I just picked up 600lbs of organic hard wheat and have stacks of mylar bags, O2 absorbers and 5 gallon buckets, and would like to start packaging it all up, but I'm in the middle stages of a cold.

Should I wait a week to get rid of the cold? Or would I be OK to just go ahead now?

The wheat is sitting in the back of my car as I don't have room for both the buckets and the wheat sacks, so I really want to get this all packaged up.

Thanks

I wouldn't think there would be a huge rush with your wheat...I vote for you to get well and take care of yourself, then pack it away in a few days

Get well first, not because you might contaminate the food stocks (cold viruses don't last very long outside of a host; sealed in a bag and bucket, they'd cease to be viable in a matter of days) but because if you try to work while you're sick you'll be using energy your body needs to fight off the cold and you'll just prolong the infection, if not make it worse.

I'd definately wait. It's not going to do you any good to put out the effort while you're sick and it's not going to hurt the wheat to wait till you're well.

Your cold won't affect the wheat. Do what's comfortable to you with the cold.

IF you want to work a little everyday wear a N95 mask and disposable gloves If your concerned about contamination...Hope u get well soon.

Probably wont hurt the food, but why risk it?

Thanks for the advice....I'll just take it easy and wait out the cold.

Take it easy instead.
1. Pay the bills
2. File your taxes
3. Send your ex some flowers
4. Load some ammo
5. Send a small donation to a politician you disagree with
6. Send FX John a hand written note saying that he was right
7. Tell that telemarketer to stop by
8. Go to work but follow the boss around all day

Get well soon!
