    Good morning!

    Bill, I'm praying that you and Heather can get finished quickly in moving your things from your old condo. You are finally doing the real work to get to Oregon! How exciting! (I know that it will be more exciting when you can rest a bit.)

    Connie did great on her Endoscopy and Colonoscopy yesterday. They found one small polyp. Other than that, they didn't find anything which is good, but does not get her any closer to figuring out these IBS symptoms.

    I'm getting real tired of fixing Frankie's *kitten* bonnet every five minutes. She shakes it and paws at it until her good ear is free. Then she can't see. I'm about ready to go buy her a cone, but we need to keep that right ear from flapping until it can heal some. I'm wondering if a plain ol' bandana would work?

    Mowing the yard today. I'm hoping that's about it. I was so tired last night that I fell asleep in my chair at 7:00.

    Have a great day!

    Mornin' gents.

    There are snuggie type ear bonnets that may be more tolerable for Frankie.

    Try your local Petco.
    Signed the offer for the wee farm in Monument CO.
    Still taking deep breaths, not 100% sure it is the right move, but "happy wife, happy life" right?

    Onward and downward ;-)

    Good morning gentlemen.

    A happy wife is important, but you count, too.

    Had a wonderful, but very hard, steep hike, yesterday. I've done this trail plenty of times, and it never gets easier. The steep downhill return is almost worse than the climb. The payoff in spectacular views makes it all worthwhile. Only 12.4 miles, but 3,600 feet of climbing, mostly over less than three miles. The patrol cabin at the edge of the meadow was built in the late 1920s. The view of the cabin with the mountain behind it was used on a postage stamp years ago.

    Good Morning,
    It has been my experience that most spouses are happy when they get what they want till something else comes up they want or they decide they made the wrong choice.
    Very wet here in Tennessee and storm has not even hit coast yet, will be traveling home in storm Friday.
    Glad prep for move is continuing as planned.
    Steve, is Connie taking metformin for her diabetics; that often causes stomach issues. DW had to get her doctor to change her meds.

    Good Morning

    Exciting trip to the transfer station this morning. A trash truck emptied its load just down from us. Then another one came. Pushing hard and running on fumes but we are on schedule. Realtor signage is going up as I type.
