Afternoon everyone, got bored being lazy. I decided to clean the dryer vent, only one trip to the hardware. Had to replace the weather head, you know “ the flapper thingy outside “.

 

Good Morning. Hope the day goes well. We were able to take our youngest son and girlfriend out to celebrate his new promotion. Had dinner outside in a heated tent. It was nice. As is our holiday tradition when someone gives us great service, we doubled the bill and then rounded up and left a very nice tip. Hopefully it will help her out a little.

@CVYota Andy I’m glad they were able to push fluids and meds, and that you all were able to get some rest in the comfort of your own home. Will continue to pray.

Stay well...stay safe everyone. I appreciate you.

 

You’re making me look bad...haha. I really need to do that as well. But the faucet in the main bathroom started leaking last night so that’s the chore for the day. Looks great!

 

Me too. Thanks.

Thank goodness.
We will be thinking of you guys. Do you need to contact his doctor to see if any medication adjustments need to be made?

Ahh, yes....the flapper thingy outside.

 

Good morning!

 

Thank goodness! Was praying for and thinking about y'all before I went to sleep last night and woke up this morning wondering if he was any better.

I think it's really beautiful how caring and close everyone is to each other in here, although most of us have never met in person. This world could learn a lot from you all.

 

I just found out a friend of mine that I worked with at the old place broke his back on the day before Thanksgiving. He was helping his neighbor who is a fire marshal cut a limb and fell off the ladder 15 feet up. He’s permanently paralyzed from the waist down. Sad, just sad.

 

Oh no, prayers.

 

Replaced an existing 42 watt TT fluorescent fixture with a new LED 15 watt this afternoon. Got me out of Christmas decorating. Happy Sunday all! Edit: Removed robin redbreast's 'dirt" from nest on brick.

 

That needs At least 100 watts


Lol

 

5000K of beautiful pure white light, one time that I can't wait till dark.

 

I guy I know did something similar years ago - fell out of a tree while attempting to cut a branch. He was laid up for months and has never been the same. He was in his early 60s at the time.

 

every bulb I replace goes to 100 watt daylight bulb.
And I’m still saving money lol

 

I think I’ll do that next year...

 

If you're talking incandescent (750 hour bulb) you will change bulbs 66.66 times over the 50000 hour life of my LED fixture . Plus I am saving 85 watts over the entire lifespan.

 

No led

 

I will add him to our list. That is so hard. One of our elementary principals was helping his neighbor clean his gutters 2 years ago and fell off the ladder. He ended up fracturing his skull, injuring his brain. Ladder work can be so dangerous. I think many of us (or just me maybe) take it for granted.

 

I went with LED 3000K floods for the can lights and they're very bright . Also being almost 20 ft off the ground i know I won't need to worry about replacing anytime soon
