Something About Nothing ... #12

[macraven]

This will be a 5 day work week for many

We need to create more holidays so there are more 3 day weekends

Too bad I’m retired and can’t takw advantage of the shorter work week

Just saying....

So tlinus fill me in again on your darkside park dates

My brain at this time of the morning is more like a Seive
I think it would be fun to
See you at the drkside


And Schumi How many more sleep for you?&

 

[schumigirl]

tlinus……..well...…..2 sleeps now...…..

I love your hoodie and flip flops...….lol...….we are much cooler here now....heating is on, but I still like the windows open....apparently that's wasteful one of my friends won`t have her windows open if heating is on......I still like the house aired a little...….and I refuse to wear a jumper or sweater......but won`t be cold......lol.....I`m odd!!!

Bobbie, glad Liv`s party went well...…...it`s a lovely age to be!!!

yes mac 2 sleeps...…...although we don't fly till Thursday......our vacation starts Wednesday morning...….. and yep, being retired is much better than a shorter working week!!!!


Waxing appointment over again...….thank goodness!!! I never get used to it, strangely my physiotherapist tells me I have a high pain tolerance...….weird.

Grey and miserable day today and quite cool...…..off out to do some more last minute things this afternoon.....including all the rest of this months birthdays and anniversaries...……

Have a great Monday...……………...

And one of my closest friends sent me this earlier today...………

Yep, not as steady a heavier rain that lasted all day yesterday, but another rainy day. Sun, where are ya? Sniff, sunglasses have not been used for days.

Very dark and not quite light rain falling commute on wet and all size puddles streets. Parts of the shore are flooded, roads are flooded around me too, and everything is soggy wet. And, we're not done with the rain, as thunderstorms are expected every day this week, though the temperature bounces back to the mid 80's, from a barely 76 expected today. Guess that means a more humidity before the storms week. Lastly, even though it looks like the hurricane is sufficiently enough South of us to do any significantly more rain, but those outer bands may still extend far enough North, thus most likely, we'll have a rainy end of the week, thanks to the hurricane.

Sending good thoughts to those in the hurricane's path, particularly those along the coast. Stay safe and dry.

Schumi, 2 more sleeps! Woot! Woot! So close. Glad you are bopping around, and staying warm. I hear ya, while I wore flip flops due to the rain, I also had a jacket on. Just cool out. No heat, but the house felt cool this morning.

Bobbie, glad to hear Liv had a nice party, got some nice gifts, and gets a yummy dinner she selected.

With that I need tea, apparently, the AC cranks regardless of the weather. Smart, I brought my bigger cup for tea. Tea is ready, so off I go, hope all the homies find a marvelous Monday in store for them, and hope Patty got home safely last night.

And hey, where's Robbie with a post about his trip? Info on that cruise and land visit would be nice.

Wendy, Robo, Mac and all other homies, well wishes sent. Hope all you homies are feeling better, stronger, and not in pain.

 

[schumigirl]

Doesn't sound the best weather Lynne...….but not long till you`re back in Orlando too!!!!

Yep, heating did make the house feel cosy…...didn't take long and we have the Aga being put on again tomorrow...…..don`t really use it in the summer as it is so hot!!! But time to switch it back on...….

Keep warm and dry!!! Failing that...….drink lots of coffee!!!

[Robo56]

[macraven]

Robbie is here and she is always so good to put up all holiday greetings

(And includes our walking wounded)
What a nice homie she is!

Happy new year Lynne

 

[macraven]

So Schumi
Is today packing day?

Are the cases all packed now?

 

[schumigirl]

Lol........

Haven’t brought the cases out yet......they are in one of the spare rooms though, didn’t put them up in attic after last trips......

Will do it tomorrow night........you know me, last minute packer.........

 

[Lynne G]

Thanks Robo and Mac. Going to see DM soon. At least they come to her place, rather than having to take her there. Then food coma for dinner.

For all the homes, Happy New Year! May all enjoy a blessed and fruitful one.

Eh, isn't Schumi a last minute packer? Know she didn't put the luggage in a closet, so that luggage should be out of the other room it was in, soon. - I was right! LOL

Okay, jacket should have been a winter one. AC is not being nice. Blanket in and there's a damp cool breeze. Sigh, at least not for long.

Even had the low setting heat on while commuting this morning. I'm getting old. LOL

Good morning

It's been a long busy week for me and I'm so glad to get 2 days off.

I finally got a good night's sleep last night after almost a week of sleeping less than 4 hours a night...I need at least 6 to function properly.

Danielle fired up the smoker yesterday and had smoked chicken Cordon Bleu ready for us when I got home from work it was so good.

Time to put on the first load of laundry the one good thing about Trey being gone is my laundry chores have been cut in half.

Lynne, happy new year and stay dry. Hope you escape the storms path.

Carole, only 2 more nights for you countdown is at 8 for us. I was getting nervous with all the tropical storm activity and hope we all escape them during our trips.

Hi to Robo, bobbie, charade, keisha, monyk, tlinus, patty, ck and our fearless leader mac...and I agree with Lynne...Robbie, where's the trip report? (last I heard he was stuck on the plane waiting to get home)

Have an awesome day everyone!

 

[schumigirl]

Vicki, glad you’re sleeping better.......it really is no fun not sleeping! Yep, you’re right behind us with your countdown........I’m ignoring all weather reports.......as it’s one thing I cannot change or alter......so I can somehow not worry too much........well, maybe just worry a little Our planes have gone right up over Canada at times to avoid weather systems........so fingers crossed! Long as we’re there we can deal with anything.........


We have more rain........glad I got all bedding and other laundry done yesterday.........it’s so cold.......well, not really cold, it’s just not warm........

Tried to get lots done today but few friends popped in at different times........gotta love early birthday cards and gifts.......

Now thinking about dinner........

 

[pattyw]

Good Monday afternoon to all!! Very behind on reading all the posts here!

Late start today- we arrived last night after midnight! Took the morning off- heading to work this afternoon!

Big family dinner later My mom turns 86 on Sept 11. My niece is in town to celebrate! Mom loves pasta- so a spaghetti dinner it is! And cake- she loves dessert!!


Hope everyone has a great day!

 

[Lynne G]

to Patty’s Mom. Hope she enjoys her birthday pasta dinner.

Glad to hear you arrived safe and sound Patty, do not blame ya, I would have taken the day off after such a late flight.

 

[schumigirl]

Hope your mum has a good night out Patty...…..

Lynne you still wet over there???

Hope keisha hasn't floated away...……..


Just tried to call my mum...…..she`s out again...…..83 ears old and has the social life of that social butterfly everyone talks about...…...thankfully of course. Then she tries to tell us she hasn't been out much recently...…...all those missed calls say different!!!

Heating is still on...….but rain forecast all night.

Almost time for jammies on after dinner at this rate!!!

 

[Lynne G]

Yep Schumi, another wet and cool day.

Hope you have a restful night. One more, and the one after that will be your start of fun.

 

[pattyw]

Hope your mum has a good night out Patty...…

Thanks!

That's just wonderful about your mum! My mom has macular degeneration and cannot see well which is frustrating for her. But she loves to go out to dinner and travel with us sometimes!

It's 59 here today! Brrr!! I guess many of us are freezing!

 

[macraven]

If it makes anyone feel better, my weather is now at 83 and we got a short shower at noon
And tonight will be in the 60’s

Back to 90-91 Wednesday

Been watching the hurricane situation and it does not look good for many travelers

Hope none here will have travel woes


for pattyw’s mom this week

Hope all can pig out on cake and ice cream



Schumi you have two celebrations in September during your trip

Anniversary and your birthday

You’ll be at the best place to do both events up great


A big to all the homies and our readers

 

[schumigirl]

Thanks!

That`s a shame...…..but good to know she still gets around. Some people hibernate when things like that hit.

My mum is chasing me right now to take her back to New York...…..I think June next year might be a little bit far away with one thing and another, so I`m considering October.....but not sure that`s going to work out.

We have 54 today. Not fun.
