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~

    Sending T&Ps to the Pacific NW (Rita & Sassy) hope you are being a good nurse main, SGM!

    T-minus one day for the work retirement. Friday is a more social event gathering. BOTH will be emotionally taxing.

    Tucker and I found an hour for some pool time yesterday. Hoping for a rinse repeat day.

    Did hear from surgeon to do another esophageal balloon stretch next Wednesday. HOPEFUL this helps! Still shedding weight and not able to eat most formed foods.

    Hope everyone on cruise is enjoying cold drinks and warm sun!

    Cheers,
    Skipper

    Mornin' BBB.

    Prayers for Doc Skippy! I was hoping that the esophageal thing had resolved. Sorry to hear it persists.
    Happy Birthday Raine.
    Safe travels, Lisa. Condolences on the loss of your friend and colleague.
    Sadly, I must work the BBB retreat weekend. I was hoping that I might be able to sneak away and get there Saturday night, but the gal we had working that weekend has her father's memorial that day.
    Hope Kelly and her DH escape Omicron while cruising.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Sassy is comfortable and content. She is squeezed between my hip and the arm of my recliner, as I type, happily snoozing.

    Look forward to hearing about the BBB get-together, however many make it.

    Morning BBB

    It’s our 20th anniversary and like many we don’t have big plans. Board game test night is today so probably that.

    Successful downsized enough to order a new carry on bag. Still have a few decisions to make but it was going to be close enough to order one. It’s the same or at least very similar to the bag Ron used when he traveled with me when I was working. All my clothes, shoes and toiletries fit; it’s now just deciding what luxuries each of us can take. Unfortunately snorkel gear isn’t making the cut. Hopefully someone will visit us in Cozumel in early December and can make it down or we will just buy new there.


    Have a great meet up all. Sad we couldn’t make it.
