We now have clear, sunny skies and it's warmed up to 20 degrees. We've got some cabbage cooking, and got the tomatoes and onion sliced already, just have to make the cornbread, and get the corn, blackeyed peas, and beets on the stove, and we'll celebrate the New Year the way I like to celebrate.:laughing:

1 this morning and headed to 16 today. Currently 12. Tonight colder.

Ended the year with several breakdowns. Shut tractor off last night and looked at phone. Midnight. Happy new year . Wife and kids already in bed. Hopefully today goes better.

Still have to put out hay. And need to fix fence in last pasture. But may wait till tomorrow when it warms up a little.

Hope everyone has a safe and Happy New Year.

Just kicking back today, Ears are stopped up and kinda tired. Will be fine.

Don, praying for your wife, Just went on Amazon to change a rating. We had gotten a DVD that had the wrong music on it. Had the right case and name printed on the dvd. We had given a 1 star and we were going to change it because they got us the correct DVD. However the review was gone, I guess we can't trust Amazons ratings ether.

Have a great day. Ed

Wondering how those crab legs turned out Ron???

Crab legs were excellent. Wife went to Kroger’s Friday and picked 2 large legs.

Don, why no WBS?

The news scroll said that 3 people have died in Travis county so far due to the flu.

No WBS for a few days because the smell of the wood make's her feel "stuffy". ??

Had a call from SIL in Harris county, she works for a HISD school and they had to send 100 kids homes 3 days in a row (300). because they were sick with the flu. They were going to shut the school down but they had just one more day before the holidays.
On the other side of Harris County my other SIL in reported that her son and many in school also had the flu, They missed Christmas with us this year.

When the kids go back to school next week I would expect many more sick and possible school closures.

Wife is OK just a lingering cough but no fever for 2 days. With TamiFlu I only had 2 days of fever and am at the same stage she is now. 90% good to go, just using caution. We both had the 9% effective flu shot, and are on the 91% ineffective list.

(I got the 91% from a study released in February (2014) that found that the flu shot was only 9 percent effective in protecting seniors against the 2012-2013 season’s most virulent influenza bug)

I'm skipping it next year because it is so ineffective and of the
"Mercury which overstimulates the brain for several years, says Dr. Blaylock, and that activation is the cause of Alzheimer’s and other degenerative diseases. One study found that those who get the vaccine for three to five years increase their risk of Alzheimer’s disease 10-fold."

I would think Amazon would be more honest than Costco when eliminating reviews. I can see why Costco eliminated my review because of lawsuits. But they could have at least investigated the defective device and thanked me for reporting it.


Temp is at 33˚ now and no frost on the heat pump. Two more cold nights, or with this group should I say warm nights above 0˚?

 

[Thomas]

Finally reach -0F for high today but another -20F plus cold night tonight.

Thought today was going to be kick back day until phone rang it was work...7:30 - 2pm facing old man winter bite,now I am kicking back soaking in nice warm wood heat.
