    Good morning.

    Day 1 of the conference today. I didn't sleep well last night and my schedule runs until 11 tonight. 😴

    Good morning BBB friends.

    I didn't sleep well, either, but I have no conference to torment my day. An afternoon nap will be in order.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • I guess I should keep my good nights sleep to myself.
    • Good luck today Lou.
    • I think Skip is grappling with where he needs to be and where he wants to be. I can relate. I had the same issue last month. It's not easy.
    • Is the kitchen ceiling getting repaired Kelly?
    • Neighborhood meeting / social this evening.
    • Have a good day BBB.

    Morning BBB

    We signed up for weekly cleaning yesterday. Comes to approximately $30 week,not including laundry. Sounds like a bargin to me.

    Our trip to the supermarket yesterday was disappointing. Didn't have a very good produce section and the line was LONG. Will try the fruteria on Thursday as I hear that is when they get restocked. So far this has been the worst mexican city for groceries. By far. We may have to go to Phoenix more often than I planned.

    Good Morning,
    Skip, do what doctor recommends; in long run will be best for you and Carrie. Funerals are for living hopefully soul of loved one has gone to be with lord.
    Sounds like a very long day Lou, that's why they give you a few bucks.
    Tears in knee, will start with shots to satisfy insurance believe surgery required; nerve damage in elbow will put on hold for now, shoulder will require surgery but wants knee stable first where I will stop falling.

    Hi, BBB'ers
    • The jury has spoken and I will stay home this weekend. The four-hour trek to the funeral, no matter how we arrange the backseat for a ride, is just too precarious and dangerous. Alas, I've arranged for home health care and will stay here to recuperate.
    • DW is staying busy preparing to leave tomorrow. Thankfully, most of the arrangements were already in place. Visitation Friday; Funeral Saturday. I am finishing up the eulogy and will record it for playback during the service.
    • Recovery is going VERY slow. The bruising/black and blue is sick looking. Scraping that hip bone is the worst. I can barely use the left side (leg) to get in bed. The pain pills are "helping" but barely.
    • Thanks everyone for the T&Ps and where needed the KITA too! I grieve for DW and sad I can't be there for her.
    Cheers,
    Skipper

    Get well Skip, I agree that you are making the better of a hard hard decision. (((CARRIE)))

    Sam hope you heal up one ailment at a time. And then onto next.

    Top Chef on TV tonite is in MKE, cool.

    The shitshow in FL continues. Smh

    $30 a week for cleaning house, where do I sign up. Congrats Steph!

    Sleep tight BBB

    Ceiling is patched. Still not done. Just drywall in place.

    Best wishes skip to you and Carrie. I can’t imagine how difficult this must be.
