    • Went to bed early; up way to early. Sleep is just tough lately. Ugh. Headache all day yesterday. Not so much this morning. A neurologist is the one that found the heart plaque and sent me to cardiologist. Not sure what else to explore.
    • SGM - so glad I don't have to manage all that with estate. DMIL/DFIL lived with us and DW was great about getting everything in order. DBIL's simply had to show up to receive their final check.
    • Lou - any update on your DB? My 1/2 brothers' 50th is approaching. Trying to come up with something nice for a gift idea.
    • C'mon Weekend! I'm hoping my truck is back before then! Patience expiring. But I can't get upset - he's sending me pics and its looking great! Just wrapped roof bars in red last night (it pops)!!!! Door puddle lights installed too - to illuminate ground when you open doors.

    Mornin' BBB

    Sorry you are still having the headaches. I would go back to the Neurologist, Skip. He found a problem that a cardiologist had to fix. Now that problem has been ruled out as a possible cause of the headaches, now he can go back to work on the list of differentials.
    I really likes the new whip.
    Picking up M tomorrow. Gotta get the house back into shape for her inspection.
    Bone on bone has gotta be ouch-y.
    Mary you sound like you got a very busy agenda.
    Steph, have you every thought of taking it to the next level, just having the clothes on your back, a passport, and a toothbrush?

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning

    Up and out the door early all week actually for the next 12 days. Dog sitting.


    Feel better skip and I agree. None on bone has to hurt.

    Snow is coming tomorrow I’m hearing.

    Make it a great day.

    Good Morning,
    Day starting out wet, which more than likely suits Pablo; will not put right rear leg down since his shots yesterday.
    Orthopedic this morning.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    We're doing our Thanksgiving dinner on Saturday, and it will just be six of us. That will be quite enough. I do the holiday cooking, generally. This one will be a two-day process. Friday, I'll make my corn pudding and use the neck, giblets and wing tips to make turkey broth for the gravy and to flavor the stuffing. Saturday afternoon will me the turkey, stuffing and mashed potatoes. I bought rolls, so I won't be baking. We have a couple frozen pumpkin pies we were given by one of our casinos. We'll see if they are any good. Put enough whipped cream on it and any pie is OK, I say.

    Great looking ride, Skip. Hope you get it home soon.

    Good morning.

    My brother had the bone marrow biopsy yesterday, so he'll get results in a week or so. Until then, just being treated as if it were a one-off seizure until he runs the gauntlet of doctors appointments, Skip.

    Our Thanksgiving will be the 2nd Annual Brazilian Feedbag Extravaganza with the neighbors.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Bloodwork 1st thing this morning.
    • It's a rainy day here which suits me fine. I have homework to do for my class tonight.
    • Driving into Atlanta tomorrow to have brunch with my DN. She is town for a conference that wraps up tonight.
    • Next Wednesday we will be going into Atlanta to catch a flight to London.
    • He may be a Critter Fixer, but I think Doc Lee is right about the Neurologist Skip.

    Morning gang

    Headaches was one of Ron's major symptom other than dizziness last year. The headaches lasted months. Never found a cause. Hope your docs are more persistent.

    Today is Spanish class ( We are going 4 days a week now..two different teachers) then not sure. Probably a small hike. It's perfect hiking weather here now. Sunny and 75 with a breeze most days. Must be cool now though..Ron had the heat on in the living room when I got up.

    We are going to a friend's for Thanksgiving. I'm making roasted sweet potatoes, if I can find them, and I ordered a pie yesterday from a lady we met at happy hour. She supplements her SS with baking. I was going to make a dessert but decided buying all the ingredients just didn't make sense and I don't mind supporting someone who needs it. Probably will grab a bottle of wine or two also. I think 22 are on the guest list.

    Hello BBB

    I should start making a grocery list huh. 8 and 3 littles on Wed night. I'm making grilled lil slider cheese burgers with a topping spread, and the rest of them are bring and setting a charcuterie. 12 and 2 littles and Maddie dog for a traditional Thanksgiving on Thursday.

    Lou what's on this Brazilian menu?

    Dennis, what ports are you stopping in. Sounds like a great timed trip.

    We have snow flurries right now, by morning some more. Then high to 45F so it won't stick around.

    Dh has a last round of yard work and winterizing to do over here. He says his last overnight by dsis is Thur night. She's getting along ok.

    I got the the call my wedding rings are done! We finally designed the band for my opal diamond engagement ring. We'll pick up Saturday morning. Which reminds me I got an anniversary coming up!

    Little dgs is getting his first hair cut tonight ! I'll see him for a bit in later afternoon if weather permits.

    Suppose to dine out tomorrow night with my bff of 50yrs, for my 60th. She's more a best friend, sister, we're family...

    Sleep tight!
