Good morning NOTHING friends. Glad to see you had another fun night. Funny thing about the challenge. You both think you have dates picked out but sometimes things happen to change those plans so anyone could win life is kind of funny like that.

My only goal is to get there before Abby.. Hopefully NOTHING life has planned for me will interfere with that.

No Bet NOTHING Peace,:boxing2: Let’s get this straight, today please. We need the “Bet” to be Quarterized and Notarized. No daylight in the end result and a way to hold the proceedings from the wager. I would do it but my parole officer said no.:1rotfl::faint:

NOTHING but a weeks vacation on the island with Maryann or in Abby's case the Professor or Gilligan her choice.

Probably not Gilligan. From what I understand from previous NOTHING posts he would rather be with K on the island than me. Somehow I don't think Gilligan would be on K's list though.

I'm thinking someone (K) should owe someone else (me) at least a very nice dinner when they finally get here. Spouses included, of course. We don't want any rumors developing in NOTHINGVILLE.

Didn't get to spend as much time as I would have liked in the most northern part of TV today, but enjoyed what i did get to see. As my cousin said it is an often times forgotten gem. With the new builds going up around there, and some beautiful lake views I can see the value it offers. Of course the Orange Blossom pool is beautiful! NOTHING but a fun adventure.

Although I have to say, K's adventure sounds like NOTHING but spectacular. Try going over THAT bridge with a golf cart, Nucky!

Nucky will be NOTHING but delighted that you enjoyed your time in the Historic section. It is quite nice and a very convenient location right on 441 and near Spanish Springs.

I have a list longer than my arm of women I'd rather spend a week on an Island with before Mary Ann. She means NOTHING to me..

Google Deception pass and Deception pass bridge.. It was NOTHING but a nice drive. Too bad it was for work..

Kenswing 07-17-2018 05:48 PM

And I can't tell you how relieved I was to see NOTHING still chugging along when I got home..

Going over The Big Bridge is a little nerve-wracking the first 500 times but it gets easier. Once you expect someone to be in your lane then it's not so bad.

I just hope that nobody ends up with Mr. Howell III on the Island as rumor has it that it wood b a great disappointment. He hasn't had any wind in his Coconut Tree in years.
He is the only one who is not suspect in The Great Mary Ann Debacle of 2018. We think we have it down to a person on TOTV'S. He is a mild-mannered all around good guy who is an Angel helping out his parent in The Villages at their home. The DNA test is due back on Friday. He is a smart dude. Please, no guessing until next we get the test result's. Peace Out! The babies first words are either WILLLSSSOONNN or Unga Bunga Bunga and a Bunga Bunga Binga BangedHer! It would be a big NOTHING.

That is God's country. That is like New England beautiful in the summer, mountains, ocean, quaint towns but nasty in the winter if you don't like cold and snow. NOTHING but Florida for me.

I think all the NOTHING members have mastered chill.

This meal costs practically nothing. At Aldi's buy a bag of Priano Pipe Regate. imported pasta shells. cook 1/2 bag according to instructions. For the broth I used 3 bouillon cubes a cup and a half of water, 1 carrot cut in quarters and 2 in pieces, 1/2 onion, 1/2 can red kidney beans and 4 baby portabella mushrooms. Boil the veggies in the broth and add 1 T vinegar, 1 T soy sauce, 1 t hot sauce. I take some of the kidney beans 3 T and smash them with a fork on a cutting board to make the broth thicker. Before serving toss for a little while. The beans find there way in side the shells. That makes enough for 3 servings. [it tastes just as good at room temperature]

That sounds NOTHING but delicious. I will definitely try it.

Mr & Mrs Howell are NOTHING but living in The Villages now. Really......I saw the sign on their house on my walk the other night.

When I get home I think I'll just forget about my own recipes and just pull up yours on my tablet and NOTHING but take my meal planning in a new direction. :thumbup:

Nope, still in TV. I had said my last full day was today, but really I have the good part of tomorrow here as well. Not doing much though except packing up to go and I'll probably surprise my cousin by cleaning her house while she goes to work all day. We got a lot done while I was here but she's got a lot going on with her business on top of moving.

My flight doesn't leave until tomorrow night at 11:15. I don't think my husband is real thrilled about picking me up at 1:30 in the morning. I hope he doesn't pull a K or a Nucky on me by telling me to get a hotel and he'll pick me up at a more reasonable hour. If he does, I'll be NOTHING but hopping on the next plane back to Orlando.

Abby10 07-17-2018 10:29 PM

What has happened in NOTHINGVILLE? Am I NOTHING but the last one up tonight? Does this mean I have to do the closing statement? Things have really been turned upside down in NOTHINGVILLE if the Den Mother is the last one to turn in for the night. :sigh:

Sorry, didn't mean to abandon you. Sat down on the couch to read the mail and the next thing I know it's NOTHING but 8:00.. Mrs. K woke me up to ask if I wanted dinner.. lol

Maybe you knew something I didn't know when you posted this. I just went online to check in for my flight tomorrow and saw that they got NOTHING but slammed with storms in the mid-Atlantic earlier today - airports up there closed for 2-5 hours. Heard there were several water rescues in a town not far from mine. Sounds like NOTHING but a fun day tomorrow......

Not surprised - you had NOTHING but an early morning and a long day.

Yeah, I saw the news earlier and it looked NOTHING but miserable back east..

And I knew you weren't heading back until tomorrow. I just figured since my Tuesday was over it must be Wednesday.. lol

Have a good rest of your night, K. I'm tempted to stay up and see if we can make it to post #5000, but my body is saying NOTHING doing. :wave:

It is NOTHING but crazy up north. All of the people who say they are afraid of the hurricanes down here are getting hit just as hard and come winter they will have blizzards too.

Thanks for the pleasant thoughts and bleak prediction of my future......lol. But I know what you are saying. Weather patterns,especially in the last 5+ years, have been such that it is pretty much as you say. Having spent a full month of August down here and now these past 2 weeks, for the life of me I don't know why people complain.

Suffice it to say, it's another beautiful day in The Villages. It is Wednesday, July 18th - not a day I've been particularly looking forward to.

There are people (and I know some of them) who actually enjoy the cold and snow crazy as that sounds. I guess it is a good thing though or everyone would want to be here. I think the weather is perfect year round and don't even mind the storms except for how they scare my poor dog since he is NOTHING but terrified.

I'm NOTHING but surprised that fw let this one slip by........wonder how many NOTHINGS I'm allowed to forget before the Kommander says I'm fired? Well, I guess as long as I continue to trail Nucky, I still have a NOTHING left to stand on.

:welcome: krash. Well, you did NOTHING but sneak right in there before my post to rack up #5000. You certainly deserve to be the winner for that move! Sorry to say the prize is, as you might have guessed, NOTHING!
