We&#8217;ve been having a stunning run of cooler and nice days.  It&#8217;s low to mid 80s in the afternoon, which for us is like winter.  It&#8217;s windows down weather.  Shirtsleeves and shorts.  No sweat weather.  Fantastic.  We do need rain, especially in other parts of Texas, but for now, I&#8217;m loving it.<\/p>\n<p>Did a couple of pickups yesterday.  The main thing though was finally getting my auctioneer to start taking consignments again.  I can move stuff out of the house and maybe even a couple of bins out of the storage unit.  At this point I almost don&#8217;t even care if he pays me&#8230;  well yes, I do.  Since we did the taxes, my business was a bit shy on incoming money, mainly because he still owes me for last year.  That doesn&#8217;t look great to the IRS, so it would be better to be paid.  This year should be better.<\/p>\n<p>So that&#8217;s today&#8217;s task, get a load dropped off at the auctioneer.  I&#8217;ve got a pickup too, but I&#8217;ll get to that in the early afternoon.  Hopefully, I&#8217;ll get the load dropped off in the late morning.  Then I&#8217;ve got to do some grocery shopping. I think buying eggs today is cutting it a bit late, but I didn&#8217;t stop in yesterday.  With shortages and Easter this weekend, and eldest child on a high protein diet kick, I need to increase my stock on hand.   Funny how what we eat changes over time.<\/p>\n<p>Gotta keep watch on the stacks, and compare against current and changing needs.  I&#8217;ve got far too much peanut butter, syrup, and ketchup.   Not enough eggs&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Check that your stacks still meet your needs, and then adjust.<\/p>\n<p>But do stack&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>nick<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cool and clear, getting warmer later.
