Good morning!!!!

Good morning to all! Low of 28, only going up to near 45 today. Another cold front coming across tonight, dropping high temps into the 30's for tomorrow. No precipitation is expected.

Hearing about your electric bills makes me feel better.... our highest electric bill was $285 last month... basically due to the DIL running 2 small electric space heaters in her home office. The normal avg is only around $200 for the big house (thank goodness not my bill anymore), our new cottage is only about $60 / month for electric, $20 / month for LP gas, $40-80 / month for water, depending upon how much I water the landscape.... I guess we live pretty cheap...:)

I cannot believe how hard it is to payoff loans.... spending another few hours this morning checking to make sure payments went through....
After spending the time yesterday waiting and then speaking with a customer servive rep, getting the confirmation of payoff on our RV, this morning their site shows that we still owe $0.71... really? Where is this from... we used all of their numbers, confirmed by the rep.

Had to use "docusign" at another financial institution to 'confirm' that we wanted to pay off the loan..... DUH!.... that's why I sent you the full amount! ... Of course they asked if we wanted to take out another loan..... NOPE!

Drew, congratulations on being debt free! a real accomplishment! :thumbsup:
We still have a truck payment, thought about paying it off, but the interest rate is so low, it really wouldn't save that much.... may do it in 6 months or so.... rather keep the money in the bank....

Today is 'staple removal day'... WooHoo! I hope I am not disappointed and I am able to gain a little more range of motion without them and the wound dressing. The dressing is a long strip of rubber / silicone encompassing a strip of gauze type material. I wish I could get some of the adhesive that is used on it.... it hasn't peeled or loosened over the last 10 days.... I hope it won't be too much trouble to get it off! 34 staples need to come out!

As I type this, still waiting on hold for over an hour with another financial institution to fix yet another screwup on their part.... something so simple has become so difficult.... I guess they want to keep their customers in debt.

I hope everyone has an enjoyable day!

Had numerous skin cancers from 10 stitches to over 150. This one will wait on biopsy but by tone of doctor I would say another one

RNG they keep finding areas never the same

LS getting staples out a nice milestone sorry some lenders do not get it

Dang buppies, I thought you had that beat by now. Sorry. Prayers your way. Stay positive. I know it gets tiresome.

Buppies, I wish the best for you. I’ve been lucky and only had one on my arm that was malignant. Both ears and forehead have/ had precancerous lesions that are treated with chemotherapy cream.

I had to fill two low spots before they became sink holes. All this rain had washed dirt from around one of the septic lines going to the mound.

Looks like I’m going to have to move my topsoil pit over a bit, I’m finally into the clay layer. That soil is so rich and fine that I have to mix it with other dirt or it’ll get like cement when it dries out, but you could grow broomsticks in it and not need fertilizer. The closer to the creek the deeper it goes, it’s about 2’ deep 40’ from the creek.

Perseverance sees Jezero Crater rim in 36deg Mars panorama - YouTube

pretty amazing photography

A buddy of mine that works at NASA Ames posted this the other day...

Looks a lot like the places I'm fond of visiting on the motorcycles. I'd feel right at home on Mars, I guess!:eek:

Considering the great photos we can take with our phones these days, it's no wonder NASA is getting such spectacular shots.

Thanks for sharing the link, Drew.:thumbsup:

It was 59 today, 55 yesterday and 52 predicted tomorrow. We are predicted to be above 50 on 11 of the next 14 days. But I don’t trust much past 5 days forecast.
