Something About Nothing ... #12

[schumigirl]

And done.


Weather is still glorious outside.......

Laundry all hanging on the line drying beautifully.........grocery shopping down, so time to chill out for the rest of the day......

Minion mayhem this am lol. There are certainly worse ways to start one’s day. Hanging laundry is right up there for me lol but i do love the way things smell afterwards.

Busy one on tap here. Having a dinner for DiL, way behind as usual on prep. Makes perfect sense to be here while I sip my first cuppa. Where’s the excitement in being prepared early? At my age you’ve got to build some excitement into your life lol.

Have a good weekend & be kind to each other

Yay, chuck is back I'm the same whenever I don't have a trip planned ...you know there's an easy solution for that

Glad blue kitty is on the mend...

Spent the night fighting the Amazon giftcard embedded page...every time I clicked on a thread it would come back...I finally did the system update on my phone that I've been ignoring for a few weeks and it seems to have gone away now...if you don't hear from me for awhile it's because my phone has been hacked

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend

Oh my, do you think a virus? Is it an apple product, would a hard reset work? That’s all i got, excuse me my techie ignorance is showing. Hope u figure it out soon

Yay, Schumi is on a minion streak.

We have cool weather, but no rain this weekend. Still below average April temps. But hey, I can wear my sunglasses, even if with a winter coat.

Road trip later, but early this morning, little one is volunteering at a local school to referee at our state Special Olympics games. Then she has to hustle to own game. Busy Saturday for us.

Quiet morning, and I am enjoying it.

Hope your spam went away, and your work goes fast today Tink.

Satisfying Saturday to all the homies.

Tea is calling. Good Morning, Good Afternoon.

Always good to turn a page so to speak Janet..........

I`ve heard some excitement is good for you......I`m a big believer in doing what`s good for you........hope dinner for DiL goes well......although I`m sure it will be a success..........

Morning Sans family Mac, Schumi, Lynne, Keisha, Tink, Agavegirl Charade, Houseofthrees, Pattyw, Monykalyn, Squirlz. I think I got everyone.






Happy birthday to Keisha DIL she is lucky to have a wonderful mom in law to make her a delicious birthday feast for sure





Welcome back Chuckers. For awhile there I thought we were going to have to find someone else to keep folks off the lawn...LOL...



Monyk so sorry to hear of Autumns passing. Pets are hard to stay goodbye to. Hope your daughter gets connected with a good Psychologist . I just went through dealing with my insurance making sure all the ducks were in a row before I went up to IU. Was an eye opener for sure.

Just heard on the news this morning that they are asking people not to eat Romaine Lettuce from Yuma Arizona because it is infected with Ebola. There are 31 people in hospital already. Scary stuff......we had Caesar salad from Sam’s last night.......how are people supposed to know where it’s from as the package does not say.




Hope everyone who has been sick is on the mend and feeling better



Charade glad to hear the kidney stone passed. It’s unbelievable the amount of pain those things can cause.

Schumi glad to hear your 24 hour bug is over......I had to look up your paracetamol tablets.....looks like they are comparable to our Tylenol (acetaminophen)......I remember you having mentioned them before.....so nice to hear you
are getting some sun and warmer temps

Tink great to hear you have been able to get your flights sorted for vacation......it’s always nice to tie up loose ends for your trip.



Looks like Universal was able to book up Adventura with the shout out to AP holders.

Agavegirl so good to hear your back is improving some.......having spinal fusion is something to give pause about for sure......hoping the less invasive procedures will give you comfort......and get you dancing again



Charade love the golden snitches. I bet they were the hit of the gathering.

Pattyw congratulations on your sons up upcoming engagement. Doesn’t hurt that she is a Potter lover too. Maybe a little house elf magic in that union.




Mac hope you’re cat bluer feels better soon and the tooth surgery goes well.

Having to much fun this morning with pics.....

 

[Lynne G]

Yay, a Robo report. Hope you are enjoying some good coffee and relaxing.



Yeah, ordering a lazy day. Watching some English football, cup of tea in my hand.

 

[Robo56]

Thanks to all for your prayers and good thoughts sent my way. I returned home from IU Wednesday afternoon. The GI specialist there took the stent out of my bile duct the local doc here put in. He then ballooned my duct so the Hulk size stones and all the other smaller stones would move out. He then put two new stents in place.

Will have to go back to Indianapolis Mother’s Day. Will have ERCP at IU to remove stents next morning. Praying this will take care of issue.

On positive note the hotel I stayed at was very nice and quiet and beautiful. The staff there are very kind and helpful.
It is “The Conrad”. I had not stayed in downtown Indianapolis for over 25 years and it really has many nice Hotels and restaurants.

Was able to enjoy a meal the night before procedure at St. Elmo’s while I was there. It is is right down the block from Ruth’s Chris steakhouse. It is a local steakhouse for many years in downtown Indianapolis. By far it was the best steak I have ever had.

My little sister K (Mac and Keisha met her last year at HHN) is an RN and she was with me. I’am so thankful for her. She is a such a blessing to me. She has been there as my angel watching over me though my many medical procedures over the years. I’am so very fortunate to have her in my life. My older sister is a Critical Care RN and was keeping up to date on things with us by phone. God has been good to me and I’am so thankful.

I always thought it was so cool that we all decided to be RN’s and we all graduated from the same Nursing School.

Looking forward to my vacation with grandchildren in May to Universal. Tied up some loose ends on that yesterday.

 

[macraven]

I was waiting for youse to spill the beans....lol


Read your first post and thought, maybe she is keeping quiet about her second surgery this past week

Came back and saw you shared with us

All your homie friends were concerned about you so glad you did more posting about your medical situation

Even with your surgery happening for mother’s day, it will be your best mother’s day gift

You will heal up and be able to do your annual trip with the grands to UO later in that month

Sending And prayers!

 

[Robo56]

Lynne have my coffee in my HHN cup from last year.........love the way the candles light up and the skull eyes turn red when the the hot coffee is poured in the mug........can’t tell I like this can you.........LOL.....

 

[Robo56]

Mac you are the best.......thank you for all your support.........I’am looking forward to your VIP tour in October and hanging out and meeting up with any fellow Sans family during HHN. I had blast last year at HHN.

Keep the HHN fires burning.....




LOL....Schumi’s man Mikey....

 

[schumigirl]

Nice to see you post Robo......and glad you are doing much better.........

We have that mug too! Love it......

Mac.....you got plans for today..........I feel like a lazy day........Tom is snoozing right now and I’m thinking I should go bring in washing as it’s all dry now.......

And he’s mentioning Tequila.........oh dear..........

Happy Saturday all!!

Glorious morning here- bright sunshine and 55 today- 60 tomorrow. Thank you mother Nature for finally sending spring to Buffalo!!

Hello Chuckers!

Tink- Hope work goes good this weekend!

Schumi- love all the minions!

Robo- glad you're home!!- always love your picture postings! Love the HHN mug! I may not even need coffee in that mug- it would scare me awake! Think I should get one this year!

Lynne- great kitty pictures!

Mac- glad Ms Blue is on the mend and into food and mischief!

Speaking of kitty and mischief, we were abruptly awakened this morning by a loud CRASH! One (or more) of the little darlings knocked one of my favorite plant arrangements off of my kitchen shelf. Broke into a million pieces! I even had it on a higher shelf- but they're good jumpers!! They all looked innocent!

 

[macraven]

Cats and kids are so much the same when they get busy and into things

Broken dishes, glassware, flower vases, nonreplacable heirlooms, etc.

Have had it all happen

Kids used to blame the cats when things happened
Did not buy that story .....

But once all the boys moved out, dishes and such still were crashing to the floor

It was the cats
Looking back, Im sure it always was the cats

Patty.....we have so many HHN mugs from over the years it’s scary!! We do like the shot glasses every year too........plenty of souvenirs to fill up kitchen cabinets.........

I do love the mugs though!

Glad your weather is picking up......we are warm but not boiling hot......so sitting in garden room where sun is streaming in........

Hope yours holds on for a while too..........

 

[macraven]

Thank you Robbie
Bottom line is friends help each other
And I enjoy sharing if it helps a person

I say this each time you share your hhn pics....

I them and thank you for sharing them with us!

We have grown and added newbies to the sans
Many have not seen your pictures you posted last year of hhn

 

[pattyw]

Having a dinner for DiL,

Happy Birthday to DIL! Have a great dinner!

Glad your weather is picking up......we are warm but not boiling hot......so sitting in garden room where sun is streaming in........

Yep- nice weather makes your mood so much better! And I love to hang out my clothes to dry! Love that smell!

Mac- true on the loss of breakables! Anything we value goes into the curio cabinet. And yes- I always say that I've lost more stuff because of the cats rather than my boys! I guess at the end of the day the joy the cats bring to us is greater than the items we've lost!

 

[Lynne G]

Why we did not keep breakable things on our tables. Labs’ tails swished all off routinely. Does it count I had to have stitches in my nose when I tripped over the dog and smashed into the curio cabinet?

Yeah, dogs and kids did get into stuff they should not.

Older one had his car serviced, hope he comes home soon

I’ve never had an animal to blame breakages on.....wish I had at times.......

I too love the aroma of freshly washed and dried on the line clothes and bedding.......

Just been up to make our bed up......DH helps as it’s a huge bed......and I’m quite short.......and the fresh smell was lovely......not that it usually smells bad........ already looking forward to climbing in tonight........

I see some form of alcohol on the horizon tonight.......just heard DH go into what we affectionately call the wine cellar.......it’s nothing like a wine cellar in reality, it’s a big walk in cupboard where we store the wines........so he’s on the mooch already..........

Well, it is Saturday I suppose.......and it’s after 5

 

[pattyw]

Sure does count! Those tripping injuries can be brutal! DS tripped over the cat a couple of years ago and broke a toe!

Well, it is Saturday I suppose.......and it’s after 5

Only 12:30 pm here but I'm ready to join in! From coffee to wine?? Why not?

At the minute we are negotiating whether to have red wine.......or make Dark and Stormy cocktails........

Dark Myers Rum or Mount Gay........Ginger Beer and Lime.........had one in StrongWater Tavern.......boy it was strong..........

Negotiations continue..........trying to work out what snacks we have tonight and what will go best........

Cocktails slightly edging in front at the moment.........although means one of us has to drive into village to get ginger beer.........lol.......
