Got home and crashed out. I&#8217;m still tired and worn out.  I didn&#8217;t do too badly about staying hydrated over the last three weeks, but I did do an enormous amount of work and that took a bigger toll than I thought it did.  I&#8217;m not as young as I was.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, none of us are.   I can still push on through, but I think I&#8217;ll be paying for it for a while.<\/p>\n<p>And for most of 3 weeks, I let other things go.  That&#8217;s what the &#8216;catching up&#8217; is about.  I&#8217;ve got shopping, cleaning, maintenance and yard work, and general life stuff to do that I just put off.  I don&#8217;t have long to do it as I&#8217;m probably headed back to the BOL this week with D1 as D2 has a week long Girl Scout camp.  Summer is rapidly going to be winding down before we know it.<\/p>\n<p>And on top of all the other stuff, my rent house tenants have finally found a home of their own, and will be moving out at the end of the month.  So I&#8217;ll have a round of fix it up and clean it up to go through there as we look for new renters.  <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a good life if you don&#8217;t weaken&#8230;  <\/p>\n<p>Stacks help.  I don&#8217;t actually HAVE to go to the store.  But I&#8217;d rather not run down current stacks any more than I have.  As the kids have grown, their tastes have changed, and what I stack has changed too.  There is a bit of lag, or &#8216;overhang&#8217; though.  We have a lot more peanut butter and Nutella than we really need&#8230; and not as many feminine hygiene products.  <\/p>\n<p>Keep an eye on what you&#8217;re stacking, make sure it&#8217;s still appropriate.  Then stack it up.<\/p>\n<p>nick<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So it&#8217;ll be hot, and humid because Houston and summer&#8230; but I&#8217;ll complain anyway because that&#8217;s what people do, complain about the weather.
