    That’s to much not in control for me.
    I’m a manual type of guy.
    I want to turn the shit on and off.
    We had Alexa for a month or so and unplugged it.
    We asked it all the weird questions and laughs and then threw it in the drawer.
    I know it sounds funny but......

    Morning people
    So I did a thing
    And then another thing


    Drove into work.

    people in the Write up drive..

    we are closed.

    drove home.
    Rearrange the garage for snow blowing.
    Having another cup of coffee.

    Not surprising,
    So started texting everyone on my way home to turn around.
    No replies...

    maybe they were all still sleeping .

    Good Morning All

    It's my Friday.



    I had this same system. Still had to run cords in the house. The well pump, septic pump and furnace used 4 of the 6 circuits.
    Last year we had a new circuit panel box put in. I went with a box like what @Tacoma Mike has. Now I can pick and chose what I want to run.

    I took my daughter to her new job this morning. It appeared at first that nobody was in. We drove past a car stuck in the snow, through the lot and found about 5 vehicles there. So, in she went for her first day. It was an interesting ride at 5:30 this morning. The truck did well in the snow.

    Good morning. Wont go into details but hit a rough patch Friday night and am now just getting back to a sense of normalcy. Headed to the Eye Surgeon today for tests and lab work...wretched disease!

    @CVYota Andy thank you for the patch. It is awesome! Really appreciate it!

    Stay Well...Stay Safe

    Well that's dumb - can't management send a text to everyone letting you know you were getting a snow day? Hope it wasn't too much of a drive.

    Came in from clear the driveway and cleaned up. I was going to be later than the start time they told us yesterday so I texted the boss. He replied, oh, they decided to close... good thing I didn’t drive all the way there - it takes about 50 minutes...

    Our new phone system might be able to do it but don’t want every Tom ,dick and Harry to know it.
    We usually text each other but this happened just as I walked in the door.
    So most everyone was in their cars I assume. So I texted the people I have and all we can do.
