The Original Old Farts Club

[NewbOldster]

Explain.....

I live in suburbia. Only privacy I get is my house backs to a green belt and golf course. I have to be extremely careful to keep my grow in the basement a secret. Carbon filters need to be replaced on a regular basis, trash disposed of discretely. Used soil goes in the veggie garden and I don't allow many friends over. Nosy neighbors. Most of my neighbors are retired and love to gossip.

I'm like you, but no golf course. Just the ugly side of a neighbor's crackerbox house where there used to be woods. >:-{

Hey ya'll...it's dark and cloudy expecting rain any time...Dang greenhouse has been held up, said mechanical break down on the tracking site. Sitting there for three days, now it's only 40 miles away. I guess it won't make it until tomorrow, of course it's supposed to rain...I have a tarp, I hope will cover it.
Wife just found out she has a torn rotor cuff, been in pain for a few weeks, and to the docs three times...they just found it. I wouldn't be surprised if it means surgery, she may end up retiring early, instead of December.

Ouch!

Ours is programmable, and I just let mama set the temps.
She prefers it warmer, but she also pays the utility bills, and she's a miser.

You can keep the cold sheet.

I can program mine for the whole week but I don't. To easy to change it when I need too.
I can lay my ass right here in bed and turn it on or off or cold or hot. Easy peasy.

I remember 30 years ago living with a Woman who had two daughters.
I put 2 $150.00 chronitherm set back stats.
The heat would come on at 5 am go down at 8 am go on at 2pm after school go down at 10 pm and start over
When the heat was needed it was on.
All the girls did was jack it up high then leave .
waste of $
Now those girls are women now with homes of their own and sure as schitt they dont do that anymore.

Do you have the Nest thermostat

I like the nest thermostat.
Some times I had to bring a wire from the boiler control common to the stat.
Most That I had installed didnt need another wire.
work great and easy to see

Thank God my furnace issues are hopefully behind me. I think I have it set at 65 from 8 PM to 6:30 and 72 during the day. I do like the humidifier! It is set at 40%. NO MORE portable humidifiers to deal with anymore.

Thinking I will start beer thirty a bit early today.

What up trouble makers? Been sick to my stomach, thinking I stirred up my hernia. Other wise doing pretty good. I go back to the doctor tomorrow and hope to get my outpatient therapy.
