Easy dinner tonight for me

Leftovers


Anyone here watch Fear the Dead?

 

[tink1957]

Thanks for the reminder mac, I forgot it was on tonight

I made chili for dinner...it's strange not to have someone to share it with since Trey left ..Danielle doesn't like it at all. Good thing is I have enough leftovers for lunch for a few days or I could freeze it for later.

Good news is we got our magic bands now it feels closer...we'll be there in less than 3 weeks!

Our friend came to do the yard today and unfortunately he ran over a yellow jackets nest while mowing and got stung about 18 times. .poor guy.

Almost time to watch FTWD...have a good night all

Day #1 on a roll of 90 degree days. DiL & I agreed felt hotter than trip to FL two weeks ago. humid, we lasted three hours at Labor Day Fest then retreated to an AC bar for wings & brews.

Ima land-locked beach bum. Spent a few years growing up in St Pete’s area.

Moved the trip up a day to 28th, only thing to do is find somewhere to stay lol. By the time the flight gets in, we get luggage & car will be near midnight. Have WL booked for 29th. Not sure where to book a night at this point. The mr kindly requests i get something on paper so we don’t have to sleep in the car.

Oh my! Hope he's ok! Very scary!

Quiet night here- still doing wash and cleaning! More tomorrow- and some yard work! Grateful for the holiday tomorrow!

Have a great night all!

Good evening. I feel like I have wasted the day. I didn’t get up until after 11:00 today. I guess I really needed sleep. After lunch B and I drove back to Roanoke. I made the mistake of not taking a really good look at her pictures yesterday. The ballet pictures were shot against a white background. With the combination of the white background, B’s fair skin and the flash, she looks like she is disappearing into the background. I took the pictures back to see if they could correct them, but what we really need is to reshoot the picture. They couldn’t do it today becasue they were really busy, so we will be going back next week.

Oops, I hit “post reply instead of “insert quotes”.

It's why I like part time work so much-I don't mind working, but no weekends and a day off (or 2) during week is so nice. Although lately-with travel schedule I'm working FT most weeks to take full weeks off. Could be worse

I love working part time hours, but miss getting full time pay. I might search for a full time job after B goes to college.

While i’m On a rant: Why, oh why, is pumpkin whatevers still on everyone’s collective tongues?

It’s just started and I’m already tired of it.

Funny thing is Lynne, I can`t swim a stroke...….well I used to be able to, but I lost the confidence to do it and now just can`t …….but I do love to be in the water where I can touch the bottom with my feet..

I can’t swim either. I’m nit quite phobic, but I really don’t like water. I used to go to the pool all the time when I was a kid. One day I was trying to do a flip underwater and one of my “friends” thought it would be funny to push my head down. It really frightened me, and I’ve been nervous around water ever since.

Our friend came to do the yard today and unfortunately he ran over a yellow jackets nest while mowing and got stung about 18 times. .poor guy.

I hope he is okay.

No plans for tomorrow’s holiday. I wil probably do laundry and pay bills.

Hi Charade! Don't feel bad about sleeping in- we all need to get some extra rest sometimes! And there's a holiday tomorrow so we get a bonus weekend day!

You and I have very exciting days planned tomorrow- but the stuff needs to get done!

Watching Fear the dead now

My magic band arrived yesterday/Saturday

 

[Monykalyn]

Magic bands! Yep know the trip is getting closer. Very weird for me to be planning trip to Orlando and NOT take my magic band...Although I am taking my NE tickets with the days left on them just in case we pop over for a day of Food and wine...

Day of cleaning, sheets changed, got the boy's room cleaned out and his new queen bed in (he had a loft bed with twin mattress), and tending to dog. He can't walk anymore, and stopped eating completely. The pet hospice people aren't back in town until Tuesday.

Was going to grill out today, decided to be lazy instead as grilling would have required a trip to store. Found a roast in freezer and popped it into crockpot along with a bunch of seasonings and a very generous splash of red wine. With mashed potato and steamed veggie medley dinner was easy. Roast was good-family raved it was 'best ever'-of course I don't follow a recipe and probably won't be able to duplicate it!!
Just got chocolate chip cookie bars out of oven. Was craving a sweet...

7 fire engines just went screaming by outer road in past 10 minutes-one right after the other. Can't smell smoke and they didn't turn into our street...hope whatever is going on it comes out ok.

Anyone here watch Fear the Dead?

I will catch up, but I had to read recaps of each episode this season to understand what was going on with the ridiculous time jumps, then side stories! Part of my problem is I just haven't been paying real close attention as it hasn't interested me much anymore.

Moved the trip up a day to 28th, only thing to do is find somewhere to stay lol.

Do you get Mousesavers newsletters? some really great deals there lately!

Think I am gonna go climb in bed and read...

 

[macraven]

Monyk, hope your doggy will take water at least

Maybe tomorrow will be a better day for him

I only watch Fear the dead as I keep hoping it will get better

I started watching it as a filler of time when walking dead was in their off season

Fear is like a train wreck
I can’t stop watching ...


Hope all the homies here have had a great weekend so far and a fun Labor Day tomorrow

Believe me charade I can mess up an entire day without even trying

You just had a different way of judging the time you needed for a day


Stick with me and I will show you how a person really messes up a 24 hour period

It is one of my many talents lol

 

[macraven]

Who else got their magic bands already?


I will
Keep mine in my sock
Drawer

In case I panic and can’t remember where I put them
Push me
In the direction to find theM

 

[Charade67]

It’s a holiday and I’m awake before 7:00. Why? It seems the person who actually had to be up early didn’t bother filling that cat’s food bowl. Ugh! I’m going to try to get back to sleep. See y’all later.

 

[tink1957]

Me too Charade! Woke up at 6 and gave up trying to get back to sleep.

I fell asleep on the couch while watching rerun Ftwd and woke up when talking dead was on so I had to watch the new episode afterwards. In my defense I only slept 4 hours the night before due to my sister in law calling me at 10 and talking until 12:30...that woman loves to talk.

Lawn guy was ok according to Danielle, I was still at work when it happened. Luckily I had bought sting relief stuff the day before and she gave him some benadryl too. I would have been done for the day but he worked another hour after that...he did leave earlier than expected probably because the benadryl kicked in.

Mac...I got 2 sets of magic bands and we're only there for 2 nights on 2 separate reservations. I can wear a different color each day.

Guess I'll go make coffee now

Hope everyone has a fantastic day

Woot+ last day off until the work and school routine fires up.

Sun is out, older one is up, but not little one.

Realized the guys kept the bathrooms clean, but used every roll of t paper. Another errand to run today, including picking up bread, that was not restocked either. Hmm, seems like the list the kids had yesterday was just for stuff to snack on.

So, time for tea, get the fry pan out, and late breakfast. I have no problems being lazy on a bonus day off.

MonyK, hugs, good thoughts for the dog. Never easy, more hugs for whole family.

 

[ckmiles]

Good Morning!

I've been stuck in meetings all last week at work- so things have been a little crazy. I've been here in spirit thinking of all of you.

Its a hot one here today and tomorrow- Im off to the pool. I took tomorrow off as well because- well because I can. And Ill probably spend tomorrow at the pool too because its going to be hot all week.

Hoping everyone has a great day!

Cindy

 

[Monykalyn]

Yes another early riser. but I did go to bed fairly early last night-think I was asleep by 10. Son went to friends house for a bit, was going to spend the night, but started coughing so much he texted me to come home. Said his chest hurt with coughing and he wanted sleep in own bed. Can hear him coughing downstairs right now.

Doggy hanging in there. He perks up every now and then, but I do think he is getting to the "not comfortable anymore" part. Thanks for the wishes and hugs. Fear this week is going to be rough one, but I can't watch him suffer. will see what the pet hospice Dr has to offer tomorrow.

Fear is like a train wreck
I can’t stop watching ...

yeah it is why I keep DVRing it, had so much potential.

but used every roll of t paper.

boys! yeah i have errands to do today too. Few groceries, clean our club building to get ready for our clubs Wine tasting event fundraiser tomorrow. Shouldn't take long.
Thinking bolognese tonight. Won't have much time to cook this week so might as well cook today. Another hot and humid day today.

Finally traded in the accommodation certificate-staying at Mariott Harbour Lake. Just can't justify last minute prices to stay onsite. Plus I know my teen will definitely appreciate having her own room/bed where she can sleep til noon if she wants.

Time for more coffee.

 

[tink1957]

monyk...sorry about your dog. We went through this with our pup Chewy a few years ago and it's not easy. All you can do is show them love and support until the end and you already have that covered.
