    Good morning
    Busy day. Up and out early. Long drive thru the country on slick snow to let a dog out.
    I want to thank you all for your kind words and prayers.

    Sorry to hear about your friend Lee.
    Does Bob recognize you?
    My friend was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. She doesn’t recognize me all the time now.

    Well, I had one of my worst nights ever, and had to cut a very toxic person out of my life. I was literally up all night, and still feel nauseated. I'm hoping to fake it through my WW meeting, then meeting with some friends who usually are a big encouragement to me. If you have the inclination, I could use some prayers on this one.

    Not sure where my first post went.

    Up early to work at the south Memphis store installing new fixture. I expect it to go poorly. An entire new management staff and a slooow work ethic.

    Case in point we were supposed to start at 6am and it is 6:45 and I am still in my car waitin for someone with keys to show up.

    I did get to drink my entire cup of coffee while watching the sun come up.

    Good Morning!

    Kelly, keeping you and your family in prayer.

    Lisa, praying for your situation, as well. Toxic people are no good. Praying that you will stay strong today!

    Busy Monday in KC today. Seeing a new dentist at 1:00 today. That ought to be fun. I have a tooth that has been bothering me.

    Have a great day!

    You can't save or help everyone. One of the cardinal rules in lifesaving class is don't let the victim take you down with him/her.

    Kelly, Bob doesn't really have a diagnosis other than vascular dementia. Originally it was thought possibly to be Alzheimer's, and it still could be, but Bob will not cooperate with testing. I think there is some Parkinson's going on because of his balance issues and periodic hallucinations, but without a series of cognitive testing its hard for the neurologists to come up with a cause for the dementia other than vascular (stroke).

    Good Morning BBB.
    It’s snowing here - okay - “UNCLE” - enough already!
    So much love and support in our BBB group - we are truly blessed.
    I join in sending love and prayers.
    Our god daughter’s wedding was so beautiful and filled with love. Tom and I are still basking in the glow. I know we are bias but it was overflowing with love and energy from this young couple.
    Sam - how is the kitchen?
    Lou - what is the update on the company re-contacting you?
    Do good out there everyone.

    Good morning BBB crew.

    Lisa, Kelly, et al - praying the day brings good things your way.

    Today is supposed to be partly cloudy and 65 degrees, here in Tumwater. Tomorrow the first in a series of storms will wash in from the Pacific. Sigh. DW plans to do yard work after we run some morning errands. Wish I could help. (Two more days with the cast).

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Wishing the Moody's my best.
    • Lisa, you are in my prayers. Hoping you get a nap this afternoon or a good nights sleep tonight. I find that is the best medicine. Remember the Serenity Prayer.
    • Let's hope Bob finds some of that serenity too.
    • Stay dry Bob and Dave.
    • How's the house coming Skip?
    • Enjoy you day off Sam.
    • First roses of the season.

    T & Ps for all of BBB and our people, pets, eachother, etc.

    Sometimes it's better to move on Lisa. Most times if people in our lives are toxic.

    Snow today, hoping the forecast is correct 60's by Friday.

    Given we cant work outside yet, We spring cleaned the entire inside of the house this weekend. Its wonderful!

    Here's to our new snow melting! Again.

    Thanks, everyone! Dennis, I've been clinging to that prayer pretty hard. And the flowers are beautiful!

    I did get a nap in this afternoon, and I found much healing in my WW meeting. It's so helpful to get out of my own head when I'm upset and overwhelmed. Interestingly, if I thought I could have found one at 8am on a Monday morning, I probably would have subbed it out. But then I would have missed out on a pretty healing time. <3
