Something About Nothing ... #12

[Lynne G]

No fond memory of AirTran from me. Our trip from NYC to Greece, and they ran out of fuel in return flight, so we sat on the tarmac in Iceland, and were not allowed off the increasing warm plane for almost 4 hours, as it had been in summer. That was almost 30 years ago.

We had fun in the Macy’s.


And saw the 9,000 show of the Lion King, one of the longest running shows, 22 years so far. Packed house.

Charade sounds like a fun day planned, I hope you & Ian enjoy it You’re even getting emails on holiday from the therapists sheesh. What part of vacation don’t they understand?

Mac good to hear from you!

Lynne sounds like a good day! Nice pics. We loved Lion King when it came here. I may have teared up a bit when the song came on.

goND hello!

Bobbie you’ll be having a busy week! Grad, party, cats.... congrats to Liv. Very exciting time for her. And it is a transition for us! My daughter was in so many things at school- band, ski/snowboard race team, rugby, it seemed like I was always there or taking her somewhere. I went for a walk tonight with my friend who’s daughter is same age as my oldest, and we were saying that it’s hard to believe they’re both 34 now! And youngest is 29! Don’t know how that happened!
When we had cats I got their litter at Costco too. Love the Kirkland brands, always good quality. Esp the generic Kirkland Tylenol, Advil, etc are great deals. Almost a 50% savings.
I’m lucky my good friend up the street sews well! She takes pity on my if I need something.
I hope you get good news for your kitty from the vet. I was at the vet today too. $300+ later one dog needed his vaccinations. The other a check up and blood work. She was really ill last fall. Had an Auto immune problem. We don’t know what caused it all of a sudden. So vet recommended we don’t give her vaccines right now. And maybe not for a year or 2. He is afraid to trigger her auto immune response. He feels she’s low risk for contracting a disease as she doesn’t go to dog parks, or doggy daycare. And the risk is greater to trigger the auto immune response.

Keishashadow nope! I never flew Air Tran. Don’t know if they had many flights from Pacific NW. SW doesn’t have much here either. A few out of SeaTac.
Yep, antibiotics can be hard on the stomach. Yuck. Hope you’re eatting yogurt.
And hope they’re helping.
Why did the US stop all cruises to Cuba? I haven’t heard anything up here. I hope it doesn’t mess up Monykalyn’s plans. How awful.

Robo thinking of you and your family.

Mac, so easy to over eat at a Mexican restaurant. That was me at lunch yesterday And those house made chips & salsa they served before meal, yum. Couldn’t stop!

Hope everyone has (or had) a good night. It’s 9pm here. This morning went to church briefly to help out before Vet appt. then went to mall. Had to get a new wall phone for kitchen. I like to have one phone that’s hard wired incase of power out. One year we had a bad wind storm that knocked out power for 4 days. So cordless phones don’t work, and couldn’t charge cell phone.

Tomorrow I want to wash dining room drapes. Friday is hair salon day, yay! Much needed. My fringe is so long it’s driving me batty. I think it’s going to be a quiet weekend. And sun will be returning! Yay.
Oh yes, bought my DL tix today thru Undercover Tourist. $30 saving from gate price. Got 5 Day hopper w/Max Pass.

Sue, I ate too much at the mexican restaurant (as usual)
The chips and salsa about filled me up as we had a third basket of it.....and then we ordered our meals...

Still stuffed so sitting up another 30 minutes and get rid of this beached whale feeling I have.

You wash your drapes?
Do you hire out?
I could fly you to GA........

Hope your dogs are doing fine after the vet visit.
Good idea the vet had and not do the vaccine on your doggy with the autoimmune problem.
Hopefully he/she will improve and do well without the vaccinations.
I hear you on the vet bills.
It's like raising kids all over again with medical visits, shots, check ups..

All my life I have always fretted over either my kids or my cat...
Both hated shots

We don't have a land line in the house, just our iphones.
Been lucky and have not had any power outages since we moved South.
Hope I haven't jinxed myself for saying that.....

Good evening everyone. Busy day today. We did the WB studio tour. It was fun, but heavily Friends centered. They had some cool Harry Potter, Batman, and other DC stuff. We didn’t think we had enough time for the observatory today, so went to Madame Tussaud’s instead. Went to Hard Rock for supper and met dh’s newly discovered niece. She had some interesting stuff to tell us about her birth family. B is exhausted and has already gone to bed.

A few pictures from today

I don’t know why some are sideways, but I am too tired to fix it
Tomorrow we are going to go see Aladdin.

 

[Sue M]

Mac, love mex food. I had the enchiladas, rice & beans. So filling. We just had the one basket of chips thankfully! It was just me & DD.

Hmmm, for a visit to Georgia I may hire out lol! I’m not going crazy, just doing one window! I get the Mr to get them down for me. Then put them back up.

Yes, our fur babies are family. And we fuss over them just like our kids!

Mr & I talked about dropping the land line. But I’m afraid to. I just need that extra safety net I guess. And it doesn’t cost much to keep.

 

[Sue M]

Charade thanks for the pics! Love the one in front of Bugs Bunny & Daffy Duck! Always watched them. Wish they had good cartoons on now!

 

[macraven]

Charade, thanks for checking in with us and sharing the pictures.
Started to think what is she doing up at 1:15 am then remembered, i'm on est and she is on pst......duh..

 

[Lynne G]

Good morning! It is a Thursday, and a what are we going to do day. Total of 12 miles of walking yesterday, the phone said. Ack, I do not think we walked that much.

Show was great, the costumes were awesome, and a pretty theatre. Weather was fabulous, almost too hot, but not, and 78 at 10 last night.

Sue, yep like Costco and the Kirkland brand items. Glad you got what you needed there. And I hear ya, pets’ bills can be pricey.

Charade, sounded like a fun tour, and great pictures.

Mac, hope you are feeling better today.

Keisha, hope you are getting relief from those antibiotics you are taking. Yeah, interestingly about no more Cuba. I remember seeing cruises advertising Cuba in their cruises, some being the only port. I feel sorry for those who thought they were porting in Cuba. The cruises I booked do not have a Cuba stop on their itineraries.

Eh, I woke up, said clock, 4:30am. Yeah, I do not need an alarm. Guess I will wake little one around 1/2 hour from now. Free breakfast, so I told her we should go down to breakfast, and see what they have. Little one is not a breakfast foods fan, so I am hoping she finds enough food to eat.

Later homies, and yum. I too can eat my share of chips and salsa. I too like Mexican food.

Oh, and we did get a street view, high floor, room. Not much to see as to nice buildings, but nice to see from up high down the road.

 

[PoohIsHome]

Morning, homies!

There are many things I miss about living in Newport News....Costco is right up there at the top of the list.

Definitely interesting about no more travel into Cuba. Weird times, indeed.

Charade sounds like a wonderful time so far. Hope Ian is having a great time! LOL!

Lynne, I saw Lion King several years ago and I'm still in awe....the costuming alone was jaw dropping. Hmmm....now I'm itching for another trip back to NYC!

Mac, hope you continue to feel better every day!!

Keisha, I feel you on the antibiotics ick. I had walking pneumonia right after Christmas that took two rounds of antibiotics.....took me forever to get my stomach sorted out!

Hope everyone has a great Thursday! Meeting my parents for and early lunch then going to do my shopping for the big family cookout this weekend. I keep telling myself I'm not going to go overboard and fix way too much food.....but I know me. It should be a great time. It's a big cookout/reunion for my Dad's side of the family. We have to be at our local community college at 5:30 this evening with Corey for orientation for the governors school program that he's doing this summer. Now that I type it all out....it's going to be a busy day!

Mexican food.....yeah, it's a food group in this house.

Morning Sans family











Need to get this body moving today.

Get well wishes to Keisha and Mac. Hope you feel better soon.

Charade and Lynne thank you for the pictures from your vacation. Sounds like you are all having a great time.

Mac I like the chips and salsa when we go out to local Mexican restaurant. They are hard to resist.

I need to start doing the multi quoting like the pros here.
Robo does a great job in covering everyone that has posted.

Thanks Mac, I was on the desk top yesterday.....it’s so much easier doing multi quotes that way for me.

Just read US pulled the plug on all cruises sailing to cuba effective 6/3.

Like the rest of the Sans family I hope this does not affect Monykalyn and family. Maybe since the cruise is underway already they might be able to slide thru.

Robo thinking of you and your family.

Thank you Sue.

Hope everyone has a great Thursday! Meeting my parents for and early lunch then going to do my shopping for the big family cookout this weekend

Wishing you a nice lunch with your parents Pooh and a successful shopping trip.

 

[Charade67]

ugh! I was halfway through a long post and somehow managed to delete it. I think I will just give quick updates while I am here and will do a real post after I get home and have my desktop. Posting on the phone is such a pain.

Wandered around taking pictures, then a lovely lunch at Sacks on Fifth’s cafe. Beautiful room, excellent service.

Hope all are doing well. Thirsty are we. Drank several glasses of water at lunch.

Dino in Central Park,

Little one’s picture from our sky high view.

Glad you got in safely, and enjoying this warm NYC weather, Schumi. Dinner sounded lush, and so nice with family.

 

[Lynne G]

Dark out now, still warm, and crowds at Times Square. Now chilling with a treat from Carlos Bakery. Yum from the Cake Boss’s store. Dinner was at Morton’s, and we cleaned our plates.

Total walking today, 14.1 miles. As lady said to guy advertising ride in horse drawn carriage stepping into her path, I have legs. Said in such a way, had little one and I laughing.
