Good morning BBB! As you sip your favorite morning brew and let its warmth embrace you, settle in, for it's time to gather and unite for our morning roll call!

    Good morning and TGIF!!! What a busy and profitable week

    We’re having a big cool down this weekend thru next week. We will try to get into the pool at least once more before we close it. And the last two weeks it’s been a real scorcher.

    Headed to Wisconsin tomorrow morning early early with my mom so she can finally see ds1’s apartment and life. We will come back Sunday morning early afternoon.

    Have an awesome day.

    Good morning.

    A weekend of the pool, football and beer, Skip? Nice.

    They're teasing us that we may drop out of the 100's next week and may even get rain. We need it. All boat docks on Lake Travis have been closed because water levels are too low now in this drought. And I'm kind of tired if 86° water coming from the cold tap. On the plus side though, we don't close pools this far south, Kelly.

    Step count is still in the toilet this month thanks to the heat. I have a perfectly good gym membership that I could use, but that would involve looking the part instead if just using the treadmill in work clothes.

    Morning BBB

    We are riding 30 miles to Scottsdale to meet a couple of other nomads that are in the area for brunch. We will uber home as it will likely be 110 by the time we are finished.

    Made black bean soup yesterday so lunch is ready if the brunch menu is lacking in vegan items. We are going to the same brewery we have been to a couple of other times but I never paid attention to the menu and the online version doesn't look too promising but I think they have several daily specials too.

    Our pool is down to 84 from 89. Ron thinks it's too cold but I'm still happy to float around for a bit.

    Good morning BBB

    Safe travels Kelly and DM, cooler here to finally. Suppose to be a great weekend weather wise.

    Have fun at game Skip, bet ds1 is there as well. His fav pastime...that and golfing.

    Lee love the new photo you posted of little Laddie! Any plans for a visit to USA or you back to them? Must be hard with the distance!

    Enjoy your brunch meetup Steph. So does the Uber come with bike racks I assume?

    Our lake level is way down as well. So much so dh trailered up the boat last Sunday. We may or may not put it back in lake tomorrow, we will see.

    Community dead wood pick up by lake town municipality is Oct 1, so dh wants to start to clean up some dead trees on new lot. He will chainsaw, I will drag to roadside. I Should get some exercise in that. Ds2 will come next weekend to help him with the bigger stuff.

    We are meeting some lake friends tonight at the lodge for music by DJ Angie. Whom we think is actually from our Homestead area that we have seen here before. We will find out if she indeed is same gal. Lol weird if she is there.

    Have a great day BBB

    Good morning BBB friends.

    I started logging in an hour ago, but Sassy had other plans for me. First, she whined to go outside, then she pushed her way onto my lap. And a 60-pound golden on you lap leaves no room for typing.

    Hope the soreness goes away quickly, Skip, and that pain relief follows. I am having one facet joint epidural on the 19th. There are other nerves needing attention, but they said the injection is diagnostic, so they want to limit what they do and observe the results. I think they just want to get more procedures, so they make more money. As long as they are competent, I am ok with them being money-grubbing. I'm not paying, Medicare is, with my military coverage taking care of any co-pays.

    I would’ve thought that the injections were to alleviate pain, not cause it.

    Lou, I get around 10-12k steps each day

    Steph. Did you go to the museum in Scottsdale to look at frozen heads? You know, Ted Williams????
