    Thank you. I sure don't want anything to do with it. She is home resting in her chair with her dog on her lap.
    I was more than little concerned Friday. When she arrived at the ER BP was 72/64 they were very concerned and were considering giving her a helicopter ride to the big city. She was severely dehydrated. They started 2 IV bags of Saline. The BP finally started to come back up.
    I was real concerned because my mom had the same symptoms when she had her last heart attack.

    Still nothing here. It's grey out though. It sure looks like snow. I was about to haul a 4x8 trailer load full of Siberian elm, some chunky monkeys of silver maple, a bit of sugar maple and some shagbark hickory and get that all stacked on the patio. I also ran the saw and cut up more of the ash that we took down a month ago. That's nearly all cut to length and just needs me to get the splitter here and go to town on that. 20181125_160550_HDR.jpg

    I took the garbage to the street for pick up tomorrow, and I changed the spotlight bulb to an LED bulb, although not a flood or spotlight. We'll see how that works. I may need an led flood/ spotlight.

    I meant to get the wreath up today, but we are out of D cells that the led LED lites that it takes. I certainly don't want to have to redo that, so it'll wait until tomorrow.

    I did some other stuff too, but I forget what it was. I will work on moving my bike forward so I can get the snowblower in the garage.

    Just checked the radar and it looks like the snow will pass by to the south. Supposed to be a bit cooler this week which will help the ground freeze up a bit.

    Still nothing. I was just grilling a marinated flank steak on the patio.

    I just hope whatever falls, that it does it tonight and not tomorrow am.

    Had a thermostat go out in the house a few months back at tail end of summer. I just have one thermostst per heatpump. This one was what the AC installer put in, just builder grade. Probably had 8 years on it. Something fried. The blower was running constatly but would not cut the heat pump on in the house. The 2 in the house were the same at this point so i just grabbed the face of the other one and out it on the base and the unit cut on. Thank goodness. $35 and like 4 days later i had a new one from amazon and i didnt have to swap them from unit to unit to get air on wach side of the house. Luckily we could get by during the day without the need for AC.

    Yeah, that's me. I think at this point I'm just going to wait until I get the right tank to move my fish from downstairs to the main level.
    Who knows, I might change my mind 4 more times.;)

    Trolling C-list in bed last nite for parts for my C4500. Been looking for 6 months through junk yards ,truck shops, eBay and connections of mine with no luck.
    Hit jackpot a couple hours away in Buffalo.:thumbs::thumbs::thumbs::dex::dex::dex::dex:
    Lil woman said I guess we're going on a road trip tomorrow!!!!
    I procrastinated a bit and said "it can wait till next weekend" she said "NOPE ,,, we are going!!!"
    Told the kids be ready to go at 8am. They all had no interest. We even through in the idea of stopping at Niagara Falls and they still weren't buying into it.
    Great day trip to the falls , adults only :thumbs: !
    Got to the guys place and talking to him he said he was trying to clean some stuff up so he didn't have to plow around everything. When he said that I knew I had good bargaining power.
    Asked what else he had for sale . Came home with way more than I bargained for !!! Spent $600 and saved about $3800 off retail price, plus bought some parts I don't need that I can eBay and get my 6 bills back! Awesome day "adulting" with the Lil woman and bargain hunting !:dex:
