Pi, did i hear Pi?
. Almost 70 degrees here, woo hoo
Thinking for June/July trip we may just do the first 3 nights @ WBC. Believe it or not it’s approx the same price as one night @ PF, which i find utterly ridiculous whether there is a new coaster or not. We’ve visited same time period several times, it’s only gone up since i’ve Been checking this year. Sigh. Guess i better nail something down for Oct before I’m whining the same tune
DiL talked me into accompanying & GD DL for their first visit late August. She bought airfare this AM, a red eye coming back (boo-hoo, that’ll be my first for that). All i need to do is rustle up a non-skanky hotel, of which there are many there it seems-ew, ew, ew. Will celebrate the minion’s 9th bd
Love the cat
Any trip over 12 hours can challenge the best of amicable marriages IMO. I’m that person who wants to make time/doesn’t want to make frequent stops, mr is totally different, he enjoys the journey. How dare he? Haha
I have a canister of Clorox wipes in bathrooms & kitchen, buy in bulk from
amazon, I feel you. Just always forget to pick up small pkg to take on plane. Probably wouldn’t get sick nearly every time if i did.
I can’t remember, did I give you the name of the place we stay at for DL?
Glad you are feeling better Charade, and are eating some now. Very pretty dress. So nice she likes a ball gown dress. Little one would not been seen in a dress like that. I tried hard to get her to pick a royal blue one very similar to B’s dress that was gorgeous on her, but it was a loud no. Oh well. I hope B has fun, and no too many alterations needed. Little one does her own makeup for every day, but for prom, she likes to be more formal, as all the girls around her do. Pictures, ya know.
And, as of 4:45 am today, we have no power. Good thing DH and I wake up without an alarm, and lucky, I had my phone charging next to my bed. Nice it’s flashlight works well enough to see. Off to take a shower, and get dressed. Without the heater working, it needs electricity to spark the flame, so house is feeling cool, I may leave a little earlier. Here is hoping kids answer their phone. Windy sounding outside. Sigh.
And this is Friday!
What caused the power out? I usually wake up by myself but just in case I always had my iPhone alarm set! Hope she enjoys getting the makeup done! I had it done for myself once for my nephews wedding. Wow! I thought I did a good job doing my own but this guy was amazing. When he asked what I wanted, I said I still want to look like me, but better lol.
Hey all you homies.
Well, about a 20 minute earlier, still raining and very wet commute, and seems like the traffic is about the same. And, ooh, step out the door, can't see. Bad hair day alert. Hair tie ready, and puffy hair day alert too. Extra reason for that hair tie.
Oh, thanks for the info on that skin care company, Sue. May take a ride up to NYC, and goggle where all that stuff that isn't found around my City can be found.
With that, it is a Friday, and that needs some reminders:
Love Kermit! You’re welcome, when I find something I really like, and works, I like to share. You don’t have to be near a store, you can order online. Sephora on line also has it. I’ve always used high end products that cost $$$. So I was amazed at this company. The founder was unhappy with how much the major companies marked up products. So the company gives high quality at affordable prices. Win win. I started with their serum, The Buffet with Copper. I liked it so much as I ran out of products, I started replacing with The Ordinary products. And just picked up eye serum from Hylamide. The company has 3 lines of skin care. The Ordinary, Hylamide and Niod.
My rendezvous with my dentist aka dr death
, was a 2 fer yesterday & get to go back to do it again next week, oh yea to me. Gums not quite accepting the re-installed crown of a few weeks ago. Feel like i’m At war to keep my teeth in my head at this point
Family likes my burgers. All agree when5 guys came to town, they copied ‘me’
. I’m of the if anyone cares to grab take out or make said dinner, it tastes better to me no matter what it is. Not a fan of stuffed burgers though, reminds me of meat loaf for some reason.
Chinese food often veeres from ‘clean food’ into rather murky waters at buffets, etc. fact that it sits on warming tables surely doesn’t help the cause.
When digging around for place to eat our first night upcoming trip in SEA, saw that a jack in the box is nearby. Have heard of but never have seen/tried. Anyone ever tried the chain?
Never heard of that brand. Have tried Honest brand, fine but don’t really see any appreciable difference other than the environmental benefits they tout.
What i really need is a mild, gentle cleanser that will work with my newly purchased battery operated facial brush. Tried 2 different ones I had on hand. One was too thick of consistency, ala more of a mask type). The other just absorbed into the brush head.
Oh, sorry about the dental problems. There’s nothing worse! Hope dentist can fix it. I love 5 Guys! So good.
Yes, I’ve heard of Jack in the Box! Have gone to them in California. Not in a long time though. What area are you staying in? Are you looking for take out only? When we stay in Sea we usually stay in the Southcenter Mall Tukwilla area and there are several take out places. Chipotle, for one. Shake and Go. We stayed downtown once and ate at Cheesecake Factory.
Happy Friday. This means laundry and house cleaning for me. At some point I also need to get to the grocery store.
I found my old magic band today, so I am going to take it to Disney and see if it still works.
I know we ate Chinese food when we lived in Miami, I just don’t remember anything about it. I guess that means that the food we had was neither exceptionally good nor exceptionally bad.
Dh hates eating at chain restaurants when we go on vacation unless it is a chain we don’t have here.
Thanks. She says it makes her feel like she should be on the red carpet in Hollywood.
75 sounds heavenly. It is sunny here today but in the 50s and windy.
Laundry is calling.
Yay for finding your Band. Always good to have 2. I must say, I like the newer ones, they seem softer.
I did eat at PF Chang in N. Miami Beach, Aventura area. There’s one on Biscayne. That was decent, but over priced!
Temps dropped here from 70 at beginning of week to 59 today and partly cloudy.
Probab from Irma then..Not sure, but there are definitely tons of busy bee construction projects and/or repairs going on! Such a pretty little town!
We stay just below Delray in Deerfield Beach. 2 yrs ago Irma hit. We were lucky we had flights out 2 days before Irma hit. Our last day I had to wait in an hour gas lineup to fill rental car at Costco before returning car. Gas stations were running out of gas, Costco ran out of water, it was crazy! Florida is so slow with hurricane repairs. Replacing street signs, etc.
Happy TGIF all!!
There were snow flurries this morning- but temps are above freezing so it melted! Yay!
Good morning Schumi, Mac, Sue, Buckeev, and all the other peeps here!
Think I'l order Panera for lunch! Need to stock up on groceries this weekend!
Have a great day all!!
Snow flurries yikes! Panera sounds good!
Ha, I had a Jack in the Box near where I used to work many a years ago, but it closed down soon after I started working there. A Checkers took it's place, and I am not sure that is even there now. 5 Guys is usually our burger place.
Older one told me around 10:30 this morning, power back on. From a map from our electric provider, seemed like an underground cable, quite close to us, was not working as the cause. You'd have thought with the bustling wind, and heavy rain last night, it would have been a cause above ground. Just thankful that it happened in the wee hours, after all went to bed, and now got it back in less than a day.
You know it was windy, when office windows were whistling from the wind. Once again, the bare tree outside my window is doing the rumba. And yay, a bit of sun to be seen. That, and the wind, should dry up all the wet that was this morning. It rained until almost 11. Wind Advisory out for today, and tomorrow. High of 52 these 2 days as well. In other words, light weight winter jacket still on.
Yep, with the sun, it's a good time to talk my lunch walk. You can bet, that hair tie is in, and the sunglasses on.
Wow that sounds quite the wind storm. It is surprising the problem would be underground! I hate wind storms, they set my teeth on edge. Don’t like to see the tall trees swaying.
Yep......it’s in preparation for the new JP ride.......looks to be an absolute whopper of a ride......not aimed at kiddies.......
Chinese buffets are to be avoided for sure.......in fact in general I avoid most buffet places.........although I do like RP and Sapphire breakfast buffets........
@Sue M .....we had lunch at Hot and Juicy Crawfish today.......beautiful!!!!
Beautiful hot day today.........we love this heat!!!!
Last full day, so we have said some goodbyes to those we won’t see tomorrow.......heading over to Club Lounge later to say our goodbyes there, especially to one who is being promoted and we won’t see him the same amount anymore, we loved to chat to him for ages when we went to the lounge.......then going to do the Wok experience tonight before heading back to Sapphire and StrongWater Bar.........
Feeling a little whooped........so many late nights and early mornings are catching up with us........but loved every second!
Hope everyone has a great weekend.........
I agree, I avoid the Chinese Buffets. Some buffets are bad what ever kind of food. But I like the Disney ones. They keep the food fresh.
Can’t wait for Hot and Juicy! Both my crab loving daughter and my friend are excited about it. What did you order? How’s the shrimp? Won’t be long now. A month from tomorrow we leave for Ft. Lauderdale flights.
Is the Wok experience affected by lobby Reno?
Safe travels home!
