Day: April 3, 2026

Fri. Apr. 3, 2026 – Good Friday.

Cool and damp, possibly with moisture from the sky. National forecast has Houston on the southern edge of the possible rain and T storms part of the country. We usually don’t get any when we’re there, due to the difficulty of predicting just how strong the pressure from the Gulf of America is. Today is supposed to be pretty much like yesterday, with the area of rain moving south for Saturday, and presumably also Easter Sunday. I hope we don’t get rain, and that the micro climate at the BOL keeps the rain away too, as I’ve got a truck bed full of stuff.

Yesterday was like so many days lately, where I start with a plan, but fail to execute. Most of the day got eaten by other things, like cutting my hair and ebay stuff.

Turned out I didn’t have to hold myself ready to get D2 from school, so I went to the shop and did a bunch of organizing and arranging. I needed to get the shipping dims and weight of a big thing I might have finally sold, and to get to it, I needed to clean. I also assembled 2 sets of metro rack shelves to put some of it on, instead of just stacking it on the floor. If I palletize and ship the items, I’ll finally have room to get the rest of my storage unit cleaned out. All in all, less than I’d hoped, but decent progress after all.

Today I hope to do a trash run, LP gas refill, and recycle the catalytic converters that are in the bed of the truck. Those things are all near each other. Then I can load up with stuff for the BOL and head out. W plans to take the kids up sometime in the morning. Early afternoon is more likely. We’ll spend Easter at the lake, which is becoming a tradition. Everyone seems to want steak for our Easter dinner, so that will be a bit non-traditional, but we’ll hide eggs (more money than candy in them this year) and play some games together.

I’ll have a list of stuff I need to work on, but that might be limited by weather. There is always more to do than I have energy and motivation to do.

That is the story of my life though.

Always be working. Always be stacking.
