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.

It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

    G’Morning

    Nice walk in trails through new ‘hood where Tucker met George the lab/collie mix. Instant friends. Afternoon shopping for throw rugs and towels and new bed ensembles. Ugh. I was able to dull the pain with copious libations.

    Uneventful Derby.

    Booked two trips for side job this morning that pays pretty well for little work.

    Enjoying coffee. Can’t move. Tucker curled in my lap.

    Cheers
    Skipper

    Mornin' BBB.

    Getting Lucy's eyes check by veterinary ophthalmologist today. Hips and elbows pending. May never breed her, but good to get done just in case.
    Tucker and Lucy would be friends. She is way more social than Babe.
    Off to make a house call for a friend. Then play with the girls. Eye exam this afternoon.
    Hope Tom and DGD had a nice b-day celebration.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Got the last bid in for painting the house. Just the painting and basic prep was almost double the other bids. For repairs, they would charge for time and materials, with no prior estimate. Guess we will go with the middle bid of the three. It's really high, but I have more confidence in the renovation part. At least we can pay for the work. DS's old farmhouse needs a new roof and they're talking about taking out a loan to pay for it. I like just writing a check.

    Church, this morning, then lawn work this afternoon. It's a jungle out there.

    Good Sunday morning BBB Friends.
    • In the words of the mortal SR, I've been churched and schooled.
    • I'm with you Dave, happiness is when unpleasant bills don't break the bank.
    • I need to go shopping for tomorrow UMM breakfast and then get up way before I'll want to tomorrow morning.
    • What is it, about 2 weeks before one of us moves into a new house?
    • enjoy your spring Sunday BBB.

    Beautiful Sunday here in SE Wisconsin

    Baby Lauren came.over for 3 hours this afternoon, while her mama went shopping. She slept the entire time almost.

    Tonight we will go into downtown Milwaukee for a show with Brit Floyd. Not a fav of mine, music wise, but we do these things for our partners.

    Count down to move in day yet Skip? Getting closer! When is walk through,?

    Be well BBB

    Hi all

    Nice walk up to the malecon and watched a graffiti demo. O thought about signing up for it but it's from 11-6 and lots of sun. We watched for half an hour or so and may go back later today ie this week to see the finished product.

    We got our first gig in New Zealand. Two kitties on the ocean for 3 weeks surrounding Christmas. Probably the only one we will apply for in NZ. Maylook for one or two in Australia.
