    Mornin' BBB.

    Hit the salt yesterday with a friend, but we got blown off the water and came home early and futzed around the garden. Might have gotten a solid nap in too.

    How's the pain report, Skip? Someone suggested a sleeping in a lazyboy or adjustable chair. If you haven't tried that trick it might be helpful. Gabapentin might be helpful too. I think Mr Cooper has some.

    Hope everyone had a nice weekend.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Morning~

    Sorry fishing' was a bust, Lee! I have an adjustable bed - just can't get a comfortable position. Trying to muster through two more days. See Neurologist Wednesday for follow up. I am going to request Gabapentin....

    Lazy weekend mostly. Managed to watch some Nascar a bit yesterday....

    1/2 day on the computer today. Easing back into work.

    Pool plaster and fill on Wednesday - we'll see!

    Cheers,
    Skip

    Morning BBB

    Waking up early for day one of vacation week. Pulled into lake around noon Sunday as both neighbors were pulling out. How perfect, we have the bay to ourselves.

    Lot one around the corner a few down as my interest, yielded a wonderful talk at the beach boat parking area for the off lot owners. Todd, who was there, assured me theyd make parking for our boat a reality. It's pretty parked up right now full. Nice neighbors do exist!
    This lot is best option on same block as our friends. Problem might be the lot we are interested in is being rented out, with no lease agreement, to other RV campers. But owner wants to sell. I called them. Asking price is attractive to us.

    Today we will take boat out, 90F this afternoon! This morning we will road trip to a cheese factory that also has a great outlet store, 30min away.

    Septic inspection is today here, only contingency on offer. Then close June 22.

    Steph, what are the dishes your selling?

    Skip, what's doc say about leg?

    Raine, I miss my Tom too already!

    Kelly, you go to see ds1?

    Dave, happy birthday to Jr! Glad your getting back to seeing the family.

    Sam, dmil is so blessed to have you guys! Enjoy your beach rental vacation!

    Lee, any day fishing is a good one. My nightcrawlers keep getting stolen off my hook yesterday. I need fishing lessons! Or a sharper hook! Lol

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Gabapentin must be the wonder drug. Lee suggested it for Emma when she was in pain.
      I think she had to borrow it from her Mom. I wonder if Trump knows about it?
    • Today is bill paying day. I'm so excited. Fortunately it is a whole lot easier with on-line banking.
    • It is supposed to rain today so that makes the admin chores a little easier.
    • Mary, it looks like Cristobal might be bringing some rain your way. I hope you have a good book.
    • Harvick looked strong yesterday Skip. Strange to see the Atlanta Motor Speedway without fans.

    Good morning.

    Try the Lazy Boy, Skip. It sets up in a way that an adjustable bed just can't. And the cushioning is like packing peanuts for your spine.

    Morning BBB

    Yesterday the wind blew over 30 mph all day. After yardwork I didn't house chores while Ron and dads moved stuff to the burn pile at grandmas old house. No walk as it was just too windy.

    Mary there are tons of dishes. One set of China that is pink and silver. It was my grandma's I think so from the early 50's(the one I call grandma is actually step grandma). Other set that was a great grandma's went to a cousin.

    Lots of the bowls are tourquois, orange or pink. I am happy to send you pictures. I think we will be passing through your area in August when we go from Minneapolis to central Michigan.

    Good morning BBB crew.

    Having a kind of damp June. Today should be dry, so I'll mow the jungle, er, lawn. Trying to find a place to unload to old, worn out mower, so I can buy a new one.

    Enjoy your day.

    Good afternoon

    So, I take gabapentin for my hot flashes and night sweats. 1800 mg a day I believe. It works!!

    No, we did not go to Milwaukee. I ended up having a little procedure Friday afternoon which kept me home for most of the weekend. Looks like we’re shooting for the 19th. Who knows. I feel bad for Roarke. He’s waiting and we aren’t coming. Oh well. I said to have him fly one way then rent a truck and send him one way back. We will see.

    Family with 6 kids came last night to swim. 7-10. Fought the entire time dh said no
    More. Didn’t know what’s worse the kids fighting or the parents yelling at them. It was really awful.

    Come on Wednesday. That’s girls night.

    It passed, green light go .
