    Good morning BBB friends.

    We're the only wearly risers, Raine.

    Building a protected wood storage "shed" on the side of the house, so I can make room in my small shop. That will probably require at least two planned and two unexpected trips to the hardware store. We have Home Depot, Lowes and an Ace all three miles away, in different directions. I alternate just for variety's sake.

    Good morning.

    I'm off to the Farmers Market in a bit to help register people for the Rotary 5k & 10k on 7/4. Have to get in my service time when I can.

    I have a countdown item too. Not as glamorous as retirement or weddings, but it's what I've got. We found a cheap fare on an Alaska cruise in August. We're talking bring-your-own-oar cheap.

    Morning....up early to go across town to buy a Wheelchair and Video monitor for DFIL. The scare this last week demands we have an alternate way to get him out of the house in an emergency. Of course the "Hot Light" at Krispy Kreme was on - so the Jeep made an auto pilot detour.

    Off to look for bedroom sitting area furniture. Oh boy.

    Have a great BBB day!

    Good Morning,
    Worked WW meeting this morning, new meg, leader had not even turned unit on, not set up. Fun; NOT.
    We are scheduled for Alaska cruise September super deal, got e-mail other day trying to sell excursions, they are more than cruise and air fare.
    For past year have said if Krispy Kreme HOT sign on will have to stop, have not seen HOT sign therefore I have not had a donut in over a year.
    DMIL just got back from FL started talking last night about needing to go eat shrimp.
    Enjoy the Day,
    Sam I am

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Stayed up late last night watching the Braves 15 inning marathon. The good guys lost.
    • Alaska cruise should be fun Lou and Sam. There are some good deals out there.
    • Emma had her yearly check up yesterday with all the routine shots and some non-routine ear yeast treatment. Her neck started to swell as a reaction to something but appears to be better this morning. Yes Lee, we were in touch with her Doc.
    • Good luck Monday Jack, or should I say break a leg?!?
    • T-2.

    Good morning. Yep. Still morning.
    Tell me about this Alaskan cruise? How many days and where are you actually cruising?
    I was up too early letting my neighbors dog out. Then grocery store, bank etc.

    We had an AMAZING meeting this morning at the women's house! Wow! It was a great way to start the day. Later on I'm the speaker at a shindig tonight (which of course was a perfect excuse to buy new bling), then we have Dd26's MIL's 50th b-day party to attend. That will be a bit rowdier than we are used to, so we'll probably not stay too long.

    Sam, how FRUSTRATING that the leader hadn't gotten that all set up! He/she should have had all the people entered already so that it was easy to process in the moment. Razzle frazzle!

    Alaskan cruise is on my bucket list. Though I am more of a State Room guy; not big on rowing. Can't wait to hear about your experiences Lou/Sam.... Have a super b-day celebration tonight, Lisa! Bling it up!

    Back from chasing 30 million year old fossil whales,dolphins and so much more in the desert of Peru. Completely amazing adventure for sure. Also an excursion from the desert to the coast where we saw flamingos,pelicans, penguins, boobies, sea lions, and more. Gotta get caught up.
