See you guys tonight.
I'm thinking maybe you need to be getting home to Mrs K sooner rather than later.

Have NOTHING but a safe day out there. See you later.

Gotta love cats. NOTHING but unpredictable, but fun.

Do you have a full day today with your grandson or will they be leaving early?

Before I get too carried away here, it is Wednesday, August 29th. I'll be so messed up with my days these next 2 weeks with a schedule change this week and the holiday next week. How can it possibly be September by the end of this week? If NOTHING else, hoping for some lower energy bills these next few months once this weather breaks. Looks like 1 or 2 more hot days up here before storms come through on Friday.

Unfortunately they will be leaving mid afternoon. I am NOTHING but sad that the time went by so fast but we had so much fun.

It wasn't even my company and yet I couldn't believe how fast the time went by either! Seemed like they just got here and the fun had just begun. Sometimes it is NOTHING but hard to say goodbye 'til the next time. While Nucky probably needed less time, you definitely could have used more.

Speaking of Nucky, sorry if the K-man scared you off last night. He seems to enjoy taking my words and twisting them so that he can sit back and watch me squirm as he puts it. Seems to be his new favorite pastime.

Maybe when we finally meet face to face I should do NOTHING but teach him a lesson and kick HIM in the shins. On second thought, maybe it would be best if I wait until after he pays for the dinner he will owe me.

Nah no NOTHING feelings here just in recovery. Seem's like I'm doing much better today. Today's mission is to wait for Safelite to show up and replace my windshield. Then handing in the lease car shortly. The trick is going to be not buying anything dopey, we don't need dopey$, we need functional.

Timing on grandchildren is an interesting question. I think and I'm adjustable on the time but I feel 2 weeks should be the max at their house. On the other hand, if they are visiting us I know 30 days is the rule but they could stay forever here. Our neighbors are cool.

What kind of vehicle are you looking at? I would not recommend a Tesla for sure NOTHING but problems I'm hearing about them.

NOTHING but a wide swing in model and brand because I can't make up my mind about leasing vs. buying.

We don't need anything with a high mileage on a lease so GMC Terrain or a nice little Caddy or a Ford Flex or Escape.

If I'm buying then I'm thinking Hyundai Sonata or Hyundai Kona.

Truly I would rather just get a convertible VW or Mini and call it a day. I've been doing the wrong thing car wise my whole life, always at the last minute and want to prevent a mistake so I will have adult supervision for the first time ever. One other detail. If I buy I want no payment unless it is a Zero Interest deal. Almost forgot my NOTHING.

Glad you had fun with your grandson Mrs. FW. You did a great job, I think that's why I'm tired from reading about your adventures.

We came down here with a Suburban and a Caddy and traded them in for a Traverse and a golf cart. The Traverse was very comfy and drove like a car but can still go to Lowe's and pick up building material since I always have some sort of project for my hubby. Must not forget my NOTHING

Seems like the key to your decision is NOTHING but written right in your very own words. So many choices out there it really can make for a difficult decision.

a nothing story
In high school for 2 years I dated a girl who's mom was in love with Lawrence Welk. Her dream date was to dance the Polka with Lawrence. This was during the era of the Allman Brothers, the Dead and The Band. I felt sorry for her on the inside but on the outside I would look at the screen, raise my eyebrows and agree that he sure was something. So I retire and plan a trip to the west coast including a stay at the Lawrence Welk Resort in Escondido, Cali. I swore my immediate family to secrecy because I knew the abuse I would get if my sibs found out. [btw, it was a nice place, the price was right, but I felt like I let Crosby down and cut my hair---and he knows it]

My mother also loved the Lawrence Welk show and watched it until she died. Those were NOTHING but kinder gentler times. I feel like my parents now when I complain about the trash on TV.

What a BrownNoser I was because I NOTHING but watched Lawrence and the Lennon a Sister's with my Nana. A One A Two And A Three Boys. Memory is a little foggy but I think those were the words. Great memories, Great times, terrible music. I liked Ozzie, Nana didn't. NOTHING doing.

That's nothing. I had a crush on Harriet. popa didn't. As I recall, he had a crush on Miss Kitty, humma, humma
And talk about foggy, I lived in a foggy part of NJ. It was so foggy my dog had to back up to bark.
