    Good morning 😃

    I’m up. Have a big list of stuff that needs done today. Hope to get it all done by noon.

    Mary, love your side hustles!!

    Lou, I remember buying the packs of gum. I thought it were 7 sticks per package. I don’t recall the price but I’m guessing 25 cents.

    Steph. Safe travels to your next stop.

    I’ll cbl

    Mornin' BBB.

    Happy 10th Anniversary Lou! Were you referring to your final paycheck or your most recent paycheck?

    Mary, you have got to be the busiest person I know. FUSCBE?

    DW and I attended a get together at DS#1's future in-laws yesterday afternoon. Social distancing was in practice and we were outside. It was sort of a Jack and Jill for DS#1 and his fiancee'. DS#1 was present virtually since Ft Rucker orders are for him to stay inside a 100 mile radius of the base. Met most of the maternal side of the family. DW and I were the only ones present from DS#1's family. I, of course couldn't keep my mouth shut and let it slip what I did for a living, and then all the conversation was about everyone's dogs. When will I ever learn?

    Hope Kris is on the mend, Dennis.

    Hoping for some heirloom tomatoes soon. Maybe next week.

    Nats spanked the Yanks last night.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning BBB crew.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't decipher FUSCBE. Google was no help.

    DW and I had a lot of points built up at a local casino, before the pandemic stopped our gambling. Last week the casino sent us a notice that we were going to start losing those points, since we were inactive. Yesterday we drove over to cash them out. They were making a great effort to be safe - temperature check at entrance, etc. But is still creeped me out, a bit, to be there. We stayed for about 10 minutes. We'll be back when there is an effective vaccine.

    Fed U.S.Census Bureau Enumerator lol.

    I recall I mentioned I applied, then everything halted when pandemic struck. Well, we back in business and I'm offical.

    Hot here today. I'm going to start some computer training online inside anyway. Chingching. Wonder if Sunday is double time on line. Probably. 😉

    Ds1 and his best friend since grade school, who happens to be in town too, from NC, are golfing 18 at 11am anyway.

    Tom got all his mulch done and its gorgeous. I will post a photo on my face book page since I cant here.

    Lisa I see is with the family on her annual lake cabin vacation trip.

    Safe travels Steph!

    Dont work too hard Kelly, its Sunday after all!

    Enjoy pool time, Skip

    Doc Lee, good you met ds's in laws though. Dw was likely snickering quietly lol.let u do all the dog dr advising lol.

    Morning BBB

    Our homeowners didn't get home until almost 7 but bacause we have an 11 hour drive to sister's we headed out. Stopped about 11 and camped near a little lake. Barely saw it as we were up and on the road by 6. Yawn.

    We are trying hard to get there at a decent time today so BIL will help install the hitch on the car. GPS says 2pm central time without stops. I have soup to heat up on the camp stove for lunch.

    Congrats on 10 yrs Lou.

    “I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't decipher FUSCBE. Google was no help.”
    Me either until just now. Ha. Thanks Mary. I knew you were doing the census thing. Just couldn’t figure out the acronym. Ha

    Steph, did they not offer for you to stay another night or did you not want to?

    Dave, never pictured you and Rita as gamblers. Ha. You do know that DH works at the casino? He’s the state police. Crazy stories. Absolutely crazy.

    I’m getting in the pool later.

    I’ve got this house in tip top shape.

    My car is up next but it’s HOT OUT

    Lee, that would drive me crazy too. Like my dr friends. They never want to be introduced as dr. Just “ this is my friend Samantha.” They lose enjoyment for the evening. Once people find out they’re a doctor some people are over the top to accommodate them. Not me. Ha.

    Guess I’ll get busy on my car. Ugh.

    LOL, Mary, you are absolutely right. DW wandered off to look at fiance's mom's garden (which was very nice).

    I tried google too, ha! No help at all.

    Why do they need statie po-po at the casino?

    Hi everyone! Yep ... we just got back from our annual trek to Burt Lake, up by Mackinaw. For the first time ever, I took the entire week off and stayed. Usually I just do a half week. It was fun! Crazy, too, with 3 babies in the house. We had 9 people (including the 3 little ones ... 1 who is 1, 1 that's 3 months, and 1 that's 2 months) in an 800 sq ft 3 bed, 1 bath cabin, then another 5 in another that was only 2 bedrooms. I spent a LOT of time rocking, walking, and singing to babies, which totally filled my bucket! :) It also wore me out. Ha ha! The quiet of our house right now feels really nice. We just picked up the dogs, so all is well again in our world.

    Pics are on fb, if anyone wants to see. There are about 220 of them (I can't imagine anything you'd want more, right? hahaha!!!), and my account is public.

    Steph, one of my best friends lives in Laramie! I want to go there someday!

    Good afternoon BBB Friends.
    • Working worship service and Sunday school this morning. We are streaming both now that we have some folks physically there and some watching from home.
    • I had FUSCBE figured out except for the E. Who would have guessed Enumerator? I now know a high government official in Milwaukee.
    • Skip, did you catch the end of that Braves game? Down by 1 with bases empty, 2 outs, 2 strikes in the 9th and come back and win.
    • Apparently Happy Jack is appreciated across the country.
    • Welcome home Ms. Lisa.

    I did already stalk your 220 photos, and loved them. Lisa, how else did I know where ya were! Looked like great fun!

    I'm actually now living and side hustling for a county north of MKE, Dennis. Dont think I'd have taken the hustle for city of MKE, not in today's times. Let's just say I moved out, for a lot of reasons...

    Hotter than the desert here today!!! I'm hiding inside.

    Allow me to correct myself. I now know a high government official in greater metro Milwaukee. All the same to us Southern Boys. 😎

    I also understand the desire to get out of the big city, especially these days.
