Hey Russ, How are you feeling this morning ?

Sent with no malice and not a whole lot of forethought from my new Galaxy Tab 4. Thanks Santa!
Its a good thing I don't get hangovers, but its after 10 and I'm still a little drunk, so I'm feeling pretty good.

I only drink twice a year, new years and July 4th, the rest of the year it might be a beer every 2 months or so.

Yepper, back porch isn't "restricted" to vaping, like the front porch is supposed to be :)

My last 24 years working, I was senior electrician at a hydro-electric plant. Worked on / around the river, in the mountains, and have zero interest in camping! (That, and we live in the foothills, still mostly forested around us, and I can sit on the deck and watch the deer. Why "rough it"??

I also spent many years building and fixing ships, many of them USN, but many also commercial, and some "cruise" - and never worked on a cruise ship I'd be comfortable sailing on.... construction standards for those are WAY below what we built for the Navy!

Figured i would drag the conversation over here cause I don't know all the forum rules and don't want to start nothing in my first week of posting.....:p

Probably, the most fun I had while active was blowing up mines in the Persian Gulf in 90-91 and clearing mines off the beaches in Kuwait. I went to work for general Dynamics after I retired and ended up going to Iraq in 2005-6 and then again 2009-11 to close down the shop.

My wife laughs at me ever since I told her I no interest in taking a cruise somewhere because it seemed like I have been riding ships all my life, lol.

We took a cruise while I was still on active duty and I hated it. Used to being in charge of where and how the ship moves is hard to give up!

I think I'd be buyin some tickets.......y'all are on a roll!!! That's wonderful news!! So very happy for them, and for you! It means so much when you are happy about the person your child marries!

I can't imaging what she'd be like if we weren't home!

Ok, I quoted this cuz I thought....unless you left even earlier, and drove 215mph, you aren't home. Then I just realized you meant if da humans had gone off to a party and left da puppy at home. Derrrrr I'm slow, but I get there eventually....most of the time. lol

This is what is sitting in front Om em

Holds out glass and wiggles it.....coconut rum please lol

Good Morning Everyone!

and of course




again...

I wonder if the new Grammy got a good nights sleep - doubt it. And now Janet and MIke have a new member in the family also - just of a different fashion (and no diapers to change on this one - LOL). :facepalm: :D.

Jup, only trouble I had was getting to sleep, but that is just because of pain. Once I'm asleep, I've actually been staying that way here lately which is wonderful. It was super exciting getting to tell y'all.....but I've known about it for awhile. Was soooooo hard sitting on my fingers with all the grandbaby talk goin on lately. lol Now I finally can yell.... me too...me too.... me too!!!! lol

Hello all! I did my intro on the front porch but had a question about the forum I didn't know if itr was all right to ask there so I figured I would give it a shot here. I see all the banners everyone has for their siggy, and I found one to use that counts the days. But, for the life of me I can't find out where to put it in my profile????

Any direction would be greatly appreciated!!!

Welcome to the back porch notrub!! Mattie told ya right, just copy and paste the link into the box where your signature is. If you ever see one you'd like to change to, just click on it and most if not all of em will take you to where you can make one like it. We love our vets here, so here's a very heartfelt.......Thank you so much for your service!!

- and never worked on a cruise ship I'd be comfortable sailing on.... construction standards for those are WAY below what we built for the Navy!

And now they're all old and falling apart. Still not sure what's up with all the disease we hear about these days on em. No excuse for all that. I LOVE the water and a cruise would my idea of heaven if it weren't for all the crap you hear about these days with the cruise ships.

Thanks so much to everyone for all the well wishes!! Means so much to me. Now we just wait to see whether or not it's twins. It runs in her family every other generation, and this is the generation for it. Her one brother has 3 kids but no twins. Other brother has no kids yet. She's poked out pretty good, so she's either quit holding in her belly, is further along than anyone, including her thinks.......or......there's more than one. Her aunt had a dream she had twin boys.

Very quiet NYE here. The DC rockin eve used to replay the countdown for the central time zone folks, but I reckin they haven't done that for awhile. I'd forgotten that they hadn't done it last time I'd watched either. Don't watch it much, cuz it's just not the same. But then... what is. Now that I think about it, I think that might have been a reason I quit watching it. Before I'd just turn it on when it got close to midnight to see the replay of the countdown. We didn't drink or have any kind of party. Watched Iron Man 3 though finally last night. Gonna have to check out the labor day movie mattie was talkin bout on netflix.

WOW Now I know why I went to DIY Castle Long Reserve $28 for 30ml. Talk about sticker shock.

Sounds like they are really proud of their stuff :facepalm: I just can't bring myself to buy ANY pre-made juice even when I see a 50% off sale and most sales are hard for me to resist. :D

Sorry to intrude, but I couldn't agree more. My son wants to take a cruise for Spring Break and I can't get past the idea that I should get paid to get underway, not the other way around...

No such thing as intruding here on the porch. All are welcome to join in on any conversation. We have even been known to all talk at the same time :D Welcome to the porch.
