Good morning!!!!

[Joel/ak]

I really Hate this time of year. Today was high 50's and want to get to property to start working.

The tractor is at my dad's place with the snowblower on it. He needs it more than us. The mini is here in the yard for when DOT plows in our property road so I can dig the berm out.

They are calling for good shovelable snow on Thursday through Friday.

The ups and downs are killing me

Good evening all. 50ºF for the start, rain, .9 inch in rain gauge, light breeze. Rain quit by 8AM, wind cranked up as sky cleared off, gusts over 50, and high temp was 68ºF. Water was over the road at low water crossing, but was not closed to traffic. Putter to start morning, then bike ride, roads still are the wet side, As wind increase roads dry and winds are harder to deal with. Lunch after ride then nap, the wife and I make shrimp newburg together, that was good. Short session to adjust rear derailleur on Peugeot, then sit with wife.

First cup of coffee has been poured. 49° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 53° with cloudy skies and high wind warnings. It was a great winter day out side yesterday. A new house is being built down the road from me by neighbors son. While I had drone out took some drone pictures for him. Going to be a nice house. Other than fly drone that was my whole day. Grocery shopping today.
Crows take off from feeders whenever they see any motion in kitchen window. I get pictures of them in the trees.

Everyone stay safe and well.

Good Morning All.

If I told you what I really expect of politicians my post would be unceremoniously and expeditiously removed…

Good morning to all! Low of 25° and snow as forecasted. Got about 3", but the wind decided it would be better piled up in areas and just dusting other areas. High today only to be mid 30's. More snow tonight, supposed to be a bigger storm. Winds today could have gusts 45-55 mph.

I thick the crud has finally given up. Only a couple coughs, congestion almost gone. Only took 9 days to get over it. The biggest issue is that I may have transferred it to the wifey.....

Going to be an inside day for sure! Not sure what rabbit hole I'll go down.

Yesterday's rabbit hole adventure found some interesting changes coming to FCA (Chrysler) engines. The 'talk' is the 3.6 L, the 5.7 L, and the 3.0 diesel are / will be discontinued. The replacement will be a straight 6, single or dual turbo. No real specs out on it yet, aside from the estimated HP ratings.

Still no word from the knee referral. Last week, I did get confirmation that the insurance approved the 2nd opinion. The orthopedic surgeons office referred it to a totally different organization, the University's orthopedic center. I may try and call them today..... I was assured that the paperwork was sent to them last Thursday.

Hope everyone has a great day!

You’re getting rid of crud, I catch crud.

Thus, balance is restored to the universe…

Good morning to all. High today near 80, then another front with 20-25 drop. Have to work on taxes if I can squeeze that in.  Will try to get to the American Legion coffee meeting this morning.

Needing an "industrial" quality flood light (2 bulb). Want one with a motion sensor to mount on the outside of my metal shop. Want quality and weather "proof". The models I have so far seen are "weather resistant" and many have "plastic housings", some the bulbs are not replaceable! My preference would be a "normal floodlight bulb that I can find when replacement is needed" not a square LED type that I have to order somewhere. This unit will be in the Texas sun all day. NOTHING plastic lasts here for long. Any suggestions where to buy?

All Take Care, wishing you a great day.

Good Morning!

God has given us another chance to get it right (or at least not screw up too badly).

Thank you all for well wishes! Luckily it is just a good Ol’ fashioned head cold. Lots of supplements and other unmentionables and DayQuil/NyQuil and it is very manageable. A throwback to “normal times” if you will. . . Oddly I caught this thing BEFORE my annual checkup. Usually things like this occur AFTER the trip to the doc. . .

53F going to mid-60’s, but chance of precip. Hopefully it does not interfere with taking the dog for her excursion at the woodlot - she is getting cabin fever!

strange goings-on in work, two long-time managers are no longer employed there. One definitely fired, don’t know if the other one was fired or resigned in protest over firing of the other one. All I can say is that having the CD players this year is working out really well - plausible deniability is a wonderful thing!

I hope everyone has a wonderful happy healthy blessed day!
