I woke up this morning and after I got dressed, Tres and I went to the back door when he went out to do his business, which means urinate. He stepped out on the back porch and stopped as it was raining. He looked around and decided not to go out in the rain as he returned to the house. The rain is heavy this morning and at this time 7:00am it is not yet freezing. I guess I should wish you a good morning and we are praying that this weather will not be as bad as predicted.
Yesterday: we had some lite rain all day and it was also foggy. I went to the store and purchased some decaf coffee. While I was out and about, I did stop at the Star coffee place for a cup. While I was driving, I learned that the power had gone off at Daves' house, but it was just for a few minutes and the bad weather had not yet started. I made it back home safe and before the rehab lady arrived.
My favorite wife's exercises seemed to go well. While the lady was here, I told her of a text I had received which appeared to be from the company she works for. I noted the first text said I owed $75, and they wanted me to respond, but I did not. If I owe money they can sed me bill. Later I received another text that said I had 1 hour to respond, and I did not respond. The lady said the company she works for doesn't do that, and I should not respond.
Later I did get the kerosene heater out of the carton; it has about a quarter tank of fuel in it. I put a couple batteries in and attempted to light the unit, but it would not lite. I then removed the batteries and got some matches, and I ignited it using a match just to make sure I remember how to light it. It does heat up quickly. I have fuel but I hope we will not need to use the heater.
I also do not want to need to use the generator as it is a lot of work to get it out and get it started. When we run the generator, we only use it for a couple of lights and the refrigerators and deep freeze. We have several flashlights in case things get dark. I am hoping and praying that the bad weather isn't as bad as they predict.
Different topic: Thursdays note I think I had noted that the Ford's ole printer would not print and there was a message that indicated and error, but I had no idea what the error was. Yesterday I was here in the office, and I was working on my bible study homework and I thought, my homework is on the computer and if the printer isn't working, I can't print my homework to take to the meeting. I turned the printer on. As I was sitting there the printer started printing the two pages I had tried to print on Thursday. Wow, it worked without me doing anything other than turning it on. Was it divine intervention? I am going to say yes, divine intervention.
Well, I am stopping now so you can get going. We hope you can stay safe and warm today and don't drive on the ice-covered roads.
Don the Ford
