Good morning!!!!

[buckeyefarmer]

My pin came part way out. The bolt that held in in was missing. Think I broke the bolt off on a stump then the pin slid. Guess a fellow got keep an eye on this. This happened after about 20 hours of use. Man they gotta be able to come up with something better than that.

I couldnt find the post, but it made me check mine.

heres where the bolt goes, hole still lined up.

5F, windchill -8 ... they're saying the overnight low will be -1F ... but the high tomorrow will only be 6F ...

Got the hole cut in the wall for the door into the closet. Of course, I did manage to catch the wiring with the Sawzall ...

Fortunately, it wasn't the feed but for a single wall outlet. There's a suspended ceiling on the wall that that outlet is on and the top of the framing may be open so I should be able to so I should be able to fish a wire down to the outlet from above.

Also got the closet where the utility tub will be going all cleaned out.

Tomorrow I'll frame it in and hang the door.

In other news: Petco started a Dollar-a-Gallon tank sale back on the day after Christmas ... we live in very dangerous times ... :laughing:

Doctor called me tonight, says he talked to other doctors, who recommend letting things heal another month, dont mess with it, and see how things are then. No more surgeries for the time being, subject to change in a month.

Gotta love a Dr smart enough to get opinion of others.

Great news Buckeyefarmer

Good news!

I like the plan, don't think it can hurt to wait longer. The 2 procedures he did to get xrays and check it might have actually made it a little worse, but it was the only way to check.

Good evening all. 24F this morning, partly cloudy, light east wind. Wind stayed down, sky cleared and high temp was 46F.

Got home from errands and lunch went for ride, cleaned stove and fire the stove up.

Fun night, Rx delivery was late, came at 10:45, got to bed at 11:00. Smoke alarm went off at 1:15, wife is now achy and just feels bad, no temp. I guess I will be up for a while, can't sleep. Have a good night. Ed

11 degrees right now....heat wave is over since today's "high" will be in the low to mid single digits (report says 4 degrees). A frigid weekend ahead of us, unfortunately...Saturday's high is predicted to be -5 degrees

Glad it's the end of the work week!

 

[mpham]

Same here. 12 dropping to 5. Lows below zero this weekend. I'm about to head out for the third snow cleanup. Drifts are higher than the tractor.

No snow here, it's raining and the ground is already saturated.

Not good conditions for getting the tractor out, but thats irrelevant today as I've agreed to go on a shopping trip with my wife for house furnishings. No tractor parts, fishing tackle, gun or tool shops. Not normally my idea of a fun day, however after what some of you have gone through, I will just be thankful to have her by my side and try not to squirm too much when I see the price tags.

Good morning all, 8 this morning going to 19 and windy. Won't get much done today, been up most of the night, couldn't sleep after everything last night. You'll be careful digging out, don't do to much at one time.

Praying for you all. Ed

Got up couple hours earlier plow driveway clean steps and path,by the feel and sounds wind I'll be doing it again after work.

Enjoy the day all.
