Good morning BBB friends. (((Mary)))

Good morning gentlemen. Went to the pharmacy for a second time, yesterday. The line was short, but it turned put the doctor put in the wrong prescriptions. Grinding of teeth. I left another phone message, and we start the whole process over again. Have yet another heat advisory today. I'll wash the car first thing, then…

Good morning BBB friends. Only a short wait at the pharmacy, because I already checked in online. I had received a text reply saying my prescriptions were ready. When I got to the window, I found that half our 'spripts weren't ready. I have to go back again tomorrow. Life throws you these little tests for self-control.…

Good morning gentlemen. I was checking in early this morning, when our internet service went out. I have no idea why. Yesterday we lost power for several hours, too. No storms nearby, so that is a mystery, too. It's the sort if question that local news would answer, but the investment bankers have pretty much destroyed…

Sam, the long waits at the Army pharmacy stem from a plan implemented during the last administration to increase efficiency (read - cut costs), by eliminating 15 percent of the staffing in military medicine. At the same time, someone sold DoD a new software package to maintain all medical records. The old software package…

Good morning BBB friends. I have a day ahead full of waiting in lines at the Army pharmacy and banking. Oh joy.

Good morning gentlemen. It's prescription time, again. I need to pick up meds at the Army hospital pharmacy. It's amazing how much I will go through to avoid paying the co-pay to get our prescriptions at a civilian pharmacy. DDIL invited us over to their house for supper and an evening playing a board game, last night. Had…

Good morning BBB friends. Pleasantly warm day, today. After church, I'll spend a little time in the shop, and some time sitting in the shade and reading a book. Lazy day,

Good morning gentlemen. No action thrillers made about soldiers ... Oh, wait. Church this morning, then nothing planned for the day. It will be pleasantly warm (81).

Good morning BBB friends. LOL, Lee. 1,855 is too many days to be counting down, I think. In my barracks days troops would put up "short-timer's" calendars when they got under six months left on their enlistments. At three months they would become a "two-digit midget." Should be a pleasant day here, today, with a high in…

Good morning gentlemen. I've often wondered about the strange concentration of accounting backgrounds in our little group. There is a work party at church today. Not sure what the target is, so I will bring a wide variety of tools. Fortunately, the weather is cooling a bit, today: high in the mid-70s. We'll be back in the…

Good morning BBB friends. We ran out of half-and-half, so I had to put milk in my coffee. It does not bode well for my Friday. Great loss Kelly. Keep it up.

Good morning gentlemen. Accounting would have been dangerous for me - it would have driven me crazy. I am not a detail and number guy. I used to hate the time I had to spend on budget committees. It's only going to be 80, today, but that's still too hot for Sassy. I'll take her for a walk early, while it's still cool.…

Good morning BBB friends. If I was left as a bachelor I'd take hikes, go fishing, play in my shop and spend my evenings watching TV ... But that's what I do anyway. Got the yard work done yesterday, before it got too hot. A new tool (a power carver) came in the mail, so today I will spend time playing with that.

Good morning gentlemen. Hope you find a doctor with more helpful ideas, Bill. We're still under a heat advisory, here, with a forecast high of 95. Humidity isn't bad, though. The biggest problem is that our very wet May and June grew a lot of grass and brush, which is now dry and raising the fire danger - a lot. No major…

Good morning BBB friends. No one shines anything in the military these days. They wear rough-out tan boots, and the low quarters are made out of shiny plastic. The world is going to heck. Had a satisfyingly hard hike, yesterday: covered 15.6 miles, with 3,311 feet of climbing. A bit sore today, but the lawn needs mowing…

Good morning gentlemen. I'm a bit sore, this morning. Yesterday's hike was harder than I remembered. I ended up covering 15.6 miles, with 3,311 feet of climbing. Still, getting a physical challenge was a major reason for hiking, so tired and sore was an acceptable outcome. No big views on that trail, so it isn't a popular…

Good morning BBB friends. Getting loaded up for a hike in the Cascades. I haven't done much hiking this year, so I am really looking forward to this one.

Good morning gentlemen. In Sassy's year with us I don't think I have ever heard any thunder, so I don't know how she would react. She hasn't been bothered by fireworks or distant artillery fire. I am finally getting out for a hike today. Heading for the east side of Mt. Rainier N.P. for a hike up a forested trail that gets…

Good morning BBB friends. Another beautiful day forecast, here: 81 and sunny. The leaves are starting to turn on one of our maple trees, though. How can that be?!! Had great fun at DGD's birthday celebration. Spending time with our favorite people in the world is always satisfying.

Good morning gentlemen. The birthday party was a lot of fun. I was intrigued by the demonstration of carving and texturing, at last week's club meeting, so I ordered a bunch of stuff online. Now I wait for delivery, Like Christmas in August.

Good morning BBB friends. Used to love early morning drives through the Texas hill country. Something about the light filtering through the live oaks just appealed to me. Today is DGD's 9th birthday. The grandparents will gather to celebrate with her this evening.

Good morning gentlemen. Sounds like fun, Lee. No tomatoes at all, here. We have two green cherry tomatoes on one plant. Our horrible weather in May and June did us in, I think. Our bumper crop, this year, will be in grapes. Our 5-year-old grape vine is covered with large bunches. They should be ripe in September. Today is…

Good morning BBB friends. Oh Mary, I am so sorry. You are in my prayers.

Good morning gentlemen. I'm very sorry about your friend, Lee. Hope you figure out what happened, Bill. I was showing off for our then 4-year-old son in a motel pool in Baker City, Oregon and swam under water right into the side of the pool. I had a big lump and a bright red raspberry scrape right in the middle of my…

Good morning BBB friends.

Good morning gentlemen. First time I've heard of that following cataract surgery, Sam. Get better soon. Caught my limit if very nice rainbows yesterday morning. The fish are in the freezer, now. Next time, Rita says, she wants me to smoke my catch. Realized yesterday, that I missed a committee meeting from church on…

Good afternoon BBB friends. Just got home from a morning fishing expedition. Caught my limit of rainbows and got home in time for lunch. Hope the eye improves quickly, Sam. DW wants to do some more shopping for DGD's birthday (she will be 9 on Sunday). That's my afternoon, I guess.

Good morning gentlemen. Hope all went well with Sam's second cataract surgery. Got up early. Think I'll go fishing.

Good morning BBB friends. "Pop smoke." Skip, you have picked up some Soldier talk at those VFW meetings. Sassy has several Kongs but has little interest in them after she has removed whatever food we stuff in them. She does love getting a portion of her food that way. Her very favorite chew toys are a pair of sticks that…
