Hiddy ho bugs; Central VA checking in here. Nothing much new here, just rain. Poor DGS had his first game rained out today. DH is out stripper fishing so I've been left to my own devices. lol Pab, great news on winning the prize. Yum on the supper. Dee, hope things go well with the move. I know all about accumulating stuff. Hope, glad you're back, sorry you're having a little problem. JJ, loved the pic of Trevor!!! Congrats on being a Grandmom again. Trapper, hope DD is okay. Francine, can't wait to read the rest of the trip saga. My, new temp job is going okay. Nothing special, but the people are nice. I'm taking the bus to work, since parking is such a mess downtown and the cost is huge. It's working out very well. Frannie say hello to everyone. She's eating again and feeling pretty good. I'll be checking in again with her tomorrow. She doesn't have her computer right now, it's being upgraded. Hopefully, she'll get it back sometime next week. DH and I are planning a weekend trip to see her in a couple of weeks. DH, of course, will find some time to fish. lol Well, that's about it from here. Hope everyone has a great weekend. I'll be checking back in later. Hugs Lynda

Stripper fishing? Let me guess, you get a bunch of barely clad girls lined up on the pier...No?

I don't understand why anyone who works in the downtown area insists on driving there. Usually the excuse for being late is traffic and finding a parking space. We even have Park and Ride where you leave your car at the outskirts of town and a bus goes directly downtown in about a half hour when it's about 45 minutes of stop and go if you drive yourself and another half hour to find parking.

I feel better each time you say Franni is feeling better. I hope some spring sunshine will aid her.

So, what is stripper fish? Kathey

Hi Kathey. Stripper is also called rock bass. It's a great, mild tasting, white fish. We just love it. Hugs Lynda

You and Franni are so lucky to live so close to each other. I am envious.

Give her my love when you talk to her. Hope she gets her computer back soon, I miss her a lot.

Enjoy your weekend off from work, Lynda. Glad the job is going well...BB

Hi, Lynda. Good to hear from you and thanks for the news of Franni. Do you like to fish? Sometimes I do, especially in salt water. Glad the job is going well. Have a nice evening.

You've probably had large or small mouth bass. The rock bass is usually saltwater or in the brackish water. I really don't like regular bass to eat. Hugs

Hey Lynda, like the little green guy you picked. Glad to hear about Franni. Hope you had a good day left to your own devices. I have been digging in the hall closet, found some more of DH's boxes...sorting through some more interesting stuff. How much longer at this job?

Hugs...Pab

Heck, even though I talk to Frannie on the phone her not having her computer is driving me crazy. Hope you enjoy your Mexican night out. Hugs
