Morning Y'all!
I'm also trying to stay busy so I don't get overwhelmed by thinking about the Texas Wildfire seeing how I know @baymule lives in Texas and I also have family there. As far as I know of my family is further away from where the fire is but it's still scary knowing that is going on.

I’m hundreds of miles from the fires, safe here, but we have our fires too. This is going to impact the beef prices. If yall know someone raising cattle and can swing it, buy a side of beef now and stock the freezer.

Drizzling today. Going to go work on sheetrock today and tomorrow.

Hubby's family down there is far away so they are safe. That's a nasty fire

Just an observation...

A finished side of beef will most likely take up two chest freezers or one large chest freezer. Especially if you have the fat for tallow and bones for broth bagged up. It also helps to organize cuts and ground into open top boxes or if you have a upright freezer by shelf.

The Bride Tribe bouquets are done (EXCEPT for one), flower girl basket completed, my bouquet done. 1st pic Bride Tribe and Flower Girl basket, 2nd pic Matron of Honor holding her bouquet, 3rd pic is my bouquet- I cried when it was shown to me on Sunday. FH did go to get measured for his Tux on March 3rd. We didn't go with Men's Wearhouse for the guys attire (they don't have the colors we needed at all), we went with Regancy Clothiers which partners with Jim's Formal Wear and right now there is a promo going on where the groom gets his attire for FREE so pass the word if you know of a couple getting married. Each member of Team Groom only had to put down $100 at the measuring and pay the other $100 at time of pickup which is June 13th.
