Pour yourself a mug of your favorite morning brew. Pull up a chair and join us for our morning roll call here on the BBB.

Morning~
I'm not sure I'm ready for another blistering week! Oi.
Today the excavation begins on pool. That should offer some distraction for a few months
Still feeling a bit punchy - but slowly getting back to normal.
Cheers for a good day!

Morning BBB
I feel like Rita this morning, only hardly a full day in the garden I spent. Tells me I need more exercise, as a couple hours of hedge trimming and bed clean out I did has me stiff. I also gathered seeds from the zinnia heads I had drying all winter.
Early start to my work day, gives to an early end to my work day. So I'll get to it.
Lets stay put this week and stay healthy. I shouldn't need to leave the house for anything.
Hope the pool is in quick for ya Skip, you can relax with a beer in your floatie chair.
Have a great start to Easter week BBB.
Be well, be safe, and I know your always kind... good people we have here.

Oh and do not open a bag of the Easter
peanut M & Ms thinking you'll have some til next Sunday. No, dont. 🙈0 -
Mornin' BBB.
Peanut M&Ms. Achilles heel right there.
Glad you are feeling better, Skip.
Rehab is having dad sit in a wheelchair during the day so he can be mobile without the of him crawling in and out of bed. They may have belled him too. He just can't sit still.
Good day dog training with a couple from from dog trialing group yesterday in NY. Drove an hour to get there, same as to BTG's place. Just three of us and a mess of dogs. No hugging or hand shaking and out in fresh air. Then straight home.
Off to work.

Good morning BBB Friends.
- Let's hope this week on the virus front isn't as nasty as predicted.
- Glad to hear you are feeling better Skip. Happy hole digging.
- Enjoyed the country music on TV last night from the artist's homes.
- Yeh Mary, it doesn't take much honest work anymore to make me sore too.
- It is Easter Week!

Good morning.
Speaking of beautiful days in the neighborhood, I watched the movie Friday night on Googke's Roku Channel. Saw Midway on Saturday.
Got my steps in yesterday the hard way. Waking around a puzzle. This is my life now...0 -

Good Morning,
Niece posted comment yesterday that after this she would eligible for "My 600 lb Life" and I believe she was right when she posted Shelter in place means Shovel in Face. I'm as bad as she is just do not have a lot of temptations in house. I've gone from staying very busy to just piddling around; I had been looking at starting another wood project but with my procrastination did not order before this shelter in place started and I'm not driving into Atlanta now.
A bag of peanut M&M's will last about four or five days here only because they are kept in cabinet where it takes a concerted effort to get up and go get. Never put in dish on table or could be gone in a day.
Did enjoy Country music last night also
Getting out with girls going through fields adds some normal to life
Skip, believe you and DW will totally enjoy pool we put two in just make sure you go with all maintenance items they can add so it does not require daily work with chemicals and cleaning.
Have to make run through drive through bank and pharmacy window as well as drop trash at dump station1 -
Raine, I hear they had a heck of a car fire in your neck of the woods...

Good morning BBB crew.
That's quite a fire.
Another day at home. At least it should be very nice weather: frosty now, but 61 this afternoon. Brilliant sunshine. I predict Rita will be out in the yard until sundown.0 -
Morning BBB
Going to be nice tosay, finally. Dad is chomping at the bit to mow so even though we don't think it needs done yet we will do it for him since he is still working. I sure wish he would just tell them he wants to retire now but he likes driving the tractor for planting season.
Will get in a hike too and hopefully finish up flower beds. Bought lettuce seeds yesterday so will get some of those planted too. Eventually will transplant to Grandma's patch so if/when we leave dad can just let them go and the next homeowners can deal with the cleanup. He planted daylilys in his garden area after Mom died and I don't want to make more work for him.0 -
Look at all of you working in your gardens.
That is a fire!!!
Sam, you’re 100% right in the pool.
Finally the sun is shining. I have a beer in my hand and finally sitting on my butt.
Dumba$$ kids didn’t put up the remote. Ruby chewed them up ....,again.0 -
OMG - how many remotes is that now?
What fire is this, Dennis/Raine?
~skipper0 -
Sam - great comment - "shoveling in place."
Dennis - we could see the smoke from here and its 40 minute drive away!
Steph - nice that you helped your dad.
Lee - sounds like a great dog training day
Bill - exciting the they are starting the pool. A fire at the airport in Ft Myers - a tom of cars burned.0 -
Keep in mind very few people are traveling. A lot with ~3500 rental cars burnt at Ft. Myers airport.0

Skip, you're putting in a pool? Sheesh! First Raine, then you ... I want a pool! (but there's really not much point in Michigan ..)
Mary, I love reading your posts! You are such a beacon of hope! And the cool thing about Peanut M&Ms is that they're easy to track ... they're about 1 SP each.
Life lessons from Lee's dad: to be so active and unpredictable in your later years that the hospital staff have to "bell" you. #lifegoals
I agree, Dennis! The live, homegrown entertainment has been awesome lately! So many of the Christian music stars have even been writing songs FOR this time in our lives. Actually, I did, too. I'll put it on fb on Wednesday for #WorshipWednesdays. Mine won't be as good as JJ Heller's, Michael W. Smith's, or Jeremy Camp's but it's mine.
Lou, my table looks just like that with the puzzle on it. Great minds and all. Do you have any workshops yet in Texas? I'd love to visit you if you do.
Sam: Shelter in place vs. Shovel in face - HA HA HA HA HA!!! Priceless!!!
Enjoy your BREAK, Kelly! You are one hard worker and you deserve it!
So I've been busy with WW Virtual Workshops and AA virtual meetings and painting and writing and doing projects and puzzles and hanging out with my family. I am constantly reminded of how blessed I am to be quarantined with Jim and Jamie ... they are awesome and we're having a really great time together.0 -
Good for you Lisa. I want to
Kick my two grown *kitten* men out of the house. I lost it tonight.
We’re probably out at least 8-10 remotes now. Gee whiz.
Everyone is getting along. Well, good for all you!! Not here. I think we’re a meme. Ha ha ha.
Holy smokes on the fire at the airport! Hope no one got hurt.
I’ll start a project Tomorrow and I have one in mind. Heee. Heee0
