A bit sore, stretched too.

Oh, no fuss.  You know I like it.  I will need to take a couple of days down, without plans and only very light work, perhaps this weekend.  I think I can keep it going, as needed, for a bit more.  Getting the faucet fixed, and installed if I can get it to work, or the replacement part works.  If not I will tinker to try to find the source of the problem, failing that I will call the manufacturer to find out what else might be the problem and go from there.  At least I have that resource now.  They seem to be reasonable.  Rare.  I will also get out shooting Thursday.  Depending on how all else is going, I may begin my break Friday.  Though I might just push on and get laundry caught up Friday, as an intermediary step down, then go down Saturday and Sunday.  Don't know, but that's sort of the plan.

As I said, the next project, after I get the faucet set back up, is to clean the barracks!  Gah.  I've just not had anything to put into that.  Toss, throw, eliminate, but also sort and straighten what I will be keeping.  Tools need a long sorting.  The problem is, much of it can't be sorted well.  Plumbing goo to wire to boxes of bolts and screws, and then throw in wrenches that can probably handle four inch pipe on down to dental picks.  My one tool chest is rather small.  A good minor kit, but it certainly doesn't help with the majority of my tools, let alone components and expendables.  Ah... this is where Some cabinets in the workshop might come in handy.  The problem with that is it gets cold out there, freezing cold.  Even if I add a heater, I wouldn't run that all the time.  Some things, like plumber goo, don't take well to freezing.  Wire?  Sure.  Nails, screws, and bolts?  Fine.  Sorting will have to take place.  I do need four more pegboard pieces, a few more pegboard hangers, and parts drawers out there.  But... the cave needs to be tidy, just for my mind's sake, before I get too much more into that. 

I have heard, to be a prepper, organization is probably the first key.  If you have everything you might need, let's just say someone does... if they can't lay their hands to what they need without a major effort, there is a major problem.  More so if a time dependent function is on the hoof.  This is not one of my features (or bugs :p ).  Organization is a lot of work for me to obtain, and then a major hassle to maintain.  I'm not alone but that doesn't matter.  I really need to pick up the pace on that a bit.  The place has to be reasonably clean and neat before that can start.  I'm... working on it. 

Sam, sitting in my lap, getting petted, decided to smell my hands.  Don't know why...  Ah, pork roast remnants.  Yes, I wash.  Cats just have a keener sense of smell than even a decent wash can remove.  This time, however, she got a little (bigger than usual) zap to the nose.  It hurt even me a bit.  Static electricity.  Usually she... just rolls with that.  Being in a desert, we sort of just have to live with that... if a humidifier might help... but those are a pain to keep up.  Anyway, as I suggested, she usually just... understands.  This time though, it tickled my fancy, and so I started laughing.  She can be sensitive about that.  I tried to calm her, and stop laughing.  Neither convinced her though, and I had a hard time doing either convincingly to be honest, and off she went... in a bit of a huff.  Lord knows I enjoy the ladies, even cat ladies, for some of their ways.  *huff*  *grins*  Ah, but she has decided two handed petting is worth a little seeming hit to the ego.  She's already back.

Later.
