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

[macraven]

work suxs but i need an attitude adjustment.
have to work next week also.


the snow started here around 3:30 today, right when i pulled into the driveway.



i turned on cnn news and they had my hometown on the map talking about this snow storm.



should i be thrilled or what............


i guess Mr Mad and keisha are enjoying nice warm weather today and weekend.

It was near 70 the last couple of days and was early today. Then the cold front rolled it and it's currently 39. We had big thunderstorms come through and then all hell broke loose towards the east with all the tornados and whatnot. Hope everyone east of us got through all that unscathed.

southern indiana was hit earlier today.
3 perished in the tornado that hit there.


yea, the one thing i remember clearly are the storms down where you live.
it never bothered me, i loved seeing the lightning in the sky when those big storms would roll through.

i know.
i'm a sicky.

have you found anyone that has a Cosco near them?

have you thought of making a new thread and asking if anyone near your area has that store nearby?

i have a brother in honolulu that shops at cosco all the time.
i don't know if they have the UO tickets.

i can call him and ask him to check and pick them up for me.
he will be back in the states sometime in july.
i can take care of those transactions for you if you run dry on trying to secure them.

i really don't know if the cosco in honolulu has much on uo tickets.
it's not like they could use them very easily over there unless they went to the mainland and did hollywood uo.

but, if i can help, i will.

it finally stopped snowing here.
heard on the tv that milwaukee is being hit hard.
that is about a 35 mile drive north of me.


marcie is about another hour north of that from me and wondering when she will check in with her snowfall.


i bet she has a snow blower.

It's 72 here now and we're under a tornado watch for most of the night, I think we're getting the same weather as mh did earlier as it's supposed to be down in the 30's tomorrow.

Probably gonna be a sleepless night...

I do! And unfortunately have to figure out how to use it since I sent my son off to visit Purdue with dad for a long weekend (he flew down last night) and I'm the only one home to face the snow. They're down in Indiana though and were touring the campus today in serious hail, winds and storms, but at least avoided the tornadoes.

So far the snow hasn't been that bad though from what I can tell. We had a snow day on Wednesday (first of the school year) after getting around 4" of snow, then a combination of sleet, hail, freezing rain, and rain on top of it all. THAT was fun to shovel (not). As soon as I can get everything shoveled and the house straightened up in the morning I'm heading down to Chicago (seems like I spend half my life there these days!) to meet up with my husband and my kiddo, hang out for the night and head back home! Hope the weather improves!

marcie, sheyboygan has a lot of snow but don't think you will be near there.
it's about over an hour north of milwaukee.

the toll and highways to chgo will be cleared later tonight.

nice thing about that city, the sure do get the main drags cleared up asap.

now if you could have waited to wednesday to come down to the city, you would love the weather.

on the 10 news, it stated chitown will hit upper 50's mid week.

bye bye snow.....

 

[marciemi]

Well, I'll be driving right through Sheboygan tomorrow so hope it stops snowing by then! It was 68 and sunny in Indy a couple days ago - I'd gladly take that!

Hey, homies.....who on the east coast is a Costco member that could pick me up a couple of the 3 day park to park passes for Universal? I would send the money to you before you picked them up.

Let me know! Thanks!

Are they that much cheaper than buying them directly through Universal??? Or how about buying them from Undercover Tourist??

When are you going??

The difference is these don't expire 14 days after first use. You get 3 days to use through 2015. I'm thinking of upgrading my old 7 day $99 tickets to an AP so I can get a discount at the RPR and FOTL passes. My brother, SIL, Dana and myself are going over to UO so mom and dad can get some quality alone time with the grandkids. *cough* We are going to be there the night of October 24th Dana's BD) and all day the 25th. My whole family is going to the Motherland for a week starting the 20th for my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary celebration.

Just been watching the news and they are showing all the places affected by tornado`s.....just awful to see.

Vicki, hope you got a good nights sleep

This is going to sound ridiculous to all of you......but.......I always thought Sheboygan was a made up place ................don`t ask why......I don`t know. Heard it mentioned in a movie once I think. Oops!

Macraven.....not a sickie at all. We are fanatical about watching lightning when we are in Orlando.......we could stand for hours watching it as we get nothing like the shows over there. Glad you`re losing the snow soon

Hope everyone has a good weekend

 

[macraven]

i should be cleaning this dump that i live in but here i am, on the dis.....

 

[ky07]

Stopping by to say hi and so glad that all this ruff weather is over

Just FYI there's also a Cheboygan (pronounced the same way) in northern Michigan. We used to go up to a cabin near there all the time when I was growing up so I was used to that one. When we moved to WI and saw Sheboygan instead, I felt like "Hey, you spelled it wrong!"

Did make it down to Chicago here without an issue other than it was apparently "drive stupidly in Sheboygan" day. Add in construction (new evidently since last weekend) and snow and it was a bit frustrating. But hanging in Schaumburg after a nice meal at Bakers Square! Enjoy your weekend everyone!

Hi all

Luckily, all the tornados were north of our area and we only had a few thunderstorms last night. I was actually able to get a good nights sleep.

I have the next few days off, maybe I can get my house cleaned as it has suffered neglect during my battle with the flu.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend

 

[macraven]

tink, i have no excuse why my house is a dump now.

i just didn't want to put forth the time and effort to do anything .



you have an excuse, you were ill.
glad you are feeling better.


hey KY.
good you survived that bad storm.


marcie.
mr mac was in sheboygan today skiing.
back he goes tomorrow there.

we do not have the same interests obviously.





wait...
you're in schaumburg at the mall on a saturday evening.
that is nuts.
so many people and cars there at that time period.


i'd rather take another snow storm than be in schaumburg on a saturday night.

 

[marciemi]

Note I did NOT say I was at the mall. We went to Bakers Square up in Palatine then were hanging at our hotel in Schaumburg. Also not a mall fan but we will go to Cheesecake Factory there tomorrow right at 10 when they open!
