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!

"Just as a dog finds joy in the simplest of moments, may we seek happiness in every fleeting second." 🐾🐾🐾

    GM~
    • Puppers has an upset stomach and has been lethargic all yesterday and had diarhea spells overnight. Oi!
    • Super tired today.
    • Appears the Cyber attack is still preventing many at MGM to do much more than watch and wait. Ugh.
    • Hopeful for some pool time this afternoon.
    • Bocce last night was fun. I'm starting to get better and had a great partner. We won.

    Cheers,
    Skipper

    Good morning.

    It's raining!!

    Of course, that's going to inconvenient for our outdoor film shoot that's happening today and tomorrow, but I'm sure they'll figure out how to work with it somehow.

    Donor event today and tomorrow will have me in San Antonio and then I go right into Rosh Hashanah. The danger is that I have to drive past the outlet mall on the way down there and Cecilia is playing stowaway spouse on this trip. Thoughts and prayers are appreciated.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Still dealing with MGM's hacking issue. You have to admire the efforts of the workers to get through it. Sadly, many guests are unsympathetic. We have seen some angry people. We have been able to get around the issue and still eat mostly on the house or with a steep discount. We have even charged a couple things to the room. They are taking down a lot of paper notes to account for later. Going to have to hire an army of clerks and accountants to straighten everything out when this is over.

    Walked down the Strip to the Wynn and Encore yesterday, where all was normal. I lost, but had fun. Walked 8 miles, according to my phone, and my hip/leg was really bad by the time we got back to our hotel.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • I got up early and went to a 'boot camp' exercise class at our clubhouse. I could only handle half of it and didn't excel at the half I completed. These are all people my age group, so I guess that means I better go back.
    • What a mess for MGM. I was thinking you could walk down the street and put coins in the competitors slot machine.
    • I like fall beach time after the crowds leave. Have fun.

    Hi all. Apparently I didn't log in this am. We went for a walk and then picked up new pillows for the homeowner that arrived this week.

    Applied and were granted our Australia visa. Need to do NZ but Apparently it is way less easy so one at a time. Cleaned the kitchen good so will just need to do a touch up on Sunday. Tomorrow I think we will do one last bike ride before Ron starts to pack them up.
