In my day to day job I haven't been quite quitting. I still do my job. Yet I have no desire to advance, or increase the things I do. I do a lot already. More than someone in my position normally does in other companies. We are a small and tight team and each of us do far more than we should. It turns out this leaves us vulnerable to other problems. What happens when one of the important people to your team is removed for stupid reasons rather than accidental ones?

It is this thinking that was the seed of this post.

As to what we can do. I am still trying to figure that out myself.

I did move my family out of the city over a year ago and I am trying to get more of my own food and hopefully soon chickens going but with a 40+ hour a week job, and on call 24x7 every other week it is hard to motivate myself. I also haven't been super successful in motivating my other family members to push the projects to completion.

I do feel like I am in a safer place.

I am just trying to plan for as many contingencies I can.

The way things are going I kind of see us entering a new dark ages of sort. If this ends up true then my goal will be to try to get some of my progeny to live to reach the hopeful other side of the darkness and perhaps preserve what ideas and knowledge I can.

I write a lot. I share that hoping it will add to the world.

Yet if something happens to this network, electricity, etc. The vast bulk of my important works as far as I see them are GONE. POOF.

It does make the ancients seem wise for putting so many things into stone.

If there is time, and there may not be I may try to compile some ideas I've had and perhaps others into a limited print book that I at least can give to my progeny. That way I don't just POOF disappear if my digital footprint disappears.
