    GM~

    * Lou, how is C feeling and moreover, how are YOU? Presume you are back to the grind today?
    * Dogs @ a brewery are the best! Tucker loves going w/ me and all the extra attention!
    * Sam - how was your BD celebration? Hope you didn't pass out with a lamp shade over your head!
    * Hope you get the shoes/fit you want, Steph! How are the Lexus' to drive? Vroom Vroom!

    Had a neighbor (presumably onset ALZ) bang on our door and enter when Carrie answered door - the whole time murmuring "...who the *kitten* are you!" She had to remind him he parked in our driveway and lived two doors over. Retired Army Col from Maine (ironic). mid 80's I'm thinking. I got home two minutes later - but wife was pretty shaken up (as you recall, our last neighbor front door experience brought out half of the Sheriff's office)!

    Long week ahead. Hoping to get to range to hit some balls sometime in there.

    Cheers for a great day/week!

    Good morning BBB friends.

    That's a sad story, Skip.

    A cool, cloudy day in the forecast. I need to sand some park benches at church, today. I volunteered to refinish them, before somebody gets splinters. There are six benches. I think I'll get to two, this morning. At least the weather is cooperating.

    Morning BBB

    Yikes. I'd be wary of answering the door. Hugs to Carrie. Grandpa had ALZ and I found it was easiest to diffuse the anger by just agreeing with whatever he was saying that was "crazy"

    Put Ron's bike together yesterday and somehow the gear cable got messed up. Took to nearby bike shop, diagnosed for free, charged $30 to fix. Could have done it himself at home with all his tools and a stand but would have been a PITA here. Hopefully mine will go better. It got too hot to do mine yesterday.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • It was good to start my day with the ROMEOs.
    • It's a cool rainy day here. The cool is welcome. We've had too much rain lately.
    • It's been 7 days with the new air conditioner. Life is good.
    • DB was sprung from the hospital and slept in his own bed last night.
    • If he is not violent remember the Old Colonel is a fellow Vet. Hopefully he has a spouse / friend who looks out for him.
    • Church council meeting later this afternoon. We vote on whether to disaffiliate from the United Methodist Church or not at the end of the month.

    Good morning.

    May I recommend an isolated cabin in the woods for your next home, Skip?

    Cecilia was up hacking a good portion of the night and relocated to the couch at some point. I'm okay but am really behind on things at work as you'd imagine.

    The Covid count now sits at 4. My father, both brothers and former SIL all have it. She thinks she may be patient zero because there's some sort of outbreak at her office and she was last there the day mom passed. So add a few days where she was constantly with us and that could check out.

    Good Afternoon

    I'm knee deep in emails but making my way through them and keeping my laundry going.

    Going to be hot here today

    Hope those Lou's camp feel better soon

    Does this sit have a pool Steph?

    Have a good day BBB
