Yes, tomorrow is my last day. All I need to do is clean out part of the office and say goodbye to a few good people. Exit interview at 2PM.

More time for smoking, grilling & chilling!

Congratulations!

Last year, since I'm retired, I decided to computer shop for groceries from Costco and Amazon... I still hit my local small grocery for perishable stuff, once a month... Keep my fridge at 34F so stuff lasts..

Buying in bulk from C and A put my pantry in a crimp...
I'm getting good quality from Costco... Prices aren't bad buying by the case...
The time I save and money on fuel are amazing...
I needed to fuel my 4x4 diesel last October... 22 gallons... I have a book in my truck where I write down everything I do to it... I looked at the note above where I was writing down this fill up... It was October of 2020.. WHAT !!! A year ago... 274 miles driven... about 3 miles to the grocery, about 10 miles to the dump, 2 trips, and maybe 14-16 trips to the grocery...
EDIT... And the many trips to the doctor...

Now that the fuel is sky high, I'm broke-in to not driving...
My knee being twisted out of shape and my broken wrist got me into not driving too much... Turned out to be a really good deal... Too bad this November, 2022, isn't evenly divisible by 4...
Plan your trips, cut driving down to 1 day per week to start, then what ever works out best for you... It can be done... Social life goes to heck...
OH !!! Butt-A-Judge says you should purchase a $60,000 Tesla to ease the pain...
That's all folks... Have a good day...

Dave...

Yep...sure makes ole Pete look smart...I know what he can do with that electric car, but he'd probably like it

[Fueling Around]

I was watching the news on Monday and the on the street reporter was doing a feature on rising fuel prices. Gas price jumped 20¢ from when he started pumping to when he finished filling the tank.
Sam's is just a couple miles away and the lines are insane.

Looking for bulk tanks to buy in bulk now before it gets worse. Figure the cost of savings will offset the price of tanks.
...

I'm hoping the boss got the farm fuel tanks filled before this madness. The big tillage tractor alone sucks around 20 gals/hr.

And they are getting more work out of good employees, the only negative is there seems to be no time restrictions. My wife gets meeting requests from 7 am till 7 pm sometimes. They are getting more time out of her than it was commuting. She does not mind, if she wants to go for a walk in the middle of the day she does. We want to head to the PA house, she takes calls in the car and works from up there total flexibility.

My wife is actually on call 24/7 since before the ... stupidity started. At home we live 4 blocks away so what she cannot handle remote was a quick walk.
Now most of the calls she can handle remote at home or in the car.
Currently, She's working remote for the winter (snow birds) and loves crawling out of bed and sitting working in her jammies for a few hours before dressing, well that often means Walmart dress code sweat pants.

The amount of time my wife takes zoom meetings with a nice top and sweat pants is hilarious. She has had a suit on the dresser that was to go out to the cleaners for a year and a half now. Now her biggest bitch is if the cats gets in the way from our bedroom to her office across the hall, that is her traffic jam. I am in the basement surrounded by my fish tanks and I am OK with that.

BTW this one her "co-workers: in the office
