    Good morning.

    Not sure why I'm starting the thread, but perhaps Skip has discovered the ability to sleep past 5AM?

    Noble thought.

    Skip is up to eyebrows on an OUTPROCESSING Checklist. Apparently, the government got less efficient in coordination! 28 signatures! Yep. 28!

    Is it Miller time yet?

    Good morning BBB friends.

    It's so long since I retired from Civil Service that I can remember nothing of the process. But I don't think 28 signatures were required. I do remember a hold up on my Army retirement in 2000. They wanted me to turn in a pile cap I was issued in 1976. I had to make a trip to a surplus store to buy one. Hadn't seen the *kitten* thing in 20 years.

    We are repairing a broken pipe in the sprinkler system today. I think Rita probably hit it when she was planting shrubs a month ago. Anyway, lots of digging and mud on the agenda. Should actually be kind of fun.

    Good morning BBB Friends.

    • I started my day with the ROMEOs which is always good.
    • I remember I was out-processing from the Air Force when I got a message to report to supply for a new field jacket. I didn't argue with them. I still wear that jacket.
    • DW is on a 3-day bus tour of SW GA with folks from the 'hood. I have dog duty.
    • Lee, you would have been proud of Hannah. On our first trip out this morning she spots a bird and goes into a 3-point stance and then ran after it. According to her she would have caught the darn thing if she hadn't run out of leash.
    • Now what trouble can I get into without adult supervision?
