Morning gang. It’s that time of year. Time for me to swap the lightbulb in the basement bathroom out for a heat lamp. I hate cold, and this basement is not heated.
I have the kids today, was going to cut firewood but won’t be able to now. Might be able to cut the grass when the baby goes to sleep. Should be the last cutting of the year. All we have are weeds growing.
I leave my fields uncut till spring. Try to leave some food source for the rodents and birds out there. My neighbor cuts his five acre field like it’s his yard 😂
Get yourself a heated toilet seat. You will thank me. My basement bathroom is not heated and my wife unplugged the heated seat while cleaning. I didn’t realize it hadn’t been turned back on until I sat down and my testicles hopped up out of my scrotum.😁

What you are calling stress, the root cause is attachment. By that I mean you invest too much energy into expectations from your imagination. These imagined expectations are not how things are. For example, fear or anxiety is always for the future. If you keep your mind in the present, there is no anxiety to happen. I had to make the change myself. I can tell you the answer is not in a medicine, or anything outside of yourself. Let go. Retire from all that bullshit. You no longer give a fuck.

good morning all you Cool Cats

42 and lite rain here

this pneumonia is a different kind of illness for me , I’ve had colds before , allergies , and the flu

this wheezing and rattling of the chest accompanied by lots of coughing trying to expel the phlegm wears me out , dizziness , no strength , and a runny nose

but damn , this coffee and fudge sure tastes good

because of the pneumonia , my consumption of cannabis has been limited the last 30 days , so much so that I am now remembering some of my dreams

weird dreams too

we will be going to Harbor Freight store soon as they open , 8am , to buy a generator that goes on sale as part of the Black Friday bullshit , will save about $400 bucks on a 3200 watt dual fuel generator

I asked the salesperson why would I buy their generator instead of a Honda generator and he said because the Honda generator would be about $3-4 thousand dollars more

that was a good answer and I told him we will be back Monday morning

moar coffee!
NOPE
Cant beat a honda using gas especially since you will def use it more,
Its not like in NY you have a lot of weather to contend with .
Shave off some of your gold or sprinkle some bitcoin money FFS!
Check out generac
If each dollar counts I understand ,but if not do it so its less on you
8kw generac propane ,Get a big ass propane tank which could be used for heat.
Automatic transfer is a beautiful thing
A heater option for the generator in it for your cold temps.
Swede does not have to do nothing.

I’m not spending $100 on a heated seat. I did look at them though. I’m way to cheap for that

all good points Amigo , appreciate your feedback…

this generator is temporary until we get the hookup permits for regular electricity

the tiny home has a four prong cord that Is connected to the breaker box

all we have to do is plug that house cord into the generator and we will have a temporary power source to charge our devices , run the microwave , and turn on the LED lights…

the small fridge freezer is a dual propane electric unit

the washing machine is manually operated

the cookstove is propane and we have a small electric oven , just the right size for cooking a pizza

right now we want to stay off grid as much as possible , boon-docking it for awhile

the Generac starts out at about $15,000 and that exceeds our budget right now , unless we sold some precious metals or crypto which we do not want to do right now while we are in a bull market and making good profits…

so yeah , we like living off grid right now and are having fun so it’s no biggie..
❤️💪🏻👍🙏🏻🫶🏻
