Repair

ORKED...

Speaking of the tv antenna...the wire had been chewed of all it's insulation in 2 places mouse or squirrel? I never see mouse but I see squirrel daily! So it's working wonderfully not even one shaky channel...Im thrilled..I do need to rescan, but I will do that tomorrow.  Only 4 channels are missing.  I also have to rescan the tv in the bedroom.  I had a spare cable wire in the shed so didn't cost me anything.  

I split some wood for the fire...it always amazes me when I see people in the PNW and Canada barely tap a piece of firewood and it splints perfectly....I'd like to see them split red oak like I have, it will shatter your spine if you're not careful....they have Spruce, and Douglas fir, and Larch.  OMG they have no clue...we have no softwoods here even our Eastern Red Cedar is hard to split...and the Pine is too sappy to put in the fireplace.  

I laugh at them when I see them split firewood they act so manly LoL. Boy when you take a swing at a piece or red oak, you get quite a shock.  Better still let them try some Hickory or Maple...that stuff is hard...

I would love to have some Doug. Fir to burn in my fire...I think Aspen is pretty hard one of the harder softwoods.  So I only split enough for one night and I have 2 pcs left to burn and it's nearly bedtime. I guess I burned 12 - 15 pcs tonight.

I hope to watch Dateline if it's on.  I like the mysteries...I have to go out with the dogs, Floss won't walk and do her business anymore at night if I don't go out and make sure she walks enough to make it happen, she will rush out and back and then have an accident in the house...but when I go out with her and encourage her to stay out long enough to make it happen, then she has no problem....its been raining so I hope it's quit now.  

WONDER

HAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY?

Find a grave was out the rest of the evening at least the rest of my evening.  I finished up what I was doing this morning...I didn't get everything done but I got tired of that and stopped.  Cold Rain today so Im spending another day inside...I have a fire going and it's comfy but not really warm, a damp chill is the worst one to deal with. 

During the same outage my tv digital antenna quit...I really don't know what happened...Ive been piddling with it off and on all day and some of the channels are working.  I did the rescan a couple times, still not getting all the channels it's supposed to get so did the internet outage affect them? Possible. So I have 11 missing channels.  

I wanted to make humus so I tried.  I accidentally burnt my sesame seeds, so it was not exactly great but still tasty. I now need more sesame seeds.  It was a good lunch.  Then I put on my shoes and coat and tripped up to the mailbox to put in an envelope with money to get stamps from the mailman, I don't know if I caught him or not maybe not meaning my stamps wont get left till tomorrow afternoon...to send out those Cards I made  up...I had 4 stamps.  AND did you know stamps are now 58 cents each?  I HOPE Biden can get rid of DeJoy who has tried his best to destroy the Post Office. WHY? Because  he has a special interest in other companies in the delivery service...a Trump leftover that really is stinking up the place. 

One thing that is funking up the whole thing is this..Im not sure how or when it happened, but the postal service is being forced to fund it's retirement plan for years into the future NOW...so it's breaking the bank.  Like they have to have 75 yrs in Advance for the current retirees...I read this somewhere so don't quote me, but it's some unreasonable thing...

One of the Youtubers I follow just lost my interest and of course it's not my business how or what she does in her life I can chose to watch or not...but I sure didn't see this coming.  Suddenly now there is a man living in her van with her.  It's hardly Solo Vanlife now....so I was really left hanging on what to think about that.  She is a young girl  late 30's nearly 40 honestly and just to see her holding hands and the romantic lovebirds strolling down the wooded path is just not where my interest is...so I will probably unsub.  I find couples on Youtube annoying....just like the blogging couples in RV's...Ted and Alice, Betty and Bob, it's like me,  one person is suddenly a 3rd leg...Two's company three is a crowd...lol Sure didn't see that coming at all.  There is all that back n forth-ing when it's couples, "you want this?" "Shall we do that?" Just not my cuppa at this point in my life. OH and he doesn't want to be on camera so now I feel like a voyeurs when I try to see what does he look like? LoL

So very confusing...not sure what I will do.

There is a fugitive on the run who broke away from police custody...he jumped out of an ambulance.  We had that happen to us, we were transporting a guy to a psyche hospital from an ER.  So I was driving and had stopped at a Stop sign, suddenly there was a scuffle in back with him and my partner Kat, she jumped out and chased him, lucky a cop on a bike saw the guy in a hospital gown with am EMT in hot pursuit on foot...and he caught the guy and he made the ride with us to the hospital guy handcuffed to the stretcher...lol What a day that was. What he didn't know is my partner was a training for a triathlon so she could have run all day!!
