    Daytona party was a hit!

    We had enough nectar, wings, ribs, and pizza to feed two armies. Had fun despite the incessant crashes and red flags!

    How was your Daytona even in FLA, Raine/Tom?

    Today is schoolwork (enjoying federal holiday off).

    Storm rolling in tomorrow and Wednesday....

    BTW - I have an ad for the squatty potty on the MyFitnessPal page!

    Lou? I blame you for this!

    Mornin' BBB.

    LOL, Skip. I too blame Lou.

    Had to move snow this morning. Only 2 inches, but enough to need clearing.

    Bob is OK. Not great. He can't go outside at all, his driveway is like a glacier. Very rough ice with some slick spots. I think I'll go over there this evening with some ice melt.

    Pea soup came out pretty darn good. First time in crock pot. Key is less fluid when in a slow cooker. All the fluid is trapped inside and can't evaporate off. Take any recipe and just cut fluid in half.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning

    That was a long race but at least SO got to see the last quarter when we got back. And the girls took 1st place in the basketball tourney.

    Ice melt shortage in these parts. Folks have reverted to solar salt. Sorry your friend can't get out Lee. How were the dogs?

    I'm going to start my taxes today, do some laundry and some reading on this fed holiday pto day.

    Sun is out, got another 4 inches snow yesterday here. We making up for the dry Dec., Jan. for sure!

    Have a great day!

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Watched about 30 seconds of Daytona: enough to realize I don't recognize the names of most drivers, these days. I used to enjoy havng NASCAR on TV, but just drifted away from it. I watched golf, yesterday. A Daytona party soundsa like fun - minus the alcohol, for me.

    We get our taxes done for free on post. Need to put our files together and do that, soon. Pretty simple, for us, since we just have pension and interest income, and don't itemize deductions.

    I remember lamenting the start of Presidents Day. When I was young, we got a day off from school on both Lincoln's and Washington's birthdays and the new holiday cut that to one day. We thought that was a rotten deal.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Breakfast with the ROMEOs this morning. A little tricky eating breakfast out while tracking on the WW app.
    • That was a major wreck at Daytona and than after that it was like watching bumper cars at the fair. Less than half of the cars finished the race. I still think it would have been more fun at Skip's house.
    • Chloe went home last night so we are back to one dog.
    • Could you imagine if we celebrated Obama's or Trump's birthday? Presidents Day is probably a good idea.

    Morning BBB

    Dad and nephew are with Ron at the house getting the last of the stuff we are sending to sister. A bed and a dresser plus a box to store at Dad's of assorted tools and things I think we need for the van build.

    I'm headed to northern Illinois today then Ohio by Thursday. Hopefully missing the storms.
