Bearkeep, pour me your strongest, please.
Heartbreaking day with Dad. I’m not strong enough to go through this again. At least Mom’s not here to see it… 😢
Kimmie, Your in our thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. May you find inner strength and peace to comfort you! 😘

OK, so my Christmas story has been approved. Comments so far have been very kind, including one … "The Lush Christmas Carol" … which, while I find it hyperbolic, also made me smile.
Find it here:
And with that little self-promotion (and look for a cameo in the story, BTW), let's get some caffeine happening.
Bear, I totally enjoyed Dear Father Christmas and your Cameo appearance within it. Now, a cup of Bertha’s Best to toast your hard work as Head Bar Tender!
What would be the sweetest Christmas gift of all?

Boo, Rumpies! 👻
Good All! I saw Kimmie’s photo of the pumpkin and laughed and then thought someone should spank that “naughty” girl.
I’ll have a cup of Bertha’s Best and get started adjusting after 33 days on the road with a project on the East coast. My thoughts and prayers are with you Kat as you and hubby work together on returning your life to normal after Helena. Take Care and Stay Safe all!

TGIF all y’all!
Drinks on me today! I finally got my older daughter to select the flowers for her wedding (it was like pulling teeth) so I can sign that contract, pay the florist, and check that off my list!
Rumor has it that the younger daughter will be getting a proposal soon. 😉 I hope his definition of soon is someone close to mine, I’m busting at the seems with excitement and can’t say a damn thing to anyone IRL.
Gonna try to have part two of The Last Dance ready to submit before we set sail. Not sure if I will have access on the ship or not. Previous cruises it’s been a no, but then those were Disney cruises and this one is not.
Hope everyone is doing well and has fun plans for the weekend.
Kat, It’s great that the oldest decided on the flowers as you don’t need a
“bridezilla” even if it’s your own daughter. Fingers cross on the youngest getting a proposal. It wonderful that she mentioned it to you as she needed her mom to know. Now, the firewalls on ship’s has prevented access to this site. I remember getting a “Word” email from you one time so I wouldn’t miss a chapter. Bon Voyage and enjoy your cruise.
Coffee for me this morning as I need to see our financial planner.
Morning all you Rumpie’s, Speaking of weather. We in the Buena Vists, CO seeing our daughter and it was 45 degrees this morning but mid 80’s later. Back home they are getting Storms and Lightning, my phone let me know if 11 strikes during the night. Take care all and welcome to a Crazy Summer! Looking forward to reading Kat’s next story.
Good Morning to all! Happy Father’s Day to all you guys and a Toast to you fine Ladies who made it possible. Enjoy your day people. My wife and I are headed to visit our oldest daughter for her birthday. She has been the best Father’s Day present that I ever got.
Safe travels Kat as you head home.

Strawberries! Did someone mention Strawberries?
(Lays down on bar) Help yourself, Rumpies! They’re best served with cream!
Are there any left overs available after the usual crowd has been there? I just need one little luck, okay maybe a few more. 😂😂😂

Okay, I seem to be stuck in a Jim Croce mood, so … One Less Set Of Footsteps …
.
IMHO, Croce was never appreciated as much as he should have been.
Jim Croce’s son is a musician/singer and performed a “Tribute Show” of his father’s material in Omaha, NE last year if I remember correctly.
Good Morning all! I’ll have a cup of Bertha’s Best, I can’t just call it coffee when Bertha adds her own touch and flavor to it. By chance is there any of the Coffee Cake leftover from the other day???🙄. My Post Surgery visit yesterday went great. The 1-1/2 drive there for a 15 minute visit wasn’t too bad as we did get some other shopping done. Looking forward to seeing those Comp stories from you wonderful authors. Take Care and Stay Safe and Healthy!
Morning All, Lion love the Seger video to clear my brain fog. A cup of Bertha’s Best and a Sugar Raised Donut if there are any. Slow Recovery but each day is better. I’m wondering about Kimmie’s Comp suggestions. I’ll keep my eyes open. Careful herding Bison and Bear you are an awesome Barkeep. Later….
Evening all, What I thought was Food Poisoning after 2 days turned out to be an infected appendix. So a trip to local ER hospital for tests and then an 90 mile ambulance ride to another hospital for emergency surgery. From the time we arrived I was out of surgery and in my room 2 hours later. No alcohol allowed while on Antibiotics so how about a glass of water with glacier ice from Bear’s country. Night all.
Morning all! A cup of Bertha’s best brewed by a Remarkable Bear! I’ll sit other in a corner as I try to catch up on things after being down in Tampa. We had a wonderful time where it was beautiful and warmer than back in Nebraska with snow. The surprise was that that most of the snow had melted while we were gone. It’s teasing us to think that spring is here when I know better. So Thank you for your hospitality as always. Kat’s quickie stories are worth reading and Kimmie has another wonderful story. Hopeful that her and Bear are getting closer to part 2 of their collaboration. Later… as I enjoy this coffee.

Hope all y’all have a great weekend I may pop in tomorrow while I’m waiting for the flight
Safe Travels!

What the heck is "peacna"? Peach? But it's coffee cake so I will take some along with some hojicha.
New week. New me. Yeah right. I already need another vacation and my last one only started a month ago. Guess this is why retirement is looking appealing (considering next year).
Well, autocorrect didn’t catch Bears “Fat Paw” typing of “Pecan” rolls. Yes, I too need to retire “fully”. Work interferes with our personal lives too much.

Hi Rumpies ❤️
Today, I’m grateful I got to tell my other best friend what she means to me. I lost the other in 2019. Both passing way too young!
I’ve decided to still go on a short vacation next week with my twin. It’s a small window to get away from work and I desperately need a break. My friend will pass very soon… probably while I’m gone. She’s at home with her husband and daughter. She is a remarkable woman - always helping others. She’s been in an high position in state govt for a long time and contributed so much, improving our state in so many ways in her long career.
Cheers to LaLa! ❤️ drinks on me today in her honor…
Tell people how much they mean to you every day!
Love you all!
So sorry to BF LaLa! You did the best thing possible for you and her when you were able to tell her what she means to you. Enjoy your short vacation with your twin. Next week my Wife and I are going to Tampa for a 5 day trip. Looking forward to warmer temperatures.
Any chance that Bertha still has coffee to serve? I’ll take one to get please. I have to prepare the snacks for the next two football games. Cheering on the Chiefs and Lions today. The Chili is ready so I better get with in as game time is fast approaching.
Take Care and Please try to Stay Safe and Healthy.
I’ll have cup of Bertha Best to warm me up. So Today I’m rooting for the Lions 🎉🏈🎉 for my wife and Rump’s Techgoddess. Then later the 🎉🏈Chiefs 🏈🏟️ for my wife. I know a happy wife makes for a better life. It will be interesting come Super Bowl Sunday! Take Care All and Stay Warm!
