Hey, it's light out and late. Been out working for a while, thought someone would have coffee/ph00 ready. Soooooo, it's on and ready. Brought sprinkles - all ready ate all the banana bread.

Wrapping up an easy day at work. Looks like we have a good chance for severe weather later today. I knew there was a good reason I didn't put all the Christmas stuff in the yard this year!
Lot's of folks already getting hit, if you are one of them, be careful!

Just enough snot falling here to make driving a bit tricky. Just got home with the rust bucket 1 ton, and missed the driveway by about 2 lengths the first try.
Crazy morning. Neighbor wanted to borrow Blue to go get wood. No problem, DW and I will take the car to the Chiropractor. About ready to leave, and WORK calls, part of the computer system is down. Told them what connectors to wiggle and promised to come in. No problem, I'll take the Grey, the other CTD 1 ton. Sent DW to chiropractor with the car. Went to start the CTD and the battery was down. Threw jumpers on it from Blue, started it, and the generator wouldn't go. Checked fielding on the alternator, and it's all zeros. Tachometer's working, so it isn't the CPS. Replaced the ASD relay with no help. Turned it over to probe the connections, and discovered the power feed wire was corroded and broken off about 1/2 inch from the relay. About then WORK called and said they were up except for a couple of stations. Neighbor showed up and took Blue. DW doubled back to get me to the chiropractor. Got home, and helped the neighbor unload Blue......... Why am I tired at Noon?
Got a cuppa and gone back to the rat race.

I'm tired just reading about your morning - - I will shut up about mine other than to say don't try to teach a lady who knows nothing about a computer how to handle Windows 10, especially one who clicks on everything on the screen that has an X on it. That concluded about 1 with the computer running again - - wonder how long that will last.

What gets me is when someone is proud of their computer illiteracy. That is impossible to overcome.

I have been extra bad this year, I sure hope Santa brings extra coal.
Short days week, had to make up for the holiday pay deficit by working 8hr days instead of 10. Which means I also lost a normal day off. Got today and tomorrow off. -2° and had a little snow and a lot of freezing fog yesterday. Almost got creamed on the way home. Idiot driver on his cell phone not paying attention while merging into traffic. The 2 lane along the river was nice and slick, so I had a blast. Roxie was busy this week, scored 2 more Redpoles. Nice she is starting to support herself, cat food ain't cheap. Got my 1st complaint about the stereo in the hangar from the mechanic next door. He said turn it up, he can't hear it clearly.
Have a safe and reasonable sober Christmas Eve with family and friends.
Hugs and handshakes from The Coug, The Blond, And the Roxie.

Busy Christmas Eve so far. Go here, do that kind of stuff. After last night's storms, it's bright and sunny.
Everyone have a Merry Christmas and give your Families an extra hug.

Good Job - - Coug. I had seen that movie but was trying to figure how Lary and family were applying it. Amazing.
No ph00 left, so just pass thru and say MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE. What a neat time of the year. Off to church shortly to celebrate the birth of Jesus. What an event - - changed the world - - and a lot of people.
Have a great one.
