Wear the "puppy" out and both of you can pile up in your recliner for another napRunning on a power nap right now. It's been a long 40 hr weekend...
Still got responsibilities, so now it's playtime with our hound. The S&M HJ "Pickle" is my pocket companion for the rest of the day.
I don't know how long the squeaky gummy bear will last though...

Hope you shake whatever big you have.I've had this extended illness going on and as a consequence I haven't been to Tennessee since the first week of October. This has been weighing on me. I tend to worry about it. So I got to feeling a little better this weekend and decided to make a quick trip to Tennessee. Normally I drive it in one day, but I didn't feel up to a 565 mile drive, so I drove to Huabstadt, Indiana and got a hotel, which is where I am now. My usual travel knife is a Vic Cadet. That's the red one. Nice, slim, useful tools
Being a silver lining, glass half full* kind of guy, one benefit on this illness is I've lost about 15 pounds. I kept having to pull my pants up every time I got out of the car, so the first thing I did when I got in the room was dig out my Pioneer X and drill a new hole in my belt. Nobody wants to see an old geezer's pants fall down
I'm mostly off the grid in TN, so I'll see y'all next week.

*Old engineer joke, you've probably all heard:
A pessimist sees the glass as half empty;
An optimist sees the glass as half full;
An engineer thinks the glass is twice as big as it needs to be
Thanks Paul
Thanks Rick. Me too, its drug on entirely too long. I see a pulmonologist on 2/14 so hopefully she can at least diagnose me.
Thanks Bob!You're a good dad to dig down deep for your pup. Nice S&M!
I hope you can get everything sorted out & start to feel better Mike.I've had this extended illness going on and as a consequence I haven't been to Tennessee since the first week of October.

On a brighter note, great use of the Vic punch
That's the plan, she may be getting older but she's still got that "young pup" energy
Excellent, did you add some black with the red
The jigging that Cosimo does on his bone is absolutely outstanding.
Yes sirBack in the pocket today...

Keep an even keel Tim & don't tread too far into new & unknown waters, as far as new laws go. The water is still pretty muddy (grey) here in the U.S.
Studyin up. New laws, or the loosenin of them more properly, means new plants in the garden this year
They are hard to put away Bart. Nice.Waynorth lamb again today.
