Good morning, all! Cold and cloudy here, high around 45 later today.

28 this morning and headed to 44 today. Snow moving in tomorrow. Less than an inch.

Yesterday was not productive but I can hope for today. May end up at friends house. He needs a pump starter box wired up. His 5hp pump has been down for a couple of weeks and he's wanting chickens off of county water. He has more birds than I do and is in the process of adding more barns.

Larro good to see you back. How did the redesign of the rocket stove turn out?

much chillier 29 going up to 50 today, and I have absolutely nothing planned. Still having leg cramp problems so going to stay off my feet today and see if that helps.

Had a nice dinner out last night, on the way picked up some to go seafood dinners and took them to 90 year old lady in local nursing home, who was very excited to get some "real food". The twenty bucks spent on those two catfish dinners was worth a billion dollars of gratitude and appreciation, talk about ROI...trying to do this once a week while she is in there. Not sure she is coming out either, older step sister of my friend. Who all day long is kept company in that nursing home by her 65 year old son who is severely disabled with MS. When we brought that food in, two big wide smiles greeted us. There but for the grace of God go us...

What a nice thing to do.

Farmer, that weather sounds like a recipe for mud.
I bet you have a big mudroom in your house.
Or risk the eternal scold:
don't you bring that dirty thing in my house!

Most of my work shoes are in the garage, all mucked up.

I wonder if we could reach out to the owner and see if an email could be sent to Ed's personal email
expressing our concern for him. Not sure we would like what we find out but sure want to stay positive.
Well, somehow, Ed if you are reading this, be well.

64°F and no rain since midnight.

Our little addition is adjusting well. A quiet night, the boxers and he getting along, big appetite this morning, playful and inquisitive.

Be safe
Have great day

Yeah that forecast just spells mud. But that's all we've had all winter. Mud. Actually no mud room in this DW. I keep my boots rinsed off outside. Now when we build a house it will have a separate entrance and shower just for me. .

Lots to catch up on.
Sodamo got a new cat.
Catfever got a new bad boy sled.
Eric's supposed freind took his valuable steam engine.
Drew spread some happiness.
Larro has been sighted again.

Too much more to list.

Insurance adjuster is going to help us replace the roof. Thank God. I want to upgrade to metal. Asking for advice from you wisemen. Galvalume has 20 year warranty but painted has 40 year. Shiny would look best but shine wears off after a few years. White would be best choice to lower attic temp, but forrest green would look better. I plan to blow in more insulation while some of the deck is off. Anyone have a dark colored metal roof in a hot climate? Would that be stupid? Would green last as long as white?

Have a freind visiting for the weekend.

Y'all have a blessed day.
