Hope your day goes by quickly and that the deer don't know you're back yet. I have NOTHING going on today except more cleaning and decorating.

Another NOTHING but a first. We have gone everywhere looking for a perfect chair for yours truly. Everywhere. I want a simple chair like the ones at The Villages Healthcare Living Room has. Deep Dish and it has to be leather. We found one at the Lazy Boy store on 441 and I felt guilty but since it was a Christmas Present and I'm sick of shopping I ordered it.

Mrs. Nucky said let's go look at this place Bargains & Treasures. We found the exact same chair with the ottoman for 90% off the new price. What's NOTHING but the lesson? Listen to your wifey!

I’m back …

Thank you to all you sweet Nothings who wished me well and held me in your thoughts.

The news was not what I hoped for, however, as far as results, inconclusive trumps positive so I continue to be in excellent spirits. Another field trip is scheduled for early March.

My “hip” consult is mid-January so I have something very positive (I think) to look forward to.

In the meantime, to bucket lists and friendships and warm, tender nothing moments.

Funny how you get to a certain age and you learn to take what you can get. Inconclusive is definitely better than bad. I saw a T-shirt that said "If you don't die you get old" NOTHING but amen to that.

Bargains and Treasures is definitely well named and patience is NOTHING but a virtue. It's a virtue I don't often possess but I'm working on it.

If your Spirits are "UP" Then my Spirits have been NOTHING UP lifted by you. The entire site was down for quite some time yesterday so you didn't miss NOTHING.

I saw a shirt yesterday and it said I already had a Heart, a Brain & Courage so the Wizard gave me a new Hip! I think Amazon is going to have a sale the day after Christmas on shiny new Hippies!

My world is small Mrs. BK. Tell me your impression of the Tampa area and compare it to The Villages. I went down there to go to Shooters World and really didn't look around too much I just wanted to get back here.

So happy to hear from you, glad yous are back safely!

First time ever for us. The Dining Room and Bedroom we bought new at City Furniture and rejected some pretty good stuff over at Bargains and Treasures. It saved us $1300 for the same chair, right place at the right time. They just place it out on the sales floor and I snagged it immediately.

We have friends who have their entire home furnished from this store and it is Very Nice, better than Better Homes and Garbage!

I know the way the people in the parking lot pay those car payments, they save on furniture.

For me it is about getting real wood as opposed to what they use now. I did need 2 matching desks so went to the Amish Store and ordered those and that was NOTHING but painful. It took 3 months for it to come in and the dopey sales guy ordered the wrong stain. That was bad enough but his attitude was worse, no apology just "don't worry about it we'll take care of it" It has been another 3 months and I am still waiting. Never again.

We would take NOTHING but a beautiful relaxing weekend to Downtown Lancaster Pa. Talk about rolling up the streets and shutting it down at 9 PM. I think it was even earlier there.

Waiting for Amish furniture is rough. They are Old World Craftsmen and will not be rushed and will not negotiate for all the Tea In China!

I won't be shaving anymore so I'm going to look Amishey in a short period of time. A Friend O' Mine Let me know my blades are made in NOTHING like America.

I think once they get your order correct it will have been worth the wait. Good Luck.

It's not so much the wait as the attitude of this jerk. The delivery guys were NOTHING but nicer and more apologetic and it wasn't their fault.

Running NOTHING but late this morning. I'll have to catch up with NOTHING later.

Glad to see you back, BK.. The absence of bad news is good news,,

Truck Drivers are generally very nice people. I respect them a whole lot. I can tell the Owner-Operator from The Teamster from the Person getting paid by the load just by the way the drive and the condition of their truck. It's NOTHING but inexcusable that they sent you the wrong color but I'll bet it's something like they were trying to run out their inventory or something underhanded or else they would have replaced it quickly. I already called Vito & Rocco they are waiting for NOTHING but your order!

We just finished watching an Old Favorite Movie that we haven't seen in a long time. Hoffa. And the answer is no to the obvious question!

He had the correct concept in the beginning for sure, to protect the working man from skunks like the one who decided to pass the wrong furniture on you. Driving is a rough way to make a living, it's not romantic like people dream about.

P.S. The new chair knocked me out. I had to back the movie up about an hour. BEAUTIFUL NOTHING'S ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!

No this dope ordered the wrong color stain, that is why I am so mad that he wouldn't even apologize or try to be sympathetic or offer to try to expedite the replacement. He just made it sound like too bad it's wrong but we'll get another one. If I didn't want them to match I would have just told him what to do with it.

I am NOTHING but happy for you though and your success with your chair. They do sometimes have some very nice things there but it is hit or miss.

It appears there's NOTHING much going on today..

I now know the true, real, actual meaning of NOTHING. Because now instead of doing anything twice today I landed in The Chair and got hooked into a Hallmark Film about some Sappy Girlie B.S. where there was no gunfire, blood or cursing. I took one for the team cause Mrs. Nucky has been a trooper over the years with Swamp People, Swamp Pawn, Hardcore PAWN, Chasing Classic Cars, Counting Cars, Fast & Loud Etc. It's the least I could do. But not every day.

This chair feels so good on my Spine, so far. A simple change like that who woulda thunk it?

Mrs. FW riddle me this, where are the Mistaken Amish Peoples from? Is it the Pa bunch? I feel bad about that and wish I could help.
