Good morning BBB.
Tom is home!!! All is good.
Got my Florida license plates for the car and motorcycle - plates for the Mini Moke will wait until we research value and insurance options. Tom is keeping his Illinois residency for the foreseeable future.
Meetings today and Tom and I will erect the "clam" tent to use as storage and shade. Between that and the canvas gazebo we will have a wonderful compound.
Dave - you may want to consider selling your turned projects in a local gallery. I think people will love buying them.
Lou - I'm not sure what to say except I hope all went well.
Dennis - where in Texas and how long will you be there?
Lee - how was breakfast and the trial site you scoped out?
Lisa - make sure to up you Omega intake and let me know if you want to talk about what I use to address arthritis.
Kelly - how did Henry's class go?
Sam - good to set limits on how much time you will give to others - as much as you give they will take.
Do good out there everyone.

Mornin' BBB.
Enjoyed breakfast with Billy and his wife Hazel, at a Greek diner no less. Billy doesn't feel that the grass cover will be good enough in April for a trial. Time is running out. Got to secure a property in next week or we won't be having a spring trial.
Interesting that Tom is remaining an Illinois resident. There must be a benefit?
Dave, I agree that there must be someone willing to take those bowls off your hands.
Dennis, are you all gonna wear diapers so you don't have to stop except for gas?
Lou, how did pap smear go?
BBB OP ;-)0 -

Safe travels Steph.0

Good morning
I cN see a little better. I’m able to get thru the thread anyway. No glasses. I did not read yesterday’s though.
Class for Henry went well. I do think they could work on professionalism and fix the doors that don’t latch. Henry will challenge every door now. Errrrr
Friends over tonight for big steak dinner. Shopping tomorrow. 3 weeks until the cruise. Woo hoo0 -
Morning~
And the showdown continues. But a day of work without pay is not as scary as what Lou was going through yesterday...... SMH!
Glad Tom is home!
Hopeful to meet pal at brewery later today before snow rolls in. Its now quite "freezingyourassoff" but it has reached "buttasscold" today!
Neighbors birthday tomorrow for twin 4 y/o's. Crap - what do you buy 4 y/o boys? I'm out of touch with toys!
Safe travels, Steph!0 -
I need to read about Lou. Buy a 4 yet old boy a small pup tent.0

Get them matching BB guns, Skip. Or fireman hats with battery operated lights and sirens.0

Good morning.
I think I just dogulated, Kelly.
I don't know your financial situation, Rayne, but one of the things that the new legislature will look at for IL is lowering the threshold for estate tax to help balance the budget. He may want to cut ties unless he's got a voting streak he wants to maintain.
The doctor's appointment, Lee.

I think Tom is just taking one big task at a time - his priority is building his business in Florida and if he takes on the task of changing his residency now he will hit overload.0
-
I can sympathize with Tom, Raine.
Lou, I knew it was the good old "finger wave", but couldn't help but notice in the photo that it was "PAP" lube.

Good morning BBB friends.
Saw something about a full lunar eclipse. Wish I could watch it, but it will probably be overcast.
Feeling ok, today, just a bit congested, now. I can deal with that. Well enough that we agreed to take the grandkids for the night. Their parents are hosting a movie night at their house, so DW wants to have movie night for the grandkids, here. Maybe some classic Disney. I'm baking them some mac and cheese, for supper (never the boxed stuff).0 -
Good morning BBB Friends.
- Skip, I guess a bottle of Woodford Reserve would be out of scope for the twins?!?
- I guess Lou and I took the same dance this week. I just got a call from the Urologist that my PSA is moderately high. It's been that way for some time so we watch it closely.
- DW and I are heading to Milledgeville, GA today for a little shopping. At one time it was the Capitol of GA.
- Next weeks trip is to Waco, TX. The wedding is just north of there in Hillsboro. We are driving but no marathons. Two days each way. We'll be gone for about a week.
- I'd buy a Dave turned bowl. Just sayin'.

Good Morning
God has answered prayers here in Wisconsin! 13yo. Jayme Closs, was rescued yesterday after witnessing her parents double murder and her abduction in Oct! She actually saved herself, got away and ran to a lady out walking her dog for help, neighboring house took them in and called 911. God is good.
Enjoy movie night Dave! If you ever want to sell a bowl, Im in the market
Went in halves on a Costco membership with my bff and walked around there last night. Unimpressed, as I knew I likely would be LOL. Pricing of stuff I do buy in smaller qty's was only a couple of cents less per each. I did buy a $5 chicken, and a nice vanity mirror with led lighting for 14.99, $5 off. The cashier says "oh you found a gift for yourself"!. I said, no that's for him, he needs to pluck his nose hairs. LOL The look SO gave me was priceless. The lady just giggled and moved on.
Raine its sounds like things are coming along nicely in the yard!
Enjoy the day BBB. Be happy, be safe0 -
Good Morning,
Is there a pet owners obedience class? should work both ways, just saying.
Dave, I'll love to purchase a bowl you turned for a dough bowl.
Safe travels Steph, watch back loading truck.
Tonka is always good for boys,
Milledgeville was also known for the state's mental hospital,, just saying
Wish we had a Costco, nearest is lots of traffic and about 50 miles away
Will try and post DMIL escapades later,
Enjoy the Day,
Sam I am

•Raine. I loved the teensy little Mini Moke we rented in Australia to drive around Darwin and to the hotel. My wife was a bit embarrassed when we drove up to the hotel where they valet parked it. I liked driving it because we needed to drive "on the wrong side of the road" in Australia and I could feel more comfortable lane position wise or curbwise since it was very small. Glad Tom is home for sure. I do like your part of Florida.
•Pet owner obedience classes have always been at least as much or more about training the owners as the critters.
•Yup safe travels Steph and all others too whether by land air or sea.
•Hang in there Dennis and Lou with the PSA testing. reminds me I would like to get another one done soon.
•Dave glad to hear ya doing better. Last time I tried singing it didn't work out so well. I use to be able to sing a wide range clear up to tenor but my throat isn't doing so great now.1
