Day 328 (in which I succumb)

After meeting our friends' brother-in-law to give him the stuff they sent in our lift (that's 2 of 3 lift-sharers who have claimed their stuff), I threw in the towel and went back to Rami Levy. I got some more carrots, onions, and eggs, feeling that there's a real chance that this section of the country really will shut down for a whole week.

Upon my return home (holy moly, the checkout line was really nuts), I finished sharpening our ax and cut a bunch more firweood. (Thank you, Uncle, for giving me that hint I didn't even know I needed. Apparently you sharpen an axe with a file; the hand-held whetstone is for honing, not sharpening.) Tomorrow I'll fill up our water containers, and that will be it, I think.

In saner news, I figured out how to fit one more shelving unit in our salon! It doesn't even eat up floor space that wasn't already effectively eaten. Not only did I figure out how to fit another bookcase, I actually moved the furniture necessary and brought in our spare utility shelves that we bought as stopgap measure before our lift came. Actually wiping down the shelves and filling them up can wait: I did good.
