Good morning! Well the weather guessers got it wrong again... overnight low of 7C but the current high is only 11C. 3mm of rain in the gauge = missed that event (it did happen South of me) although 'they' are predicting wind & rain today. We'll see.

I did put a fire on last night for the first time this year. Looks like I did a good job cleaning the flue/chimney.

Nothing planned for today as the "Liars" have/had predicted a miserable day (or wonderful, depending on your outlook). Take care all!

Good evening all. 67ºF for the start, overcast, light breeze. Rain in forecast, now down to 1/3 inch from 3 inch. Rain start kept getting delayed, was hard to get properly organise day on such inaccurated data. Got windy, sky cleared off in afternoon and no rain fell. Did get some cleaning done for BIL and wife's sister coming tomorrow, and tires swapped on Trek. After lunch work on mowing front, 8 lawn bags woth and 2 hours mowing time.

Been up the last hour. Radar says rain should start any time, but don’t hear any.

Well I got Les to the Dr today and she said she had to go straight to the hospiital so that is where she is. I really don't think she will be home tonight much to her chagrin. She hates the place especially with alligatoritis in the air. Even after the Dr told her to go straight there she didn't want to go but I was driving so I did a u-turn and took her there.

I’m curious how one of the small battery operated mini tillers really works for weeding. At least you don’t have to bend, but unforgiving if you get too close to plants.

Saw dentist about painful tooth. Nothing obvious on the X-ray, so he’s sending me to endodontist. Turns out this is same tooth I had a root canal done in 2008. So he will probably rip off the crown, rotorooter in the tooth again, then I’ll have to get new crown.

Supper time

Good luck with that, Dennis. Sophie had similar a few years back. Seems the 1st root canal wasn’t deep enough. She really liked the 2nd endodontist. He was a retired Navy dentist. Says he was gentlest ever.

So an hour after I posted the rain started, it's now 1912 and the aerodrome is reporting 15mm so far.

The current temp is only 10C and I expect it to only drop to 7C overnight. It's nice and comforting to have the fire going on the heater... if anything to keep the damp out. I've taken to setting my mobile phone to 'alarm' at 0200 so that I can put more wood on the fire. In the past I've relied on my own 'internal clock' (pee break 😄) to stoke the fire but sometimes I get so 'comfy' that I've gone way past the optimum time.

36F cloudy mid 60's for high.

Outside chores done E muffin time.
Plans for today...Hoping to get 1 cord of wood wheelbarrow into basement another cord tomorrow and date night...that should do it for the day day.

Enjoy your day all.

good morning all
this weekend is going to be a very wet affair, rain starting soon and continuing into Sunday, 2 inches predicted, lot of rain.
Sure like to send Ted some...

Doug, prayers for your wife and hope she is home soon.

was going to plant some snowball bushes that came in from Burgess yesterday, tiny things but at least they had green leaves on the little twig.
Will put them out by road. But have a neck MRI at 1pm so the day is basically shot.
I might go out and look for a few more radishes before the rain starts.

hope you all have a great day
