    Saint Patrick's Day is when the Irish parade up Broadway and stagger down Fifth Avenue.

    Well, that went to chit rather abruptly.

    Ate some food with a cup of coffee and was feeling fine. Then about 10:30 nausea set in followed by head to toe body aches and every organ in ny abdomen started gurgling. By 11am my body was going into revolt mode. Layed down at 11 and then had to get up and threw up 3 times, seemed like more liquid than I had consumed. Layed back down and managed to fall asleep fully wrapped in a winter blanket. Woke up 25 minutes later in a full body shiver. I sleep with a fan so rolled over and pulled cover over my head and was able to stop shaking and fall back to sleep. Just woke up about 2 and feel a ton better, but still achey. Feeling better and better as I'm about to get back out of bed

    That didn't happen the first time 3 years ago. Not sure if it was a type of keto flu symptoms, no clue how long fasting takes to have that happen, or just a run of bad luck/coincidence.

    Literally like a 4-5 hour flu.

    Here in SE TN, March is unpredictable. March 1993, had 72 degrees on Friday. Friday night, a blizzard moved through and dumped 21 inches of snow, coupled with high winds. Seems this cold weather this past week is the last gasp of winter.

    Thought I was better, after I got up it was very apparent I was not. Just woke back up and going right back to sleep.

    Juncos left and the redwing black birds are back. Robins all over the place, go outside and you constantly hear birds.

    While I was laying awake in bed at 3 am this morning I figured out how I am going to wire the fish house recessed lighting 3 rows 6 lights and rope lights from the front to the back following the curved wall to the floor.

    Any possibility of using solar lighting? Considering it as my storage building is about 40 feet behind the house and would take a lot of wire and $$$$.

    Did you get to sleep after you figured it out. I’ve had nights like that and finally get to sleep once the problem is solved. Usually could have figured it out the next day but just can’t quit thinking about it at night till it is figured out. Maddening!

    Solar will not work for me, because of lack of use. if the batteries drop below 12 volts the panels will not charge and most of my fishing will be at night. I have a quiet generator.

    catching up on this thread.
    Happy spring, everyone!
    Looks like I will be doing some work in MN in April, going to bring my x-bow and panel blind and try to whack a turkey.
