Afternoon and Happy Easter!
It is NOT raining.
The sun is out.
Everything is starting to dry out.  Smiley

Dinner -- a large eye of round roast -- is in the crockpot and Skywise's birthday cake will be decorated later. Yes, today's his birthday.  Smiley

Dinner is over. All that's left is to put the leftovers away but people may still be raiding the kitchen so I'm waiting for a bit.

Painkiller in my immediate future.
I hate being in pain.

The painkiller worked.
Lot to do today so I'd better get busy!

Getting ready to watch DC's Legends of Tomorrow after which, dishes, cooking and laundry. Last night's leftover roast needs to be made into BBQ for lunch tomorrow. And snacks. And probably dinner on Wednesday.  Smiley

I ended up with a HUGE pot of pulled beef BBQ which is currently sitting in the refrigerator. One load of laundry is on the bed and another is in the dryer. The dough for the pizzas is rising so I'll be doing that soon. Given the hour, I'm heading out.

Everyone sleep well and be safe.  Smiley Smiley

Just took painkiller. I put the three storage units we bought on Saturday together this evening -- which hurt while I was doing it -- and now I really hurt and I still haven't made dinner yet. So the painkiller is so I can do that and hopefully sleep tonight.
Tomorrow, in addition to everything else,  I have to bake a cake for Moonie's birthday....

Currently poking a twatwaffle in one of the Facebook groups I'm in. He's doing the "I know something you don't know and I ain't telling!" elementary school kid thing. He claims his life would be in danger if he reveals what he knows but he keeps on saying he has knowledge that puts him in danger. It seems to me that if he DID have such knowledge, he'd lay low and keep his mouth shut. But no, he's gotta brag about it on Facebook. It's a closed group but still.... So I got fed up with him and called him on it -- logically, of course -- and I may have gotten his goat. He's replied but I haven't looked at it yet. Researching how to home can hamburger is a more important use of my time as far as I'm concerned.

Morning.
This is Sanctuary Control. We have digging.
SCI Fiber is here, earlier than we'd like considering when we got to bed last night/this morning, digging the trench and installing the cable.

Too many gigbytes got used since last night.
Not happy.
Going dark.

Today (the 25th) is Moonie's birthday.
She's spent part of the afternoon and all of this evening keeping the basement from flooding.
I am NOT happy that that was necessary.
The propane tanks were filled today.
The bill for this house is $1,000.
Not happy about that either.
Some changes are going to be made.
We should get the bill for the Old House in a few days as they usually mail that one.

So on that uniformly "not happy" note, I'm heading out. Tomorrow/today should be the last day I have to "go dark" to conserve megabytes.

Everyone sleep well and be safe.  Smiley  Smiley

Morning. I think...
I pulled "night shift" on flood prevention. I was up until 7 am when the water in the drain stopped rising, went to bed and got up at around 9:40 am. My brain isn't fully engaged yet so my memory's a little foggy. We're back from town. I checked the rain gauge before we left. Last night's total was 1.65 inches in less than 18 hours, more or less. As soon as Skywise is on his way, I'm gonna crash. Hard.

Afternoon.
I was so tired last night, I forgot to come in and say goodnight. My bad.
We did our usual Saturday stuff this morning and Skywise has just informed me that the rain has started up again. Oh joy. I was hoping for a few more dry days.......

We were lucky. The water didn't come up far enough to require bailing. I've been researching aquaponics this evening and I'm now heading for bed.

Everyone sleep well and be safe.  Smiley   Smiley

Afternoon.
We were very lucky yesterday, we only got .10 in. of rain -- enough to keep everything wet and muddy but not enough to raise the water level in the ground.
We've made the recycling run and as soon as I can stand on my left leg -- yes, "bad leg day" today -- I'll start on the chores that got backed up while we were on flood control duty....

I hope the saturated ground can handle it.

Barely mobile.
