Day 272 – “Living the Dream”. Thursday, 1/27/2022. We kept blowing the circuit breakers with everything we are trying to run off the old house. So, we bought new led work lights. There are pros and cons to them. They use a lot less power and they are really bright, but the halogen lights give off heat. We used our surface thermometer on the halogen lights and the surface of each light was 730 degrees. The LED light surface is 64 degrees.


Another cold morning 12 degrees at 8am outside and almost 42 degrees in the old house kitchen. Our little electric heater is working hard. Love the Alexa jokes. She keeps me entertained.


The electrical heated water hose to our cabin works great. It works so great that new spring grass is growing along the hose. We are fooling mother nature.


When you hear water running in the middle level bedroom closet, you know that bodily waste is headed swiftly to the septic. You won’t hear it unless you have the closet door open, or you are in the closet. We are calling it the musical closet. At the end of the day, we moved the bedroom furniture, kitchen cabinets and washer and dryer into the sheet rocked middle level bedroom.

I know everyone is looking at the closet ceiling and saying, “why purple sheetrock?”.




No reason except we had extra. After a little work tomorrow around the pantry and sliding glass door it is on to the hardest part of the Sheetrocking – the foyer.
Today’s product recommendation is for the Rev-A-Shelf. I love this for my pots, pans and lids. The one we recently installed is the 21 inches with a spot on the top shelf for the lids. We will also be installing a smaller one for baking dishes. These are awesome. https://amzn.to/3CzOwwq https://amzn.to/3ZcBuyq
