18 December 2018, a day from Mark’s past

Status: We are just beginning to settle in, still there’s a lot that has not been taken care of yet.

Narrative: Got up around 08:00 and had my morning cup of coffee while checking my phone.  Put out the two 50W solar panels with the feet on them to see how they are doing.  Downloaded all the activity on my credit cards and checking account for spreadsheet of my costs this year.

The two 50W panels are producing about 35W each in the winter sun standing almost upright.  (December is the worst month for solar.)

We had to make a run to Marietta to exchange a part for the Wife’s CPAP mask, then we got stuck in a traffic jam on the way back.  Boo!

I took a nap and collected the solar panels from the driveway before sitting down at the spreadsheet of our expenses for hours on end.  I am up to 22K worth of expenses and I am still in a draft of the spreadsheet.

  • To Do List:
  • Burn the wood.  (Sent Doug a message asking his price for the job.)
  • Bug treatments. (Ricky will get a chance first.)
  • Recover password to E-Mail.  (Google flagged the account, Boo)
  • Call Skunky Acres about dogs. (Yes, they will take mom’s dogs.)
  • Make a plan to sort pile in Grandpa’s shed.
  • Cancel Windstream Internet service.
  • Cancel Power company on Farm.
  • Put Christmas play stuff in storage tomorrow at 10AM.
  • Mount the faucet freeze covers.
  • Cover chimney.

Tomorrow:
