63°F and 2.89 inches rain. Yup more wet

Off to vet this morning to drop off Simba the cat. Seems to be a bit off, maybe UTI?

Also need take my CO2 tank for beer cooler to get decertified.

Then it will likely be another trip back to town to pick up Simba. Most a particularly efficient day

Prayer for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Good Morning Guys,
Ct, 39 going to 46 maybe ! Cold and damp with light rain now, supposed to let up early afternoon and then another round tonite !

Kyle, great news on son !

Frits, glad son is in the hospital! With proper care !

Don, sounds like cruise was very good, enjoy !

Bill, if I don’t have enough fuel on the truck to fill the tank, I write TRO on the delivery ticket ! Truck Ran Out !

Lou, by law we are not supposed to deliver to anyone without a proper functioning vent alarm aka whistle ! We do occasionally bend the rules, but I end up putting my ear to the vent pipe, and soon as you hear the gurgle, **** it down ! Or bad things will happen ! 😉

PopG, beautiful work on the speakers !

Hope all have a good day ! 🙏

My suppliers usually work good with me also. I'm using the same ones that the farm uses usually and that is 1000 to 1500 gallons or more each time and then I usually take a 1000 gallons at a time, this year it was only 600 gallons of #2 and 100 gallons of #1. But one supplier has said that they will not fill my elevated tank because it requires climbing a ladder. So I'll use my portable 300 gallon to top that off when needed.

Went in town for a lunch date with my wife. Tried out a place she is going to get to cater a church event. They also serve breakfast and lunch and have a few tables. I had a burgerlicious it's a burger topped with cheesesteak, and then onion tomato and lettuce. Came with chips, and I also had a chili. Not a cheap date, but it sure was delicious.

Good Morning!!!! 61F @ 11:00AM. Sunshine and a few afternoon clouds. High 63F. Winds WNW at 10 to 15 mph.

Got the liquor cabinet mounts reinforced and all the boxes for it unloaded. Started in mounting a shelf in the garage, but it needed to be cut down, so I'll finish that today. Then repair a couple of other cabinets, and get those mounted, too.

Somewhere in there I have to get to the grocery store, pick up an order at Lowes, and drop off my ballot. So much for Tuesday...

Called the supplier and he is sending someone to check the gauge against the volume in the tank. I have had problems with these guys before. We will see.

40 years ago my company delivered bunker oil to apartment buildings. The senior driver was dumping a load 6,000 gallons at one call and John Q Citizen walked up to him and asked how long he would be. The driver answered that he was almost done, about another ten minutes. The citizen says that was good because he didn't think the basement would hold much more. Seems that the fill pipe he was using had been disconnected from the tank and nobody had decommissioned the pipe. That was a big cleanup, but not our guys' problem. He was just doing what the fuel company told him.

When I moved my tank out of the basement the first thing I did was pull the pipes and cement the holes over.

You have to walk right past my 200 gal tank to get to the back of the house and there is no evidence of a fill hole ever being there.

This is a small town and the competition is with propane, so the more customers they have the better for them. Propane and natural gas in town, propane and furnace oil in the outskirts. The only propane I will EVER have on my property is 2 20lb BBQ tanks.

I had a set of concrete blocks for a two step up to the oil tank, but they get in the way when I clear the snow away so I took them out and stationed a FEATHER LITE fiberglass ladder near the tank. In 12 years of using this set up this driver is the ONLY one that has shorted me on the fuel.

I had a dead pine blow partially over, onto another tree. So, JD to the rescue. Pulled it out and pushed onto the burn pad.

Was 57F and clear yesterday @ 21:00, heading down to 51F overnight. Very beautiful here, high hit 72F.

Day before yesterday got the hopper and 1 suet feeder refilled, plus cracked corn, peanuts, and cheap bird seed scattered for the ground feeders.

Some more clean up and organizing done in the garage.

Woman's Hibiscus repotted, still need to add some slow-release fertilizer.

New shower pan ordered.

Also placed an order for another bag of cheap bird seed, sunflower hearts, and safflower seeds. That order is now ready to pick up.

Plus ordered another 20 pak of suet from Amazon which came in earlier today.

Yesterday got some more cardboard from out in the garage hauled up to the shop, cleared firewood off pallet and moved pallet outside, got firewood stowed under table, making room for old washer.

Did some vacuuming under old 'frig, still a ways to go.

Got meds doled out for this coming week.

Got Menards rebates ready to put in the mail.

Cleaned up some of the debris in the master bedroom bath and vacuumed the area.

Currently it is 60F and partly cloudy @ 16:00, just had a thunderstorm roll through a bit ago ... dropped 1.43" of rain, two day total around 2" ... so we're very well watered at this point ... (y)

Rain will probably start again around 19:00.

Woman was planning to go to the grocery store earlier but the thunderstorm put the kibosh on that.

She reported seeing the first red-winged blackbird of the season a bit ago.

Ordered a little endoscope off Amazon which should be here tomorrow. It's only 16.5' long but was less than $30 ... should come in handy for a few things.

Menards sent notification that the new utility tub for the laundry room has come in and should be ready for pick up.

May head down there later and pick it and the bird food order up.

Will find some trouble to get into in the meantime.

Hope everyone is having a decent Tuesday ... (y)
