Day 21. These days do be getting long. And the nights short. We've gained 2 hours on the schedule since yesterday. Breakers go back in the cubicles today.

I'm peeking at a auction, threw in a bid and it wouldn't bother me if I got outbid. If I got it that's OK as well, I really don't need to look at auctions anyway..
I'm happy in the gator hole. It's a fine place to be.

The $$$ is made in the buy, not the sell. But you have to sell to get the potential profit. Get some table space at a swap meet or big flea market. Kind of like the old skool ones held at drive in movie theaters on weekend mornings.
(Or sell to a vendor there, you won't get as much $$ for it but it will be easier to get rid of more of it, and they can make some coin as well)
Yeah I need to do that as well. So I guess I'll be taking the car as well as car parts Intakes, carbs, starters, guages, chrome alternators, oil cans, distributors etc.. I don't need them, I need the room more.
I just dont want to move all the stuff multiple times..

And, I am an auction junkie. I have to stay away from them. I have a driveway full of auction pickup trucks and garages full of auction tools and equipment. My son-in-law told me about an auction that he picked up a few tools from about two months ago. I got on it and now it says that I have “won” 976 items. I know I’m addicted but how can I pass on $5 Craftsman 1/2” hammer drills, $1 microwaves or a Callaway left handed golf club set of 13 clubs and a stand up bag for that left handed son in law of mine for $135 ? Last night I got a power lift heated recliner for $204 that I was just going to order on Amazon for $400. My Mrs says I’m crazy and she is probably spot on. But if I was not a bit “wild and crazy” I don’t believe I would have been able to intrigue her, a definite movie star quality woman, so many years ago. Yes I truly scored way above my pay grade. Anyway some of the treasures that I’ve scored on the auction: Craftsman 101/2” table saw with stand $25, Dewalt 12” sliding compound miter saw $76, Metabo 10” compound sliding miter saw $55, commercial frying pans 14” $7 each (I gave everyone in the family one) and obviously the list goes on and on. This is all new shelf pulls and dirty box items from stores. My biggest problem is storing the “treasures”. I filled up a large storage locker that I had 12 stoves in ( from a home economics class at a local high school). Almost new stainless steel $50 each on another auction. They work well in rental homes. Is there an AA (auctions anonymous). She says I need intervention. 😂🤣😜😊 What site is this? You need to check out some storage lockers www.storagetreasures.com/account/dashboardwww.lockerfox.com/auctions/listHere's one near me you would probably love, looks like a plumbing contractor left everything behind www.storagetreasures.com/auctions/fl/gainesville/3939650

I have never bought anything at an auction. I have bid on a couple of things here and there but usually get my feelings hurt very quickly.
A few months ago my dad went to an estate sale. He called and woke me up to tell me to bring my truck. This man went and bought a whole house worth of matching antique bedroom suites for my daughters. "So they'd have good stuff and wouldn't have to struggle at least for that" muther^@%%$er. I been married 25 years and he ain't never bought me a bedroom set. But he damn sure set them up with some good stuff that day. I told my SILs you bastards shoukd struggle and sleep on hand me downs and passed downs and curb finds like I did. 😁

Fellas ya boy is a whipped ass. We moved all 5 breakers 2 3000A and 3 1200A down into the pla t and installed today. That for the most part was our big project for the outage. Now we will probably just get loaned out to which ever crew needs the most help. I for one am really looking forward to a few days off in a couple of weeks.
