Hey, Tom! What a pleasant surprise! It's reassuring to hear that you are doing well. No matter how much or how little you are able to post here (even though we hope it is much :icon_wink:), you will always be a NOTHING to us.

Abby10 10-12-2018 11:13 AM

Looks like everybody's busy today except for the 2 who are still employed. How does that NOTHING compute?

Just got done with some paperwork, now the real work begins. That's if a nap doesn't look better instead. I never did get one in yesterday so maybe today is the day.......

That's good to hear. I'd hate to think that after moving to The Villages all you'd have to do is NOTHING.

What do you think of this t-shirt?

Attachment 76846

I know this one is mine -

Attachment 76847

Except they spelled shenanigans wrong.....what's up with that?!?

Well that was my little break......back to doing more than NOTHING........

Out doing my mandatory four hours of yard work.. It's now NOTHIING but time for a nap..

Nucky 10-12-2018 04:36 PM

NOTHING but went to see Forever Young at Big Cypress. It is a Do Wop Group of 5 people who are spectacular. All this talent we are surrounded by in The Villages. It's a beautiful thing.

tomwed, glad you ducked in for a quick how do you do. Glad your good.

That one is good but I like the one you picked out for W also. Being good is always NOTHING but a real challenge for me.

I'll keep that in mind when I'm looking for you.

Anyway, I'm stopping by to :rant-rave: and maybe even :swear: so just call me Nucky - lol. Lesson learned today is NOTHING but plantation shutters. If I have to hang another set of curtains/drapes or shades in my lifetime, I may not live through it. It should have been simple, but not for me.......UGH! My next house is going to be NOTHING but simple, simple, everything as simple as possible. Still not done with the job but just had to walk away for a moment........thank goodness for NOTHING.

Good for you. Got your exercise and a nap.

No time for me to take a nap today, however in retrospect it may have been more productive.....:undecided:

The easiest way to have simple is to have NOTHING which is virtually impossible when you are married to a pack rat. You don't own stuff it owns you.

For an extra lobster I guess I can be NOTHING but nice to you..

Although you didn't say how long I needed to be nice for.. Since you failed to stipulate this important detail I will default to 20 minutes.. :1rotfl:

No, I didn't realize how it sounded because my mind was not even going in that direction. Quite frankly, I'm NOTHING but appalled that yours did, fw. You been hanging out with W on the side without telling us? :icon_wink:

'Gilligan's Island' star Dawn Wells on GoFundMe: 'I am amazed'

Dawn Wells fell on some hard times financially and seems to have pulled out of them. She was born and raised in Reno. Nevada and was Miss Nevada around 1959. And not for NOTHING. There are some very wholesome Northern Nevadans. Some of the show girls in my various University of Nevada, Reno classes seemed nice but I was way too intimated by them to ask one of them out on a date. Plus, they were older students for the most part. 1959 Miss Nevada Dawn Wells | Miss Nevada

Had to check on Ginger as well. Gilligan'''s Island'''s Tina Louise, 84, Steps Out | PEOPLE.com

Great! One present down. Well two - I think W will like his too. Finding something for tomwed and our newest regular NOTHING, Tal, has been a little more difficult. Still on the lookout for K and Nucky's. K may be getting NOTHING if he doesn't shape up, and I'm not talking about exercise so don't sweat it. Speaking of exercise though, Nucky, how's the swimming going? You haven't mentioned it recently.

Today is Saturday, October 13th. I'm on my way out the door shortly so talk to you all later.

Actually it is very easy. We all get shirts with NOTHING on them. Problem solved!

I see that Nucky was up in the wee hours of the morning worried that his golf cart goes too fast. :1rotfl:

I have a few score of t-shirts for donating platelets. A NOTHING t-shirt would be a nice change.

I seem to recall Talk of the Villages t-shirts way back but could be mistaken with that memory. I did not buy one if memory serves. Something Talk Host came up with for marketing or maybe it was Tony.

I do remember Talk Host talking to people in the Squares about Talk of the Villages. And going to a lot of meetings. I found out about Talk of the Villages when he gave a talk about it at a Friday afternoon Villages Computer Club meeting in late July of 2007.

I have still been swimming/pool walking as much as possible. Many things are falling to the side because of the time out of the house. NOTHING but fine by me. We have stopped going to the pool once its dark. It is true for sure that you become more sensitive to the cold as either you age or you live in Florida longer? I really don't know.

Just walking into the rehab is going to make me need a rehab. It's worth it to see our buddy making progress. I took today off to catch up on stuff. Gained 2 lbs last Tuesday at the weigh-in. I don't understand for the life of me but am not doing the usual and giving up. I'm gonna keep going till I can fit thru the Golden Arches at McDonald's. :1rotfl::1rotfl: Just kidding mc Donald's = Verbotten!

I know that the obvious answer would be to just push the accelerator until I only go 20 MPH but I also know something changed and is probably wrong. Turns out the two guys who posted NOTHING but answered something that makes sense and I'm grateful for their advice. I've tried to investigate it on the computer myself and came up with rocks. I want to get it fixed because its safety first for me.

Nothing but a beautiful day in The Villages. I have changed all the Televisions to be streaming capable and let DirecTv go. Sad in a way. They said I was with them for 15 years. I would still be with them except I don't want to talk about the bill every month. I wonder if I'm still going to get Birthday & Christmas cards from their customer service reps who were actually great people? Direct went bad shortly after AT&T got involved. :duck:

NOTHING but good to hear that you are not allowing a few hiccups to make you backslide. Not worth letting it ruin all the progress you've made. Good attitude you have there. I'm still working on getting off the extra pounds from last winter and determined not to allow that to happen again this time around. It was a harsh winter and I just let it get to me. That's why I've been hitting the gym so hard because I want to make it more a habit than an afterthought and something I would miss if I didn't do it.........if that's even possible. :confused: Plus I'm noticing the older I get I need to keep moving, or else I'm going to be in trouble. And we all know I already get into more than enough trouble than I can handle just being on here.

TOTV posters can often provide NOTHING but the best advice. There are so many really smart and talented people in TV and to think we only see a fraction of that on this forum.

Nothing but another crummy day up here. Although yesterday did turn into a beautiful day after all with gorgeous blue skies. Should have taken a picture - not sure when I'll see that again. The only good part about all this not so nice weather is my husband is now talking about maybe staying in TV a lot longer than just the winter months when we move down. He is much more affected by the lack of sunshine and good weather than I am because he enjoys being outside so much. It may prove to be a good thing in the long run. :)

Kenswing 10-13-2018 09:52 AM

NOTHING from me until I get my coffee.. Well I guess I could at least say good morning.. So Good Morning!

Great - why don't you spread the NOTHINGNESS around? Or are you just a NOTHING shirt hoarder?

Abby10 10-13-2018 10:45 AM

Am I the only one who thinks this forum has changed quite a bit over the past few years? I'm wondering if people are becoming more reluctant to post because every little thing seems to become a big controversy. It's still a great forum to ask for advice like Nucky's golf cart question or for newbies to get questions answered about TV in general, but heaven forbid should you want to start a discussion about something, no matter how innocent the subject of the post.

As I've said many times before, thank goodness for NOTHING.........

Still NOTHING but funny. Did you ever think a decade ago that you would be concerned about your golf cart speed?
