Not unless you're looking for NOTHING but a divorce.

Not for NOTHING, but I may get in trouble on that thread before the night is over. Hopefully I exercise some self-control tonight and avoid it.

At least it is not a dog poop thread that is pacing out the NOTHING thread.

Whenever I ask her what she wants she tells me NOTHING. How could I possibly get in trouble for getting her what she wants?

Come on. Go for it. NOTHING like living on the wild side every once in awhile..

Abby10 09-24-2018 06:29 PM

So I'm not home yet, but a Pollyanna is when you put names in a hat and each person picks one and whoever you get is who you buy a present for. Some large families do it as well as workplaces. It makes so that instead of buying a bunch of NOTHING gifts for everyone, you can use your money to buy one nice gift for just one person. Does that make sense?

I brought it up to be funny but I guess the jokes on me if no one even knows what I was talking about.

NOTHING but a total waste of time. What good will it do?

A whole lot has been said already on there with making almost no impact on the OP. Or next to NOTHING.

You can't even state something that has happened to you without a bunch of people telling you how it couldn't have happened. NOTHING is indeed all that really matters.

When my husband decided to get me NOTHING, he got NOTHING in return. So I'd suggest you think about that.

Nope, not going there. My luck has been NOTHING but bad lately. I've been in 2 stores in the past 2 days and incidents have happened in both where I have been caught up in the middle. I don't need to actually look for trouble, it comes to me. People are just plain crazy out there........

And don't remind me about the common denominator - I did NOTHING!

Kenswing 09-24-2018 10:38 PM

NOTHING pooped out early tonight.. lol

You mean you did, the rest of us were around. Except, Nucky, where is that little NOTHING rascal?

fw102807 09-25-2018 06:15 AM

Just out of curiosity how many NOTHINGS got banished to the island? Yes I have been thinking of W again :sigh:

Abby10 09-25-2018 06:16 AM

Yes, I was up at 2am. Yes, I'm the first one up this morning. Yes, K, you were on a roll of being funny yesterday with fw as your sidekick. The 2 of you keep perfecting it and maybe you can make more than NOTHING down the road. I'm sure TOTV and TV in general will continue to provide you with more ammunition - no worries there. Better to laugh about it than to allow it to frustrate you. Wonder where our main attraction, Nucky, was yesterday? I think he may have been out padding the post count on other threads. It's always a nice thing to help others in any way we can. And glad to see tomwed check in. Thanks to him we have a great idea for our NOTHING party this year. Should we give him a break and tell him he doesn't have to cook for the party? Heck, fw, it should be a snap for you and I to handle since we'll just be serving up a bunch of NOTHING anyway.

Well, today is Tuesday, September 25th. Got a lot to do to get ready to leave on Thursday. I'll be checking in though - you can't get rid of me that easy. :icon_wink:

Ha! You beat me by a minute. So to answer your question, I can only think of 2. W and Big Al. What a pair those 2 made. Polar opposites in many ways but a heck of a comedy duo - albeit at times NOTHING but R rated which is why they were banned from performances until after 10pm when all decent people are usually in bed...lol

Do you suppose W had the power to burn his image into our brains and did so before he left? Darn, he's hard to forget!

I think of him every time I see a road runner of any kind. My husband is a big cartoon fan and that was one of his favorites. W left kind of a NOTHING void especially at night.

Abby10 09-25-2018 07:38 AM

I must be getting old. Everything seems to irritate me except NOTHING.......so thanks for NOTHING, guys, you really are the best!

That is why I try to stay out of everything but NOTHING but we all slide sometimes. I do try however not to beat any dead horses.

I would give all my NOTHING to have the patience and demeanor of some on this thread, but I guess we are all different in some way or another and that's what makes life more interesting. My husband's life would probably be boring without me (or at least that's what I tell him) and we would both probably be crazy if the 2 of us were like me. Funny how that works out - balance, I guess.

I just decided to not go to my morning outing which is usually a 2+hour ordeal. Feeling too stressed about having so much to do before leaving on Thursday. That's a big deal for me to change up my schedule like that, especially last minute, but I guess now that I did it I better get more than NOTHING done!

You're right, best that you say NOTHING. Good for you that you're learning and if you ever need a little help, I'll be glad to teach you. :boxing2:

Nucky 09-25-2018 10:15 AM

AH GRASSHOPPER.....Confusion says: Patience is the thing you need most only when there are too many witnesses.

I typed it on Porpoise. I start my week on Monday with a box full of Patience and by Saturday it is usually empty.

How are you NOTHING'S doing? All is well here just busy, busy, busy, Doctor, Doctor, Doctor. I'm happy with all of mine except one and I am going to change that. The Doctor is a great guy and has taken care of me well but the office staff he has is N.F.G. I put everything on file with my Healthcare Provider but did not put in an official complaint because it will go as a mark against the Doctor and he doesn't deserve that. Onward and Upward. I didn't want to make the Newspaper for hopping the counter and disrespecting some young snot-nose so and so. I'm getting better I cleaned that up pretty well. I have a long fuse nowadays due to this beautiful place we are lucky enough to live in.

Let's party, what did I miss?

I am shopping around for a new doctor but every time I find one I like they do not take my insurance which we have from my husbands retirement package. Insurance sucks. I remember when I took my BCBS card anywhere I wanted and did not pay a dime. NOTHING like that anymore.

That's one thing I'm not looking forward to when we move. Finding new doctors. Right now we have NOTHING but the best in the area. If we need a new doc for something Mrs. K just asks around the hospital to see who best is. Sounds like medical care in TV can be hit or miss.

They NOTHING but need us. I can find a qualified specialist in a half hour with a little work. I don't want to drop dead over a Doctor Bill not being straightened out. I even put them on a 3-way call with The Health Provider, we came to the correct conclusion, I paid my fair share and provided proof 4 times and still, the foolishness goes on? Nope, I gave them two extra chances because I make mistakes also but now they are snuffed out a memory! Thank's Mrs. Gracie, I feel better now. Back to fun n games!:1rotfl:

You hit the nail on the head with how the office staff can really screw up a good doctor situation. Sorry to hear about your situation and hope you are able to find what you want and need. Although my fuse is pretty self-contained, I'm hoping that being in TV down the road will decrease the stress I inflict on my self over being so impatient at times.

As far as partying, you missed our plan for Christmas. We are all going to put our names in a hat and whoever's name you pull you are going to buy that person this -

No B.S. so far as far as I'm concerned I am more than thrilled by the care and treatment I have received from most of the Doctors. I was guided to the Healthcare I have by a Doctor who is retired and loves Lobster and a Hospital Administrator. How fortunate can a guy who was in the Construction Business be? Their advice was spot on. I was going to say dead on but we don't use that bad word around here. :1rotfl:

I'm sure people have had bad, very bad problems but that hasn't been my experience so far. By the time you get here, K things will even be better I'm sure.

Unfortunately no one moves down here for the medical care. We came from an area where all of the hospitals were 5 star rated but this was the lifestyle we wanted so we try to make the best of it. NOTHING else we can do.
