Hot and humid, but less so than Houston. It was mostly in the high 80s low 90s yesterday. Lots of humidity, but overcast kept it comfortable most of the day. Unless one happened to be engaged in physical labor, then it was miserable soaked to the skin sweaty hot.
Like it was for me. Every stitch of clothing soaked completely with sweat. Lost track of the gatoraid I drank, and used my cool vest 3 times. The gas line is in the trench, enters the garage, runs to a manifold. I started work on the supply side of the water plumbing too. Discovered I need 4 specific pex fittings that I don’t have. May head into town to see if Tractor Supply has them, if not, I’ll work the other end of the system.
Family made it here safely. Had dinner.
Brand new gallon of costco milk was sour when opened. Seal was bad under the intact cap. I might go into town for milk, and just stop by the hardware or TS store on the way. I’m not the only one with milk going off before its time lately. One more thing failing amongst many.
I REALLY am feeling pressure to have this place ready as a real refuge. Politics are getting more divisive and the rhetoric is escalating. Pretty sure the current president just declared war on more than half the population. Since he said last week that we’d need more than guns, and finally stumbled around to saying we’d need F-15s, that sounds a lot like he intends to use the Armed Forces against us. Wonder how that will work out? Nice for the heads up though.
You aren’t stacking enough. Get busy.
