RNG be safe, all the stuff won’t amount to to a pittance when we are gone.
Mom has been there for 15 months now and will be 96 in April. She stayed with us for 3 1/2 years before that. We were getting our world back to the new normal after she went to the care facility, three months later Lynn died.
So now I have an altogether different new normal.
Rain and mild today before turning cold for the weekend. God bless.

29 and going to 34. Wind NNE 13 mph. Snow in the forecast. Environment Canada says 10-20 cm (4 to 8") None yet.
The Weather Channel is still saying 1-3" for Friday day, Friday night and Saturday day. YES! I get to wear my new Mukluks!

RNG, as long as your butt is safe the rest is just 'stuff'.

As far as scammers go, most of the time I let the call go to voice mail and then delete the message. Every so often I will call them back to hear their pitch. I NEVER give them any information, no name, no SSN, no address. They have all that because they called me, I tell them. It usually goes down hill from there. They threaten me with jail, I say "Yeaaaaaahhhh! Free room and board and no bills! Bring it on, baby" and then hang up.
I hardly ever answer 'private number' calls, nor do I answer 'restricted number' calls. They can both go to voice mail and I will pick it up from there, maybe.

I bought me a new Sawzall, couch and diesel pump yesterday.

Have a good day all

Ron, that sure is pretty . . . as long as it's up there instead of down here.:laughing:

Good morning to all! Low of 25 this morning, going up to 46, spotty fog in the low areas. Supposed to get a little warmer for the weekend, highs of around 55. Then a drop to a high of only 30 on Mondaywith a chance of snow.

RNG, glad you are safe, hope the fire keeps its distance from your place. Unbelievable amount of damage that occurred so quickly. I'm sure the pictures we see on the news doesn't reflect the true devastation. God bless you, stay safe.

Ron, beautiful picture....

Everyone have a great weekend, prayers sent.

35° and rain this morning, going up to 40° today. Supposed to drop to 20° or maybe even in the teens tonight. Will be our first hard freeze. Some areas just to our north got some snow this morning. One coworker from Jerseyville IL said she had almost an inch.

Glad you're safe, RNG. Hope your property can dodge the bullet as well.

Got a few hours yesterday afternoon on the storage shed. Just a bit more and all done (except for power washing the siding and painting (used metal that needs cleaning)). Temps dropped fast last night, 22F when I went to bed.

Still with friends in Chico, looks like the firesafe zone at the house got tested last night, but won't know if it survived until they lift the evac orders...

Fingers crossed...
