Pour yourself a mug of your favorite morning brew. Pull up a chair and join us for our morning roll call here on the BBB.

Good morning BBB Friends.
- Trip to find BMW battery was successful yesterday. BMW motorcycle shops are nothing like Harley shops,
- Couple of good football games scheduled for today. You know where I'll be.
- I'm off to work AV at the early service.
- Have a great day BBB.

Morning BBB
Pouring rain this morning. Washing up the blankets and pillows cases while we have a huge washer. Hopefully the rain breaks soon so I can hang them out to dry.
No real plans today. Pretty sure football won't be in the mix.0 -
Morning
Bachelor’hood with Mr Coops today and tomorrow while DMIL & DW head north for a funeral. Good thing footballs 🏈 is on today to keep me amused.
Snow is gone - and Jeep is filthy. Hope I can get it cleaned up today.
Lou - I needed that LT weapon. I’m still reeling from being called out TWICE for the whole room to hear, that I was on LT and back as a loser.
Cheers

Could be interesting with the games today. I have no predictions as I have had many surprises this year. My wife is from Wisconsin so I know where her allegiances lie.0

Dd23 has decided to let us give her a baby shower, so yesterday morning her bff and I bought out Hobby Lobby. I swear I keep that place in business! I'm hoping to dig into the flowers and such today a little bit. That creative process really, really fills my cup.
Then last night we had one of my lead guitarists and his girlfriend over for dinner, rehearsal, and a movie. It was our first time hanging out with them, and we had a great time! Songs this week are a bit older ... Oceans, Grace Like Rain, In the Sanctuary (very funky), and Hymn of St. Patrick (one of our favorites). We watched Shazam, which was funny and sweet and really entertaining. Definitely a great family movie!
Today is food prep, maybe working on flowers, and church. It's been snowing pretty nonstop for a couple days ... hopefully that won't keep too many people away. I have a potential new sponsee coming who's been struggling and could use a meeting and a fresh start.
Oh! And for those of you not on fb, Dd28 announced this week that she, too, is having a boy! So we'll have TWO grandsons this spring! Woo-hooooooo!0 -
Good morning BBB crew.
Don't know that I will watch football. The grandkids are over, again, and if it isn't raining, we might take them for a hike in the forest. Now, if the Seahawks were still playing (It wasn't a first down!) I'd be glued to the TV.
Have a great day, all.0 -
Go Pack Go!
Sorry we sent ya the snow Lisa. Should be interesting to put a couple boys into your crew, congrats! Boys are fun!
Heading to church with my friend and fam her lost her hubby last last.
Then stopping for groceries. Hoping ds2 and dgf want to come over for the game and eats. I got white chicken chili and our game snacks will be chicken buffalo meatballs and raw veggies w/greek yogurt dip.
Watched the Aaron Hernandez (NFL New England Patriots ) Netfix documentaary last night. Did that kid ever screw up his life royally.
You all have a great day!

Afternoon BBB.
Snowed last night. Shoveled and threw snow this am.
Settling in for Chiefs vs Titans. Pot of venison chili simmering.
Enjoy the grandkids, Dave.
Congrats Steph, Lou, Mary, and Skip on being such losers. Dennis always seems to sneak under the wire too.

Congrats to all losers!!!!
Busy day yesterday, DMIL's 92 birthday party drained me. She said she wanted a perm, I asked her if she still had all supplies except perm, replied yes. Get to beauty supply store and she wants rollers, wraps, caps and bottles; no I'm not buying all that stuff I'll just pay for someone to give you a perm and cut your hair.
Been looking to replace DW's vehicle, she test drove one Thursday; we discussed what we were willing to pay and what dealership was willing to give, all verbal; received written offer more than $4,000 over what we discussed. Seems on a 2019 they have added dealer options since Thursday and want doc fees as well as service fees, I spent too many years working at dealerships to fall for their games plus we do not have to trade vehicles. Life is better when things are wants instead of needs.
Steph, retirement is really working for you; being active and eating healthy; CONGRATS, don't hardly know anyone that still hangs clothes out to dry, we did until moving into city.
Hope yaul keep your snow up there, we have cold but don't want water mixed with it.0
