Good morning all,

BK here reporting for nothing. I don't want Nucky to consider me AWOL. The next thing you know, he'll be sending Mario and Luigi into the closet to find me.

Just finished ironing the new bedroom curtains (what a pain) but I can't stand wrinkles. Expecting an area rug for the bedroom to be delivered today. We is on a roll! Wheeee.

Those who follow the rules are on the money and wouldn't survive a day over here with some of the things used as decorations.

What's the deal with the markers from the Golf Courses as decoration? I think they look great. It is a Golf Community, No? Is it OK or was it supposed to decorate inside the house in the Chi-Chi Rodrigues Room? FORE!
And yet it is still beautiful over there, still part of TV and most everyone is friendly and gets along. I did not retire to come down here and be a snitch and I have better things to do than worry about lawn decorations. NOTHING but MYOB and BYOB for me.

Saving Private Ryan was in my Blu-Ray player much of this morning and last evening. Great movie. The assistant casting director's parents live in the Villages or did the last I looked. Talked to the father of the casting director who when Shakespeare in Love won the Oscar for Best Picture instead of Saving Private Ryan he was quite upset. Sure like that depiction of the battle Normandy and environs of June 6, 1944 through June 13, 1944 a lot better than Shakespeare in Love.

I saw that Ryan movie five times when it came out and try to watch it at least once a year since. Saving Private Ryan (1998) - Rotten Tomatoes
A few more views of NOTHING yesterday and last night with a count of 238, 030 as of 8:09 AM EST 2/11/2019. Still running a little over 500 views per day. Yesterday's may be closer to 600 by the 8:55 AM count.

I Jiggy with what you're laying down there FW. I don't remember if I mentioned it so here goes. Someone called in on us whist we were in N.J. over the summer because of an overgrown lawn and weeds in the cracks of the driveway.

Let's see, have a landscaper extraordinaire, Choice Maintenance who takes care of it all. Then we had a House Sitter and The Villages Service who checks the house and various friends and neighbors with an eyeball on the joint. So fret not. I was in or past compliance. All our decorative stuff was in the Garage in case of a storm so I didn't hurt anybody else. We were Spic and Span so to speak.

Maybe the caller gave the wrong house number as there is one Sloboleum in our hood but call? NEVER EVER! I'll let someone else mind their business. I'm NOTHING but with you! But for me, I'm for MYOB but I'm for BYO Iced Tea.

That person who Ratted on me did me a Big Favor. I swear that's the day I chilled out in full, in full. Whatever, as long as I've got NOTHING I'm cool.

What about the Golf Marker? It's NOTHING but 5 feet tall 2 feet wide and 5 or 6 inches deep. Weighs about 300 to 350 lbs or more. It's in the ground at least two feet or more. Good or No Good? What say Yous! It is beautiful and a conversation piece and every person who ever visited has wanted to take it home for their yard. It took 3 men to deliver it from the Maintenance Dept. at the Golf Course on their lunch break of course.

BK, I've got the duplicate of the supercritical sister. NOTHING but a pain in the Driveway Crack. I limit the contact as its better for her condition. I'll NOTHING but leave that comment there.

You are a great Sis for striving to make her more comfortable. Maybe once she sees you've arrived in Paradise she'll lighten up. In my case, it reminds me of a song. Frank Sinatra - The Impossible Dream - YouTube

BYO Beverage. I can't handle my liquor much anymore. If I have more than one glass of wine it is NOTHING but sleepytime.

We have NOTHING but an actual hydrant that my husband used back in the day that was given to us that he made into a light. We have it in our back yard behind our villa walls so it is not out of compliance.

He's a Good guy FW but NOTHING other than a Silly Goose Today!

I got your drift! I remember when an Old Buddy said Smoke Eater one time and I had never heard of that before.

My Uncle Jimmy was a Firefighter and lived in a humongous Apartment Building next door to the Firehouse. If my head was where it should have been instead of being a Juvenile Delinquent I would have had the honor of following Uncle Jimmy or into The Service but NOOOO! Had to find my own route, the rough way! Oh well, all's well that ends well!

Well one needs to be silly once in a while to keep mental health up. And not for NOTHING.

My Uncle Alvin was fire chief of the Itasca Fire Department. I went to his funeral in 1994 and they had fireman from all over Chicagoland land there with a large procession carrying his casket to the cemetery or wherever it was actually going. He was almost in tears when he described to me his handling of a horrible plane wreck (Flight 191) and the recovery of bodies from it when he got called in as Fire Chief to deal with it and not for NOTHING.

They are also known as Jakes which is how our dog got his name. I have found that being a firefighter is not like any other profession because you only stop being a firefighter when you die. He still NOTHING but lives and breathes firefighting and follows the news on fire depts all over the country.
