Ouch! Been there, it sucks! I tripped over a stick while roller blading when I was around 12 and snapped it catching myself. I hope you heal up fast with no complications and no lasting problems!
I'd say we're very sporadic in here. We'll all probably talk a lot more in the spring. I'm laid off for the winter and getting ready to start setting eggs soon (satins, show girls). I've been trying to get a bunch of stuff taken care of around here but I'm dealing with a back injury and just...
Good morning pond. We sent DS back to base on Saturday. It was hard for sure but it was great having him home for the holidays. We're getting a bit of a warm up around here for the next few days but it comes with rain. The snow will melt and everything is going to be mucky and muddy until it...
Good evening pond! It's a frigid 18° here and it's been snowing since last night. The furnace was officially fixed and running yesterday morning by like 10. It was so nice! Then the power went out again from about 1:30-11pm thanks to high winds. We were out for most of the day anyway but still...
Good evening pond. The good news is, the furnace is "fixed". The bad news is, it needs a new nozzle and fuel filter which the guy didn't have on hand and couldn't get today so we have to go one more night without the heat. He'll be back tomorrow morning with those and it'll be fully operational...
We got a good 1/4" of ice on everything yesterday but roads all got cleared today. The furnace guy is coming to check things out tomorrow. It's $200 an hour though so hopefully it can be a quick fix :/
Welp, nobody coming today. They said the roads are too bad which we expected. The guy wanted us to call back on Monday! We don't have enough propane and wood to last till Monday. I guess DH is pushing him to come tomorrow but if he doesn't call in the morning, we're calling someone else. We need...
We're in the midst of a wonderful ice storm today. First thing this morning the power went out before the storm even started. Once it came back on and the ice really started laying, we realized that our furnace is now not working. DH called someone and they're going to attempt to come out but...
Merry Christmas everyone! Apparently we have an ice storm rolling in tomorrow. Thankfully not today! Hope you all have a wonderful day!
Edited to add: one of my Christmas presents this year lol
Good morning pond! It got frigid on my lily pad yesterday. It started out spring-like around 50° in the morning then dive bombed to 20's by 2pm and dumped a couple inches of snow! We survived though and had a nice fire going past night. DS is coming home for Christmas today! We have to make the...
I'll let you know what they say. It's a good thing I'm laid off for the winter. My last couple days of work, I was up ladders painting (as I am often). I'm not very good at "behaving" myself and "resting" lol. I'm going to do my best though
Wow, I'm glad you got some relief for a while! It sucks that the pain is starting to come back :( Surgery scares me, especially anywhere near the spine.
