We had one heck of a storm come through last night. Over half the town lost power. Trash bins blown down the road. Branches down all over the yard. Over 4 inches of rain in one night. The parks had to be closed due to flooding. Rumors of dams busting.
I'll cut up the branches for the smoker, and finish picking up all the pecans.

Flea market weekend. Hubby found some steel for the smoker he is building to sell, and at a price too good to pass up. We also went by the feed store to sell the pecans I collected so far. At 125.5 lbs, it put a bit of cash in my purse. No, I did not lift them. I am not that crazy, nor that stupid. That's what men are for.
Morning!
All is well here, Jessie and I are still healthy and mostly staying out of trouble. Son-in-law is staying with me for a few months, nice to have him here for now. Having to make a few adjustments of course but he's a good guy.
I hope you all have a great, and tasty, Thanksgiving!!!
Stay safe and healthy

Happy Thanksgiving to all my VU brothers and sisters. May your day be filled with love and laughter. But mostly, PIE!!
Morning!
I do not like the cold! I'm in my recliner, wrapped in a blanket, I'm such a wuss. Jessie is cuddled to my side.
SIL is doing great, working a bunch of overtime. Nice to have someone around.
I went to the grocery store, decided to try to stay home as much as I can until after Christmas. It's wild out there! I'll do my shopping online. I love seeing all of the lights and decorations, this time of year is so pretty.
I hope you are all doing well, staying warm, hugging your loved ones.
Stay happy, healthy, and safe

The Geminid meteor shower is tonight and the 13th and 14th. Up to 150 meteor's an hour can be seen. Just in case folks want to watch. I am seeing different times though for best viewing. I figure I will go outside around 10pm my time. (CT zone)
Hope everyone is well. Happy to hear you have some company misswish

Today, I took the sickle I restored as well as ice block tongs I restored, and donated them to our town's historical museum. They had no tongs, and the only sickle has a dry-rotted handle with tape wrapped around it. My donations may seem small, but are high quality and will last as long as the museum stands. As is, each item is already at least 53 years old. I hope people will appreciate such items the same way I do.
real people who appreciate things that have been used and are still here after many years of graft will appreciate it, other people would prefer something powered that does the work. those people usually have beer guts and a low iq.
