    That's quite the place. I loved the pictures of the outside. With a little snow, it would make a great Christmas card.

    Dry this morning but I don't think it will last long. it was really windy yesterday. Bitter cold from the west. campinspecter got the lawn mowed and wood moved into the basement.

    Blue Jays indoor game canceled because of snow on the field. Ice from the CNN tower punched a hole in the roof of Rogers Place and snow landed on the outfield. Should be a double header today.

    Trying to get ready for our GTG this weekend but it's difficult. But perhaps the hardest part might be that I need to mow the tall grass where the guys will be camping. Trouble is, we can't even see it yet as it is all white. This could get interesting.

    My home is by some of the WE Energies wind power generators. I noticed Sun during about the worst of the 2 day snow/sleet/ ice storm that just passed through that most were shut down . those 3 bladed props are spinning at apx 60mph. Some hundred feet up just like a plane wing they will ice up if conditions are right and the start slinging ice, Not to mention that would severely affect the balance factor of the props.

    Or slippery green snow to strain one's back trying to do it worse yet a triple Klutz like
    Stinny has coined and takes special care not perform. That acrobatic move is discouraged at any cost.

    Holy Cow I feel so bad for my neighbor, eviction of a family member that refused to sign a lease is really hard! OMG, the $$$ to pay the bills spent in her name is over a couple thousand, not to mention the work she will miss to clean up and repair all the damage to the home since she moved to another state and had to come all the way back for this crap. So Very Sad. Would you believe most of the internet talks about squatters rights and how to stay somewhere to freeload, but not how the person that worked their fingers to the bone to buy and improve a home to make a decent place for herself and took pity for a family member in need to defend?!?!?!?

    WWW and I are here for her (OMG thank you WWW!!). Other family in another state and one more several hours away as well, but we are the closest and doing what we can and they support her via phone.

    Just one more stressful day/night til waywards' are gone!!

    Monin all... :coffee:... so, I'm down 20 lbs since the beginning of Feb. 30 more to go. Feel better every day. Have been doing those yoga back stretches couple times a day. That's helped. Walking more has helped. Eating better has helped. Drumming every day has helped. My honey has helped, at every turn. Perty sure she likes me moving and doing, more than sitting and beotching... :whistle:... me too.

    Having music as the driving force again, has opened up so much good stuff for this ole fart. And it seems it's doing the exact same thing for most of the other players I'm enjoying time with. Even the younger guys. Very grateful for it all. I have no doubt that eventually I'm gonna feel like firing up the saws again. It's been 4 long years since I was last down in my woods, soaking it all up.

    Gotta thank MasterMech for his time, every once in a while, going back and forth about my tractor maintenance issues. Very much appreciated. Thanks Brian!

    Have a great day everyone !!!
