Tom you have 9000 plus...the NOTHING thread has just over 4000.

I think NOTHING could be finer than to be in Carolina----except being in The Villages. Maybe Rocky and the Rollers can do something with this.

I seem to have 35, 200+ or so. And some of these are on NOTHING.

Been in Florida now 22 years and a few days. 13 of these in the Villages.

I do not mind the heat here in FL not for NOTHING.

I do miss the mountains of CO, NV, and CA and the snow at times. Better to be inside a moving car or train or in a warm house or motel/hotel though at the snow.

Robert and I havebeen here since 12/2015 from Provincetown—not Providence RI.

Wanna know why? Around the end of March 2014, the temperature dropped to the teens and STAYED there until mid-April. Our steps were frozen solid from ample snow and were not passable until May! We had to use the garage to get into the house.

Well, while checking my neighbors’ house for frozen pipes, I slipped on the ice and broke my ankle—the mellifluous or something like that.

The only good things about lots of snow (small amounts are just boring) are: 1. It’s beautiful and therapeutic to watch and, 2. There’s NOTHING to do but make a long-simmering broth or soup, have a fire and drink nice wine.

He was always too clever to say anything crazy enough to get him mental health treatment. After he killed himself, quite a long time later after the forced eviction, the cops got a look at his journals which showed just how troubled he was. My brother and sister-in-law saw these too. Guns and the mentally ill do not mix well but these are complicated issues. Too easy for enemies to use labels of mentally ill to get some kind of leverage or just win battles. Crooked timber of humanity and all that. Not a NOTHING quote from Immanuel Kant. Immanuel Kant - Wikiquote



The last quarter of 2014 was a very tough period for my older brother and his wife with the loss of both her only sibling and his youngest brother as well a few months apart. And both due to all consuming mental health and/or addiction problems. Jim was addicted to carrying those semi-automatic pistols around. My younger brother to alcoholism for decades.

That’s a lot to say, Tal. I think you must be a very good man. Hats off to you.

Mental illness is NOTHING but the worst curse. My sister's oldest child is bi-polar and it has been a horrible life sentence for her.

My nephew was bipolar. Unexplainably, when we was 23 or 24 all clinical symptoms (crazy behavior) vanished as if NOTHING had happened. I hope it’s not life for your niece.

Think there is already too much drama on NOTHING. We need some comic relief.

My wife sat down next to me as I was flipping channels.
She asked, "What's on TV?"
I said, "Dust."

And then the fight started...

NOTHING but LOL!

It's my nephew and he is approaching 30. NOTHING would be better than that for my sister but I would not hold my breath. That is absolutely remarkable for your nephew though.

The Thread About NOTHING
 
My 1st wife was manic depressive, now called bipolar. It was a wild 22 years. NOTHING what I would go through again. Cancer would have been easier to live with. [emoji15]
Oh yeah, alcoholic too [emoji55]

I can NOTHING but relate to this. The year before we moved we got four feet of snow in two weeks time and two months later it was still there much of it turned to ice. The soup gets old fast but the wine is a good plan.

I saw that earlier but just couldn't bear to give a NOTHING violation to someone who says something so nice about another NOTHING.

Thanks for being the heavy, K. You do the job so well. :girlneener:

Yep, I'm NOTHING but done for the next 25 days! They tried to get me to come in tomorrow. (I don't fly out until Wednesday.) I said NOTHING doing, but if they were desperate I would try to talk my husband into coming in and covering......NOTHING like throwing him under the bus. Lucky for both of us they were able to come up with another body.....lol.

So I'll be busy packing and wrapping things up around here tomorrow and part of Wednesday. Hope I have time for NOTHING in between.
