Glad you are okay @uchytil
Firewood for rendering maple syrup?

The shingles are in place. Most of the rest of the roof is checked for shingles with loose edges. The rest will have to wait; the roofing caulk says it can be applied down to zero and it wasn't that cold out but the caulk got too cold to get out of the caulking gun. We broke one caulk gun on it.

Legs were literally shaking at each step down the ladder. So, might not be able to get up the ladder tomorrow. Still, much happier to have shingles on the roof again!!

I always love hearing about all of you all's private joys and sorrows. Congratulations Great Granny Rose! Thread seems to be a little spotty lately in attendance, probably folks just busy with the holidays.

Sorry Rose' That is great thing for you. I'll never know anything like that.

I did a direct charge on the battery and the Jeep started right up. Drove to Meijer and when I came out there was nothing when I turned the key. I had tools so I disconnected the ground terminal and tapped it a couple of times to the post and had sparks. Put it back on and snugged it up. Car started just fine. Started it up last night and then again this morning. All was good. Still going to take it to the shop and pull the codes. There has to be something wonky within the system. It's frustrating.

Sounds like there might be a loose wire somewhere.

It's "put the tree up" day. Other than watching the Lions lose, not much going on. Probably a nap in my near future.

That could be the case. I'm not good with electrical issues. Since the idiot light came on there should be code. It won't cost me anything to have it checked.
