Hot and humid.\u00a0 Of course.<\/p>\n
It hit 111F in my driveway according to my weather station yesterday.\u00a0 I know it felt damned hot.<\/p>\n
Didn’t get much done.\u00a0 Back hurts and I’m trying not to aggravate it.\u00a0 I did get some stuff over to my secondary location, and some debris for the dumpster there.\u00a0 I picked up my 3 cases of TP and misc. assorted other auction items.\u00a0 (mainly art supplies for the kids)\u00a0 I went to the chiropractor.\u00a0 Got a doc I haven’t seen before, but she seemed competent.\u00a0 Made me feel better, moved some stuff around.\u00a0\u00a0 Didn’t hurt me like some of the guys have done.\u00a0 I’ll go back on Friday for another adjustment.\u00a0 Lots of people put chiropractors with witch doctors and ambulance chasers, but I’ve always had good results and I’ve been going for decades.\u00a0 Good and bad in any field I guess.<\/p>\n
I haven’t made it in to see my buddy at the toy store in a while.\u00a0 I’m starting to get anxious.\u00a0 They have reduced their store hours because their employees have all decided to stay home, and they don’t have any inventory aside from a few consignments.\u00a0 They do transfers all day long though for online buyers.\u00a0 They are good people and I miss dropping in just to say hi.<\/p>\n
I noticed while I was out that the Goodwill Outlet was “Temporarily Closed”.\u00a0 No explanation, no reopen date.\u00a0 I wonder if they’ve had an outbreak.\u00a0 I hope not.<\/p>\n
I saw a bunch of new empty storefronts and new “For Lease” signs.\u00a0 Some on brand new businesses that never even really had a chance to open.\u00a0 Even here we’re feeling the downturn coming.<\/p>\n
One of my buddies is having some successes with his new prepping lifestyle- he’s got his first eggs from his new chickens, and he’s successfully made cheese from his excess .gov milk… so I guess he’s made government cheese<\/a>…*<\/p>\n People are adapting and overcoming.\u00a0 If you sit around waiting for things to go ‘back to normal’ I have a feeling you’ll be left behind.\u00a0 Nothing irrevocable, but start moving forward.\u00a0 There are always opportunities.<\/p>\n Everything is easier with resources.\u00a0 So…….. keep stacking \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n <\/p>\n nick<\/p>\n <\/p>\n *I loved the taste of the government cheese.\u00a0\u00a0 What was it, late 70s?\u00a0 Giant block of mild cheddar cheese, enough to build a fort with.\u00a0 Grandma shared with the whole family.\u00a0 I’d cut 1\/2 inch thick slabs off and eat that like candy.\u00a0 Big slabs on white bread as sandwiches.\u00a0 Good times. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hot and humid.\u00a0 Of course.<\/p>\n It hit 111F in my driveway according to my weather station yesterday.\u00a0 I know it felt damned hot.<\/p>\n Didn’t get much done.\u00a0 Back hurts and I’m trying not to aggravate it.\u00a0 I did get some stuff over to my secondary location, and some debris for the dumpster there.\u00a0 I picked up my 3 cases of TP and misc. assorted other auction items.\u00a0 (mainly art supplies for the kids)\u00a0 I went to the chiropractor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
