Good morning!!!!

[toppop52]

Man, I really hate that. I have to do that about once a month along our road, too. Wish I could find out if it's someone local or not. I'd pick it all up and dump it on their front lawn. Where we are, you almost have to be going there to be there, so I suspect it's either locals or visitors of locals. It's also possible that it's just teenagers passing through while out for a ride, as it does seem worse on weekends.

My old house was on a corner, the side road went to a high school, last day of school looked like a paper drop!
Where I am there’s only 200’ of frontage but I get my share of fast food and beer bottles, especially on weekends.

I'm not sure that I would say important enough, so much as sorry they got you.
I don't have to worry about street view I don't believe they will ever get mine and If they do all they will see is about 50 feet of driveway and trees :laughing:
Well I went and looked at goggle maps they did go by my road but not down it,

And that's a good looking road!
The Google car probably did not want to get dusty or muddy on mine.

Jbrumberg my wife sounded like a kitten purring when she breathed - that can't be good. But we are finished with the "thing" and feeling great again after 3 weak weeks.

Good morning to all! Cold here this morning, low of 6*, going up to 46. All the snow is already gone! Didn't even get a chance to use the tractor... Wind blew most of it away! Back in a dry spell again... Nothing predicted for the next 7 days. At least it will be warmer up into the 50's.

Got a chance to build a small workbench in the shop yesterday. Just before the little voice inside said 'don't pull on that', my hand slipped across the edge of a 2x4, a 1/8" wide sliver kerfed out a channel across my ring finger and put the point into my middle finger. Big a*^ splinter now embedded. Tried digging it out, real deep, can't get to it...oh well... Pain for a few days. Used crazy glue on the kerf on the other finger, feels pretty good now.

Bird, sorry for your furry friend loss.. It always hurts.
Riptides, hang in there! Just another hurdle to get over. Take care of your Lady and stay ahead of the "thing".
BEH, glad to hear your out and about and getting back to work but saddened to hear of your discomfort. Hang in there... You've got 'a few steps forward'
For everyone needing prayers.. Sent out some this morning...
Oh, and happy birthday to Mrs Buppies...
Finally got caught up on the forum... Too much stuff to remember...

Don- I am happy to read that you and your wife recovered. It's never a good thing to start hearing one's lungs laboring. It was a 5 week event for our "Thing." Once a respiratoryinfection gets down to the bronchial tubes I still break out my finger oximeter to monitor my O2 levels.

It finally got to 33F here and the fog is thinning. I may break out the YakTraxｮ slipover ice cleats and check what's happening outside.

37F with rain and 22 mph wind. Temp is dropping and will continue to do so ... could have snow by midnight. Calling for sunny skies and a high of 50F by Friday though.

Had heavy rain with lots of lightning and thunder last night ... almost all of the snow is gone at this point.

Have to run up and grab the garbage can off the road and bring it back down to the house ... after that hard to say, no shortage of things to do though ... might make some beef stew.

Ran into the Depot and exchanged the $7 bulbs that would not work with my lights for the $15 ones that I hope will. Hope to work on them this afternoon. Very windy here but nice out.

RIP, Praying for your wife and you.

Prayers for a lot more of you. Ed

Bird,

Sorry for your loss.

The picture of her sleeping on your shoulder was the cutest thing.

Rswyan - So you have the cat tower in the house, ...

Not yet ... in the garage still.

It was stored in the basement of one of The Woman's co-workers after they no longer had cats ... and needs cleaned and the dust/cobwebs vacuumed off.

Won't bring it in until I'm ready to do that.

and "The Squeek," and soon to be 800G fishtanks filled with all kinds of neat stuff all in a semi-closed living space.

Life sure is interesting.

LOL ... no doubt.
