Day: May 9, 2026

Sat. May 9, 2026 – non-prepping hobby day

Cool and wet, then warmer and wet. We’re in the T-storm zone in the national forecast, and it was raining when I went to bed. I’m guessing we’ll get more rain today.

Yesterday I messed around in the morning, doing auction stuff and office stuff. Finally settled the insurance claim from being rear-ended in the Ranger in 2021. It’s less than I would like, but I didn’t want them to total it either. The delay is on me.

Then I did pickups and broke down the lappy carts I picked up this week. The trash and scrap are in the Ranger and I’ll maybe get to that later today.

Today is my non-prepping hobby meeting, and quarterly swapmeet. I’m not bringing anything to sell this time. I don’t have anything new since the last one, really, and it’s farther away at a space we’ve never used before. I just wasn’t feeling it. I’m hoping the membership and the BOD will decide on the venue close to my house after next month so we can get settled.

Prepping this week was mostly just salvaging those batteries and inverters, but I also got some coffee for the stacks, and 5 new aquatainers. 2 will stay here and 3 will go to the BOL.

There is always something more you need, or something that aged out and needs to be replaced. So keep stacking!
