    Good morning
    Had fun with ds. He picked Bru burger downtown Indy. It was good. I did great point wise. It was very pricey for a hamburger!
    1 order of onion rings, 2 burgers with fries, 2 Miller lites and a water. $52.
    I’m not letting the scale be my God. I haven’t weighed in almost 3 weeks. Considering weighing in the 15th and 30th.
    Dennis, glad to see you can post.
    Raine, a remember many years ago we went with a new realtor who was very young. She’d rather soak in her bikini in the sun than move a house. Ha ha.
    I’ll cbl.

    Good Morning!

    Back to work today after a four day weekend.

    Snow on the ground, but the roads should be OK. 7 degrees on the thermometer, and 0 feels like. I turned on the fireplace yesterday. It is not Thanksgiving yet. What is wrong with this picture?

    Have a great day!

    Good morning.

    It's like the engineer *knew* it' was cold this morning, so he pulled the train into the station extra slow this morning.

    I was "off" work for Veterans Day yesterday, but that really just meant that I was budgeting from home. On the plus side, it's Drink Tank tonight after work. And the running club has its monthly social run tomorrow night. So, even though it's too cold for me to run, at least my liver will get a workout.

    Mornin' BBB.

    I think I would like that kind of realtor, especially if she showed house in bikini B) I imagine that guy had been planning on competing in that chili competition for a long time.

    Only two Miller lites? You guys did good. Did that include tip?

    Raining here this morning. Supposed to be 36 degree high and rain all day in Ohio on first day of trial. Ugh. I've got UA 3.0 heat gear and good rain gear. Its gonna be a messy first day.

    Leaving after work tonight. I like driving during wee hours to avoid traffic. Plan is to stop at rest area half way and take a wee nap. Get there by 9-10 am, take another wee nap and then do some training in afternoon.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Morning, Gang~

    Back to the grind! Busy day ahead.

    I missed bikini realtor conversation!

    Snow/sleet predicted here for Thursday (bring it)!

    Hoping sea's settled down for our friends on the ocean!

    Lee - be safe! Get rest.

    Starting to work on my best Julia Childs impression and get prepared for next week!

    I'm excited to hear what's up in IL real-estate?

    Good Morning BBB.
    Well - its all changed up.
    Florida peeps out.You snooze you lose.
    A local couple submitted a contract after husband had showing with wife last evening - wife had seen the house last week while hubby out of town.
    Contract for 420, as is, mtg contingency with pre-approval, 5 day Atty and inspection period.
    All terms approved and buyer checking with the bank to see if we can move the dates up a week but not a deal breaker.
    Looks like we will be out sometime between December 9 and 15. Think Beverly Hillbillies.
    Lee - dogs with webbed feet love working in the rain.
    Steph - safe travels
    Kelly - great B-day pics
    Steve - we have used the fireplace too - so early.
    Mary - we have leaves to clean up here too - looks like we will be collecting them this week along with you guys.
    Do good out there everyone.

    Yay Raine. Great news. Seas have calmed down and all is good. The food is way too good. I've been attending a bible study on board thru High Seas Ministries. I miss my dog.

    Hooray Raine. Glad it finally came together.

    It is a balmy 9 in Fargo but supposed to be 40 and sunny later. Fargo is our 3 largest volume store and hasn't had a store manager for a couple of months. Go figure it is hard to get someone to move to North Dakota for a retail job. Finally a new guy starting soon. He is training now so I will miss him.

    Flight was delayed in Denver yesterday so went straight to hotel and ordered in food instead of finding a restaurant.

    I guess I should share the news that Emma misses you too.

    I take full responsibility that Jack and I talked a "very inebriated" Emma into getting a Lady and the Tramp stamp!

    She uttered something about - "....this will teach them to leave me home alone" or something along that line.

    Emma was noticeably regretting her decision yesterday morning. Jack let her know that "it will grow back" and the hair will cover the lewd picture tattooed on Emma's bum!

    I think we all agreed this last party went a bit too far. We spent yesterday cleaning up the joint and preparing for your return!

    Jack had a 2 for 1 coupon for Hooters so we hurried the cleanup and went out to enjoy a few pitchers and some wings before he caught his flight back to IL. Jack's a true party animal! He lied and said it was his birthday to get them to sing to him.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Great news on the house, Raine!

    Take care on the all-night drive, Lee.

    I never know what to expect from you, Skip.

    Grandkids and monthly woodturners' club meeting tonight.

    Good Morning,
    Don't believe some of the hype, Emma did great holding her on; may have taught Jack some new moves. Maybe her mom and dad are not reserved as they put on. Don't worry house is still standing, but sheriffs office may know address too well.
    Still do not have a Governor as well as some house seats, lawsuits trying to require non citizen votes be counted.
    Congrats on clean contract,
    $52.00 for burgers is a bit much but its not everyday.
    DW has what they call trigger finger, got a shot in each hand hope it works; next step will be surgery.
    Taking DMIL to Silver Sneakers this morning, trying to give DW a break, plus I'll start adding 2 more workouts each week, Tuesday and Thursday, workout in gym while she does Silver Sneakers. Workout Monday, Wednesday and Friday with group from neighborhood.
    Enjoy the Day,
    Sam I am

    Good morning

    Congrats Raine!!!!

    Skip, you in charge of cooking next Thursday? Im in charge of a fancy salad, that's it. I don't know what to do with myself not hosting this year, LOL. I could get used to this!

    Meeting dsil after work for some shopping and happy hour! So looking forward to it!

    Hoping for the warm up, water and leaves in gutters was still frozen yesterday. Thursday may be his window of opp for yard work. I suggested he leave work by 2pm and get it done. Another cold snap coming for the weekend.

    Good luck Lee, drive safe!

    Hope Sam's dw gets relief, from dm and her hands....

    Take care BBB

    Good evening
    Yes, only 2 beers total and yes that included the tip.
    Go Raine. Looks like so many want your house now. That’s great.
    The bikini blurp was in my first post.
