    Yup... the big section of the old farm had a 2' crawl space under there. Just plain LOTS of fun layin' on my belly like a reptile in there, and crawling over to the opposite end, too many times. I don't miss that at all...

    I was hoping that my weight would be around 218-219 tomorrow but I just broke through 224 again (223.5 this morning) so I increased my morning jaunt on the treadmill to 27 minutes from 15. I'll be doing the same 27 this afternoon, boy is that shirt smelling bad.

    No worries, that wind is turning back around soon. Tomorrow's high temp will be at 12:01 am then it is downhill from there.

    Not sure what it is about me, Salvation Army, and wire, but this is twice now. Not as useful as the 50' of 12/2 NM-B I got for $5 last time, but I couldn't not buy it.

    No crawl space today! Just below zero and strong winds.

    Best part of the day is when the ext ladder I was on decided to slide down the wall. With me at the top of the climb. Happened very fast; unfortunately, there was nothing to grab on to on the way down but the ladder rails!

    It hit bottom flat and hard enough to slice clean through an uncoiled spool of T-stat wire that was between the ladder and the wall!

    Sore hip, knees, shins, elbow and shoulder.

    I hope I get an inspection later on this evening....!!! ;)

    Ice... Ice... and more Ice is scheduled for our area for the next 3 days, I guess 1/4" to 3/4" is expected... I've got 15 gallons of fuel ready for the generator and 2 gallons for the saws... Hoping for the best, preparing for the worst...

    In 1998 our last big ice storm this area was without power for a month. We have enough gas cans we could have just over 32 gallons on hand.

    Stay Safe
