Good morning beachy. (((HUGS))) to you too.

Not much happening here today - office work.

I’d like to leave early, but not much chance of that.

[beachn4fun]

I’d like to leave early, as well. And, not much chance of that, either. LOL

Have a great weekend.

[beachn4fun]

Congrats grandma

[E.G.C.]

Well, not much is going on. Chuck's BP has been running a little bit low the last few days but he's up and at 'em right now. He has an appointment with the doctor next week.

We checked it at 98/47 yesterday afternoon.

[GodBlessUSA]

Yay, Friday! I hope you have a fantastic weekend! Booboo is going to a friend's today. I'll do weed whacking and other fun chores. ;)

[GodBlessUSA]

My prayers for Chuck. I hope he is feeling much better today.
Hugs

[beachn4fun]

wow

that is low

the doctor isn’t concerned enough to consider it an emergency?

[beachn4fun]

Oh lucky you.

hehe

[E.G.C.]

Chuck is feeling much better today than he did yesterday.

The doctor wants to keep his BP as low as possible beucase of the congestive heart failure that he had back in March. Obivously the notion is if the BP is too high there a risk of CHF recurring.

He's doing OK. He's out in the garden working as I'm typing this message.

[beachn4fun]

Never heard of this being done. But, glad all is well and the doctor is watching. Now, maybe you should get off the computer and go outside?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning, Arrowhead...LOL! Could be a close relative. Dangerous thing, petting a moose.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Uniquely unique, unique!

beachy.....#400!!

[stand watie]

HI, sweetie.

free dixie SMOOCH,sw

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning, Arrowhead....I’m in time for breakfast...thanks. Looks like you Texas folks are warming up again. The street says we had at least a little rain over night, and it is misting now.

[unique]

So, I was thinking today - why not try to make up something for Kathy in Alaska for all she does for the Troops and to keep the threads running day after day, along with others, of course....

Here's the result......

[luvie]

Prayers that Chuck’s health improves, and that blood-pressure gets back to normal!

[Kathy in Alaska]

If I got the 7th right, the Coastie story leads off the show. I was trying to find the 4th, because that is when I thought I saw it. But lo and behold I saw it again on the 7th. Recon is a show that is monthly, I think. It repeats throughout the month.
