Well it looks like this weekend into Weds gonna be quite wet. We might finally be "vindicated" for towing out of our spot to this temp spot at the top of the hill. I am not hoping it floods down there since we were the only ones to move.. don't wanna wish bad on those (unintelligent) people.. but if it does man will they be hating life. At least some of them actually think it'd be on the landlord to replace their rigs. Foolish thinking. #TrailerParkLife

The Great Perhaps (#PC, #SteamDeck)
First game completion on the Deck. Assume the role of an astronaut recently awakened from cryosleep, returning to a destroyed Earth to attempt to right the wrong using a lantern that enables you to time travel.

Neat little puzzle platformer with a cool time travel mechanic. Interesting to the end, which is a bit of a twist. I had to map a couple of keys and enable Proton Experimental to get it to work properly on Deck. #CoSoGaming​

Ok, major hurdle out of the way. Partner searched around and found a small biz towing company willing to come move us to another spot for $75. Other quote she got was $450, FFS. And they knew the deets, 300 feet max, no public roads. So now the prep needs to get done. Most will happen tomorrow cause 75% of what needs to be taken down so it won't fall down is in the bedroom. Feels good, man. Rather move and look stupid that it didn't flood than stay and be fucked if it does. #TrailerParkLife

Next big storm rolls in late Tues/early Weds, so we have today and tomorrow to figure out if 1) anything will be done about the cracked wall on the creek 2) the "several additional inches" will be spread out over enough time to NOT threaten us with a catastrophic flood in here. Cause if the answers are "nope" and "nope" we need to hire a tow to get the RV to a spot at the top of the hill. Much cheaper than replacing almost everything we own. #TrailerParkLife

Spent today cleaning up the mess around here. Tore down the shredded tarp. Put up shade cloth stuff I got spring 2021 when I took down the failing vinyl awning. Partner went and bought an 8x11ft tarp to go over the shade cloth at our front door area so it'll be mostly dry right there the next maybe 10 days of rain. Rearranged storage shelves, potted plants. My hands hurt. Tomorrow we'll do some "in case it floods" prep, pack up things we want to save so we can get em out fast. #TrailerParkLife

We survived the storm, but the tarp I used to replace the vinyl awning a year ago didn't. Split down the middle seam and shredded in the wind. 14mils heavy duty my ass. Sigh. Already ordered a canvas one that costs twice as much so maybe it'll last 2 years.

Forecast says this the only dry day for a week, so I guess I have to hope the shitlord owner has a plan to shore up the wall in the other corner/it doesn't rain like it did yesterday. I'm not really optimistic about either. #TrailerParkLife

I am now currently maniacally refreshing the area radar forecast because I have been informed that a tree fell in the other corner of the park, hitting the wall and damaging it. I went and looked, didn't see what I've been told but I didn't get a close look. So yeah, if that's true, too much rain = too much runoff = creek rising onto the wall = ... 🌊 🌊?? There'd be no time to tow out esp since NYE, so we'd be stuffing the car with clothes/electronics AFAP and kissing home goodbye.😬

Well that was "fun". Rain eased enough the pumps caught up with the flooding in here and now there's just some puddles. The runoff creek behind the wall is now back down to the dirt bank so it's not pushing water under the wall into the spot next door. Looking like the weather patterns aren't exactly following forecast, the storms are stalling on the way here so somebody else is getting more water than they expected, heh. This pattern holds we should be ok, but we'll see.

So here's a couple pics from about an hour ago. Rain has eased a bit since and will be intermittent today so I think the pumps here should keep up with the flooding enough we won't be in real trouble. Happy fucking New Year!

Well today is def the heaviest rain this week. There's flood warnings for the area, but mostly applies to the rivers/streams.

So far locally, there's some puddling around our end of the RV park. Haven't checked the "creek" out back yet...but I'm about to go out and assess some things, looks like the drain needs clearing at least. So I'll have a look over the wall while I'm out there. Gonna have to count as my exercise today since I won't be able to use my EQ in this rain. #TrailerParkLife

Managed to sneak in an hour on the stationary bike in between storm cells today. Rest of the day was spent messing with the failing storage HDD some more, followed by some #gaming on the #SteamDeck, then some #WoW to finish the evening. .. I'll prob play something on the Deck before bed, lol.

So far the rain hasn't been strong enough for us to really worry about flooding in the trailer park.. yet. It also seems that all the repairs I've done on this RV/home are holding.. 🤞

Spent most of the last couple days dealing with a mildly failing HDD (storage, thankfully). Been copying off what it will let me to my 8tb ext and deleting stuff. I'm getting close to having just the stuff that fails to move but still works (mostly music at this point). Prob try a clone, run disk checks to see if I can get the rest off before I pull it for a replacement. Least I've had the #SteamDeck to entertain me while I waited out long copy times lol. Now to play a couple hours of #WoW

Stupid Winter Steam Sale. How dare Valve take my money. I gotta say tho, 22 games for 30 USD is a pretty good deal. Yes, they are all already installed on my #SteamDeck. #CoSoGaming

Big storm today. Lots of rain and wind. Gotta hope the trailer don't either float or blow away. Well it won't blow away. .. probably.. It's less likely than the floating, anyway. Need to keep an eye on the runoff "creek" behind us and hope the park fixed the wall where it was broken or whatever happened that allowed us to almost flood during the huge storm last year. Foot away from water inside. This thing is a POS, but if's still worth a little something, unless it floods. #TrailerParkLife

Happy Whatever you're celebrating today, if you are. Have a good Sunday if you aren't. #HappyHolidays

Finished #Portal again. Plays great on the Deck. Still Alive is still fun to listen to. Deck has some really good speakers for a handheld. Impressive spatial sound. Also tested Haven Moon, a Myst-like. Labeled "untested" for the Deck, but I didn't have any issues in the 45 minutes I played it. I like my new toy. I'm actually debating installing #WoW or #LoTRO (labeled playable for the Deck lol) for shits and giggles. #SteamDeck #CoSoGaming

Been playing with the Steam Deck. Installed 5 of the 27 Deck verified games in my library. 2 of them shouldn't be verified lol. Controls ain't working for Pid, Hamilton's Great Adventure crashes after 1 min. Portal works great, naturally. Deck is a nice device. I'ma enjoy messing around with it. #SteamDeck #CoSoGaming

Well, that was a short lived reign as Winner of Xmas. @StonePiggy surprised me with this today. #SteamDeck #Xmas #CoSoGaming
