Started having scattered rain drops, nothing really guessed at for 9 hours or so. Til then random scattered droplets perhaps.
OOOHHH NOPE! Guessers are in error 8-9 hours early the randoms are closer together both horizontal and vertical and sounding as light rain on roof

Update on my dad. He was moved out of ICU last week. On Friday, he was transferred to a rehab facility in Tulsa for physical therapy. On Saturday, he walked with a walker for the first time in 6 weeks. He no longer requires O2. He still has to have dialysis 3 times per week with the hope his kidney function will return on it's own. Thank you for your prayers. PTL for his improvement.

Quick back story: Dad had a diabetic ulcer on his foot that became infected. The infection reached the bone (not good). The high powered antibiotics caused acute renal failure, which caused fluid build up in his body, which caused him to almost suffocate to death. I went to see him late one night (not in ICU at this point), he was gasping for air, my wife and I grabbed the nurse. His O2 was 71!!! He was put on Bipap that night. He was in ICU the next day and started dialysis. Prior to ICU they were not monitoring any of his vitals. The nurse said, "He has been gasping all day!!!!"

Thanks again. I look forward to breaking some of y'alls stuff again some day...

Morning everybody

We got just over an inch last night, still looks like we're going to get some more today/ tonight.
Thank God for the rain!


Edit:
I lied, the kids just checked the gauge... we got close to 5" not " just over an inch"......
Guess I should be a professional weather guy......

Can't like the back store, but glad he is doing much better. Stay strong dad and fight the good fight.

Rain started early an at times was heavy. Playing drum on 1/2 MT plastic container, left at just the right spot on the the filter 20221025_121537.jpg screen on the bbl. Bbl in place to get rain water from gulley at junction of 90° peaks of roof. It was just ,this too close ,as Max Smart may indicate.
Rain stopped to give photo op and then restarted as I was pouring another cup of coffee. 7cm then, which is just under 3"

Learn something new everyday.
I bought and installed a flue damper in my stove pipe. Have seen them for years in other folk’s flues. My Grandmother used one in her stove. It dawned on me that with my current stove I should get one for it. If I really fill it up it will go into an over burn according to my flue thermometer and I don’t want a flue fire. I clean the flue every year but fire worries me.
Started a fire this evening to see how well it works. Got up good and warm then closed the air down and closed the damper. In just a few minutes it was back down to the bottom of the normal fire range.
