Backaches, Bimbos, and Breakups

Bear traps out front. Lol. Almost nobody comes here. It's like a five alarm fire if someone comes up the driveway that we aren't expecting.

Yeah - car heaters. What we do is either three or four: Engine block heater. Oil Pan Heater. Transmission heater, if automatic. Plus battery blanket or pad.

If you want a car ready to go at any time, which we don't, it takes a lot of electricity. Otherwise it's three hours at fifty to sixty below before you can start them. I can put a propane blast heater on and do it in an hour, but that's also a pain in the rear covering everything up and watching so it doesn't catch your vehicle on fire.

Pics please!

is that a squat toilet in japan? noooooooooo...

Lol! I wouldn't be crossing my legs while squatting!

I lived a couple of places like that in which you are totally flipping out if someone is driving up.

3 is probably excessive for here because I think compared to let's say Fairbanks, we run about 10-12 degrees warmer on average. Last winter being an unusually cold one as far as I can tell.

I mostly just need my husband's ready to go for when he leaves for work at like 3am. I stay up late, so I can always plug it in a little while before. If I need to go on a rare trip to the big stores, then I can prep for it. Else than that, the emergency/health clinic, supermarket, and school are all within walking distance.

At least the previous owners had the good sense to put in new outdoor outlets for both front and back parking (the only new wiring we've got). There is a switch inside the house to turn on the one for the driveway so you don't even need to go out into the cold to do it! I seriously just figured out that's why it has a switch.

Bear traps out front. Lol. Almost nobody comes here. It's like a Many alarm fire if someone comes up the driveway that we aren't expecting.

Yeah - car heaters. What we do is either Many or Many: Engine block heater. Oil Pan Heater. Transmission heater, if automatic. Plus battery blanket or pad.

If you want a car ready to go at any time, which we don't, it takes a lot of electricity. Otherwise it's Many hours at Many to Many below before you can start them. I can put a propane blast heater on and do it in an hour, but that's also a pain in the rear covering everything up and watching so it doesn't catch your vehicle on fire.

Good grief, sigh man, and I speak not just of the transgressions in Polish Math, no man.

How's the mouth feeling, huh man? And the leg, huh man?

Good attitude !

Do you have a good attitude, and are you a rubia, huh and huh ma'am?

Thank you thank you.....I'll post pic later.....

Fotos or she, first day, and your thanks never happened, si and no man!

As I said aloud to myself way back in the year Many, after having moved from a midwestern state to a southern state: "There is no need to stay in the Midwest and be cold, no man!", si man.

I still vividly recall the weekend of January Many-Many in the year Many, si man. On the Saturday, there was Many inches of snow, fall man, and on the Sunday there was blowing & drifting, windy man. It took me and a buddy Many hours to clear Papa & Mama T-B.'s driveway, sigh man. Then, the city snowplow pushed the contents of the street onto the driveway apron, grrrr and brrrr, man.

Nothing personal to anyone here, but, per the above and by virtue of personal hindsight, I honestly can't fathom how or why anyone would want to live anywhere where there's wintry weather. It is much more pleasant to sweat like a baastard all the time, see here man. Texas Many, Nueva York below-zero, si man.

Thursday report, see man:

Slept right through alarm this morn, zzz man.

Saw no traffic cops on commute in; they're toying with me, ticket man.

Was reasonably productive in selling pre-owned toilet seats, seat man.

Mini-B. had another fun day at preschool, wee man.

Mama T-B. gave him some roller skates, knee pads, & a helmet, doting grandma man.

Took roaring postprandial nap, zzz man, but without cat, no miu man.

Cat's wrapper disappeared from plain view on floor where we'd left it, sigh man.

Cat appears disappointed and offended, miu man.

Cat is usually all over me at this hour but is asleep on bedroom floor, curious man.

Didn't dish the warsher on Wed. night so had to do it tonight, too much silverware man.

Breaking strict Mon-Wed-Fri-Sat warshing schedule portends disaster, sigh man.

Mrs. T-B. has curious usage patterns of table implements, she man.

One day it's every fork in the casa, then tablespoons, knives, etc., weird man.

This time, it was spatulas, no explanation man.

It's always teaspoons, expectation man.

Shall de-dish the warsher imminently, domestic man.

Found 2 GSs and 1 ES for the weekend, slim pickings man.

Could do the ES tomorrow morn but might leave all for Saturday, efficient restraint man.

Supposed to rain again on Saturday, however, sigh man.

Must also mow lawn, growth man.

Might try to mow after work tomorrow, hurry home man.

Mornin', Commie-babes, Singapuras, husbands, et al. man!

You know, I've always thought anyone who'd live south of the Mason-Dixon or in California completely and utterly daft. Firstly, the Southern states are much much too hot. My skin feels like it is burning alive when it hits 85....

When I told people we were moving to Minnesota, one of my relatives was like, "why don't you move to Florida, houses are cheap here too?"

1. Houses are cheap, but there are no jobs

2. Florida

3. Hot weather

4. Humid and hot weather

5. I went once in summer and it was seriously oppressive to walk just from a car to a store - I have no doubts on why the South is so obese compared to the North

I realize California has cooler areas, but I've never met a person who I like who chooses to reside there because they actually like it.
