That was yesterday, and hopefully today.  I love Fall.   We don&#8217;t get much of the changing foliage, but we do get some.

That kept me mostly out of there and off that project.  I did some auction stuff instead.  It turned into a mostly &#8216;off&#8217; day.<\/p>\n<p>Today will be different.  I should be able to wrap up the new pantry project.  I&#8217;ll put the laundry room back together and progress as far as I can anyway.   I&#8217;ve got one pickup close by, and I&#8217;ll do some auction stuff in the morning too.  But I should be able to get some more work done around the house.<\/p>\n<p>Should.  I&#8217;m beginning to think about adding some more bulk buckets to the stacks too.  What&#8217;s cheap now might be dear later.  Well, relatively cheap&#8230; it&#8217;s still much more than it was a couple of years ago and there is less selection.  War leads to a number of things, shortages and displaced people being among the most prevalent.  One I can do something about.  The other, all I can do is try to prevent it from being me, and prepare to offer what help I can.<\/p>\n<p>Stacks will help.<\/p>\n<p>nick<\/p>\n<p>(why are the king&#8217;s horses involved?)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cool.
