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.

    Hope all are planning to enjoy a nice V-Day! We celebrated over the past weekend. Today is work. Work. School. Stager final preps before photo/video day tomorrow. Packers took out another load to storage yesterday. All spare rooms and basement/bar/wine room and dining room/great room DONE! Just need to stage kitchen and bathrooms and we should be good to go. Ugh.

    Cremation is what me Dad and I opted for too. With no kids I requested that no plot or headstone be required either - simply scatter me ashes over a cliff or a nice boat ride and into the ocean. Simple.

    Black Beauty is fast and fun though Tucker is wondering WTH?

    Cheers for a great V-Day!

    Mornin' BBB.

    Dust to dust. Ashes to ashes.

    Roses are red.
    Violets are blue.
    Tuckers nose is wet.
    Vroom, vroom, vroom!

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning.

    Living in a staged house would drive me nuts, Skip. Prayers that you don't shift a chair two inches and ruin the esthetic.

    Conventional Wisdom was wrong. The funeral is tomorrow, so I'm on my way to Louisville this afternoon.

    Morning BBB

    We are mostly packed up. Our shuttle to the airport arrives at nine. Will be in San Miguel de Allende by dinner if all goes well. We are flying on Vivo aerobus which is a Mexican airline. I know my backpack is under the allotted 10 kg but I don’t know if they weigh my crossbody purse too. Both tablets are in it so not light. Might have to fill my pockets. 🤷‍♀️. We flew them from Cuba and they didn’t care.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Tucker will eventually get used to the idea that he is family, but the vehicles come and go on a regular basis.
    • I am anxious to hear your opinion of San Miguel de Allende Steph. I think you will like it. I know I do.
    • Safe travels Lou.
    • I am off to meet with my Emmaus Reunion group.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    I'm grilling steaks for our supper, and Rita is making blueberry waffles for breakfast. We express our love with food, I guess.

    Good Morning,
    Prayers with you as you travel Lou,
    Safe travels Steph and Ron,
    We too express our love with food which is why we are overweight, maybe we should not love so much.
    In some states it is illegal to spread ashes without permit and permission,
    I have two yoga classes this afternoon so guess we will go out another day.
    Beautiful day here, highs in upper 60's warmer tomorrow and Thursday with rain coming in Thursday evening, then turning colder with highs in 50's.

    HaPpy Valentine's Day !

    We exchanged our first husband and wife valentines cards lol. He brought home roses for me, I gave him some chocolate. I've saved every card he's ever given me. Then I find out tonight so has he! Thats a lot of cards!

    Save travels Lou. I'm sure your family is thankful you will be there.

    Cremation is what we both want. The Greenspace for coffin burials is getting scarse. And its much cheaper too.

    Sleep tight BBB
