Heater fan stopped on the Beast. Called the mechanic who is changing the oil and fixing the the heater fan on the Suburban. He tapped on the heater fan and it started. He is going to drill a hole in the end and put a couple drops of oil in it. I'm going out in a bit to tap on the Beast's heater fan.

Daughter's "new" car didn't want to start a couple days ago. The battery is charging in the garage. I'll put it in later to see if that is the problem.

Been a year for car batteries here also

Thanks for the coffee Slim

The Government decided at 0300 and again at 0400 i should know there is a winter storm warning in place for tomorrow. Then it was a computer voice not a warm, english first language human.

Morning all.

Currently 22, wind chill to 5. Mostly clear skies, though it's supposed to cloud over by noon. The disembodied voices on the radio aren't calling for it, but I'm expecting snow.

Got the Beast's heater fan working by tapping on it.
Put the battery in the daughter's car and it started. It appears to be the factory battery; 2012. We'll see if it keeps working.

Went up and down the driveway with the Beast to pack it down some so the 2WD cars might get out, since the tractor is at the mechanic's getting new back tires and rims.

Tapping on it might work for a while, like tapping on a starter motor can. Eventually on my farm truck, it would still run, but not without squalling.

Having some internal issues, vampire drained me this morning, and this afternoon, if they can schedule it, I get to drink some dye so thy can scan my innards.

probably the same stuff. Tomorrow, have to fast 8 hours first, so starting at 7AM. No problem with that, everything that goes down ends up hurting. Tired of layin' around though. Went out to my loading room and got down my box full of Lois L'Amore paperbacks I never have time to re-re-re-read anymore. Ironically, tonight's entertainment was "Passin Through", which is what food won't seem to do. Just stops in the middle somewhere and hurts.

Thanks for the coffee-

We survived the rain and flurrie mix, now temps are dropping. Iwill adventure out to feed the birds and squirrels a little later.

M2 sounds like your project is moving along. Will you be starring in a diy series soon?

Afternoon all.

Currently 22 degrees and sunny in Billings. Supposed to be 11 tonight. That's what it was last night though, and I don't like reruns, so I may call the weather channel and ask for a different program.

Heading to that place where they keep heavy things and treadmills in a little while. Try to get back into something resembling "good shape," whatever that ends up being.
