Cool, wet, and gross. That’s my bet for today. It’s how yesterday ended up after all. Even had to turn the A/C back on after dinner.
Did some auction stuff in the morning, then headed out to do pickups. At one they couldn’t find the item, at the other one I flipped it back to the auctioneer to sell to another buyer. Those were unfortunately the farthest from home and took the most time. I made $10 on the flip… and the item was in far worse condition than I thought, so I didn’t want it anyway. The other buyer had seen it and still wanted it. Worked out for both of us I guess. It paid for the gas and tolls. The other pickups had a bunch of ham radio bits and pieces, and stuff for the BOL.
While I was driving all over north Houston metro, I ran into rain in several areas. I’m sure there were a lot of places that didn’t get any, and a few that got clobbered. That is just one of the difficulties of forecasting weather for “Houston”… we got a lot of “Houston”, and the weather is very different in different parts of town. The problem only gets bigger with bigger areas until you see the absurdity of talking about worldwide weather or climate.
But that is preaching to the choir. Which I just realized is a very strange word, with the vowel sounds reversed to how it’s spelled. English is weird.
Ramble on…
Today I might do the gear replacement at my client’s house. I’m hoping to pick up a check, which motivates me to head out there. He pays me well enough for me to prioritize his needs. After that I’ll have a couple of pickups I can do, or I can put them off until Friday. It’s gonna be one of those “play it by ear” days.
And then I’ve got the Thursday kid taxi service to do. That’s stay at home dadlife…
Gives me time to stack, occasionally.
Take some time to work on your own stacks. And kids, for that matter.
