    Good Morning BBB.
    Drove into a big rainstorm before and through Atlanta. Decided to stop for the night in Emerson(I think). Hello to Dennis and Sam. Heading out soon. We still have a long day's drive.
    Time to pull out the winder clothes.
    Lee - I'll take the tropical weather over the cold any day of the week.
    I hope all BBBers are healing and feeling good.
    Do good out there everyone.

    Morning
    Be safe Raine.
    We're trying to book our trip to englewood in may. Looks like this will most likely be last family vacation. Who knows? I thought the same thing 3 years ago.
    Had friends over for dinner last night. I baked a ham and made these ham sliders. Wowzer. Super good.
    I have plenty of leftover ham and I froze the ham bone. Looks like beans and cornbread is on the menu soon.
    I made the decision to go back blonde. It's the right thing to do. 3 pm today and I can't wait.
    Met my bf yesterday and instead of cocktails we went for pedicures with one in our hand. Ha ha. Had a great time.
    I forgot yesterday was Ash Wednesday until I saw people in the grocery store.
    Have a great day.
    Is that crazy dog eating pickles and ice cream yet Lee??

    Mornin' BBB.

    Babe is so clingy, its beyond cute. X-ray on March 13 to see how many pups.

    Ham bone makes good lentil or bean soup.

    When do you think you will make big move, Raine?

    Definitely starting to get baseball itch. Fantasy draft is March 19.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Raine, if you made it to Emerson you made it through the Atlanta traffic. On the banks of Lake Altoona. Enjoy the rest of the road trip. Hi to Tom and Jack.
    • Kelly is going to be blonde again. All is right with the world.
    • I have a pre-surgical visit to the Dr. today. To ensure I am up for the event.
    • Skip, the Braves play the Yankees in the last spring training game of the year in Suntrust Park on the 31st of this month.
    • Vote for Lou!

    Good Morning!

    Safe travels, Raine! My DBIL and DSIL visited FL about 5 years ago, and ended up moving down there. They love it. They live in Ft. Meyers. Connie and I have talked about it, but we have not gone down to see them yet.

    Speaking of baseball.... Our company owns four season tickets to the KC Royals. Boss asked me to print out all of the individual tickets a couple of days ago, so that he could start "playing" with them. He sorts out what he wants, what he give to customers, staff, etc. I'm not a huge fan, but ready for baseball to get going again.

    Have a great day!

    Morning all

    Did a Zumba class on the beach this morning and kayaking in the mangroves planned for later.

    Apparently you did miss one Skip. Next Friday I am having my headlights re-aligned. Or should I say I'm having a correction for a lazy eye. The Dr. would call it Strabismus.

    Morning BBB

    Enough snow my honey cleared it last night. In bed early, up late today, I was tired. Have to remind myself only 2 wks post op today. Needed some sleep.

    Glad you are in a happy place down there, Steph.

    Safe travels Raine and family

    Wishing good pre op Dennis. Any progress on the hearing aids? You should get them, its a world of difference, quality of life thing. You all may or may not know I wear them?

    Have a great day!

    Good Almost Afternoon,
    S. Fla is way too hot for me in summer, been there done that.
    Safe travels home Rain, Tom HJ, fingers crossed for movie.
    Steph, glad you are able to enjoy VaCa
    Mary, glad you are healing; use to folks had to take 8 weeks off when getting neck slit.
    Advantage of hearing aids is that those not use to one hearing say things they don't mean to be heard. As DW told audiologist she now has to watch what she says around me.
    Been a little under the weather past few days, hopefully on the mend; back at work anyway. They are enjoying my not being able to talk here.
    Enjoy The Day,
    Sam I am

    Whats got you ailing Sam? Hope you feel better soon. And yes, ds2 moving back in with me over last six months, hadn't lived day to day with me since me getting my newest state of the art digital aids. Which basically pick up EVERYTHING - even sighs. LOL Nice part too, I can turn them off LOL.

    Dennis, they are a brand called Resound, out a company in Denmark. Amazing. I can even operate them along with any "smart" tv, ipone/android etc if I want to, or not. Best thing I ever did for myself. A entire new world of living opened up to me.
