Houses closed today. I have contractors lined up for tomorrow to start the renovation. Previous owners came back and cleaned up the leaves/grass. It looks a lot better than I expected - Yahoo! I’ll get a picture when the rain lets up.
Meanwhile, the fun part! Picking paint colors, flooring, wallpaper, curtains. I like where she is going with it.
Blooms all gone now but the buds on magnolia tree gives me hope for Spring!
Oh no! That sounds awful.
Hope you feel better soon!
Latest news is that there’s nothing in them.
Not any more.
Seems to me Melania came over on an H1B visa.
Not sure what her skills might be.

Great! 
This seems fair to me.
Landscape crew showed up after all. Miserable work - cold, wind, mud, snow. Doesn’t seem to bother them - everyone seems quite cheerful.
Trying what may become a new winter tradition. Head downstairs in Sunday morning, figure out what is the oldest thing in the freezer and make something with it for dinner.
This morning it was a pork roast from May and a ham bone I think was leftover from Easter.
Bean soup with ham cooking now.

Those look great!
Honey and balsamic glazed pork tenderloin with roasted root vegetables. I don’t think Sharon used a recipe.
Forgive the plating. I was hungry. 
Good grief. 
That storm is supposed to hit here about 10 PM.
Brought stuff in and covered things up yesterday. Took a little Rosemary out of its pot and stuck it in the ground because my neighbor has one that recovers every year. We shall see.
Landscapers coming tomorrow replace the cherry tree that died, add more rocks, change the grade in one area and add a weeping Norway Spruce as a focal point through the dining room window. Probably waited too long to call them but we’ll see how it goes.
It’s not all that cold yet so it may work out.
It’s coming along. All the greasy work is done.
Waiting for propane conversion kit. Seller tells me that if it doesn’t work I can send it back.
He’s Piano Dad!
Oh my. Charging a battery that way is a terrible idea.
If you want to charge it you need to buy a battery charger made to do that. 100s of sellers on Amazon, $10-20, none made by any company I’ve ever heard of. I wouldn’t trust any of them to save $2 on a battery.
But if you decide to buy one and try it, I’d suggest you try it in your driveway far away from anything flammable as possible.
Or just buy a replacement. ```
