Thur. Jan. 22, 2026 – don’t be a burden

Cool and very damp. Then at some point it will get cold. Cold I say. Freezing cold. Or maybe it won’t. We’ll see when we get there. Everyone here should be just fine with some extreme weather, and even some outages.

Didn’t get anything on my list done. Yep, good intentions, poor follow through. I spent some time in the rabbit hole of Social Security payouts. I spent some time on auction stuff. Spent the rest of the daylight hours getting my natgas gennie hooked up to the house. Not in any real or permanent way, but it’s safe and ok for now. Still a manual switchover if needed, but less messing around with the gasoline powered 26 year old Generac that I normally use if I have to feed the house.

Today, I’ve got some pickups to do. Well, one for sure, maybe two. Anything else will depend on the weather. If it’s not raining, I can get stuff moved around. If there’s moisture from the sky, I’ll find other things to do. Right. Sure I will.

Hard to be motivated even in the face of pretty certain need. I do have an issue with self sabotage and needing external deadlines to motivate me. It’s something to be aware of and to work on…

Easier to stack.

Get busy!
