    Only got about 4 to five inches of snow here on top of ice. My dirveway is over a 1/2 mile so it can be a lot of fun. I have a walk behind dr with a blade on it so it is usually not too bad but it is still a work our with the hills. Then there is the rest which I have to do by hand. Just glad I was off.
    Went up to the truck this morning and cleaned off the truck and the deck. After I removed the snow, it is still a solid sheet of Ice. I hope some of it gets melted off before next wednesday.

    I just came home from the walk in clinic in Conway. They gave me a script for Doxicyclene and those pearl things for cough and to keep taking Mucinex. I'm going to stay home yet again today and go out tomorrow.

    Started having an issue with my microwave. It would not run for the entire 4 minutes. It would kick off from time to time. It got more frequent and now it kicks off right away. My coffee maker will still work on the inverter. When I got the microwave home, it worked with no problems on the house current.
    It is just a small 700 watt...the smallest you can get at walmart. Any suggestions?

    You do run the truck when you're using it...don't you? If not then try that. I always start my truck when I get ready to use my microwave and shut it off when I'm done.

    Yes, I always run it for the microwave or it will start beeping like crazy. This just started with the microwave. I even tried it after I had driven the truck for two hours straight, so I knew the batteries would be charged. It did not run for 5 seconds before it shut off...the microwave....no signal from the truck.

    Hey guys, sorry to bust in like this,but.......where's all the glass haulers at? I believe seewheeler is the only one on here, and he isn't glass div anymore. I'd love to keep up with glass. Right now, I'm still waiting to hear for sure from Jeff B, recruiter.

    I have the Rival 0.7 cu. Ft microwave from Wally World. It's 700 watts and fits of the shelf above the frig opening. I don't know how long I can run it with the truck off but 4 minutes isn't a problem. I know they (Freightliner) were having an issue with batteries sitting around too long before being installed in the trucks. Check with service the next time you are by the shop.
