    Mornin' BBB.

    Dave, that is a beautiful entrance to your home. Your DW is quite the gardener.

    Helped DW finish off Mother's day cake last night. Yikes. Gonna have to cinch the belt rest of this week.

    I'll probably purchase plants this Thursday to plant in straw bales...they are definitely ready. Internal temperature is down and mushrooms are starting to grow.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Dave, beautiful yard and home,

    Good morning, BBB! Sorry I've been MIA ... we're getting down to the wire here, and I'm a little distracted. But all is well! I hope you all are doing great!

    Skip, congrats on the new home! Sorry about the paint thing ... people make mistakes. Luckily, that is an easy one to fix! :smile:

    Good Morning BBB.
    Rain has ended here. Everything looks so green.
    Lisa - great to “see” you.
    Sam - people are funny.
    Lee - I bet the cake was good :D
    Do good out there everyone.

    We got a wallop of a storm last night! No damage - but it was quite a storm.

    Today begins more fun of repainting walls that should have been done; garage floor epoxy install; beds delivery; and small punch list with builder. Me dad arrives tomorrow to offer some assistance. I'm still feeling punch from the festival this past Saturday. Or perhaps its just nerves and anxiety - either way, stomach hurts really bad. Haven't eaten/slept for two days. Ugh....

    When is the big day, Lisa? I say we all crash the event in Tom and Raine's new toy! Road trip!

    Cheers, Gang!

    Good morning BBB crew.

    Lots of excitement at the new house, Skip. I'd take vacation time to lurk around and annoy the contractors.

    Lisa, I remember the anxiety my DW went through leading up to DS's wedding. I had thet laid back attitude guys take on big occasions. I checked off things that were taken care off, she constatly focused on everthing she could imagine that could go wrong.

    Last night, the AC kicked on, for the first time. The furnace was running last week.

    Good Morning!

    Skip, congratulations on the close!

    Dave, your house looks awesome! Wow!

    I was surprised. I only had 262 new e-mails at work, and a 3 inch stack of paperwork. Most of the e-mails have been trashed, and my zen is still in place. Short week this week, as taking Friday for my Birthday. Our company gives your birthday as a holiday. Then next week is Memorial Day. I like May!

    Have a great day!

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Coffee and chatter with the neighbors this morning.
    • I'm with Lisa. Paint is easy to fix but yeh, it can be aggravating.
    • Glad to hear your work world didn't fall apart in you absence Steve.
    • Starting to get ready for Boys State which starts next Friday (5/25).
    • Lisa and Skip. Remember to breath and take it easy. I hears Starbucks helps.

    Good Morning BBB

    Exciting times Lisa!

    Skip, relax, it'll all work out, always does.

    Sam, that's so funny, they've had her what a couple of days. She needs to alternate every other month between the two places. Make that happen. You and DW need the break! LOL

    Im starting to not want to work real job, and stay home and play in my gardens. Have coffe and chatter on the patio! I'm pushing to get everything done by memorial weekend, so we can just kick back, water and enjoy!

    Trailer got sold prior to their showing schedule last night, huhhhhh? Really now. That's not nice. Oh well, onward!

    Im going to start seriously looking for a new vehicle. A Small SUV.

    Be safe, be happy BBB

    Skip, YES! Crash the party! How FUN would that be!!!
    Dave, I'm pretty blessed to not be stressing much. I'm busy, but not overly anxious. :) It helps that I've coordinated a good number of weddings, and I've cultivated pretty good coping skills over the past few years. Oh, and I have A LOT of wonderful people helping me. I'm keeping my expectations to a minimum and my patience to a maximum.
    Dennis, I like that idea! Or Bigby. Or McD's. Or whatever, as long as it's caffeinated.
