Good Morning
14° now, might get above freezing later today. Another clear day.

Yesterday was a pretty lazy day. I did go to the grocery and got some onions and ground meat. I made up a batch of meal sized meat loaves and froze them for future meals (except for the one we ate last night).
Didn’t accomplish much else that I remember, we had the last of the pork belly for lunch.

Other than the short trip to the grocery store, I never left the place.

No finite plan for today either, still thinking about taking the little plane for a tour of the neighborhood, but that’s literally up in the air.
I’ve got a little bit of paperwork to take care of, but not much of a priority. Cars are a salty mess, but the roads are still salty, so I’ll leave them dirty for now.

Two_bit hope you got some good granddaughter time.

Yes, thank you, we always have a great time when she is with us. She is a little tornado.

Popgadget, the part I want cleaned off the most is underneath. Only a drive through car wash with jets will do that
car wash in Newtown outstanding but of course expensive. Little one near McDonalds in Doylestown used to be 7 bucks for plain wash
and dry off. What a deal. I'm not even sure where the local quarter car wash is. Probably Flemington NJ.

I always prefer doing it myself but with water turned off, have to look elsewhere.
Next week when it warms up I can turn outside water back on for a few days.
My outside water is a Goodyear black rubber hose running about two inches underground to back of house from front.
Iffy since that stays in the shade also, last to warm up. That is some kind of tough hose.
I have one outside spigot on this cottage and one outside electric receptacle.
not exactly convenience rich...........
where this is a will, there usually is a way

Currently 44F and predicted to 52F. Rain pouring down. Looks like it may rain through Wednesday, tapering off on Thursday.

Got a few errands to run and will be taking the tiny tornado with us.

Everyone stay warm, dry, healthy and well fed!

Good morning! 46˚F, so far 3.15" of rain since midnight, puddles everywhere. More rain expected over the next several days, finally some runoff for our area lakes. A little work in the study and a little time playing cards with the neighborhood group should suffice the day. Some developments may be happening toward the end of the week, fingers crossed.

Costco now sells lightbulbs that you can adjust the brightness and white color 5 levels by a switch on the side of the bulb. They really work well, about $10 for set of 6 in the store. If bought online you will have to buy an 18 pack for $36.

I just tried it, works fine for me, no additional agreement required.

good news is one very cold cd player showed up
letting it wait until this afternoon to warm up chassis
but my expensive toslink cable is the wrong one or I need an adapter
The output of the CD player is coaxial digital audio. The input to the Sprout amplifier
is the square toslink digital type. So I have a round going into a square.
Is there an adapter for one end? Is that considered a mini?

the humorous part of this is I can play the unit this afternoon.
On a 99 cent set of rca connector cables, the super cheap freebies they give you, from some other unit.
will be very interesting to compare sound quality when I do get the right cable.

bad news is I can't get photos off my phone any more.
they are in there, even paid the buck a month for more I storage.
will fiddle with that for sure
