Good Morning BBB.
Hours and hours of packing punctuated by moments of panic. I did get a pedicure yesterday - a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do.
Veteran's Closet is coming to pick up a ton of stuff this morning - yippee - they do not pick up but the founder and a couple guys are doing me a favor and coming with two vehicles. I feel so blessed.
The Mike's Hard Lemonade shoot was rescheduled several times and now it's back to Friday.
Dennis - feel better soon.
Bill - I hope you nip the icky in the bud.
Do good out there everyone.0 -
Mornin' BBB.
So DM and DS are coming to live with you, Skip?
LOL, Raine. Yep, some things need to be taken care of no matter what.
Dog training with the Greek this am and then meeting a friend to hunt over his Munsterlander dog at a public hunting area this afternoon.
BBB OP ;-)0 -
Good morning
Raine you have s lot on your plate right now. Praying for you.
This is gettin good. Dm and ds moving in? New stories to come. Woot!!
Had girls night. I offered my stupid drunk friend a ride and a place to sleep. Nope. Really ticks me off in a whole new way.
Dinner tonight with Heidy. One of 6 children. Just the two of us for her birthday. She gets to pick!
I’ll cbl.0 -
Good morning.
Because my day wasn't long enough already yesterday, I got dragged to the mall last night for dinner and to return a couple of things that ended up chewing up 90 minutes of my downtime. So, I'm irritable today. And I have my first two of five board meetings today.
Christmas shopping is done. It's very easy when you don't like people.0 -
Morning BBB
Drive on icy roads for about an hour yesterday afternoon. Saw 3 semis in the ditch. Two upside down.
Getting a cold so might knock off work early if I get my list done.0 -
Good morning BBB Friends.
- Ok Steph and Skip, take care of yourselves.
- I am seeing some positive impact from the drugs. I believe I am on the upmend. Of course, DW is now coming down with it.
- We are supposed to go to a banquet in No. GA this weekend for our Past Director of Boys Nation. It is an overnight trip and I've been looking forward to it. I hope we are well enough to go.
- Hang in there Raine. The end is in sight. Think warm, sandy beaches.

Good Morning
Caught a bit of snow here for the drive in, not much though.
Routine annual mammogram this afternoon. Did lab draw yesterday for physical next week. Results posted already, are numbers are in normal range. Weight is up, but I know that.
Raine, your a warrior, you got this! Glad you have some help with pick up.
Skip, Im guessing you mean your mother and your sister? Don't have a clue on that backstory but sounds like there might be some stress there ? Take care of yourself, hopefully all is going to be just fine. After all, tis the season
I found a new village pc that didn't get in the initial set up last weekend. Now, do I call in the construction crew and take half of it down to make it fit, or does the "ranch" go up next time?
Big college hoops game for me with my 2 big brothers and 25 of their high school alum friends, Class of 1974 (yikes they are lol). Kansas State and my db1 best friend coach Bruce Weber are playing Milwaukee Marquette at the new Fiserv Forum arena here on Sat. What an amazing venue that is! And coach meeting us all for a 1.5 hr post game visit meet & greet. Should be fun! Love watching him pace up and down the court, he's intense LOL. You IL'ers may recall him from his Illini coaching days, he was also asst. coach at Purdue for years under Gene Keady.
Hope you all with the sniffles feel better. So far, Im cold free.0 -
Skip, thought of you the other day when I saw this at Kohls...

Hey get better soon Dennis! Yeah my brother got over 8" of snow in Iowa and my sister over a foot in Chicago. I spent Thanksgiving in Minneapolis which was outside the band of Storm Bruce as they call it. Down to 2°F chill factor one morning but just a teensy "powdered sugar" flurry or two blowing off the roads in the wind. Good to be home.
Hey Lee have fun with the dog training!!0 -
Good morning BBB.
After two hours digging under piles of lumber, clearing out cabinets, climbing ladders and poking into dark recesses seeking the missing Christmas light timers, DW tells me that she might have put them somewhere in the house and she'll find them. Sigh.
Projects in the shop, today. I need to turn a new base/trunk for our artificial Christmas tree. The old one is just a bit too tall. I made the old one years before I owned a lathe.
Everyone get through the colds, etc.0 -
Hellooooooooooooo, BBB!
Raine, you sound so busy! Maybe just donate it all and buy new? Just think of what a service you'd be doing for the economy!
I'm glad you're feeling better, Dennis.
I hope they don't squish you too much, Mary. I'm way overdue for mine.
Have fun training, Lee! Is it snowy there?
It's been a fabulous week of meetings ... it was another deep one, which makes me happy. Next week should be powerful, too!
Hugs to you all from my house to yours!

DM (my mom) and DS (my half sis).
GOOD GOD NO, Lee! The Inn is closed to permanent live ins!
We haven't spoke (DM) for several years - so this ought be interesting. DS is on point to play block and tackle....
Mary - LOVE IT! See my threads!
BEAUTIFUL home, Lisa! LOVE a decorated home!
Lou - I'm in your camp!0 -
HA! Love that suit, Skip! You crack me up!
And I hope everything goes well with your DM.0 -
LOL!
This pic was taken the day after my back surgery - thus the hunch! I was in so much pain and hopped up still on pain meds. But my pal was having a Christmas Party and I was NOT going to miss it! I suffered through to make an appearance (sans the Egg Nog)......0 -
Felt well enough to make a road trip to a neighboring town for my November WI. Turns out 14 days of cruising and 10 days of flu counter balance each other. Up +.8#.0

Nicely done Dennis.
Lisa, house looks great.
Had a nice dinner. Heidy picked IHOP. ha. Worked on all kinds of stuff around here and now I’m late to bed.
Lou, you crack me up!!
