Today we are going down to Pacific Science Center to see the King Tut exhibit. When it leaves here on January 6, it goes back to Egypt never to be seen in the US again. I can hardly wait! I've loved archaeology for a long time and to see stuff from Tut's tomb is just the best thing.
We leave Friday for a long weekend up at Mount Vernon Thousand Trails. Even if it should suddenly decide to snow, it should not impact us too much there. If it does, tough! There will be enough food to stay a day or two longer as we have a cache of freeze-dried meals in the motorhome, just waiting for water and heat.
Some of you know that I've been experimenting with meals in jars made from freeze-dried and dehydrated foods. We've investigated MRE's and commercial pre-packaged meals (like Mountain House brand) and discovered they are not made for diabetics or overweight people. So now we are thinking about using our vacuum sealer to make our own bagged meals from recipes we know we can eat. I'll try to find time to make up some bags for this weekend, but with Tut and the refinance appraiser coming tomorrow am, I don't know if I'll have that time. I have much to do today.
Our little Washington outpost of the family had a great Christmas together. We hope you and your families also had great Christmases. Next year will be upon us in days, and I hope 2013 turns out to be a lucky year. If not, see you at the bottom of the fiscal cliff!

Ah the family Preppers. MRE's, yup you're having a great time!
Well, we did go over the fiscal cliff but on a bunge cord. We didn't die from the impact but we'll all see less money, substantially less money in our wallets. It's smoke and mirrors. No real issues were dealt with. We had a congressional can kicking. 60 days from now we face the debt ceiling again. Tax and Spend, that's the answer. Phooey.
Inappropriate comment.
Some day in the next four years you will come to me and tell me that I had been right all along.
uh-huh
Feeling any twinges yet?
