Good morning!!!!

[ronjhall]

Busy morning dehydrating last of apples on hand. Chilli in IP. Dishes washed.
Got a check valve for my old hydraulic toplink cylinder. Need to make adapters for 12mm tube to 1/4” npt. Got them started on lathe. Standing for to many hours makes my back ache. Back in house trying to conserve what little energy I have left.

Raining, so indoors rest of day, no seat time, no project work. Just energy conservation.

Got an amazon package caught in USPS **** (the eternal burning afterlife). Out for delivery 3/21. Never delivered. Tracking says address redirect, whatever that means. Nothing updated on amazon or USPS tracking since. Calls to local post office go unanswered.
Finally called Usps tracking phone number. Went thru another automated phone system nightmare, but was able to enter tracking number and schedule delivery tomorrow.


Neighbor is mowing his yard again, maybe I should give mine a go.

So what is the best way to sterilize packages?
1. spray with alcohol
2. spray with clorox solution
3. leave in the sun and rotates so all sides are exposed to sunlight
4. put in oven at 160˚F two hours or 170˚F one hour (paper ignites at 451˚F, plastic melts at 165˚F)
5. expose all sides to UVC light

I'm handling them with work gloves then putting the gloves in the sun for a few days, might set up a clothesline.
I've a few dozen gloves. Mostly SHOWA Atlas 300 Fit Palm Coating Natural Rubber Glove.
Never thought I'd need them for this. Note price hasn't gone up since 2018.
keep cool and spaced out.

Just got an email from a cousin who said he took his wife to the hospital emergency room last night. She's had COPD for many years. But last night they did all kinds of tests, concluded that she has pneumonia, did some kind of breathing treatments, considered keeping for a couple of days, but then sent her home with 4 prescriptions. And he said they wouldn't let him stay with her, and wouldn't let him stay in the waiting room where there might be other people, so he sat in his pickup in the parking lot until 1:30 a.m. Of course she's 69 and he's 78.

Ron, if you have a block of wood or whatever you have laying around that is about 12" tall, put that on the floor and rest one or the other foot on it. What happens is that with one foot up on the block it kinda forces you to stand with your back straight.
