Good Morning
21° this morning. Sunny, and a high of 36 forecast. A lot like yesterday.
Speaking of yesterday, it was spent moving stuff from the closets in the house to the old folks home, I found some treasure, but mostly it was realizing that I’d never wear or touch the item at hand in the future and it needed to move on.
I made a batch of sausage stuffing to take to my daughter’s for dinner, and a few other kitchen tasks,like knife sharpening while I was at it.
I needed something to hang a small ring on a closet rod, and went off to TSC to see what they had. Basically struck out, so came home and put the Diacro bender to work.
Worked great, but reminded me that when I moved the bender, I never anchored it to the shop floor, it’s a good thing it was only 5/16” rod. So I guess today I’ll be drilling the concrete and setting anchors.
Looks like a Costco run is in the near future as well. I also need to continue to make progress on moving my stuff out of the house. I’m thinking I should also stockpile some firewood in the garage, as the woodshed is probably 1/4 mile away, and not accessible by carryall in the snow or mud. I didn’t have a fireplace or wood stove in the house, I was all about efficiency when I build it. So the woodshed is at my son’s (the original farmhouse) as he has a fireplace and outdoor fire pit. All the wood that we would harvest got stacked down there. There is plenty of it, dry and seasoned, just not conveniently located for me.
I’m thinking about you, Ted and Dona and hoping for a good outcome.
