    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    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...

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    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...

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    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...

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    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...

    We have a little snow left out there but I doubt it'll stick around. Nothing but sporadic rain/ freezing rain for the next week it looks like

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    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...

    Our fridge finally died this summer and we also went with a freezer on the bottom this time. I'm loving it!

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    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.

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    @rillowe and @Cynthia12 Thanks both of you! I guess maybe I will take some ibuprofen. I've been avoiding taking anything unnecessary and just dealing with it. But I guess I probably shouldn't be climbing up on a chair/ counter tops and scrubbing down the walls right now lol. As soon as they...

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    Thank you both for your insight and encouragement. They did finally call yesterday but my signal kept cutting in and out and they weren't very descriptive. They suggested physical therapy to start and surgery if that doesn't work. I still don't know if they're slipped or herniated. I do have...

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    Good morning pond. Cold on my lily pad! I have to give myself a pep talk just to go out and feed the chickens! I've had to keep their bucket of food in the house at night so it doesn't freeze (I soak it overnight). I got my results back from from my MRI that was over a month ago. It was just...

    Feeding Wild Birds

    There's plenty of piliated woodpeckers here but I rarely get to see them. It's my dream to look outside and see one at my feeders! They're so big and beautiful! I need to get a new bag of BOSS for my feeders. I had a suets out there, 3 different flavors. I've found that they love the peanut...

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    Hope everyone is well, especially that new baby! Please keep us updated! I hate when I'm out somewhere doing something and I find a random egg in my pocket... especially when the way I find it is by smashing it in my pocket with my phone. I'm sure the people at the Subaru dealership today were...

    Happy Thanksgiving all! Hope you all have a wonderful and safe day! The wind is whipping on my lily pad so I'm going to hold on tight and hope I don't blow off while I'm gorging on my turkey!

    Feeding Wild Birds

    I just refilled my suet cages the other day. I hadn't filled any of my feeders in a while because of just being busy but I threw some BOSS in last week. There are quite a few birds back to the feeders but the dang squirrels are emptying them like crazy. Tomorrow, I have to take the time to mix...
