63°F and no rain.

Lowe’s delivery was good. Able to get broken out and sorted, but boy, my muscles feel it this morning. plan was to start painting, but by the time I got all those 4x6s on my paint station I was dragging.

Plan for the day is get the painting, hopefully 2 coats. 1 coat takes longer, but likely 2-3 hours per coat an a couple hours in between. Maybe watch some football but painting will have priority.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Morning all, 39 going up to 42 and sunny, got some hot water out of the solar yesterday , sure it's January?

Went out and got a small step to help me fill in the gaps near the garage ceiling.
Son and friends in garage practicing so will need to wait. last panels and one can sealer plus a few seams taped before wife dragged me off to the humongous KOP mall yesterday.

Most Christmas decorations in/down and a few fixed for next year.

Wagtail - guess possum did not get to play possum?

Just got told need to accompany wife to bordentown and son and friend want to got there, more project delays.

Fox woke me up at 1am with a serenade, not fun.

Be well,

The anti slip treads on the bottom are coming off and this will be an experiment to see if a repair is possible. The FlexSeal will be applied to the bottom of the soles. I would have just spent the money on a new pair.
Had not thought of FlexSeal for shoe repair. Please update us on the results.
Just so I understand your plan, is it to use the FlexSeal between the sole and the shoe?

4x6 is heavy David, take it slow, don't drop any on your sandals...

ran wash, changed house filters again, and two months later the sediment filter was not as gummed up as last time but was solid orangey brown.
So I changed out the charcoal filter/taste filter also. Couldn't tell much about that. Left the large calcite filter alone. Short of taking it all apart and shaking it, and
it started off mighty heavy, no way to know how much is left inside. So I will change every six months. Not a cheap filter.

fed the birds and remembered what Ron said, and fed three old kaiser rolls to the birds, all crumbled up. Probably more like for the squirrels.
curious to see what will eat them. Two of them I jammed up in feeders. I bet if I watched long enough I'd find an enterprising squirrel up there
hunting for his prize.

reminds me to go try again taking off the screen on one window in the living room.
Then I can finally take some bird pictures.

Agreed, but a 500 micron vacuum is adequate if held for a half hour or so.
The bigger issue is having a micron gauge to verify it.

I would like to see this all done. How is the purging done on Mr Cool line sets? Aren’t the lines open to air when they are installed? My understanding the outdoor unit is precharged, and opening valve puts Freon in the line set.

Where do you connect vacuum pump?
I have a gauge set, but I haven’t used them in over 30 yrs when a guy that knew what he was doing helped me recharge a heat pump.

There is no purging the lines on Mr. Cool they are pre charge you just connect them open the allen screws on each line and you are ready to run!

20° was the low. Nice heavy frost on this morning.
Had an incident during worship we never experienced before, in the middle of the minister delivering his sermon, a young man stood up and started saying stuff over top of the minister speaking. He had to be escorted out of the assembly.
He has some issues, and his mom & dad were quite embarrassed. We have had issues with him before, but never had an episode like this.

Lunch was good.
Wife is at funeral for an Aunt. I did not go, they were having too many people at her mom’s house.
Still having issues with water softener, even after the “fix”.
