    • Is today is disembark day....hoping you are both having an incredible journey (relaxing/rejuvenating), Dennis & Kris!
    • The monthly HOA meeting is this afternoon. DW is coming and loaded for bear; they kicked the wrong dog for this fight. Her gander makes mine seem childish and innocent. It should be interesting.
    • VA Doc visit yesterday. He thinks the headaches may be related to sleep apnea. We'll see. Meeting an ENT in January (nothing fast in the VA).
    • Anxious for time off. Today is my Friday. Next week SHOULD be light - then off for two weeks before the silliness that is transition pomp and circumstance begins.
    • Scale and I are not having a good week - I am not posting higher #'s but it's not giving me lower #'s either! Friday WI, trekking for a stalemate, me thinks.
    Cheers,
    Skip

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Light rain with a bit of snow mixed in. Not my favorite weather. Maybe some shop time, today. I feel the need to create something.

    Lee, had dinner again with the guy who lives near Monument. Turns out his wife is a C-17 pilot and a professor at the AF Academy.

    Good morning.

    Dennis, have you considered a Shih Tzu? I have a box I can cut some holes in...

    Christmas party today and Exec Christmas dinner tonight; so, of course I was up at 4 today for no reason

    Morning gang

    Took Ron to the doctor yesterday. He thinks it's just a pinched nerve and prescribed motrin. But if not significantly better in 3 days will do an ultrasound to rule out a blood clot. Neither think it is gout because Ron knows what that feels like, his gout med did nothing to relieve and not red and hot. Today we went for blood work as he is going back next week for a general checkup.

    His foot is noticeably less swelled this morning so hopefully on the mend.

    I haven't decided if I'm going to the gym without him. I don't really like driving there so will likely just do yoga at home. But then no WI.

    A brewery in town has 3x2 today so maybe there later.

    Hi BBB

    Single digit temps here. Then back to 30's for weekend...

    Have a fun day and evening Lou!

    Dinner on Tuesday night with my brothers was good, nice to see them!! Last night out with our old neighbors whom we haven't see in 2 years. Was great to catch up! Then Friday is dh's work dinner party. I order the salmon, first time ever ordering that. Saturday is my bffs birthday dinner at a steakhouse on a lake.... and then we hope to find some live music!

    Brrrrr I'm not ready for it to be this cold here!

    Hope everyone feels better that needs to!

    One best thing I did for myself in 2024 was to be treated for sleep apnea! I sleep a straight 7, sometimes 8 hours now! And I'm losing weight and have more energy!!!

    Be well BBB!

    Bermuda is beautiful.

    Waiting for a battle report from the HOA meeting.

    Skip, as 'my' representative in the DHS is it true the government doesn't know where all those drones over NJ come from?

    Dennis, that is pretty cool. Small world. Lots of flyboys and girls with Ft Carson Army Airbase, the AF academy, and the SpaceForce base. One of my hunt club friends has a nephew at Ft Carson who is the meteorologist for the Airbase.
