30 April 2020, A day in Progress

Status: Sheltering in place, we’ve got plenty of food and supplies. We’ve not gotten our stimulus check, but I did manage to get our checking Acct added to their website this morning.

Plans: Work, Groceries, Walk.

  • 03:46 Added checking acct to the USG website for Stimulus Check.
  • 06:00 Check in with the team.
  • 09:00 Put away groceries.
  • 11:00 Checked out of work and signed my timecard for the day.
  • 11:15 We went to deliver a gift to a friend, check our PO box and get some liquor.
  • 12:30 We walked around the block, it almost rained. (Just a few sprinkles.)
  • 13:30 I went down for a much needed nap.
  • 15:30 ordered the TPM sensor for the Ford Focus (Spare Tire)
  • 17:00 had dinner, brought in the mail and checked our neighbors back yard.
  • 18:00 Writing in my blog.
  • 19:00 put my latest Raspberry Pi in a FLIRC case to keep it cool.
  • 21:00 writing the SD card for the Raspi.

Narrative: Yesterday I tried to get the status of my Stimulus check and I bombed the street address and got locked out. This morning I entered the correct address after downloading my 2018 return. The Gov said they didn’t have a checking acct for me because I deferred the money until this year, but they did have my correct address. So as of today they hadn’t mailed me a check or made a direct deposit. I did a little hunting yesterday and got a little worried. There are a number of people that their check was redirected (Stolen) by thieves who got the common information from public sources or stolen data. In my case they would not have known all the details. Hopefully we’ll get it soon…

Feelings:

Tomorrow: Last day at work for the foreseeable future, retire at last.
