Day: April 12, 2026

Sun. Apr. 12, 2026 – more rain? More work certainly.

Probably mid 70sF with the possibility of rain showers, and even T storms. Like yesterday. Although the rain was localized and sporadic, with periods that were almost nice in between. Definitely April showers. Still pretty nice for Spring.

Did sleep in a bit, and then did some stuff. Auction stuff first, then a couple of estate sales that had stuff I wanted to look at. I spent the afternoon doing that. Did score some boots that should resell in the $300 range, which made up for not finding anything made of silver.

Took one load from storage to the shop. If you have the chance to pick up Metro (wire) shelves, avoid the kind with “quick adjusting” clamps for the posts. If they are missing, they are a LOT more expensive to replace. Grainger had the best price and they were still about $12 per shelf. The classic style is available from many sources and is much cheaper.

Spent the evening doing mileage for taxes. Ugg.

Today should be more home stuff, working the list. And more mileage paperwork will definitely be on that list. Near the top if W has anything to say about it, and she does…

Other than that, it’ll depend on the weather mostly. And I’m sure something will come up that needs urgent attention. It usually does.

It would be nice to get some gardening in… W’s tomato plants are growing like crazy and she thinks that makes her a gardener… but we don’t really EAT tomatoes. Unfortunately, tomatoes are the only thing she ever wants to grow.

There is a steep learning curve to growing your own food.

So many things to do, get started on something. And stack, because growing your own food is a good way to go hungry.
