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!

    G’Morning

    SGM - glad to hear all went well. Slow and easy. Slow and easy. Slow and easy.

    Dennis - what's latest on DB? Hope he's doing ok.

    Trash trucks and Tucker. Ugh. Him and litter were found in a trash bin as puppies. The sound of the trucks makes him very nervous. It seems to come through on our morning business walk. Ugh

    C’mon Friday.

    Sam - I can do much longer. Ugg. DW is frazzled and tired. It's tough for sure.

    Skipper

    More snow tomorrow. Ugh.

    Mornin' BBB

    Happy 96th Birthday to Sam's DMIL!
    10 degrees here...we might see 40 degrees at the end of the month per the 10 day forecast.
    I bet you thought Austin would never see this kind of weather, Lou.
    Thanks for checking in Dave. That you felt up to posting yesterday afternoon indicates a pretty good recovery from anesthesia and post op pain management.


    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning.

    Glad things went well, Dave. Will the restrictions keep you out of the shop too?

    I don't mind the occasional cold snap, Lee. But my skin dried out on me and is cracked and bleeding. No amount of Cerave seems to be helping.

    My annual physical is tomorrow and the doctor won't be very pleased when I tell him that life got in the way of doing the things we talked about last year. He'll probably use an extra finger on my prostate check as punishment.

    I would find another doctor, Lou. He sounds masochistic.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Thanks for checking in Dave. May your recovery go smoothly.
    • I talked to my DB last night. He's groggy and in pain before the next round of meds but is doing well.
    • Our cold lasts thru the weekend and then a warmer rainy week coming.
    • Happy birthday to your DMIL Sam.
    • I'm off to a dentist appt.

    Morning BBB

    Get well soon Dave!

    Dennis, good your brother is on a road to recovery and you could speak with him!

    We're Meeting an estate lawyer later this afternoon. Past time to get our life/death docs in order.

    I can't seem to here, but I did post a picture of my 6mo. old grandson on fb yesterday. He sure is a happy baby, getting big and strong, & coming into his personality. He makes me laugh often.

    We might see 10F today, woohoo double digit temps. A snow flurry later, as well. So much for a mild winter, I guess. December was nice though.

    Have a great day BBB !

    And HBD to Sams dmil!

    Morning BBB

    So glad to see you checking in Dave.

    Ron's gout is flaring so we had a super pleasant day of exploring our newest video game. He got so involved i had to force him to go to bed when he is usually struggling to stay up past 9. Bigges5 reason we bought the Xbox.

    Tonight we have a meetup with some online friends just across the bay. I wish it was an afternoon instead of evening outing as I really hate driving over the bridge at dark so mightbtake an uber.

    Off to check Mary's FB feed for baby pictures. I didn't see it in my feed this morning.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Pretty limited in what I can do, and the surgery seems to have affected my old man BPH. I got up to use the bathroom 15 times last night. Fifteen! That's a record. Fortunately, with the oxy I am taking I went back to sleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. Skip has a better appreciation than I, I suspect, of the discomfort following back surgery. I might have made a mistake, when I took one oxy, rather than the two prescribed, this morning.

    Hope your brother gets through things better, Dennis.

    Glad Ron found a good distraction.

    Happy birthday to Sam's DMIL.

    Good Afternoon,
    Dave I had a comment about restrictions then realized this is BBB board. Glad all is going as expected.
    Emmaus breakfast this morning then had physical therapy.
    I'll pass birthday wishes on to DMIL, Thanks.
    Does Ron take baking soda to help with Gout?
    Love baby pictures provided they belong to someone else.
