    • Back at the grind this morning (or at least an attempt to). About 600+ emails to sort through.
    • Didn't sleep well - though staples out makes laying on back much less painful.
    • Rain rain go away!

    Cheers,
    Skipper

    Mornin' BBB

    Same with the rain. At least it is actually April now, April showers and all that.

    Good morning.

    When I first saw that picture I thought it was an antique baseball, Skip. I think you've inspired me to request a Lazyboy as a chair for my office to mitigate my back pain.

    Estate sale is Friday through Sunday. Hoping to get the handyman in to rip carpets and fix up the bathroom next week. If he can get that done, then I can shave time off how long I'll be in Louisville since I originally thought that work would be done when I got there.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    The Pacific Northwest guy chuckles at the rain whiners from the East Coast.

    We have some showers around, today, but I am packing my rain gear and heading out for a hike in the Olympic Mountains. Today's goal is a pretty lake on the east side of the range. It's low enough to be below the snow line but offers a nice climb through the forest. I might take a side trail up higher, too, to stretch my legs. Looking forward to getting out again.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • So Dave, when it comes to rain it's not all apples to apples. We had 4" of rain overnight. The good news is we'll have a short reprieve from the pollen.
    • Sam, if your new sod didn't float away it should be well watered.
    • Skip, you need to keep looking at that picture of your back. Hopefully it will motivate you to follow the Drs. orders.
    • Mary, do you have a connection to the Mothership in FL yet?
    • Have a good day BBB.

    Good Morning,
    We got an inch and 3/8 of rain early morning. It was 70 at 12 this morning, now 61 should warm back to 64 before dropping again. High of 58 tomorrow and 60 Friday; sunny till Monday.
    Took Pablo around block this morning only 3/4 mile he finally calmed down; we were walking between 3 and 4 miles a day. Will take him out again if he wants.
    Need to go to Lowe's for sand and soil to replant some pots and sand on sod to help level.
    Lou, as you already know it is hard getting anything done when . are not there. Prayers will be with you this weekend.
    Skip move slowly, glad you are getting a little better rest without staples.
    Someone has a wedding getting close, sounds as you are prepared.
    Keeping grands are fun in small doses. spoil them and give them back.

    Morning gang

    It's a beautiful day in Mexico. Sun is shining and the wind is light. Our favorite hangout is closed on Wednesdays so might try somewhere new.

    We are out ofaau8xil9qyq4.jpg
    most fresh veggies so off to the store today. And I found a tortilleria that sells flour tortillas instead of corn so might stop there too. We've been having taco salad topped with homemade chips for supper most nights since I'm out of seeds for our normal salad.
