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.

    Mornin' BBB

    Any word on your DBIL, Kelly? Prayers continue.

    Coffee is important. Yes, indeed.

    Dinner last night was Guiness, wings, and pizza. NOT point friendly.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning.

    Two BBB closings two days apart? Wow!

    One more sleep and I'm on vacation!

    Last night's dinner was Cecilia's leftover tuna sandwich from Saturday. We are not the same, folks. 😂

    Leo heads off to the sitter around lunchtime today.

    Sam - I'm one of those people that pays for storage. This was never supposed to be where we were staying. The market just took off and we still had the place in Deerfield, so I didn't have buying power to get something else. Of course we could do more purging, but that involves Cecilia realizing we don't need a second kitchen worth of stuff, and I don't want to be smothered with a pillow when I sleep.

    Are you doing the ceramic coating on this one, Skip?

    We thought Tucker's daycare gal pal, Lulu, might help with Tucker's unfriendly attitude with the jolly ole' fat guy. Alas, it was not meant to be.

    Good afternoon BBB friends.

    • Just got back from our tour of Puerto Plata. Rather depressing.
    • I appreciate your rationale for the off road accessories Skip and of course it will be ceramic coated Lou, for the same reason.
    • I had an Ecuadorian girl friend once, well, for 10 hours during an international flight.
    • Enjoy your time off Mary.
