What did you buy this week?

[MossRoad]

Sorry to hear. May you heal up

Thanks, but no sympathy needed. I wanted it done. Couldn't do squat since March. My employer is very understanding. I'm fortunate.

Recovery is no fun, even for the spouse. My wife is learning a new way of living.

Your back brace may improve your posture. My uncle wore one for 3 months after breaking his back in the late 60's. He was instructed to put it on before he got out of bed in the morning and not to take it off until he was in bed at night.

April can't come soon enough for me either.

I'm allowed to sleep with it off, or sit in a recliner with it off, but I'm wearing it almost 24/7.

I already notice that when I look at myself in the mirror from the side my back is almost a straight board. No more little bend in the lower back. I don't care for the look. But, most people don't care for my looks without a shirt on either.

4″ Self Feeding Wood Chipper, FH-BX42-R Refurb​

My use is seldom and I will share this with a friend...about the cost of a couple of rentals.
I have had good luck with their 7' flail mower over a few yrs of use.

VERY glad I bought those heaters! -15 here this morning!

No big deal for you guys in the upper Midwest, but it hasn't been that cold in this part of PA. for over a decade. Fortunately, there is no breeze, or the wind chill would be brutal!

I can't believe you are 20 degrees colder than me, and it's also colder south of my area.
Was 5 this morning.

Pasture Vac 800, basically a tow behind large wet vac with a 5 hp Honda engine. Will be used to clean horse pastures, stalls, and water troughs.

Yesterday, it was -17 in Selinsgrove, which is 40 miles south, but only -3 here.

It isn't just latitude. Clouds, wind and topography can make a big difference. There is also the heat island effect if you are in or near a city.

No City here for 30 or so miles. Just seems like we are in a valley during this freeze.
Yesterday was windy, I'm sure the temp with wind was -.
Stay warm.

In South Virginia, right now it's up to 12°F...because of global warming I'm sure...

Haven't heard much about global warming the past few weeks. Wonder why?

Because it's a hoax?

I was making reference to the cold temperatures that most of us seem to be experiencing.

I'm pretty sure T-Rex was blaming Brontosaurus farts way back when too

Nobody has talked about global warming for the past decade. It’s called “climate change” now.

Fuddy just spoke of it at 9:27 am today. If he had called it climate change, I would have referred to it that way in my comment.
