Hot again, wet.\u00a0 Probably rainy as well.<\/p>\n
Yesterday was all that with some serious downpours depending on what part of town you were in.\u00a0 We got hammered at the house, and I got hammered on my errands.<\/p>\n
The sun did come out late in the afternoon, but everything was wet and the humidity was at saturation.\u00a0 Not pleasant.<\/p>\n
Dinner was canned pulled pork from Costco, at least a couple of years past best by, half with bbq sauce, half without, served on hamburger buns, with pasta and canned corn (of course) as a side.\u00a0 Kids gobbled it down.\u00a0\u00a0 We’ve been using 2 cans whenever I make something from storage, but my planning was for one can and more rice or pasta for a really long term condition.\u00a0 Still got plenty so it makes sense to stick with small variations on our normal meals for now.\u00a0 Reading the Little House books, they eat a lot of salt pork as their meat, and have a lot of meatless meals.\u00a0 In last night’s chapter Ma writes down her recipe for 3 meals for the itinerant preacher that will be “baching”\u00a0 and cooking for himself.\u00a0\u00a0 She figures he’ll probably make himself sick with his own cooking.\u00a0 He figures he’ll learn to cook as he goes.\u00a0\u00a0 Both are probably right.\u00a0 (Also, a jar of pickles was a major treat for the girls, like something they’d never tasted before.\u00a0 We live in an age of unheard of abundance.)<\/p>\n
Swim team practice this morning, then I’ll head over to my secondary and do some cleaning and organizing there.\u00a0 Maybe I’ll fire up the forklift to move some stuff closer to the dumpster.\u00a0 I’ve got to get aggressive and make some room.\u00a0 It would also be nice to finish a couple of the projects I’ve got started here too.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, I don’t know how this rioting ends.\u00a0 It’s clearly getting outside support.\u00a0 It also has a parallel governing structure.\u00a0 Those are two of the requirements for a successful insurrection, which is very concerning.\u00a0 It won’t end with them having their demands met.\u00a0 70% of the country will not accept them, and the rioters don’t actually have any idea what they’d accept to stop.\u00a0 Like all of the left’s demands, they are designed to NOT be meet-able.\u00a0 That lets them stay in a perpetual state of agitation.<\/p>\n
The wuflu is not going to ignore the rioters and protesters either.\u00a0\u00a0 We’ll either see more cases, or we’ll know it’s no longer a threat.\u00a0 I’d love for it to not be a threat, but I expect cases to rise dramatically, especially in the cities.\u00a0 Texas is already seeing an increase, likely due to our early relaxation of restrictions.<\/p>\n
On top of the wuflu, the protests\/riots, and all the shifts in geopolitical alignment, we’ve got all our (ab)normal election year drama coming up too.\u00a0 It’s not gonna be calm.\u00a0 It’s not going to be ‘normal’.\u00a0 I expect a LOT of domestic terrorism and unrest.\u00a0 Localized violence.\u00a0 Maybe even worse.<\/p>\n
Get ready for all that.\u00a0 There is still some time.<\/p>\n
Keep stacking.<\/p>\n
