Something About Nothing............ #14

Yeah, McK, mostly we see white tail hawks around here. Almost always see one circling. Had one tear into my front window bush at high speed a few months ago. Guess he was hoping to eat some of the young birds. That bush always seems to have the nests of the sparrows that come every Spring and leave every Fall. And has had one enjoy a squirrel he had caught, as he tried to carry it off, but decided a meal now, in our backyard, was the better choice. They are strong birds, but I assume that big squirrel was too heavy for him. They do better with smaller birds, mice, and small rabbits. You don’t see them carrying a full side rabbit either. And yeah, my Dsis was always looking out for her dog, when in her large backyard, as yeah, a hawk would as soon have a small dog than any other wildlife.

Little one wants to go for a walk. Hair up, as way too warm to be around my neck, and a hat and suntan lotion. With this full sunny day, I am not getting red or any sunburn.

Hope all are having some fun this Sunday.
 
Ooh, I would be so lucky to be enjoying that tea with Schumi. One of my favorites, Earl Grey. Such a nice strong tea. I make it once in awhile, as sometimes hard to find around me. But not so an unusual tea. Mine, just black tea leaves. But tasty none the less. Those, are around everywhere.

I heard commotion from my window, looked out and saw a snowy owl staring at me, wings spread across more than my whole pane of window. I think he was as startled as me, as he promptly then flew away. He was huge.


I think Earl Grey may be a favourite after plain old regular tea....got have the extra lemon in it for me though...yes, nice with a slice of cake or pie!

We have a lot of owls around here, one usually sits right on our gates, almost like a little guard. Never manage to get close to them though, they are beautiful creatures.

We do see Kestrels and hawks too round here. The Goshawk is one of the more common here, they have red eyes usually and white brows....we don`t have pets to worry about here though.



I have, yes. I like the fuller bodied wines, and if the Malbec finishes smooth I can drink it. Same with Shiraz. I am very much an "old world" style wine person. Some of the local ones here are a bit too "sharp" for me. I make up my own wine tasting words... lol!

LOL! Lambrusco is an Italian staple wine in households here. I think I'll drink it because it reminds me of my childhood! LOL! Don't laugh, but growing up with Italian grandparents you got a taste of wine with your dinner growing up. They mixed a bit of wine with soda for us. Definitely frowned upon these days.

Ironically, Che La Luna is playing right now in the background on my Echo dot. I usually tell Alexa to play music like Dean Martin and off she goes....

Hey, any word will do if that`s how you feel when you drink it......love a good full bodied wine whatever the grape usually. Except French wines....not a fan of the many I have tried.

Oh I`m not laughing, it`s not just Italy. They do the same in France, Germany and most of the Nordic countries, they`ll give kids wine usually mixed with water with dinner at a very young age. First time someone gave me as a 6 year old a glass of water mixed with wine her face was a picture apparently......lol....I don`t even remember.

I certainly got the taste for it somehow!!!

Che La Luna I only ever hear on an episode of Everybody Loves Raymond.....and old Italian relative turns up.....only she`s not a relative at all!! Funny show.




Dinner is done.

Feeling very full right now......my two had room for dessert, not me....will see if I feel like it later.

Well, the opening of pubs didn`t exactly work out as Boris planned. Crowds of hundreds all congregating together and it`s not going to get any better. Cities seem to be overun with people and police admit, they can`t stop it.

Not sure what the answer is.

Tonight.....not sure what we`ll watch. Finished off the Epstein documentary last night. Compelling viewing. Nothing but admiration for those ladies who stepped forward. Must be more to come with the arrest of his accomplice.

There`s a few real crime stories on there to watch.....always fascinating.

I know Kevin Bacon is not everyone`s cup of tea....but he has a new movie out I think called You should have left! Like the sound of it.....it`s off the Blumhouse family, so will give it a shot! Love some KB!!!!

Talking of tea.........😁
 


Finding my way around the DIS after another long break and glad to see you all here and doing ok. Strange times we are living through and sad we don’t feel able to have booked our next planned Florida trip. Problem is looks like many people now wanting 2022 so we may have to be very patient. Hope you’re all well x
 


Just posting to say hey to all the homies!

A great day to stay inside for me.
Trying to play ketchup on the sans.

Hope all are doing good and having a great 3 day weekend!

hey mac.......

Another hot one for you over there....can you send a little heat over here please.....anything would be nice........:sunny:

Welcome back Rff......good to see you again.

Yes, very strange times indeed......so many plans changed and postponed by so many. Who would have thought something like this would happen.....

Hope you and your family are doing well......:wave2:
 
Thank you Schumi! I could write a book about everything truly. We’ve had a rough time but we’re still here and still much to be thankful for. Hoping that lovely weather returns soon as here on the edge of the Peak District we’ve got more rain and high winds tonight x
 
I think I’m going to dive into a half gallon of raspberry choc chunk ice cream that winked at me earlier when I opened the freezer

Same here. Always a drunk uncle who wouldn’t let any of the dredges left in cups go to waste yuck

we patronize a couple of the local wineries, not a fan of the microbreweries. IPAs With odd flavorings ( crime brûlée’s???)most that will curl your hair no thank you.

unfortunately most closed again as CV employees will put a damper on their sales I’m sure.
Good morning all! Heading over to see younger dd in a moment. She has Disney + so we’re going to watch Hamilton! Very excited.
will catch up later!
Knew I forgot something this weekend lol
 
hi everybody :wave2:

Playing catchup again today in between packing for our trip tomorrow and last minute cleaning.

It's going to be nice to get away for a while. We aren't planning on doing much ...just keep to ourselves and maybe go to the beach a few times. :beach: Hanging out on the balcony and watching the sunset over the gulf sounds great to me :cloud9:

At least I know that everyone going with me has been tested for Covid so no worries. We're taking most of our food with us and only plan on eating out at places with outdoor seating.

Good to see you RFF...welcome back!

keisha...thanks for reminding me that I have some coconut mango habanero ice cream left in the freezer...wouldn't want it to go bad while we're gone :rolleyes1:goodvibes
Well guess I'll get back to packing...have a great night everyone .

Yep, with two really tiny dogs I'm always on the lookout. There was a story a few months ago up here about a small dog taken by a hawk but it dropped it a few blocks away and it was found, unharmed. I think if the prey puts up a fight the hawk will let it go some of the time.

LOL!! It's such a cultural thing with the way I was raised that alcohol is a non-issue. We never felt the need to drink to excess when we turned 21 because it wasn't a 'forbidden" thing. It's just a norm to have drink every so often and no one drinks to excess.
I appreciate wine making for the actual craft of it, just like any other food or drink. We have distant relatives who own and operate a vineyard and winery in NY and it's fascinating to me how they choose grapes, terroir, barrels, ageing, etc.
Che La Luna I only ever hear on an episode of Everybody Loves Raymond.....and old Italian relative turns up.....only she`s not a relative at all!! Funny show.

Oooh..... interesting flavor combination! Love it!

Can't believe the weekend is almost already over. Sounds like everyone had a weekend of fun and food. I am with the crowd that is ready for the fireworks to go. Been about 2 weeks strong here. Guess I know how my neighbors are spending their stimulus check.

Life's been real busy. Tuesday was mom's retirement party. First time we had stepped inside a restaurant since February. Felt ok about it as we were in a private room and it was just mom's coworkers and family. Her ex-bosses have been really smart about the whole covid thing. Mom was so surprised, even tho the hostess kind of blew it. Her company gave her a really great send off and I think she is at peace with retiring.

Work is crazy right now; however I only had to stay late one day this week. Don't see it slowing down for a while at least until after we move. Really blessed with Jeff getting home before me most days, so he has been a grilling fiend and that makes it so much easier.

We keep hopping on the fence about our September trip. I am so excited about going away just hubby and I and ready to go back to Universal, but listening to others and watching this whole virus blow up all over the place, doubts are creeping in. Universal isnt worrying us but the plane ride and airport are. Southwest will still have 2 to a row when we fly and masks, but my sensible boring side is yelling at me. Still have time. Southwest was funny when I asked about their cancellation policy. "Just have to cancel 10 minutes prior to boarding." Never heard of a 10 minute cancellation time frame.

Suppose I will stop rambling and clean up from dinner. Mother nature decided to send a downpour so no steaks for us tonight.

Have a great week everyone.

Started to write a post several hours ago, but got distracted.

Had a semi productive day today. I actually cooked 2 meals at home. I rarely ever cook on a Sunday. I also went shopping to get my mom some more puzzle books. I talked to her today and she is going home on Tuesday. I also worked on the puzzle a couple more hours. I think I should start a poll on when we will actually finish it.

@Charade67 you must go to Carousel of Progress! I took my daughters when they were teens the first time fully expecting them to say didn’t like it, but they enjoyed it. It’s still a must do for us. And in summer a great break from the heat.
Also Peoplemover a must do.
I looked at some pictures of it online yesterday and I think I actually went on it once many years ago. I'm pretty sure I have never done the Peoplemover though.

Attaching a picture of the grandbaby.
She's adorable.

Before GD was born, the other ‘grandma’ announced a nickname for herself. Not nana, she spelled it out as Nona but she pronounced it not like Donna. :confused: I still can’t pronounce it properly

She was insistent that she would preassign everyone in the extended family a nickname. Suggested granmamma for me & even less flattering names for others...and it was on Let’s just say there was an immediate revolt by ‘all in the family’.
I can understand the family not wanting assigned nicknames. My parents were raised in the country, so we always used Grandma and Grandpa for both sets of grandparents. I have one friend who has her grandchildren call her Lola. I have no idea where that came from.

It’s like living in war zone......fireworks have been toning off here since dark. It’s been nonstop for 4 hours.
Ugh, that would drive me crazy. I am very thankful that my neighbors weren't too bad last night.

Ooh, a very sunny Sunday, and a hot one, again. No dinner to cook, as my brother said he’s getting pizzas. Last of mom’s things are in that brother’s house, and after taking way too long to go through all the stuff my sister had, we all will be glad. She had so many pictures, blast from past for all of us, and some tears, as with both parents gone, we all selected some, and my sister will keep the rest that we thought needed to be kept. Was good to see my oldest sibling and his wife that arrived on Friday, after a long drive. He lives in the state next to ours, and I have to agree, the travel across our state is mostly boring. We expected, and enjoyed candy he bought from a place near him, that is very good candy. They also brought home made, by one of his local dairy farms, strawberry shortcake ice cream. So refreshing, and tasty. I did a lemon meringue pie, that was delicious, and I was happy the peaks survived in the box I brought it in. I wanted a lid, as I have had a pie that slipped out of its pan, and prompted landed on the floor before. So no pie on floor would be in my car. There is, as usual, so much food left over from last night, I have left overs that will be breakfast and lunch. Hard boiled eggs are a perfect breakfast item, with fresh fruit mix, we tossed Friday afternoon. All was sweet, And I know little one will get into the slices of watermelon we also have. We always use half the watermelon in the mix, the slice the rest. There’s something you do in the summer. Grab a slice, and lean over, as the drips of watermelon always are, as you munch to the rind. Summer is a great time to enjoy the fresh fruit that Is on sale everywhere this time of year.
Sounds like a wonderful, but sentimental time with family. I know it couldn't have been easy to go through the last of your mother's things.

Would you believe the casino is open? They cancelled minor league baseball, had no fans in the stands for the Pocono 500, yet they open the casino where people are literally on top of each other indoors? In a very "high touch" setting?
I really don't get that, but then again I don't understand a lot of what is allowed and what isn't.

Counting down the hours till I get my hair done though......I know many of you ladies know what I mean when I say it`s getting rather desperate now!!! Never gone 4 months between visits ever!!!
Happy hair day!

The only one that truly started me, was at work. I heard commotion from my window, looked out and saw a snowy owl staring at me, wings spread across more than my whole pane of window. I think he was as startled as me, as he promptly then flew away. He was huge.
How cool. Too bad it flew away before you could get a picture.

We have a lot of owls around here, one usually sits right on our gates, almost like a little guard. Never manage to get close to them though, they are beautiful creatures.
I would love to have some owl visitors. I've never seen one outside of a zoo or birds of prey show.

Good morning all! Heading over to see younger dd in a moment. She has Disney + so we’re going to watch Hamilton! Very excited.

That sounds really good.

Have a great trip.

I guess I should get some sleep since I have to go to work tomorrow. My boss is taking the day off, so I hope I have a quiet day.
 
Thank you Schumi! I could write a book about everything truly. We’ve had a rough time but we’re still here and still much to be thankful for. Hoping that lovely weather returns soon as here on the edge of the Peak District we’ve got more rain and high winds tonight x

Hope the worst of the rough times are behind you now. Yes, we have to think of the positives when times get like that.

We had high winds last two days, and rain too, but wind died down last evening and it`s calm right now although more rain is forecast this week. Grass has never looked lusher!!!! Wonder when the hosepipe ban will come in.....lol......

We have some odd flavours of beers here too.....Tom does like a variety, but if it sounds like a dessert, that`s a no!!

We have some lovely little microbreweries, but more or less normal!!!

I wish I drank beer at times, I do take a sip now and again, but you know me, I much prefer wine.

I`m laughing as I think we all had that drunk uncle......lol......

Love the sound of the ice cream Vicki.......

Have a wonderful trip with the kids Vicki, I know how much you`re ready for this one. Hope it`s a lot of fun for you all!!!




They are sooooo fast when they attack!

Yep, with two really tiny dogs I'm always on the lookout. There was a story a few months ago up here about a small dog taken by a hawk but it dropped it a few blocks away and it was found, unharmed. I think if the prey puts up a fight the hawk will let it go some of the time.

We are the sterotypical Italian-American family. It was funny that I was talking about our wine drinking as kids while the music was playing in the background. Too many stereotypes in one paragraph!

Oh yikes!

80's girl here.... love me some Kevin Bacon!

I saw that on Disney+ and was wondering about it. You'll have to let me know if you liked it.

Hi Mac! :hug: Hope you are having a great weekend too!

Eww, yuck! LOL!

What?! I'm pretty sure that's sacrilegious....

Oh how nice! Have fun and stay safe.

Oooh..... interesting flavor combination! Love it!

Yes, it`s a very healthy way to teach kids about alcohol. Not sure it really works for a lot though. I think if you`re going to be sensible, you`ll be sensible anyway.

People have laughed at me over the years for saying wine is a hobby......nice hobby, but that`s what it is. If the interest is there then it`s fun. We belong to several wine enthusiast groups......and it`s nice to be a part of that. And yes, it`s not about just knocking back a load of wine, it`s appreciating everything about it, without being stuffy about it too. Similar folks with the same interest. Some folks like rock climbing.....some like stamp collecting (?) we like wine.....:)

In France once we had the worst expert....he was very snooty about it and rambled on for far too long about one particular wine we did actually like, it was a Vouvray.........we were all like....oh just pour it darling!!!!

Nothing wrong with a stereotype at times......and oh yes.......80`s gal here too......love some Bacon.....Kevin and the food......lol......

Glad your mum`s retirement party went well!!! And glad to hear she is content to retire.....some folks aren`t ready at all.

Hope work eases up even a little....but glad you have a wonderful wing man at home!!! It`s nice to have someone who does that. Yes, we`ve had too much rain to grill out recently too......I miss it.

Yes, there are so many things to consider for a trip anytime soon. One friend over there said if we were visiting July/August he`d tell us not to visit. But, I think he was being gentle by not mentioning September, bless him. But, you still have plenty of time.....

That sounds really good.

Have a great trip.

I guess I should get some sleep since I have to go to work tomorrow. My boss is taking the day off, so I hope I have a quiet day.

So funny, I love cooking on a Sunday. Especially in the winter where I can spend all day cooking and baking.

Yes, owls are common here. I`m not a bird watcher in any way, but we do get a lot of them around here in the woods and fields...I have no idea what they see, but they seem to enjoy it!

Thanks, looking forward to the salon today!!!





Hey mac........:wave2:






Yep, Monday is hair day!!! Finally after 4 months.

Weather looks very grey and bland, but wind has died down. Had a very peaceful night and slept so well last night.

We did spend some time outside last night looking at the beautiful sight of the moon, Jupiter and Saturn in a triangle. They are unusually close to each other right now....and through the telescope you could clearly see the Jupiters four moons too which was quite spectacular! Yes, geeks....but happy to be geeks!!

No idea if we`ll do anything this afternoon, depends on the weather. Some of our local cafe`s are opening today and have added some outdoor seating despite space being an issue for both of them. Hope they do well as one had just opened two months before the shutdown. Nice couple who run it.

Packing sounds so exciting! We have just booked 4 days away with daughter and grandchildren to a wildlife area in Lancashire when they are on summer school break. Self catering and like you will take most of our food with us though apparently a pizza van comes on the site on Friday night and the children will love that! It’s only 90 minutes away but after all these weeks of going nowhere it will be an adventure.

Hope you have a good break.
 
Nice to hear from you Real, and hoping some better times are coming the rest of this year. Nice to plan a get away, with a pizza van visit there. Interesting way for pizza to arrive.

Ah. Yes, Schumi we are astronomy geeks too, as the moon looked so pretty rising over the horizon as we left my brother’s home last night. Hope your hair appointment went well. So nice to be back on that schedule again.

It’s the back to routine this Monday morning. And a very warm day says the weather lady. 96F the high, and with the humidity, will feel warmer than that. And those chances of rain today are even less than yesterday, and yesterday, not many losers got rain.

Welcome to Monday homies. A Marvelous one. Safe travels to Tink. Yay, for vacation you were looking forward to, is today.

Hehe, that squirrel picture.
 
Just returned from meeting with the Estate Agents at my parents home. It’s a tough one to sell as it was where I grew up and their home for 64 years. Beautiful gardens and location but needs some modernising now. As I’m the one dealing with probate and the estate though I have to get on with it for the rest of the family. Lost my beloved Dad in April - 12 months since we lost Mum.

Wet and windy the whole time but sun has suddenly appeared now I’m back in Macclesfield.

Squirrels are in abundance here and play round and round the garden - much to Louie’s (our Cavalier) annoyance!
 
Hugs, Real. Was sad when we had to sell my parents home, that my dad had built, over 60 years before the sale. But another family is enjoying it, so I hope your family home goes to another who will also enjoy it, raising a family in it. And, after spending 2 days going through what was left, after my mom also passed away in April, my dad, long ago now, it’s time to move on, and keep fond memories.
