  1. Depending on the state you may get a nice deal. In our previous house we put them in for $13k. Dumped the oil tank and window units. 7 year 0 interest loan. Basically I divided the total by 84 and the payment matched exactly. They worked great but they’re pretty ugly. We were in the current house for 3-4 years by the time I finished paying.
  2. Could be. I’m 78 and at most 10 miles away.
  3. I’m at 74 and rapidly rising. Flipped the heat off and my finger is on the ac depending on how it feels at bedtime. Full shorts and t shirt mode. It’s here!
  4. To my knowledge I haven’t ever had covid. I’m teaching a course this summer and have to get pcr tested once a week. So far neg. Some people seem to never get it...but I’m not sure I’m that person. I’ve been closely exposed often.
  5. I remember the local NNJ reservoirs being down to under 30% capacity at the worst point. My father decided we needed to dig a well-many people were dong that. By the time we reached ground water the drought had broken....lol.
  6. I was in Worcester yesterday most of the day. On the way home around 5:30PM car thermometer was in the 70s until around 128. Today is a gorgeous day. Taste of summer coming.
  7. My lawn looks like crap. Landscapers mower broke and they’re finally due back this week to mow but the lawn looks awful. I’m trying to care but having trouble….
  8. Hope for the best, expect the worst until Father’s Day.
  9. It’s weeks behind. Only now starting to rapidly leaf out. Still some trees with buds that haven’t popped. Awful year.
  10. So my convention center conference had mostly health professionals meaning probably >90% vaxed. But honestly the person I met with traveled up to Boston unmasked and has been traveling around the country. Non symptomatic. I had to get my periodic PCR test this week for my other gig. Negative. Almost a week out and I’m hearing nothing and feeling fine. Who knows?
  11. Did you mean January 2022? I have to say our financial guys are great. Pulling monthly mrd but total is holding its own. Of course we’re in different life stages. At your age I lost and gained a lot and multiple times but it was abstract. Now 50% is income producing gaining guaranteed year to year but I don’t plan to turn it on until my wife is in her 70s at the earliest. Right now with side gigs, pension, ssn, mrd our income is well above what it was before retirement. I went to a meeting at the seaport convention center on Monday. Probably 98% without masks. People are over it and managing their personal risk based on their situation.
  12. Wind isn’t much today. Maybe 10-20 mph but dying down.
  13. Decent day actually albeit chilly. Switch to summer garb later in the week and put away the sweaters. Hopefully the Stein can mitigate the mosquitoes....
  14. Well on Gloucester St it was nice and warm.
  15. Live in the moment. Very nice today. Meeting 2 friends in back bay for dinner. Think I’ll park in Coolidge corner and walk.
  16. Was it last year that Mother’s Day was quite cold but mainly dry? Seems like we may have had frost in the morning?
  17. I had to be up early today for a meeting at the convention center. It was mild and pleasant in the morning but cold and rainy now
  18. Gorgeous spring day today. Feels kind of like an island of spring in a sea of dung though.
  19. One can hope. I’m planning to remove the ac compressor cover tomorrow.
