We dropped $240 on food yesterday. This morning I am busy trying to collect on $800, and $1,200 invoices. (wish me luck, please)
It's already earmarked for food, ammunition, and topping off the gas tank. It's been a bit of an uphill fight with the wife as she is a DGI (doesn't get it). On the upside, that old river in Egypt, De-Nile, is mostly to blame, but she's beginning to come around to the notion I may not be as crazy as she thought.
Another thing I'm doing this week is calling in "dispersed items". My extended family + a short list of very old, trusted friends, have certain valuables, and .... "implements" spread out to each others houses. The thinking was, "What you don't have around can't be stolen, or confiscated."
I'm gettin' the feeling we're a teeny bit passed that. It's time to have about you what you think you'll need.
My fondest desire, still, is that we don't need any of it.
