Washer repair guy told us to replace the washer as the gear box seal went bad and the oil was on the floor. Gave us a couple suggestions , Maytag, Whirpool and Speed Queen but make sure we had a local repair guy for Speed Queen as they don't do those repairs. Got a Magtag at Menards with 11 % rebate. Lowes had some on sale but they were too small.
I wrote down while sick, 30 casseroles, 30 soups, 30 beef main dishes, 30 pork main dishes 30 poultry main dishes ,etc. As I use that dish I mark it off. Has worked well. I did scan the lists to my computers so I don't have to rethink it again LOL. The hog and 1/2 beef is paid in full.
Took this last week. Snow is starting to go away,supposed to get a warm up to 40s/50s this coming weekend. We will reload the wood and coals then.
Hubby's dad let us know his bowel blockage (cancer) is back for the 3rd time. Then called to let us know Hubby's mom had a heart attack. She had congestion heart failure for years and has had several bad attacks. This time she passed. Miss her but glad she's not suffering any more. Her service is Saturday. His Dad told the 4 kids if they wanted to go to lawyer about her will, that was fine. He will update his the following week and the 4 kids are welcome to go with him.
Amish neighbor's families had 6 deaths in the last 2 wks.
Got our vaccines. Hubby usually has a mild reaction, this time it was me, just achy.
Got the beef freezer defosted,inventoried and organized. Poultry/veggie chest freezer the last one.
I started thawing the largest turkey I had in freezer to can this week, probably will be doing the other 3 between now and Tday as 2 are on the small side. Will make a good size hole for pork that is coming in as it's in the pork freezer.
Hope everyone is well, stay safe
Prayers for peace
Blessed Be
