    Morning BBB

    It's weird being in the early time zone. :). I get here much earlier.

    Worked almost 14 hours yesterday. made a bunch of progress and will head to the other store later this afternoon.

    Mornin' BBB.

    How the tushy feeling today, Skip?

    Still very muggy here. Good for the 'maters. Giving away lots of tomatoes. Had another BLT last night.

    Good Morning BBB.
    Rain here yesterday and more expected. Sunday Tom spread fertilizer - we only use Milorganite - should help the grass get stronger.
    All this talk of fresh, garden grown produce is making me jealous - I’ll have to head over to the farm stand and get corn and tomatoes.
    Reduced the listing price to $449 - new listings and existing listings are all doing the same thing - what a shame. We had dinner with friends that moved to Florida 5 years ago and travel in their RV during the summers. I realized that. Need to go back through the boxes I packed and cull out stuff that I will never need in Florida. Better to do it now than pay to move it and store it.
    Steph - my brother has the Mercedes camper van. I think it’s 18 foot. Very tight but he and his wife love it. They use it regularly but only for max 2 weeks at a time.
    Kelly - rain moving through you area.
    Dennis - a dear friend recently got hearing aids and she appreciates most of the sounds but she does shut it off when she doesn’t want to hear stuff - eg her husband chewing :D
    Do good out there everyone.

    Morning~

    Ahhhhh, Raine! I'm hoping this will move SOON! You and Tom need out of there.

    Have fun at Dinner tonight. My invitation must be lost in the mail. Was never part of the cool kids club anyway.

    Will try bike again later today.

    Big VFW GM Meeting tonight RE: No Football viewings 18 if there is continued kneeling. Last year I almost quit the Post over this debate at our GM meeting....hoping tonight is less drama.

    Cheers

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Ah, the great kneeling debate. Talk about a tempest in a teapot. I do not understand why this is such a big deal to so many. I say, if you don't like something, don't watch. But don't dictate what others watch. THAT is un-American, to me. Hope all goes peacefully, Skip.

    Housing markets are weird. Our neighbor, four houses up the street, just sold his after listing it for two weeks and got $20K over asking price. Your home is beautiful, Raine, it makes no sense that it hasn't generated more interest.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Good luck with the house Raine.
    • It's not often I wish I was in Indiana but tonight might be the night. But then again I didn't get an invite either.
    • It took awhile for me to realize GM meant General Membership and not General Manager. Good luck with that.
    • I figure if all the people who don't like football players kneeling during the National Anthem turn off the TV, don't go to games and don't buy the sponsors products they'll get the message. The NFL is a product. It's getting to the point I don't like the product.

    Milorganite… yeap from MKE, we too use it on the lawns and in the gardens. Tom puts it in the spreader and does it 3 to 4 times a year. Early May, End of June, Early August and again in October.

    Had a nice visit with my aunt and cousin yesterday. Back in office today, blahhhh

    Have a great dinner and swim tonite at Kelly's house, ladies!!!!

    I thought the NFL was coming to a player contract agreement on the no kneeling thing, like stay in the locker room if you do not want to stand for the anthem or be fired?

    I could live in our camper 24/7, especially alone, or two people tops. Live simply! An old friend of mine in early 40's found her calling and has been accepted into a Catholic church Franciscan Sisters and got rid of pretty much all her stuff...

    Hope you are feeling better and better Lee!

    Raine, sending positive vibes for an offer. I guess chef backed out totally now?

    Have a good day BBB
