Something About Nothing............ #14

[Robo56]

pulling head out of my um donkey, realized it was a very special day (yesterday) for Carole and her mr...

Happy Anniversary to Carole and Tom.

 

[Robo56]

Safe travels. Maybe u will
Be there for the delayed rocket launch. Enjoy HHN

Fingers and toes crossed. Would be a something to remember for sure.


I’am exhausted from getting ready to leave.

I’am exhausted from getting ready to leave.

I can only imagine, i get wiped out packing for a week or so trip. can’t imagine the stuff u need to remember to pack for such a long stay. If i don’t use a (long) list, always forget something or other important.

 

[macraven]

If i forget to pack something important, I just buy the items once I am in Orlando

 

[keishashadow]

HEADS UP SAN Family!
SWA is having their COMPANION PASS PROMO again...Today: 6 SEP thru Thursday 8 SEP.

Make sure to read the fine print..but it's a pretty darn good promotion if you can make the calendar work for you!

Oh, I’ve been trying all afternoon & failing miserably.

between

having mostly NR air booked thru December on spirit and allegiant (due to SWA taking such a big bump in price & cutting so many flights In our market)

&

the companion fare only good thru 3/4, it’s looking doubtful to work for us

Happy hunting, hope it works for you.

If i forget to pack something important, I just buy the items once I am in Orlando

It’s generally a magic band, sun pass, prescription etc. Stuff you really have to jump thru hoops to replace. i go for the gusto

 

[Lynne G]

Oh I’m a good packer, same size case no matter how many days. I do bring those small detergent packs, and dryer sheets, as easy to do wash if needed. I do make a Target run to buy snacks and drinks for the room. And pick up whatever I forgot, including a hairbrush last time. Sometimes have to make more than one stop. LoL

Yeah, SW deal sounds good, but doubt we are traveling those times. Little one is tossing so I do a one stop with SW or try another airline to go at least one way, then book SW for return flight. Kills that no stop flights, and not many flights on a week day.

I came across RBX capris at Kohl’s last year and they are the lightest weight pants I have ever bought and they roll up nice in suitcase. I went to RBX site and bought more. Perfect for hot weather.

I have always wondered how people get by with one of those big backpack cases.

I do laundry while I’am there at least once or more. Really have to with all the clothes being changed do to the heat.

Need to get to bed. 4 am will be here before I know it.

My younger sister K is going and I need to pick her up by 5.

Thank you Lynne. Weather was great.





Yes, a good pampering Foo Foo day is so nice. Coffee was very good.



Thank you Janet. I do enjoy putting up my Halloween decorations.




Thank you Pumpkin. Fall and Halloween are one of my favorite times of the year.



Thank you Mac.




Thank you Lynne.



Lynne it is always so hard to remember the loss of a parent. I hope your good memories with your dad help you when you think of his passing this time of year.




Yep, that would be a bit of a problematic environment to work in.




Thank you Carole. Wedding was beautiful.

So good to hear you and Tom are back home in Orlando and having a wonderful time. You have some birthday and anniversary celebrations coming up soon.



It’s always so nice to celebrate with family.




I do like pumpkin scented candles, shower jels and a good pumpkin spice cold brew from Starbucks.

I love that pumpkin products are a reminder of the return of Fall and Halloween. My favorite time of year.

Bring it on.



Yep, shorts hang around for a while in the south.



Returned home late yesterday evening from wedding weekend. It was a beautiful wedding.

The wedding was held on the brides family farmland down by the Cedar Creek River. The area where the wedding was held was on beautiful stretch of land overlooking the river.

Bride was beautiful and my sweet nephew was a handsome groom.

It was so wonderful getting to see our family getting together to celebrate the wedding. Had some wonderful visits with everyone.

Trip was long, but my sister and I had plenty to talk about. Always makes the trip seem shorter when having a good chat with family on the way.

The route we traveled was mostly farmland and was very scenic.

The wedding party and all the family from out of town stayed in the same nice hotel. That gave all of us ample time to visit and it was lovely.

I need to do some laundry and switch over suitcase to Universal attire.

Have a few errands to run.

Leaving for Florida early Wednesday morning then up to Orlando Thursday for some HHN fun.

Need to get scootin.


Have a wonderful Monday everyone.

Glad the wedding was such a success……safe travels up to Orlando.

pulling head out of my um donkey, realized it was a very special day (yesterday) for Carole and her mr...

who truly were made for each other!

Thanks Keisha…….love the meme…….

Nice, I’m chasing tail last few days. Need to pull out calendar myself.

Net to decide when/where to get my hair touched up (or not) beforehand lol. When the mr mentions when I’m going, take it as a hint.

lol…..we all love getting some salon time.….

Happy Anniversary to Carole and Tom.

Thank you Robbie.

Yep, it’s easy to pick up anything you missed.




Still having a blast……..

 

[Lynne G]

Yay, Schumi still having a blast. And a very happy wedding anniversary to you.

Robo, I hope you are at the airport now, and getting ready to take off. Safe travels today. And have a fabulous time with your sister. Hope you have some fabulous weather too.

But yay,


Yep, that mid week of a day, when we get to say, get over this very literal hump of a day, and woot, a Friday then becomes one day away. So as the camel says, hope you have a very happy, wonderful Wednesday today.

Well a very wet Tuesday we had, enough rain, area drought conditions are no longer. A cloudy, and cooler Wednesday, with low 70’s the high. Eh, still in shorts until I go outside for my lunchtime walk. If I feel way too cool, won’t change my short sleeve shirt, but would change to lightweight pants. But house, while feels a bit cool, I’m fine with shorts.

Thankfully, the 10 day forecast has 80’s highs. Perfect September in my book. Hehe, little one wants it cool enough to wear a sweatshirt. Today, she may get that want.

Tea and back to that week day routine. Did confirm a three day weekend, so even though I have to commute tomorrow, now that little one is 21, thinking of shore time. See one shore town has casinos. So since a full day of sunshine predicted for Friday, we may head East to the sea on Friday.

A good morning wish here. Wednesday homies. And another wish Robo and sister have a safe and quick flight, then will having a wonderful time in wonderful sunny weather starting today.

 

[macraven]

good morning to all !

 

[schumigirl]

good morning to all !

Good morning to you mac……

Hope you’re doing good and enjoying a lovely relaxing morning……

It‘s beautiful here, been looking at the most gorgeous sunrise over RP…….

Not long till we get to see you, Janet and Nashville Trio…….



Quick drop in…….still deciding what to do today…….another hot one ahead, no surprises there.

@Baldy goes home today, it’s been lovely chatting to her in the lounge over this last week, lovely lady.

Heading for breakfast soon………might give the champagne a miss this morning, been having Carole Mimosas every day so far! Nice….

 

[macraven]

Carole Mimosas is an excellent way to start the day!

 

[Monykalyn]

Gooood morning SANS!Travel day-made it to Atlanta, boarding for flight to MCO should start in 25 min or so. Stuck in middle seat. Looks like overbooked flight so depending on incentives may see of later flight. Problem is those flights look very full as well.
Already tired as I made unwise choices last night-went out with friends to local microbrewery for her birthday-fun bingo going on outside (absolutely gorgeous night)-& well-didn’t get to sleep as early as I should have with 6 am flight
Kiddo isn’t done with school and her meetings til 530 today . Figure I’ll get her and have dinner somewhere then hit HHN.
Plan on doing the target run and pick up my owners locker.
May get some small bottles of Prosecco so I can start my days Ala Carole as no club level access. Did see HR club room for several days-almost switched to that then offsite villa for the next week, would have actually saved me money too! But the thought of missing sapphire made me too sad, it’s been a year since we’ve been there!

Hope to see some of you soon!
Lynne we’ve got Mickeys party the 18th. Hoping we get to say hi if it timing works out!

 

[Lynne G]

Sweet MonyK, you going to Mickey party the day I check in. I have that 6:30 am flight, so should be at SF by lunchtime. I’ll be starving, so will probably hit that chicken place before hitting the Target to stock my room and pick up whatever I forgot. Will give ya a text to see if can meet up before you leave for MK.

 

[Pumpkin1172]

It's hump day...and I can see Friday on the horizon!

Finally caught up from the weekend. Caught some sort of flu while we were camping with the kids. It knocked my socks off. Still not 100% back yet, but at least starting to feel human again. I did work yesterday morning, but went home to sleep in the afternoon. Hopefully I'm on the mend now.

Not much else happening in our neck of the woods. The weather has cooled a bit, but is still nice and warm. The sun keeps shinning, so the farmers are going, going,going here with harvest in full blast. Hopefully it keeps up! It would be great for them to actually get great fall where they can complete all the combining and get some of the pre-winter work done on the fields.

We brought our dd's dogs home with us while they are waiting to get possession of their new place. They are in a tiny rental that doesn't allow pets - so we have dumb and dumber lol. They are sweet, and not much work - just the one is a little " special" in the smarts department lol. But he's a loyal sweet guy and all he wants to do is snuggle. I'm going to head out at lunch to find some new toys for them while they are at our place.

Trip was long, but my sister and I had plenty to talk about. Always makes the trip seem shorter when having a good chat with family on the way.

The route we traveled was mostly farmland and was very scenic.

It's always great to have a good travel companion and scenic views. I love to see the farmland when we travel too.

Airport yesterday that handles just a few commercial flights per day. How small is it? Only 2 TSA lines

No ckd bag & boarding pass on his phone. Arrived at an out the door security line 1-1/2 hrs early. He just got thru TSA just in time to Board the plane.

Sounds like our local airport. Very small - but at least I have flights that we can connect to the bigger centers. But it does take longer to get through security than the bigger airports.

There may be a trip report with photos.

Yay

T minus 12, 11 more sleeps before that late September fun.

Heading for breakfast soon………might give the champagne a miss this morning, been having Carole Mimosas every day so far! Nice….

That sounds like the perfect way to start ALLLL mornings while on holidays!

Have an amazing trip!!!!

Well, I should get a start on the paper shuffle.

Have a great day everyone!!!!

Mummy dust well wishes sent to Pumpkin. Ack, to catching a nasty flu bug while camping this weekend. I’m enjoying, not, an ear infection. Doctor said no giving out antibiotic unless I don’t feel better after a week. Seemed to give me that pain Monday night. Always something now back to more routine with people.

Kids went out, said how cold. Did keep my shorts on for walk. But would not say a warm feeling day. Almost dull looking.

Now hope lots of tea for me. And for Pumpkin too. Dog snuggles are always nice.

 

[schumigirl]

Isn’t it the best!!

Works for us…….

I think I’m a bad influence…….I’ve convinced several others it’s the way to start the day too……why not!

Hope you feel back to normal soon, sucks feeling poorly. Puppies sound cute, especially cuddly ones.




Popped back home to do some laundry, we’ve been gone a week now so wanted to give some things a freshen up. I do like the laundry room in Sapphire better than RP, much bigger and lots more machines.

Studios this morning, Mummy wasn’t open again and lots of boarding’s up around the park. And hot, but it’s gorgeous.

Planning a quick visit to HHN tonight, do a couple of houses and leave early, cloud is building so hope opening time isn’t ruined by another downpour like the one we missed opening night.

Loving our time here

 

[Lynne G]

Hope Robo and MonyK had safe travels yesterday, and will be enjoying some park fun today.

Ah yes, nothing like a pitch dark commute. And damp feeling. And as came out, saw car windows fogged over with dew. Ugh. I think I had clear windows just before I arrived. See car warmer than air, with a muggy 63 out said the outdoor thermometer. Partly cloudy day, but that sunrise will be filled with glorious golden sunshine. But that’s not for another 1/2 hour from now, or a few minutes more than that. Respectable 81 the high. Perfect late Summer temps. And tomorrow, high weather setting up, walk to wall sunshine Friday. Yes!

But quick in the mornings, as even traffic is quiet, well for the car horns blowing at the intersection after I had parked.

Thus, tea for me no matter where. And thirsty I am, as feels almost too cool inside. Do have a lightweight sweater that is like those you see that are like a coat, but are nicer being sweater, and comfortable. So have that to wear over my blouse.

Thus, a very happy Thirsty Thursday. And yay, a feeling like a Friday one for me.

Good morning all.

 

[Charade67]

Super quick hello. I got to work too early today, so I am killing some time before going inside.
I’m less than 2 weeks from my trip. Can’t wait to see some of you there.
