Yesterday was very nice and I&#8217;d like a bit more spring, if you please.  It was mid 80s by afternoon, even a bit hot when the breeze wasn&#8217;t blowing.  Sunny and clear too.<\/p>\n<p>So I looked at the weekly forecast and decided to do my pickups and drop off yesterday, and see my client today.   I needed the clear weather for the pickup truck load, but I&#8217;ll be using the Expy for my site visit.  I figured I&#8217;d better make-a hay while the sun, she is a-shining.  That way, my stuff doesn&#8217;t get wet.   <\/p>\n<p>Worked out.<\/p>\n<p>Today I am headed to my client&#8217;s house to do some troubleshooting and swapping of gear.  Hopefully it will either resolve the issue, or point to the problem.  Some things you can&#8217;t do remotely.  Poking around in the rack and wiggling cables is one of those things.  <\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon, I should be headed over to my buddy&#8217;s shop to see what I can do to help him get ready to move.  <\/p>\n<p>Those are the plans, but what really happens is subject to change.  Always.<\/p>\n<p>Kinda like prepping and disasters.   You can plan, but you need flexibility too.   Sometimes your plan needs to be discarded and a new plan developed.  Sometimes things change or your needs change.   It&#8217;s worth looking at your assumptions and plans to see if they are still appropriate and serving you well.   <\/p>\n<p>You might have to adjust what you&#8217;re stacking, where it&#8217;s stacked, or who you are stacking for.   Grandbabies are a lot different than adult children.  Having aging parents, or aging self calls for different approaches than when you were a young buck and could just power through.  Besides, you&#8217;re smarter now, right?<\/p>\n<p>So stack.  Reconsider. And stack some more.<\/p>\n<p>nick<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cool and clear but raining later, if the liars aren&#8217;t lying.
