07:57 – We got a fair amount of science kit stuff done yesterday. More today, along with laundry and other normal Saturday tasks. I also spent some time yesterday working on the prepping book, and plan to do more today.
One thing on my to-do list is to contact one of the freelance layout/design people that O’Reilly has used on our books to take the raw manuscript of this book and turn it into something professional looking. As Dirty Harry said, “a man’s go to know his limitations,” and I know that I’m not a layout/design person.
11:00 – Embarrassing prepper moment. I just emptied a 2 L bottle of Coke and ran downstairs to bring up another 4-pack. We’re out. Not a single bottle of Coke in the house. I thought I had a case of #10 cans of dehydrated Coke in stock, but apparently not. Oh, well. I’ll just make it up right here in the sink. I prefer my own blend, anyway, because it uses sucrose instead of high-fructose corn syrup.
