 Okay, I know I haven't made any videos in a while and There's a bunch of reasons I've tried to make a few lately. Hey for a lot of people in cities You've got less to do because you're stuck in your house But for people living outside of cities often they have more to do because I can't go buy food now I can't go to town So I'm I'm on whatever food we've got here and I can get from you know local neighbors who are also growing food There's one little store near here, but other than that. I've been busting my butt planting more food harvesting stuff, you know taking care of food producing plants fishing more just I've just been like working really hard and Yeah And I would take I would definitely take that over being stuck in my house because that's what I'd like to do Anyway, so I guess this whole Corona apocalypse the biggest effect it's had on me is just lit a fire under my butt and Another reason I haven't made any videos Like I leave the house. I have breakfast. I need the house and I get back and it's dark You know like I haven't had time to make videos. I'm just doing this one right now. I'm digging And I started this All right, let me just tell you how it went for me. So when I heard first heard about this virus in China I Was like hey family, let's take this opportunity to do a trial run Apocalypse scenario, you know just to see how Prepared we are so for a month You know, we kind of locked ourselves in and we're basically quarantining ourselves and then They actually started quarantining everyone At that point I was like, oh crap. I need to go buy some food Because we'd already been doing it for a month. So I got some food. We're okay for a while and luckily I've been you know Working on more food sources around here. So we're okay But then Other than that Yeah, I've just been I've just been working really hard on Getting us more self-sufficient, which is something I I need to do I need to do that anyway And this pile of rocks here You know, I was thinking they're At first I was thinking oh, I shouldn't I'm not gonna be able to buy any kind of building materials right now So let me just work on other stuff but then I was like out at the little store nearby the other day and I was thinking well, maybe maybe people are stuck with Inventory they cannot load. Let me just check. So I asked the guy Hey, do you do some Santa rocks to sell? He's like, yes, yes, yes, please. So Now to now I'm getting two loads This one and I'm trying to clear space so I can fit another one on top of here. I'm spreading it out And so apparently there are people around who are just sitting on Stuff they're trying to sell so hopefully this helps them a little bit Definitely helps me because now I can figure out something to build Stuff What else is going on? I've just been working really hard. I've been trying not to eat too much because usually when I work really hard I just eat a ton, but I've been trying to be more efficient and Most of the time I'm in the shade right now. I just got too hot from unloading all this stuff. I Took my shirt off and I'm out in the sun, which I shouldn't really be doing but Five more minutes and I'll be out of here Anyway So right now. I'm just trying to be efficient not eat all our food not get too skinny Hopefully I'm getting too skinny yet Think I'm all right Yeah, I'm just working hard All right, I gotta go finish this What is that? Dude, is that a rock? That is awesome. Wait a second. Oh no, I dropped it in the water again Oh, yeah, I was just cleaning it off just cleaning it off, right? That's dirtier dude, that is a rock that is awesome. Oh, I gotta show the kids this That is totally a rock Cool rock All right, maybe I can do something useful with this video because now I've got all these evenings open because I finished the video game I was working on oh Please excuse the sound of the big fan all the big fan feels good right now So there were two things I wanted to do this year that have been disrupted by the corona apocalypse and One of them is I wanted to start dating again Which I've not done in quite some time and the other one is I wanted to start actually actively recruiting Neighbors who could move down here, you know make a cool neighborhood a cool cool little community, right? Preferably, I mean just cool people but hopefully some people who are into inventions I can share ideas with the blah blah blah, you know, you know where I'm going with this All right, so let me go through these things real quick first thing So I wanted to start dating again So let me back up a little bit for like the four people who don't know this So I have kids with a young lady and we did that as Platonic friends just because everything logistically worked out well and We both wanted to raise kids in a similar way and it worked out very well And we call we always kind of had in the back of her head the idea that well Maybe we'll grow together and become more than friends But you know in the last couple years has become clear that no, we're just happy being friends We don't want to do anything else because then we just get frustrated frustrated with each other We're good just as friends. So And everything is good there everything is totally good there But you know, I would like to have someone with whom I am more than just friends Like I have to play video games by myself. Who's gonna play video games with me in the evenings? Not that that's a requirement. It's just an example so anyway, I Started dating a little bit at the beginning of the year and then everything got shut down But so at this point if there's anyone out there a young lady I like girls not guys if there's a young lady out there who might be interested in this guy I'll leave my email down there and just send me a message and introduce yourself and say hi Maybe we can talk about stuff and maybe it'll go into nowhere, but you know, maybe don't go somewhere This feels totally weird talking about this in a video because it is way outside the subjects. I normally get into But hey, grown apocalypse is upon us No screwing around. All right. The other thing is I want it. I want a more actively recruit People who might want to be neighbors who might want to live kind of this sort of lifestyle off grid self-sufficient kind of stuff growing food, you know making inventions whatever and You know, I've kind of passively done this over the years like I'll get spontaneous messages from people who are like Hey, you know, can I come check it out and then you know I've had a little bit of success with that but now I want to actually actually actively start doing it And I was building a guest house for people to come and stay for a while But then the crown apocalypse thing started and I kind of put that aside because I was like dude The thing's gonna be empty because no one can travel Although I do have a place that people could stay if someone wanted to come stay for a while and check it out But this is all for future anyway because right now no one can travel So maybe this is the perfect time To discuss such things So if you maybe like seriously, maybe Want to You know talk about moving to the area Send me your message again. I'll put my email down here and we can talk about it and I'll probably have some follow-up videos to this Based on questions people ask Um, yeah You know, there is one other thing that's kind of been Disrupted by this corona apocalypse I was gonna shave my beard like months ago because you know at this point it starts getting in my mouth And just chewing on it chewing on it all the time and it gets in food and stuff Um, so I don't usually let it get this long, but then I was like, oh, it's apocalypse I gotta have a beard. So I've got a big old beard And crazy hair. My hair is crazy right now. Okay But I think I'm gonna keep going with that for a while Okay, with any luck somewhere between Getting some neighbors or a girlfriend or something Someone's gonna come and play video games with me on my big screen with my fancy controllers. Oh, it's so fun How can you not want to come play video games in the middle of the wilderness? Oh, so nice. Oh and the rock with the hole in it right now my one-year-old's got it He is Frodo and that is the one ring You taking the ring to murder? They were all saved How's he gonna find his way to murder with that hat on? Legolas Legolas Frodo needs help He's okay. He's having a nap right now, but he's That wasn't the point
