What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

No ice here 60* and foggy .

 

Lots of branches down. More falling all the time. Not really supposed to warm up, so it may be here for a bit.

 

It is a real mess here. But we did not lose power. Yet. More ice today from what they say.

 

They said 65k customers w/o power on the news so you are one of the luck ones.

 

Eastern Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes are all covered with ice and flights out of BC are cancelled and delayed. I hope everyone gets through this unscathed. We have 5 C (41 F) temps and rain coming down.

 

Just got done straightening up the mess that is the dining room corner. Big plant stand full of herbs in front of the window, end table full of board games on adjoining wall, and a lot of tools and supplies from various projects shoved in between. The plants were suffering because of it.
Swapped stuffed around, added another plant hanger, cleaned off upstairs bookshelf last week and the games went on it, tools and chargers went in the end table and one small "upstairs" tool box that is hiding beside it. All the other materials got put away not that those projects are done and I'm not starting any new til after the holidays.

 

We are renovating today so the living has ladders and tools everywhere. The utility room has a cupboard down and drywalling going on. I am making bread and wrapping presents between holding the light for the workman doing the real work. Gotta take time though for checking out Firewoodhoarders Club. It is better than Facebook except for none of my grandchildren pictures.

 

That wall behind the plant stand is going to become a half wall going into the kitchen. Got to level the floor out some first, old house is a bit saggy. Old lady is too, but not too bad yet. I'm going to go hide the cast iron on the off chance she reads this.

 

Never mind the cast iron, lock the guns up even better.

 

Don't have any!

 

Same here working on the powder room off the kitchen started this before Thanksgiving , but we're getting there my honey is doing the painting right now goal hope to be done by new year.
A few pic's

 

Skipping work today. Exhaust rotted off truck yesterday. Been coming for a couple weeks, but was hoping it would last a bit longer.

It did sound cool yesterday when I was yanking 2 F-350's stuck to the axles in mud and snow. Amazing how easy it is with 90' of 3" strap. Made a believer out of both of them.

He tried to pay me, but I declined. I just said " it's always a pleasure to pull a Ford out of the mud with my GMC."

 

I have to work today and a couple of hours tomorrow, then I have the rest of the week off. Of courses, I have more work to do at home than if I go to work

 

Buttering them up for a load of wood aren't ya?

 

Temp dropped again. Good thing I've got some days off to babysit the stove. But on my way to work today.

 

Im off till next monday and im already going nuts. I was hoping to get some time in the woods today but mother nature had different ideas. Woke up to a dreary rainy day. You folks are probably gonna hear from me alot today lol

 

I have Tues and Thurs off, doing Xmas with in laws tomorrow, got to finish getting the house in shape tonight. Doing fall cleaning g still since we didn't have time for spring cleaning this year with all the wood processing. I guess it's now winter cleaning.

 

You keep talking about your wife that way and you know what you won't be getting now don't you! Long cold winter nights!
