Something About Nothing ... #12

[schumigirl]

Janet, Charley`s has been on our radar for a long time to go back...….but the reviews vary so much I never want to take the chance...….but one day we will I`m sure...….we`re kind of boring maybe sticking to The Palm and Ocean Prime......do love both of them. Glad you enjoyed shopping for grand daughter......she`ll love what you bought her I`m sure...….

And only a couple of days till you go again!!!! Fabulous!!!!


Bacon has changed to lunch mac......but you already know that doh!!!! Though our lunch is breakfast for you though......that works!!!

Bacon and brie grilled sandwiches...…..plain bacon sandwiches for those that prefer it...…

This morning was a very dull but apparently healthy breakfast...……. all served with English breakfast tea, brewed in a pot and served in giant mugs this morning...…...both huge Potter mugs!!! Sometimes only a mug will do.

We drank a little wine last night...…… and it was lovely!!!!


Dull and grey this morning...….I want my heatwave back!!!! But, don't need to go out today...….always good to avoid Sunday shoppers.

Have a great day...…………...

Afternoon Schumi. 4 o’clock must be a witching hour. Awake, look at clock, yep 4 o’clock. Went back to sleep, and now just freshened up from a nice long shower. Think I hear rain again, and the roads sound wet with each passing vehicle.

Look outside, yep gray start of the day again.

Older one is happy. European football is starting, and he happily sat at home yesterday watching a few from the English Premier League. Yeah mom, you missed some. Oh no, I did see the one that started 6 am our time. I like seeing them, but not as avid a fan. Guess I will take a peek to see what is On the tube now.

Ooh Schumi, any of that tea left? Love most tea, and English breakfast tea, like Earl Gray, is my favorite to start the day. Most of the time I just use black tea leaf tea, almost always caffeinated. With that, tea for me too, and hmm, maybe I will make some pancakes to go with it. Omelet with cheese and pepper, yeah full breakfast time. It is Sunday.

Rise and shine homies. Sunday is here, and another August week start enfolds.

Hehe, I think I might have made less purchases than Keisha, but kids want to go to the outlets next week, so I will borrow her pocketbook. LOL. It is the time of year when you go when the stores just open. The back to school crowd does hit the outlets, and like most being an early bird is a good thing when shopping and when crowded times.

Follow on, watching my iPad and pancakes need my attention. Be good homies.

Happy Sunday morning Sans family




Morning Schumi and Lynne







Can’t tell what I’am thinking about this morning can you.........LOL........48 days till first night of HHN for us...Mac

Mac is that one of your fur babies in your avatar?

then watched first episode of Stranger Things........last couple of minutes hooked me!!!

Yes, “Stranger Things” is a good. They are filming the 3rd season now.


Tink I think I remember you saying you were hooked on “Stranger Things” too. When you are through with that check out “Riverdale” it was adapted from the Archie comics and it is really good.

 

[Lynne G]

Goal! Eh, watching a game, and island buying on the iPad. Yeah, a million or two, and it is mine. . Though some of them look like the mangrove ones we sea canoed through outside of Key West. Little one still talks about that almost private tour we had.

Morning Robo, hope this finds you in good spirits and good health. Yep, put on an almost neon greens shirt, and thought perfect for HHN. October is now less than 2 months away. Sad that I am missing those before 1 October, but since I am getting up before the crack of dawn(thank you for changing my mid morning flight to crack of dawn SW.) I get a longer day. Because the next direct flight is late afternoon, I made no changes, and will be ready to party with the homies that will be around at the mouse for that day, and next 4 days, then at the Dark Side for the following 8. Exciting.

10 is such a lovely number. Hey Keisha wave to me on you way home?

Good morning

At work now so I have to be quick

Robbie, I had to purchase st on DVDs so I may have to visit Trey to watch Riverdale if it's on Netflix too since we can't get wifi here in the sticks.

Here's another pic for all who are anxiously awaiting HHN
Have a great day everyone

Morning!
Here home and getting ready for back to school. Did some online school shopping yesterday, will have oldest help finish it up tomorrow or tuesday.
Arrived home Friday evening to the last of a storm-just rain by time we got home but looked liked some really nasty winds blew through-driveway littered with black walnuts and branches, and 1/2 my pear tree is bare with the pears now rotting on ground. Oh-and no power when we arrived-seems 1/2 the city without power for couple hours. Went on about 45 minutes after we got home but the kids who were here were playing hide and seek in the dark (summer/other daughter from Florida here with my middle and youngest).
Had to go grocery shopping yesterday too. Made roast chicken and stuffing and green beans yesterday for dinner. green beans and herbs from garden. Picked up my gift cards I had ordered (NO notification that I had to pick them up-had to call to find out where they were) from Allstate rewards (10% off the face value)-Carnival GC to pay off cruise. That 10% that is saved will go towards drinks I am sure.

Biscuits baking and gravy made and just waiting for peeps to wake up. Only dog, chickens and I are awake. Steak, baked potato, grilled corn on cob for dinner today.

Hurt my foot sometime while at Disney, really swelled up around top and front of foot. Could not figure what I did to it, do not remember hitting it or anything, did get stepped on multiple times. Finally took a closer look last night, dimple on my 2nd toe was weird-and oh-now bending in 2 different directions when curl toes. So pretty sure at some point I broke it. And continued to walk 10-12 miles daily. Taped together and hoping it heals somewhat decently!

Hope you are feeling better Mac!

Unsure of dates of when/if we will be able to make HHN. Calendar is ridiculously busy. And don't think I am able to keep a surprise like I wanted for the middle. Am going to wait until she gets schedule of her classes and when tentative tests etc are, then decide. October (mid) is looking more likely but I'd really prefer September...

Do any of you ever read the threads that are linked at the bottom of the page? I read one today (from 2014) from a woman complaining about a Disney trip. I read 2dozen pages of responses to her post. It was like a train wreck. I just couldn’t stop reading.

Oh Katiebug!! She is quite famous! She has an almost exact thread on another board-think the consensus is the post was a troll post LOL!

Riverdale is pretty good. I tend to binge watch it though.


MMM biscuits done, and coffee needs refill. Not ready to go back to work tomorrow!

Robbie
You have a sharp eye

Yes that is my sweet baby


Hope all the homies have a great day

Work week starts tomorrow for many here

Did the annual back to Skool clothes shopping for GD yesterday. Let’s just say i went a bit over budget, as in double haha. Justified it by calling half of it early BD present. Hey, i waited a looong to buy cute girl’s clothing. Need to make up for lost time .

Yep- hope I get to buy cute girl's clothing someday with grands!!

We drank a little wine last night...…… and it was lovely!!!!

Same here!

Pancakes sound yummy!!

Oh NO!! I hope it heals quickly!!

Good Sunday morning to Schumi, Lynne, Robo, Tink, Monyk, Mac, & all others just getting started!!

Beautiful morning here!
Saturdays always tend to be hectic days filled with errands, while Sundays are more laid back - spending time with family. Sunday is also a day to reflect on the past week and plan for the new!!

 

[ckmiles]

Good Morning! (or Afternoon!)

I have been MIA- my apologies- I have missed you guys. Work has been crazy. We had a new hire that started this week, he is my boss's boss's boss- and of course everyone was on vacation so I was asked to be in the office to show him around. Ugh- my anxiety did not like that but I survived.

Last night I went to see John Williams (who wrote the theme to start wars, Jaws, Harry Potter, etc) conduct the Boston Symphony Orchestra - He's 86 years old and still has so much energy. He played so from Star Wars, then Close Encounters of the Third kind. It was a great show- even if it was raining.

Also I was in a car accident- Im ok and so is my car- it was a minor fender bender, but now I have to deal with getting my car fixed. Hopefully its quick and I told the woman who hit me that I dont think we need to go thru insurance. I just want it fixed- not looking to scam anyone.

How is everyone?

Mac- are you feeling better?

Monyk- hope your foot feels better soon!

Tink- hope work is not too bac on a Sunday

Patty- Enjoy your quiet Sunday! Im camping out on the sofa today!

Robo- I like the minions -but the scary man not so much!

Lynne- enjoy the pancakes!

Schumi- your lunch sounds lovely!


Hope everyone has a great day!

MonyK. Hope the foot gets better soon!!! Hope it`s not too painful...…..

And ckmiles……...glad you`re ok and not hurt...…..that was lucky!!!


Ok Now I need to go walk for at least half an hour......haven't moved off this dining room chair for at least 2 hours!!! I have a numb bum!!! There`s a break in the rain so may march round a field or two for a little bit...…..

Need to think about dinner too...…...another couple of hours and my two will want feeding again!!!

Hope work settles down for you!!

Sorry about your car- glad only minor in damage. So nice you can settle it between yourselves! Not everyone is that kind!!

But hey, your fall trip is only a short time away!!

 

[pattyw]

Mac- Just love your new avatar!! She's beautiful!! We have 2 orange cats!

Here's our Oliver!

 

[Lynne G]

Ack, MonyK. Hope your toe heals fast. Tape together. Yep, have nurses in my family. Was one of them that told me that when I broke one of my toes. She did too, she tripped over her cat going down the stairs, me it was a dog.

CK, oh no, car accident. Though glad to hear no one not that hurt, and well, even with money and inconvenience, life can never be replaced.

Errands done, pancakes, eggs and taters done. Found I had a biscuit mix, and sausage patties, so made our own egg, cheese and sausage sandwiches.

More double viewing, English football and island time. Ah, so ready for all day sun and lovely, rain free weather.

 

[Lynne G]

Me. Oliver is giving a what you looking at look. He is cute, Patty.

The I do not want to go to Mickey’s Party tune said to mom after been asked several times, became, today, can you get us tickets as my friend is going, and is going to be down there same time as us? Thank goodness military discount night, and we can pick up from ITT office either before or after we arrive. Will be a first stop after picking up rental car.

Yeah, want a daughter for rent? Boys are so much easier, LOL.

You're a nice Mom for getting party tickets!!

So will you don costumes??

I'd love to rent a daughter!! And I get ya on boys being a tad easier in some ways.

 

[Lynne G]

That would be pushing it, Patty. Maybe a Halloween shirt or Disney bounding.

Kyle wasn't one for costumes either! One year the four of us went as hippies. I did get Kyle to wear a tye dye shirt!

I'd love to add MNSSHP in, too! It is so fun! Guess we'll see how the budget goes!

I will be going on the 2nd of October. Double shot for me. Yeah, costly. But, fun night. I really like the parade and fireworks. Plus, free candy. Hope if you really want to go, you can. I will definitely share the candy.
