Good morning!!!!

[ronjhall]

Coffee is brewing. 35° with partly cloudy skies this mornings. Heading to 44° with rain most of the day. Trip to Menards got me the wood I wanted. Spent time in wood shop coming up with a plan to make boards that will fill gap under pole barn doors. There is a 3" gap in places. Because concrete apron has dropped over the years. Will cut the 12' pieces today.
Staying close to home.

Everyone stay safe and well.

Good Morning All.

good morning all
Ron stop sending that cold weather over here....
43 degrees in Ronks PA outside of Lancaster, going up to mid
50's. Quite the drop from last few days, heat on in the rv.
But I slept very well.

going to have a quiet breakfast, watch the news after the elections.
Looks like the book banners got defeated in local elections
And Ohio now has legal marijuana.
Quick RS, stop planting all those strawberries, you've got something better to grow!

feet are cold, this rv insulation leaves something to be desired...
time to put my shoes on

About a two hour drive from here to Buckeye's home, should be nice.
I'll leave when it gets light enough out, no sense driving in the dark.
I'm sure they have deer here too. ?

49 outside this AM, heading to mid 60's.

Household chores on the agenda today. Maybe screw in the final metal panels for the Milk House. Sealed the concrete floor the last two days. Used some cheap Behr sealant. Looks to be really nice. Made the concrete and all the patches really pop. May get to walk in there today around noon.

Need to collect firewood and waiting on a call back for the pool closing. Just a little behind on both.

Have a great day all. Be safe. Those ailing, positive thoughts your way. Safe travels for those on the move.

60 high of 82 today no progress on fires still very dry. Lots of bleeding last night not sure what’s up with that. When I get up it bleeds. Another doctor’s appointment today. I’m going to owe more than I have.

Safe travels Drew prayers for all scaredy and our Country

Good morning, the low is 22 and going to a high of 32°F. Wind N 8 mph. 40% chance of flurries.

I was actually up at 5, but kicked the wood stove back into gear and caught up on the posts here. The oil furnace keeps the house at 72 and with the wood heat we keep it at 75+. If the temperature in the house gets up around 80, then the clothes start coming off.
I have 2 quilted flannel shirts coming, one XL and one XXL. One for junior and one for me. The ones we have already are about 10 years old and pretty threadbare.

I think that if I was to name today, it would be youtube day, because that is exactly what I will be doing right after I post this.

Have a safe day all

Buppies, hope they get bleeding under control.

I read that consumer spending has not slowed down, and the amount of consumer debt on credit cards has now topped 1 trillion dollars.
Credit card debt is the debt of last resort, for the seven years in my last financial planning career, where I served as a financial doctor to mostly Quaker families, a core part of my advice was avoiding/paying off credit card debt.

Thankfully a fairly frugal audience, but not without challenges. Kids with addictions, father buying penny stocks since he thought he could outguess the market, Moms spending too much time and money on online shopping, the tv kind. I had to show them where their money was going. And why they needed to save more.

if you can't pay off your credit card balance every month, you are usually paying a ton of interest. That interest is a weight on your back that keeps you from saving more. Most of us realize this but human nature is what it is.

I use my credit card as much as I can since I get 2 percent back.
It's a great tool as long as you control it, and not the other way around.

I'd like to be sitting next to Bill's woodstove right now.
I can feel the heat.

46 going to 64.

Buppies, sure hope you can get your bleeding under control. The Quaker Run fire spread into Shenandoah NP and now is over 2,800 acres...The Governor declared a state of emergency for both fires.

If any deserve BIG break from medical issues you certainly do Buppies.
