Yes, it was productive. A little too productive for my back’s liking. But it was a good day and it was fairly warm, which made things nicer. Supposed to be even warmer the next several days though we might get a little rain. We’ll see if that happens.

Howdy, radu!

It was a good day today. A little warmer than I wished for, but not awful, thank goodness!

How was yours?

There you are.

It was a busy day but a good day. No rain but it was cloudy and breezy as the warm front moves in. Kinda nice not having to run the heaters tonight. They’re old and noisy.

Yep....I’m here. Had to restart because something was slowing me down.

it’s always nice not to have to use the heater or the AC. I like the bills to be low for at least one month out of the year. LOL!

I’ve been watching The Shining. LOVE Jack Nicholson in his role. One creeeeeeeeeepy dude!

Yes, it doesn’t hurt to have a chance to keep the electric bill down for a bit. And it’s just nice not being chilly after being so the past several nights. We won’t get as warm as y’all will but warm enough to be comfy.

Guess I’d better shut this thing down and start getting ready for bed. The alarm will go off too early as it is tomorrow morning. LOL

Catch ya tomorrow evening.
