Good Afternoon AL,

Not much going on here. Got the flooring all down in my house. Cousin started eating again and can communicate a little with hand squeezing. It's definitely not what the doctors expect who gave up on her last week. This weekend is a family reunion and my brother in law is the chef so I've got a feeling a lot of meat is going to be smoked and grilled. How's everyone doing today?

Good morning y'all,

Pete it is good to hear that your cousin is doing better.

I am still working but looks like it will be slowing down. That will give me more time to do things around the house and get rid of a bunch of junk that has collected over the years. Heck, I may be able to get one of the cars in my two car garage.

Good day y'all. Today is my day off. I am barbecuing two Boston Butts and a slab of Hollywood ribs. I started this task at 8 this morning and just wrapped them in foil to finish the last three hours. There is about 12 pounds of meat slow cooking. I have macaroni salad made and making some coleslaw. My daughter is bringing baked beans and an my daughter-in-law is bringing turnip greens and macaroni and cheese for the kids. I have lots of Milo's sweet tea, some lemonade and a few Cokes and gatorade. Along with the tending to the cooking, I mowed the yard, went to the store, did a couple loads of laundry and a bit of cleaning. It has been a busy day.

Haha. Man...does it sound good though. Sounds like some good eatin for just a regular dinner night?!

Got the rest of the flooring down at my house. Working on storage space inside the house. Found out that I'm going to be a dad today. Couldn't find out much from the ultra sound because it's too early. but did see it and heard the heart beat. Crazy.

Howdy y'all. How is everybody doing? I have been tiding up things of my wife's. She put the titles away for the Taurus and my truck and I haven't been able to locate them. So I sent off for replacment titles. My daughter wanted my Mercury, so I made a deal on it for her and she is happy. I ordered a spoiler for the Taurus so it doesn't look like an old person's car.

Morning AL members and George. It is an overcast day here this morning. It is another day off for me. Starting to enjoy this free tiime but gaining some of my weight back though. Mowing grass just is not enough exercise.
