It snowed overnight. Got to play the "find the new potholes " game today.

More fuckíng rat. Removed the whole circulator pump. Found the impeller housing chewed through and the hose and main tub grommet destroyed. 😑
Figure I can buy the rubber parts and epoxy the housing. It'll be ugly but will work and save me around a hundred dollars.

I may not be an appliance repair technician, but why fũck around with water and the potential to burst, leak, or flood? Check your PM

Well woes, I had about 1/2 the water pressure last few weeks. Checked the pressure tank and it was good. Went down to the well head and checked the artesian overflow. It was not running. I followed the waterline 75 yards up to our cabin and used a metal probe to check for a waterlogged spot that would signal a break in the line. All good. Called a well company. They came and pressure tested the system. I needed a new well pump. So the well guys pulled 90 ft of well line and replaced the pump. The motor was fine, needed a new impeller and the pump was installed in 1982 so the new rig was needed. The water level in the casing was about 12 inches from the surface and the over flow. Got water again so them 5 gallon buckets can be put away.

Sure it wasn't 2 strips of bacon and 8 shots?
No, you must be right , nobody can stop at 2 strips of bacon.

My Wife brought me some pain pills this morning, a bagel and a heating pad. We picked up two racks of ribs that I was going to smoke for a New Year's, but now it's looking like we may not have New Year's at our house so I may have to freeze them, I have to find some room in the freezer.

I was up at my studio at 4:30 enjoying a pot of Peter's famous bean and a Killer Bee. I saw movement out of the corner of my eye. Something small and brown ducked behind my table saw. I figured a mouse found it's way in. I continued my coffee and my cigar. I saw it again and it was too big for a mouse. Not a red squirrel the tail was wrong. Finally it came out and low and behold a Flying Squirrel. I've had them in my studio many years ago and live trapped them. Now I expect I'll have to do it again. I cracked the door and the critter went out. I wondered what was tearing up the insulation upstairs.

Enjoying a cigar after a long day, I moved my patio setup to the center to avoid the rain which gives me a view into the family room via the sliding glass door, it also gives my dogs a way to keep track of me. They'll look out and see me out here smoking, but it's too warm and comfy inside on the couch under a blanket for them to want to keep me company for long.
I could smoke in the garage where it's warmer without wind but then the HellMutt will retaliate by chewing on something in the family room that she shouldn't be chewing on.
