur buggin me too much
Wow St. Albert you are close. Howdy neighbour!! I think Perry shall come, it will provide for some interesting banter for sure eh!

the Bourne books rule............

public service announcement:

TURN THE OVEN OFF............

NOW you tell me?

Just wish this new set of renovators would get out of my house. Considering all of the work that we had done starting in January, we've had contractors at our house for 8 months--sigh. You guys will have to have the Jacuzzi party with the workers.

homie, youse knows we will go anywhere something is free.

hey, we traveled to canada to have a beer party in an unfinished basement at dawnna/circelli......


we'll be over for the jacuzzi party.

wait, is this inside the house structure or outside.
need to know the facts.

don't want to burn your new- almost -done- with- repairs- house- again by
leaving the jacuzzi on ........and then it burns something down..



oh and i will have the jacuzzi party with the workers if they are fully clothed.

 

[macraven]

i almost forgot my manners.



good morning homies, old and new....

its sunday and time to get your butts out of bed.




if i have to get up early on sundays, you do too.

 

[Melanie230]

I am awake...have been since 7am! Getting ready to take the kids outside to enjoy the neighborhood pool. Then off to run a couple of errands! Tomorrow is a workday for me.

 

[macraven]

yea, but it took you over 3 hours to get here......



maybe you had to drink a lot of coffee before posting.
sometimes i have to do that.........

 

[macraven]

i made a BIG decision yesterday.

i'm changing my colors to dark green.


keeping the same script thought, for now.




these type of decisions don't come easy.
it is easier for me to decide what to fix for dinner than the color scheme for the threads.....

 

[keishashadow]

know im going to miss the heat in a few month but has anybody else noticed their electric bills have skyrocketed this summer? My last one nearly tripled from the norm & we only have ceiling fans & BR AC units, cannot imagine what running central AC would cost.

 

[RAPstar]

Today has been such a relaxing day. Did nothing but lay about and watch movies on Netflix. Just what I needed.

 

[macraven]

we have the highest electrical rates in the nation.

damn.

the one thing to be first in..........


i spent most of the morning and lunch time with the parental units.

then i came home and did nothing productive.
all of a sudden, i remembered i didn't do the laundry yesterday.

so i got off the dis and started it.
only one more load to finish up and i am done with it.

until wednesday comes around.........

 

[coastermom]

just what everyone needs to do on a Sunday!!



Hey Mac ... I keep forgetting to ask - what are your dates for Disney and Universal again this year??

 

[bubba's mom]

Mornin all.....

know im going to miss the heat in a few month but has anybody else noticed their electric bills have skyrocketed this summer? My last one nearly tripled from the norm & we only have ceiling fans & BR AC units, cannot imagine what running central AC would cost.

Here's how June's electric bill went: they estimated us (too lazy to come read?) and my bill was $211. Now, I must tell ya, I've NEVER in the 17 yrs of living here, EVER had a bill OVER $200, let alone NEAR $200! I thought, "fine butholes....you bill me your $211...I'm going on vacation for 17 days...we'll see who has the last laugh!"

After vacation, got home to new "actual" bill.

$82 and change.



other than that, our central AC doesn't really cost much more a month than when we don't use it.

Wrapping up last couple days here at Wildwood Crest. Been visiting friends this weekend.... Always love to see them!

Gotta get ready for the beach...haveta pack the cooler...

Ciao!

i was going to add to this but when i reread it, she is talking about AC......


we had our furnace on during June........
i have nothing to add except, running the furnace costs us more than running the a/c.....
and never had a monthly utitlity bill that was only $82


have a great trip Brab.
be thinking of youse tomorrow...[/FONT]

Hello all

Haven`t been on for ages, or so it seems. I`ve had Shingles

I`m not a good patient at the best of times, but getting something so contagious 3 weeks before we go was just a nightmare. Luckily it has cleared up so I can fly, but now we just have to worry Kyle or Tom don`t contract Chicken Pox as they haven`t had it. We wouldn`t be able to fly if either contracted it now as it`s so close.......so fingers crossed.

Can`t believe how painful it was at times!!!

But all going well just over a week to go now Everthing all done and waiting to be packed. I`m a last minute packer, pack the morning we leave for the overnight stay at the airport before our flight. So getting very excited........when I`m not worrying

Hope everyone`s doing ok

 

[schumigirl]

WOW............

I`ve been TAGGED...........

Is it sad that really made me smile

Thank you Tag Fairy

carole, i know how you feel.
it is v.e.r.y. painful to have it and tolerate it...


mr mac had shingles about 5 years ago.

i would tell him when the shingle ring around his waist would connect to a full circle, the upper half would just fall off onto the ground.....
he was in no mood for my bad jokes..


none of us in the house caught chicken pox.
and we were around him all the time.
i even slept with him!

the worst is probably over now at this 3 week time period.
try not to get too much sun in the areas where you were affected.
ask your doc if you can sunscreen where the shingles were while you are in florida.

try baby oil on those areas to keep it from drying up before you leave.


i think you leave on the 16th, right?
now all you have to do is relax, pack in advance and watch court tv until it is time to go.

WOW............

I`ve been TAGGED...........

Thank you Tag Fairy

you had mummy dust........woohoo.......!!

 

[minniejack]

Major hugs to you.

Mac the hot tub is outside--we've spent a lot of time in there when we had to spend time at the ant/spider infested hotel rooms.

Don't tell DH, but I really do like getting in the stupid thing. I didn't want it, argued about it and it helps with the aches and pains. Sigh...why do spouses have to be right??

maybe that is why he wanted to get it.
