It's snowing.. I guess it's really NOTHING to complain about. It doesn't happen often and it'll probably be gone tomorrow.

Forget about Tinkle Talk or whatever the hell it is. On your smartphone just go to your browseroonie and type in Talk Of The Villages and proceed as normal as you do on your home computer. No charge for the technical assistance for you today only.
I will try that. My special female friend was nursing somewhere or other and started to ask me questions about her work. She thought I was her boss and texted me by mistake. She dated one of my least favorite people in 2018 so that kind of put a damper on things but he is someone I see extremely often and not by choice. Think that is over and NOTHING but done but did hurt my pride a great deal. Still like her though. She was a friend in 2015 through 2016 or so but have seen very little of her since early 2017. I did send her funny cards and the like. And do miss her.

She is a kind and considerate person some of the time and understood me or I thought she did. Nurses usually are compassionate people.

I do run into a different nurse who seems kind and who used to be a combat nurse. Very interesting person. She does have a boyfriend though and he seems like a nice guy from my interactions with him. We seem to be friends.

I have a real weakness for nurses and blondes.

If I could just find a female blonde nurse who is extremely familiar with movies that would be great.

We're supposed to have 3 precipitation-free days in the 50's in a row here. I'd say they're NOTHING but good moving out days - lol. We're off and running. Let's see how much we can get done before the game. Not that I really care about it though, I'll probably be paper shuffling in the other room while it's on and maybe doing a little NOTHING on the side.

So I just dropped a glass mug and shattered it into a million pieces. That is why I do not own any expensive crystal or china. NOTHING is safe in my clumsy little hands.

Well I would strike out on all 3 counts so I guess it is NOTHING but a good thing that I am already married.

Just so you're okay, NOTHING else matters. It's the same here but it's usually my husband dropping things. I love having NOTHING expensive. NOTHING expensive, no worries.

Speaking of that, I keep thinking about getting a new car. Every time I do, I think about parking it in the lot in those tight spaces every time I go to work. Takes my desire right away, much to my husband's delight - lol. Nobody seems to want to hit the old gray mare (except deer, that is) but as soon as I would get a new car - BINGO!

Sorry, you can't have mine. She would NOTHING but kill me if I tried to sell her off..

Teachers are attractive for me too. I do know a nice widowed teacher but do not see her enough. She is funny. And not for NOTHING.

My blonde nurse friend used to be married to a lawyer so I thought she would understand me and my hobbies and why they are important. And she has a great Southern accent. A lot of men seem to be attracted to her though. She used to live near the Villages but moved some miles away.

I do have to work on having more than NOTHING but keep putting it off. Kind of waiting for the right time. But I have many hours of work to do on it. Probably a few months of very hard labor.

I do recall that you mentioned you married a nurse. This is on NOTHING somewhere or other.

Good for her. My best friend in college was a nurse born in 1900. I used to clean her house, bath her poodles, drive her places, do her gardening, wash her windows, etc, from around 1977 through 1983. She hated lawyers so was upset with me when I went to BYU Law School in 1982 but was happy that I left and that I wanted to go into librarianship instead. She had lived in Reno all her life if I recall correctly and her house was from around the 1920s.

She knew a lot about Reno and its history. Her son I believe was/is a cop so her kept be abreast of some of the investigations I had an interest in back in the 1970s and early 80s.

I used to visit with her quite a bit each Sunday afternoon and not for NOTHING as I have always liked the company of seniors.

She did not take my going back to law school that well if I remember things correctly. Not sure when she passed but I try to keep a snail mail connection with various important people in my past.

I did have to switch to helping her different days when I worked in the Summers at various places around Reno or was busy with the food service for the Junior Ski Program at Sky Tavern.

FW, dropping that glass is a terrible thing to happen. If you need help on how to curse the bad feelings about dropping the glass away I could help. When I go on a tear when something like that happens even I wanna NOTHING but hide. Cursing like a sailor makes me feel better. You are probably better off drinking the Wine straight from the bottle.

Someone cut me off when I had under 300 miles on a Cadillac Brougham a lifetime ago. I let out a curse, the BIG ONE only to look in the rearview mirror and see my beloved Mother trying to keep a straight face. I had to pull off the road to finish the belly whopper laugh that we had.

Another Funny Beautiful Memory brought to you by one of the NOTHING crew. All over a dropped glass.

I NEVER knowingly cursed in front of that woman. She didn't deserve it. What I wouldn't give to talk to her again. She always rooted for the underdog in any game.

It was NOTHING. Except for the mess it made I really didn't care. I do not buy anything that I need to worry about breaking or losing. I am happy that it triggered a fond memory

This was a pretty good day. I only wish I felt happy about it instead of feeling NOTHING but melancholy. I'm such a mom about things sometimes.......

So what y'all doing? Watching the game? I'm waiting for half-time to even start watching. Then I'll see - I might end up just going to bed early.
