I'm being taken to lunch by an old family friend in about a half hour. A rare occurrence, but one I shall enjoy. I wonder what I want for lunch...

We are just puttering around this weekend, waiting for Rachel to go into labor. Her due date is tomorrow. I’m ready for grandson #2! Congratulations, Gramps! Thanks! Contractions, though light and irregular, have started. I think he will be here by tomorrow afternoon sometime.

Well, the wife is in the air for the last leg. Should see her again at about 9 tomorrow morning.
Can't wait.

Congrats Shannon! John, I too am recognized by some only when I am with my dogs, but it is for walking with them (they run around me, while I walk). And, though I had nothing to do with it, it makes me happy when they tell me that they are beautiful dogs.
Anyway, I am off to pick up my friend who can't play guitar much anymore. But I can back him up and he can try to sing a few. And a couple neighbors are coming by to join us for my smoked brisket and St Louis Style smoked ribs. The meat should be done in about an hour. I got beer and wine. You all are invited.

A daylight savings warning--be sure to set your IRA and 401k back a year... (...oops, that's already been done for you!)

Made me check but actually I'm still up a couple of grand year over year and I took out 11 grand for mandatory minimum withdrawal and management fee so overall I'm still 13 grand ahead. Can't say what it will look like next week but I don't think the virus panic will go away anytime soon.

So glad we don't do daylight savings time here.
