2 days ago, I felt good! I went outside and did a little rock collecting. Got my hair cut. The next day after supper, I got nauseated and threw up. And still not feeling good.
I guess Jim got tired of me not posting enough, have not heard from him. I hope he is ok.

Sorry you are not feeling well. Maybe something you ate? Hopefully you will feel better soon
I haven't seen Jim anywhere.

I just looked, he's been on the Wisconsin sites so he's ok

That's good to hear!
I am starting to feel better, I think it was a virus of some sort.
Today I started making a quilted wall hanging, not sure who is going to get it. I may keep it myself.
 
I am alive and well.
I was taking advantage of the unseasonabley warm weather to get outside projects done.
I insulated the wall at the stairway in the garage. then I dug out some 2x2ft ceiling panels I had stored for about 22 years, they were salvaged from a job I did. I paneled the wall with them. I like to recycle when I can. I also added hand rails up the stairs. installed an LED light upstairs. Annie has been cleaning up there. she was using a head lamp for light. the LED is so much nicer.
got everything out of the way for snow plowing.
it snowed only once a few weeks ago. melted as it hit the ground.
on the cold days, I started two 5 gallon batches of blackberry wine. one is bottled already.
the other should be ready in about a week.
now, as long as all the fermenting equipment is still out, I am thinking of making 5 gallons of beer.
not pilsner like last time. just a lager. much easier and I like the taste better.
I hope to stay in contact better from now on.
thanks for thinking of me.

Glad to see you.
Lights are a great thing, I have some 40 and 60 years old t12 that I probably should replace. 😂

this is the before situation before insulation and tiles.

After . the tiles are accustical , hence the rough texture. I found that cutting them with the table saw made the cleanest edges.
i have these same tiles as a suspended ceiling in the large chicken coop.
