Good Morning BBB.
Yes - I did get distracted yesterday.
Tom was pinstriping at the local HD and I organized paperwork that had built up since we moved, organized our "garage" area in the RV (we have a toy hauler), a couple followups, and a couple meetings. All good.
We are looking at lots and deciding this week - meeting with the builder tomorrow to go over specifics.
Lots of snow and ice around the country - on my.
Congrats on your new car Bill.
Steph - are you all getting close to a final deal?
Do good out there everyone.

Mornin' BBB.
LOL, happens to me all the time, Raine. At least it was a good distraction. My distractions tend to be disasters lately.
My informal search for a smallish two person camper with a toilet has yielded some interesting results.
Great afternoon with pups. Sorry, no photos Skip. I was all by myself, high on a huge hilltop meadow. Cold. Doggies loved it.
BBB OP ;-)

For Skip...they also have a bourbon one (might be hanging in my truck)0 -
Morning~
Back to the grind.....though all indications point toward another shutdown on Friday. Ugh.....
That's a helluvva setup there for Tom. HJ is such a good supervisor!
Glad you got to unwind with the gals, Lee! Best therapy in the world: dogs.
Everything closed here today or delayed opening; wintry icy; freezing mix overnight. ugh.
Black Beauty staying inside today.

Good morning.
My Black Beauty's sole purpose these days is to give Cecilia a backup for driving to work when she doesn't want to fill her own car with gas. Otherwise, it's just weekend errands for her these days.0 -
Morning BBB
Driving to Kansas in freezing drizzle again. Ugh. When will winter ever end. Training the new store manager today then to Central IL to do more in Wednesday.
Our sales guy wasn't sure when he would actually be able to place the order. We speced it out and then came home and caught one mistake that we emailed him. He was able to submit it but didn't get a confirmation. He will get that when they assign it to a build location. Skip I bet our Mercedes is cheaper than yours. We are just over $58k but it has all the bells and whistles so we are happy.0 -
Good morning BBB friends.
Love hearing about new cars and vans. Our "new" car is 11 years old.
More snow forecast for Tumwater, today. I'll be shoveling again. I woke up with a seriously stiff neck, too. Sigh. I try to just stay home when it snows. I have lived in some serious snow country in the past and get around pretty well, but you can't allow for the other dimwits out there. Have to get out soon, though. Rita and I have dental appointments tomorrow, plus we're running out of coffee!0 -
Good Morning
Welcome back Kelly!
Nice photo of your boys, Raine!
I slipped on snow covered ice and twisted my knee yesterday, it'll be fine Im sure. My brother had to go crawl up his steep drive on all fours after sliding down hilled driveway to get his mail at the road. He couldn't even walk on the snow covered lawn, everything is iced over here after rains on Friday and temps dropped, then some more snow on top of it. Maybe the kids across his street are making a youtube on that one.
Expecting another 6-10 inches depending on where in Wisconsin tomorrow, oh joy.
Its bring Maddie to work day. Her humans got back late from MN last night driving in the horrible snow conditions. They say they'll bring me lunch and come pick her up from my office. She's one happy dog!
Black Beauty! I like it, Skip! She is gorgeous!
Hope Rita is finally feeling a lot better, Dave!
Have a good day BBB!

My idea of a "Black Beauty"
R.I.C.E. Mary. (rest, ice, compression, and elevation)2 -
THATS a great looking Benz, Doc! Urban'esque.....
Mary - yikes! Those conditions would shut DC down for three days!0 -
Good morning BBB Friends.
- Welcome home Kelly. In this weather I'm guessing you are ready to go back.
- I"m thinking a bourbon smell in your car may not be wise.
- I had breakfast with the ROMEOs this morning.
- Drive safely, walk safely and stay warm BBB.

Just got in from 1 1/2 hours shoveling last night's snow off the drive and our walkways. Also cleared the gutterin front of our drive and cleared the storm drain, there, so when this turns to rain there is somewhere for the runoff to go. How many activity points would I get for that?
It's snowing pretty good, right now, but when the rains come, my drive will melt, while my neighbors' turn to ice.0 -
Good Afternoon,
Dave, if you lived near Skip he would clear snow for you; hope Rita is better.
Beautiful adoption Skip, afraid Black Beauty will be hard to keep clean if allowed out.
Spring begins March 21st, of course in some Northern states there has been snow in late May.
Some may need to think about following Raine and Tom's example; Welcome South
Welcome back Kelly, rounding effects of cruise will go away after a couple days of fasting,
After trying to treat myself with home cures and oils, then round of doxycyline, DW forced me to go to doctor, now steroid breathing treatments 3 times a day. Seems my lungs sounds like a brass band; I have a good case of bronchitis
DMIL pulled a corner of toe nail off index toe, this caused an infection, DW took her to doctor who gave her some antibiotics and told her it should clear up in about a week, seems toe was inching so DMIL was kicking ottoman instead of scratching, foot swollen; seems she broke toe. Was scheduled to go to Savannah to see her grandson with DSisIL, doctor said her traveling would not be a problem. DSisIL said she would have cancelled if she had know mother had broken foot, DW assured her doctor said it would be no problem
DSisIL and niece returned DMIL Sunday afternoon took less than an hour for DMIL to get on DW's nerves. DSisIL says she does not know how we deal with DMIL, believe she now understands why she needs to take care of her mother at least a couple of days a month, will not hold breath waiting for it to happen.
Enjoy the Day,
Sam I am0 -
Lee, this could work! Plenty of room for 2 dogs.
