    Medically dependent on electricity?

    I saw on the news about hurricane Ian where several people died because they lost power and couldn't run their oxygen machines. 😢

    Leaving Tampa, Osprey, Fort Myers ? ?

    We got the shingle changed out no problem. My wife and the boy went up there and did it exactly like they showed in the video. Took very little time for two amateurs. (y)

    Medically dependent on electricity?

    I hadn't even considered that I was such, until I saw it on the news. When hurricane Ian came through, we were okay. Only a tiny power hit and some cable/internet outage. But as I watched the news report, I realized that I am in fact medically dependent on my electricity, specifically my CPAP...

    This is the video we watched. Seems like a pretty straightforward job. I just wish that I could get up there and do it myself. The boy tends to be too rough at times. Teenagers. 😒

    We noticed this afternoon that we have one roof shingle which folded over during Ian and is partially broken. A neighbor gave us a few shingles from his recent roof job, so we went out and bought some sealant and roof nails. We watched a YouTube video on how to replace a shingle. The boy (and...

    We made it through unscathed here. Lucky! The cable TV and internet were down when we woke up, but were restored by 1:45PM and that was it.

    Yep, it's been a stressful few days, but Ian changed direction late this morning and now looks like it'll hit over 100 miles south of us. That really lifted a weight off our shoulders. Back in 2004, I got caught in hurricane Charley and that was a mess. I was living in the Tampa metroplex at...

    We live well north of Tampa and got started with our storm preps this morning. We'd planned on evacuating, but by 1130 or so, the track changed and we eased off quite a bit. Now planning on sticking around since the storm isn't headed right for us. The boy went out to the garage and moved...

    Best homeopathic (???) treatment for arthritis??

    My doc prescribed capsaicin cream; 0.075%. It works quite well. 😀 I use it on my knees, shoulders, wrists and sometimes the backs of my hands. Beats Ben Gay all to pieces. WARNING! This stuff is hot, so use gloves! Don't rub it anywhere really sensitive... you know where I mean! 😧 The Rx...

    22 foot Starcraft, but what model?

    A pair of 115HP Mercury inline 6s would be a perfect set up for that boat! Bolt on and whatnot! :D(y):cool:
