Thank you for all your prayers and gifts.
We were able to close on a home late afternoon today. It has been a grueling week with no complaints. Just a few frustrating moments where we all came back together. God has been so good through His people, many of them from this forum. We can never thank you enough
We have a long way to go. It’s good news we don’t have to move anything, but difficult to imagine we don’t have simple things like a drill or box cutter, much less beds, couches, and a TV. All in time I suppose.
Thank you for kindness.

Great to hear, Jeremy.
I'll just say: share the GoFund link with friends and family.
You never know who will give. Great Americans want to help.

I am trying to find a Milwaukee Bundle to get started again. I had Hercules before, but I figure just go with Milwaukee. So many more tool options.
If anyone can suggest a good starting point BUNDLE let me know. Memorial Day coming up so could wait for more secondary, but primary basic tools for interior home.
I can’t read pages of posts. I’m barely surviving every day, so if I’m asking too much for a few basic posts then I get it, but I won’t be able to do it and will just have to make a guess and go.
I need to know stuff like do I just go with M18 fuel? Any bundles worth buying?

I usually see good deals on Home Depot deals of the day or week.

I don’t have any specific deal recommendations, but I’d stick with the Fuel option (whether M12 or M18). There are several advantages to the Fuel lineup, and it’s all I buy these days, unless there’s no Fuel option. I personally prefer most things in M18, but some things are only available in M12.
We moved into our new place in Jan. (obviously not the same thing) if I needed it now, starting over, buy it once I’d start here for ~1,500

Bit gimmicky but the off set and right angle attachments are great and not every hole needs a 1/2 hammer drill and it’s super light.

To start over, M18 fuel and be done.
Great news on securing a home base buddy!

It's a really nice home base. We close August 28. I hope all goes well. I need to buy tons of stuff.
Stick with HD or a reputable retailer with a physical location. WAY too many scams and chinesium knockoffs when you go online sale through anything but a retailer with a physical location. That includes things like Amazon where fakes seem to be high-quality and sold through their sites...
But I do buy a bunch of my Milwaukee from HD online without a concern - and usually get it quick delivered from the local store (same day or next day).
If it looks too good, stop and spend more to know it's from Milwaukee.
I've also done the same and dove into the Milwaukee family, M12 & M18.
I'm going to go into HD and see if they can cut me some pre-Labor day sales. It would be nice to have a good starter set for around the house.
Giving everything that's going on. I really hope store will give you a deal. Be sure to talk to somebody in charge and not just a floor operator.
So glad you and your family are safe! I always enjoy reading about you updates and insights. Helps to make this world feel a bit smaller at times in a good way through a shared interest.
Take care rebuilding. Amazing to see this community come together. This is a great corner of the internet!
