Dollar Tree was the usual first stop. The drink product mix is shifting, but stock levels remain excellent. The online price of a 2x4x8 stud at Home Depot is still $3.85. Aldi was last. We found everything we wanted, but my preferred chocolate has gone up again to $2.69. Staple prices were: Bread (20 oz. white): $1.39 Eggs: $4.97 (limit 2) Whole milk: $2.84 (-) Heavy cream: $5.29 OJ: $4.09 Butter: $3.75 Bacon: $3.99 Potatoes: $4.39 Sugar: $2.99 Flour: $2.35 80% ground beef: $4.59 Untainted regular gasoline at Weigels is still $3.59/gallon.

Operation Independence Update on the GSD weekend! Huge thanks to Valerie, Lynne, Tracy, Steve, Bryan, Tactical, and Knighthawk—and of course Bob, who we tried to kill. It was a solid weekend of getting things done and building community. Main Topic of the Day: Busting Through Analysis Paralysis I Why We Get Stuck in Analysis Paralysis Fear of making the wrong move or wasting resources Drowning in too much information and too many choices Perfectionism in disguise—waiting until it's "just right" Pressure from external voices: what you should do versus what you want to do II How to Align Your Efforts for Real Progress Start by documenting where you spend your time Revisit your vision and purpose Know your own wiring—planner, doer, thinker? Identify leverage points that'll ease other areas III Tips & Tricks to Break Free (My3Things Method + More) Use the My3Things Method—3 high-impact tasks per day Do the worksheet—focus and prioritize Join our communities—get support and ideas Call a friend who can help you think clearly Pay for help if it moves you forward Break things down to minimum viable steps (An American Homestead story) Ask if you're delaying because you don't actually want it Try body doubling—just work alongside someone Just do one thing now—progress over perfection Reset your brain—take a walk, listen to music, work out And above all: Commit and don't look back. Nothing replaces just deciding to move. Sign up for the weekly mail – Stay updated on events, products, and local opportunities.
