This is a follow-up to my last SitRep…in a way. In July I started feeling a bit off; can’t describe it really, just off. By mid-August I knew something was wrong but just couldn’t put my finger on it. Then late-August I wrote the article “I’m done with it!” Early in September I felt kinda burned-out, off my game, a bit grouchy if you asked my wife. So, for the last 3 – 4 weeks I’ve backed away from the news and current events…for the most part. I really concentrated on getting a long list of “to-do’s” done here on the glamstead.

Yeah, I did my research for the SitRep yesterday and a couple posts before; but, I stayed far away from current events compared to what I use to. Last week on Monday I planted 13 pine trees, Tuesday I planted twenty-four 1/2-gal Buffalo grass plugs and twenty-five pint Buffalo grass plugs, Wednesday I planted 2 larger pine trees, Thursday I fertilized and watered them in really well…again. Last Friday I babysat our new older 100# German Shepard / Anatolian Shepard mix while my wife got a new car stereo installed at Best Buy and had a girl-day with our neighbor. It was a good week.

What does any of that have to do with anything?

Let me digress for a minute. Let me make this simple…the world has gone to shit crap. The economy is in the tank and probably can’t recover. The political divide in the country has reached the violence stage…including multiple assassination attempts on a Presidential candidate. We have been invaded by millions and millions of criminals including violent gang members, Muslim terrorists, Chinese military age men, and people from cultures that are completely incompatible with western values. Crime and violence in the country has skyrocketed and touches every aspect of American life. And worst of all…the US federal government is behind almost all of it, and directly or indirectly responsible. Plain and simple…the global elites with their globalist authoritarian agenda are winning.

Oh sorry, there is also the very real threat of a direct war with Iran…and an already existing war between Iran and Israel. Oh sorry, and the on-going war between Ukraine/NATO/USA and Russia. Oh sorry, and now the potential crippling of the US economy by a dock worker’s strike. Odd, all of that happening right before a Presidential election that is anything but free and fair. Hummmmm, I wonder about that timing…right before the election?????

And quite honestly I am tired of writing about it. I feel there is little if anything I can write about regarding current events that can add to what you already know…or that would make any difference to you. And…it is extremely depressing researching all the different current event topics because it is coming at us almost by the hour now. And…there is not a single group, a single person, a single entity that is doing anything to improve it…or even trying to slow it down from getting worse…that can actually do so.

I find that working every day to improve the glamstead or helping others is the only thing that keeps me balanced. What I did enjoy immensely was the post, with video, I did on the water tank install way back in June. That was really fun to do! I am not sure how helpful it was to folks, but I sure enjoyed it.

I have reviewed the articles/posts on the website that I have put up over the last 10 years and I honestly don’t know what else I can share with you. I have covered every aspect of prepping that I can think is important. I have gone into detail on every important aspect of prepping that makes sense…and I don’t want to just repeat myself for the sake of postings.

So, if I can’t really come up with new material for prepper articles and writing about current events is a waste of time…what do I write about for you?

Granted, there have been times I’ve written an article just for my own purposes, usually to get something off my chest or to make a point. But those were far and few between for the most part.

So here’s my dilemma; 1) write current event articles that you already are aware of giving little to no additional useful information other than my opinion, 2) write repetitive and useless prepper articles give you no useful additional knowledge, 3) write posts (maybe produce videos) about what we are doing on the glamstead (i.e. gardening, solar, water systems, orchards, compost, etc.) 4) or, just wait till something comes along worth writing about regardless of the subject. Well, I guess there could be another option…just let the website coast along with nothing new at all.

What do you guys think? I am serious, I need your input and feedback on what you would like to see here. I know your time each day is limited and valuable…so I don’t want you to waste it here with little to no value as to what you are reading of mine.
