I NOTHING but noticed that too. I think people may figure now's the time to put stuff up for sale with all the snowbirds there. We've been contacting furniture stores down there this past week to make some inquiries and they're telling us they've been swamped with customers.

I remember a pyramid and it NOTHING but happened on the first day I met Mrs. Nucky 25 years ago. Now a pup tent is good for me. Out to the Doctor. Later Gators. The Dr & the tent have NOTHING to do with one another! Just trying to get into the swing of things.

So today's mission - I'm reclaiming my office space. It's a long story but let's just say someone may end up not too happy when he gets home from work today.

I should add the "he" is not my husband. Someone else is dragging his feet moving out of here.........I won't mention any names or affiliations - lol

Sounds like NOTHING but the first step in the eviction process.. lol

You got it! My husband's NOTHING but enjoying my new "No More Mrs Nice Guy" attitude. He just gets to sit back and watch the show - lol

None of my business but is this a type of "Failure to Launch" nothing scenario?

I am eternally grateful for the nothing but "hide classifieds" button.

No, believe me, he's NOTHING but launched. When we figured out his assets he probably has his retirement plan already in place at 32 years old. He's a smart kid who knows how to leverage money and keeps a careful budget - not a spendthrift, no fancy cars, etc. The problem is he keeps using our house as a landing spot when the company he works for bounces him back and forth between here and it's corporate center 10+ hours away. This has been his longest stay here since he graduated college. Since it looks like he may be here to stay in this job position for awhile he finally got his own place but he's not moving out fast enough for me. I love him to death, but I guess I'm not good at sharing - lol

We called it NOTHING but the boomerang effect. Looking back I would like to think I could have been rougher but I know I may need their help one day. Its a tough one for sure.

I am just NOTHING but happy that "he" is not your husband.

Mrs. K and I were talking about this the other night. With all the effort we have to put into getting her parents to doctor appointments and making sure they have the right medications we are NOTHING but wondering what we're going to when we get old. Granted we're a whole lot more tech savvy than her folks but still...

That is absolutely the best reason to come to TV. Once you are no longer able to take care of yourselves the assisted living facilities here are wonderful. My dad's biggest complaint when he was in assisted living is how he felt imprisoned because without a car there was no place he could go. Here they are all golf cart or walking distance from stores and restaurants and activities. This is NOTHING but the best place to transition and have quality of life.

Not to worry my friend. Like FW said they even have that covered over here. NOTHING has been overlooked. I'd move into one of those joints right now but I think I'm gonna lay low for a while and stop acting like a male Lucille Ball.

Fortunately ours wasn't a decision due to hardship, it was just circumstances and it made sense for him not to tie himself down to a lease or a house purchase here if he was going to be transferred again before the year was up. It's just time now. We're all NOTHING but wanting our own space and apparently the work he's done there has helped keep the place afloat so I guess he feels more confident he'll be in the area for awhile.

Couldn't agree more, fw. Although we have some very nice facilities right out our back door here as well, you still have to deal with the weather, and believe me they cost an arm and a leg.......and no golf carts - lol

And K, don't feel bad, my husband and I have had the same conversation. Just because one has children doesn't mean you can always count on them. We've decided it's best to count on our son for NOTHING. For all we know, he won't even be living in this country at that time so we know better than to put all our eggs in that basket. I plan to have the place I want to go should I need assistance picked out and planned for well in advance.
