I've got 3 dozen chicken thighs that are waiting for the coals to settle a little...I vacuum seal mass amounts of food for future meals...for those nights when I really don't feel like cooking I open up the outside fridge and it's game on...
Yes grilled chicken thighs are the best. 3 dozen should last you for a while
 
Hmmm, something sounds fishy. Walt is gonna pay Me $20/hr to trim......what are his qualifications?

Another break....almost done. Another half hour or so. My frickern hands don't work. I will get through this one way or another.
Walt says he'll do it 50/50; One for you, one for him.......
 
The line runs thru our yard then under our driveway. If the damage is found in the yard can they splice it? He mentioned maybe replacement in the future this would mean we have to bust the driveway up?
They should be able to test that underground wire to see if one of the wires has a break in it (also neutral wire) with a continuity test of each leg (it has 2 wires and the neutral) each leg is carrying 120volts together they amount to 240V , The neutral is the third wire and is needed to complete the circuit. (but Im sure ya hubby knows all this.) If the "break" is able to be located yes it can be spliced right in place after digging that section up and reconnecting it with a new section of wire . And using water proof splice connectors .Under the drive they may need to shoot a new wire and may as well replace the whole run to make sure it does not happen again.
Good Luck

Thanx roster. The power was off all night about 12 hours. They finally fixed it or at least got it working again. the hubby electrician by trade but submarine electricity is different Than house stuff. That’s why I have to change all the light bulbs 🤣. I think they must have spliced it and because this is the third time we have had this issue in the last two years, they put a ticket in for that neutral to be replaced so as you say may as well replace the whole thing so it doesn’t happen again. Just glad the problem was on the electric company‘s side of the meter. So although it was a hot sweaty night glad to have AC back as it’s in the 90s today. Have a cool day roster 💕
 
@SubmarineGirl are you doing this yourself?
My Buddy @joeb631a is an electrician, he may chime in with some of his tricks and secrets to help find the culprit.
No way I would tackle that job myself. I will take on anything mechanical and maybe changing out a light switch or ceiling fan but I would never take on this. Wouldn’t want the hubby to either. We are to old for that…🙂

Good morning big. Hope your day is starting out good. Just got my coffee hook up and gonna have a puff puff pass out on the porch by myself while the hubby sleeps in. Already made my spinosad visit to the outside girls and gave them their daily stroking.
