No rain on me yesterday, and suitably mild all day.  Really nice weather.<\/p>\n<p>Spent the day at my client&#8217;s house, doing stuff.  Mainly getting networking up so my controls guy can work remotely.  He even sent his guy to help.  Together we got most of what we could get done.  I&#8217;ll finish that up today and move on to video.   That&#8217;s the plan anyway. <\/p>\n<p>My local auction happened and was a bust.  Something went wrong and stuff sold for no money at all, or didn&#8217;t even sell.  I KNOW what stuff has been selling for in local auctions.  I&#8217;m watching two that close later today that have unusually low bids at the moment, but not 0s like mine had.  It&#8217;s possible that the mood could have flipped and I was just a month late.  I predicted some time ago that there would be a point where it all just ended, but I was hoping it was farther off and I could get a couple of auctions in before then.  Otherwise, I don&#8217;t know what the issue was.  I&#8217;ll be talking with the auctioneer later today too.  He&#8217;s got to be just as freaked as I am since he did all the work.<\/p>\n<p>In other news, my wife wants to go look at a lake house this weekend.  It looks nice in the pix and it&#8217;s on her preferred lake.  I need to do other things, like get my pallet load auction listed, or spend the day on paying work if I have to finish up my client&#8217;s install.  Having someplace to go if the need to go increases suddenly is a long term prep that I really need and want, but&#8230; it&#8217;s a big commitment and we&#8217;ve got a huge list of other things going on.  Is it ever a good time?<\/p>\n<p>I guess we&#8217;ll see if the Republic gets a pause on the downslope when the Rittenhouse verdict comes down.  No matter what, I see fires on the streets of Kenosha. <\/p>\n<p>Keep stacking.  It&#8217;s getting more interesting  every day.<\/p>\n<p>nick <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Cool and clear for most of Houston, possibly someone gets some rain, but hope it&#8217;s not me.
