Getting to do a hump day stop in!!!

Is really already Wednesday night?!! I seem to have blinked and the week is nearly done. Today was just one of " those days". one step forward, two steps back. The boss is on holidays, so more work falls on me. That's alright, next week is a short week for me as we are going to visit our bil and my family to celebrate the dh's neice's graduation. Another chance to see the grandbaby, and visit with my family who I don't get to see often. I haven't seen them since last June when our ds graduated and the dd wedding.

i’ve been doing the new disney world dance for last hour attempting to book park entrance reservations for the days I need for next three vacations. Talk about waste of time/3rd world problem. Yet, still i impatiently sit

I hope you get it sorted out. I realise that Disney is a different best, but everyone knows that Disney's glitchy technology is famous to not work at the best of times.

I called my salon number today but they haven't updated the outgoing message yet, so guess they aren't ready to take appointments yet. I had heard a rumour she wasn't going to reopen as it was going to be too expensive to do all the shields needed.....she`s just tight!!! Won`t part with a penny, even when she has to. But, hasn`t been shown to be true yet.

I'm sooooo glad that your now able to get haircuts and that restaurants are now opening. It felt glorious to get my haircut, I won't even lie about that.
I hope you hear soon about your flights. I can feel your anxiety and disappointment. I know we would love to make a trip somewhere, but with our boarder still closed...and honestly, if the numbers everywhere in the US don't at least stabalize, I don't see the boarder opening up before fall.

Very busy but good day at work today. Doc I mention that my huge insurance problem has finally been resolved.

I'm sooooo glad you got that resolved! It must have felt soooo good I'm glad you found a cat sitter. We are putting our senior dog ( who has doggie dementia in a kennel next week when we go out of town, and I"m sooo worried. I took him to the vet on Monday, and other than his dementia, he's in good health. I'm going to worry the whole time we are gone. The kennel knows about his dementia, and feel that they can handle it.

Dear Disney, Please get your....ummm...act together.
Signed,
Everyone

I hope you get that sorted soon

received the results of MRI.....good news and not so bad news...the MRI did not show the fractures that X-ray showed.......great news, but it showed I have bulging disc on multiple levels......
steroids and other meds are doing the job. I have felt better every day. Walking better, sitting longer.

I'm sooo glad you have some answers. That is half the battle. I'm sending lots of healing thoughts to you.

We do have a trip to PCB planned for July and hopefully we will make it ...one of the workers at the pizza place tested positive for Covid and both Danielle and Trey had to be tested this week. The results should be back tomorrow and if either one tests positive the trip is off since it's less than 2 weeks until our vacation. It would also mean that we would have to shut down the restaurant for that time plus we all would have to be in quarantine...

I hope that you get negative results and can have a little break and enjoy your trip! Lord knows many of us are needing to be our happy places

Yay I survived shopping trip with youngest lol! Apparently I have old lady taste but she found a few things at Banana Republic with 40% off.
I think she says things just to make me twitch!
Then we had lunch at Chipotle.

My daughter said the same thing about me lol. I'm glad you got your bathroom back again and that the renovations are done. It is wonderful once they are done, but we always second guess everything in the "during " part. I'm sad your cancelling your trip. We were hoping to have some kind of get away, but with rising numbers and with the boarder still closed, I don't see it happening...especially if we have to quarantine when we get home. I could do it, but the hubby can't be away from his job for that long.

Yeah, my DH is severely allergic to cat dander, and whenever we go to a home that has a cat, most of the time the cat goes to him. I swear they know.

Me too. Cats me. I am like a magnet for them. The instinctively know that I can't touch them. This year seems to be especially bad for pollen. I have been on more allergy meds this year than I have been in a long time. The ds has been to the hospital twice for this asthma. He hasn't had to go since he was 13.

I was happy to see Six Flags Great Adventure is opening in NJ in July. I am watching so I can make reservations for a day or two!!

Yay!!! It might not be the mouse house or universal...but it sounds like fun!!!

gratuitous pic of one of my "babies"-she snuggles right in when you pick her up
Baby Bella

They are sooo cute!!!!! Your situation at work right now, does NOT sound like it is fun or EASY!!!! I hope you get it resolved soon.

Well, I should get myself ready for bed. I love the sunlight, but makes it hard to sleep. I'll be able to sleep again once it's winter and dark all the time . The joys of living in a more northern area

Good night everyone...if I missed you...I'm saying good night to you too! @macraven I hope you make an appearance soon

 

[macraven]

Homies
I‘ve not been posting here the past 7 days as we had a death in our family.

No comments please

 

[schumigirl]

Had a nice long reply typed and it went poof into cyberspace

Thanks for the warm welcome back everyone

Glad to report that Danielle's test came back negative as well as 3 other employees. Trey's results are supposed to come back tomorrow with the rest of the staff.

Monyk...the employee who tested positive only had a headache and loss of taste and smell with no other symptoms.

Janet...I think they had the test with the long swab but I'll have to ask to be sure.

Buckeev...good to hear that your toothache is better. Hope you get your Disney mess straightened out soon.

And where is mac?hope she's okay.

Back to work today with only 5 days this time. It was a nice rainy day with mild temperatures...strange to think that it was hotter at schumi's place than here in GA.

Time for me to get to bed as I have an early start tomorrow.

Good night everyone...sweet dreams

Glad to hear Danielle had a good result, fingers crossed for Trey and the others today! Vicki, I had a relentless cough back in March, no temp or anything like that, but yes, I also lost sense of taste and smell for just over a week. Doc reckons it was a very mild strain I had. Can`t say for sure of course, as I wasn`t bad enough (thankfully) to be in hospital, so no test. Seems many have slightly varying symptoms.

Yes, it`s very rare we are warmer than anyone else!!!! Never mind the warmer states in America......this climate change I would like to stay longer please!!!!

Good to see you........

I thought it was Wednesday when I read your post!!!!! It doesn`t take much to confuse me though.....lol.......

Yes, I am so desperate to get this mop cut now!!! It`s so long, it takes me an age in the morning to straighten it......this morning it`s up in a clip.......yes, I`m sure you loved having your hair done too.

There`s strong talk we may not be flying to America till Nov/Dec this year from the UK. I can see it happening to be honest. but, maybe the border between Canada and the US will open before then.

Yes, we aren`t ever completely pitch black right now. Kyle went out for an hour or so around midnight last night to get some images of Jupiter and Saturn. It`s only planets we see right now and not for very long. No nebulas when it`s so light. By 2.30am it`s so light again. he`s keen for winter too......lol......

I think we all sleep better when it`s dark. Sounds like a lovely trip you have planned next week.......




It is Thursday.....I think!!!!!

The heat was a little stifling last night........there are around 4 days every year we wish aircon was a thing over here.......not in homes sadly. I think we may build our next home from scratch.......and add in Aircon throughout.......waste probably, but for the those 4 days....it`ll be bliss!!!!

Boring breakfast of croissants and fruit......heading out soon to pick up groceries..........again, if there is no line to ge tin the store, we`ll pop in and have a wander round. There`s always something we can pick up.

Then as it is to be scorching here again.....well, scorching for the East Coast of England......it`ll be the garden for us again today......and barbecue food for lunch and dinner too!

I love lazy days.......

​

 

[Lynne G]

Ah yes, a Thursday is upon us, and a Thirsty drinking one too. So,


Ah yes,


Yeah, but either way, drink up with the beverage of your choice, and have one terrific Thursday.

Pumpkin, you get a triple yay, even with having more work to do this week, with boss away. The yays are for not only a next week, short week, but also for niece’s graduation and the biggest yay, getting to see your grandbaby.

Schumi’s getting much warmer weather this start off Summer. We stay warm. even today, as the cold front that arrived yesterday, only brought the humidity down, not the temps. So that cold front was no match for the low weather system heat and wet. So, back to close to 90F, with close to 70 percent humidity. Sticky, yeah, with a 10 percent chance of rain. In other words, steamy hot this afternoon.

Ah, historically, our summers are so hot and icky feeling, many City people have houses outside the City, along the river or down the shore, as they flock to those cooler feeling houses when the Summer heat gets to them. Even colonial City dwellers had out of the City summer homes to escape the heat that feels even hotter with all the City buildings.

Ah, a bright enough day, tea in hand, enjoying a laugh from the funny from Agavegirl and Schumi. And hearing the chickens that have announced they are in their yard. Nice enough day, so enjoy your Thursday, and stay hydrated, the weekend will be here before ya know it.

Hugs to all the homies that need one, along with mummy healing dust to those still not feeling the best. May all be healthy, and oh so happy.

And hope Patty is doing well. Have not heard from her here, in quite awhile.

And Tink, hope Trey gets a negative too, and you’ll be enjoying a vacation soon enough.

 

[Sue M]

Schumi dd has always been picky about clothing but it’s not the label. It’s about the style!
I’m surprised UK isn’t banning too. The numbers are frightening. I saw a map on the news yesterday with stated coloured red, yellow, green from May then June. The speed at which the virus spreads is astonishing. I hope they develope a vaccine soon. I heard one is in 3rd round of trials. Fingers crossed.

Yes you get around much more than we do. I only have a car when I’m in Ft Lauderdale. We never had Uber here at home! Just got it this year but haven’t used it here. We used it in Orlando for Publix trip and Hot & Juicy and worked very well.

I didn’t know it doesn’t get completely dark there now!

Ah, the Apple Store! I shouldn’t be let out alone
My IPad battery was dying. I bought it in 2017. My option was to be given another new one, same model for $120 or I could use their buy back program and upgrade. I think you can guess what I did.

Yay for 80’s and wine!

Lynne sorry! For some reason I thought you were in NY! So you’re in Penn or NJ? So hard to keep track of where everyone is!
Yes travel this year is pretty iffy. I’m sad but believe I made the right decision about Aug trip. Dec trip is still booked but I’m waiting to see how Florida is then. Hopefully numbers will go down by then. We’ll see.
I love both wdw & Universal. Nice to have a choice. But with price I doubt I’ll ever get a wdw AP again. USO AP a much better deal.

Yum for waffles!

Keisha lol. Love the important research! Funny.
Yes! I was reading and my TA told me many are getting fed up with wdw and going to Universal
At this point I’m not sure what my friend will do about tic for our Nov/Dec trip. Doesn’t matter to me about pkg we have our own rooms. But can see that would be a problem for families. I agree it does seem like wdw wants you to cancel!

Robo it sure is a small world. There were so many mix ups with me and sisters-in-law esp as we lived near each other and frequented the same places!
Make sure you do that rest! Good luck with the PT. Hope it gives you some relief.

Bobbie good luck with house staging! Dinner sounds good. Yup I believe everything happens for a reason. Hope Brian finds something soon.

Vicki lol. I was using some of my time online at Apple Store reading Dis!

Monykalyn woot! Panning for gold on July 4! Strike it rich!
Oh poor girls. Are the chickens affected much by the fireworks going off? I hope your pup will be ok. We had one Dog who was very affected poor thing. Many communities have banned them here.
Im all for banning for home use. Some one always gets hurt or property damaged.
I’m so glad one of the things we don’t have to worry about is getting and paying for private health care here.
Oh I heard about that Sahara Dust cloud crossing the Atlantic. Incredible! Don’t think it will make it this far west.
Love the pup pic! Such a funny expression! I had a male lab who had a 6th sense about when we were going to bed. He would sneak off to the bedroom making sure he got there first. Then when we got to the room he’d fake snore. On the bed of course.
Yes I use Stevia and Splenda all the time. I’m diabetic. Just have to stay clear of regular sugars and unrefined carbs.
Awww cute baby Bella!
They are so clever at the Horror Makeup show. Looking forward to seeing it again someday

Congrats to your step daughter! impressive.

Lynne great puzzle. Sometimes I think I’m the only person in the world who isn’t doing a puzzle!

Schumi sounds like a lovely day. And yes as allergies went crazy today. I was fine during the day but I went for dog walk tonight and stepped outside and wow. I started coughing and everything was running. I had to go back into the house and get a lozenge to sooth throat.
Eyes still itchy.

Charade yes those cats do know! So funny. I miss my 2. My youngest dd has a cute black kitty. She’s slowly turning her Fiancé! When they met he was not an animal person at all. I don’t think he had pets growing up.

Buckeev yikes. It seems to be one hot mess. Hope you can get what you need.

Tink don’t you hate when that happens. Ugh. So annoying when it all goes poof.
Glad Danielle’s test came back negative. Hope Treys are too. Such a strange virus.
I don’t think I could do that test with the long swab. So painful. Yet I see on TV some tests done orally. Wonder why they’d put people thru that painful test when there’s easier ones.

Pumpkin enjoy the grand baby visit!
Yes, we may not be getting any vacays for awhile yet. At least not across the border. This will be the first Aug I can remember that we won’t be in Orlando.

Schumi still waiting for summer to arrive here. It’s not cold but rather wet and miserable.
It looks doubtful our border will open anytime soon. Each month they extend closure. I’m wondering now of my Nov/Dec trip will be a go.

This morning on the way to taking oldest dd to bus loop we passed a bad accident the road going down the hill. The accident was on the uphill side. A Jeep upside down. The uphill side was closed.
It’s such a steep hill, called Snake Hill by us locals. Some just blast up that hill and today roads were wet. It isn’t called Snake Hill for nothing.

Did some damage at Apple Store this morning. My bad.
Made curry chicken for dinner. The sun may finally make an appearance tomorrow. Will bbq something. Picked up some corn for tomorrow. Love corn on the cob. It’s imported from California. Too early for our local corn.
Another sleepless night for me. I fell asleep. But it’s the staying asleep yuck. Maybe I’ll be able catch a few winks before I have to get up.

Sue, didn’t mean your daughter was obsessed with labels, it was just a general comment.

 

[Lynne G]

Hey Sue, yeah we happily have homies all over, different countries and locations. I’m in PA., on the opposite side of the state from Keisha. Our state is so long, takes about a 6 hour drive to cross it. Was kinda happy little one did not pick a Pittsburgh school, as I did my undergrad North of Pittsburgh, and I did not get home much, as the drive took most of the day. I live a 5 minute drive from where I grew up. Yep, I am in the area they call the Tri State Area, Easy to get to NJ and DE.

Hello teapot, why yes, more tea for me.

 

[schumigirl]

Ah yes, a Thursday is upon us, and a Thirsty drinking one too. So,

Morning Lynne.......

Tea in hand is always a good way to start the day........we have a lovely breeze today, so not as sticky feeling. We do make the most of it as it isn’t going to last very long. We already have weather warnings for heavy downpours and thunder from tomorrow.....

It is the reason we make the most of it when we can in the UK. Have a great day.......and enjoy that extra tea!!!




Popped back on as I realised I hadn’t replied to a pm someone had sent me a week or so ago.....oops.....was checking my emails there and discovered it! Not sure how I missed it.......

Then, lunch is spicy maple pork skewers with some spicy cous cous.......will make a load and have it with dinner too.

Then back outside for a day of lazing.......not as warm as yesterday and maybe have to put up the wind shield we have for the gazebo.....or maybe not.

Didn‘t get into the grocery store today as there was a line of around 30 waiting to get in. We didn’t really need to, but if there’s no line we would go in. Left after we picked up the groceries and popped into the village store for a few local items......

Now I’m hungry.....and it’s only just midday.....

 

[Lynne G]

Yeah, Schumi, if we saw too long a line to get in, we didn’t need to go in anyway. Was happy, the grocery store we went to last night, was almost empty. Was nice to get the few things we like from that store, and no line to check out either. Sweet. Yeah, I eat breakfast so early, I get hungry later in the morning too. Afternoon for you now, so hope you are enjoying some tea in your garden.

Sun streaming into window.

 

[Charade67]

Good morning. I woke up way too early today, but I'm now packed for our trip and still have a few minutes to post.

Little one wants fire, as s’mores are on her mind.

Yum! I haven't had a s'more in a long time.

Glad to report that Danielle's test came back negative as well as 3 other employees. Trey's results are supposed to come back tomorrow with the rest of the staff.

Great news. Hoping Trey's is negative too.

That's alright, next week is a short week for me as we are going to visit our bil and my family to celebrate the dh's neice's graduation. Another chance to see the grandbaby, and visit with my family who I don't get to see often. I haven't seen them since last June when our ds graduated and the dd wedding.

Hope you have a wonderful visit.

Did some damage at Apple Store this morning.

I guess it is a good thing that we live 2 hours from the nearest Apple store. Our new laptop should be here at the beginning of July.

Don't remember if I mentioned this or not. A few years ago B became interested in the music of a group called Celtic Woman. We saw then in concert when they came to Roanoke. She later discovered a similar male group called Celtic Thunder. She has asked to see them in concert, so I told her that if they came close enough we could go. She never forgets a promise, so we now have tickets to see Celtic Thunder in Roanoke in December.

Guess i should get to work. Boss won't be in today, so maybe I will have a slow day.

 

[Lynne G]

Safe travels and enjoy your weekend get away, Charade. I have heard of Celtic Thunder, but not Celtic Woman. Nice of you to get B. tickets. Crossing fingers office is quiet today.

 

[Sue M]

Sue, didn’t mean your daughter was obsessed with labels, it was just a general comment.

thats ok! My older daughter makes up for it. Lol! I can’t win. Younger one so picky about type of style that suits her taste, and older one I guess has more similar taste in clothing style to me but has been known to be label conscious I’m doomed.

Hey Sue, yeah we happily have homies all over, different countries and locations. I’m in PA., on the opposite side of the state from Keisha. Our state is so long, takes about a 6 hour drive to cross it.

Hello teapot, why yes, more tea for me.

I had to look at a map lol. I’ve been to Penn but not living there you forget just how large it is! Hope you enjoyed your tea. It’s almost 7am for me, time for coffee!

Morning Lynne.......

Tea in hand is always a good way to start the day........we have a lovely breeze today, so not as sticky feeling. We do make the most of it as it isn’t going to last very long. We already have weather warnings for heavy downpours and thunder from tomorrow.....

It is the reason we make the most of it when we can in the UK. Have a great day.......and enjoy that extra tea!!!




Popped back on as I realised I hadn’t replied to a pm someone had sent me a week or so ago.....oops.....was checking my emails there and discovered it! Not sure how I missed it.......

Then, lunch is spicy maple pork skewers with some spicy cous cous.......will make a load and have it with dinner too.

Then back outside for a day of lazing.......not as warm as yesterday and maybe have to put up the wind shield we have for the gazebo.....or maybe not.

Didn‘t get into the grocery store today as there was a line of around 30 waiting to get in. We didn’t really need to, but if there’s no line we would go in. Left after we picked up the groceries and popped into the village store for a few local items......

Now I’m hungry.....and it’s only just midday.....

Supposed to get up to low 70s today and sun should make an appearance. Tomorrow the rain comes back mid afternoon if weather report is to be believed.
I better make the most of it while it’s nice.
Your lunch sounds delish.

Good morning. I woke up way too early today, but I'm now packed for our trip and still have a few minutes to post.

Yum! I haven't had a s'more in a long time.

Great news. Hoping Trey's is negative too.

Hope you have a wonderful visit.

I guess it is a good thing that we live 2 hours from the nearest Apple store. Our new laptop should be here at the beginning of July.

Don't remember if I mentioned this or not. A few years ago B became interested in the music of a group called Celtic Woman. We saw then in concert when they came to Roanoke. She later discovered a similar male group called Celtic Thunder. She has asked to see them in concert, so I told her that if they came close enough we could go. She never forgets a promise, so we now have tickets to see Celtic Thunder in Roanoke in December.

Guess i should get to work. Boss won't be in today, so maybe I will have a slow day.

I‘ve seen Celtic Thunder on TV, easy to look at lol. Have a good day at work!


Daughter finished first day at new job, got her office, set up computer etc all the first day stuff. Apparently she’ll have training for a week, then will take all the stuff home and work from home until they recall everyone back to the office. She says they have weekly Zoom office meetings. So hard when starting a new job I think to have to work from home. Especially since they’re in a 1 bedroom so no place except dining table to set up her home office.

Waiting for the promised sunshine. It’s pretty socked in right now but it’s early. Hopefully will burn off.

For me it's a tie between that one and The Empty Child.

I am completely done with 2020. What else could go wrong. I was picking up lunch today when dh called and said that he was driving home from dropping B off at a rehearsal when he starting having chest pains. He went to urgent care who sent him to the ER.
I had to go pick up B, and then realized my car was almost on empty. I had to find a gas station in a part of town that I am unfamiliar with. I made a quick trip back to my office to put everything away and then went home since we are not allowed in the ER.
Dh called when I got home and then the doctor came in too talk to him, so I got to listen in. They have ruled out a heart attack, but are running more tests. DH asked the doctor if we should cancel our weekend plans, and the doc said that we should revisit that in a couple of hours when the test results are in. So now I sit at home waiting for news. I told B that I was going to wrap her up in bubble wrap.

Oh no Charade sending prayers and much mummy dust out to you.

Aww Charade, I hope all is well with DH. Sending very good thoughts his way. Could he be dehydrated? I know from a cousin who worked in the ER for years, a chest pain complaint is addressed very fast.
