Morning, Sarmajor!
And a good morning to all the lovely Ladies!
Well, the big news out of Florida is: Disease. Last week sometime, one of the daughters brought home from school something extra: a mutant sinus infection from the gymnasium.
Kid was coughing and miserable for a day or two. Then Sarge got it, and it laid him low for three days. Now as of yesterday, The Bride is sick, to the point of calling in sick from duty this morning.
Sarge tucked The Bride into bed with a cup of coffee and English muffins with a side of NyQuil and Mucinex. We’ll see how she fares later today. So far, the elder daughter hasn’t so much as sniffled; her smug grin is truly insufferable...
Well, the day rolls on, so Let’s Have Fun!

Good morning dear ((HUGS))
Hope you get to see the shuttle.
I didn’t get to see it when it came to DC - that’s the downside of not paying attention to the news.

Going OK here in Oklahoma. My brother began his 8 day outpatient treatment at the hospital yesterday.
Later this morning, I'm going to take Bo out to the vet for his monthly round of flea spray.
