We want to say good morning, but it is so cold (17 degrees) I can hardly talk. Ok, you are correct, I am not talking I am entering data so I can state "good morning". We got something white in the ground and roads here in Hewitt. I have not been outside, so I do not know if it is snow or sleet. Look at the photo and you can decide.
At about 11:00am I decided to go to the cracker store and get our lunch yesterday. There was almost no one there. I spoke with the manager and asked if they were going to close early or not. I was asked how the streets were and I explained that they were ok and not icy yet. They said they might close before 4:00pm. The food was good and I used gift cards I received at Christmas, so someone else paid for the meal.
When I was reading from my bible study book it came to me that I should take a break. During the break I thought, I should fill the kerosene heater because it is only ¼ full of fuel. I went into the garage and got the fuel and a hand pump. I filled the tank with Kerosene and then I let go of the hand pump and spilled some fuel. The hand pump works good if you keep hold of it. The smell of the kerosene came into the house. I will be more careful the next time I add fuel.
I called my yard man Alex and asked what he was doing yesterday afternoon. He responded with nothing so I asked if he would come over and rake some leaves and mow the back yard. He said he did not think so as the grass was all wet. I noted that the grass was not wet, it was frozen. The temp was 25 degrees, and I noted I was just kidding him.
At 5:00pm we did not have any rain, snow, or sleet and we hope it stays away. The three stooges start at 5:00pm and I watched some of the ole crazy shows.
We will stay inside today and try to stay warm, we hope you have a good and warm day and that we all stay safe in all we do.
