    Good Morning BBB.
    18 degrees and a wind chill in the single digits - I think we have killed the mosquitoes!
    Picking up pepper and cheese tamales and taking them to my favorite (local) vet. (Lee, you are my favorite vet <3 ) She is our team vet and the vet for most law enforcement K9s too - she does a monthly stop with her mobile vet clinic in the town just over from us so we try to visit. I have a healthy Christmas present for her too!
    All these wonderful muggings - I love this tradition. Again, thank you for organizing Lisa!
    Dennis - migrating to iPhone is easy and you may get hooked on the ecosystem - :D
    Bill - so excited that you are truly on the road to a “normal” life - well at least physically normal! Dennis nailed it - Green Acres!
    Do good out there everyone.

    Good Morning!

    Skip, take one of those "big bubba" thermos thingies to SBUX this morning. Gallon size! Still happy for the progress with your back! Awesome!

    Thinking of Sam this morning, and praying that the docs can help him out today.

    Speaking of DVMs, I'm pretty happy with mine right now too. Lee, you are still my favorite, as well. Sally has a baterial thing going on. Cultures will probably say ring worm. Ugh. Back in her nether regions. Not fun.

    The muggings is an awesome tradition. I love it! Thank you, Lisa!

    Have a great day!

    Good morning.
    Raine. You’re a very kind lady.
    Yep, Lee is my favorite vet too.
    Electrician coming today. I’m getting can lights and a ceiling fan where none existed. Hope they turn out great.
    Make it an awesome day.

    Sam - sending prayers.
    Lisa - looks like you are going to get more lake effect snow!
    Kelly - takes one to know one!

    Good morning BBB.

    Hope all goes well, Sam. I have an appointment myself, this morning, about my thumbs.

    I have enjoyed all the muggings. Grateful that you all have welcomed me to the group.

    Another chilly day in Tumwater. The frost doesn't thaw, so, as it builds from day to day, it starts to look like snow in our yard. Can't complain about the sun, though.

    Mornin' BBB.

    Love being the favorite.

    Great to have you here, Dave. Hope you can find a good solution for your thumbs.

    Good thoughts and prayers, Sam.

    Poor Sally! The nether regions are never a good place to have a problem.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Morning bbb

    Enjoying a egg and ham burrito and my coffee before heading to the store.

    The corporate jet arrives late this morning and the chaos they will bring. Board of directors meeting and walk through tomorrow. And then I’m taking a few days off.

    Good morning.

    Subway changed their hours and screwed up my morning routine.

    Now that I'm properly fed, I'm going to Whole Foods to fill my mug. It'll probably be iced coffee by the time I walk home with it.

    That's why you keep a bottle of bourbon in your desk, Steph.

    I'm here! I just have such a hard time keeping up with everyone these days. And I hate posting when I don't speak to each person, so when I get overwhelmed I just don't post. I should try to get over that.

    Skip, good to hear you've been healed! *cue the angel music*
    Raine, you crack me up! Ha ha! "Killed the mosquitoes" ... what a great way to find gratitude in this weather! Our schools are cancelled today, which kinda surprises me. It doesn't look that bad out there to me, but then I haven't left the house yet, either. I will soon.
    You're welcome, Steve! I enjoy the tradition, too. My cupboard has much love in it these days. :)
    I hope you love your new cans and fan, Kelly!
    What's up with your thumbs, David?
    ((((Lee)))))) You're my favorite vet, too!!! Etta says "woof"!
    Steph, here's praying that visit goes well. Enjoy your time off! I'm sure it's well-deserved.
    Lou, how DARE they! Should we all write sternly-worded letters?

    So, to catch my non-fb friends up on my recent events, I ended up with a nasty chemical burn in my eye on Sunday night. It. Was. Awful. I spent the evening back and forth on the phone with Poison Control, and ended up not having to go to the ER. It looked horrific, but it's almost normal again now.

    Also, we had our family pics on Saturday, and the weather was exactly what I'd hoped for. I'll attach it here. I am super-happy about it! Photobucket was doing a 90% off sale on printing yesterday, so I ordered a 24x36 wrapped canvas of it that would normally cost $619 for $74 (including shipping). I can't wait for it to arrive!

    This weekend we have a wedding to attend on the other side of the state. It's one of our good friends from college, and this is his first marriage. He's 48 now, and I'm so happy for him! And I have a fabulous new navy blue velour dress and new bling to wear. :)

    Good meeting BBB Friends.
    • Wow! That's an amazing picture Mama Crozier. Glad the dogs were included.
    • So we all agree Doc Lee is our favorite Critter Fixer. If we could only get him to make house calls. First stop, Kansas City.
    • Phone migration went well yesterday. Made me look like I knew what I was doing. No Raine, I'm not drinking the kool-aid.
    • Best of luck with the People Fixers Sam and Dave (Soul Man?).
    • I'm off to WW with DW.
    • I'm with Lou getting some hot coffee.
