    You are a hard worker and all your efforts have blessed you with a comfortable home. I agree, the old fridge was dangerous and getting rid of it is the right thing to do. You may be able to extend your water usage into the beginning of Winter by purchasing a low wattage insulated heat coil that either wraps around your 1000 liter water tank or hangs directly in the tank and keeps the water from freezing. I have used the internal ones to keep my tanks of water curing concrete cylinders for testing by maintaining 77 degrees F* in outdoor labs for years (1985 to 2014) and never had a problem. I lived in a condo one time where the kitchen plumbing was in the thinly designed front wall. I bought a insulated wrapped low wattage coil to wrap around the pipes and that helped in a Winter of where temps went down to 10 degrees F* (one of the coldest Winters I have ever experienced in N.C.). Cold enough to rupture the waterline in the back wall and flood the living room. Because of the low wattage draw you could probably run it off of the Eco Flow or Jackary generators. Just a thought, you know better. Have a great week!

    • @gypsyjenna
      @gypsyjenna  หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      Thanks Rob. I think the biggest issue I have is the multiple water lines that run along my floor and behind cupboards that don't see the heat from my woodstove so I usually don't chance it as having a pipe or water bust would be a nightmare lol. I just suck it up for 4 months or so I guess. Hope you and Layla are having a wonderful Sunday!

    My Truck 3/4 GMC is 44 years old, in good mechanical condition but the body shows the age. I bought it used while living in Nevada and I moved back home to Houston for 3 years and it started rusting along the doors and other areas. I guess the no humidity in Nevada helped preserve the Truck a very long time. I won't ever buy a new vehicle again but if I were going to buy a Truck it would be another GMC or Chevrolet which are the same of course. You mentioned that ice box again and if it were totally electric there has to be a resistor on the ammonia tube that heats the tube and moves the ammonia. Now if you can see one you can test it with a multi meter and just see if the resistor is opened. If it is opened you have a very easy repair to get it working again and you could keep it for a back up just running it a few hours every now and then to keep the ammonia circulating as it should. The thermostat in the ice box should control the resistor cycling, or on and off.

  • @P_RO_
    @P_RO_ หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Yes it's worth it in the end. The key to being a really good procrastinator is to overdo things when you're doing so you have more time to goof off before you have to do it again 😎 It's far easier to drain a full water tank before a freeze than to have to refill it because it didn't freeze like you expected it do so you're definitely getting it right. Same with getting rid of the old fridge instead of trying to fix it; if it's gone you both have a bit more money and more space.
    Maybe the truck battery just needs a good slow charge- I'd try that before replacing it. Maybe plug it in at a family member's place to save your power. L/A batteries don't like being charged too fast the way an alternator in a vehicle does; often they build up a resistance to charging at the high levels over time but will still accept a slow charge at 2 amps and last awhile longer once they're topped off that way. Don't know for sure but several sources have told me car battery prices have gone WAY up in the last year 😮 Wouldn't surprise me given the high costs of other car parts lately.
    Still slogging through here making zero progress, and wishing I had the ability of my younger years to help. It is what it is and it could be worse. When you have to you do, even when you think you can't, so I'll manage to get through. Tomorrow can be better so hopefully it will be for everyoe😀

    • @gypsyjenna

    Hello Jenna,
    Oh, I'm sorry you're not feeling well. It sucks when you're not feeling up to doing things that need to be done and you need rest but power through and get it done.
    It would be wonderful if winter holds off and you can use your water until mid-December. Here's hoping!
    Ramsey was nice to wait patiently for his fountain. It's funny that Ramsey loves the fountain but Rory fears it. 😊
    Your wood pile is looking good, I hope your back is okay unloading and stacking all that wood. Your family member's heart was in the right place helping you with the wood but I guess he or she didn't know their own strength.
    Yea, that battery in the truck is pretty well shot if it won't even start with a jump. Let's hope it's not the alternator. I hope I didn't jinx it.
    Yes, I think maybe getting rid of the old fridge may be a good idea. I know you have put a good deal of money into it but it's better to be safe than sorry.
    Your cashew meal looked tasty and meal prepping ahead is always a good idea if you have the time. Ramsey said he helps out by cleaning the spoons.😊 He says he earns his keep but Rory on the other hand??? I think Ramsey is still feeling a little salty having to wait for his fountain. 😅
    Anyway, I hope you get to feeling better and please try to get some rest when you can. I know it's nearly impossible to do that when you have to do everything yourself ( Yes .. I'm looking at you Ramsey and Rory) but rest is important too. Please don't hurt your back.
    Take care, be well and have a Happy Halloween 🎃👻.-----Steve.

    I have had great success with inexpensive battery tenders, my lead acid batteries last twice as long as before and are always ready to start.
    Since the farm truck doesn't put on any highway mileage it's battery may not get a chance at a full charge.
    You can get the 120V battery tender versions or powered by a solar panel that you can leave on the vehicle dashboard.
    Some plug directly into cigarette lighter outlets but note on some vehicles the cigarette lighter outlet is only connected to the battery when the ignition is on so check that.
    I definitely recommend the use of battery tenders for vehicles and batteries that are only used occasionally.

    I bought a couple of those pocket pumps a few weeks ago. One like yours, and a second that just shoves in the tank. Did you know that the little do-hoppy thing-a-ma-bob on the side of the pump is a hang up holder for the nozzle? Mine also came with a loop thingy that you use to hold the handle in the on position. Super handy, unless you have more fuel to pump than room for it to go into. Then, it's kinda less handy 😛
    Hope you're feeling better. Your alcohol levels must be too low. You have to keep them up so that it kills all germs in your system 😜
    Today I'm going to get out my diesel heater and see about hooking it up. Using the propane furnace in this place is NOT efficient at all! I'm going through 30lb of propane in about 6 days. Also, I want at LEAST 2 heating options available at all times.
    I'm planning on putting a small, temporary entry way onto the front of my trailer for this winter, and putting a small woodstove in there. I CAN'T WAIT to have a woodstove.

      Wood stove will help big time! Always an excellent idea to have multiple sources of heat too! I hope the install goes well! I wanted a mud room off my front door but maybe one day I can get around to that. Yeah those furnaces aren't the most efficient. The solar panel was purchased with intention of putting it on the roof at my family camp (that's off grid) but my cousin says he is putting one of his larger ones up there so it's been sitting in my shed ever since lol

      @@gypsyjenna - That was a good idea for the solar panel. I guess you'll have to come up with another project for it now then. Would hate for a perfectly good panel to go to waste lol.
      Anyways, I hope you're feeling better. Also, I hope your hopes of not having to winterize for another month come true, because I'm not ready for steady freezing temps yet either lol. Have a great day Jenna

      @colin8532 thanks Colin, I hope the same for you up there as well. I heard we were supposed to get mildish temps right through Nov so here's hoping! Yeah not sure about that solar panel yet, for now I guess it will just take up space in the shed like many other things 😅

    I'm thinkin you need to give us your bosses number so we all can tell him how hard you are capable of working...😂😂😂. I'm also doing the wood stocking for winter for my Dwarf 4kw woodstove....but mine are only 9 inches long. Props to ya....wood dutys are tough on ya!
    Glad to see you are letting the leaves help insulate the skirting for ROCKY and helping to keep his house shed warmer..😂😂😂😂😂.
    Good job...God Bless....Stay Safe
    P.S. The .."Hair style from going to bed with wet hair" was funny..... ya nut!

    If you have gravely or sandy soil where you are you can drive a sand point for around $300 so you won't have to lug water anymore. In the valley tons of people have them instead of a well.

    Was that a propane fridge/freezer..?
    We have one at our family camp on Spectacle Pond, along with the stove and propane lights.
    Lights are kind of a back up since we have a generator.

    Truck not starting could be: Bad battery, not run long enough to keep the battery charged (no trickle charger), bad alternator, corroded or loose connections to the battery.

    Yard Truck Battery: If it's 3 yrs. old or more, it's probably toast. Still, you might try removing the battery and putting a charge on it. It might take the charge and let you get the truck to a better place to park it. If the battery takes a charge and starts the truck easily, you might want to have your charging system checked out.

    Put a tarp up from bottom of hoop house to half way up door. Kinda reverse of normal. It’ll keep on leaves and let in plenty of air to dry out wood.

    This Xmas, ask for a leaf blower and the portable lithium battery jump starter.
    I use the leaf blower to blow off dust, spider webs, and mock on the refrigerator, crumbs in the toaster, sawdust.

    Sorry Sunshine, but since we live alot alike another upgrade you may want to research is an upgrade to your diesel heater fuel tank.... you can plumb an existing jerry can or any 5 gallon ish container to your heater so you don't have to re fill so often !!!

    having a home does keep you moving. the 60 foot 5 foot base multi tree i cut down during high winds that bumped the front 🏡 kept me busy on roof repairs the last 2 days. cant tell it ever hit now 😁
    our pickup truck has been starting slow too.. but its a 1992 chevy so...
    water is one of my chores too. the well died.. dec 26th 2020 i hand pulled up 80 feet of schedule 40 pipe 1& 1/2 round.. VERY HEAVY. it runs off air pumps since 👍
    winter is coming.. not sure of a diesel heater? i need to figure out some added heat 🤔
    you do really well keeping up on things there 👍👍
    i need to get our solar panels up just in time for the sun to hide across the street... lol

    Pretty awesome being able to see how much solar power you're producing. I have the mt50 as well, but I recently upgraded to the wifi app, so I can keep an eye on the power while I'm at work as well. I check it a few times in the morning till I know the batteries are topped off

    If possible id build a building on the outide of the rv n put the woodstove in it. Insulated of course. Throw some indoor outdoir carpet maybe some second hand rugs if u can find any in second hand places. Then u have more room. Id even put a few used rv windows or house ones someones givin away n maybe you can close your batteries in with the build too. I used to rent an rv like yours n it had tat attaced but was propane heat which sucked. I used main trailer for sleepin n cooking. The build on was my livin room ect n heat. Wish i had a stove n that pption. However my daughters friend said i can bring rv there n put a roof above like u. Id need a geni rigt away n a woodstove. Im so not prepared n the batteries both are dead lol. Im not sure if i should let this place go over winter or wait till summer.
