Welcome to the Fugee thread.
We just like to be a bit silly and have good natured fun and socialize a bit here.
Ohh and some vaping stuff as well

 

[The Cromwell]

Just ordered 4 30Q batteries. My 2+ yr old HG2's are getting to be pretty short run time.

 

[LynnNC]

I'm waiting on the plumber that was supposed to be here at noon.

I desperately need new batteries but don't see it happening soon. Another fuck up from yesterday...I think the heater on my waterbed is going out. They're not that expensive but now is not the time to be filling a waterbed with water from the outside faucet. It will take a week to warm up.

 

[LynnNC]

My busted pipe has been replaced and the water is back on!!

 

[The Cromwell]

Great you do not have to carry buckets to the creek now.

 

[LynnNC]

Great you do not have to carry buckets to the creek now.

Or poop in the woods! Yay!!

 

[LynnNC]

And...the hot water is back so I won't have to heat the creek water after I tote it to the house!

 

[The Cromwell]

Or poop in the woods! Yay!!

You can bucket flush the toilet.

 

[LynnNC]

You can bucket flush the toilet.

Yep! I went out and looked...the nearest creek is about an eighth of a mile away.

 

[LynnNC]

Here's the only good thing about winter. I have garbage disposals. Even if it's on sale frozen shrimp fried rice with baby corn.

 

[JuicyLucy]

Mr Juicy made me a hamburger

You a lucky girl.

Poor you, Lynn....you certainly have bad luck, I bet you don't waste money on lotto tickets though...

The spammers seem to be thick this evening. For the life of me, I can't help but wonder why they don't have SOME type of rule to not let every tom dick and harry to simply register, and begin spamming....beyond me, anyway.

 

[JuicyLucy]

Don't eat that 357 - heavy metals are terrible for the circulatory system!

 

[LynnNC]

You got that right! Scratch off tickets either.

Yep especially after the diet that you have been doing.

 

[LynnNC]

Afternoon everyone It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood here today. Sun is shining and its 55 degrees. Woot!!

Ten degrees and the sun is out! I'm happy

 

[The Cromwell]

46, overcast and humid as heck here.
Been outside fussin with a chainsaw.

 

[JuicyLucy]

Eh, very, very rough start on that - but I've made peace with it

The little bit of cheating I did during the holidays wasn't as satisfying to the pallet as my imagination anticipated and the repercussions physically were swift

But look at it this way, a year ago (this all came down Jan. 2, 2017) I was miserable, in pain, lacked energy and my joints were so swollen up I could hardly rewick an attie, lol

I can now stand on my head (really!) or be on my feet all day - that is freedom

 

[The Cromwell]

Only joint problems I have in in my feet and back.
Back is 20 years or so of Degenerative disc disease and complications thereof.
Feet... I dunno DR thinks arthritis And wanted me to go to specialist which was not covered by Obamacare.
so I just take naproxen for my back and it helps my feet too

Yoga on the beach maybe?

 

[DogMan]

Sand in all sorts of fun places lol

And no foot grip

 

[The Cromwell]

And for all you girls on the beach drinking beer.
Keep the sand out of your Schlitz.

 

[LynnNC]

Afternoon errybody!
One of my New Year's intentions was to cook more. I'm eating BBQ chicken, boiled potatoes smothered in butter and baked cabbage. Yum yum!! I thought I had almost forgotten how to cook.

@DogMan I'll trade my 50 degrees for your 94.

Work later so everybody behave!

 

[The Cromwell]

Dogman is in mid summer I think.

Do the toilets really spin the other way down there?

Does that mean that we're in mid winter? I was really hoping that we were in early Spring.

Heck the first 2 weeks of FEB are usually the worst here in KY.

We’re enjoying 50’s and 60’s here this week but it’s supposed to be back in the 30’s this weekend. I’ve had enough cold to last me until next winter.

 

[The Cromwell]

near 70 here today with same tomorrow and a bllizzard moving in friday night.

In Ky if you do not like the weather just wait a few hours.

Been working on getting wacko SIL's water back on after freeze and burst pipes and such...

Success a bit ago.

From this point on, any busted copper pipe gets a PEX pipe and compression fittings.

 

[The Cromwell]

The push fitting will just pop off of copper if they freeze. The compression ones with the nut on them should be good.
Push fittings work fine on PEX and CPVC.
CPVC is much less susceptible to freeze damage than copper.


I was a Plumbing Pro for a few years at Lowes
And an Electrical Pro too.

It took the plumbers a grand total of 15 minutes to get the section of busted pipe off, compression fittings and new pipe in place. And 5 minutes of that was going out to the truck and getting the pipe and fittings. $112. I'm not complaining because at least 1. my water is back on and 2. the PEX won't burst when it freezes. I'd like to have all the copper pipe replaced under my house. I need an Electrical Pro! Wanna come here and rewire my house? I'd like to have each room wired to its on circuit breaker. Is that doable?
