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.

Good morning.
We spent an hour last night trying to find comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) in the sky. It's supposed to be in the neighborhood of Mars, but we just couldn't get a lock on it with her telescope. We were hampered by the fact that her laser scope was dead, so she'll be getting new batteries today and we'll try again if the weather cooperates.
My cousin is in palliative care now and my dad says he has a day or two at best remaining. Please send up a prayer or two for a painless and peaceful transition if you're so ínclined.0 -
Sorry about your cousin Lou.
Nothing big going on here. Might be a pool day before.
Still working on switching to bitwarden. I’m checking each site, changing password and deleting any credit card info on file. About half done I would say. Lots are easy as they are tied to work emails or company cards. Slow process.0 -
G'Morning~
Awaiting "Woofies Mobile Grooming" to come take care of the Mother Tucker (he needs a bath badly)!
Sending T&Ps for cousin, Lou!
C"mon weekend.
Stager here again today! I'll be glad when this is done. I don't get the logic, but so it goes.

Good morning BBB friends.
Prayers sent, Lou.
Sassy likes baths. The real issue is drying her off, afterwards. She runs in terror from a blow dryer, and thinks a towel is something she should wrestle and play with.
We found out this week that tax assistance offices were closed, Army-wide, this year. I haven't done our taxes myself for 15 years. Yesterday, I managed to get it done and filed. We paid twice as much as last year. But that was because we brought home more, too, so it's all good. I'll sign us up for voluntary withholding from our Social Security, so we won't get hit by a big bill next year. Here's a laugh: the SS Admin will only take the application (W-4V) by mail or Fax. There is no way to submit electronically. When will they enter the 21st Century?0 -
Good morning BBB Friends.
- Sorry to hear about your cousin Lou. Prayers said for a peaceful transition to his new address.
- I need to follow Steph's lead and do some maintenance on my Bitwarden account. It's working great but I guess I ought to clean it up every once and awhile.
- I live with my tax preparer. I better prod her it is time to get going.
- Busy afternoon with church and community activities. I guess I better get going.

Praying for your cousin and his family Lou.
I’m waiting on a few final
Pieces of tax stuff before I can send off.
After scrimping and saving for about 2 years all new flooring has been ordered today. No carpet will be in the house other than the basement and 2 of the upstair bedrooms. Whew. Oh. Made a payment to reserve the venue for a wedding. Isn’t the bride to take care of this crap? #broke
I know nothing else other than the fact that my math skills stink. I was off about $600 on MY estimate for the flooring. Ha ha ha.
super bowl plans?
