Hot, but less so, humid like a fat guy’s butt crack.\u00a0 Yeah, I went there.\u00a0\u00a0 Apparently the local pharma-purveyors are hiding crack in their cracks… so that’s where my brain went.\u00a0 According to the scanner anyway.<\/p>\n

We did get some rain yesterday.\u00a0 Cats and dogs for a short while at home, but not 2 miles away.\u00a0 Only a sprinkle there.\u00a0 Some places didn’t get any.\u00a0 I’m hoping for sunny and drier today.<\/p>\n

I’ve got a bunch of pickups to do, if I do them. And a shopping list of stuff to take to the lake.\u00a0 I’ve got a pile of stuff already, and most of my pickups are headed that way too.\u00a0\u00a0 PLUS I’ve got to leave room for a passenger, as I’m taking D1 with me.\u00a0 D2 is getting her chance to learn small boat sailing this weekend and mom is going with her.\u00a0 Since I’ll have a child with me, I will have to make a better menu plan than usual.<\/p>\n

Sadly my latest referral for a guy to do the foundation work decided that the project was too big for him.\u00a0\u00a0 That puts me back where\u00a0 I was.\u00a0\u00a0 I am going to start pulling stuff off the schedule and doing it myself or finding someone locally to do it.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Just looking at conduit for the new underground electrical service, and materials will be $750 or more, plus the trencher.\u00a0\u00a0 The electrician and mounting stuff will be more than that…\u00a0 If I can move things along at this point, I think I have to.<\/p>\n

Oy.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, I can run pex to everywhere it’s needed.\u00a0 Through the attic.\u00a0\u00a0 In July.\u00a0 ‘Cuz that’s fun.<\/p>\n

Oy.<\/p>\n

I’ll be stacking up a whole lotta knowledge and experience on this one.<\/p>\n

Figure out what you’ll need and start stacking it.<\/p>\n
