Getting back to normal

 - I think! 

I listed 10 things last night but about 4 of them got taken off - Ebay's cracking down on medical stuff so the bonanza of the medical place is over. Not that I won't keep checking it, though, as I get non-banned things like computer software and packing stuff from there. 

I woke up at about a quarter to 3. I packed 6 things, 5 of them in tortilla boxes I got from behind Baja Fresh. Those are really useful boxes and I try to get all I can. 

There was no food drop so I didn't have to worry about taking tons of cans over to Tom's place. Food stamps are going back to pre-pandemic (or probably a bit worse) levels so tons of people are being cut off or are having their allotments decreased, say from $200 a month to $25. So maybe someone who needs those cans of food more are picking them up, and good for them. Tom's got a job and doesn't need the food that badly. 

I stopped by the veggie dumpster and picked up some apples and peppers and took those over to Tom's. He was busy "I have to keep tapping on my computer for a while". So I went on over to FedEx and dropped my packages off, and picked up a few things behind H Mart. Namely, a package of shrimp tempura and two little tubs of this "Kaukauna" cheese spread. 

I also took a steel chair that's been behind Baja Fresh forever, along with some guy's stash of stolen bikes/parts and other stuff. Mr. Bum can just sit on a milk crate like a normal person. 

I went back over to Tom's and gave him the chair and the cheese spread. He was overjoyed. He wanted a steel chair he could chain up outside, and as for the spread, his wife will love it, he said. "Europeans love spreading stuff on crackers". We hung out and talked while he peeled and sliced up apples and I ate some of his raw peanuts, tossing some to the crows also. 

I got back here, stopping at a couple of places for packing foam, then loaded up a box of stuff I can't sell on Ebay any more and went and dumped it in the medical stuff dumpster, where I'd gotten the stuff in the first place. Then I got back and loaded up more stuff, scrap wood and junk, and ran that load over and dumped it. 

OK enough Mr. Neat for tonight, I decided, and got back in here and settled in for the night. I feel like I'm finally getting back to normal.
