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.

    Morning~

    Overdid it yesterday. LoveSac killed me! FedEx would only drop at curb so I had to schlep them into garage and again down to basement. Ugh!

    Bar is coming together nicely!

    Furniture deliveries today; closet installers finish up; and storage stuff gets delivered. We are getting there! Slow but sure. Passing out $$$$ like a drunk sailor in port on payday! Hired some laborers from construction crews to move some stuff and nieces to come help set up couch they'll likely inherit 😂😂😂

    Virtual doc appt later today. I confirmed. I screwed up and wrote wrong day for a V.A. appt this week. Showed up a day early. Be darned if they didn't accept me in anyway! Score one for the good guys!

    PSS: New whip IS NOT a pickup. Pickup will not fit in garage......

    Good morning.

    I'm now firmly convinced that Skip is getting a Nissan Leaf.since garage space is at a premium.

    SKip, Nice color of the Sac . Ummm save your back Mister!

    My 2nd guess, a GMC Yukon?

    Blood work at 930a for me and Costco when they open at 10a.

    Then back to pack and be ready to leave for the lake by 3pm.

    There were 3 Teslas charging at the grocery store yesterday. Weird they have a Tesla charging island there.

    Have a good day BBB

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Get that bar stocked, Skip, I'm told that can ease that back pain.

    Already having issues with our painting contractor. They promised to call yesterday, about scheduling. No call. I'll try to reach them, today. We need a target so we can plan our own summer. DW wants to take a trip with the grandkids, maybe down the Oregon Coast, again.

    More shop time, today. It relaxes me.

    Morning BBB

    Lookin good Skip. There was a Love Sak store at the mall I worked at but they only sold giant bean bags. They have come a long way. Modular furniture is so smart as long as it is comfy.

    Put our bikes together and went for a 15 mile ride. Biking uses was different muscles than hiking. Goal is to make sure we have all the tools necessary to pack and unpack them.

    Then went to town last night and set up security cams and the vacuum robot at dad's new house. She has 3 kitties and a huge dog. They will take dad's two cats there later this summer. Farm cats moving to the *city* one is going to love it...the other I'm not sure about.

    Good Morning,
    Started day with Emmaus group,
    Trimming trees and shrubs in back,
    Looks as beginning to come together Skip.
    DS is putting a lift kit on Toad tonight, they claim it makes steering much easier.
    Hope Kris gets a good report.
    I image painting contractors are going wide open now.
    Steph, are you planning on shipping bikes ahead?
    Mary, enjoy lake!
    Assume Lee is out working with girls.

    Good afternoon

    My weight has hit a low I haven’t seen since high school. Go me!!! Finally in the 130’s.

    You should’ve gotten help with the couch. I hope that your back is ok.!? Yep. The setup of the bar will help.

    I don’t think a Yukon will fit in the garage either. I’m guessing a Jeep

    Btw. We got a Jeep suv in Florida. All decked out. SWEET ride.

    Congrats, Kelly!

    Skip drives a Wagoneer, so he likes them big. I'm going with a Mercedes GLS.
