And it will be hot again. I have to wait for afternoon so that I’m working in shadow, because that sun is broiling hot when it’s 100F and humid. Today should be the same as yesterday. HOT. And soaked to the skin from sweat in this Houston humidity.
Unfortunately my evaporative cooling vest doesn’t do much in high humidity and my ice pack based one is at the BOL. I did bring a bouncy house fan and having the moving air helps a lot. That fan is small but moves tons of air.
I spent yesterday afternoon and evening moving stuff from the last of my storage units to the shop, and stacking and organizing to make room for it. I found some stuff I’d forgotten about, both for my ham radio swapmeet and for my non-prepping hobby. You’d think I couldn’t misplace and forget about several black bins full of stuff, but I could and did.
There is a lesson there that is probably something like “you should go through all your stuff at least once a year to remember what you’ve got and where it is.” There was far too much stuff I set down and never got back to.
And that friends, is one of the drawbacks to focusing on stacking. I’ve got the stuff, but do I really have it if I don’t remember it, and can’t put my hands on it?
Nevertheless, having it is better than not having it. Stack!
