You should write a book about that or have a YouTube channel.

As you like it. Hopefully this tempest will all soon be just a midsummer nights dream.

Uh, I’m still working. I guess I should feel fortunate. Although I’m now actually working 5 days a week instead of just 4.

Cooking, reading, binge watching Warehouse 12, drinking rum, thinking maybe should clean house a little before the quarantine ends.

Drinking rum!!!!

That’s all I read :)

ACTUALLY, you reminded me that i wanted to make home made Sicilian pizza and cavatelli like mom did when I was a yoot.

She’s 87 now.

Boy was she a great cook back in the day.

And now I have to go see what Warehouse 12 is all about.

Had a blown head gasket at 280,000 miles on my Toyota Prius

Garage quoted $4500 to remove engine and replace gasket...if other issues with engine $8250 for a new engine.

So I went on Internet for solutions.

Got some gasket goo treatment.

Removed the thermostat, removed, cleaned and replaced the electric water pump, installed a heater core bypass, removed antifreeze liquid and flushed radiator....changed the engine oil (contaminated with coolant}

with water as coolant, pored in the gasket goo, run engine at fast revs for 15 minutes....no clunking sound from engine nor smoke from exhaust....check engine light disappeared...was indicating a misfire on piston No 2....400 miles later replaced coolant, thermostat and re connected heater core.....

Car runs great again, no engine check lights and total cost $175.

I meant Warehouse 13. Sorry, too much Barbados rum.

Observing the social engineering going on...as it fails...in real time.

Starting to rip DVDs.

Cleaning and organizing the garage more.

Taking some on line classes from Udemy.

Some yardwork.

Ignoring the panic mongers and hyena media.

Spinning over the project Willys jeep a lot more. A military dash is the next thing I’d like to get. Then the fenders.

Watching the CB750 carbs overflow. I keep saying I will work on it.

Watching some movies on DVD that I haven’t in years.

Try to come up with ideas for sellable stock photos and footage.

Studying Calculus III online.
Reading Solzhenitsyn The Gulag Archipelago. Not an easy read, but it reveals what the Democrats would like to do to us.
I was going to plant the garden, but Governor HalfWhitmer banned the sale of seeds as "non-essential". (I am not making this up.)
I thought I might repaint the hallway, but Governor HalfWhitmer has banned the sale of paint as "non-essential". (I am not making this up, either.)

This is a story to make you feel bad about yourself, for all you are not doing now, while “socially isolated”.

Mostly, no.

Work from home every other day.

The gendarmes aka happiness patrol aren’t too keen on my makeshift garage about 1/2 mile away. It’s on commercial property but no one goes there but me.

For now it’s just as well. My available scratch can’t justify much there.

Clean and organize the garage. I’m finding all the little powder coated Willys parts for someday reassembly.
