Cool and damp.\u00a0 Maybe some rain.\u00a0\u00a0 Nice break from the premature summer I thought we were getting.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It was cool and wet at the BOL, then beautiful in Houston after some rain in the AM.\u00a0 Par for the course?\u00a0 Probably.\u00a0\u00a0 Except the “beautiful” part.\u00a0\u00a0 That’s rare enough to be noted and enjoyed.<\/p>\n
Had a pretty good extended weekend at the BOL.\u00a0 Finished up a bunch of small things, and am almost done with a big one.\u00a0\u00a0 Done enough I could live with it if needed…\u00a0 All the old plumbing has been replaced that I can replace, in the house anyway.\u00a0\u00a0 I have two hose bibs to connect, and I haven’t because I made it complicated when I decided they should be on their own “circuit” with a valve, so they could be shut off and drained in the winter.\u00a0\u00a0 And I wanted only one valve, somewhere easy to get to.\u00a0 It’s a good idea, just getting in the way of the ‘done.’<\/p>\n
Time to do a few more things here.\u00a0\u00a0 I still have the ‘gas engine day’ and the ‘plant something in the garden day’ and the fix stuff around the house day’ and the ‘clean up the mess from popped cans and sort your food day’ and ‘keep cleaning up and getting rid of stuff day’… well, y’all know that story by now.<\/p>\n
Part of being a good steward and prepping is maintaining and fixing your stuff.\u00a0 I’ve fallen a bit behind on that…<\/p>\n
So I’ll be stacking up some work for a while.\u00a0\u00a0 I’ll still be adding stuff, but I need to do some hard work too.<\/p>\n
Stack whatever you can.<\/p>\n
