Granny's gone and done it again

Our power is out. Temperature in the 30s. Luckily the wood stove is keeping us warm. They say power may be on by 8 pm.

Glad you have that stove!

We have a backup gas fireplace but no gas service. We have natural gas available at the road but don't know it this fireplace is set for propane or natural. Just as soon not use it. We don't get more than a few days of really cold cold weather a year. 3 bad bad ones last year and maybe 10 at most of some we didn't like at all. It would cost less for us to rent a motel room in town for a few nights than raise the insurance and pay for the connection to the gas service.

Up one more for a Great Grandchild. Another was on the way, but she lost it last week. View attachment 3673640

Miscarriages are awful to go through, especially when it's a first child that is very much wanted. I lost 2

Us too. We do have a generator in case of emergency.

What about frozen pipes?

What about frozen pipes?

We have a way to put heat into the crawl space with our generator and space heaters that will keep any pipes from breaking. Most off to the pipe is the kind that is freeze resistant. No PVC. I think it is call PEX. What we really want to add is a whole house backup generator that runs on propane. Still pondering that idea.

So when can you go back for an appointment now?

we can make the appt. as soon as we show them proof of rabies but they are a couple months back

You need to socialize her. Very typical behavior for a dog that never goes anywhere.

I have preached to him about this and Kevin tries.

Fawn sliced my arm from wrist to elbow. Right now it has gauze pads, paper towels and electric tape holding it. No band aids that long but Tom actually just found one. Its a butt band aid! haha
I called Roberts dr again and said a few things on their machine including it had been 48 hrs since I called and I guess I didnt sound happy. They called me 10 mins. later saying they gave him 20 mg. prednisone once a day for 10 days then for us to call them back at the end of the meds. I can imagine what this is going to do to his sugar.
