It’s not cabin fever anymore…warm weather and sunny days have opened up my garage and yard to sincere work time, which I plan on taking advantage of. But this quarantine crap is really aggravating in other methods. For starters, we made a supply run the other day and it felt like we were rushing to get home before sirens started wailing and anyone caught out would be missing my sunrise. I haven’t spent one dime on gasoline in weeks. That hasn’t been normal for me since I was thirteen. I’m not trying to make light of the situation out there…it’s real and you should be taking things seriously, even if all you do is wash your damn hands, but I think I speak for everyone when I say that this cannot be over quick enough.

Meanwhile, the shop is open and my neighbors are loving the soundtrack coming from my house. Whether it’s a concrete saw ripping apart my front porch, the circular saw cutting away at home modifications, or the air compressor and the air ratchet, impact gun and the occasional bomb blast of bad words when I open yet another knuckle, it’s a symphony of noise at BangShift Mid-West. Tractors are tilling up dirt for the garden, hammering can be heard as I’m laying all sorts of flooring…nothing out of the normal here.

But what about out there? Far as I can tell, I’m pretty sane in my retreat from humanity. But you and I know that not everybody is “sane” about this. So our question of the day to you, readers: what are you doing to keep yourself busy while you shelter in place? We aren’t sure what to expect…YouTube gave us this gem, a former SEMA show truck that’s now on…well, um…okay, WTF was the plan here, anyways? Running over the hordes of zombies as you raided grocery store after grocery store?
