May 2nd - A house

May 3, 2025
Greetings foolish mortals.  Exciting news!!!

The BBP has bought a house!!!  Looked at a house yesterday, really liked it and submitted an offer.  It was an aggressive offer and showed the sellers I was serious.  Got a call from my realtor around 9:30 and he said I probably wouldn't mind him calling late for what he had to tell me.  My offer was accepted!!!  Wired the escrow over today and will begin the process with inspection and all that fun stuff.  Can't wait to be finally done with renting...again.

So that's it!!!  That's the big one!!!  Any ideas on where the quote is from?

Until  next time...

May 1st - Hello May

May 1, 2025
Welcome foolish mortals and welcome to May. Cant believe the year is almost half over and we’re closer to the haunt season. 

This is a busy time for the BBP. Work is ramping up and I’m getting more involved with everything. Also we are in the process of buying a house. Yay!!!  Have put an offer down today and will maybe hear something by tonight. Very excited about this prospect. Had another last week but the sellers were just playing games. Made a really strong offer and they wanted to pl...

April 3rd - Loss

April 3, 2025
Sometimes something hits you harder than you expect and causes all sorts of emotions, thoughts and feelings. That something happened on April 1st, 2025, when we lost Val Kilmer. I’ve always liked Val in all his films and can appreciate his willingness to dive into his role. One of the movies of his that greatly affected me was his portrayal of Jom Morrison in The Doors. It is what really got me more into their music and inspired me to learn all I could about him and although I feel the movi...

April 1st - April fools

April 2, 2025
Greetings foolish mortals And happy April Fools’ Day. we are now in the second quarter of 2025 and it’s just going faster and faster it seems.

April fools should be canceled because no amount of jokes or pranks could match the debacle that we have going on in this country right now. It’s embarrassing and very Disheartening I just wonder if we can survive the next almost 4 years.

Baseball season is here and unfortunately my Braves are not doing very well. In fact, they to win a game. Theyâ...

March 17th - Happy St. Patrick's Day

March 18, 2025
Greetings foolish mortals and happy St. Patrick's Day!!!  14 years ago, I was in Dublin, Ireland, have an amazing time.  So much fun was had and so little sleep too.  There was too much to do to sleep.  The city is amazing and beautiful and so much fun and welcoming.  I highly suggest a trip there if you can.



Until next time...

March 1st - Hello March

March 2, 2025
Greetings foolish mortals and welcome to March.  Can't believe how fast this year is going but we're almost a quarter of the way through it.

I know I haven't updated much, again, but it's been a pretty busy and hectic time in the life of The BBP.  So as I'm sure you've all seen the debacle that is causing mass chaos through the country and government, it has affected The BBP as well.  Not easy to focus on many things when you're stressed and worried about your job and whether or not you'll hav...

Feb 2nd - A day for remembering

February 3, 2025
Today is not a normal day.  Today is a day of remembering the 2 year anniversary of my mother's passing.  It's been rough at times and I know it's been very hard on my father.  While I remember her and miss her I do know she is out of pain and has been keeping tabs on us all.

Love means never saying goodbye.
Love means it will all be alright.
Love means always seeing the good.
Love means never forgetting.

Love and miss you mom.

Feb 1st - Welcome to February

February 1, 2025
Greetings foolish mortals and welcome to February.  I wish I could say this is a good time to be doing things but unfortunately it's not.  We have a Moron in charge of our country now and he's doing everything he can to dismantle the innards and working part that has kept us churning for decades.  All he does is blame others and tries to talk himself up to be a great president when a true leader doesn't need to do that.  

OK, enough of that crap.  This year has started off pretty busy and thin...

Dec 31st - Goodbye 2024!!!

December 31, 2024
Greetings foolish mortals!!!  We are gathered here today to bid adieu to 2024.

It's been a wild and crazy year and much has happened during the 365 days of this year. 

Biggest change was the BBP left his previous, long sought after position with Lockheed and moved over to the U.S. Navy where he's busy getting into the groove of things.

Hope everyone has an enjoyable and safe NYE.

Until next year...

BBP out!!!
