Good Morning from Central Texas
Another foggy / drizzle morning. Temps are 55 degrees at 5:30, 0.05" since midnight. They say 70 degrees today with increasing chances of rain.

Bought a 2025 Chevy Equinox yesterday. Now I have to figure out how to use the displays / electronics. NO printed manual ! You have to download... ugh. Not that I like those 300 page manuals with many vehicles but at least it was available for us "old" guys who like a hard copy. Guess a Walmart run will be needed to buy more printer paper. :(

Hope all have a safe and happy day.

40 going to 61. Snow/ice still on ground in shady areas, was still some on the roof yesterday, but now gone.

Buppies, glad you got a good nap. I might need one today. I had to take Della out at 2:30am after she threw up...probably ate something while hiking in the park off-lease. She can smell a rabbit or deer pellet from a mile away.

BEF, that was a lot of snow. You should have scored more points! 😁

Ken, glad you got your plumbing problem solved.

Don, sounds like Ms Palmer knows what she is talking about and learned much of it through experience.

Good morning, the low is 8 and going to a high of 12°F. Wind NW 9 mph. Flurries. Snow tomorrow all day.

We got about 3" overnight. More to come tonight and tomorrow. I'll plow tomorrow.

No manual on a new vehicle is a deal breaker for me.

Today I will conserve energy.

Have a safe day all

Good Morning,
Ct,24 to start going to 45 becoming more sunny as day goes by !

Kathleen had to get up at 5 am to go get the grandkids ready for preschool, because our DIL is in Florida on a conference until Thursday! We have to pick them up after school and keep them overnight and repeat on Thursday! It should be busy here later ! 😂

Got both vehicles cleaned up yesterday before the temps started dropping!

Don we will all be interested in finding out what we need to do to lead healthier lives ! Please keep us all updated !

Mostly, glad bike repair went well and new gears work out for you !

Would like to spend some time outside while the warmer temps are here !

Hope all have a good day ! 🙏

Good morning! 53˚F heading to the upper 60s, E wind good chance of rain, fog advisory.

Looks like outside projects will be rained out today. Will be a good day to clean the garage. Got the Gooloo so I don't have to worry about getting stranded in the Ford. I'll try one more new battery, a shame they only last a little over 2 years.

Good morning TBN!!
25 this morning under sunny sky. Supposed to be near 60 later.

Not too much yesterday. I did finally get around to starting to cut up the large pine that fell during Helene in the back yard. Probably on todays agenda too.
Wife made the weekly call to FEMA. They said to call back Thur or Fri if we didn't hear from them. Not holding my breath but it is a little more encouraging.
Other than that it was walking the dog. Broke 10k for the first time in a few weeks.

Time for a 2nd cup.
Everyone have a great and safe day!!

Morning all;
An overcast morning here with temps in the mid 20's. We had a bit of light nuisance snow during the night, just an inch or two that has been quite wind blown with another inch in the forecast and wind gusts to 40 mph. Sooner or later today I guess I'll start the tractor and scrape the driveway so it doesn't get packed into ice and do some sweeping and a bit of shoveling around the house. Ten day forecast has several of these little nuisance storms predicted. And as I look out the window just now it's lightly snowing at this time.
I would much rather it dump and be done with.

Dang $1400 for heater hoses and anti-freeze sounds abit high especially since they just had it in and checked it over. But with many of these dealerships charging close to or over $200 an hour on labor times it isn't a big surprise, uncalled for yes, a surprise not really.

All stay safe and get well
time for my breakfast a single biscuit, egg and sausage gravy.

Yea, the paper is the less expensive part.
Can’t believe no manual.

...and INK! 😁
Congrats on the new truck.
Yeah, luckily a few years ago I bought a EcoTank printer. So the INK part is "really" nice and lasts a LONG time. If you have an old style cartridge type and ever want to upgrade, I would highly recommend you look at the Epson's. :)

Good Morning
35° headed to 45 under fair skies.
Yesterday I pretty much accomplished nothing but consummate the deal on the Lexus.
It is now titled and registered to me, and inspected. It was originally taken to the dealer to get inspected, but when it got there, they couldn’t do an official state inspection, because the registration and insurance were expired. They did inspect it, but couldn’t issue the stickers. It was left at the dealer since before Christmas because of the registration and insurance issues.
When I got there to pick it up with current credentials, they said that they would have to re-inspect it to issue the stickers, which I understand, but didn’t want to wait for their schedule. So I took it to my friends shop, where he got it right inside.
I added the xm radio to my subscription and got it activated while he was looking it over.

It’s pretty much like a new car that just happens to be 11 years old. Definitely worth waiting for the deal to happen.

So today will be the day to go order a shed, and get some work done in the shop.

Morning all, 32 going up to 51 and cloudy
Got the garage dried out a bit, still need to leave it dry for another day or two and then re-assemble and cut some patches and new OSB.
Got it cleaned enough that wife can park in her spot and tractor is back inside.

More people let go at work, including some long time friends.

Little round hole top left is where the pipe comes down and had burst.

Sounds like the house is under control. Too bad about work. Those changes will stress you out.

I sincerely hope you can fare well with all those changes.

that looks like quality seat time Phil, enjoy!

some fun news from my brother about his daughter's recognition for stopping and helping a hit and run driver in Charleston.
she has a big heart, no surprise
she intentionally wanted to stop and show her boys in the car it was important to help others.
