    Good Morning BBB
    All good here - my mornings are all Larry. Well, really, every free moment is Larry and then some. Tom is up north working so I have the "com." I forgot how much of everything a puppy is.
    Mary is right - Larry is Tom's shop supervisor and house supervisor too!
    Do good out there everyone.

    Good morning

    Much needed rain here

    I pick up Maddie girl dog later for the weekend. Vaccinated ds2,dfiance, are heading to FL to use tickets for cancelled trip, to visit one of their bridesmen.ds2 doesn't know him that well, so this is nice.

    Dennis, MLB didn't pick us either. Denver I here is hosting. Edibles factor maybe lol?

    Got a vent call from ds1. This job down south is giving him lots of what not to do when he lands his NCAA AD job. He says his goal is to one day be top 10 in nation. I luv that!! I told him to apply for Alvarez's open job and come back to WI! Ha, he says he anit there at that level yet.

    Have a wonderful day.

    Good Morning,
    Emmaus breakfast this morning,
    Went to replace some dahlias that had not come back, learned most tubulars are still good just deeper than others.
    Need to purchase mulch while on sale this week, will try and borrow DS's truck other wise going to take several trips.
    Hope to see Dennis and Kris tomorrow night

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Good to see Larry here. You have to wonder how long newly adopted dogs miss their K9 family.
    • DW made it home safe from a very successful trip to FL. Apparently the SUV was filthy so she wisely stopped at the carwash on the way in. We have a new one in the 'hood.
    • Enjoy your 2nd arm poke Lou. How about Cecilia?
    • Steph, I'm certified but my credentials are so old I would have to take a refresher to go diving again.
    • Where are you going tomorrow night Sam? I am going to a Songwriter's Concert in Eatonton. It's a fundraiser for the Putnam County Christian Learning Center.

    Hi all, just got back from a trip to Oregon. Met my new granddog and went skiing for 3 days at Mt. Bachelor. Between Larry and George (my daughters pup), I have a bad case of puppy fever. Been checking the rescues for a German Shephard. George was very...busy while we were in Oregon. I forgot how much work a puppy is.

    Sam and Dennis, you'll be so close! Sounds like you should probably grab a cup of coffee together or something!
    OH. MY. GOODNESS. I love Larry! I truly can't WAIT to meet him this fall! (Jim is drooling over him, too!)
    I love reading about your ds's dreams, Mary! So inspiring!
    Skip, I see you! HA!!!

    I'm subbing tomorrow and Saturday mornings ... it's good to stay busy until Jim gets home. I need to work on music, too. I'm introducing a new song Sunday called All Things New, and I honestly haven't even tried to play it through yet. But it seems easy. Much to my dismay, our service always shuts down for the summer, and since we lost our original pastor (who'd started the whole ministry up from scratch) and the guy who is doing it now is just a student and really in over his head, he's shutting us down after May 9 this year. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if we don't start up again next fall at all, and they just close the doors on us permanently. It's been very poorly attended since COVID, and even more so since the pastor left and then the new guy shut us down a couple more times. People have filled their Sunday evenings with other things now, and we haven't been open consistently enough to see any type of growth. It's sad. We used to get around 120 people, and 3 weeks ago we had 6. I'm not kidding. There were 9 of us RUNNING the service, and 6 attending. The week after that I did the message with a panel discussion, so it was better attended (maybe 30?), but it doesn't look good for our survival.
