A One-Two Punch
Oct. 9th, 2024 07:14 amI debated with myself whether to try to get my blood draw done this morning, but the way it's raining, I don't really want to deal with it. I have some last minute cleaning and prep things I want to do before the power goes out - which it likely will. Yesterday I went with Fox and while he did his PT I managed to buy some ethanol-free gas for the generator and fill up a couple of the diesel jugs for the tractor. I also filled one of our water bottles at Walmart which was not crazy yet, but they were out of toilet paper and bottled water. There was still beer though, LOL.
Trash pick up is supposed to be going on today until conditions become hazardous, so we'll see if they get mine or if I'm skipped over again. We did manage to finish the trash shed, so it's tall enough for the county-issued cans, but the doors are also on it. We prefer to protect the generator, so it goes into the shed where it can be out of the rain. It does have adequate ventilation in there, but then we also have an older model without the carbon dioxide sensor.
Today I'll start taking rain gauge readings every four hours. By tonight things should start getting rough, but the track is trending more to the south, which pulls it away from us. And of course there's much cooler temps after this thing. Seven weeks until Space Coast :D
Speaking of - I found some scrap denim, and I plan to do my "Dorie's Marathons" hashmark patch with a permanent marker. I can also do the word marathons in the style of the Metallica logo because why wouldn't I? I'm probably listening to Metallica while I run anyway.
I'm not feeling as much need to stress bake, but I'm going to make a tray of granola today. I'll probably feed the sourdough. Hmm. I would have sworn I saw a link yesterday to a recipe for sourdough cinnamon muffins, I need to go look for that.
