    G'Morning!

    Happy Birthday, SGM!

    I hurt in places I didn't know were possible. Full day of packing and the house looks like a bomb went off. Today movers pickup the boxes and furniture and will leave beds and a single couch through the weekend and DF visit.

    New owner sent a dozen gourmet cookies to us yesterday with a note of appreciation for all the work we are doing to close so quickly. YUMMY!

    Killing me we are moving to a Marriott property (vs. Hilton) - alas, got Amex to issue me a Bonvoy card to at least get some points out of this 70 night excursion in hotel. It felt skeezy to use my AMEX Hilton card to pay for Marriott stay Haaa.

    Cheers for another long day!

    I was wondering how long you’d be staying at a hotel? So, in 70 days give or take, I’m guessing about the same time your glasses finally show up, you’ll be in your new house? Does this hotel have a kitchen or is eating out all that time?

    Still under construction and it’s driving me mad.

    Mornin' BBB

    Nice burn, Kelly. LOL.
    70 days in a hotel sounds expensive. I bet those cookies are too.
    Got news yesterday that an old friend and navy veteran took his life this past weekend. His sister says he was battling depression and anxiety. Hadn't seen or talked to him in a few months. He lost his dad a couple of years ago from cancer, and they were very close. Funeral this weekend.

    Doc - sorry to hear. Hand salute for your Navy pal.

    Full suite (w/ kitchen). Glasses just raise my BP. STUPID it's been since October!

    Can't wait to see new flooring! We are doing all LVP (no more carpets).

    Cheers,
    Skipper

    Sorry about you friend Lee.

    Happy birthday Dave.

    We are meeting a group for a hike then a traditional Mexican lunch.

    Your move sound exhausting but will be worth it.

    Good morning.

    Happy birthday, Dave!

    I totally would have used my Hilton card at a Marriott, Skip. Flex where you can.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Happy Birthday Dave.
    • Who was that lady from FL who popped in?
    • Sorry for your friend and his family Lee. Severe depression is hard to understand.
    • That was quite a zinger Kelly. Maybe Skip should follow Lou's advice and visit Costco.
    • Annual Homeowner Association meeting today with the developer. Or as I call it, the Day of Vague Answers.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Thank you all.

    Very sorry about your friend, Lee.

    No special plans for today. I have a committee meeting at church, tonight. I plan to have the family over on Sunday, when I will crank up the smoker for a rack of ribs. Rita is making me oatmeal muffins for breakfast, though (using my mom's old recipe).
