Hump de hump
Been busy bee since Saturday. Lost track of how many meals out, nice break to not cook every day.
Mini heat wave here woot, might crack 60 degrees. Naturally, followed by reality check this weekend, but nice to catch a break
Oh yes! On morning flights I enjoy mimosas with the Prosecco!
Lack of sunshine makes me feel blah too. Happy it’s sunny today and 37, supposed to go up to 47 by afternoon. Maybe snow will start melt. At least around 8” of snow in the yard.
More of a Bloody Mary chick but thanks. Lent my fancy rolling carry on bag to DiL over a month ago. Ahem, time to call it home to make sure it fits Alaska’s dimensions. Are they tough on enforcing the dimensions? SWA is pretty loosey goosey
I am so bored right now. I went back to sleep after I posted this morning. Dreamed about ice cream. Got up, went to lunch, and then back home. Dh is now watching a movie that I have no interest in. If I get bored enough I might start house cleaning.
But did you get ice cream?
Have you figured out the whole process of seeing SW @ DL? I’m scratching my head as to the reservation thing
Lazy day here too-I slept in til almost 10 this morning!! Couldn't figure out why it was so bright til I looked at the time.
Me today.
Fashion show for the fashion club at the 4 Boys&Girls club yesterday; started with doing the girls nails at the salon that was doing the hair/makeup for the kids. A A couple of the boys decided on polish too-love these kids who get to express their creativity. Talked with a mom at the show who said her daughter was doing this for the first time and it was so outside her comfort zone-and her DD rocked it-she really shined and looked like a runway model! My middle DD helped with the nails and and did her DD's nails. 10 am start, by end of show was 8-had arranged for son's friend's dad to get my boy to take to soccer (DH out of town and DD wanted to see fashion show) for 9 pm game. Home at 11 (had to stop for food for growing boy). I think I needed the sleep!
DH got tickets for my Christmas present to The Lion King musical for this past Thursday-amazing show! So dang good. Told him best present ever!!
So after these busy days today was...lazy lol! Apparently I slept through a loud thunderstorm this am, per son. Then sunny but really windy! Blew deck and patio furniture into heaps. Need to get chick brooder and supplies tomorrow as plan to get some babies Monday.
Oh hugs to Liv! Sounds like she is able to handle things with support though. Tough to be a mom to these teens isn't it?
Mardi Gras next year??? Need something to look forward to/plan/obsess over LOL
NOPE! wish we'd get rid of it!
Woot!! Have fun!
I hear ya! I've done the "quiet" ie bathrooms/dusting/mopping cleaning late at night before when I couldn't sleep. Hope your trip to
Disneyland goes well with announcement of Star wars stuff!
Think we may see this tomorrow. And graduation is coming ever closer for you and Charade's DD's! Have 2 graduating next year and really hoping not same day (in 2 states)
Speaking of older DD-she got notified she has an IRIS internship for her field this summer! Now she is supposed to rank her top 3 choices (our of 18) and write why she wants them/is qualified for them. All of her top 3 have field work: one in New mexico, one with field work in Alaska, and one in Australia (think this is her top choice). She hasn't heard on summer Alumni for Disney yet but now that she has choices in her field she will probably do one of them. I tried to read the descriptions she sent, seems most have to do with seismic activity and climate changes effect on earths mantle/crust or something like that.
Marvel movies on two channels tonight.
Always nice to see a man with clean nails, see no issue with polish if it floats their boat
IRIS ? No idea but congrats!
Ur DH hit it out of the park
Good morning from Orlando........
Been awake since around 4.30.......wandered around a little....looked out the windows a few times......but eventually just got up........
We had an eventful but safe flight over.....although we had a few incidents including possible faulty engine, a plane that may or may not be able to take off and a pair of bare feet!!! Yep......never dull.......
And the engine incident had me thinking of Phoebe and her phalange.......
In a beautiful Sapphire Suite again and did sleep well........after a few cocktails in Strong Water........
Haven’t caught up with all the posts but did see Sue mention Orlando in September........yes, we’re there for a full month then so should be able to say hello at some point.....
We arrive Sept 3rd and leave Oct 2nd.......
Ok......might as well just go shower and get up and go for breakfast.........no parks today, may go to Mardi Gras tonight or leave it till Tuesday..........meeting J’aime Paris Monday evening.........
Have a great Sunday
Why am I thinking ‘eventful’ is the understatement of the year? Know u are stoic as to turbulence, have a feeling it was gosh-awful. Don’t get me started on the feet. I am not a fan of the women in bootie shorts or miniskirts either. Idea of all that skin being rubbed on the seat wants to me to be that person & start carrying wipes.
Good morning. Everyone awake yet?
Today is the unofficial start of spring where I live. We have a very popular ice cream place that is only open during spring and summer. It’s basically a food truck with a permanent location. They are opening today. May have to stop by later this afternoon.
B got some good news yesterday. A little background - she has a friend, Sarah, who she has known since second grade. Sarah was planning on going to college in Hawaii. About a month ago she got a call from the athletic department letting her know that due to intense budget cuts they could no longer honor their commitment to her as a student athlete. She has spent the past month trying to find another school where she can play volleyball. Yesterday she announced that she has signed on to play on a new division one volleyball team at a school here in Virginia. This one is only 4 hours away. I’m sure Sarah’s parents are happy about this as well.
Mac - Hope there wasn’t any flooding and you were able to safely get to church today.
Monyk - Congrats to dd on the internships.
Lynne - You are making me want to go see the movie right now. Maybe we could go this afternoon instead of waiting until next weekend.
Sue - We have a Disneyland trip panned for June. Well, it is just part of our trip. We offered a graduation trip for B. She wanted to go to New Zealand. We told her that wasn’t in the budget and asked her second choice. She said Holywood. We are going to spend a couple of days in Hollywood, then go to Disney, and then the San Diego Zoo.
Schumi - Looking forward to hearing about your trip. This time next year we might actually be able to go to FL as a family. B and dh will finally have the same spring break.
I want to go back to sleep, but I can’t. Is it wrong that I am already looking ahead to lunch?
Our local frozen custard stand usually not until closer to Easter but since so late this year, who knows.
I admit to not being what i call ‘fake ice cream’ fan other than dole whips
Good Monday morning homies
I’m just chilling with cats on my lap
Cats really know how to start a week
They just eat a snack and find a warm place to nap until lunch time
Lol
Walking dead I always watch and the show after and then the encore
But I don’t talk about it until all have caught up and watch what they missed
Have a great Monday !
TWD has been so good lately i’ve Been staying up late to watch it
. Was annoyed with the ‘twist’ at end of episode, who didn’t see that coming?
Quick drive by........
Parks are busy. Not Christmas or Easter busy........but busy.
The regular line for Minions was 85 minutes this morning.......we waited around 7 minutes with EP. Longest we’ve waited for a while in the Express line......
And it is HOT!!!
Loving this.........
No Mardi Gras tonight but will be there tomorrow night.........
Off for some pool time, maybe Club Lounge for an hour then meeting J’aime Paris later.......
Have fun.........
It always turns out to be minions. Welcome to spring break
Hi everybody
I'm back to the land of the living after having health issues for the past few weeks.
Carole...glad you made it safely and are enjoying the sunshine. Drink a rum revival for me
Monyk...love the new little chicks.
Shout out to mac, Robo, patty, sue, bobbie, janet, Lynne, Charade and anyone else I missed.
We're going to see Captain Marvel this afternoon with dinner afterwards at the local Hibachi restaurant. It will be nice to get out for something other than work for a change.
Now it's raining again
Have a wonderful day everyone
Feeling better? Nothing like a day out to clear your head.
I’ve been lucky on flights. I’ve seen people with their feet where they don’t belong but thankfully not near me.
Hope you adjust to time change soon. It takes me a few days, and that’s only 3 hrs. So hard to get up at 6:00am when it’s 3:00am to me! Same with getting to sleep. Midnight in Florida but 9pm for me. I use over the counter sleep aide to help adjust.
Guess spring break crowds have started?
I’m not ready for short sleeves here! 39f here and raining, yuck. May turn to snow tonight if temps drop. I’m so done with it.
There’s a dairy on the other side of the border that has fresh icecream, haven’t stopped there in years. Also one near where the dds and I go for mother’s day. The farm store sells cheeses and icecream! Made from their cows of course. So yummy.
Glad chiropractic is helping with the aches and pains! Everyone seems to be out seeing Capt Marvel! I’m going to have to get one of the daughters to go with me!
Good for Liv getting on with the coaster project. But I really think if teachers are assigning group projects they should be given class time to do part of it. My daughter had a group project in one of her classes last semester and she ended up doing most of it. So unfair. And this is college. Ugh.
I’m with you, no shorts till mid 70s lol!
I put both pecans and choc chips in if I have them! Now thinking of banana bread!
Yes, time for Neegan again! I was wondering if he’d try breaking out to join the new group, but I think Alpha is too scary even for him, lol.
I think our snow should be melting, it’s raining. But worried it may turn to snow overnight eek. Cute welcome pic for the chickies!
Hi Mac! I watch Talking Dead too. But I’ve been good. No spoilers!
Sounds like a fun cocktail party! Choc chips are so good in banana bread. I like the milk choc ones!
So great! Love it!
Welcome back to the living! Raining here too. Seems like I’m only one who hasn’t seen that movie yet!
Love pizza, yum. What beach do you go to? I can’t wait to be a lizard on the beach in April!
Quiet day here. Went to morning aquafit class with my friend, then we stoped at Safeway to pick up a few things. They had an airmiles coupon for 40 mile bonus if you buy $30 of liquor. Done!
I think it’s way easier with time change going west vs east as to travel
Just can't bring myself to try any food with rattlesnake in the title!! Jalapenos are too hot for me, too!!
Lynne- Hope your computer starts to cooperate!!
Robo- nice beach pic!!
Charade- hope today is a better day at work.
Your boss seems trying at times!
Happy Tuesday all!! Warming up here!! Snow is pretty much melted. But it looks like the weekend beings the temps back down in the 30s! But still above freezing, so I guess that's not too bad!!
to all my friends here!! Have a great day!!
Think Spring!!!
Oh no! Hope all is well with the kitties!
It's getting close!!
Beach crawl sounds fun!! I've only visited Cocoa Beach, Deerfield Beach , & Hollywood Beach on the east coast. West coast we've done St. Pete, & Siesta Key. Lots more to explore!
Overwhelmed with paperwork!!
I really cannot wait until I get all these year end financials done!!
Hope everyone is having a good afternoon!
No snake, how about gator? None for me yet lol
Bit further but the west coasts FLA beaches are amazing IMO
Another quick drive by.....
Hey Vicki......
I had 3 rum revivals last night.......
Well, went to Disney Springs in first time in 11 years.........and won’t need to go back for another 11 years......that us done.....it was alright but nothing special........
Did have a beautiful lunch in Boathouse.........I’d go back for that and maybe Homecomin’ but glad we saw it.
Had a lovely evening with J’aime Paris last night in Strong Water Bar........good food, company and cocktails, and we chatted the night away!! Such a good evening with a lovely lady.......
Mardi Gras later.......sadly we had such a huge lunch, doubt we’ll have room for food.......for now
Hope everyone’s good........
Re Dtd, I told you so
lol had to say it, was one of my favorite, now lost tag-lines
Went to Taco Bell for dinner
They were out of nacho cheese... ugh
And they were out of fries so could not get the rattlesnake fries
Those fries were listed on their outdoor sign so was happy to see this store did have them until we went to the counter to order
Will try again next week for the “limited time offer” for them
Ended up ordering my usual chalupa
How could they possibly run out of nacho cheese hahaha Not that TB fan, or Mexican in general but sorely tempted to try those nacho fries. Are they in the ballpark of tasting like Doritos?
Eh, town size doesn't matter. LOL Mac. We went to the Miller's where we live, on a Friday afternoon. They were out of onion rings. What? And, when we went to a KFC down the street from us, on Sunday afternoon, they were out of the famous bowls. What?
- 20's in the overnight. And a brr, came out of my mouth when opening the car door. 30 degree commute, and it did feel cold. Clear sky though, and now, oooh, a very dark reddish, almost gold glowing horizon. We may see some sun today. Yeah, I do have my sunglasses.
With that, tea is needed, and so is the reminder that's it's Hump Day. That means, ahhhhh, Friday is in sight. And I am feeling a long weekend. It's been a long week, so yeah, time for a 3 day one. And, since one camel is not enough to let you know it's Wednesday:
and Patty's cat is right:
. Yep.
Have a wonderful, wahoo, Wednesday, all.
Give Mony's chicks some loving.
And, hope Charade has a quiet office today.
Hope Schumi is having a great time, and is on EDT time now.
Always appreciate the camels but will say that cat pic is a hoot
Ah, so glad to see all awake. LOL
Yeah, prom dressing. Hope Liv finds one, Bobbie, though our senior prom is not until end of May. Little one is now thinking of returning number 1 and keeping number 2. I like both, but think number 2 is nicer, and only less than 20 dollars in price. I was so happy both were on a very good sale. Funny, both are about the same very dark blue. And got a very good price on her black and sparkly shoes. I hope you feel much better today. Ha, I had dinner out with my coworkers, so when I came home, all three expected me to cook for them. What? Sigh. I have never said I want to be a cook. Thinking pasta tonight. Easy dinners are my go to.
Robo, glad you are enjoying some coffee and the nicer weather, even if breezy. I hope that second weather bomb goes well South of me. I think we get rain on Friday. And funny, news lady said this morning, last year, our last snow was March 20. Yeah, but living here most of my life, we definitely have had snow in April. But yay, with the rain, usually means warmer temps. Friday is to be in the mid 60's. I am really hoping these warmer days stay more consistent. Back to the low 40's for the week-end.
Mac, you're a hoot. Yep, have to show where I'd like to be, and well, what the white stuff is.
HeHe Bobbie, I had a cat that could stand like that too. Usually, when he smelled food.
Here they don’t permit returns on formal wear...apparently too many girls tucked the tags, wore, then returned ew
Do they have dress registrations in your neck of woods.
I got the trip itinerary last night. We leave the night of Friday 4/12 and drive all night. On the 13th the kids have to perform at competition/assessment or something like that. The rest of the 13th and the 14th will be spent at Universal/IOA. We have park to park tickets. The 15th will be Magic Kingdom, and the 16th will be Hollywood Studoos. No park hopper for Disney. We arrive back home the morning of the 17th. We are going to be exhausted.
I need to call the shop where I ordered B’s prom dress. It hasn’t arrived yet and she is getting anxious. Prom is April 6 and we still need to have alterations done.
Wow, that is a commando itinerary but u will have fun
