Morning~
Wish I could snap my fingers and have today over with. Gonna be a long one to include a marathon HOA meeting tonight. The 'hood was part of an attack yesterday. Some screw loose came to our community pool maced the staff in the shack and tried to leave. Tackled/arrested. Insane!
Work has me about as stressed as I have ever been. Really hoping my boss returns but I know he's not going to.....burning off his sick leave in prep for retirement is my GUT reaction!
90+ yesterday, today, and forecasted for tomorrow. Hopeful to get some pool and puppy time all day tomorrow and through the weekend.
Had to order some new trim for '78 project. Upholstery guy called yesterday with bad news that the moldings for carpet replacement couldn't be saved (cracked/split). Hoping to have back in my stall by next week sometime!
Not a minnow or fishing guy here either. But I am confident that I can select the best looking tuna steak at Whole Foods Fish Counter
Hope all are well!

Good morning BBB friends.
Alone has been one of my shows for years. It airs on Thursday nights on the History Channel.
Successful morning sitting by the lake, yesterday. I read half of an escapist paperback (a western) and caught my limit of trout.
Skip, I feel for you. I went through a stressful period my last two years of work. It is tough when you find yourself dreading going to work every day. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. Your beach house is calling to you.0 -
Good morning.
That's nuts, Skip! I hope they beat him up a little bit to serve as a cautionary tale to others.
My niece's trip resets tomorrow and rumor has it, I might be allowed to sleep in my own bed tonight. 🤞

Good morning BBB Friends.
- Sleeping in your own bed is a major achievement, Lou.
- There are times when I think I should have stuck with the work life longer and there are times that I know I made the right decision. Mostly it is the latter.
- HOA training class today.

Morning BBB
Its a gorgeous morning sunny and 70! Climbing to 80 maybe, just perfect.
Coffee on the deck and I will soon going to log on server.
Looking forward to being a home this weekend actually. Friday night is the Lions Days festival with high school friends, Saturday night dinner and a movie, Downton Abby. Sunday, Tom's going with his kids to see motley crew and def leopard, poison. I passed. I'm looking forward to some alone time. Concert imo Not worth the high priced ticket money. Or the crowds. At what point do these 80s rock bands retire? They are all in their 60s and 70s! Can't hit a lot of those notes anymore!
Hope your day goes fast Skip
I bought my 1st papaya ever yesterday....at Aldis for .95 cents. Now to cut it up.
Be well BBB

Mornin' BBB
I am not a fan of the Memoji, but I do Luv me sum Skip and Tucker.
Did the guy get sent to Bellevue for psychological evaluation?
Sorry about the job stress. If the boss leaves, are you in line for the job and if so, do you want it?
Just got up from a wee nap after a very successful night in the Salt.
Thats one of my fishing buddies, Dave. We can only keep two fish, we caught a few more than that. No worms or minnows involved.
BBB OP ;-)

I’ll have to add Alone to my queue. We are currently watching all 4+ hours of the Tour de France but it will be over soon. Our housesit has the full cable package so I think anything should be available to me. I have a pretty long list. I hope they have showtime…I hear there is a new season of Dexter. And I hope I can find Amazing race. It will be harder as CBS is pretty proud of their programming and often doesn’t stream old stuff for years.
Game night was fun. Played a new roll playing game in the beginnings of testing and the one called Savage that goes to kickstarter this week. A couple of beers and home at 10:30 so today is sleep in day. Pool guy has been here for about an hour but will likely head out there when he leaves.
All you fishing peeps might have heard of my cousin. His name is Dan. He is pretty famous in the fly fishing world. Wrote a book or two and does random charters. Mostly known for amazing photography I think. He plans to retire from full time work soon and just be a guide all over the world.0 -
Dan Chloupek? I want to say yes, but I googled and nothing.0

Nope last name Fraiser0
