Good morning!!!!

Good morning! A cool 46˚ cloudy wind blowing. We skipped Fall and dove right into Winter.

Ed my wife had a broken foot and the DR. that was treating it and wanted her to have surgery. He actually yelled at her for not wanting surgery. It did not start healing until her second opinion Dr. gave her the opposite advice for treatment and no surgery was required.

It was still 70° at 5 a.m. but, it's dropped to 57° by 7 a.m. It started raining at 6:30 a.m.

Forecast is for temps to keep dropping, to mid 50's, and windy all day.

Still effects of anesthesia Ron? I can help. Post should read:
"Limbs are still in the lawn because my loving wife, looking out after me, she refused to help me put on a coat. Limbs may be there a few days because I know she is right."

You are right. But those limbs still need picking up for unknown reason.

You are right. But those limbs still need picking up for unknown reason.

Rumor is that if you leave them there for 2-3 years they eventually dissolve. Problem solved.

Now that it's daylight, I can see my rain gauge and it already has more than 1.2" in it and it's still raining. We keep our thermostat in the house set the same 24/7 year round. Of course it's been on "cool" for several months, but this morning, the temperature dropped to 2 degrees below the setting, so I turned on the heat for the first time for this season just to keep the wife happy.

Our Inside Temp just dropped a degree, I'm trying to hold off on turning on the heat till it drops another 5˚.
Outside temp is dropping it's getting colder than the predicted 46˚. Raining and 42˚. I need to keep an eye open for snowflakes.

No WBS or fireplace just Natural Gas central heat this year.

:laughing::laughing::laughing: There must be a book somewhere where the better halves get this idea that we are now temporary invalids...

Good morning to all! Low dropped to 28 last night, received about an inch of snow on the grassy areas and trees. Seems the ground was warm enough to keep the roads clear, which is good. Maybe another round later tonight.

Crazy how the weather goes from summer to winter in a matter of days. I think we had "fall" for about 3 days.... I like fall weather, could take it all year!:thumbsup:

Ron, take care of the shoulder and don't push it....I speak from experience. The wifey just wants you to get better, she knows best.

I will patiently wait until my next dr's appointment to hear his plan... Then maybe another opinion may be in order.

Everyone have a great day. Prayers sent out.

21F today and yesterday morning, got me thinking about being ready for snow... snowblower gearbox has been leaking so I tore it apart yesterday.. Supposedly takes special lube, does not appear to have a gasket. I will put permatex gasket for the joint in aluminum case. Not a big deal, but don't want to ruin snowblower for lack of maintenance..

We also got travel trailer put away in shop for winter along with winterizing sprayer. Still have some garden hoses to gather up and put away but close to ready for winter.
