Sadly my movie spree is over. I would go to the movies once a year which is close to nothing. I went 50 times in the last few months. I have options but none of them are very good.

Speaking of movies, did you see the Mr. Rogers one? I can't remember if you responded in that thread or not. I just saw it tonight. It was really good. I can see why some people said they cried - NOTHING but touching at times.

Whew. I had to get through a lot of religious stuff to get to this but it was NOTHING but worth it.

Hey, maybe I could baffle the powers that be there and call in a NOTHING emergency and get him here early. Nah, too many people need him way more than NOTHING.

Don't worry, K, do what you have to do. We'll always be here for ya. Just remember though, the lights may be on when you get home but NOTHING may be happening. We're wearing ourselves out here - lol
You guys were certainly on NOTHING but a roll today.

It rained some on the fire today. But only enough to keep our back burning from being effective. Tomorrow is another day.

Thanks for keeping NOTHING going strong everyone.

Yeah, sorry to the convert for all the Catholic bashing. It actually started on another thread and was carried over to here. I'm trying to steer NOTHING in another direction with Mr Rogers. Much tamer subject.

So how was your day? What's going on out there? You don't seem to have much downtime this time around......long days for you.

Ugh.....that's NOTHING but frustrating.

Yeah, fw and tomwed have been great today - really entertaining. Fw will be busy until at least Wednesday with her grandson so not sure how much she will be around. I was surprised she got in so much time today with preparing for their arrival. Hopefully Nucky will be with us in a day or 2 to pick up some of the slack. Otherwise, you may hear NOTHING but tomwed and I telling stories and talking about movies.

I did. I didn't appreciate his genius until I saw that movie. Seseme Street came on after Mr Rogers in my house and that had all the bells and whistles and celebrity guests. I couldn't understand why Mr. rogers looked like it was made in a third world country. He had a vision and nothing was too difficult to explain, divorce, assassination, racism. It's timeless and if you are member of amazon you can watch every episode. So if you got little ones in the family........

They’re trying to get this thing wrapped up before a new incident management team comes in. They seem to think longer days will accomplish that. Me, not so much.

And here I thought I was keeping you busy with my responses to your posts so you wouldn't see that.

NOTHING gets by you. Even after all those hours on the job, you're still sharp as ever!

My husband and I said the same thing. Obviously I knew NOTHING because I always thought it was kind of a dorky show. I had no idea he covered current issues of the day like that. When I was in college I lived right down the street from him and had friends who knew him and his wife very well and even vacationed with them. So through them, I came to know what a wonderful man he was but never had the pleasure of meeting him myself. Still this movie was very revealing to me about how great a man he really was. Glad we watched it.

Thanks for the info about amazon. I was wondering about that, actually even for myself let alone the little ones. His messages to me seemed both timeless and ageless.
