Good Afternoon.
41F and "Fair" @ 14:00, calling for a high of 45F for the day. Low this morning was 25.2F.
Warm temps (50's) through Friday then rain on Saturday as a cold front comes through and temps drop to more normal for this time of year.
Got WonderBoard cut last night using the cement/fiber blade in the jigsaw. It was close to fitting but still needs a little further trimming for the appropriate gaps ... so I'll work on that sometime this afternoon/evening.
10,000 lumen LED light (one of two) out in the garage appeared to fail last night as I was doing that. Supposedly rated for a 20,000+ hour life, very disappointing as it's only been a couple of years and I'm sure nowhere that amount of hours.
Noticed as I was taking it down that the clear plastic cover was full of small bugs at the bottom. Took cover off and cleaned the cover out thinking maybe the bugs had something to do with the failure. Still need to blow the rest of the bulb out and see if that makes any difference which is doubtful. Bulb flashes when fed power.
Curious - how many folks have finished floors underneath their kitchen cabinets ... rather than just the plywood subfloor ?
Still need to get old dishwasher and old inner tub loaded into the van. Remembered that the 40 year-old Kenmore microwave needs to go too ... so will haul that out of the dining room where it's sitting now that I have the tires on the two-wheeler pumped up. Might wait a couple more days when it will be about 10F warmer.
At a minimum, the hopper feeder needs checked, probably needs filled. The little ones that frequent the tube feeder definitely do not prefer the cheap seed I've started using. Tube feeder will probably last better than a week where before I was lucky if the refill lasted 4 days.
Plants in dining room no doubt need watered.
Woman planning on a trip to the grocery store, then has to pick up neighbor who is dropping her van off at the local repair shop for work.
Maybe a trip down to Menards this evening to pay for new refrigerator and get the delivery scheduled.
Think we'll put it in the dining room initially, which is just off the kitchen. That will give us a chance to fire it up and get it cool before unloading the current unit.
Hope everyone is having a decent Tuesday ...
