Good Morning BBB.
I may never get caught up reading post but ...
Sam - I hope you are better soon.
Lisa - praying for negative results - I love your perspective. Thank you.
BBB get together sounds wonderful. Can't wait to hang out.
Do good out there everyone.0 -
Good morning BBB crew.
Nice to see Raine starting things off.
It is getting close to the time of year when mangoes arrive in the Asian markets. So today, I think, we are on a mango quest. There is a large Filipino market up south of Seattle, so that is where we are going. March to June is about the time that you can get the good ones.0 -
Morning gang
Hugs Lisa. Speedy recovery to the infected.
We are heading to Charleston later this morning. Couldn't find an airbnb that was within our 'budget' that also met all of our requirements, so staying at a Homewood suites with points.
Ron is all packed and ready to go so I hope he goes for a run so I can enjoy my coffee before we pack the car. We don't need to leave here until 10.
Excited to see and hear about the meet up. So exciting.0 -
Morning~
Lisa - oh no! So sorry to hear this. I know its boring. But thank you for taking the extended precautions! T&Ps all are safe!
Great WI this morning - down 3.9# again this week.
Headed to H&N later to enjoy some me time and will likely enjoy a couple hours with pals tonight watching game.
Cold/wet/rainy here.
Excited for the BBB roundup!
Good luck on mango hunt!

Mornin' BBB.
Skip, you a real loser! Congrats!
Lisa, prayers for all. Good job quarantining.
Steph. If you ever decide to come out of retirement, I think you could do well in the travel biz.
The Mango Hunters. By John Grisham. Dave and Rita had no clue of the twisted undercurrents in the mango trade.
Returning Keller to his owner today after my passport renewal appt at the post office. Driving up to Vermont. Babe really likes him other than just as a baby daddy. He is just a cool dog.

Lee - do you have a fedora with a feather sticking out and a long trench coat? Reminded of the Richard Pryor line....."pimping aint easy."

Good morning BBB Friends.
- Sorry to hear about the Covid issues Lisa. I hope everyone is okay.
- I had my 2nd shot on Thursday and I was one sick puppy yesterday. It appears I am much better today which seems pretty normal for the people who do get the side effects.
- Lisa, the new house appears to be fine. I appreciate the more affordable rate. I can see us all sitting around the fire pit.
- Enjoy Charleston Steph, it's a great city with tons of history.
- Happy mango hunting Dave.

Morning BBB
I hope you are ok and all others ok in Lisa's clan. Pretty hard not to hold babies!
Gonna miss going with you guys. I hope we can do another one in 2022! Glad to have had Kelly and Steph and hubs visit us this year. Our home is open to any passing through always!
Kelly when you coming to see ds1 again?
I'm researching shin splints. Yeap, I think thats my pain... hurt my leg bad. I think from treadmilling after little exercise. I'm icing it and taking ibuprofen. I could hardly get up some stairs last night, Hurt so bad. Thats what I get for being pandemic lazy the last year.
We were suppose to go look at RV's today thats not going to happen now. Darn. Too hard to do the up and down stairs I think.
Starting to plan a couples wedding shower for June with my sister in law and niece. Here at my house. I need to find a rental tent, tables, chairs, I think for about 24.
Then also trying to brainstorm and call around for the rehearsal dinner, the grooms family is taking care of it, thats me
places are offering separate dining room setups.. but no buffets. So I think I'll do limited menu options, etc.let them have 3 or 4 choices...
Talking about doing the flowers too to save money, I am ready to increase some more $ to my donation to the wedding, to say just let's order them... we will see. Even so, they have a budget, a tight one.
Be well BBB hugs

If they're okay with silks, I do weddings, Mary. The silks are WAY cheaper and can be done early so you're not scrambling in those last days. I could even give you any info you'd need to do them yourself. I've done around a dozen weddings (including all my daughters') ... I used to own a business doing it.
And we are really going to miss you, Mary. And Lou, too. I was sad that you had to pull out.
I'm playing music at a wedding in Wisconsin in early June this year. I wonder how far it is from you? I honestly have no idea where it is.
Yay for your vaccine, Dennis! Woot woot!
Lee, I'm glad it's more than a one-night-stand for Babe ... she deserves love!
So Dd29 got her results, and she's positive. Their household, because of the kids and the potential for them to get it at any point, are quarantined for 20 days now, until March 16. We'll probably be doing regular grocery runs for them, provided we're healthy. So far I still feel fine, and it's Day 7 since I was exposed.
I had a frantic call from my manager this morning, actually. A Coach near us was sick (I didn't hear what), so another coach who lives closeby took her in-persons, which meant that that coach subbed out HER in-persons, and I took the virtual for that 3rd Coach. So, I did a virtual in Illinois at 8:30. I had a grand total of 10 minutes to get ready - thank goodness for makeup and hairspray! Ha! But I was glad I could help. This week's topic was, imho, spectacular. I was happy to get to do it once more before the week's end.0 -
Good afternoon.
Prayers for you all Lisa.
I’m behind on reading. Just super busy.0
