Freezing rain and over 100 power outages for Ottawa hydro, so not today. Kid’s car looks like a Winterfest ice sculpture.

Anybody else live where they put down small black gravel instead of or with salt? Doesn’t appear to take motorcycles into much consideration.

I don't have the knowledge of trucks to confirm or refute your statement about Ford vs Chev vs Dodge. My father did have a '63 Chev with the floor rusted out that would start up and run fine in the worst snowstorms. Just watch out for puddles. I also have an almost retired contractor friend...

I had a former Stormtrooper doing my iv. Apparently, my veins were Rebels.

Boys really liked Turks and Caicos, the eleventh Province. I think we were at a Beaches all inclusive. What sort of activities is the family into? Scuba diving and snorkeling was big there, as well as food camp. Boys would go to one restaurant, have a meal, and then have a different meal at...

Second eye is done. I can almost read this site’s tiny font on my phone with the newest eye. Couldn’t yesterday after the operation and to the left eye it looks like Arabic or some kind of beautiful script language.

Cataract lens replacement. Sucks getting old, but stuff is getting better and better, and sounds like less expensive, as well.

Left eye is done, right is in a couple of days. It’s weird being able to read book titles across the room with that eye, but no longer be able to read the book. Right eye will be trifocal. Supposedly, I will be able to read the dashboard. There wasn’t any pain really just pretty lights on...

Do you mean 400k or are you hard on your vehicles?

Snowblower runs without leaking. Only thing now is the connector for the wire that makes the thing blow keeps vibrating off. I’ve temporarily fixed it with duct tape. Might try some blue loctite. I’m not sure why it wasn’t vibrating off before.

I messed up the float bowl o ring in the snowblower. Couldn’t find one in the snowstorm at Home Depot, where I bought it, or CT, so I’m trying some gasket maker on it. Wish me luck. Will check for the appropriate gasket tomorrow at another place, if the weather permits.

Thirty cent spread here, but it gets updated less than regular. $1.37.9 is from ten a.m. Regular right now is 1.06.9 at Shell where CAA gets three cents off. For regular I find that the price drops about ten cents from morning until night. Premium I normally put in a gas can after running...
