Good morning D, we are now down to 30 degrees, but it's going to be a beautiful day.
Very emotional day at church yesterday, the two ladies talked about the cancer they have. One of the ladies ask that we specifically pray that they get a triple positive on their results, not sure what is involved with that, but I am asking the D, to pray for these two ladies PLEASE!!!!! Just pray for great results for them!!!!
We also ordained one of my best friends nd now they will be leaving our church for the church that has called him to theirs, We will miss them. Then on the 11th we are going to ordain another very close friend of mine and he will also be leaving for another church. I know they are doing what GOD has called them to do, but I will miss them!!!!!
I hope the D, has a great day and Prayers for the D, thanks for your friendship, even if it is cyber!!!!

Morning D. Greetings from the shanty.
What a spectacular display of prowess from the free throw line by Bama. Even dismal from the three line, for them. 7 of 27 I think.
More coffee..................................................................................

Thank you for requesting prayer for your friends and sisters in Christ. May God bless them and touch them. Also prayers for the newly ordained. May God bless their ministry.
Good Morning all,
May your day be fruitful and multiple for you. May God allow you to bask in his glory and may God give you a blessing today that will allow you to give him praise! God is worthy of our praise!
NOTE: The below IS verbiage from an official government document.
I received something via email; (I will past some parts below)
FEMA Advisory March 24, 2021 1 FEMA to Help Pay Funeral Costs for COVID-19-related Deaths In early April, FEMA will begin providing financial assistance for funeral expenses incurred after Jan. 20, 2020 for deaths related to coronavirus (COVID-19) to help ease some of the financial stress and burden caused by the pandemic. The policy was finalized today, and FEMA is now moving rapidly to implement this funeral assistance program nationwide. To be eligible for COVID-19 funeral assistance, the policy states: The applicant must be a U.S. citizen, non-citizen national, or qualified alien who incurred funeral expenses after Jan. 20, 2020 for a death attributed to COVID-19. If multiple individuals contributed toward funeral expenses, they should apply under a single application as applicant and co-applicant. FEMA will also consider documentation from other individuals not listed as the applicant and co-applicant who may have incurred funeral expenses as part of the registration for the deceased individual. An applicant may apply for multiple deceased individuals. The COVID-19-related death must have occurred in the United States, including the U.S. territories and the District of Columbia. This assistance is limited to a maximum financial amount of $9,000 per funeral and a maximum of $35,500 per application. Funeral assistance is intended to assist with expenses for funeral services and interment or cremation. In the coming weeks, a dedicated 800 number will be established to help individuals who apply. In the meantime, potential applicants are encouraged to start gathering the following documentation: An official death certificate that attributes the death to COVID-19 and shows that the death occurred in the U. S. The death certificate must indicate the death “may have been caused by” or “was likely the result of” COVID-19 or COVID-19 like symptoms. Similar phrases that indicate a high likelihood of COVID-19 are considered sufficient attribution. Funeral expense documents (receipts, funeral home contract, etc.) that include the applicant’s name, the deceased individual’s name, the amount of funeral expenses, and the dates the funeral expenses were incurred.
Is this some form of reparations? Sorry if considered morbid or untimely but this is ridiculous of FEMA WITH OUR TAX DOLLARS..... This is a WHOLE lot of money!!!

Good morning D-League.
Prayers sent for the ladies in Cord's church.
Beautiful, cool spring morning here after a dismal rainy Sunday. It feels a bit like a taunt from Mother Nature, as I'm stuck in my home office looking out the window.
DIsappointed but not surprised by Alabama's demise last night. Every year some team rides the 3-point shot into the tournament, and Kentucky fans swoon over the idea that the Cats might adopt that system. And every year, in a one-and-done tournament, a cold shooting night kills them. Hell, that wasn't even Kentucky's game in 2010, but WVA forced the Cats into it, the players took the bait instead of driving the ball in to the teeth of the zone, and, well, you know.
What pays off in a six-game tournament is defense, rebounding and free throw shooting for the most part. The oldest formula in the game. Yes, you have to be able to score, but I noted this weekend most of the games ended up in the 60s, not the 90s.
Anyway, hope everyone has a good Monday.

In any event:
(I found this out Thursday last week. My regular day off was this past Friday.)
I may have the chance to move to Florida. My job may allow this very soon. (I will actually be allowed to work from anywhere, even overseas.) Not finalized yet but further along than any of us knew until today.
God's ways are not our ways. I knew that already and could never imagine God's plan as he can make things happen that are unimaginable to my earthly mind.
I doubt we'd do anything until later this year but it was and is a desire my wife and I both have. (Moving to a better area for housing and to be nearer the ocean.)
My darling and I talked about it. I'd move to South Carolina where one of our homes is at and find another or build. The low- lying land is the drawback in my mind along with the minimal amenities of Asian style markets but they are there. (They don't call it the low country for nothing.)
I also have North Carolina in mind too just due to better changing seasons weather-wise but no family in the area.
Michigan is not an option now though many relatives there but weather....the snow....Nope. I will invite them to visit US...
Texas may not be a choice but considered the Galveston area but never lived there. No desire for San Antonio again though we still own a home there and am considering another one. No ocean...
Florida is a real possibility as my son lives there and one daughter likes it and one daughter may. Not sure of the best area in Florida.
Thought about Tampa, Destin, Panama City, and possibly Pensacola, or Jacksonville. I will have to do research and am in no rush but I'd need an area with a decent area for Asian type markets as my wife and I enjoy eating that way. (A decent Korean population.)
I know a couple of you know Florida and other areas. I don't converse with many but you all are a haven I enjoy and cherish.
I am blessed beyond measure. I didn't get that job I had a second interview a couple weeks ago BUT, I will state again, No MAN can take away from me what God has in store for me. This actually just transpired today. (I started writing this Thursday.)
My desire in applying for another job was location. It was never about the money. I like the job I do but I feel if I don't try to get a better job I am not doing due diligence as a provider and exceling.(I can do that in other ways too.)
My plan was to retire as soon as possible but if this works I can work longer where we decide to retire. I have this in mind as a last move but who knows.... To God be the glory, his ways are not our ways. Trust in the Lord and lean not to your own understanding. I know this and continually this is confirmed in my life. Amazing to me how this happens but not surprising!
I cannot tell you how many times God has provided for me EXACTLY on time and NEVER late. Thanks for reading in any event. I know this was a book but I condensed my feelings.
Who knows what tomorrow holds. I am thankful! I had to declare my blessings and give God the praise. Thank you for allowing me to indulge.

And they are going to fold like a cheap suit.
I see they finally freed the Ever Given cargo ship.
www.yahoo.com
Ever Given Container Ship Famously Stuck in Suez Canal Is Now Free
After nearly a week of top-tier canal memes and trade-related headaches of truly global proportions, the Ever Given was refloated on Monday.
BBUK, if warm weather and beach is number one in your move then Florida is a good choice, except Florida has no high ground except in the West. I have never seen better sand beaches than in Florida. The Texas beaches that I have been to, do not how a light for Florida's. (Note my favored beaches are in Cap Cod but they sure as heck are not sandy and it sure is not warm.)
I assume you are going to be able to work remote via a computer. So maybe you need to check for a spot with warm weather, beach and high speed internet. It is shocking at how hard that is to get in some areas. In rural Kentucky I have four carriers on my street and one offers 1 gig download. You go to some large cities and you can't get near that.
Good luck in your decision. There are a lot of good destinations in America. I have lived in Kentucky, North Carolina, Florida, Indiana, Texas and Maryland. I loved all of them.

Bert I have lived in a lot of good places too, Kentucky, Fort Knox, Paducah, Dawson Springs and Muhlenberg Co., world traveler here!!!!
They are forecasting a high of 37 for us on Thursday, but back up to 70 three days later. Then they are showing no less than 70 for daytime highs for the following couple of weeks. Hope this is the last of the cold weather.
Thank you Sir. We are in no rush. We will take time and then the Lord will tell me anyway. It does take due diligence. I cannot tell you the difference it makes in how I already approach things. I am thankful!
Best of luck to you, whatever you decide.
Yeah I don't see them beating Baylor. They barely escaped with a win over a #15 seed.
Three Pac-12 teams left in the Elite 8. Didn't see that coming.
If you guys do not mind, I will probably start jumping in from time-to-time.
I don't follow the sports side hardly at all anymore, and the Political Thread, well, you know how it is.
I like to read those threads, but I do not interact very much there.
You guys seem more my speed these days.

Bout time somebod Y showed back up
The seeding for the number ones were solid except for one. But this committee did a horrible job seeding. Of course it was a truncated year for a lot of programs and that make it difficult but the seeding committee should be fired.
The Big Ten and ACC were over seeded as usual but the Pac 12 teams have shined.
If you are old and grumpy you will fit in well! 🤣If you guys do not mind, I will probably start jumping in from time-to-time.

Same reasons I post mostly here. Read a few threads on RR from time to time. During election season I was on the Political often but that mess gets old. A lot of name calling I don't need or enjoy.If you guys do not mind, I will probably start jumping in from time-to-time.

I'm the type that I don't spend a whole lot of time looking at other threads....there's a ton and I don't want to spend that much time reading all or most....no desire to spend all day on the computer, laptop, tablet, phone.
Remember the first time I checked out this thread. It was like an oasis in a vast desert. Friendly people, no name calling, good interaction on all sort of things, etc.
Welcome augustaky1. Have seen many of your posts in other threads and you're a good poster.
If you ask my daughter. Check, and, CHECK!
Looks like I fit the criteria.
Thank you.
I just signed up for a new service called Bill Forwarding. You should see that information very soon.

Welcome. Join in anytime.
I appreciate the kind words.
I agree with you on the name-calling and such.
I actually follow(ed) the Political Thread a lot. However, I am burned out on almost all of that stuff.
I found myself following several posters in a more general manner. The trolling gets to be too much anymore.
I have been reading this thread off-and-on for a good while. I like the geniality of the posters here.
I hope to add to the conversations positively.
I see you are from Northern Ky, what part?
Originally from Augusta, Ky. Hence the screen name.
Now I am in Erlanger.
After the Navy, I moved back to Augusta and knew I would drive to "the city" for work. A few years back, I decided I was tired of living in the flood zone and the flood insurance.
I sold the house and got an apartment close to work here in NKY while looking for property to build on.
I decided I liked being 10 minutes from work. I sold the property and bought a little ranch house that needs fixing up—tons of projects to keep me busy.
More than you asked. But I have had lots of coffee this morning.
I enjoy reading about the D!!! Thank you for your service!!!! I was NG 69-75!
Welcome my brother, we are just a bunch of old boys having a good time. We have a nice lady check in every once in awhile too.If you guys do not mind, I will probably start jumping in from time-to-time.

Of all the forums you will find the D League the most knowledgeable about living and life. We are down to earth, have many diverse life experiences and treat each other with respect. Even when we may not agree. I doubt the D League agrees with half of the things I post but no one attacks me or makes fun of me. They might think it but they keep it inside, hit like and move on.
So welcome and please jump right in.

I have found myself reading about the Paddock more-and-more and following basketball less-and-less. Finally got rid of live TV about a year ago and do not miss it one iota.
I did 15 years in the Navy and then the administration side of the Navy could not figure out how to handle my sleep apnea.
So my career ended due to not being world-wide deployable. It is a long story and it broke my heart. Truthfully.
I am a person that got far more from the Navy than I can ever repay.
I do appreciate the sentiment, but I never need to be "thanked" for my service. Everything good I have in my life is a direct result of the things I learned and was able to experience during my hitch.
Luckily, I never had to serve in combat. I was a tech weenie that got to see and do a lot of NEAT stuff.
I do appreciate everybody who stepped up and I think most of us are better for experiencing the military in whatever branch that would have been.
- Good Morning, D-Leagueanites and Lurkers.
