I do often wonder how you're doing, Vinny - I don't know how you can stay so cool amid all this mayhem

@Aktungbby we are still thinking about what to do, but next thing is the roof and that will be expensive enough. Makes no sense to install anything on a bad roof .. maybe later and with improved technology. Still, a battery with 4,5 kw? How long is this supposed to last when fully loaded, if you add all the consuming devices? We thought about an emergency generator to be driven with fuel or LPG. It would be connected to the electric fuse panel, but with a switch either using electricity from the net, or from the generator. They also come with ATS but then current not bei9ng used is being fed to the net, and for this it would be mandatory to have a special synchronizer to adapt to the net's phases. It is able to generate 8000 Watts continuously and setting to lowest rpm when there is no major consumer. One 20l tank is good for up to 30 hours, so some jerry cans as backup, or propane gas.

Happy anniversary!
Tadaaa! Today is our 42nd wedding anniversary! I remembered to get my bride a card...and we're off to our favorite Napa steakkhouse for dinner. We'll probably discuss our daughter's upcoming wedding next April!!? My inlaws, most of whom are divorced, didn't expect me to last this long!

^ Wasn't »42« the answer on the meaning of life? Shall we congratulate, or just wish "all the best"?
Ok i am for congratulations to the Mrs and you!

The joys of getting a new desk.
Waiting on cable management pieces to arrive.

Been a busy month - just got back from the damp trouser clinic & my plumbing seems to be functioning again. It's been no fun at all. I suppose it'll be my arse next

Welcome to the club; After a member mentioned his own high PSA count a short while back, I was motivated to get a general blood test; and following an 5+ PSA count, have an appointment late in Sept for a scan. (Hurry up'n wait) Throwing in a recent 8hr. ER stint/scan due to an excruciating post-lasagna dinner diverticulitis attack ...as they say: "the plumbing goes first". errr....I'm sinking by the stern!??

Moira says this could've been the garlic, which it seems can aggravate diverticulitis
As for PSA levels, our GP doesn't get too bothered until this goes above 11. I had mine between 5 and 7 for a long time before any further investigations were scheduled

Spending moments of time to design single shot trays for the Evanix line of Air Guns in SolidWorks.
Those designs will be used to 3D print and sell them. |

Reality vs the cinema!
Having a lite shrimp and zucchini stir fry whilst watching th classic 1971 Andromeda Strain starring the recently (4/17/2022) deceased James Olson; in light of the now two year-old Covid pandemic...art meets reality!??...incl. following my own 2-week security stint in 2010 on all scenes from Contagion that were shot in San Francisco! Unlike current reality! the flicks always resolve these matters...in two hours?

Global warming; first hand
A miserably hot day today hitting 111⁰F!! Thoroughly enervating to any septuagenerian. Going out twice in the evern hotter car didn't help...till the AC kicks in. It's a balmy 89⁰ F. as I post this. (10:40 PM.) Tomorrow is forcast slightly cooler; only 106⁰F. The dwelling AC could muster no lower than 81⁰F against a normal thermostat setting setting of 78!
