Coffee is brewing. 28° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 33° cloudy skies. Visit to financial guy went well. One more visit next month and all should be good for a long time. Made it to Rural King for bird seed 200 lbs should make it until I stop feeding in May. Opened up box of parts for Nightstand. Over 50 different pieces to assemble it. That does not include all the screws and other fittings. First sentence in instruction says it will take 2 people to assemble. Hope Sassy will help. Going to get started on it today.
After all the squirrel shenanigans. Need to stop for a drink.

Hope PJ will get some free time to post this weekend.

Have fun at the beach? Buppies and wife.

good morning all
37 going up to 43 in sun and clouds
all morning is devoted to a school board meeting, pretty sure the topic is long range planning. Not too bad, three hours, they serve us lunch and then we go home.

seems very strange to get to middle of January and have not used snowblower. Will likely jinx myself saying that.

David, nice job on the addition. You really have done amazing things with your home. And you did it "your way".

electric bill really shot up, between hot tub and portable electric heaters, understand why, tradeoff to using more 4.69 fuel oil.
I never check the rate, wonder if PECO has raised it.

hope you all have a great weekend.

They are, and I planned to ... assuming I can get them out ... ;)

Removed the one on the cold water end a bit ago, the ones for the diverter and hot water are being a little more stubborn ... so I'm letting them soak in some Blaster after having heated the portion of the valve body they are in several times with the MAPP torch.

That is what is good about that tool - if the seats won’t come out, you can reface them. Just cut them enough to where you have a continuous shiny ring without any interruptions and you can get several years out of it before grinding it again. The key is to do two turns and inspect, two turns and inspect, and take off just enough…

Took the dog up the mountain again yesterday, she got two days in a row, so we can leave her home today and not have her be overly upset that we aren’t taking her today. Rain coming in tomorrow so today is the only day to chainsaw. I will also keep Mrs busy while I set everything up by letting her shovel out some obstructions in one of the drainage ditches that are keeping part of the road in a little too damp - ain’t I a nice guy?😁🤣
