    Morning gang.

    Busy week getting the store here set for holiday. It is a train wreck. I feel bad that I am leaving today but honestly I could stay for a month and not sure they would be ready. The pace of workers here is so different than the Midwest.

    Headed home late this afternoon.

    Morning! Twice in one day - impressive.

    How is DH feeling?
    Raine - Na'hwlins called, they said you left some beads??? B)
    Bet HJ was glad to be back with you and Tom!
    Field & Stream, Doc! Love it!

    Big Happy Hour tonight. Meeting a former PhD student who has started their own business for a possible position with them. Shall see how this goes.

    PT late this morning. Busy day.

    SGM - you could be on active duty tomorrow! Good stuff!
    Lou - good luck tomorrow with your meetings!
    Mary - when is the "official move day?"

    Couldn't stay awake, but great for the Astros!

    Mornin' BBB.

    Steph, kinda like "don't worry, be happy".

    Babe is running a trial with BTG in Altoona, PA today. Tess and I are on our own.

    Good Morning,
    Lee, have a nice day off.
    Raine, glad you and Tom had a good time; safely back home?
    Steph, traveling can get old.
    Steve, hope you and Connie enjoy vacation; always great to get away from daily duties,
    Lou, hope you receive a great offer this week.
    Watched DMIL eat 17 fun size candy bars last night, went downstairs at 8, came backup at 8:30 with a box of wine and filled a wine bottle she had under arm and a tea glass to two fingers. How does one get 2 fingers on a tea glass, take a 20 oz. glass, hold top of glass in palm with thumb and two fingers wrapped around the top and fill to bottom of fingers, should yield about 16 oz. And she only had two glasses!
    Enjoy the Day,
    Sam I am

    Good Morning!

    Two more days of work before vacation. Tried out the new hot tub last night. It was awesome! I hope to use it very often. I think that I slept better last night too!

    Sam - love your DMIL stories! Sorry that you get to live that.

    Have a great day!

    Good morning.
    Sam, it was only 2 glasses of wine if anyone asks!
    DH is not well. He is going back to the doctor this morning.
    Not a whole lot going on here other than me lifting anything over 10 pounds. Pretty much everything weighs over 10 pounds. Gotta do this for 3 more weeks and 4 days.
    Steph, amazing that Christmas is right around the corner. I forget where you’re st but it doesn’t sound like you have very hard workers.
    Church tonight if DH is up to it.
    Good luck with HH and the interview.
    Other than that. I got nothing.
    Make it a marvelous day.

    Good morning BBB.

    The rains have returned to the PNW. So much for our week-long repreve.

    Having a lot of trouble with my basal joint arthritis (my thumbs hurt). It's troubling to my manhood to have to ask my 4' 11", 102 lb. wife to open jars for me.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • How 'bout them Astros! What a rags to riches story. I'm happy for the city. They needed something positive.
    • Steph is having trouble adjusting to our slower style of living in the South.
    • There is nothing like Snickers and cheap wine.
    • We may need to send some of that cheap wine to Nurse Moody in IN. Ah heck, give her some Snickers too.
    • Now that Steve has the hot tub broken in it's time for a party.
    • It's a good thing the SGM has a mini-wife to help him out.
    • I'm gonna go fuss around in the yard.
    • I'm with AB and Lou.

    Ouch Dave! My probably 4'11" DW still has me open jars. You still look great as Sargeant Major.
    •Lee good luck headed for Babe and Tess.
    •Kelly, hope DH improves soon.
    •Sam and Candy Girl DMILOH MY!
    Nice to see Astros win a world series. Verý entertaining series.

    Hey BBB

    I'm sitting at new space, with the chair, I brought along I'm waiting on the cabling crew who is now 1 hour late, sigh.

    Office move is Nov 8 and 9, kitten, I think that's next week oh my. Owner is in town he needs to go back home LOL.

    He says hey let's grow the company I think I'll be more involved. Really, hmmm.

    Better get a do not disturb sign for that basement door, Steve. Wink wink.

    Welcome home Raine, Steph etc.

    Hope dh gets well, soon Kelly

    Good luck AB

    Skip, what's the job about?

    I’ll take a double shot of wine and snickers!!
    DH needs to take it easy. What the kitten? He’s not doing anything. Ha.

    what is wrong with Mr. "he's not doing anything?"

    PT is going AWESOME. Did some planks today and mobility is really picking up! Still some tenderness bending - but all signs point to return to running in the spring!

    Job is Chief of Staff for a government consulting firm. I doubt they can afford me - but we'll see :-). If nothing else, I will get a free Happy Hour and steak dinner to listen to their pitch, right?
