    Melody, we run two dehumidifiers in our basement to keep mold and mildew away.
    I hope things are going better for your daughter.

    Sorry about that flu! It seems like so many people have something this month. Hope it disappears soon.
    Daughter will need laparoscopic surgery to remove a non-cancerous cyst. I see a trip to occupy myself with granddaughter in my future. And give her mom a chance to rest.
    Yes to elk pics!

    Good the cyst is non cancerous. I’m sure that is a big relief.

    I also run a dehumidifier in the winter months. Our house is pretty air tight with triple pane windows and moisture can be a problem in winter.

    Will try and get a pic of the elk but they are pretty alert and on the move quickly if I even open the door to get a peek at them when they are across the road. They must have excellent hearing. Will try!

    Big storm dumping snow/freezing rain next two days. Antibiotics kicking in and I am finally getting better. Longing for sunshine and hot days, but grateful to be safe inside a warm home during a winter storm. So glad we don’t need to go anywhere on treacherous roads and saying thank you prayers we still have power. Many are not as fortunate.

    We need a new basement dehumidifier. There is a difference of opinion about whether we would need to run it in winter.
    Traipsed in the snowy woods today for an hour. Thank God for YakTraks, or I would never leave the house in winter.

    I hear you on the difference of opinion 😊
    We couldn’t live in this house if we didnt run dehumidifiers year round.
    I admire your dedication to walking in all weather. We are under ice here. I do have Yaktrax, but dont take any chances since my osteoporosis puts me in a high risk group. Can’t risk a fall. I tried to make myself do one of Leslie Sanstone’s indoor walks but just lacked all motivation. Maybe tomorrow. I miss my old dogs who forced me to get out and walk 4 times a day.
