Good evening all. 17F for the start, partly cloudy, light breeze. Light to moderate wind, sky became overcast, and high temp was 43F. restoked the insert the insert after cleaning out most of the ash. stayed too cold and got too windy for bike ride on the road, so got 15 miles on indoor trainer. Garage was 52F, and was dripping sweat after 30 minutes Do miss the wind cooling on regular bike . No nap today, startup issues on trainer delayed start of ride and it ended to late to nap . Trip to town for dinner and groceries finished the day.

Mostly, do you count indoor training miles to yearly total?

Good morning, low temp is -20°F (colder than a well diggers butt) and the high is going to be 19 on the plus side. Warm enough to snow. Wind calm. Forecast says snow today, tonight and tomorrow.

The kitten that goes outside every day, went out yesterday morning and 5 minutes later was back inside. His brother didn't go out at all. They are 14 months old, but in this house with three senior cats, they are still kittens.
I'm not sure yet, but I think in March I will get their knackers chopped off. I cringe at the though, but it is necessary.

Other than the snow, I will be conserving energy until Monday at noon when I take the DIL to the hospital for the PIC line.
I told Junior back in September to squirrel away some money each month to pay for his wifes' funeral. He didn't.
You should have seen the look on his face when I told him how much the funeral home wanted up front.
He thinks that the pension plan (Canada Pension Plan) that he and her never paid into will pay for the funeral. Not likely. I will be very surprised if CPP comes across.

Enough of that.

Have a safe day all

L4N you are up ear;y this morning

Mostly I found two more trees down yesterday for a total of 3

14 this morning might go lower as sun comes up

Prayers for all

Drinking first cup of hot coffee. -2° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 30° with partly cloudy skies. Got paperwork done yesterday and got back in house where it was warm. Going to be a conserve energy day today.

David, I stopped at Kawasaki dealer on way home. It 3 miles from my house. Checked out the Mule Pro MX model. I like the wider seat and cargo box than my SX. But the cargo box is still very short. Did not take it for a ride. It was to cold for no windshield ride.

Everyone stay healthy and safe.

Good Morning All.

Buppies, I went to bed at 10 and one of the cats woke me up at 2 and my bladder told me that the bed was going to get VERY wet if I didn't get up at 3 A.M. , so I got up and stayed up.

 

[Buppies]

L4N I just hate that almost guaranteed to happen once a night. Sometimes you go back to sleep sometimes not

good morning all
dripping sweat
Mostly, not for most of us, it's mighty cold out, 17 here and very cold for coming week.
Well....it's January.
Ron, stay warm, you and Bill are even colder than the rest of us.

having problems with my neck. It was fused with a titanium rod 12 years ago and has always hurt but two days now
of changing from heat to cold packs haven't helped. Stabbing pains in neck, eyes go wide and you just sit there thinking please
go away....just part of my personal version of falling apart. And I have no idea why it started to hurt two days ago.
Guess it's time for an epidural, takes forever to get scheduled. I can't get the pain to go away and am trying like crazy to not take
any pain meds. I did up my celebrex and steroids, my only non narcotic solution.

I had hoped to have a co-Clerk to help me with guiding our Quaker Meeting, but no one has volunteered.
So it looks like this is all on my shoulders for awhile. I'm honored, but also a little overwhelmed. So many things became dysfunctional
during Covid, now trying to start up programs again and clearly the health realities out there are not good. Need to get past omicron as fast as we can.

at least the new snow plow guy showed up on time and did a nice job plowing our snow yesterday.

A nice sunny Saturday here.
