The storm track has moved east of predictions from yesterday. Looks like its heading straight through your area WM. It will be east of me now so I will not be spared much either seeming the worst winds usually are on the north east side of these storms.

I can make it happen. “Whole house generator for Veteran in need”. Live music, food, drinks, motorcycle ride, etc.

Well, in your defence, you're gone quite a bit now it seems. So..... very little change.
I fail to see her issue. 😔

If you pair it with a shiny new shop vacuum for the ashes you're sure to be golden.....
(I may have told this story previously, so forgive me if I bore some)

our first Christmas together I bought her a vacuum cleaner and "accessory pack" cause she had been saying she needed one,,, we were living on a Staff Sergeant's pay in 1985 and it was a little tight,,, so there weren't nothing else,,,

shortly thereafter (like real shortly) she was sad/grumpy/ill about that - said it wasn't that I got her a vacuum, but that I didn't get her anything else (something sweet I reckon),,, me in my manly stupidity said "but I got ya the accessory pack",,, made her madder (go figure),,,

she still brings that up to this day when she needs it,,,,

learned a hard lesson that first Christmas,,,

Last spring I bought the tedder and mine say she’s been wanting a new washer and dryer so I order her the one she wants the same day I inked the purchase order…

… I’m still in trouble for buying her what she wanted. 🤷🏼‍♂️
The problem is the Male practical mind takes things at face value and tries to use that practical knowledge for dealing with a woman. Most likely a woman says she wants an appliance when she really means she needs the appliance. I have learned to never get a womans needs for gifts because that should be an every day sacrifice purchase as the duty of the man in a relationship. A suitable gift is something you heard mentioned 6 months ago in a fleeting conversation that she has completely forgotten or something seemingly out of reach financially and a complete surprise that enforces the fact that you have listened to every word muttered since communication began the first day you met
