First, let me apologize for being late and for the most part, absent this last weekend but let me explain why and what to expect next week.
With a surprise visit from our property owner, under the premise of looking at a dead tree, came the news that he was having some money problems and that the house I have lived in for the last ten years needed to be sold. Of course, he needs me out yesterday.
After a day of crying and panic at the thought of digging through 10 years of rat holed junk came the prospect of moving to a newer, bigger and better place and everything is set and in place to go. This last weekend, from Friday night to Sunday night was spent in a mad thrash packing boxes and throwing out junk. We missed our first Formula 1 race in two years and also missed every other race the entire weekend.
Subsequently, we haven't been around to post or prep the board for the next week and just now are taking the time to get started. It usually takes around five hours to make graphics and change some code. Next week, I am not sure I will have a minute to spare?
So far, about 10 car loads of stuff have been moved but the real work starts on the 1st. U-Haul's biggest truck has been reserved and a couple of hands hired to move the big furniture. The DooberVille workshop will almost take a whole truck with 3 big workbenches, big tool box, 4 Gorilla racks, lumber for projects and the bumpers and interior panels from the under construction DooberMobile. There's a Ninja out there too that needs to be ridden over.
Basically, things are in chaos and will be for another week so please don't yell at us if we cut a few corners off our normal routine. The good news is at least we'll get to see MotoGP live at 5:00am on Saturday and then after that, it's back to the moving. And oh yeah, it was 107 degrees today and is predicted to be 110 next week. It is exhausting to do heavy work when it is this warm out.
Bear with us, Doobers. We'll be back to full industrial strength just as soon as we can.
