Something About Nothing.......part 2 (please join us)

[RVGal]

Where's Mac? Barb left the light on and the doors unlocked all night. I'm not cleaning up the dog poop. I get enough of that from Daniel, thank you.

I think Janet decided to share her back problems with me. Mine hasn't bothered me in months, but it's giving me fits this morning.

My email box had 51 messages this morning. Notifications from WEDNESDAY's posts. I am slowly getting yesterday's now in batches. Fun.

My niece drove up with a friend of hers yesterday afternoon and they are staying with Carol for the weekend. I guess I'll have to play hostess at some point and go do some tourist stuff with them. Melanie always wants to go to Babyland General. Why? I don't know. Is seeing a babydoll born from a cabbage head really that much fun? Again?

 

[bubba's mom]

Cat is out. Lights are off. Mac lock up.

Nite!

Holy crap! Mac didn't lock up! Quick....count noses and make sure nobody robbed the place last nite.... We got everything?

Mornin folks...I'm off today and will probably goof off most of the day.

Glad you have off....a weekday is a good day to goof off..... (then again, isn't any day )

Hey, it's cold again!? It's in the 40's! Any colder and I'll have to look for that darn coat.

....and, I'm sorry...but I just don't share all your excitement on being "Friday" I work Saturdays, so, Fridays are like your Thursdays for me (But, I'm happy for you all!)

Good Morning

Mornin' yerself Miss Numbers

morning all - Happy Friday!!!

todd - have a great day off - it is supposed to snow at some point today here.... not much but I am sure just enough to make Jim's commute home a nightmare - PADOT is so reliable for road clearing - NOT!!!

So finally after weeks and weeks of waiting and playing with our dates we book southwest for our trip April/May. Non stop flights to and from (PHL-MCO), awesome times and not TOO bad a price of 79pp each way. with the 5 of us it came to $895.00

Last night DH gets an email from Airtran - same fight days, little difference in times for 55pp each way - savings of $230.00 for us I have the Web Only fare so there is no way in heck they would refund us, right? Just give a credit if we were to cancel?

This plea is to the DING lords.....PLEASE, PLEASE, DING me for Orlando very soon at your wonderful 49-58 rate???? Did I say please??

got to run for a bit
bean #1 in school already and #2 is grumbling about having to wake up - she needs to be in by 8:45.....

be back later

No wonder YOU are so happy this morning!!! AIR for the Bean family PLEASE DING TRACIE! PLEASE DING TRACIE! PLEASE DING TRACIE!



I think you are only going to get maybe an inch of snow/slushy, messy mix.... I think we are supposed to get an inch...or a little more (but not more than 3)....I'll take that over the alternative.... I have a funny feeling next winter we are gonna get slammed

morning!
great pics! tricia - i believe there is an alien in the bath with you DSs (see little green man floating face down )

(i didn't even notice!)

hoping for some pics of AKV/Lodge


barb - thanx, ma will be 78 (has been taking muscle relaxants as part of weekly regimen of pills for years-loosy goosey she is). No interest in trip planning (or should i say whittling down the final tab) @ this point; not even sure if she can be left alone until the dust settles...probably; just in a funk i suppose.

Why are you waitin' on AKL? Do you want to buy there or just stay??

Ma isn't too old....78 is the new 58! I'm sure this is just a faze for her....once she is settled back into a rut-tine, she will gain her strength back and be in much better shape....pump her full of vitamins and eat healthy...she'll be back to being a pain in yer butt in no time!

That would be Baby Bop. There was a terrible storm and I'm afraid the cast of Barney did not survive.

I remember Bop

Good Morning homies

Mornin' yerself!

thanx barb, ps you're ticker (i think-seeing Xs marking the spot...arrrrgh) has gone mia

doubtful on AKV unless DH "falls in lust" if we're able to score a room there in October; disposable income is spoken for this year on our grand tours (the ones we were trying to sneak in before ma's health turned south) i'm afraid...may have to go out on a limb & finance CR if it starts selling before next year

tricia - sorry i put the whammy on your back, whip out a heating pad, did wonders for me yesterday & plan on it again today...least it keeps u warm! ps i watched more barney than any peep alive, certainly not by choice...keep threatening to make youngest DS sit thru the show @ U to pay him back, take pics & post them on youtube

 

[bubba's mom]

Where's Mac? Barb left the light on and the doors unlocked all night. I'm not cleaning up the dog poop. I get enough of that from Daniel, thank you.

Uh... no I didn't. I turned the lights out (heck, it was almost 1am MY time when I went to bed!) I left the door unlocked cuz she wasn't home yet.....and her bed doesn't look slept in either Mac stayed out all nite..... prolly spent the night with some dude and got lucky

And....Daniel poops "dog poop"?

I think Janet decided to share her back problems with me. Mine hasn't bothered me in months, but it's giving me fits this morning.

My email box had 51 messages this morning. Notifications from WEDNESDAY's posts. I am slowly getting yesterday's now in batches. Fun.

I know...I had a TON of emails this morning too.... got to delete a lot of them tho

I hope your back doesn't get any worse.... maybe some muscle relaxers and a "coke"?

My niece drove up with a friend of hers yesterday afternoon and they are staying with Carol for the weekend. I guess I'll have to play hostess at some point and go do some tourist stuff with them. Melanie always wants to go to Babyland General. Why? I don't know. Is seeing a babydoll born from a cabbage head really that much fun? Again?

IF you go to the "baby hospital" and IF you remember....ask them a question for me...would ya? How much is an original 'handmade' Cabbage Patch doll worth? And, by "orginial handmade" I mean one that Carol Buffington made (from her own mind, heart and hand) and then some dude stole the pattern from her and sold it to Coleco (I don't think she 'sold' it, but, I could be wrong).... Just wonderin' cuz i have one of these dolls. Here's the background:

I got mine a year or two before the big brew ha-ha over them that 1 Christmas. My grandmother's cousin had a friend in GA who made them. (It was a gift from Grandmom) She looks like a real babydoll (cloth face, not plastic), a ton of yellow-blonde yarn hair and came with a cute dress, diaper and a birth certificate..but I was able to name her...she didn't come with a name (come to think of it, didn't the dolls come with "adoption papers"? Mine came with birth certificate)..... Oh, and Carol signed and dated and gave her a "number" on the doll's butt So, I think I have a doll worth some money, but they are SO rare and few, I have no idea (The same Christmas, my (ex) sister got one too....her's was all soft (face and all), came with birth cert., signed, and her's had tons of reddish brown yarn for hair (cuz she's a redhead) and freckles on her face)

Like I said, IF you go, IF you remember and IF you do....I don't think anyone there would know....altho, they MAY know who I can ask! Thanks Oh...and have a GRAND ole time

 

[bubba's mom]

thanx barb, ps you're ticker (i think-seeing Xs marking the spot...arrrrgh) has gone mia

re: ticker..... yeah...apparently they exceeded their bandwith again... Hope it's fixed soon....or else, how am I gonna know how many DAYS till I can arrange excursions?

..may have to go out on a limb & finance CR if it starts selling before next year

ps i watched more barney than any peep alive, certainly not by choice...keep threatening to make youngest DS sit thru the show @ U to pay him back, take pics & post them on youtube

 

[AlexandNessa]

Oh, boo-hoo-who. Who the heck is complaining about 40 degrees? That's a friggin sauna here!

Barb, are you tan yet?

Janet, glad your mom had nothing broken!

Rosemarie, prayers for your dad.

Tricia, your bathtub pics brought back some memories of tub pics that I tried to hide from past boyfriends .... at least yours were censored. Very cute, as usual!

Penny, the CB is better entertainment than Jerry Springer. Did I ever tell you about the time I got ripped a new one for saying no to being in a friend's wedding? Did you know that made me THE ... MOST .... SELFISH .... PERSON..... EVER!!!!!!!!!

Tracie, I thought you booked airfare already, no? Well, if you didn't, mummy dust for cheap fares for you!!!

What else is going on?

xx

Mmm, what do you like your pierogis stuffed with? I like mine boiled, then slightly burnt and stuffed with cheese and onions and loaded with sour cream. Yum!

 

[bubba's mom]

I agree....I WISH it was 40

Barb, are you tan yet?

[bubba's mom]

Don't worry....it usually goes down for a couple/few days...never seen it gone more than a week....it'll be back (it's just GOTTA be!)

 

[marciemi]

Hi Guys! Sorry - I haven't even had a chance to read, let alone post! Heading out now to go skiing with DS12 and head to Madison for the Math competition tomorrow. Won't have internet, so I guess I won't see you peeps until tomorrow night!

You can amuse yourself with birthday wishes if you want! Matt turns 16 on Sunday and DH (Royce) turns, well - a lot more than 16, tomorrow!

Have a great weekend all!

 

[RVGal]

Uh... no I didn't. I turned the lights out (heck, it was almost 1am MY time when I went to bed!) I left the door unlocked cuz she wasn't home yet.....and her bed doesn't look slept in either Mac stayed out all nite..... prolly spent the night with some dude and got lucky

And....Daniel poops "dog poop"?

Okay, you turned the lights out... but Mac still didn't come and tuck us in and lock the doors!

And poop is poop. I'm not cleaning any of it up around here 'cause I get enough at home. Yes, Daniel had another finger painting in the poop moment last night. Why, oh WHY, is it so fascinating to him? Why?

IF you go to the "baby hospital" and IF you remember....ask them a question for me...would ya? How much is an original 'handmade' Cabbage Patch doll worth? And, by "orginial handmade" I mean one that Carol Buffington made (from her own mind, heart and hand) and then some dude stole the pattern from her and sold it to Coleco (I don't think she 'sold' it, but, I could be wrong)....

I can answer you now without asking. Nobody, but NOBODY, acknowledges any Cabbage Patch Kid prior to Xavier Roberts incorporating his Original Appalachian Artworks, which was 1978.

GOOD FRIDAY MORNING!

Hey, it's cold again!? It's in the 40's! Any colder and I'll have to look for that darn coat. But at least it's FRIDAY!

flog him Barb!!!

 

[tlinus]

Which one? Now I've gotta go look for you over there, don't I?

That is a VERY scary place......and I would have been banned eons ago if I got wrapped up in that much small mindedness sometimes.

Please DING Tracie!

Thank you - Thank you - they just did PHL to Jacksonville and MCO ones for Pittsburgh.....maybe over the weekend

That would be Baby Bop. There was a terrible storm and I'm afraid the cast of Barney did not survive.

BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA - I remember Barney - oh wait - its still on Sprout which Frank would watch 24/7 if you let him

Good Morning homies

Morning Lawrence

Where's Mac? Barb left the light on and the doors unlocked all night. I'm not cleaning up the dog poop. I get enough of that from Daniel, thank you.

you will never lose "the poop lady" title - and where is miss mac?

I think Janet decided to share her back problems with me. Mine hasn't bothered me in months, but it's giving me fits this morning.

Hope its feeling better soon - use the heating pad - or get those thermacare thingys if you need to be mobile.....

[tlinus]

Oh, boo-hoo-who. Who the heck is complaining about 40 degrees? That's a friggin sauna here!

heck, I would even take 30-35 degrees right now

I told Barb he gets a flogging for that

Barb, are you tan yet?

Yea - spill the story you promised......I'm reminding ya!!!

Penny, the CB is better entertainment than Jerry Springer. Did I ever tell you about the time I got ripped a new one for saying no to being in a friend's wedding? Did you know that made me THE ... MOST .... SELFISH .... PERSON..... EVER!!!!!!!!!

Jerry Springer
I rarely even go there - to much of a sense of "my opinion is THE ONLY opinion" - blech......don't waste my energy anymore

Tracie, I thought you booked airfare already, no? Well, if you didn't, mummy dust for cheap fares for you!!!

Yes, we got 79 pp each way on Southwest the other night. Confirmed, paid for, etc. We got an email from AirTran about a sale and last night the fare for the same dates was 55pp each way. Well this morning its up to 69pp each way on AirTran and when you add the 10.00 per person for seat selection it comes to what I already have........although a DING! from Southwest is always nice to save some moolah! Also got my confirm from the towncar service today -

Hi Guys! Sorry - I haven't even had a chance to read, let alone post! Heading out now to go skiing with DS12 and head to Madison for the Math competition tomorrow. Won't have internet, so I guess I won't see you peeps until tomorrow night!

You can amuse yourself with birthday wishes if you want! Matt turns 16 on Sunday and DH (Royce) turns, well - a lot more than 16, tomorrow!

Have a great weekend all!

Have a great time Marcie!!

Happy Birthday to Royce and Matt

 

[loribell]

Congrats Penny on 2000 !!

Lori..pics this weekend I promise!

I'll be looking for them.

And one more good luck wish for your bro!

Dunno how ya do it (like Janet) I LIVE for vacation....plunk money away daily, weekly and been making those cruise payments every month.....I have to have something in the works.... actually while ON vacation, we are usually planning the next years

I am always have one in the works too. I have to know I am getting away.

any/every day you wake up is a "good" day

So true! Much better than the alternative.

Don't be mad at yourself or feel guilty. Take those rare moments and cherish them.... I do the same with Bubba or DH or even my kitty (when she was still with us).... Whatever it was you was gonna do, will still be there when you are ready to get to it....snuggle with Savvy....one of the 'simple pleasures' in life.

Amen!

good thinkin' sista!

ya know...this is my thoughts: it could very well be improved because they would have to 'program' a 'new sequence' into it... OR, it's so old, it's jerky and doesn't move 'smoothly' anymore Guess we'll have to wait and find out.....

I sure hope it is better. I stopped riding BTTF years ago because it was so rough. I never even let Ally ride it. To bad cause I really did like it.

I'm okay except for the email notifications dropping out! I think our spring soccer practice starts in mid-March WHY do they 'rush' this?? Why not early April? I don't wanna sit outside and freeze again!

We can still have nasty days that are too cold to be sitting out in in March. I can't imagine doing it up there.

yeah...that would never happen at Universal!

Oh yeah? I bet it could happen to me.

 

[keishashadow]

Mmm, what do you like your pierogis stuffed with? I like mine boiled, then slightly burnt and stuffed with cheese and onions and loaded with sour cream. Yum!

drool, i skip the sour cream (try to avoid bringing it into the house, tempts me to make cheesecake - double drool)
ever have a renogie (deep fried pierogi) , we like ravioli the same way...assume our arteries are a solid mass of lard...nothing a shot or too of russian vodka won't roto-root!
