Good morning!!!!

Good early (Thursday) arvo. Overnight Low of 14C and it's presently21.7C, which is just below the predicted High of 22C. It's cloudy/overcast with some drizzle called for this evening. The weatherguessers are calling for (yet another) rain 'event' starting Sunday. There's a 70% chance tomorrow (Remembrance Day) but it's predicted for the afternoon, after the 1100 parade/ceremony... so, I won't be 'here' until after that. Lest We Forget.

I had a Doctor appointment at 1015, just a follow-up on the other week's blood work. He gave me a new script for a pill to take in the A.M., but only when my weekly "Trulicity" self-injection isn't available at the Chemist. The injection is a weight-loss/maintenance drug (I lost just over 25kg with "Bydurien[?]") that it looks like all of the Doctors are now prescribing, hence the shortage.

I stopped off at the grocery store and bought/assembled a Christmas hamper for the less fortunate, at my Church's request. I'll drop it there on Sunday.

That's about it, take care all.

Good evening all. 66ºFfor the start, mostly cloudy, light breeze. wind light to brisk, Sky cleared to partly cloudy, and high temp was 79ºF. Men's meeting to start day, then bike ride, air penalty was .66 mile and was sweating hard when done. After lunch was nap then dinner. After dinner set up wife's new bird feeder with wifi camera on network. Only then did it occur to me this might work better with bird seed. :eek: baby steps.
Randy(Wag) hope you can get the compressor sorted out.
Drew hope your Costco trip went well.
Ron hope you got some energy conserved today. Quite the day yesterday. Good to hear fridge coils clean. Nice Jay pic.

Good morning, low temp 49 and high to 61°F. Wind S 5 mph. 30% chance of showers.
Lake Nipigon, Geraldton and Kapuskasing areas all are expecting about a foot of snow and high winds. I only mention this because that is part of my stomping grounds in the summer.

The trailer is loaded again for the dump. This time it is stuff out of this place. My daughter in law (RIP) was doing a lot of retail therapy in the last three years of life and that all needs to be cleared out. We have a used section at the dump where we can drop off stuff and for a small fee/donation (honour system) you can pick up lots of good stuff.

So it is a town and dump run today. Then reload the trailer for another load tomorrow, then back to the neighbours' she has another load to go. I will get at the heater in the tractor before the snow flies here, but exactly when, I am not sure.

Have a safe day all

good morning all
today should be a lovely sunny day up to 68
tomorrow a Nor'Easter with a gale warning at the coast. Guessing the remnants of Hurricane Nicole
That should bring down the rest of the leaves

haircut at lunchtime, not much else planned
might grease the mower this afternoon while it's warm out

have a great Thursday. If it's not great, make it so...

47 climbing to 68.

Got some house painting done, and did a thorough cleaning of my coffee roaster. Gave away most of my last 2 roasts to friends who came over to dinner last night. She brought an interesting pie made with pecans, chocolate chips, pretzels and orange zest. It was good to catch up with them. She's an artist, and had recently gone to Tuscany on a painting trip. Her husband is an interesting guy who can fix anything.

Got some things to do outside before the rain gets here. We need it, and may get an inch or so.
