Hey, where'd the party get moved to?

I hope you all are enjoying your day!

We're all still here, oldbroad!

We escaped more severe weather last night, but there are 5 fatalities so far in SE Missouri from a tornado.

Good afternoon Boomers! Another day and another 4 quarters earned...I am ready for the weekend! Hope it doens't stay too cold too long TaintedFury. Great news Draclvr...storms are never fun. Hey Ho OldBroad...it's good to see you! It's time for hot chocolate and a bagel for sure Gerry and Connie. How did the trimming and pruning go Hagatha? Have a wonderful evening all.

Good Morning and Happy Thursday...fresh strong brew await along with tea and hot chocolate Connie's break room goodies. Not much on my schedule today...groceries this morning.

Have a happy Day!

Gerry

Good morning, Danish, Donuts and Bagels in the Break Room. Manicure and lunch out with a friend today. Trivia with friends at CVI tonight. Enjoy your day everyone.

Soot, the trees look great. They're all mature trees - an ancient apple tree, and old, very tall Willow, and a lovely Acer that hangs over my back deck and shades it in the hot afternoon sun. They're all nicely shaped now.

The second floor deck's another story. My neighbour, who is a carpenter, built it for us 6 years ago, and I've never trusted it; the glass railings always banged around in the wind and I never felt it was securely fastened to the building. I had an engineer look at it and it basically has to be rebuilt. My neighbour is now angry at me, which is rather uncomfortable since we share this property. I don't get it; if I was doing work for a friend I would give them my best work, not my worst. Anyway, it's just another reason to move, I guess.

How unfortunate your neighbor took this personally, hagatha. I would think - especially with a 2nd floor deck - he would rather it be secure than chance a terrible accident.

Cold, but sunny today. Not much on my plate except for running in town to work on a friend's computer and then bowling tonight.

Happy Thursday!

Good Morning and Happy Good Friday! Coffee, tea and hot chocolate are ready to start your day!

Gerry

Good Morning Everyone

Hope everyone is enjoying their breakfast coffee/ tea or hot chocolate

G' Day Soot Yes me to as some sunshine would be nice.......

Take Care & Happy Gaming Boomers

Good morning, Danish, Donuts and Bagels in the Break Room. Have a Lovely day everyone.

We've had the most awful rainstorm this week, which has slowed down the progress of my deck. I'm taking the day off, I think. I can work in the basement all weekend and I should be able to get most of the work done down there.

Strong coffee is definitely on order today. I'm trying a new espresso bean from Milano. Very tasty, lots of toffee notes.

Happy Friday everybody!

Good afternoon OldBroad, TaintedFury, Connie, Gerry, Hagatha, Draclvr and everyone and Good Friday to you all. Gerry, I am up for some Lapsang Souchong tea and a Danish from Connie...thank you both. Do you fix computers Drac? Hagatha, sorry to hear your neighbor isn't concerned about safety...chip chip chip away at your projects. Good morning TaintedFury...have a great Saturday!

I do, soot! I also build them and built two gamers with my two grandsons.

Late last year my neighbours built an illegal suite in their basement and I had to put a stop to it (we are a duplex condo and there is no way to legally build a secondary suite in a condo). Our condo insurance company threatened to cancel our condo insurance and made them take it out.

Today they came over and presented their latest scheme: they want to rezone our shared property to an R4, which means 4 dwelling units, so that they can build their suite. As though I needed more stress in my life. Of course I said no. I can veto anything that they try, because we are a condo and they need my permission. But I am so tired of this. I have enough on my plate as it is. I'm going to fast-forward my cleaning and packing.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts and Bagels in the Break Room. Dinner and karaoke at the Eagles tonight. Have a Lovely day everyone.

Good morning Connie, Hagatha, Draclvr and all who pop in later. Hawaiian Kona coffee, Scottish Breakfast tea and bottled Fiji water in the Break Room. Connie, I'll try one of your Blueberry bagels this morning. Hagatha, wishing you a fruitful weekend with cleaning and packing. Have a great Saturday everyone and sleep well tonight TaintedFury...catch you later.

We're having yet another major storm, with ferries being cancelled and sideways rain. I wish I could just stay at home, but I have to get some paint mixed to start on the wall touch-ups. After that it's dpwn tp the basement, where the books await!

Hagatha, it sounds as if you could encourage your neighbours to help you get sorted and sold so that they can then work on the new owners about their schemes...!

A happy and peaceful Easter to everyone

Good MorningLex and a Happy peaceful Easter to you too. Hope everyone has a wonderful day...enjoy a quick cup of coffee, tea or hot chocolate in the break room to start your day!

Happy Easter everyone!

Gerry

Happy Easter Sunday For Tomorrow Everyone

G' Day Soot Thanks Happy Easter to You & Your Family

Take care Boomers Happy Easter & Happy Gaming

Good morning, Danish, Donuts and Bagels in the Break Room. I'm, having family and friends over for an Easter get together. Have a Lovely Easter everyone.

Good morning Connie, TaintedFury, Gerry, Lex, Hagatha, Draclvr, OldBroad, SpaceQuestFan, MBDay630 and anyone else who gets the chance to pop in for morning tea or coffee and a bagel or two. I've settled in for Scottish Breakfast tea and glazed donuts for breakfast today. We plan to see Dungeons and Dragons today and then finish the Ozark tv series on Netflix. Thanks TaintedFury...hope your day was marvelous...enjoy your sleep! Best wishes for your projects today Hagatha!

Happy Easter to one and all !!

Happy Easter, everyone.

More furious wind today, which makes it a perfect packing day. Strong coffee is definitely in order, followed later by a pot of chai and a scone to be consumed down in the dusty basement.

I've told my neighbours that I'm selling, so that should put a stop to the rental suite shenanigans. Maybe we can now just be friendly until I leave.

Soot, Ozark was great. I'd put it in my top 20 for sure. Let us know how Dungeons and Dragons is. I've heard good things about it so far.

A beautiful sunny Easter morning here. We will be heading in town to have dinner with my step-son's family. It will be REALLY great to see our granddaughter who is home on leave from the Army with her boyfriend and new puppy!

Enjoy your day, everyone!
