That is a good point. I got 3/4" LiquidTite flexible non-metallic conduit. Could I just take the sheathing off of the wires and tape their ends together (so the stay together) or twist them together to make them act as one cable without sheathing? NVM. The electrician who posted a video on...

I wonder if they have hybrid generators that can be charged via electricity (be it from wind turbine, solar, or grid) that can also run off propane and gas. That would be the ideal. Propane tanks can rust and leak (seen it happen). Having extra fuel options is a good idea IMO. We have a whole...

Rusty, that is great news. In not so great news, my truck needs new brake pads and the front passenger CV axle is bad. It needs new tires as well. The brake pads won't be so bad and CV axle isn't that expensive but tires are high. Also, friend checked and said the Jet pump is bad. Will be close...

I was looking at a particular kit: https://sungoldpower.com/products/off-grid-solar-kit-20kw-48vdc-120v-240v-lifepo4-30-72kwh-lithium-battery-32-x-440-watts-solar-panels-sgr-20k30e It takes 32 solar panels. Although, I wonder if I could get larger panels instead. But we want to be able to...

I've been busy being pissed off at my power company. We lost power to a storm on Thursday around 6:30pm. They didn't send anyone out to work on it until Saturday and had power restored by 6pm for everyone except me. Literally every other house and the auxiliary fire station had power. Drove down...

Glad you're feeling better, Rusty. I was out for the count yesterday. Fatigue caught up with me. Today I've been a little more active. Called the doctor's office yesterday bc Mom's blood sugar won't come down and we don't have any fast-acting insulin. He squeezed her in for an appointment today...

Rusty, I hope you get feeling better. Never got to nap. But I did take out all the trash. The bag filled with stuff from the freezer was too heavy for me to lift so I dragged it. We got the freezer home. Friend took the old one out and I cleaned up where it had been sitting. Lots of stuff fell...

If you walk in on your own or are brought in by family the ER will put you on the back burner. If an ambulance brings you in, they are more likely to treat you more quickly. However, your race, gender, and insurance also affect how quickly you get seen. Women have lower priority than men when it...

Sometimes the body doesn't self abort. And sadly, they consider removing a dead fetus an abortion- that is how it is medically classified-- so they can't take drastic measures without jumping through hoops. Because of the anti-abortion laws, it is much harder to get the removal done now because...

My friend's wife miscarried at about 5 weeks and she's supposed to be at 11 weeks. The dead fetus inside of her has been decaying and she's been violently ill and throwing up nonstop for the past 2 weeks. Now she has to jump through hoops to get approval to have it removed because removing it is...

ICF with hurricane ties, underground bunker, etc. Went into town to pick up mail and get milk. Wanted to get frozen food but we need to empty out the old freezer and haul it out. Brother isn't up to that and friend is at the hospital with his wife. She miscarried again and they are waiting on...

I didn't know they were able to retrieve the photos and contacts remotely like that. I wonder if whoever has it now will try to sell it to some unsuspecting rube or if they will try to use it for parts. My friend used to unlock phones and help set up used phones for people but he had someone who...

Rusty, sorry about your phone getting stolen. I hope karma gets whoever it was. Glad you were able to get a new phone, but it still sucks losing the old one. CJ, hope you are feeling better today. Samsclub and chinese place yesterday. Today I'm resting and breaking up cat fights. It's been...

I made breakfast for Mom and then went to Walmart to pick up my RX. We both had Chinese leftovers for lunch. I'm about to take a nap.

Rusty, I hope you are safe. My best friend was having trouble with his washing machine and dryer. Both stopped working. He fixed the washing machine, but the outlet/adapter was the problem for the dryer. The Amazon facility in Humble Tx lost the part he needed. The freezer is no longer...

Flooring on the side of the staircase? That's neat. Must be a pita to install that way. Looks good though. Had a nap but am still tired. Neck is sore. Hips are hurting. Earlier when I tried to start napping Gravy Jones was hollering in the kitchen. Boo came and stomped on my head to let me know...

Rusty! Glad you are out of the hospital and feeling better. My mother is back in the hospital. she must have slept through her Dexcom alarm yesterday morning. Bro found her unconscious with the alarm going off. We gave her glucose tablets but she was not lucid. Sat her up and tried to get her...

That 2nd picture looks a lot like my ideas for a handle for my custom lightsaber. LOL.

MSLI I don't know if I have the willpower to go gluten free. LOL. Not as easy to find gluten free options here. Although, I should look up what stuff contains gluten and what doesn't. I hope you get feeling better soon. Rusty, that does not sound like fun at all and I hope you get feeling...

My brain is not wanting to cooperate with me. Highup and CJ have been doing good work. Rusty, sending you love and hugs. 🫂 I hope you get feeling better soon. Been raining a lot. Power went out yesterday morning and didn't come back on until afternoon. Took Mom to get more bloodwork so fresh...
