Status: We are sheltering place with plenty of food at home, we have enough produce until the next planned trip to the store on Monday. I am teleworking in the mornings.
Plans: Make a cup of coffee and figure it out…. LOL
Narrative: It’s 04:00 and I’m up, so I made a Belgian waffle with a glass of milk. The coffee pot is ready, but I’m not quite there yet.
We’ve had a hard time getting Multicast packets across two routers, I need to find out why as soon as I can this morning. The keyword “Multicast” also broke the IPV4 route statement in the routers.
Highest priority was to get the data running between two 1921 routers, we managed to do that today. Secondary is to research the “Multicast” keyword on the IP Route statement. (It shouldn’t have broken the IPV4 route statement.)
We received freeze dried meals today from various sources as a emergency contingency if we are desperate. We’ll add rice to stretch one packet into a day’s calories.
It’s a beautiful, bright sunny day so I let the 2x 100W solar panels run the refrigerator today. They can support the fridge from about 9AM to 5PM. (With sufficient battery and inverter.)
We made some sweet potatoes and took a meal to our friends that have the virus today. We were super careful to wear gloves and to not touch anything. They stayed inside until we left.
I had to bag all of the recyclables so that the driver can pick them up without them blowing out of the container and making a mess. The one caveat is that our mail will tell them who’s stuff is in the bag if we tried to recycle something not on the list.
BTW, that pair of strippers/crimpers is probably 40 yrs old
Worked on one of my NodeMCU boxes tonight. I added wires onto the relay outputs that will be run to a separate box that provides power and distribution for the controlled items. Since they can be either 12 or 24 volts the power was not run into this box for that purpose. I am half tempted to use a metal box for all the connections to keep the moisture out of the three other boxes. (Wireless access point, NodeMCU, FlightAware Raspi that are all plastic.)
Prayers: This is my list of prayers for Today.
Thank you lord for the gifts you have bestowed on our family, we are all in great shape during this trying time.
Lord I thank you for the Mueller’s, they are great servants for our church family. I pray for the that they may not succumb to the disease that is rapidly approaching our community.
Lord I pray for my daughter that you would protect her as she works diligently taking care of those assigned to her and her coworkers. I pray that she does not carry this disease home to her brother’s children that are sheltering in place at home.
Lord I pray for Deb, she has been a good servant for a great many years to our fellow parishioners. Please protect her home and provide her husband the wisdom to make good choices during this trying time.
Lord I pray for my Aunt in Florida that she be wise when she is out in the community. I pray that she protect herself as best she can from bringing the virus home to my mother who would surely succumb to the disease.
I pray for my mom in Pahrump Nevada, I pray that her friends take her under their care and to help her as much as they are able.
Thank you lord for these technical solutions that have allowed us to communicate with our church leadership and receive their guidance in these disturbing times.
Lord I pray for wisdom on how best to prepare ourselves and to assist others who have fallen ill during this virus outbreak.
Thank you lord for the friends that provided us the reassurance and counseling when we lose our way.
Help me not to get over involved emotionally with all the news about this virus being brought into our homes. Let our faith in your word provide us the strength to have a positive outlook when we communicate with our families.
Help us by putting those in our congregation who need help in our path so that we might provide some assistance.
Thank you lord for my wife, our home and all the other things you’ve provided us. We will do our best to show our gratitude by sharing these gifts you’ve bestowed onto our doorstep.
Tomorrow: Friday, I haven’t figured out Thursday yet….
