Up at 1 again. Windy out.

 

[Looking4new]

Good morning, the low is 6 and going to a high of 16°F. Wind NW 14 gusting to 22 mph. 30% chance of flurries. There is the odd flake in the air right now.

BEF, I too am up too early. Around 6 or so I will go back to bed for a couple of hours.

I don't normally plow until there is about 3+ inches on the railing of my deck. We are not quite there yet, but getting close.

I've got a Charles Bronson/James Coburn movie cued up on the tube that I don't think I've seen before. I think I will watch that this A.M.

Have a safe day all

Coffee is brewing. 21° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 27° with chance of light snow. Got mine and neighbors driveways cleared of snow. Clean my walkways. All the time it was raining and snowing. Good thing I was wearing waterproof cloths. Later in the day Amazon driver got her truck stuck in a ditch. Got her pulled out with tractor. Wonder if that will get me 50% off on purchases next year. Best is she was very grateful.
Under the weather with stomach pains again today. Already have a Dr appointment later this afternoon. Grocery shopping in the morning.

Everyone stay well and safe.

Good Morning All.

good morning all
35 out now and slowly going down all day
sipping half a cup of black coffee, all I'm allowed this morning.
Have to drink the second half of barium at 6:30am and then head off to hospital.
hard to get all that thick stuff down but sure better than colo prep.

peter, thanks for info on barium
I get a lot of xrays and scans every year, have for decades

Ron, sounds like you need a doc and some relief. Hope stomach is better quickly.

after CT scan going to get some breakfast and then run car through car wash in doylestown.
Left side of car speckled with tree sap, did not come off in my washing. Hoping brushes of car wash
will work better; otherwise I need to get it detailed again. And sure not parking near that junk, sappy tree any more.
I can scrape each tiny dot off with my finger nail but...lots of them. Was thinking of using a no scratch scrubby on car but
sure don't want to mess up my nice paint job.

hope you all have a great day

Bill, I like your cat scan much much better.

quite a day in London yesterday
1,872 tractors driven into downtown in a massive farm protest
that would have been something to see

Good Tractor Morning Ken,
Nice find, if you come across one with a 30 amp supply let me know

 

[wngsprd]

36 going to 41. Happy International Mountain Day, whatever that is. I'd go up to Hawksbill to celebrate, but 2F wind chill changed my mine.

Yesterday's warmth melted 99% of our snow. More is promised tomorrow and Sunday.

Kyle, hope your son can get well soon...and you, too...I've never used the products you mentioned for colds, so no help here, although you can tell your wife I voted for you. Congrats to your son for the MVP.

Ron, hope you get better, too. Your neighbors need you.

We made a Costco run yesterday...I needed to get my flu shot, and we filled a cart. Gas was down another 6 cents to $2.46, not as good as your price, Mostly, but first time I've seen below 2.50 in a long time. We had lunch at Shake Shack...first time we've been to one...and then on to a regular grocery store to pick up some things Costco doesn't carry.

When we got home we walked Della over to pick out our Christmas tree...I'll cut it today...a little better than a Charlie Brown since a buck liked one side of it. We'll put that side against the wall.

Local weatherman just said that every day in December so far has been below average temps, and it's the 5th coldest start to December on record. That's why my firewood is disappearing so fast. Time to sharpen the saw.

Good Tractor Morning Ron,

Got her pulled out with tractor. Wonder if that will get me 50% off on purchases next year

Ron, I wish you all the Luck on that one
