    Gooooood morning people!!
    No damage to the roof. Trees fallen all around. No power from 330-530. I went to the store.
    Lisa, I push hard on the rower and keep it above 35 strokes per minute as long as I can then rest and go again. It’s a workout and no impact!!
    Mary, 30 years? Congratulations!!
    No snow here for snow angels but I am ready!!
    We’re hosting thanksgiving. The list of people gets long then short then back to long. Looks like 10 as of now.

    Morning~

    CONGRATS on 30, Miss Mary! Woot!

    10? Our list is up to 24..... I'm not sure where everyone will sit - but happy to have a full house to keep DMIL/DW busy and minds off the passing of DFIL.

    3" total yesterday. Did venture out for HH last night to get out of the house for a bit!

    Lo' and behold - 2 more foundation cracks discovered! Ugh! Leaks were pretty bad. Contractor coming today!

    Yay! Glad to hear Jim is on rebound and DD is doing well too! Have a stellar Turkey dinner!

    TGIF!

    Good Morning!

    Mary, congratulations on 30 years! That is an awesome accomplishment!

    Skip, leaks are no bueno. I hope that they get a solution quickly. That is the sort of thing that can lead to foundation cracks if not addressed early on.

    Lou, I'm glad that you are getting on the back side of budget season. I'm starting to gear up for year-end.

    Have a great day!

    Good morning.

    Is there a lemon law for new home sales, Skip?

    Congratulations on 30 years, Mary!

    I'll be budgeting all weekend, Dave. And we just wrapped up audits last Friday and taxes two days ago. 🙄 So, we'll go to Brazil in December and start all over again.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Yikes, Bill. Will it never end? We've been in our house 16 years and we still find things the builder screwed up.

    You're an inspiration, Lisa.

    Spent yesterday afternoon building a 2X4 and plywood scaffold to stand on, so I can replace a light fixture on the 11.5 foot ceiling of our garage. I have a doctor's appointment today, so I won't get tp the fixture until Saturday. The light quit working 10 years ago. I have been waiting for it to heal itself, but have finally given up on any fluorescent miracles.

    Morning BBB

    Snowed again during night. Tom got the entire front yard cleaned up of leaves and mowed yesterday later afternoon, before his riders battery died and all plans of finishing entire yard went south. He went a bought a new battery in hopes to finish today, darn overnight snow screwed that up.

    Meeting friends for breakfast then free pie pick up from my realtor, in turn for a food drive donation she holding for homeless vets, Im in!

    I wished I like the glow of the led standard light bulbs for table lamps, etc. more than I do.... Im not a fan. Garage, basement okay, cozy living space, not so much.

    Skip, hope you get final results with these issues and all is fixed for good!

    I hear we are upgrading our toilets this winter, how exciting is that. We're going with elongated.

    Hope Babe toe is okay and she can do her thing!

    Good to hear the house is fine Kelly.

    I need to find a fancy salad recipe for 20, to bring to Thanksgiving dinner.

    Have a nice day BBB

    Mornin' BBB.

    Trial is running... Babe's toe is better and she'll probably run late this afternoon.

    Skip, that is very concerning.

    We got 6+ inches of snow in CT. Cold and windy here in Ohio.

    I doooooo believe, elongated toilet talk is a first for our "no holds barred" BBB banter.

    Go, AB! Go!

    Kelly glad all is ok


    Mary 30 years wow.

    Made it home from Fargo last night. Was touch and go for a bit when my connection in O'Hare was coming from Cincinnati but they got us a different plane.

    Done working for the day and now off for a little nap.
