Good (Friday) morning. Overnight Low of 13C and it's presently just 18.2C, overcast with no predicted rain & calm.

I got off my backside yesterday arvo to do that '5 minute job' of trimming a few tree branches. 3 hours later... and that was just cutting them off, it'll probably take me a couple of arvos to collect/dispose of them. It's amazing how many more branches make their presence known when you have a lopper or pole saw in your hand.

So, that'll be today's task; to start gathering up the branches.

That's about it, take care all.

We've got a neighbour that moved up here from Montreal two years ago. She was commenting on how cold it was this morning, in the -5°F range. I told her that we've had it colder and she said "spoken like a true northerner". -5 isn't all that cold, not when I've personally seen -50°F here and colder still in Alberta in the late 70s.
All I did today was conserve energy. Tomorrow will go to the dump and town. I missed the 80 million dollar draw, one person in Ontario won it but it wasn't me. I didn't get my ticket until Wednesday, the draw was on Tuesday.
There will be another draw on Friday but not for 80 million, only 46 million dollars. That is still enough for me to buy a new tractor.

Paul , a new welder, lots of dials very nice.

Thats actually the old welder that I gave away. The new one is similar, same brand, but more features and higher capacity, 325amp, up from 225.
The 225 was a great machine, i upgraded more out of want than need, and a black friday deal put me over the edge.

Good evening all. 41ºF for the start, clear sky, light breeze. Light wind, sky became overcast in afternoon, and high temp was 69ºF. Made coffee to start day, office work, mate Creme of Wheat/ Malt-o-Meal mix for breakfast, watched recorded news, put new leaf vac together, and used it . Worked very well. Bike ride 40 miles averaged 15 mph. Got dishes cleaned up and pasta cooked foe Wednesday's spaghetti sauce.
