What mine see in short supply is pet food. There are times one finds one brand, and a few sizes available.

Mine can at least say consumption in mine house is relatively low. Just two people, in too bag a house. While we both have fixed incomes, it is just enough to keep afloat. Unless an unexpected expense pop up, we're in the clear.

Lucky 13...

It's a pity that the shipping costs are so high, otherwise we could help each other. I was just shopping and asked the cashier if she added the date to the bill. 😈 unbelievable and there is no end in sight. you should limit your overall consumption, but if nothing more comes in, what else should you reduce? the prices keep rising, we have the highest inflation for 40 years, only the incomes remain low and so that nothing is left over, we received increases in rent and health insurance yesterday. this will have dire consequences for all of us. 😢

... thank god we have pet food.. my little one 🐱becomes 14 years and eat only fresh cow heart.. is expensiv but with this age i no make experiments.. m' happy for every little part she eat...

Also there are more animals on mine yard, than people. Mine do know more is spent on their feed than us.

Today's shop was very productive, our instructor brought in a manual transmission truck to change it's clutch assembly. It required a removal of the transmission, and disconnection of the drivetrain. There were no obstacles that would stop the replacement. The class made good time with the overall procedure, which covered the subject for the week.

After finishing, a few stayed to use that time for other jobs. The truck also needed a brake job, which required a resurfacing of the front discs. Mine chose to stay for a refresher of the resurfacing machine. In the end, the front discs may hold out for a time, but they will have to be replaced. This experience is a good reinforcement of what mine practiced last semester. Some more practice, an mine think passing a level 2 certification test is doable.

: In the World of California, food prices for the humans has been rapidly increasing since 2019 and the pandemic. But so far, no additional food / grocery increases have been observed since the "Conflict." Petroleum products have increased substantially but more as a result of shutting down several refineries for repairs and also for the reformulation of "Winter gas" to "Summer gas" as required here in our world. I'm sure that repercussions of the "Conflict" will resonate here on our shores in due time. Sunflower oil, rapeseed oil and flour are sure to increase in price. Are there charitable organiZations that can assist with your pet's special needs that can source food for you?

: That sounds very interesting! Brakes and Transmissions and clutches and mechanics are wildly fascinating to me. I only have a basic understanding of the mechanical world such as you would need to know for understanding body mechanics (leverages and motion...)

It would be very cool to earn your Level 2 Certification. Would that mean that you could open your own shop and hang out a shingle and house an apprentice for your Master? Maybe that's not how you do things in your world. In my world a Journey-Level II crafter could house and assist in training an apprentice, although the Master would directly instruct her. (I have 20 apprentices this year, 10 housed here at Healer's Hall, 10 are living off-site at five of the local Level II healers.

: In your world is your government providing supplementary money to help with living expenses due to the Epidemic or the "Conflict?" Here in our world, our King and some of the Princes have sent out large sums of cash called Economic Stimulus. Here in the land of California there is talk of sending out money to help offset the sharp increase of petroleum in recent weeks. Up to 400 to everybody in california, even if they don't drive or have a car. That would be Me and Weldon! Now...what in the world is a little weasel-boy and a little weasel-girl going to do with 800?

Mine think level 2 would be a more marketable skillset, demonstrating knowledge an ability. From what mine know, mastery level comes after several years of experience and certification under various fields. It does require examining and some continuing education.

Nah, mine would rather work on the shop floor, than oversee the daily workload.

Mine should research the process to obtain certification, level two is hands on mine believe.

: In my world, all trades and crafts are based on the Master Apprenticeship system. I wrote it all out once. I can't find it now.

Well, automotive technology is a changing field. From strictly mechanical systems to electric, then a highly electronic and coputerized mashup.

One thing mine been reminded about, recalls the saying "Better have and not need it, than need it and not have it."

...

yes, like for us there is also the animal board, but you only get something there if you already had your animal when you got into the financial help situation... that means that nobody is allowed to ask for help who buys an animal and doesn't have enough money for food.. no matter if you retire or maybe unemployed... 😢

the food banks for us still have supplies for a maximum of 3 weeks, then it's over, because now 80% of the donations go to ukrainians...

I have no sympathy for hamster purchases, but I would advise you to stock up... the export of wheat and products made with it have been stopped by the Kremlin and that is causing a stir.. people are fighting each other in the shops, attacking the cashiers come on, it's really bad... many organic farmers are facing this because they can no longer feed according to the regulations... the prices for bread are utopian... and those who could change something and help are sitting in the Bundestag, ( translator no give a engl. word ) talking and just arguing... they say we don't need to worry, the warehouses are full.. they have no idea what's going on outside, they don't even go shopping themselves...

a wise man once said; all people are the same, only some are more equal...

HI all :) I hope the weekend was good for everyone! We celebrated an unbirthday on Saturday since her birthday is today. I'm going to take the kiddo to a garden center for some new plants and look around :)

Sometimes it is that easy, mine changed out an old canister check valve on a '07 Pontiac G6. And when turned on, the check engine light wasn't on. Mine shouldn't make any conclusions, zo an observation over the nest week is in order.

The prospect of buying mine first truck may be endangered, my settlement check can't be used, while mine awaiting a response from the insurance company. Mine unsure if the vehicle will be available if an when mine have the money.

good to see you..whose non bday was it?

I am heartbroken when ever i sse THIS on a good friends profile

I see that lot on some friends also and it is sad, especially around Lumi time.

It was my friend's Emily's unbirthday on Saturday, today is her actual birthday. My husband works during the week, so we decided to go eat on Saturday. It was a lot of fun :)

Today I took the kiddo to a garden center and walked around admiring the different plants, trees, herbs, and veggies they had up for sale. I decided on Gerbera Daisy and Coreopsis aka Mouse Ear Coreopsis. Both really pretty and they seem easy enough to care for.

hey how you doing my sweets go Kansas Jayhawks

Finally! tomorrow evening mine attending mine first in person meeting with mine congregation. While mine missed the first since the plague began, this is still a welcomed change after two years of bloody isolation and restricted outings.
