I didn&#8217;t go in the sun at all.  Still sweated more than I realized.   I was working in the covered carport, and in the garage.  I&#8217;ve got the airconditioners running in the garage, but they can&#8217;t get it down below about 81F when it is 100F out.  You&#8217;d think that was good enough, but it&#8217;s still sweat dripping off your eyelashes if you do any real work.<\/p>\n<p>Still, despite my complaints I did get real stuff done yesterday.

Dunno if it&#8217;s real, but it feels too early for the really big hit.  2008 played out over the weekend so it&#8217;s possible for big things to happen very suddenly&#8230;  Keep your eyes open, and some cash on hand&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Having said that, I raided my ready precious for $800 to buy 4&#215;4 posts for my dock project yesterday.  I hope I don&#8217;t come to regret not having the cash.<\/p>\n<p>Can&#8217;t time everything right, and the universe tends towards maximum perversity.   It would suck to have the financial apocalypse this weekend.   We&#8217;ve made preparations, but there is always more you can do, and you always want more time to do it.   <\/p>\n<p>With that in mind, stack some extra.   Consider this weekend a wake up call that things are coming apart.  They do that periodically.
