    The first real storm of the season has arrived in Jefferson (far north California). It has been raining here since 6am-it is 11am now. I have the buckets out collecting rainwater from the leak in the roof that is actually a leak in the opening that was originally an RV-style roof vent. That vent...

    This morning around 5am local time I sprayed nest killer in the pipe then watched the inside end (the end taped with paper and duck tape) to see how the wasps tried to escape. I caught 8 of them, and plugged the gaps in the cables the best I could with duck tape. The nest made a very LOUD...

    I found the wasp nest. It's in the short pipe where all the cables come into my house. I have it blocked off with paper from a bag and duck tape, for this reason, but the wasps nested in it and found a hole. I blocked the hole with duck tape, and today I will buy foaming nest killer. After that...

    I think I have a wasp nest in a wall somewhere. I keep seeing them even though I blocked all the ways I thought they were getting in. They haven't stung me yet though.

    Oh yeah, I forgot that @Metalhead has gout, now I remember him mentioning it in the past. Maybe non-protein weighted nutrition drinks like Ensure or Glucerna?

    I would recommend eating red meat, especially cow meat (beef), afterwards. Beef is packed with good proteins that will help you build muscle and recover quickly from your workouts. Some serious weight trainers will drink high protein shakes, but imo eating high protein meats is probably better.

    I was in Sacramento all last week trying to get my new Cummins generator repaired. The tech said it was burning oil but had no clue why. When I realized that the parts for the service wouldn't be in til the end of this week I drove home. I am not spending another week in that dump of a city.

    Problems with hoarding

    It sounds like you have trauma related to being poor and bullied for ratty clothes, and when you got new clothes you felt better and your classmates treated you better. In your mind you associate getting "new clothes" from the thrift store with being perceived to be a better person due to your...

    Acorns have to "cure" over the winter, preferably in a warm, dry place. Some of the Karuk People put them in a metal bucket next to their woodstoves. I don't have that luxury, but I have an idea of where I can store them.
