    So sorry to all of you with colds/pain/etc! Be kind to yourselves while you recover. This doctor (and I'm one of the few people on this board who is NOT a doctor!) orders lots of rest, fluids, and healthy, nourishing food.

    I'm up early so I can leave extra-early ... it rained last night, then froze. Ugh. And today is my big driving day. I do 2 meetings about 30 miles away very early, and then drive to another city for a 3rd, then drive home. It could be very ugly out on the highway, so I plan to be on the road by 6am.

    WW meetings have been bursting at the seams! Lots of great excitement with all the new materials, new members, and new commitments. I am totally in my groove getting to know and love on more amazing people! This is truly my calling.

    Mornin' BBB.

    Please be careful traveling to and fro, Lisa! It's great to love what you do, it means never having to go to work.

    Off to stand in line at DMV again. Hope I can beat the crowd and get 'er done.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Morning Gang~

    Office day....bidding adieu to some of our political appointees this week. Of course the region is ramping up for the 20th pomp and circumstance.

    Lisa - you're an awesome steward for the WW Community! Be safe.

    DMV - ugh! What a way to spend your day off!

    HH tonight with a former PhD colleague. Anxious to see him.

    Have an inspired day, gang!

    Good Morning,
    Tis TGIF Eve,
    Lee, enjoy the inefficiencies of government and watching your tax dollars being wasted. Think on this: Ineptocracy (in-ept-oc-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers. Those folks at the DMV are there to collect a check, them getting you a license will not be their main goal today. Wishing you luck today.
    Steph, like new wheels and would you come clean my garage?
    Lisa, the prodigal child, glad you dropped in on us; be careful playing on ice.
    DW must be feeling better, she's back to yelling at DMIL, and DMIL is still being herself walking around with her wine glass in hand.
    Glad most are doing and feeling better.
    Enjoy the Day,
    Sam I am

    Good Morning BBB.
    Lisa - I know you are a careful driver but watch out for the other guy! It is truly your calling to help others - <3
    Lee - good luck at the DMV - this is like a Seinfeld show.
    Mandatory monthly team training today - January's agenda is all admin including annual vet check.
    Do good out there everyone.

    Good Morning!

    Lee - did you take the strategy of getting there ultra early to camp out before they open? Kansas has a new deal where you can get a number on line, and they call you an hour before your number is called. I've not tried that, and don't know how well it works.

    Sam - praying for you for patience! I can only imagine, based on my own DMIL. I think she has slowed down on her drinking some, due to cancer, but I think she still has vodka that nobody knows about. Sigh....

    Lisa - be careful, and have a great time!

    Have a great day, all!

    Good Morning BBB

    I stopped at.....a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected - haa LOL, that's all. :D (oh and the could be a reflection on either party wink wink)

    Be safe Lisa! I hope those folks realize just how lucky they are to have you in the flesh - hubbahubba

    Good news for Happy Jack I'm sure at his annual check up today!

    Things changing here as the owner got let go of his real job yesterday and is going to play in his sandbox here. I'm excited, maybe he'll finally move us forward!

    Cheers to your and your HH friend, Bill - have fun.

    Here's to one day closer to the weekend!

    Good morning BBB Friends. Sam, I really must speak to your about your negativity. B) Lisa, sounds like you have the typical WW New Years resolution rush. Hoping you have safe travels. Nice wheels Steph. Lee, hoping you have a new drivers license as I'm writing this. It is supposed to hit 73° here today. My heat pump can use the rest. Stay safe everyone.

    Drive safely lisa. Seems like you have the worst weather on you long drive day.

    Garage is small so to fit two cars and 6 bikes plus yard maintainance stuff it has to be organized all the time. We sort and clean it twice a year. Tools live in the storage room in the basement.

    Good afternoon
    Like your new car steph.
    Sams definition makes me think of those on a jury. Some of them are too Dumb to get out of it. (Yes, few are ok with serving).
    Anywho. Crazy weather. It's 63 today and raining. Temps are to plummet and hit freezing tonight.
    Have a great evening.

    License acquired. Got there 1/2 hour early and was in and out in 29 min after they opened. Basically there for one hour. Not bad.

    Sadly, I really feel like poo today. So I came home and went to bed. Starting myself on antibiotics. Feels like a sinus infection coming on.

    Dogs were very disappointed we did nothing fun today. Although feeding time is always a joy.

    Sorry to hear that Lee.
    Maybe your dw will rub your back, bring you some tomato soup and fix you a grilled cheese. If that doesn't work, I'm not sure what will??
