Something About Nothing............ #14

[schumigirl]

Football is one of those things that makes dealing with Fall/cooler weather bearable

The Universal invasion has begun, locals...run for your lives.

Waiting to hear if the houses will be offered for next weekend. Trying not to get ahead of myself


Aw that’s very thoughtful. Did a double take today, nearby town had an abandoned house discovered to hold 73 live cats. Rescue has asked for help to defray all the costs of rehoming. Nice to hear they have been answered even in these trying times.

Pretty sure I’ve never tried it despite spending my share of time there lol. I’ll take your word for it.

Oh I`m sure you`ll manage it Janet.....looking forward to hearing your opinions on them.......your countdown is so close too........

A light for everyone heading to Universal.

Perfect light Charade.......

Did I get a good view room? Though a very long walk from start:

And no, I am not upside down. May hit some food on first floor, as hungry. Ends at 10pm, so I should get going.

Nice view Lynne......hope you got some good food.......





Monday again........Kyle has a day off today, using up his yearly vacation time, think he has most Mondays off now till the end of the year, except one or two he has meetings planned. So, we`re all heading out this morning to drive some cars for fun.......

Weather is glorious, if a little chilly.......but as long as the sun is shining, it`s all good.

Think we`ll have some lunch out today, so dinner will be a light one whatever it is.

Happy Monday.....................

Good Morning. Up around 5:30, wonder why? Hehe. Quiet screen reading, then took shower, nice. Though why some of my pictures post upside down, who knows. Just turn your device around for a minute. LoL

Slept very well, and thinking of some Volcano viewing, then dinner in SW. Windy sounding out.


And we are sideways. Lucky you, turn your device sideways, Lol. Climbing so much higher than the cloud cover. Flight was uneventful, though I don’t remember flying so high, we cruised at 40,000 feet. Most seem to wear mask right, some kids on flight, other than smelling some dirty diapers, that were remedied, they were mostly quiet, and flight was a few less than half full, even having come from somewhere else. Only saw a few get off before we got on. Guess I should be thankful the flight was not canceled. And yes, we were asked to sit to help balance. And while my City gets a you take forever to get your bag, I have always had bad luck in Orlando. Last night, second to last bag to come out, thank you. Sigh. Only good thing, it was an Orlando crew, and we arrived 20 minutes early. Rental was busy, but walked into garage, picked my car, and off I went. Very quick to hotel, and was glad to see the 528 from the airport had open express lanes to I4. Zippy I was.

Last night, was going to go to City Walk for some food, but decided, the quick service in hotel was better idea, and it was fine. Very nice people and a good sandwich was freshly made. Hit the spot.

DisneyLife, I have some Halloween treats for your kids. Hopefully we can meet up before you leave.

With that, making some coffee, and getting into some of the snacks I bought. Also have the little bags of pretzels and cookies, from the plane. Was not going to take off my mask to eat then or drink the cup of water they offered. Just watched the free tv on my phone. It is not a long flight.

Schumi, have fun driving the cars, as we saw so many with tops down, and some cool looking cars, this weekend. Full sunny, clear, but cool day, yep, car rides needed.

Julie, hope good news for her today, with that financial visit, and enjoy Christmas shopping. Yep, it will be Christmas in less than 100 days.

And so, I hope all the homies are going to have that marvelous Monday.

Quick Good Morning to everyone!!!

 

[Lynne G]

Did you walk all the way, DisneyLife?

 

[macraven]

We never did get the rain that was predicted for us
Good!!

Our temps are very comfortable now but still have the ac on just in case

Have had a busy morning or would have checked in here earlier

For the homies at the Darkside now, enjoy your day at the parks!

I’m waiting for my postcard......lol

 

[Lynne G]

Looks like you were having fun

 

[schumigirl]

Nice pictures Lynne, yes looks like a lot of fun......enjoy the rest of your trip........



Had the best day!

Weather is glorious, sun has been shining and it was so warm. Started the day off driving a similar car to the one is Kyle has ordered that`ll be here in November hopefully, but, they didn`t have a demonstrator when he ordered it, but got one in for us today. He is going to love it, same Mercedes he has now, but much more powerful engine........then we had lunch out and ate outside overlooking the sea, yes, it was that warm. Lovely lunch then Kyle said it had been a long time since we had went for a walk, so we walked along the beach for almost two hours. Gorgeous day with our boy and a lovely lunch. Perfect......

Still warm now, sat out for a while when we got back, but come in now.....no need to cook after lunch out, will snack later.

Having a pot of tea now.......

Sounds like a really nice day!!! Always nice when our adult "kids" want to hang with us. I know I enjoy every minute Lindsey spends with us

It`s so true.....we also cherish the time we spend just the three of us, well anytime really..........I know you`re the same with Lindsey......we just laughed and chatted so much, with work and his social life and gf, spending a whole day is rare now outside of America.........I know Lindsey is so busy too.....so we make the most of it....

Tom just asked me if I wanted a gin and lemonade.......can`t decide which flavour to choose Lori.......lol.....decisions!!

 

[macraven]

Tell Tom company is coming and Mac wants one also

 

[macraven]

We still have the ac on but have the door to the attached sunroom open so the cats can go back and forth.

It’s not blazing hot outside and so nice our temps dropped down.

It will become warmer tomorrow for us.

J’amie, do you have any upcoming plans for the Darkside?

lol.....we went with pink gin......no lime for mac (think I got that right)

Your weather is glorious mac......however nice we get it, yours is always far better! And warmer again tomorrow.....lovely. Think we are the same, nice tomorrow but then it changes after that......I think we have to expect rain and much cooler temps......



Anyone watched Ratched on Netflix?

I never saw One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest, but this is the back story of the nurse in that, which I had heard of.

Made from the folks who make American Horror Story.....and some of the cast are in it too, the wonderful Sarah Paulson.......I wasn`t sure at first, but it`s weirdly watchable.

 

[Lynne G]

Keisha, Shark menu for you:

Will let you know how I like it.

 

[macraven]

I always watch AHS each season
Quite enjoy it!

We don’t get Netflix so I only know about it based on what peeps post

We don’t do the pay subscriptions channels so I’m
not familiar on their shows.

 

[Realfoodfans]

Enjoying your photographs!

So warm here today it was a shame to be at the shops but by coincidence when we went for a coffee we bumped into friends of mine which was lovely - so that coffee break was extended to catch up with them.

Em got winter boots but no thermals anywhere yet for when she is on playground duty in colder weather so we will look online.

Only got a few bits but it was nice to have time together on our own - just hasn’t been possible for a long time.

So evening here now and time for some tv before early night as early start for school run in the morning.

I enjoyed most AHS, this isn`t just as good, but you can see a few similarities. They use the music from North by Northwest, Vertigo and another Hitchcock movie....it felt very familiar.....it has a very good cast, I think you`d like it. It`s beautifully filmed.

Hey all, i took a detour on the way home this morning & got off on the turnpike exit that has a chick-fil-a. After waiting in line for 20 min at drive thru realized they were only serving breakfast. Took that as a sign to hit one of the nearby outlets & double back to grab lunch for me & the youngest DS. He was thrilled with that surprise i dropped off. Will package up the turkey soup that is simmering and drop it off to him and eldest DS on way to softball game. Figure i’ll Sleep good tonight

Yepper, you did, congrats. Did you book a poolview or get comped an upgrade?

Putting that pedal to the metal, vrooooom

Slept very well, and thinking of some Volcano viewing,

Haha only on this board does nobody bat at eye at that remark

Rental was busy, but walked into garage, picked my car, and off I went

Was the aisle nicely stocked?

Last night, was going to go to City Walk for some food, but decided, the quick service in hotel was better idea, and it was fine. Very nice people and a good sandwich was freshly made. Hit the spot.

Not once in all my visits have I ever eaten there. Line always so long. How is social distancing?

Thanks for posting the menu. When i looked at it earlier could’ve sworn it had cheesecake on it. Let me know what you wind up ordering, i’m Stumped on the appetizer. Nothing speaking to me.

Tom just asked me if I wanted a gin and lemonade.......can`t decide which flavour to choose Lori.......lol.....decisions!!

I’ve spiked a lot of lemonade overr the years, never with gin. What did you settle upon?

Tell Tom company is coming and Mac wants one also

Says the woman who “made” me drink a whole pitcher of strawberry/vodka lemonaide by myself at Millers last year pre HHN Waste not want not

I always watch AHS each season

I was so disappointed in last season. Started out fun with the 80’s theme but just tanked for me.

Keisha:? Comped upgrade! Yay for me being a HR member.

Okay meal, I have had better filets that I had, but a lovely 3 course meal. After two large toasted coconut covered strips of chicken, with mango dip that did make my nose run. Then 8 ounce filet, a little too rare for my medium rare request. With not well cooked carrot sticks and a small broccoli stem, but hot temp potatoes were so good. Next up, Key Lime, like this:

Savings, about 20 dollars.
