    My cold tolerance has been on a decline since my late 20s. I also don't feel like spending seven thousand dollars on home heating oil this winter. I'll be a fucking pussy. I'll be a shaved fucking pussy.

    i've never been the type to be cold. but one of these meds i'm on, i get cold easily now.

    Family in Sarasota is all safe with appears to be mostly minor damage.

    The house on the bay never flooded - water never surged for them. In Helene it destroyed their boat dock and pool / hot tub. 

    Lots of trees down and debris and shingles gone and facia off but all fixable. No broken windows from what I know. 

     

    all sounds positive.

    I saw 48 on car digi temp reader thingy.

    Beautiful stretch of fall weather incoming. 

    We are lucky to be able to enjoy and not worry about being wiped out.  Thoughts and prayers to all in the path of Milton (my uncles name as well -  first time I've ever heard of it outside of conversation about him (he passed when I was 3), and Milton Hershey.

    I had 54 when i left the gym at 6am.

    I just read a headline that fuel oil prices are expected to jump 10% because of colder weather expected in the Northeast and Midwest. 

     

    Did I miss something? I thought winter was already punted. 

    always an excuse. Someone farted in Russia, oil prices to skyrocket

    My dearest Hanlore, 

    One week has come since the skies became dark. A week since the large ball of fire was put out like a see-gar on the ashtray of existence. And I long for your embrace. Or maybe I long for the warmth of the sun. My crotch continues to itch and I spend the majority of the time I am not writing to you going through my hairs with a small brush. I still wonder if you were truthful when telling me you did not stray beyond our matrimony whilst on your voyage to Buenos Aires. I take you at your word, but the itch is neverending. 

    Oh, my love, I miss with the same continuity the lightest of drizzles has enveloped the atmosphere since the sun last shone. I just hope this infernal itching will subside. 

    All my love, 

    Nooners

    for the longest time i thought you did drugs, but now, now i just think you're just F'd up like me

    yeah, this is a nice fall day to me as well.  Hoping the cabin has a bit more color this weekend as it seems like we are a wee bit ahead of peeping schedule.

    i like these days too, however its messing with my walking schedule. 

    Isn't it to be this way through weekend?

    Week four of Jr. High Football sent my anus to Claysburg-Kimmel High School, which may be the nicest Single A football stadium in the state. Although they've spent probably 3/4 of a million dollars on artificial turfing EVERYTHING, they have such a small set of visitors benches that they roll out... in the middle of the infield of their baseball field. 

     Dimensions: 300 to both left and right, 340 to left centre, and a diabolical 470 to right centre. 

    This field hosted a state playoff game last year with Steelton Highspire. I don't know how they were able to house the amount of people I would expect the Rollers would turn up. 

    I spent tonight knowing I could turn a double play if I needed to. 

    As for the weather, it was dreary and cold with a constant drizzle. Such misery.

    My oil furnace was installed by prior owner in 2018 and ac in 2017. I  was seriously thinking about getting a heat pump or heat pump and gas furnace, but the numbers after estimates don't work i.e. $ savings vs. cost. So I'm just going to wait for them to die before replacing them, providing I don't die first! Lol

    The thing I don't like is that the oil furnace requires a chimney vent, so when it gets windy, even though there's a draft damper on the system, there's still a draft effect as from any chimney. My house is sealed well, with that the only weak spot, so I hoped to fix it but it just makes no sense financially for the little bit of air infiltration from the chimney. So the final plan is to replace the ac unit with a heat pump should the ac fail, which would save on oil with temps above 35 degrees.

    I'm fortunate that my family is talented. We started at 7 am and had it pumping  air by 1pm, which included tearing out the old and installing new, plus the duct work modification from old to new.

  10. Installed new HVAC system in the original part of my house on Saturday. Ducted mini-split heat pump. Will be much more efficient then the 30 year old AC unit. My forced hot air oil will now become backup only, but doubt it will ever run. We use to burn less than 50 gallons a year during heating season. i'm looking for a serious reduction in my elec bill.

    I feel like a truck hit me, backed up, and hit me one more time. I literally had to take a break going up the stairs of my house. Id love to get back to work soon, but I can't like this.

    sorry man. Hope you're feeling better soon. Though we didn't have same thing, took me 3 months to fully recover.

    I'm back and I learned an important lesson. Never ever go to a dentist for a root canal. I did so last Monday. I went to bed Wednesday not feeling well. Woke up 2 am soaked, in pain, and barely able to think. Lucky I was at my parents with my daughter cause I barely remember calling 911 and waking them. I awoke next sometime Friday evening in the ICU, it's all blurry. Sepsis sucks and comes on fast. I'm lucky

    Not good man. Glad you are getting better. Sepsis sucks. When i was sick in may, i was septic. One of the biggest side affects is fatigue. I'm still not right. Good luck.

    Light rain in Harrisburg. looks like we don't break 70 again today
