    Good Morning BBB.
    Great training yesterday then hit Costco on the way back. I could get used to this area real fast.
    Tom is pinstriping today and I am doing follow up and paperwork then I'll go meet up with him.
    High 60s -70s at home and most friends are out riding.
    ARCA race yesterday and so it begins!
    Dog beach tomorrow and lunch with friends.
    BBBers are healing and will be ready for spring.
    Bill - any CO house action?
    Lisa - call me when you have a minute and I'll set you up.
    Dennis - are you riding after church?
    Mary - healing is better sitting outside.
    Do good out there everyone.

    Mornin' BBB.

    Raine, South Florida is a great place to visit and I adore the Keys (especially for the fishing), but I would prefer to live a bit further north where the weather is a bit more temperate year round . Like Virginia/Maryland...might even have grandkids down there in time.

    As usual, I push too hard and pay the price. Difficult to sit through dinner at our local tavern with DW last night and then knee was pretty achy in bed and made it hard to sleep for more than an hour or so at a time. Took some pain meds eventually, but they seem to have an adverse effect on quality of sleep too. Good news is no harm done, just gonna take it easy today with stretching and let PT guy rip me a new one tomorrow. In retrospect, I would advise anyone having knee replacement to wait at least 4 weeks before trying to go back to work, maybe even 6 weeks...but just couldn't make that work this time. Hopefully, next time I will be in semi-retirement.

    Mary, how are you today?

    Skip, report!

    Dennis and Sam...enjoying your weather?

    Lisa, tell us how Etta Mae is doing.

    Kelly, you are a good daughter.

    Bob, you getting some miles in on your bike?

    BBB OP ;-)

    Morning~

    Up every night this week till late. I hate MLS has much as loathe Home Depot anymore. Threatened to sue an seller agent last night. He had the audacity to call my mortgage banker and began asking "where does he work, how much money does he make, how old is he" questions. No No No..... ALL questions that are illegal to ask! Fired a cannon across his bow!

    Is Happy Jack a Vice trained K9 yet?

    Take care of that knee, Doc! I begin PT 22nd. Can't wait. VERY stiff by the end of most days.

    Gamma's Rock!

    NASCAR today! There is a God!

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • I set the alarm for 4am so I could get up and get us started. I wish. I didn't sleep well.
    • Careful Lee, follow the Drs. orders. Don't mess the store bought knee up.
    • There may be a little scooter time after church. The weather is definitely nice enough. I worry for my friends on the west coast though. Too much rain. You okay Bob?
    • I have this vision of Skip watching the fast cars turn left with a phone in his ear yelling at a realtor.
    • Like Lee I'm looking for an Etta Mae update.
    • Get well Mary.
    • I'm with Lou!

    Lee, do I have to come there and make you rest??? Take care of yourself!
    Skip, you are feisty, right?
    Raine, I'll call today. :)

    Etta Mae is doing great! She's snuggled up beside me right now. We are struggling a little to get her used to other dogs ... I guess show dogs don't do much socializing with other dogs. But we'll get there.

    We did lots of cleaning/organizing yesterday. That was the WW topic this week, and I'm inspired. I'll try to do a bit more today, after my nap, which I need because dh was restless all night and kept me up. Luckily, he's sleeping now.

    Lee - I have a daughter in DC-Maryland and I hope to see more of her when we move down here. I love the warm weather and figure we can visit the "seasons" when needed. Plus we will be going back up north for work etc so ... we originally looked at the coast of NC but definitely prefer Florida gulf.

    Morning BBB

    Need my BBB prayer warriors. My mom got admitted to the hospital yesterday we thought for a bad reaction to meds from an ear infection. They are now flying her to a bigger hospital. Think it might be meningitis.

    We are driving there now.
