If it's truly a simplehuman they will probably get along. If it was a complicatedhuman you would have NOTHING but trouble..

Oh yeah...there was a comment.

To stay out of trouble, I'll just say that it came from one of the 4 or 5 members that were here last night...albeit very briefly. :D

You had to be there though, as it was...NOTHING but hilarious. :1rotfl:

Simple Human is NOTHING but good stuff I 'm sure it would get along with anything. I not sure how friendly the China Dragon hutch is though.

90 is NOTHING. The day before I left PA it was in the 90's with a heat index of 104. NOTHING but prepared me for coming down here to what I think is beautiful weather. Of course, it could be the exceptional environment here which makes 90 feel like a walk in the park compared to up there.

Did you get the truck spic and span?

Yep, got the truck washed, a new fire radio installed. Changed the oil in a couple of pumps.. All in all NOTHING but a productive day but also relaxing..

Mrs. K. brought lunch out and we sat with the shop doors open and watched as Bambi came by with two little ones.

Are you still out there house hunting or have you pretty much decided on building?

I think it's now time for a nap.

We went to LSL and got an ice cream. It was beautiful. We went into a shop and then the skies opened up and we got NOTHING but soaked.

I know it sounds NOTHING but funny but I'm actually looking forward to the thunder storms. We're known for lots of rain up here but it's usually just a nagging, drizzly, boring rain. We might see lightning twice a year.

Today we went to pick out some furniture for my cousin's new house. Right up my alley - I love to do NOTHING more than house hunt, furniture shop, AND spend other people's money. The latter keeps my husband quite happy. :)

You guys sound like you have NOTHING but an idyllic lifestyle up there. Hope it won't be too difficult to pull yourselves away to move to Florida some day.

As far as which way we will go down here, build or buy resale and what area, well, I guess I better check with my other half before making that decision. I did buy a car without consulting him once, but buying a house might be taking it a little too far......lol

Well you will NOTHING but love it here. The lightning lights up the sky and then there are the most beautiful rainbows

We heard about that when we got back to the area. We were in Orlando until about 4pm or so. When we got back we were told we had just missed a downpour. We were NOTHING but lucky I guess!

My idea of a good day shopping is to click on the Amazon icon.. lol You and Mrs. K will definitely get along though. She can shop all day and not buy NOTHING. Is that really shopping?

This is definitely the most beautiful place we have ever lived. It's just that the winters seem to be getting longer, wetter and colder. When we go to FL, Mrs. K. doesn't ache..lol Also we live on just under 5 acres. I'm getting pretty disinterested in maintaining it now. In five years I know I'll be done.

Funny thing is that it absolutely poured at LSL but when we got home 3 miles away it had not even rained. We were NOTHING but surprised

I monitor this site during the summer to see if we're getting any lightning over our fire area. Real-Time Lightning Map :: LightningMaps.org

I often check on the Villages to see how bad you guys are getting hit.. NOTHING but active this time of year..

Yes NOTHING is frequently what I end up with when I go shopping, unless I have something specific that I need.

NOTHING but a good thing to be planning ahead. My husband who is probably about 5 years older than you is finally admitting to the difficulty of maintaining what we have up north. I'm not certain how things will turn out for us but I sure hope we get here before you do!
