I'm definitely on for lunch anywhere, any day. As much as I'd like to visit Bert (if he'd have me) I can't block out that many hours any day this week. My loss. From listening to ymmot talk about his trips to Smiths Grove it must be fabulous!
I believe my favorite martian is hereand 55 has posted about his love for Linnig's. So I presume he's in the area. I'm fine with 82's lunch proposal, a trip to Berts. Whatever, I'm easy. Ky is home for me and I could be just as happy taking in a spin about the state & Ohio River enjoying the green, using the D-leaguers as points of interest along the way on my own. No way this needs to be a single event. I could easily do both or more with a big grin.
You are invited. I doubt that it is fabulous, but it is friendly.
I am 73 and nearly crippled. I am bone on bone in both ankles. That renders me incapable of walking very long and absolutely rules out running.
Breaking my femur two years ago left my left leg two inches shorter than the right. The cumulative effects of a bunch of injuries’ and lack of cartilage equals a crippled old man.
On to my post earlier this morning:
It is now 88.3°F and I have mowed the yard. I did nothing else, just mow. That will buy me time to a cooler day to weed whack.
It IS fabulous! Fabulously friendly too! Any place you can relax your inhibitions and be yourself, any place you can truly eat, drink, and be merry is a fabulous place. Bert and Sherry provide all those things and more.
.Saving lives and winning trophies.
It's who we are. It's what we do.
Apparently I qualify. Theoretically I'll get $125. If I do I'll send you a $50 dollar gi, uh, a nice thank you note.
You are on to something Chief. I have always been active and athletic. I played sports growing up and when I went into the U.S. Army they approached me to go to Drill Instructor Academy to become a Drill Sgt. Like Warrior Cat. Once I got out of the army I continued playing sports and joined a fast pitch softball team and played competitive racquetball 4 times a week. This got me in as good of shape as being a DI. I kept that up into my 60's but came down with spinal stenosis and ended up having four back operations with titanium to brace the spine. Still I like to get out and do things.
When I was a teenage boy my grandpa took me aside and said son, you need to learn how to plow a mule because someday you might end up with a wife and hungry mouths to feed. So he taught me to be a plowboy. I still know my gee and haw. But I said all of that to say this. Grandpa was a better man than me because he was breaking horses at age 86 and here I am hurting all over from just digging holes in the yard and planting crepe myrtle trees. I am getting soft. .
If I had life to live over and be able to go back with the memory of what I should and should not do; I would never play sports in high school, I would never be a spelunker or take up tennis.
I would substitute golf for all the other sports. That would have preserved my joints that have simply warn out.
You make a very good point. I have never played golf because I always wanted to play a team sport with contact as a kid. I just never found time to do it. I had every opportunity including free green fees since my mother's first cousin owned a golf course and we had an open door to play there. It was the mistake of my life looking back on it. Now I can't even swing a club without excruciating pain. Wasted
Great year for our herb garden. Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
New neighbor threw a house warming party yesterday. An incredible amount of food and booze. Hats off to the man! I think we'll get along just fine.
The way I read it you can get $250. I think the $125 is a reimbursement if you've retained a credit monitoring service. You can also get access to a credit monitoring service and they'll pay for it.
There are two kinds of golfers Bert. Those that have back problems, and those that are going to have back problems.
Koepka wins today. He seems to be pretty good.
Saw it last Friday.
I'm not qualified, but my daughter is. Last year, someone tried purchasing a house in her name. She has crappy credit. I'll help her out with this.
Yeah, he's a machine. He hasn't hit his prime yet either.
Good luck. I haven't checked my wife's numbers yet.
edit: my wife is eligible.

Less for BIG BLUE MADNESS.Ouch!days?
Good morning from ATX. Currently 78°F. Looking at Possibly 100°F for a high today. We hit 101°F yesterday.
Our little dog, Sadie, is not well this morning. She is shaking and acts disoriented. She refuses food. I'm afraid it's about time. Hope not.
We'll check back later. Y'all behave.

Good morning D from the Berg. Woke up at 4 this morning, got to have lab work this morning so I have to hold off on the coffee for a while!
Going to head to O,boro today, Mrs. M is off today and tomorrow, got to go to Lowe's to get a few things including a sliding compound miter saw! We are also going to Briarpatch restaurant for lunch, I owe her for taking good care of me during hip surgery and my latest bout with the kidney stone! This is also the first place we went to when we started dating 23 years ago!
Happy belated birthday Mr. Don!
I am just about done with my deck, all I have to do is build the steps w/ planter boxes, then stain the deck. About the stain what does the D recommend on how to do the staining? Do I use a brush, roller or spray it?
I hope everyone has a great and safe day! Check back later

My favorite lasagna is crockpot lasagna!Good morning from ATX. Currently 78°F. Looking at Possibly 100°F for a high today. We hit 101°F yesterday.

Good morning D-League. Hope you all had a restful weekend. I did, mostly. Dragged my arthritic knee through a couple 5-mile runs with my wife.
Also went on a long walk with my daughter on which we played the ‘license plate game’ we started more than a decade ago when she was just a kid — it was a way back then to make a walk a treasure hunt. We hike about 1.5 miles over near the closest subway station where lots of people live who come to the area to work in DC. Yesterday we hit 30 separate plates — 28 different states from Vermont to Oregon, along with DC and Ontario, Canada. Didn’t see Kentucky. Small states from Connecticut to lightly populated Montana and North Dakota. Lots of people coming and going in a cluster of about a square mile.
I hope the Cats get good news early this week on the center who may reclassify - NFaly Dante. He’d be a nice piece to add.

Good morning D League
Monday morning brings us 75° with a high of 86°, Plenty of sunshine with scattered showers late afternoon. Set your clock for 4:00 PM. These rains have brought weeds and more weeds so they need pulling. I might wait a while before I dig them up because the weather now is Sweat City.
Lots of other things to do to keep me busy so I best get to it. Have a great day all.

Morning D. Greetings from the shanty.

You all are in a tough situation. I kept hoping for a miracle when Sugar had Kidney Disease. I waited too long. It was a rough time in my life.
What does your Vet say about her?
If you used pressure treated lumber for the deck you typically want to wait 6 months to allow the lumber to dry out before you stain it. Sometimes even longer. Personal preference on the brush roll or spray thing. Usually working the stain in with a brush ensures more even coverage into the grain. Although tedious.
Yes. She's roughly 16 years old. Seemed okay yesterday. Liver disease may have finally got her.
She got in a fight with our English Shepherd a few years ago. Tore up her hind quarter, but survived. Little booger jumped up on my desk a few weeks ago, dragged a 6 piece Zaxby's chicken plate off the desk and started eating it.
Yeah, this one is tough. She was rescued about 10 years ago.
Good luck with Sadie ATC.
