Dude ! we haven heard from you since Sunday
I pray all is well there! Iowa right?

We’re drowning in ice. But we have NO snow. So it’s not even enjoyable. It’s so warm here for an Iowa winter. 11* right now. The high is 22*.

I am stingy with my PTO hours. I haven't been here a full year and like to have 2 weeks in the bank at all times. Plus, most of my stakeholders are out, so I can get some work done !

I was up at 5:30. Got the pressure canner loaded with 7 quart jars of chicken leg quarters and rice by 6:30. Just turned it off. Got another 10 pound bag to do. I get 7 quart jars per 10 pound bag of leg quarters. Dogs go crazy for it mixed with their kibble. They lick the bowls clean. Better than dry food that they eat a little and walk away from. Then ants get in it, or the sheep eat it or it just gets old and they don't want it anymore. So canning chicken for dogs it is. I buy leg quarters on sale.

I dump a quart jar into a half gallon jar and add water to thin it down. Each dog gets 2-3 big spoon fulls in their food and I mix it up. Works for me!

Now got to let it cool down, unload and reload 7 more jars.

I get it - and don't blame you a bit. I was stingy with mine too. In fact, I was so stingy that I actually left some on the table when I retired. I literally couldn't use up all the time I had accrued when I discovered I could get out of there earlier than expected, lol!

Cold this morning! I usually stay home but DH asked me to help at work. It's nice to be useful. Not so nice to wake up early on a cold, dark morning. I don't know how DH does it.

Settling in to hopefully get some writing work done.

if this is the inside of your house, I am EXTREMELY jealous as it looks like my dream home.

Morning all-- -4 deg F but feels like -25 deg F here this morning, gonna be cold doing chores. Next 3 days are going to be bad with actual temps in the negative teens but then next week is in the 20s. January is knocking on our door

good morning, no its just a google dry cabin pic I found last year,
we did live in an off grid cabin back in the 80's
this is our current cabin, a bit dark until the sun maybe comes out,
