Good morning!!!!

Checked out Lowes. Showed they had 24 in stock. Trip to the store got me 2 trips around many aisles with help of a floor person. Not to be found. Came home and ordered off Amazon. They will be here tomorrow. Stuff like this makes me want to stay home using my computer. Is that a sign of getting older? :confused3:

It is a sign of having no patience for stores that cannot update their inventories online.

I just ordered a spoke wrench for the tricycle.....Canadian Tire didn't have the right one, nor did Home Hardware. I have one coming from the U.S. All in it will be $26.oo, but if I can't get one from Canada, then it is to the 'states I go.

Do the newer NAVs on vehicles allow for passenger input while the vehicle is in motion or has the auto industry taken that privilege away because of driver safety like Toyota did on the Prius?

The Wife's old '12 Kia Sorento has a nav system that works while driving. On her new '18 Kia Niro, the nav system cannot be changed once the vehicle starts moving. I dislike that feature. Haven't yet figured out if there's a way to disable it.

Cough came back with a vengeance last night as soon as I laid down to sleep. Hardly coughed all day and thought I was over it. Had to get up and take some cough syrup. That took care of it in about 15 minutes so I could fall asleep.
.........................
Hope you beat that nasty cough soon...real soon.

Good morning! 50 ˚F, windy and sunny.

With all the travel this week we dropped the GPS, it cracked and no longer works so it looks like another must buy "Family" christmas gift will be under the tree. The iPhone does not have all the neat features that our Garmin nuvi 3450 had so we will be looking for another Garmin (plus sometime we would like a second opinion on which way is faster plus free lifetime map updates - they are adding hundreds of streets around here annually). Anyone bought a Garmin GPS lately and can recommend a model? neither of our vehicles have NAV, and even when the Prius had it we preferred the Garmin. The older NAVs for some vehicles can be confusing and don't allow for the navigator (wife) to do inputs while driving.

Do the newer NAVs on vehicles allow for passenger input while the vehicle is in motion or has the auto industry taken that privilege away because of driver safety like Toyota did on the Prius?

Worms, during the cold rain a few weeks ago about 1000 small earthworms crawled on the stone patio to get out of the cold water and died and dried. I got the blower out to blow them off but they did not budge. I got the broom out to scrub them off and they did not move. Next - power washer gets some use.

Interesting pic Drew. That reminds me of my Cousin who spelled the name of his client Mr. Luecke with his bulldozer - but you have to get up high to see it. I bet Buckeye can find it in just a few minutes. (Hint: it's in Bastrop county TX.)

Im on it, lol

36F and raining. Supposed to warm up overnight, but heavy rain and 40mph winds.
My porch box is out of pellets, so need to hand carry a bag from the barn. I can fit 14 bags in the box, but didnt get it refilled before the rain. Might still drive the tractor in the yard, i usually fork them onto the porch.

Exhausting drive home in the rain, dark.

I have garman 600 gps, bought in 2008. With smart phone, it has been unused in yrs.

Got the 61 paired to our phones with the traffic app and updated the maps. Will test it out for 2 weeks.
I did find the setting to disable the moving vehicle nav changes and I can use the speaker voice activators phone on my truck. Thanks Ron.

Good morning to all! Low of 28, going up to 53. Wind was relentless yesterday, finally subsided sometime last night.

Cough came back with a vengeance last night as soon as I laid down to sleep. Hardly coughed all day and thought I was over it. Had to get up and take some cough syrup. That took care of it in about 15 minutes so I could fall asleep.

Nice picture Drew. Are you thinking of trying something with the Massey?.....your's would probably be more permanent with ruts on the lawn however....

Had a set of candy cane lights that wouldn't turn on last night. Tried for a minute or two to see if it was just a connection, but it was way too windy and cold to stay and fiddle with them. That's on the agenda for today, then PT. hopefully it's an easy fix.

Everyone have a great day, prayers sent.

Welcome to our world. I suspect I picked up the bug at the hospital. For a couple of days my belly hurt like I had been on a hundred sit ups at a time regimen, just from coughing. Just about the time I think it痴 over I値l have a coughing fit.

Trying to figure out if thinking about the cough is an alert for cough attack coming, or not.
