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 BBB friends.
    . Going ashore in Funchal, Madeira today and yes, we have the yarn shops mapped out.
    . Nice show last night with an Irish folk group.

    • Viva le' yarn! 🧶
    • Stepped into a s**ts**w with our HOA yesterday after receiving (along with 9 neighbors), notice of violation for our professionally installed Holiday Lights (wreath and roof line are above the gutters - which are prohibited)!!!! This is exactly the insidiousness of HOAs! "Karen's" with too much time on their hands to waste other peoples time! Needless to say, I started a Facebook war with 100's of comments pouring in.....and received a summons by the Board President (presumably for censure)! 🤬.
    • Long day ahead!

    Mornin' BBB

    Rules are rules, and Karens will be Karens. On the other hand, rules were made to be broken. Go get 'em, Skip. I like the lighting and wreath. Classy.
    Irish Folk music. Sounds like a really "good craic".
    4 inches of snow overnight.
    Day off and everyone but me is off to the Nationals in Pickney, Illinois. Sadly, I could not take the whole month of December off to run Lucy in the Nationals and do Colorado for Christmas.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning BBB friends.

    I understand the logic behind most HOA rules. This one I don't understand. Looks pretty tasteful to me.

    After your last sentence I went back and spotted the girls under the bush.

    Good Evening!

    Glad she got her yarn!

    I took a vacation day today and spent it with my dgs! Made him French toast, w/turkey sausage, fresh mixed berries. Then onto the library for 2+ hours of play and stories! And back home for more of both. A great day had by us both!

    We now just finished a deep vacuuming. Carpets in bedrooms and master bedroom hall way, are getting cleaned professionally in the morning. Long over due!

    That footage and the details coming out thus far on the UHC CEO murder in NYC is disturbing, on so many levels, imo.

    Now, for the Packer game! If I make to half time yawnnnn

    Sleep tight BBB .
